  Chapter 335 333 [The Northern Expedition is coming] (Add more updates for the penguin boss)

  Fang Yizhi was thrown to the Department of Public Works and served as Song Yingxing's assistant.

  Song Yingxing was also inspired by Zhao Han in physics, but he was too busy with official duties, so he was not as active in researching physics as Fang Yizhi.

  The two of them stay together, and they should be able to collide with each other to spark some sparks.

  Regarding physics, Zhao Han can remember at most his junior high school knowledge, but he has long forgotten most of his high school physics, and he can’t even remember a single high school physics formula.

  He can only inspire and teach the methodology of studying natural science.

  Fang Yizhi is in a state of madness, studying mechanics all day long. In less than half a month, this guy made his own dynamometer and asked craftsmen to make it.

  Song Yingxing expressed displeasure, saying that Fang Yizhi was not good as an assistant, and that he was distracted by various errands during working hours.

  Zhao Han simply established specialized institutions, namely the Imperial Academy, the Academy of Mathematics, and the Academy of Physics.

  This Hanlin Academy is not that Hanlin Academy.

  The Imperial Academy of Ming Dynasty belongs to the central senior cadre preparation agency.

   Zhao Han's Hanlin Academy is purely an academic institution.

  Research on the theory of Datong, compile the correct pronunciation of Datong, determine the standard characters and dictionaries in the future, even recompile the textbooks for primary and secondary schools, or compile the "History of Ming Dynasty" after the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

  Officials of the Imperial Academy are not allowed to participate in politics, let alone be transferred to official positions with real power!

  Hanlin, Mathematics, and Physics are temporarily under the direct jurisdiction of Zhao Han.

  The School of Physics is the most shabby, only Fang Yizhi is alone.

  Zhao Han ordered him to select 20 students, and while helping Fang Yizhi to do experiments, he also learned from Fang Yizhi. These students are not paid, but they are provided with food and housing.

  Nanjing Xu Guogong has so many houses, which will be distributed to various institutions in the future. For example, Wanzhu Garden is arranged to be the site of the School of Physics. The environment is absolutely elegant and the researchers are guaranteed to be happy physically and mentally.

   "General Town!"

Another day, Fang Yizhi took out the schematic diagram, pointed to the drawing and said: "The object itself remains stationary because of the balanced force. Take this square inkstone as an example. It has the gravity of falling itself, and the desktop gives it upward force." Lifting force. When the lifting force is the same as the gravity, the inkstone can remain still. Just like people stepping on the mud, it will sink due to gravity. The deep footprints are the gravity of the person. When the mud is stepped on , the lifting force on the ground can counteract the force of gravity, and the person will not be able to stand still.”

  Zhao Han asked with a smile: "So, what general (law) do you come up with?"

  Fang Yizhi replied: "Everything thinks of tranquility. Any object, when it receives a balance force or no external force, it must be still."

  Zhao Han crumpled Fang Yizhi's drawing into a ball and threw it out casually: "What kind of force did this paper ball bear?"

  Fang Yizhi redraws the picture, thinks carefully, and constantly writes the force: "It is subject to the force of the general town's throwing and its own gravity. When these two forces combine, the paper ball will fall forward."

"Really?"

Zhao Han took out another piece of paper, unfolded it without crumpling it into a ball, and threw it out, asking: "These two pieces of paper are equal in weight, and the force I throw is also similar. Why is one thrown farther and the other thrown away?" close?"

  Fang Yizhi thought hard.

  Zhao Han picked up a book, used it as a fan, and fanned Fang Yizhi: "Did you feel it?"

   "Wind." Fang Yizhi replied.

  Zhao Han asked: "Your hair moves with the wind, and what kind of force does it bear?"

  Fang Yizhi's eyes widened: "The wind is the movement of the air, and the air is the real thing!"

  Fang Yizhi's understanding of wind in "Little Knowledge of Physics" is: yin and yang are driven by each other to move air, and ventilation can make wind.

  Zhao Han smiled and approved.

  Fang Yizhi added to the drawings again, saying: "The paper ball still has the resistance of air. When the resistance is balanced with the throwing force of the general town, the paper ball will no longer...not right!"

