Chapter 453 Departure
byid(“readerfs“).classname = “rfs_“ + rsetdef()[3]
After Zhu Hongsan occupied Luzon two years ago, he captured a large number of Spanish prisoners of war, including more than 1,000 naval officers, all of whom were coerced or bribed by Zhu Hongsan into the navy and became a glorious foreign aid in Zhu Hongsan's navy.
After visiting the captured Spanish warships, Zhu Hongsan came to a conclusion that Spain is worthy of being a naval power that has been crisscrossing the seas for several hundred years, and has gone ahead of the Ming Dynasty in the management of warships, the division of labor among various arms of the armed forces, and the maintenance of equipment. Although Spain was defeated by the emerging British Empire a hundred years ago, the hundreds of years of naval precipitation could not be ended in a single battle, and although Spain is now in decline, the strengths of their navy can still be learned.
Therefore, Zhu Hongsan was very happy after getting these thousands of Spanish naval officers, and immediately incorporated them into his own fleet to serve as deputy captains, boatswain, gunners, and other positions, and at the same time ordered these naval officers under his command to learn everything from the Spanish instructors, and if they did not meet the standards within the specified time, they would immediately be expelled from the navy and go home to pick up their children.
This order made Zhu Hongsan's subordinates very uncomfortable at first, because these Spanish navies were their defeated generals, and it was really unacceptable to learn from their defeated generals now.
Zhang Dascar was the first person to raise objections, and Zhu Hongsan immediately ordered Zhang Dascar to go home to retire, which suppressed the opposition in the navy.
However, after studying, these arrogant fellows are really convinced, and the Spaniards are indeed very good at navy. In the past, Zhu Hongsan's navy followed the Ming Dynasty navy, arranging a large number of fighting infantry on the warships to prepare to jump gangs, and at the same time, the division of labor among various sailors was chaotic, basically the captain was temporarily assigned, and there was never any full-time post.
After the systematic training of Spanish instructors, Zhu Hongsan's navy also formed various institutionalizations, and began to carry out special post training when he was a recruit, and the gunner was the gunner, instead of going where there was a shortage of people as before.
After more than half a year of rectification, the combat effectiveness of the navy has been greatly improved, and the quality of sailors has reached the first-class level in Europe. On the Asian side, it is completely possible to beat Portugal, the Netherlands, Britain and other naval powers, but there is still a gap compared with the European fleets of these countries, after all, the invincible fleet formed by Spain a hundred years ago has hundreds of battleships.
In order to close the gap between himself and the traditional maritime powers of Europe, Zhu Hongsan ordered his subordinates to learn Spanish, and also included Spanish in the selection conditions for promotion, and now I heard Zhang Quan say that he only recognizes more than 100 words for half a year, how can this not make Zhu Hongsan annoyed!
"Zhang Quan, my order is that you should fart! By the end of the year, you won't be able to master 300 words, you won't be able to have a simple conversation, and you won't have to do it as an admiral! ”
Lieutenant Colonel Anthony, the Spanish instructor standing behind Zhang Quan, saw that the emperor lost his temper, and hurriedly prepared to defend Zhang Quan, although these Han people do not want to see themselves, but after all, are they comrades in the same boat!
Anthony stood up and said in a strange tone: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Admiral Zhang has worked very hard, after all, he was still illiterate a year ago!" ”
Zhang Quan also knew that Anthony was kind, but he still scolded in his heart: This foreign devil can't speak too much, how can anyone point his nose and scold the human being blind!
Zhu Hongsan heard Anthony say this

The mood is much better, and what he said is that it is really difficult for him to let an illiterate person learn a foreign language.
"Zhang Quan, since Lieutenant Colonel Anthony intercedes for you, get up and remember to study hard! You know! ”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will definitely learn three hundred words by the end of the year!"
Zhu Hongsan smiled and turned to talk to Anthony.
"Dear Lieutenant Commander Anthony, what do you think of my navy?"
Anthony didn't understand what Zhu Hongsan said, and the translator on the side hurriedly turned it into Spanish and told Anthony.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, your sailors are a bunch of pirates and hooligans, they can't be a glorious naval soldier, prison is their best home!"
Hearing Anthony say this, Zhu Hongsan knew that this guy was still haunted by the defeat two years ago, after all, they didn't win well at that time, and they didn't win well at that time, taking advantage of the Spaniards' unpreparedness to attack late at night.
"Dear Anthony, you can't say that, there is a saying in our country that if you succeed, a prince will be defeated, and you have failed after all!"
After listening to the translation, Anthony blushed and said: "You are a sneak attack, and you don't have the sense of honor that a navy should have, and you have no sense of honor like those British pirates!" ”
"Dear Anthony, you hate us so much, you can't have anything to do with training sailors, do you?"
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you look down on us Spanish nobles too much, failure is failure, but since we promised to help you train the navy, we will definitely do our best! Please don't question the integrity of a nobleman! ”
It seems that these European aristocrats are really stupid and cute, Zhu Hongsan nodded with satisfaction, and said to Zhang Quan: "How are these Spaniards taught?" ”
"These guys are really perfect naval officers except for not liking baths, they are meticulous in everything, and the brothers have grown up very quickly under their training!"
Just be willing to work, Zhu Hongsan nodded with satisfaction, ignored Anthony, and led his civil servants into the cabin.
