Struggle in Russia

Chapter 131: Helpless

骁 Li Xiao is increasingly envious of those who have their own system or old grandfather's traveler colleagues. If you have difficulty finding the system, it is either a lottery or a big gift package. In short, all the problems are solved systematically. The protagonist only needs to be responsible for the process.

But it hurts a lot when he arrives here. It's really nothing to be poor. To develop and grow, we must engage in industry, but we have no technology, no equipment, and no talent. There is a group of old stubborn feudal autocracies who reject new technologies.

怎么 What did Nima let him do? Go and beg for the alms of the aliens or simply jump over a cliff to see the cave with wild grandpa and the secret base of prehistoric civilization?

Please, this book is a serious cross-fiction, not science fiction and fantasy!

Wake up, there is no system! No grandpa! No prehistoric civilization! No aliens!

Nothing at all! Some can only go forward step by step.

骁 Li Xiao sighed, inserted the quill pen in his hand back into the ink bottle, and rubbed his swollen forehead. It is really impossible to step up to the sky, but we must start with the basic work.

骁 Li Xiao knows that there are several major issues before him: equipment issues, talent issues, funding issues, and policy issues.

四个 These four questions are intertwined, and none of them can achieve the purpose he wants.

For example equipment, machine tools, etc. can be bought from the UK. Although British-Russian relations are now very tense, the British have attacked Russia in the newspapers all day long as invaders and robbers (it's not wrong, but this is very gratifying for another more shameless robber).

He also urged the Poles in exile in London to make up all kinds of negative gossip about Russia in the newspapers, discrediting Russia as a wolf's ambitious and greedy barbarian (there is no wrong, but some stories are really compiled)

The relations between Britain and Russia are indeed tense, but the British bourgeoisie has no restraint. As long as they can make money, they don't care whether the Russians are polar bears or cannibals, let alone whether the Poles live in deep waters. That has a relationship with them for a dime. The cute little yellow-orange-oranges have no odor and are extremely fragrant!

This year, money can really buy everything. The problem is that Li Xiao has no money. His whole family is a dilapidated house that has been in disrepair for years and is worth thousands of rubles in cash. At this point of money, let alone buy equipment to set up factories. It is not enough to give a green light to the relevant domestic greedy departments.

Not to mention that even if there is equipment, you have to find qualified personnel. The machine will not start on its own. What the intelligence and automation in the 21st century could not do, even in the 19th century.

骁 Li Xiao needs a large number of qualified workers and technicians. The problem is that such people don't say that Russia does not exist at all, there are very few of them, and the price is not low if they want to ask. And in the long run, it is necessary to train similar talents on a large scale, which also requires money.

And in the current state of Russia, this also has a fundamental conflict with the interests of the noble masters. For those who live on the land, the most precious wealth besides land is the population.

他们 The human resources of Russia are basically monopolized by them. They are reluctant to pay for the serfs to learn technology, and they are not allowed to seek other careers. The serfs are gone. Who will plant them?

In the final analysis, the final root issue is policy. As long as Russia still adheres to the serf system, industrialization is basically impossible.

At the same time, this one was inexplainable to all the tsars of the past. What about Alexander II, who was hailed as the last great tsar, once seemed to have made up his mind to abolish the serfdom system, but in the end it was not the reverse.

Because the tsar's rule is based on serf owners and nobles, how can he self-defeated martial arts and break his roots?

Unfortunately, not many people can see this clearly. The mainstream aspirations of the Russian enlightened elites are still based on the emergence of an enlightened and authoritarian tsar.

Li Xiao also has no solution for this moment. He is just a trivial **** in Russian politics. You can't use the levers of the big political policy at all, the only thing you can do is to save yourself and grow slowly.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao made up his mind and no longer hesitated. I took out the quill again and started to write and draw on the manuscript paper. A drawing and technical description soon appeared on the paper ...

"This is the result of your busy night?"

Leonid was very curious about Li Xiao's work. He felt that someone was very capable and was a technical master. From the last improvement of the rifle, someone's invention is of great military significance. So when I heard that someone had come up with something new, he was the first time to check it out.

Only this time, Leonid was confused by these drawings and instructions. He can understand the words and figures above, but he has no idea what it means.

All-metal bullets, weird chemical formulas, intricate and complicated gun drawings ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ These extremely complicated things are too far away from the war he knows well. For example, he could not understand why it was necessary to load gunpowder into a metal cartridge case.

"What's the point? Since the 15th century, we have been using gunpowder as it is now. After hundreds of years of trials, the current way is undoubtedly the best."

Leonid said very earnestly: "The cartridge case made of brass is just to increase the loading speed and waterproof, which is too luxurious! Do you know how many bullets are needed by the army of hundreds of thousands of people? How much copper is needed? I can hardly imagine how extravagant it was! "

Li Xiao replied faintly: "No luxury at all. That will be the trend in the future. Soon you will know how terrifying the new rifle using this new bullet is. It will take five or six years to find out The mode of war will be completely different! "

Leonid looked suspiciously at Li Xiao's enveloping various drawings and documents in an envelope. He did not believe Li Xiao's assertion, and even felt that the other party was a bit arrogant and exaggerated. However, with his understanding of Li Xiao, it seems that the other party does not need to brag about it.

He asked, "Where are you going to send these documents? War Department or Navy Department? Would you like me to help you?"

Leonid thought that Li Xiao would send his invention to the Russian military, but Li Xiao had no intention at all.

"Neither the War Department nor the Navy Department. Those stubborn and old antiques will not appreciate my inventions. Giving them is like dusting the pearls, and I am going to send these to places where I can appreciate them and make them work!"

Leonid asked suspiciously: "So where is this presumptuous?"

骁 Li Xiao smiled fiercely at him: "The patent departments in Britain and France!"
