Chapter 236: The Battleship Is Like a Cloud

The Dutch came to their satisfaction and became the most caravan to be caravan to be cared for except for Han Chinese merchants.

They were elated and impatient to rush to Nanyang to share the cake left behind after the fall of the Francois people, and warmly invited Zhu Yousong to accompany them before leaving.

Zhu Yousong wanted to go to Luzon to see it in person, but was desperately stopped by the accompanying ministers, the blood in that place has not been washed away, and it is said that there is a fishy smell when walking on the road.

The country he built is different from what he inherited from his father, when Emperor Shenzong wanted to go to Datong, he was almost drowned by the civil official spitting on the stars.

He never thought that the current emperor would even want to go to the South Seas.

Zhu Yousong traveled from Fujian on his own luxury cruise ship all the way to Taiwan Island. After landing on the island, when he took Taiwan, the triumphal arch was still there, and he wrote "a thousand soldiers to pacify Taiwan." "Eight big words.

Zhu Yousong jumped off the deck and first ordered his entourage to go to the palace on the island. Pointing to eight words, he happily said to Zhang Hao: "You see, this is what Lao Tzu established when he took Taiwan, and Huo Quai, Ma Yanran, and the wolf Juxu, can there be a comparison?" ”

Zhang Hao was convinced, he didn't dare to imagine such a thing at that time, it can be said that he laid the foundation of the sea with one mouth.

He arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty is a true god and a man." ”

Zhu Yousong laughed twice and said: "At that time, Zhou Shuye and I set a strategy here, let's rely on this island, secretly accumulate strength, and when the time is ripe, we will completely eradicate our ally Franco. Unexpectedly, it was done today. Zhou Shuye is really a treacherous old ghost, with a bad stomach, and I am not a fuel-efficient lamp. ”

A group of people from afar hurried over, and Zhu Yousong came without saying anything, leaving them in a hurry. Zou Yi took the lead, not because the people behind him didn't run as fast as him, but because he had the highest status, he didn't dare to surpass him.

"Your Majesty, haha, Your Majesty, why don't you tell the minister if you want to come."

Zhu Yousong looked at his cousin, who was panting and happy, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Hehe, they are all old brothers in Luoyang, and they don't need those red tapes." I ask you, how is that person now? ”

Zou Yi naturally knew who he was talking about, as the earliest god of wealth in the Fuwang Mansion, the reason why Zou Yi was still the emperor of the soil on a small island in Taiwan was because there was a very sensitive person here. The emperor who was ousted from power, Zhu Youzhen.

Zou Yi hasn't dealt with any government affairs every day, and the first thing he does is to ask the spies who are secretly spying on him, and he knows Zhu Youzhen's whereabouts well.

"King Xin drinks banquets every day, and Wang Chengen and other chamberlains are drunk, and there are often resentful words. Many of these words are very rebellious. Zou Yi lowered his voice and leaned closer to say.

He is very puzzled by his little cousin the emperor, this extraordinary generosity, since ancient times, the battle for the throne is life and death, even if it is a mother's compatriots, there are examples of cannibalism. But Zhu Yousong unexpectedly degraded the former emperor to this island. Not only has the courage of the sky, but also the amazing courage.

The reason why Zhu Yousong did this was actually because he had mixed feelings about Chongzhen, the emperor. First of all, he is the king of the Ming Dynasty, even if there are many reasons, he is also a king of the dead country. The Han people can be said to have fallen into his hands. But his integrity is worthy of affirmation, he is still the last Han emperor recognized by Zhu Yousong, although he has the sin of death, such as frequent faint moves, so suspicious and changeable. But he also has a reason to live, so he should think of it as a suicide note for the sake of the coal mountain...

When he came to Taiwan Island and had a hurried lunch, Zhu Yousong couldn't wait to let Zou Yi lead the way and go to the shipbuilding workshop on the island.

A group of officials accompanied them all, filling the already crowded port.

This is not other shipbuilding workshops, this is the state-owned factory of the Ming Dynasty, which is equivalent to the state-owned enterprises of later generations. There are plenty of silver taels and detailed manufacturing drawings, and the speed of manufacturing is extraordinary. The technology used was provided by the most advanced Dutch, and the materials were provided by the vast inland of the Ming Dynasty.

All sorts of ships, already built, are docked in the harbor and waiting for the sailors to pick them up.

There are eight-masted horse clippers, 37 zhang long and 15 zhang wide, mainly used to transport war horses, quartermasters and soldiers, and at the same time equipped with artillery and firearms, which can be used for rapid water warfare.

Battleships, mainly used for frontal battles on the surface, are equipped with firearms as a whole, and they are the fastest.

The ship is used for two combat modes: fleet escort and water and landing.

The seven-masted ships were grain ships and water vessels, which could also raise livestock, grow vegetables, and be equipped with fishing gear to catch aquatic products, which were essential supply ships for ocean wars

Zhu Yousong pointed to the largest one with great interest and asked, "What kind of ship is that?" ”

Zou Yi said with a smile: "That is not a red-haired boat, it is a lucky ship handed down from our Ming Dynasty." ”

"Oh? We were born in the Fu Wangfu, and the Fu boat is not our ship. Zhang Hao also said jokingly.

"Don't interrupt, keep talking."

Zou Yi couldn't help but wonder, everyone knew that Zhang Hao was Zhu Yousong's most confidant, but he was often scolded for no reason.

"The fortune ship is as tall as a city, the power is majestic, it is easy to plow the waves, the draft is two-foot, and the wind is pressed down, like a car rolling the praying mantis, if the wolf does not avoid and confront the enemy head-on, there is no need for a soldier, only by the hull collision, the enemy ship will be scattered all over the sampan.

Now it is equipped with our newly produced artillery, which is even more terrifying than the lucky ship used by Zheng He when he went to the West. However, the fly in the ointment is that such ships are too large to sail long distances when going to sea. It's a good weapon for defense. ”

"Well, that's good." Zhu Yousong nodded and continued: "As long as it can improve the performance of the ship, or the effectiveness of the firearm. Whether it is a craftsman or an official, there are many rewards. You write it all down, and no matter how small the improvement, report it to me and reward you as appropriate. ”

There was no shortage of craftsmen beside him, and after listening to it, his eyes flashed. This is an opportunity to reach the heavens, and even a road better than decades of hard study in the cold window is paved in front of their eyes in an instant.

Zhu Yousong took advantage of the situation and said: "If there is a great improver, I will not be stingy with the title, and it is possible for the prince to be rewarded." ”

This time it was even more fried, and those civil officials all shook their heads and looked distressed. However, the craftsmen and the officials of the Ministry of Industry's Water Division, the Lifting Division, the Camp Division, and the Nanzhen Fu Craftsman Division were all overjoyed. They almost jumped up on the spot to celebrate, this was simply unheard of, and they were glad that they had caught up with such a time and such an emperor.
