Chapter 1087 The Night Before
Industry Department, Council Hall.
This is a building located in the center of the workshop area.
In fact, in order to facilitate the management of the workshop area.
The office of the Industry Department was built in the workshop area.
After receiving Zhao Xu's order, Chen Xu ordered the officials of the Industry Department to call the heads of each workshop.
Soon, the entire council hall was full of people.
When the heads of the official workshops in the workshop area had basically arrived, Zhao Xu sat down on the chair in front of the council hall.
After a moment of hesitation, he said: "At present, all workshops are connected to electricity, and the machines powered by electric motors are also running normally. You have also reported to me that the production efficiency has increased by more than three times. "
"However, although the production efficiency has increased at present, there is one thing that has been improved, but the improvement is not great, that is, the processing accuracy."
The workshop heads heard this and nodded one after another.
They were actually deeply troubled by this problem.
Because the Dasong workshops have all established a production line model of division of labor.
Therefore, many products are produced separately.
For example, the spare parts workshop is responsible for producing parts, which are finally gathered in the assembly workshop for assembly.
At this time, the problem immediately came out.
Due to the accuracy problem, the error of each part may be within the range, but once assembled, the overall error will be large.
To solve this problem, it is necessary to reduce the error of the parts, that is, to improve the accuracy of the overall parts.
Otherwise, it is impossible to manufacture more precise machinery.
"So, next you have to cooperate with each other to improve the precision of the machine tools." Zhao Xu continued, "This matter will be led by the Industrial Department, mobilizing all workshop resources to do it, and the Research Institute will also cooperate with you."
The manufacturing of machine tools is easy, easy, and difficult.
This is easy because there is not much technical content in imitation.
But the difficulty lies in that you can imitate its shape, but not its accuracy.
Even in modern times, many countries have machine tools, but high-precision machine tools are the neck of many countries.
At present, Dasong's industry is indeed improving.
But machine tools are still the most primitive generation, and the accuracy has not completely widened the gap with the West.
Even if electricity is connected, it is only an improvement in efficiency. The slight improvement in precision only comes from the smooth operation of the motor.
If you want to produce industrial products with higher technical difficulty, it is imperative to improve the locomotive.
And the improvement of machine tool precision involves many aspects.
For example, the quality of machine tool castings, the accuracy of bearings and screws, the scale on the guide rail, and even a fixed screw.
Of course, there is another problem, which is the power source. This problem has been solved, that is, electricity.
It is precisely because it involves all aspects that he will call so many workshop heads to let them work together to create a second-generation machine tool that surpasses the first-generation machine tool, so that the overall industrial level of Dasong will be raised to a higher level.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Xu's words fell, and the heads responded one after another.
After instructing this matter, Zhao Xu ordered the workshop heads to go back and prepare.
He took Chen Xu to the Research Institute and let him meet with Wang Chong.
Regarding the machine tool, although the Research Institute has mastered the parameters of the second-generation machine tool, it is difficult for a good cook to cook without rice.
The workshop controlled by the Industrial Department is now rice.
One guide, one work, this machine tool improvement is no longer a problem.
With better machine tools, there will be better machinery in the future. With better machinery, the existing machinery including steam locomotives and steamships can not only be improved in performance, but also further research and manufacture new machinery.
...
Grassland.
While Zhao Xu was busy upgrading the industry after the power was turned on, the war clouds here became more and more dense.
Under the protection of the Lancers, Chang Wei walked around the Khan Court and carefully observed the fortifications of the Northern Di.
At the same time, he confirmed one thing.
The Lancers' reconnaissance was correct. The Northern Di army now had a large number of rifled guns.
Fortunately, Chen Hu did not charge before he came, otherwise there would be a lot of casualties.
However, what was difficult for the Lancers was not a big problem for the infantry of the Central Army.
After all, when the Qinglong Army and the Suzaku Army faced the Western Land Coalition in the south, they still beat them to the ground.
Compared with the well-trained Western Land coalition, the Northern Di are still a little short of their best.
"Counting the days, I'm afraid that Yancheng has already been electrified. Let's take advantage of the excitement and deal with the Northern Di people to liven up the atmosphere." Before returning to the central military camp, Chang Wei looked towards Yancheng, feeling a little itchy.
He really wanted to see the grand scene after Yancheng was electrified.
But compared to the electrification, he chose to lead the troops to the battle.
It was his lifelong wish to eliminate the Northern Di. After this battle, the Northern Di basically withdrew from the grassland.
From now on, the Khan's court of the Northern Di will be the back garden of Dasong.
Chen Hu couldn't help but feel like a cat's claw when he heard this. He said, "General, since you said that, I really want to finish this battle as soon as possible and go back to see it."
"Don't worry, it won't take much time." Chang Wei was very confident before speaking.
Then, he looked at Lu Chang, Bai Shang and Huo An in front of him.
The three of them were gathering together to discuss the coordination issues during the attack.
As Chang Wei finished speaking, the three of them came to Chang Wei.
Bai Shang said, "General, we think we should fight at night and use flares to catch them by surprise."
Although the Beidi people were no strangers to flares because of the Battle of Yongzhou.
This time, the Beidi trench layout had measures to prevent night attacks, such as placing chevaux de frise in front of the trench, tying bells, etc.
But the darkness could still cover them to get closer and avoid being shot by their rifles at a long distance.
"The opposite trench still needs to be dug, and it has to be dug to 30 meters opposite their trench. Their gunpowder cans can only be thrown so far." Huo An said.
During their reconnaissance, two Beidi soldiers fell down while carrying boxes due to mistakes, and a lot of round things rolled out of them.
After identification, they believed that these were gunpowder cans made by the Beidi people imitating their grenades.
Of course, their gunpowder cans do not have the convenience of grenades, but they have to ignite the fuse and then throw them over.
At the same time, due to the low power of gunpowder cans, they can only make them larger, which greatly limits the throwing distance of their gunpowder cans.
"Before charging, let them have a taste of our shells first." Bai Shang chuckled.
Since it is a war, they naturally have to try their best to play to their strengths and hit the opponent's weaknesses.
Chang Wei nodded, and at this moment, the soldiers were digging the soil on the grassland with an engineer shovel each.
When these trenches extend to the front of the Beidi trench, they can start.
At that time, he will put an end to the Beidi who has been rampant in the north of Dasong for more than 300 years!
