The newly established department of the Qin State, the Ministry of the Navy. Vertex M. updated the fastest number of kings to get the position of the new Secretary of the Admiralty, but this position is not easy to do.

"Sir, we are in a terrible situation, underfunded and demoralized, and although you have made a great contribution to the independence of the Admiralty, it will take considerable effort for us to make a difference. to accomplish such a thing. Chen Hai, director of the Naval Technology Department, waved his arm and said. Chen Hai's name has a sea in it, and this character was later changed because he wanted to join the navy, and he believed that the navy was a brand-new service, and he was different from the previous navy, and he was a solid and independent service that gave full play to greater potential. So he showed his enthusiasm for the Navy by changing his name. But the mess of the Navy feels that things are difficult. Fortunately, he did not lose faith.

"I know all of this, but thank you for your loyal existence, because of you, you didn't completely collapse the Admiralty." Wang Shu nodded, affirming all the Admiralty officials present.

"Thank you. Sir. The Admiralty officers nodded their heads in gratitude.

"I should say thank you, okay, don't say that. We should talk about how our Navy Department will develop next, and this is what we should pay the most attention to, and developing the Navy well is what we should do the most. Wang Shu said.

"Yes, sir." Chen Hai and the others nodded in agreement.

"According to the Prime Minister's idea, the main task of the Admiralty is to lay a solid foundation for the future construction of the Qin Navy, which not only comes from the technical reserves of the Navy, but also has a large reserve for the Qin Navy to establish an overseas base overseas." Wang Shu said.

"I've been thinking about this question for a long time. Let me tell you what I think. Wang Shu stood up and spoke first.

"Of course, if you have any different opinions, you can always bring them up, but let me put my thoughts on them." Wang Shu waved his arm and said gently. The other officials listened quietly.

"As far as the current development of the situation is concerned, the situation is very favorable to our Qin State Admiralty, first of all, the merchants of the Chu State have been seriously attacked in the Mengla State, we don't know where the Mengla State is, but the possible location is thousands of miles away from the Western Ocean, so that if the Chu army wants to fight, it must have a large number of ships, not only the needs of combat personnel, but also a large number of logistics supplies. Although the Chu side may have taken measures to cooperate with the South Korean Admiralty, based on the calculations I know so far, the South Korean Admiralty estimates that it will be difficult to ensure that the Chu ** team will reach thousands of miles away to fight a large-scale war. Wang Shu analyzed.

"In this way, only shipbuilding, can completely solve the problem of ship tension, our technical department can cooperate with the South Korean Navy in this regard, as soon as possible to use the new technology to apply to shipbuilding, to see if it can be used fast, stable, and large technology, after all, I think in this regard, Qin has a great technical advantage." Wang Shu said.

"There's no problem with this chief, we're already working together. The main content of the cooperation is to use iron beams or steel beams as the keel of the ship, so that the solidity of the ship is very high. It is much easier to obtain than wood. It's just a bit more expensive, but the ship itself will use a lot of wood, and the cost is relatively only about 20 percent, which I think is acceptable if the merchant can afford it. Chen Hai added.

"Yes, with a project like this, it's not just them who need us to explore that aspect as well. If necessary, welding technology can be sold to them. Wang Shu said.

"Understood, sir." Chen Hai nodded and said. Qin and South Korea launched a technical cooperation on how to use iron beams and steel beams as keels for ships, because large quantities of wood need to be dried and baked to obtain. In the case of a serious shortage of materials, the technical department of the South Korean Admiralty transferred to iron, but they still have some worries about the application of new iron technology, after all, the technology is not very mature They first came into contact with such a shipbuilding method, and Qin has relevant experience, and the two sides immediately launched such a project cooperation. This is what Shangwen allowed to do before.

"There are other technologies, such as submarine cables, and we can support them in some special places." Wang Shu said.