   Jumping from Newton's first principle to Newton's second principle suddenly, Fang Yizhi was stunned instantly. He felt that this problem was very complicated.

  Zhao Han said with a smile: "I don't want to think about this for now. If my desk is extremely smooth and there is no resistance at all, will it stop after pushing the inkstone?"

  Fang Yizhi thought seriously, shook his head and said, "No, the inkstone will move forward."

   "Then your previous conclusion is wrong. Things don't stay still, but keep their original state unchanged." Zhao Han said.

  Fang Yizhi nodded: "Indeed."

  Zhao Han said with a smile: "How about calling this representation of things 'inertia'? The nature of inertia."

   "Yes."

  Fang Yizhi felt that this issue could be further studied, and he cupped his hands and said, "General Town, I will take my leave first, and I will sort out the cause and relationship."

   "Go." Zhao Han felt relieved.

  When Fang Yizhi walked to the door, Zhao Han suddenly shouted: "If you make any more achievements, you can invite people from the School of Mathematics to visit the School of Physics. Maybe there can be more like-minded people."

   "Yes!" Fang Yizhi bid farewell.

  Zhao Han leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind. Physics research finally had practitioners. He believed that if the fire was lit, it would definitely spread.

   It is also time to go to Nanjing. After the summer harvest, troops will be dispatched to Jianghuai. The position of Ji'an is really a bit biased.

  The General Military Mansion also had to be changed, not to mention becoming a king, at least it had to be upgraded to the Governor's Mansion. Zhao Han decided to call himself "Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses".

  This position is on a par with Zhu Houzhao's "Governor of Military Affairs, Mighty General, Chief Military Officer"!

  …

  The 13th year of Chongzhen was destined to be extraordinary.

  The Manchu Qing army has surrounded Jinzhou for half a year, and swaggered to emigrate outside the city to farm.

  Zu Dashou has been sticking to Jinzhou City all along, showing no signs of surrendering.

  How could he surrender?

  The ancestral family has a great career in Liaodong. It can be said that it is the local emperor of Liaodong. Surrender means losing one's own base.

   Unless, ammunition and food are exhausted, there is no way out.

  Beside Jinzhou City, there are Songshan Fort garrisoned by Wu Sangui and Xingshan Fort garrisoned by Liu Zhouzhi.

  Wu Sangui is in a panic now, he only has three thousand soldiers in his hands, and Zu Dashou has been besieged for half a year right under his nose. He kept asking the imperial court for reinforcements, but not only did the imperial reinforcements fail to arrive, but the military pay was also wiped out.

   Throughout Liaodong, Chongzhen sent people one hundred thousand taels of silver.

   It's useless to argue about salary, the court really has no money.

   Liaodong military generals suddenly became loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Alas, if you don't pay the army, you won't give it. The battle still has to be fought, and it is impossible to surrender.

  As long as there is even the slightest hope of becoming the Tu Emperor, who the **** is willing to be a dog for the Manchus?

  East Liaodong has already allowed the establishment of regiment training. Wu Sangui's father, Wu Xiang, is currently serving as the head of the Ningyuan regiment.

  Ningyuan Regiment has more than one training commander, Jin Guofeng is also in this position, and Wu Sangui is applying for this position. Anyway, these Liaodong military generals, facing the arrogance of the Tartars, were all recruiting troops to fight with their own money.

   Once surrendered, they are nothing.

  They don’t take the Ming Emperor seriously, and they don’t want to join the Manchus either. Their own interests always come first.

   When Jinzhou was under siege for half a year, Subbandai (Mongol) who was stationed at the Xingshan Beacon Tower secretly wrote a letter wishing to join the Qing Dynasty with his family.

  Manchu Qing general Ji Erhalang only led 1,500 people to respond, Wu Sangui, Liu Zhouzhi, and Dai Ming found out the news, and a combined force of 7,000 people attacked to intercept. After wanting to win this battle, return to the division and Ningyuan soldiers to attack the Qing army that besieged Jinzhou.

  7,000 Liaodong soldiers raided 1,500 Qing troops, and were defeated miserably.

