Chapter 192: From the Sea

Propaganda work was in place, and the "Focus" and "Imperial Daily" publicized the republic system extensively, so that the people knew the benefits of the republic, and excited the young scholars to implement the republican system, and have the opportunity to enter the cabinet and lead the empire forward.

Therefore, the deaths of the emperor and the old lady did not cause any sensation, let alone any chaos. Everything is propaganda in place, and Xu Cheng should be said to have contributed a lot.

Ye Tong didn't care about anything, but he was surprisingly busy, working as a porter, transporting a large number of various mechanical equipment and instruments from Dingjun Mountain to Chang'an Industrial Park.

Yumen Pass has explored for oil, and many projects such as oil exploitation, smelting, chemical industry, and fertilizer have been launched in Yumen Pass. Ye Tong was so busy that he didn't have the slightest time to breathe, and he spent it on the nervous transportation journey.

Regarding the lack of population, Ye Tong ordered Huang Yueying, Huang Chengyan, Gongyiqiu and others to develop various mechanical farm tools as soon as possible and give full play to the role of the hot ball machine.

Huang Yueying and other giants did not live up to Ye Tong's expectations, and still developed a variety of new furniture, especially some farm tools driven by hot ball machines, which were welcomed by the people.

As a result, human resources are saved, and more people are freed from agricultural production and engaged in production in other industries.

The economy of the entire Qin Empire continued to improve, and a large number of various handicraft houses and factories were built. Transportation facilities are being perfected, and a large number of public welfare projects have been launched. The Hundred Debate Hall has become a real elite debate place, and the situation is getting better and better, Ye Tong is very happy in his heart.

In order to unify the calendar, Ye Tong suggested to the cabinet that the original calendar be cancelled, and the year 221 BC should be determined as the year 001 of the Great Qin Calendar starting from the time when the first emperor unified the world, and it will continue to be continued from time to time without changing the calendar year.

This year is 203 B.C., and according to the new calendar, it is the year 018 of the Great Qin calendar. As for what BC and AD, Ye Tong understood that the rules would be formulated by the Yanhuang people in the future, why should he listen to other people's statements and live according to other people's calendars.

The proposal was endorsed by the Cabinet, the Military Cabinet, the Imperial Pavilion, and the Scholars of the World. To this end, the Qin Empire finally developed a fixed set of calendars, which adopted a two-calendar system, a lunar calendar algorithm suitable for agricultural production, and a solar calendar that was also conducive to industrial production.

The front is the solar calendar, and the second is indicated with the lunar calendar in parentheses, so that neither agricultural nor industrial production will be affected.

In the middle of the Great Qin Calendar 018, Ye Tong set out again, this time targeting Zhao Tuo. is ready to destroy Zhao Tuo, who supports the army and respects himself, does not listen to the dispatch, and is ready to be the king independently.

Ye Tong has four army commanders, Han Xin, Jiang Song, Hua Mulan, and Mu Guiying, and it stands to reason that he can send people to lead troops and horses to attack.

The problem is the state of the road, the difficulty of supply. If the original supply method of ancient warfare is carried out, the supply of food alone cannot be supported, and it is thankful that a percentage of grain is delivered to the soldiers at a distance of thousands of kilometers.

The Qin Empire can't afford that kind of consumption, and Ye Tong can't afford to play either. If that's the case, it is estimated that the world has not yet reached a verdict?

Without Ye Tong's golden finger and cheat, he really can't support the war. It is precisely with Ye Tong's acceptance that he can carry a large amount of supplies and materials, and the war will be so smooth.

Ye Tong did not personally lead the troops and horses to crusade, Han Xin sent troops from Jiangdong, and Ye Tong sent troops from the sea, preparing to eliminate Zhao Tuo in one fell swoop.

Zhang Liang must be in charge of the overall situation in Chang'an City, originally to take Chen Ping away, but later Fan Zeng took the initiative to ask to go. Ye Tong was worried about Fan Zeng's body, and the other party said that it was okay and he must go, so Ye Tong had to agree.

Next, Han Xin's army was to the south, involving some tribes, and Ye Tong sent Kuaicher to Han Xin to be in charge of foreign affairs.

Ye Tong said goodbye to everyone and set off with Fan Zeng and five hundred internal guards. Ye Tong and Fan Zeng sat in the carriage sent by Gongyiqiu, and there were a large number of internal guards guarding the front and rear of the carriage.

Originally, there was no need to bring so many internal guards, but Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Xiao He, Qin Hui, Cheng Yu of the Imperial Pavilion and others resolutely disagreed, and Ye Tong must be asked to bring 500 internal guards along the way to protect and protect safety, Ye Tong had no choice but to listen to persuasion.

It was really boring on the way, Ye Tong and Fan Zeng were in the car, and there was nothing to do, except for drinking, just playing chess. Fan Zeng's chess style is fierce, his moves are ruthless, and he has a strong sense of the overall situation.

In terms of chess strength, Ye Tong is not Fan Fan's opponent. The problem is that Fan Zeng is not very suitable for the 19-grid chessboard, although he stayed in Guanzhong for a while, he often played 19-grid chess with Chen Ping and Zhang Liang, and was used to thinking about the 17-grid chessboard.

On the other hand, Fan Zeng, like Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, likes to play chess, as the saying goes, the national war. Ye Tong doesn't care about the general trend, he only knows that he will take advantage of it. Desperately snatching corners.

In the middle of the belly, from time to time hang a son. The general trend that was finally managed was lightly hanged, and the general trend was immediately weakened.

To put it mildly, Ye Tong's chess in later generations, which mainly focused on seizing the field, was a trick in the eyes of the ancients. However, what Ye Tong said makes sense, playing chess is only about winning or losing, so what is the general trend and national situation.

