Chapter 005: The Strength of the Navy Headquarters

Nanyang, Strait of Malacca, Xingcheng, Navy Headquarters Headquarters.

At the throat of the Strait of Malacca, there is a huge city that can accommodate 100,000 people, this giant city, the whole body is made of blue bricks, cement casting, a bronze cannon inlaid in it, a crossbow bed to defend the city, eight Lingbao group acropolis arch to defend the giant city, a five-foot wide moat is added in between, as the core of the Nanyang region, here has the most prosperous commerce.

In order to build such a huge city, tens of thousands of natives died of exhaustion, and modern urban facilities appeared in Xingcheng.

With extensive underground facilities, uniform urban construction, and a standard business circle, although Zhao Zongwu is thousands of miles away, this Xingcheng, which is located in the core of the Strait of Malacca, is still completely built in accordance with his will.

As the real alien land, the authority that governs all of this is the Navy Headquarters.

"Cao Shuai, Zheng Zhilong's department has arrived at the port, and this time the indigenous riots on Java Island were quelled, a total of more than 37,000 people were killed, and one hundred and thirty-seven Jingguan were cast!" Zheng Hai, head of the Staff Unit of the Navy Headquarters, bowed and said.

Cao Wenzhao, who was standing in the main hall, looked at the map in front of him with an indifferent expression, this sea map of the South China Seas, the Indochina Peninsula, and the Indian Peninsula, he didn't know how many times he had seen it, and he didn't know how many times he had deduced it in his heart, but for various reasons, the deployment outlined in his heart could not be truly realized.

After a moment of silence, Cao Wenzhao nodded and said: "Order Zheng Zhilong's department to overhaul all kinds of warships under the command of the fleet group, and after resting for three days, set sail again and go to the Nicobar Islands to assist Zhou Yuji's department in mediating. ”

As an important waterway connecting the South China Sea and the Andaman Sea, connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, the unique geographical location of the Strait of Malacca makes the region have a long history of navigation.

However, because of the idea of thousands of years of inheritance in China, and although Zheng He went to the West seven times, he did not really distribute the huge profits of maritime trade to the hands of the power, nobles, officials, and merchants, which directly led to the subsequent promulgation of the policy of banning the sea.

If Zhu Di at that time knew how to share a part of the huge profits of sea trade, I am afraid that the Huaxia clan would go to a completely different path.

However, there is no if in this world, and the vision created by the historical environment also makes it impossible for Zhu Di to share the profits.

Although the Ming Dynasty promulgated the policy of banning the sea, and opened the sea and banned the sea several times in the middle, it can be summed up at the root that it is always the emperor, the imperial court, and the southeastern gentry who compete for the interests of maritime trade, and the common people do not get the slightest benefit at all.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Chinese people cannot really go out.

For small countries like the British and the Dutch, they were able to dominate the whole world one after another, and that relied on the whole people to go to the sea, colonize overseas, and pursue interests, and only by relying on such a national policy that they were able to plunder the whole world.

Zheng Haidao: "Cao Shuai, whether our army will send military information to the grandfather of the country again, although many fleet groups of our army are in the state of dispatch, it is still completely feasible to send one or two fleet groups to attack the East India Company's station." ”

No matter where in the world, there are hawks and doves, especially for the army, such a division is particularly obvious, but it has become an exception under Zhao Zongwu, aside from other branches of the military, just the Chinese Navy, especially the admirals of the naval headquarters galloping overseas, are all staunch hawks.

In fact, it's right to think about it, a large group of people who left their families and careers to come to a foreign country are not just to earn the meritorious achievements they deserve and contribute to the future family inheritance.

It is precisely because of this premise that Cao Wenzhao, who is in charge of the naval headquarters, dared to lead the combined fleet group under the premise of unclear prospects, and boldly crossed many obstacles, blitzkrieged the Strait of Malacca, and after capturing the Strait of Malacca, he also took the initiative to meet them 39 times, which finally made the Strait of Malacca finally fall into their hands.

After hearing this, Cao Wenzhao shook his head and said: "There is no need for this for the time being, the details of the battle report for the first quarter have been transmitted, and Grandpa Guo will definitely make a corresponding decision after reading the details of our Navy Headquarters." When he mentioned this, Cao Wenzhao's eyes flashed with a bit of admiration.

Faith is something that cannot be seen or touched, but it is real in people's minds.

For Cao Wenzhao and Zhou Yuji, as they established their own names in their respective fields, in their hearts, the admiration for Zhao Zongwu became more and more intense, although they did not have many contacts in the past six years, but the naval development concept proposed by Zhao Zongwu enabled the navy under their command to continue to grow.

Distance is always the foundation of a person's heart.

In the face of the thriving naval forces, Zhao Zongwu only managed to control them from two points, one was to give them absolute trust, and the other was to constantly send outstanding cadets to join the naval forces.

As the largest training base for generals, the War College has made the generals who come out of here the most loyal to Zhao Zongwu through four years of almost brainwashing training.

And the generals who can be selected by the War College are all outstanding, and the generals who can come out of here have experienced layers of hardships.

It's hard to get into the War College, and it's even harder to get out of the War College!

Zheng Hai was able to become the head of the staff unit of the Navy Headquarters at a young age, he graduated from the War College, and he was still the leader of the same batch.

Zheng Hai said firmly: "Yes! The last general had a feeling in his heart that the military order issued by the General Staff Department this time must have the ideas passed down by the grandfather of the country, and the deployment of our Navy Headquarters in the Nanyang region in the future will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes. ”

"Oh?" Seeing Zheng Hai's prediction, Cao Wenzhao had surprise on his face, and said with a smile: "If you can let Zheng Banxian say such an inference, I'm afraid that our army will be busy in the future." ”

I have to say that Cao Wenzhao and Zheng Hai's predictions were not wrong, in order to maintain the strategic advantages achieved by the Navy Headquarters overseas, and at the same time to further develop the power of the Navy Headquarters, Zhao Zongwu can be said to have given Cao Wenzhao the greatest trust and support!

When a fleet group of formed ships arrives, when a steady stream of War College cadets arrives, when groups of skilled craftsmen arrive, waiting for the Navy Headquarters, it will be a complete change!
