Chapter 12 Review
"No one will make irresponsible comments, right?" Zhao Gongzi was a little moved, and he hesitated. After all, the difference between these two meanings, just like the difference between 'Harbin Institute of Technology' and 'Harbin Institute of Technology', is not the same thing at all, right?
"Anyway, it's all abbreviated, no difference." Zheng Ruozeng smiled disappreciatively: "Some people really say, when the time comes, it will be changed." ”
"Hahaha, ginger is still old and spicy." Looking at the smile of Mr. Kaiyang's admissions director, Zhao Gongzi said with deep thought when he heard this: "Then it's called this name!" ”
He also found the word 'shipping' to be an eyesore.
After a pause, Zhao Hao said lightly: "In order to ensure that this punishment action can achieve the purpose of deterrence, the group has invested in blood and strengthened their strength. ”
"Oh, really?" Zheng Ruozeng looked surprised: "There is a new ship again?" When will it arrive? ”
"I've been to Chengshan Port and trained for a while, so let's go and review it this time." Zhao Gongzi said with a smile.
"I see." Zheng Ruozeng finally understood why Zhao Gongzi brought all the officials and merchants of the Li Dynasty with him. Without it, it's just a declaration of heavenly might.
~~
The 160-mile waterway from Mt. Songtake to Mount Seongsan is also a countercurrent. Fortunately, the northwest wind was blowing at this time, and we arrived at Chengshan Port in the early morning of the next day.
However, the fleet did not enter the port immediately, but dropped anchor in the calm waters between the port of Seongsan and Ushijima.
After a hearty breakfast, the guests were invited to the aft deck.
The officials and merchants of the Li Dynasty were not worried about being thrown into the sea, because last night, Zhao Gongzi personally told them that a grand program had been arranged today, and they were invited to wear the most formal clothes to attend.
Li Mu wore a time dress that was very similar to the official robe of the Ming Dynasty. The Li Dynasty completely followed the Ming system, and the official uniform was no exception. However, the king of Joseon was the king of the county, and although he was given the costume of the prince, the minister was still the minister of the county king, so the color of the costume was usually downgraded by two levels. That is, the first-grade officials wear the official uniforms of the three grades of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no official uniform, only the current uniform and the regular uniform.
Therefore, the ministers of the Li Dynasty can only use peacock complements at most, and there will be no immortal crane supplements. And Li Mu's envoy can only wear a cyan official robe, use a five-grade white pheasant to complement the son, and tie a black horn belt, which is not as good as the silver belt around Zhao Hao's waist.
Li Ruotong's crotch is not good yet, and there are still some duck steps when he walks. He was still a little ashamed, but when he saw Park Sung-sex, he smiled happily.
"Your Excellency, have you finished pouring the night incense?"
Pu Chengxing wears a hat with two vertical feathers on his head and wears a crimson sticker, which is the military uniform of the Li Dynasty. He snorted disdainfully when he heard this, and said with a smug smile: "Childe said that the second son of the first assistant of the Heavenly Empire and the second son of the grandfather of the country are pouring night incense for him." Envy not? ”
"Really?" Li Mu was stunned when he heard this, this was something he didn't expect. Could it be that Zhao Gongzi used this way to show closeness? Do you want to take the initiative to apply for it yourself tonight?
After thinking wildly, the two of them took Jin Xishan and others, as well as Yin Dangshuo, the supervisor of Jingyi County, who was temporarily invited, and boarded the stern deck.
On the aft deck, a red carpet was laid out with golden chrysanthemums. Tall guards dressed in black high-necked cloaks, black hats, and long black leather boots stood solemnly at the corners with beautiful rifles with silver guns, shining bayonets, and black handguards.
Even Zhao Gongzi changed out of the outfit of the rich and noble brother, and put on black long leather boots and a high-necked cloak made of dark blue wool silk fabric. Silk is the fabric for making dragon robes, edicts and official robes, and it is also the most valuable kind of silk, known as 'one inch of silk and one inch of gold'. Zhao Gongzi's woolen silk material adds a lot of heaviness in addition to luxury, and the king of the Li Dynasty has never seen it or worn it.
Zhao Hao wears a blue hat helmet on his head, the top of the helmet is inlaid with a ruby the size of a dragon's eye, and the front of the helmet is also inlaid with a gold anchor.
Zhao Hao hung a sword hilt inlaid with shark skin hanging from his waist, and there was a gilded ancient sword sitting on the lion on the handle, standing proudly on the bow of the ship, and was looking intently at the direction of Chengshan Port.
Behind him, stood Tang Youde, Zheng Ruozeng and others, all wearing the most solemn costumes. And the two warriors, Na Jinke and Zhu Jue, were wearing the same high-necked cloak and blue hat and helmet as Zhao Gongzi. The difference is that their caps are inlaid with sapphires, and the front of their helmets is not inlaid with gold anchors, but with a gold star on each of them.
In addition, the fabric of their cloak is wool green cloth, although it is not as good as Zhao Hao's at first glance, but the fabric is also straight, full of texture, and the color of red flame is faint, which is a high-end product that Li Chaoren has never seen.
The two of them each hung a silver gilt sword, one on the left and one on the right, standing beside Zhao Hao.
~~
This solemn and majestic scene immediately calmed Li Ruotong and Park Sung-sex and others. The atmosphere didn't dare to breathe for a while, and then he had the courage to salute Zhao Hao and call him a son.
"Oh, you're here?" Zhao Hao turned around and said to Li Chao and the others: "Today, my Ming Royal Tamluo garrison area is about to hold a parade, I wonder if you can watch it together?" ”
"It's an honor."