Fan Zeng was quite depressed, and in every game of chess, he had the advantage at the beginning, and the advantage slowly lost after the middle game. When it came to the closing stage of the back game, he was even more stretched, and he was always taken advantage of by Ye Tong.

Fan Zeng can't be blamed, Fan Zeng is stronger than Ye Tong in terms of chess strength, but in terms of seizing the field, Ye Tong's kind of later generations play the law, and he doesn't care about any vulgar hands at all, and he doesn't care what chess shape he has if he is cheap. In addition, the ancients liked the middle belly when playing chess, and did not like to fight for corners.

Half a month later, Ye Tong and his entourage arrived at the Jiujiang Naval Base and were informed that Lin Xiao, Zhou Yu and others were waiting in front of the base.

After Ye Tong and Fan Zeng greeted the officers and soldiers of the navy, they entered the big tent of the Chinese army. Ye Tong smiled and said, "Zhou Yu, that's good!" Already a brigade commander? ”

"General, without conquest, it is really difficult to be promoted!"

Ye Tong smiled, understanding Zhou Yu's feelings, but as long as he fought again, there was no problem for Zhou Yu to be promoted to the position of division commander, and if he wanted to be promoted to corps commander, he still needed to work hard, at least to take down a piece of land.

You must know that Lin Xiao was promoted to the commander of the corps, because Lin Xiao led the navy to completely annihilate the naval armies of Gongao, Wu Rui, and Chu Army, and achieved great results. It's a real feat.

Later, there was no war in the navy, only training, and promotion was definitely difficult. After Zhou Yu arrived, he did not encounter a battle, he trained every day, and it was not easy to be promoted to the post of brigade commander based on training.

"Don't worry! In the future, the navy will have a large number of expeditionary areas, and the navy brothers should not be bitter at that time. ”

The admirals present were happy to hear that there were a large number of targets for conquest! There was a look of excitement and excitement on his face. The Qin Imperial Army is like this, there is a war, the generals are the most excited, the soldiers are happy, and they like to go on the expedition.

"Lin Xiao, what kind of warship is the Navy going to dispatch this time!"

"General, 20,000 marines need transport ships, in the past six months, two transport ships with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons have been specially ordered, and there are five supply ships of 5,000 tons, and 25 ironclad warships of the navy have collectively set out for the expedition."

Oh!

"There are twenty-five ironclad battleships, not bad! The strength is really strong, on the sea, Emperor Qin's navy will be invincible, but you still have to be cautious, you can't be careless, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, you know? ”

"Yes!"

"However, there are only two transport ships, which cannot transport 20,000 marines, so prepare to use ironclad battleships as transport ships!"

"General, that's all there is to it, there are no more transport ships at the moment. The supply ship is a conversion from the original warship, not a specially produced supply ship. The displacement of nearly 200 other warships with wind power and manpower hybrid power is too small to be suitable for entering the deep sea. ”

Ye Tong nodded, in fact, the manpower and wind power are still better than driving the hybrid boat. However, if there are good ships, the ones with poor performance will definitely be eliminated.

"The original 200 warships were simply sold, and there should be no problem in preparing to build a Yangtze River or Yellow River cargo company, which is specially used to run the Yangtze River and the Yellow River basin."

Lin Xiao said puzzledly: "General, will there be a lander?" ”

Hehe!

"If you don't try, who knows? The Navy released the news, and it is estimated that some big families who specialize in water transportation will be interested, after all, the performance of such a ship is really good. Even if you run the deep sea, you should have no problem. ”

"Alright! Then let the news out. ”

The next day, we got on board and set off. Ye Tong looked at the twenty-five ironclad warships and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. At this time, it was only 018 years of the Qin calendar, that is, in 203 BC, ironclad battleships appeared, nearly 2,000 years earlier than the appearance of ironclad battleships in the original time and space history!

Everything is Huang Yueying's invention of the steam engine to promote scientific and technological progress, which is really remarkable. Such a warship is absolutely invincible.

Ye Tong knew in his heart that this was the beginning. Because Huang Yueying has developed an internal combustion engine, although the power is small, but it has set sail, it will not take many years, once the practical internal combustion engine is produced, warships and so on will bring more technological progress.

Fan Zeng was stunned by the twenty-five ironclad battleships in front of him, stupidly stunned, his mouth wide open, and he couldn't close it for a long time.

The tens of thousands of tons of ironclad warships, both in size and scale, have broken the cognition in Fan Zeng's heart. Fan Zeng, who came back to his senses, asked: "Lord, this ship will really not sink when it reaches the deep sea?" ”

Hehe!

"Mr. Fan, it doesn't sink at this time, and it won't sink in the deep sea, don't worry! These warships have been scientifically calculated and have undergone sea trials, so there will be no problems. ”

Lin Xiao next to him pointed to two warships in the distance that were slightly smaller and only had a displacement of 2,000 tons and said: "Mr. Fan, those two are really warships made of pure steel, and they are not built with a single bit of wood when they are shipped, they are all made of steel." ”

Yes!

"Made of pure steel, so it doesn't sink?"

Hehe!

Ye Tong explained: "Mr. Fan, in fact, any object has buoyancy, whether it is steel or wood, as long as it is calculated properly and the area is large enough, it will not sink.

Water itself has buoyancy, reaction force. The reason why people sink is because the soles of their feet are too small. If you put your feet in big shoes, they won't sink either. Those things are scientific and technological problems, and we can't solve them. ”

Completely subverted the understanding in Fan Zeng's heart, Fan Zeng couldn't understand it. It's okay, seeing is believing. The facts are in front of him, and Fan Zeng only sighs.
