The imperial season has entered winter, the north is even more cold and windy, the Xiaoice period is coming to an end, but the aftermath is still not weak.

Most of them have entered winter, but the south side of the mountain is still like autumn.

The old city of the imperial capital of Guangzhou.

"This Guangzhou is really warm!" It was a middle-aged man who spoke, and at a glance he knew that it was a foreign man, but there were even a lot of foreign devils in Guangzhou, and no one cared if they were foreigners.

"Owner! How could these Han Chinese build their houses so tall? "A row of six-storey, 20-meter-high buildings is carved out of stone.

Abruptly shook his head with a wry smile: "Okay, don't say more!" ”

After Cole's heart refused the alliance, he suddenly did not think about the tea and food, and he knew that as soon as the winter passed, it would be the end of the Chahar department.

Anyway, in the winter of the grassland, he mostly hid in the tent to sleep and drink, so he simply went south to have a look. Even if you die, you have to die to understand why the Han people are so terrible all of a sudden!

Even though the relationship with the Menggu Grassland is still hostile, the empire is still open to the trade of goods at the border. In addition to steel and weapons, there are no limits to grain and salt.

War is war, business belongs to business, and the benefits that should be obtained will not be abandoned. In the eyes of the Empire, the Ancient Grassland: It has become a large pasture that can be taken at any time, and it is no longer an equal rival.

Of course, even a pound of rice and grain is not allowed to trade with the Manchus, and the crime of traitor and treason is directly shot, and there is no emotion at all. With the Horqin blockade, the Manchus could not obtain much supplies.

They went all the way south, and the Central Plains and Han land were still the same, but there were no more homeless beggars. The soldiers of the cities are no longer numb and indifferent soldiers. Along the way, it can be seen that groups of cavalry and carriage soldiers patrol around.

As soon as he came to Shaoguan in Lingnan, he felt the similarities and differences in Lingnan. There is no trace of connection in the tall and thick city passes, and the dense cannon ports are even more chilling. Ordinary soldiers are all equipped with full-body armor, and there are no less swords, crossbows, guns and bows. The armor and weapons of the ordinary Han army alone made the sudden eyes enthusiastic and frightened!

The most lively part of Guangzhou is the outer wharf, and the fleet of port merchants specializing in foreign trade is the most dense.

"Boom boom~" Suddenly a few cannons rang out, and suddenly he was immediately happy: "Could it be that the Han army is in civil strife!" ”

But the people around are not alarmed, this is the naval salute, they can often hear it.

"Come on, the Imperial frigate in the shipyard is coming out of the water."

"That's right! It's the first ship of the Empire! Quick, let's get over quickly. ”

The previous ironclad ships were nothing more than iron sheets and steel keels, and they were still wooden ships in essence. After the explosion of steel production, the new warships of the Empire's Yanhuang type also began to be manufactured.

"Let's go and see!" It's not civil strife, which makes Abrupt a little disappointed!

At this time, the shore was already crowded with people, and some people even stood on the roof of the carriage.

"There are too many people in the owner's house!" The Han people have tens of thousands of people in a small place, which makes the ancient warriors can't help but sigh!

Abrupt frowned, but he had an idea when he saw an ox cart coming.

Money can make the ghost grind, and suddenly immediately took out a big ingot of ten taels.

"Coachman, will I give you ten pieces of silver, and borrow your carriage for an hour?"

The middle-aged coachman was stunned for a moment, and then nodded after looking at the weight of the silver ingots: "Okay!" But after that, you'd better exchange the silver for silver and gold dollars, and now you can't use the old silver in Guangzhou! ”

Ignoring the coachman's words, he suddenly stood on the carriage more than one meter high. Sure enough, it was enough to see the sea.

Guangzhou First Steel Shipyard, military and political people and Chen Xiong also began to board the ship.

"Let's go."

The Emperor gave an order, and the whistle began to whistle.

Hmm~Hmm~~ The distant whistle spread very far.

"It's coming, it's coming."

"I heard that this new frigate is all made of thousands of tons of steel."

It's because it's all steel that everyone is shocked! Steel can float on the surface of the water, it's like a myth!

Soon the slender frigate, which was seventy meters long and ten meters wide, slowly came out. The iron-blue frigate floated on the sea like a large piece of steel, and the main battery had only one in front and one in the back. The main battery was two 120-mm guns, but the 40-mm wheel-fired guns on either side were enough for twenty.

"Left full rudder, ready for a salvo." Zheng Sen shouted excitedly, the first fleet of the empire will gradually be equipped with new all-steel frigates, and then it will be the turn of the other two fleets.

With a command, the sailing warship immediately made a big turn. Fortunately, everyone was prepared, otherwise they would have to fall.

"That's not bad." The speed of twenty knots is actually very powerful, but Chen Xiong is still a little dissatisfied!

At least to reach the level of the afterlife, in order for him to truly appreciate. For him, the Steam Frigate is really backward, but the shape design is also beautiful.

"Report to Commander: The front main gun has been locked."

"Report to the commander, the wheel-fired cannon is ready." The wheel-fired rapid-fire cannon is still manpower, but the use of manual wheel-stepping and steam pipe power to change ammunition also allows the rapid-fire cannon to fire ten shells a minute.

The goal is the two-kilometer Daifuku ship, which is about to be scrapped and will reach the pinnacle of wooden ships.

"Volley fire." In order to test the strength of the frigate, four main guns and ten wheels fired at the same time.

Bang ~ As soon as the revolver used by the command rang out, all the gunners immediately knocked on the gun close.

Boom~Eruption~~ A violent beam of fire erupted, and the entire ship was immediately pushed away.

Suddenly, I saw only a dozen flames erupting, and then a large sea ship of nearly 100 meters was immediately surrounded by a sea of fire.

Boom~Boom~Boom~~ At this time, the sound of artillery explosions came correspondingly.

Boom~ The flames brought up thick smoke, and the Daifuku ship had become several pieces.

"This! How can it be! How is this possible! "I regret it suddenly, why did he come to the pier to watch the excitement!

The Mongol warrior beside him was even more ruthless: Immortal Heaven, are you really going to abandon your people!

"This! The first mate ship is gone, what's going on! ”

Not to mention the shock of the Han people, the foreign devils trembled even more. They relied on the guns of warships to sail the four seas, and now they dare not imagine the tragic situation in the future.

"Hey! It seems that Great Britain must not be able to join the Far Eastern Alliance! "After the defeat of the Dutch Spaniards in the South Seas, they were not reconciled, and they have been trying to persuade the European powers to form an expeditionary force all these years.

The prince of Goryeo, who was originally very proud, was also helpless at this time! He is Xinna's younger brother, otherwise he would not have been the son of the world. As the future son, he also has to worry about the fate of the future Goryeo Kingdom! This brother-in-law is not Zhu Yuanzhang. The heart of the emperor is boundless and greedy, and he dared to rob Goryeo when he was still a rogue before!

Emperor Yanhuang relied on the materials of the Goryeo Renchuan Wharf and the support of thousands of warriors in Goryeo to return to the south safely, and then under the strategy of the Goryeo little fairy Empress Li Xinna: the emperor can encroach on the world of the Ming Dynasty.

This was originally a self-consoling fantasy of the Korean people, but even the prince Li Shengming himself believed it.

Otherwise, how could Chen Xiong return south safely, the Goryeo generals and warriors in the empire, as well as the two emperors and queens, have already explained the truth of the facts.
