"Lower the sails a little!" Yan Changwu instructed him to hand over command to Shi Daxuan, who was trained in his battleship induction with the help of Mr. Storm and Mr. David.

Examination training is indeed effective, can be qualitative and quantitative, only to obtain a certificate can be on the job, and the certificate is obtained by a large number of assessment subjects to complete, when the completion of these assessment subjects, people also become officers who meet the requirements of the post.

Yan Changwu returned to his cabin and carried out some writing work, which was unavoidable as a captain, unless he didn't do it.

Including the records of reserve materials, as well as the accounts for the payment of allowances to the sea and the rewards and punishments for officers and soldiers, it is the jurisdiction of the commander: people, money and property!

He signed all the reports, and then called the documents to classify them, and then Yan Changwu browsed the "Logbook".

It is an extremely important information on the ship, recording the experience of the battleship, and Yan Changwu browsed page by page.

"On Friday, April 12, 1630, the wind was southeast, south, and the course was northwestward, and the battleship entered the sixteenth day of the cruise, without a fight!

The weather was good in the morning, the wind direction was uncertain at noon, and it was larger, so the mast sail was lowered, and the sun was fierce at the beginning of the afternoon, and there was a sudden rainstorm, and the sails were spread and retracted alternately, and the shelling training was carried out in the heavy rain.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the four of them rolled up the square mainsail, and at 10 o'clock saw a lucky boat coming from the shore of the Guangdong Sea and heading for Beigang.

After the raid, this is a merchant ship sent to Beigang to send rosin and sandalwood, and there is no suspicion. ”

Again: "Gather in small groups, read the Naval Punishment Regulations, and conduct criticism and self-criticism (political study)...... On the upper mast sail and the second bow oblique sail, Sergeant Tang Biao and Corporal Xu Xiaoming, both of whom measured the distance of a fishing boat in the southwest, and obtained 11 nautical miles and 13 nautical miles respectively; There was a light breeze that day, the sails were fully displayed, the speed of the battleship was six knots, the breeze gradually stopped, and the speed of all the battleships was reduced to zero.

On the same day, the cabin was cleaned, and then the roll call was concentrated, and the officers and soldiers were rewarded and punished a while ago, and the captain of the ship gave a lecture, and the soldier Wei Xiaosan was whipped 12 times for being disrespectful to the officer, and he was executed on the spot, and the artillery commander Bai Menghuan was rewarded with the allowance plus 50% of the allowance for going to sea for 10 consecutive days. ”

The daily content recorded in the "Logbook" is so prosaic and uniform, that it is only more lively and vivid when there is an emergency, such as "...... Today, there was fog, and the warships were stationed in Penghu Bay, carrying out artillery simulated attack missions and firearms training, and at noon, a number of supply ships came to replenish the supplies, and the decks were full of fresh fish, and the ships were distributed, and they ate a meal of fresh fish soup and fried fish that day. ”

……

"This is military life!" Yan Changwu closed the logbook, he sat on the big armchair, and saw that outside the porthole, the bright sea water was blue than the sky, and there was a group of seagulls chasing the warship on the track of the seawater outside the porthole.

A good time, with the shaking of the waves, Yan Changwu fell asleep in the armchair, until the close servant Shui Shen woke him up and said: "Overseer, we are close to the Zhongzuo (Xiamen)!"

……

He stretched, straightened his clothes, and strode out of the cabin.

The deck was very lively, a bunch of officers stood on the stern compartment (the highest position there), the other officers and men were neatly dressed, and some of them had already added one or two layers of deerskin armor to themselves, because the predetermined military order had been issued, and they had entered a state of first-class combat readiness, ready to fight the enemy at any time!

"How's it going?" Yan Changwu asked.

"Nothing happens!" Shi Daxuan shook his head and said, a little regretful in his words.

Yan Changwu put his eyes close to the telescope to observe, there were no warships from the Fujian Navy Division of the Central Left Institute to intercept them, not even patrol boats, and the Ludao Fortress in front of him was also a quiet river, the cannons were silent, and the officers and soldiers were silent.

"Special M's is simply that if you can't resist it, then strip naked and lie down and enjoy!" Yan Changwu scolded a famous rude sentence, which caused everyone to laugh.

"We are also officers and soldiers! The officers and the army do not fight the officers and the army, they are right! Gan Hui said dryly, and everyone laughed again.

"Well, order the fleet to unfold!" Yan Changwu ordered.

