Zhu Cijiong's trip to Europe this time was not a trip to go and go, the itinerary along the way was almost full, such as the sea route between Dongdaying and Dongfan, he had to organize the sailors to test the speed of the ship, and when he arrived in Dongfan, he naturally couldn't laugh it off, and led the combined fleet through the southeast defense line, and the most basic inspection and condolences were necessary.

First of all, he came to the Penghu defensive position of the southeast defense line, where there are Penghu fortresses and Penghu forts, with thousands of artillery pieces and tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the reserve regiment of the naval division stationed in the position!

The emperor personally came to inspect, tens of thousands of soldiers naturally lined up in a neat line early to greet each other, as soon as the huge fleet arrived, tens of thousands of soldiers knelt down in unison, shouting in unison, long live, more than ten miles away can be heard clearly.

Dealing with this kind of small scene is naturally extremely easy for Zhu Cijiong now, he cordially met with the generals at all levels of the Navy Reserve Corps, delivered a unified and enthusiastic speech, and rewarded a batch of Chongzheng Tongbao and all kinds of materials, and then inspected the fort and fort, then Shi Shiran returned to the Daming and continued to rush to the Nandaying Naval Division Base.

This is a small scene for him, it is not a small scene for the envoys of the European envoys, they were stunned to see the Penghu defensive position full of artillery, it is all authentic Dutch cannons, the European continent has fought for so many years, they naturally know each other, roughly count the thousands of doors here, how much does this cost!

Of course, if they knew how these artillery pieces came from, their jaws would be shocked, because these artillery Daming didn't spend a penny, they were all robbed, and the combined fleet of the Daming Navy plundered the entire Eastern Second Fleet of the Dutch Navy, and the artillery filled the entire southeast defense line, and the battleships were transformed into the battleships of the Daming Naval Division, and even these fortresses were built by the Dutch Navy prisoners!

The European envoys were amazed by the Penghu defensive position, there is no such terrifying steel defense line in the entire European continent, it can be said that it is impossible for any small vassal state to break through such a strong defense line, and I heard Shi Vera say that this is only a defensive position in the southeast defense line of the Ming Dynasty, and there are at least five in the southeast defense line like this, what kind of international joke, this is too exaggerated!

After arriving at the Nandaying Naval Division Base, they realized that Schweila was not exaggerating at all, and what they saw in the Penghu defensive position could only be regarded as a small scene, and this was the real big scene, not to mention the Gelanza Castle with the same artillery, there were countless treadmills along the coast of the Taijiang Inland Sea, and the huge Nandaying New Town, however, all this was nothing!

Because at this time, the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet have gathered at the Nandaying Naval Division Base, plus the officers and soldiers left behind by the Naval Division's Reserve Corps, and now there are 250,000 naval officers and soldiers in the entire Nandaying Naval Division Base to welcome His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire!

The entire inland sea of the Taijiang River is full of dense small and medium-sized warships, the number of which is simply too many to count, and now these warships are all neatly lined up on both sides of the waterway from the castle of Gerancha to the new city of Nandaying, like an army waiting to be reviewed.

The huge combined fleet had just entered the Taijiang Inland Sea, and with a "bang", more than 200,000 soldiers all knelt down in the direction of the Daming, and the sound of kneeling down alone overwhelmed the sound of the huge waves, and then more than 200,000 soldiers shouted in unison.

The envoys of the European envoys were really stupid this time, more than 200,000 people shouted in unison, they really haven't encountered it, you must know that these small vassal states under the Holy Roman Empire generally have a population of more than 100,000, and those with a population of hundreds of thousands are considered to be big vassal states, and there is no one with a population of millions at all, and this, just kneeling in the navy that greets His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire has more than 200,000!

And this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying is the countless huge navy of the Ming Empire, when they set off from the East Daying, it was the North Sea Fleet that sent them all the way, that is more than 100,000 navies, as well as their combined fleet and the Beiyang Naval Division and the Nanyang Naval Division A total of 200,000 navies, and there are more than 200,000 in front of them, that is to say, there are five or six hundred thousand navies of the Ming Empire that they have seen, as envoys of a group of small vassal states under the Holy Roman Empire, can they not be scared stupid!

At the beginning, they also complained that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire did not crown their Princess Anna as the empress, and they were ready to return to the Holy Roman Empire and join His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire in front of their emperor, and fight for their princess, but now no one dares to think so, what kind of international jokes, what happened to such a powerful emperor marrying their princess as a junior, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire is an existence that must not be provoked!

This time Zhu Cijiong stayed a little longer, because the Nandaying Naval Division Base is the core base of the future Ming Navy, he is very concerned about the construction here, since Chongzheng recovered Dongfan in the seventh year, he has been away from here for more than three years, and now how is the construction of the Nandaying Naval Division Base?

First of all, the barracks, the South Camp was originally a military base nature of the city, so the military camp was built the most, 300,000 naval division recruits have been training here for nearly three years, the construction of the military camp has never stopped, and now the north and south sides of the South Camp are almost filled with neat barracks, which can accommodate 500,000 troops at the same time!

After several years of development, the maintenance dock of the Nandaying Naval Division Base has developed into a large shipyard with five waterways, which can not only repair all kinds of warships, but also manufacture Fuchuan warships, and can build at least fifty Fuchuan warships in a year!

There is also a cannon foundry, originally the Nandaying Artillery Foundry was mainly for the navy to produce shells and gunpowder, now the Nandaying Artillery Foundry can not only produce all kinds of shells and gunpowder, but also cast 317 and 417 shipborne howitzers, but the flint machine also needs to be provided by Wang Gongchang.

In addition, the development of maritime trade in Nandaying is also very rapid, the geographical location here is unique, the maritime merchants from the south to the north like to stay here or trade directly, originally there were a lot of Ming merchants when this place was occupied by the Dutch, and now they have become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming merchants who come and go naturally more.

The southeast governor Nan Juyi is a civil and military all-rounder, and also has a unique vision for economic development, he seized the opportunity to expand the port of Nandaying, built a modern loading and unloading platform, and also built a lot of simple warehouses near the port, and sent troops to patrol day and night, so that this place has gradually become a gathering place for maritime merchants in the southeast, and even there are many maritime merchants in Nanyang who use this as a transit station, and the merchant ships come and go almost day and night, at this time, the prosperity of Nandaying is even no less than that of the capital!

After Zhu Cijiong inspected the camp, he was very satisfied with the construction of the Nanda Camp, and not only personally commended Nan Juyi, the governor of the southeast, but also cordially met with officials at all levels of the Fengtian Mansion in Dongfan, and even participated in a large-scale banquet prepared for him by Nan Juyi, the governor of the southeast, and drank a few cups with the generals at all levels of the navy and the officials at all levels of the Dongfan Chengtian Mansion.