   At the same time, Nomqi, a Mongolian stationed in the outer city of Jinzhou, quietly wrote a letter to surrender to the Manchus.

  When Zu Dashou heard the news, he led troops from the inner city to the outer city, beheading the Manchu and Qing generals Mu Husa, Jue Luolantai, and Hongke. Outnumbered, Zu Dashou retreated to the inner city, and the Qing army occupied the outer city of Jinzhou.

  The outer city has been occupied, but Zu Dashou is still sticking to the inner city. It looks like he can hold on for at least another half a year.

  Huang Taiji was flustered instead. He didn't dare to consume food like this anymore, so he simply continued to send troops to attack Songshan and Xingshan.

  Wu Sangui had only 4,000 soldiers left, half of them were freshly recruited regiment warriors, who were besieged in Songshan Fort.

  …

  Over there in Hubei.

  Xiangyang mutinied due to lack of pay. The soldiers killed the governor and the general soldier, and they all went to Zhang Xianzhong.

   Zhang Xianzhong then sent his troops to surround Yunyang, the boundary north of the Yangtze River in Huguang, only Yunyang Mansion was not Zhang Xianzhong's territory.

  Henan direction.

  Yang Guozhu, Wang Pu, Zuo Liangyu, and Meng Ruhu are still encircling and suppressing Li Zicheng, saying that they are encircling and suppressing bandits, but more often they are robbing food. If the imperial court can't pay the army, they will starve to death if they don't grab food!

  Not to mention officers, soldiers and bandits grabbing food, Henan is suffering another severe drought this year!

  The people in Henan couldn't survive. Yuan Shizhong, Li Jiyu, Liu Yuchi, Zhu Chengju and others rebelled. He didn't even bother to get a bandit number, and directly used his real name to rebel, and Zhu Chengju was even a member of the Ming clan.

  The whole of Henan is full of rebels in all directions.

  These rebels all follow Li Zicheng as the leader, but in fact they listen to the tune and not the propaganda. They captured the strongholds of the big landlords, formed strongholds one by one to protect themselves, and occasionally attacked each other.

   Unable to suppress thieves anymore, Zuo Liangyu left Henan again, went to Shandong to rob food, and recruited refugees as soldiers by the way.

  Li Zicheng called on all bandits to join forces to counterattack. Yang Guozhu and Wang Pu were defeated and fled, and they were killed when they broke through like tigers.

  Henan has since become the territory of the rebels. Li Zicheng led his troops back to Shanxi, planning to take Shanxi and go straight to Beijing!

  The current situation is changing so fast that it is dazzling to see.

  There is only one real reason: Zhao Han occupied Jiangnan, the salt lords fought in Jianghuai, and the imperial court could not collect taxes and pay military salaries.

  …

   Far away in Europe.

  The British bourgeois revolution officially kicked off this year.

   In fact, it has nothing to do with the bourgeoisie, it is just a by-product of the Thirty Years War.

  Britain has fought wars for decades, and the royal family has gone bankrupt. So they collected taxes crazily, forcing the nobles, merchants, and peasants to their death. The king also took the initiative to provoke religious conflicts, and the whole country was rebelled by a slapstick operation!

  The Thirty Years War is still going on in Asia at this time.

  The Netherlands realized that its army was not good enough, and spent money to hire thousands of Swedish mercenaries this year. Sailing all the way from Europe by boat to attack Portugal's eastern colonies, the main targets were Goa, Ceylon and Malacca.

  As soon as the Portuguese fleet took away 500 Indian horses, the Dutch began to besiege Goa.

   In the future, if Zhao Han wants to continue buying horses, he will probably have to pay heavy taxes to the Dutch, and Malacca will definitely be taken away by the Netherlands.

April.

  500 Indian Warri horses arrived in Shanghai, all of which are strong and healthy horse breeds!

  Unfortunately, more than 30 horses have died during the long-distance transportation by sea.

   Zhao Han came to Nanjing again, the General Military Mansion was renamed the Dudu Mansion, and the entire team moved to Nanjing City.

  Everyone knows what Zhao Han will do next.

  Northern Expedition!

  Northern Expedition!