The flagship was flagged, and the ships complied with it.

……

Fortunately, Zou Weilian is in the center and left.

It's better to ask for someone than to ask for it, and this governor has come up with a way that is not a solution, that is, to catch smugglers!

He bought some boats (fast boats), and then eliminated some old and weak soldiers in the Fujian Naval Division, and re-recruited some better soldiers, and trained them well for catching smuggling ships in the coastal waters!

According to the Ming Dynasty's maritime ban system, those who transported goods to sea were smuggling ships, so the sailors could catch them.

If you don't want to be caught, then hand over the water!

He also learned from Yan Changwu to collect water and earn silver through this method, so as to accumulate strength and see if he could make a plywood boat with Hongmao Fan in the future and compete with the Southeast Mansion.

This is what he can explain to Emperor Chongzhen, otherwise he will not do anything and make the emperor unhappy, then it will be difficult to protect the black yarn hat.

……

He supervised very strictly, and often went to the center and left to see the exercises, and as a result, he saw the scene of the southeast fleet's mast covering the sun and the military appearance.

From the telescope, I saw that all the battleships of the Southeast Province had opened their gun doors and approached in a fighting posture, and the guns loaded on them were as dense as pinpricks, giving people a huge deterrent!

Governor Zou's chest rose and fell, and he was filled with righteous indignation.

"One battleship (informed by Lan Bangxian, the chief soldier of the Fujian Naval Division) is worth 200,000 taels of silver, and three are 600,000 taels! In addition, the twelve cruisers also have more than 600,000 taels of silver, a big million taels of silver, and they are not handed over to the imperial court, hum, their hearts can be punished! Such a traitor, how can the court tolerate him! ”

When he was angry, he saw three Daifuku ships coming from the nearby sea and blocking the front of the Southeast Fleet, and the sailors on the Fukuku ships were in small boats, and they left the Fukubunes one after another, allowing them to float on the surface of the sea on their own.

He was puzzled when he heard a loud thunderclap, which made him fall to the ground with a telescope!

The battleship fired!

The fierce flames struck the Fukubune like a storm, and the storm shot out clouds, thunder, and orange lightning, and the Fukufu ship exploded with wood chips in the sky!

The battleship fired first, then the cruiser followed, and the guns mercilessly tilted the projectile towards the Fubune!

Under the noses of Governor Zou and the officers and men of the Fujian Navy Division of the Central Left Command, the Southeast Fleet gave them a wonderful teaching lesson, demonstrating the bombardment of the battle line, the assault of a single ship, and the use of salvo and continuous firing, showing the superb artillery skills of the Southeast Fleet!

Fast speed, fierce firepower, high hit rate!

What frightened some experts in the Fujian Navy was even more terrifying: in less than half an hour, the three Dafu ships were sunk!

Seeing them sink into the water quickly, everyone knows that when the sail battleship bombards, the opponent can't fight back, maybe you may not be able to sink it in an afternoon, but it was sunk so quickly, and the firepower is fierce enough!

Governor Zou still knew about this situation, and he couldn't help scratching his head.

How can you deal with the South-Eastern Fleet!

Hahaha! Gan Hui, who was in charge, laughed loudly, and he bought three Dafu ships through an intermediary, which were driven out by the marines and some of the crew, and before leaving, he destroyed some of the key structures of the Fu ships and accelerated their sinking, so as to intimidate Governor Zou and the Fujian sailors!

……

After showing their strength, the Southeast Fleet sent someone to apologize to the Fujian Navy Division in a mock manner, saying that they were exercising, and they were sorry to disturb you!

Then he sent a rumor that Governor Zou was going to send a Fujian sailor to fight the Southeast Fleet!

As a result, Governor Zou finally formed a new sailor, and more than half of them fled to a small part of the Southeast Mansion...... Everyone is smart enough to not want to be hit by the cannons of the Southeast Province.

The imperial court said that he was right to crack down on smuggling, but it was wrong to collect water, and that collecting water was tantamount to recognizing that maritime trade was legal, which was inconsistent with the ancestral family law and must be stopped.

Everyone knows that collecting tolls on a road can last, and you confiscate all other people's goods, and once there is no second time.

Governor Zou was at a loss......

……

In a mansion on Guozijian Street in Beiping, an old guy was settling accounts, and when he saw that one of them was "ten thousand taels of silver, Wen Mansion", the old guy smiled like an old fox and said: "It's too cheap, get an imperial secondary!" ”
