Judging from the general trend of historical development, the outflow of advanced technology cannot be completely eliminated, it is only a matter of time.The industrial products and production technology that Haihan is proud of will sooner or later be introduced to other countries and become objects of imitation.But as long as Haihan can take the lead in completing the industrialization process and stepping into the era of industrial civilization, then it will have a big enough advantage to widen the gap with latecomers, and set up barriers in the development of some key technologies, delaying contemporary competitors catch-up speed.
Originally, the Manchu Qing Dynasty in history implemented a closed-door policy for a long period of rule, refusing to accept the development achievements of industrial civilization, so that it later changed from a heavenly kingdom to a dilapidated empire that was backward and beaten.But the situation in this time and space is very different. What the Manchus are facing is the Haihan Kingdom, which has mastered industrial technology and has a huge military advantage. They can feel the strength of Haihan firsthand, and they will have a stronger motivation to imitate it.
Haihan's own development process has undoubtedly made neighboring countries such as the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty realize what is the correct way to strengthen the country.Although those advanced industrial technologies are difficult to replicate in a short period of time, it is not difficult to emulate which industries should be valued and given priority to investing resources in development. With such a successful model as Haihan.
The development route of the northern region has been aimed at industrialization from the very beginning. Almost all military operations initiated on their own initiative are essentially aimed at occupying more mineral deposits and population resources, and these two are the necessary conditions for realizing industrialization.
Even though the Qing Dynasty did not understand industrialization at all, according to their understanding, steel production capacity and military strength can be equated, and Haihan's development and utilization of related mineral deposits can be emulated.Even if they can only learn a little from Haihan, they can greatly improve their own industrial level, and this is exactly what the Executive Committee does not want to see.
Now that this topic was brought up, Chen Yixin simply explained to Beks what he knew.
Compared with Haihan, the development of the coal and iron industry in the Manchu Qing Dynasty was still at a relatively primitive stage, basically relying on human mining, and the efficiency was relatively low.However, as Haihan has successively put into operation several mines in Liaodong in recent years, Manqing also stole some technologies in mining, beneficiation, and smelting, and then immediately used them in the production of his own mines.
"In the past two years, the opposite side has sent a lot of people to work as miners." Chen Yixin said this, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "While working for us, they secretly learn technology, but they have good plans. !"
Bai Kesi said: "It doesn't matter if you are a miner, but you must pay close attention to technical positions, and don't be taken advantage of by the other side."
Chen Yixin nodded and said, "Don't worry about this, it's an important skill, and they can't easily let them learn it secretly."
Haihan's ruled area in Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and there is a huge labor gap. Industries such as mining can only obtain miners through large-scale open recruitment, and it is inevitable that people from the Qing Dynasty will be mixed in.However, as long as he doesn't openly cause trouble in the mine, Haihan generally doesn't conduct identity screening for such people.
As for how much the technologies learned from the Haihan Mine have improved Manqing's mining production capacity, judging from the data Chen Yixin has, there is no need to worry too much.The current iron and steel production capacity of Manqing is similar to that of the early days of Haihan's development of Shilu Iron Mine, only a few thousand tons a year.
In addition to meeting the needs of life, this production capacity is extremely limited for the actual use of ordnance manufacturing.Dozens of heavy cannons, some muskets, and hundreds of armors for the rest, and more cold weapons such as knives, guns, swords and halberds, the production capacity will be almost exhausted.It may take several years to arm a strong army of [-] people.
The scale of iron ore mined in Anshan, Liaoyang, and Benxi in the northern region is quite considerable. As far as the current mining capacity is concerned, the proven reserves are enough to be dug hundreds of years later.As long as the government is willing to invest more resources to increase the production capacity of coal and iron mines, the steel production will also rise accordingly, leaving Manqing's steel production capacity far behind in a short period of time.
"The opposite is still relatively backward workshop mining, and they can't get our country's mining machinery and equipment, so I think that in a foreseeable period of time, their steel production capacity will not be enough to support an independent military industry."
Chen Yixin’s view is still more optimistic. He believes that the gap in technology between the two sides is not so easy to close. Even if the Manchus are trying to learn from teachers, as long as they do not enter the threshold of industrial production, there will be no real meaning. uplift.
The next day, Chen Yixin continued to accompany Bai Kesi to inspect Jinzhou.
The Dongjiang colonial area is an area specially planned by Haihan in Jinzhou to resettle the soldiers and civilians of Phi Island after conquering Dongjiang Town.This area is adjacent to Jinzhou Bay, the terrain is flat, and there were no land ownership disputes when Haihan took over, so it is perfect for resettling these immigrants.
It is worth mentioning that the location of the Dongjiang colonial area is very close to the Jinzhou camp, and the cavalry is there in a blink of an eye.
When Beks came to Jinzhou last time, it was just a temporary settlement consisting of many tents and shacks, and even the basic living facilities were relatively lacking.However, when I revisited the old place 20 years later, it has a completely different look.
Several villages and towns are scattered in this seaside plain, and the villages are surrounded by crisscross fields, all of which are neatly divided large tracts of land.If you don't know the local history, it's hard to imagine that 20 years ago, it was just a post-war ruin with ten rooms and nine empty spaces.
Civil Affairs Officer Jinping introduced to Bai Kesi and others: "Dongjiang District has been transformed into a county six years ago, and now it governs five towns with a population of 300. In addition to the farmland that you have seen, Dongjiang County's fishery It has also developed quite well, with more than [-] large and small fishing boats.”
In fact, in addition to farming and fishing, Dongjiang people also have another career direction, which is to join the army.During the Ming Dynasty, Dongjiang Town was originally an integration of the military and the people, and almost all the young and old had military experience. After the northern region took over Dongjiang Town, although all of them were moved to Jinzhou for resettlement, the original part was screened and reorganized. , but did not deliberately change the tradition of Dongjiang Town, and still allowed Dongjiang's children to continue to sign up to join the army.
And this tradition has indeed been well preserved. For more than a decade, at least thousands of Dongjiang children have successively served in the Haihan Army, becoming a major source of troops for the Liaodong Garrison.Many of them chose to stay in the army after the expiration of their service period and work as professional soldiers.