"Understood, sir." Chen Hai recorded. Other technologies include many such as propeller thrusters, submarine cables, and boiler technology. The South Korean Navy is building a completely new concept of ship, he uses a steam engine, instead of sails, but because the propeller technology is not mature, mainly focused on bearings, sealing technology, which requires the sealing of petrochemical products, especially resin in some places, this kind of thing itself is very small, most of it is used in the aviation sector, and the Admiralty only has a small quota, which leads to the fact that the South Korean Navy cannot use propeller propulsion and can only use paddle wheels, it is said that they have built a small boat to sail, They are trying to figure out how to build a sea vessel.

"On top of that, we also need to pay attention to the fact that we need a port. That's what matters most to us. Without ports, our navy would not be able to build a huge naval fleet. Wang Shu said with some concern.

"Everyone, everyone." Wang Shu waved his arm and said.

"I think you all know that all countries are actively developing their navies, the South Korean Navy, the Chu Navy, maybe there will be the Qi Navy, the Yan Navy, and the Zhao State don't know, maybe they are not willing to set up their own navy, but they will definitely have their own naval department." Wang Shu said.

"The challenges come from all sides, and compared to our Qin Navy, the situation we are in is very bad. Our port construction is located in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and we need the control of the Chu navy when we go to sea, which is extremely unfavorable to our operations, and it is not conducive to the future development of our Qin navy," Wang Shu said after a pause.

"How to develop the navy, this question is very heavy for me, but we have to solve this problem, for our Qin navy to solve this problem, at least the Qin navy has a real naval outlet to the sea." Wang Shu said.

"Sir, what are we going to do?" A lieutenant colonel officer stood up and asked.

"My thoughts are, the North." Wang Shu said and pointed to the map.

"In the northern region, especially to the east of the mountain people, there should be a sea over there, as shown on the map of the General Staff, and our Qin side is making friends with the Goguryeo, I think we can concentrate our efforts on developing there, and there is a large forest there, which can make quite a few wooden ships. And that's not all. Wang Shu said.

"There is also the development of the Yan Kingdom, the Yan State seems to be very interested in the plains of northern Liao, and the same is true for the Zhao people, we can actively develop there and get an outlet to the sea. And this outlet to the sea is relatively remote, and no one will notice this. Wang Shu said.

"Sir, the north is cold, especially the farther north it is, the more problems there are, for example, in winter, the ice period is very long, otherwise, the Yan Kingdom would have developed a long time ago. This is a question that we must consider. Although there are many conveniences in the north, there are also many problems, because it is cold in that place, and I don't think anyone will notice it. A major officer stood up and shook his head. As for the idea of developing a naval base in the north, he personally believes that there is not much to use, and at least the difficulty of development is very great.

"Yes, sir, why don't we choose the south, there are so many places in the south, at least the mild temperature is good for us to go to sea, and if we go north, the situation does not seem to be good. The cold season may pose even more severe challenges to the development of our navy, such as the expeditionary force sent by Dawan in the Western Regions. I think such a scenario seems unlikely. "Many officers objected to this, believing that the development of a naval base from the north was too problematic and complex, and that the cold weather was an important point to overcome, and not only that, but the most important point was that the construction of a naval base, with its short summer compared to the south, was difficult to develop. This seems to be very unfavorable to the Qin navy.

"Hmm. There are a lot of problems, but I think it's the only effective solution that goes unnoticed. It may not be the best solution, but it will work because no one is paying attention, so I think it can be done. Wang Shu said.

"Sir, although there are many problems, we can still give it a try in the south, and at the same time choose a good naval base." Chen Hai said.

"Hmm. But this is just an idea, we will report it to the prime minister to know about it, as for where to choose, you can think about it, or rather, it can be more constructive. Wang Shu reminded.

"Sir, I think we get it." The other officers nodded one after another, and Wang Shu breathed a sigh of relief, for the future development of the Qin Navy, the Qin Navy must have its own outlet to the sea. The location of this outlet to the sea is very important. Because a navy that does not have independent access to the sea has no prospects for development. It's just that the construction of this outlet to the sea is very difficult and requires a lot of money, Wang Shu feels that he may not be able to do this, he needs to sell a lot of technology to get this outlet to the sea, or land. This made him think things were very tricky, but he decided to go ahead because the Admiralty was changing a lot in his own hands.