This big ship has a displacement of 1,500 tons, 510 sailors on board, plus Zhu Hongsan's attaché, a total of 700 people, only Zhu Hongsan has a single room, this is the captain's room, belonging to Zhu Hongsan. The remaining Tong Yangjia and Qian Qianyi are in a room. Zhu Hongsan's son, Zhu Jiang, the king of Qin, as the prince of the prince, was also crowded together with the guards.
Before leaving, Zhu Hongsan had already told Zhu Jiang that since he wanted to come out to be a soldier, he had to act according to the rules of the army, so he had to follow a soldier for food, clothing, housing and transportation along the way. Zhu Jiang also agreed, but this first hurdle was not easy.
Zhu Jiang saw that he was arranged by his father to the guard company, and thought that no matter how he said it, he could have a single room, but he was dumbfounded when he thought of it below. It turned out that it was not a single room, and he had to live with ordinary soldiers in a makeshift bed erected on the artillery.
The current warship is not an aircraft carrier of tens of thousands of tons in the future, the space on board is very limited, and now there are more than 100 outsiders, and the natural space is very tight.
Zhu Jiang had suffered this kind of crime from Xiaojinyi and Yuyu, so he immediately quit and shouted for the company commander to arrange a single room for him.
The commander of the guard company is Zhu Hongyi's second son Zhu Bao, and Zhu Bao is Zhu Hongyi's second son and his sister-in-law

son, in the future, he will accept Zhu Hongyi's title. As the prince of the vassal king, he naturally understands this King of Qin, after all, Zhu Bao is nominally Zhu Jiang's cousin.
"Your Royal Highness King Qin, do you have any comments on the residence of the guard company?" Zhu Bao looked at Zhu Jiang who came to find him and asked.
"Of course, how can I say that he is also the prince of the country, and there is not a single room?"
Zhu Bao also knew that this King of Qin was pampered, and when he was a child, he was best at being unreasonable, but Zhu Bao couldn't help it, after all, this guy was the King of Qin, and he was far above him regardless of his status and status, so he still had to answer well.
"Your Highness, it is His Majesty's will that you come to the guard company, the emperor made it clear, you are treated the same as ordinary soldiers in the guard company, if your Highness has any objections, you can go to Your Majesty to ask for clarification!"
Zhu Jiang relied on the favor of his father and the emperor, and did not put Zhu Bao in his eyes at all, and now seeing that Zhu Bao didn't care about himself and pushed him to the emperor, Zhu Jiang was dissatisfied: "Okay, you Zhu Bao, you are just a house slave of our family, dare to talk to the master like this, you wait!" After Zhu Jiang finished speaking, he angrily came to the deck on the first floor to find his father Zhu Hongsan.
Zhu Hongsan is now receiving the worship of all the soldiers on the deck of the flagship, and a total of more than 50,000 soldiers will follow him on this expedition. The accompanying army soldiers had two divisions of 24,000 men, plus 20,000 people from the navy and 8,000 people for logistics supplies, and the scale of the fleet this time had already exceeded the scale of Zheng He's voyage to the Western Ocean, and it was about the same as the Spanish Armada.
Before leaving, Zhang Huangyan read out the edict on behalf of the emperor himself, the edict was very simple, it was nothing more than mentioning his legitimacy and uniqueness again, all other Ming Dynasty regimes were illegal, and now he was the only government with legitimacy, so he naturally wanted to recover Nanjing. The second point is to detain the shit basin on the head of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, what men and women live together, the elder brother dies, the sister-in-law is inherited by the younger brother, and other things that seem to be rebellious in the Ming Dynasty, these are all buckled on the head of the Manchu Qing, and finally Zhang Huangyan also put forward the historical law that Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Hu people have no national fortune for a hundred years", encouraging all soldiers to make meritorious contributions.
Zhu Hongsan listened to Zhang Huangyan reading the edict on the side, of course, this edict was not from the hand of the semi-literate Zhu Hongsan, but from the hand of the great writer Qian Qianyi. Zhu Hongsan had long understood the content of the edict, and he was deeply envious and jealous of Dolgon's ability to marry his sister-in-law.
Just now that Zhang Huangyan read out the edict, Zhu Hongsan came to Tong Yangjia's side and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Tong, you are from Liaodong, so Dolgon is really not clear with his sister-in-law?" ”
Tong Yangjia was stunned, he didn't expect Zhu Hongsan to ask this question.
"Your Majesty, this minister doesn't know, but those Tartar traditions are like this, after the death of the father, all the concubines will be inherited by the son, and it is not necessary that many Ergon Zhen and Huang Taiji's wife have anything to do with it!"
Zhu Hongsan laughed in a low voice when he heard the funny place: "It seems that the Tartar is true temperament, Huang Taiji I heard that he has tuberculosis, maybe the ability of a man is really not good, and it is understandable for my sister-in-law to be lonely and find a little uncle, maybe the Shunzhi Emperor is the son of Dolgon!" ”
Tong Yangjia listened to what Zhu Hongsan said about obscenity, but he didn't dare to refute it, so he only nodded again and again in agreement.
"His Majesty the Emperor is right, when we reach the Shuntian Mansion, we can arrest Dolgon and ask for details!"
"And remember to arrest Huang Taiji's wife too, I'm going to interrogate this little slut myself to see what she's going to do to turn Dolgon upside down! Hey, hey, hey! ”