"Don't dare to ask for ears, but you can do what you want." Everyone nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, then let's watch my big tomorrow together." Zhao Hao smiled and nodded to Jin Ke, who was the commander-in-chief.
Jinke took a step forward, his boot slamming against the floor. He drew his bright sword, pointed diagonally at the blue sky, and shouted:
"On the orders of the chief police superintendent, the Ming Royal Tamluo Water Police District, the parade begins!"
On the side, the commander, who was also wearing a blue high-necked cloak and a blue hat and helmet, immediately blew the majestic horn!
Immediately afterwards, the eight-sided cowhide drum under the stern sounded rhythmically at the same time, and the drum sound shook the sky!
A few miles away, on the hill of the city, a majestic drum suddenly sounded as well. Harmony with the big drum on the Wuwei boat, majestic mountains and rivers!
Immediately afterwards, Konghou, Guzheng, Guqin, and Pipa joined in one after another, and together played a song "King Qin Breaking Array Music", which shook for hundreds of miles, and the mountains and rivers were magnificent!
The people on the stern only felt their hearts beating faster, and their hearts were shaken, although most of them didn't hear this "Qin King's Breaking Array Music" for the first time.
But on this sea warship, played several miles apart, its majestic momentum is not comparable to that played in the palace temple?
But what shocked the guests even more was yet to come.
Listening to the majestic music, a warship with its bow raised and its tail towering, and flags planted all over it, slowly sailed out of Chengshan Harbor.
As soon as the boat came out, it caused the exclamations of everyone in the Li Dynasty. Except for Li Mu's envoys, they were either naval generals or maritime merchants, so they were naturally very sensitive to ships.
"It looks like a fortune ship, but it's too big, bigger than the Japanese Ataku ship!" Kim Hee-sun whispered.
"yes, I've never seen such a big fortune ship." The maritime merchants also exchanged their heads.
"Is this a sealed boat?" There was a lot of fuss, and they had never seen the world at all.
The 400 Celestial Empire Fortune Ship can make them feel as tall as a building, because the largest warship of the Li Chao Naval Division does not have 400 materials.
"It's a big, big fortune ship." Pu Chengxing stammered slightly, he, the envoy of the Li Dynasty's water army, still knows the goods after all. "I thought the Celestial Empire wouldn't build such a big sea ship anymore. This Daifuku ship has to have a thousand ingredients, right? ”
"Yes, a thousand materials." Zhao Hao nodded when he heard this, and said very modestly: "It's still a cut away from the real Great Fortune ship, and in the fleet that went to the Western Ocean back then, the smallest warships were bigger than this." ”
What he said was really right, in Zheng He's fleet back then, not to mention those unbelievably large treasure ships, just the two thousand warships that were the main force were seventeen zhang long. The smallest warship of 1,500 materials was also fifteen zhang long.
And this kind of thousand-material sea ship, which is only thirteen zhang long, in Zheng He's era, can indeed only watch the family in the mainland, and cannot follow the fleet to the West to show off its might.
Sadly, one hundred and fifty years later, not to mention the Li Dynasty people were frightened by these small warships of the past. Even Zhu Jue, who saw him for the first time, was startled by this thousand-material ship, and only felt that he had encountered a behemoth.
It is not to blame them for being lonely and unheard, this is the inevitable result of the Ming Dynasty's self-abandonment of martial arts and the transformation of the ocean-going navy into an offshore division. Ocean-going vessels need to be big and heavy to withstand wind and waves. But big ships are as heavy and slow as elephants when they reach the offshore, so the coastal defense sailors will definitely choose smaller and lighter ships to chase the raging pirates.
So if you look at the size of a country's warship, you can see how high and low their ambitions are for the ocean.
~~
In the past, the Longjiang Treasure Shipyard, which could build 5,000 treasure ships, can only build such a big fortune ship now...... Zhao Gongzi sighed secretly, his expression was very serious.
At this time, the startled Li Dynasty officials and businessmen let out louder and more sustained exclamations, which made people listen to the sound of frogs.
They found out that the Thousand Fortune Ship was not actually one!
It's two, three, four......
They will never forget the scene they saw in front of them in their lives - they saw the brand-new Thousand Ingredients Daifuku Ship, which was uniformly painted with blue sides and covered with copper under the waterline, sailed out of Chengshan Port one after another, lined up in a long column, and slowly sailed towards them.
The Daifuku ship at the front had already arrived in front of them, and the fleet behind them had not yet come out of the port of Chengshan!
The course of the parade fleet is perpendicular to the blacktail ship that serves as the review vessel. Therefore, on the Daifuku ship with the eye-catching white port number '201', all the officers and men on the parade were on the starboard side, facing the review ship in a neat line.
When the bows of the two ships were vertical, the captain of the 201 ship, Haierdi, drew his silver sword, solemnly raised it in front of his chest, and ordered in a loud voice: "Salute!" ”
All the police officers who were read were uniformly dressed in blue stand-up collars, blue hats and helmets, black leather boots, and Longqing-style rifles, standing two feet apart. Hearing the snap, the heels of the shoes were together. With a bang, the gun salute was carried out, and the movements were neat and uniform, not bad at all!
Zhao Gongzi also drew his long sword and returned the salute with the sword!
I saw that on the cold and shining sword, one side was engraved with a seven-star map, and the other side was engraved with the four seal characters of 'Majesty and the Four Seas', which was the sword that the Yongle Emperor in the past rewarded Zheng He in Jinghai Temple, and the sword that Zheng He wore when he went to the West!
ps. I'm tired, the third watch, ask for a monthly pass!
