Chapter 455: Iron-masked Judge Pei Xuan
As soon as you hear this, there is indeed no ship that can catch up with the speed of the Ryukyu Navy at this stage, and it is not necessary for everyone to just think about how to do it perfectly, and besides, even if the number of people is reduced, the gang war may not be lost.
Zhang San also had two big killing weapons in his hand, one was a grenade and the other was a hand-held Molotov cocktail. The grenade is not very powerful because it is filled with black powder, but the lethality within a few meters is still considerable, and you must know that the range of movement on the ship is a little larger, so this kind of grenade is still enough for the ship and the city.
The hand-held Molotov cocktail is a miniature version of the ballista incendiary bomb, after the two boats leave, ignite and throw it over, then the soldiers on the other side don't think about jumping into the gang, just jump into the sea.
Since the occupation of Xiaoliuqiu and the opening of the route to the Japanese state, saltpeter has a stable source, and after Zhang San took control of Luzon, in addition to gold and copper mines, saltpeter and other minerals have also been found there, and Ryukyu Island also produces sulfur, and the raw materials for making gunpowder are complete.
Le He was also encouraged to see that everyone agreed with his point of view, and continued: "As for the landing battle, I think there are two ways to solve it, one is to increase the number of attacking ships, and the other is to send the army to attack and occupy with the ships, and we now have an army size of 60,000 enough to use. ”
Le He thought about it and said: "According to next year's strategic concept, the real large-scale landing battle is only one battle in Yangzhou, so strengthening the naval combat capability is beneficial to us in the short term, as for the long term, I believe that after next year's war, we will definitely be able to gain more population." ”
Zhang San nodded with satisfaction: "Well, Brother Lehe is right, we just need to give full play to our own advantages, everyone will boldly say their ideas in the future, and we can work together to come up with the best solution." ”
Le He was encouraged, and as soon as he was happy, he said another thought in his heart: "Your Majesty, in recent times, the people we have recruited from the north have been in a certain situation of adaptation, and most of the immigrants from the north do not know how to grow rice, so we need to solve this problem. ”
Zhang San thought about it and said: "Farmers farming is just those things, they can't learn it, then the immigrants from the north and the immigrants from the south will mix together, and the southerners will teach the northerners." ”
Wen Huanzhang clenched his fists and said: "People everywhere like to live together with one surname, if they are forcibly dismantled, they are afraid that immigrants will not feel safe, and there is a big difference between the languages of the south and the north, and the people of the two places live together, I am afraid that the communication barrier will increase." ”
Hu Ge, who had not spoken, said: "I think this language problem can be solved through education, when the children read and write, they pronounce the same sound and use the same word, so that the children can explain the meaning of each other's words to the people of the two places." ”
Wen Huanzhang remembered that Hu Ge had always wanted to implement the plan for schools to enter the village since he presided over the education work, but he had not fully implemented it because of the lack of readers.
Zhang San nodded and said: "The behavior of a family and one surname should be avoided as much as possible in the future, this kind of gathering is easy to oppress outsiders, and hinders our management work, and in some places there will even be a situation where the clan rules are greater than the national law." ”
Zhang San turned his head to Wang Jin and said: "When you want to supervise the legislation, write this into the law, all village rules and clan rules cannot be greater than national laws, cannot restrict the personal freedom of others, and cannot be criminal law and murder, otherwise all people of the whole clan participating in the voting will be guilty of the same crime!" ”
After Zhang San finished speaking, he remembered that he had always wanted to relieve pressure on Wang Jin, how could he forget to go to Yinmachuan this time to Shandong. Where are there three heroes who will go to Liangshan in the future, and there are two useful characters in them.
One is the iron-faced judge Pei Xuan, who is said to be upright and proficient in things in the yamen, and is exactly the person in charge of criminal law that Zhang San needs.
There is also a jade banner rod Meng Kang, this guy is a shipbuilder, and he is also a good talent, Zhang San now has a lot of excellent shipwrights in his hands, but there is no one who can lead everyone to engage in research and development.
It's okay to say about merchant ships, but Zhang San plans to equip a generation, reserve a generation, and research a generation on the side of the warship. Maintain the absolute superiority of the navy at any time, these shipwrights are exquisite enough, and the shipbuilding level is also master-level, but they lack innovative ideas and abilities, Zhang San feels that since he is the leader of Liangshan, he must have something extraordinary.
The remaining one Deng Fei can be regarded as an addition, Zhang San thought for a while and said: "Monkey, you send a message to Yan Qing and ask him to go to Yinmachuan, Jizhou, Hebei Province to recruit the three leaders there to come to Ryukyu." ”
This matter will be put aside for a while, Zhang San thought about it and said: "After the battle of Dengju is over, the Miaodo Islands and Jeju Island will be included in our rule, these islands are enough to house hundreds of thousands of immigrants, and those who are really unwilling to go south can settle on these islands first." ”
Zhang San asked Qian Jin again: "Can our merchant fleet complete next year's transportation requirements now?" Especially the transportation of personnel, we don't want to be troublesome if we can't get people back. ”
Qian Jin nodded and said: "According to the king's plan for sectional transportation, we have arranged temporary resettlement islands along the coast, and are currently stockpiling supplies, and now we have more than 30 large and specialized ships carrying people and more than 300 merchant ships. ”
Zhang San nodded with satisfaction These ships are enough, even if one boat can transport a thousand people at a time, then three hundred boats can transport 300,000 people, but these people can only be resettled on the nearby islands, and when the operation is over, they will be transported to various places for resettlement.
After this matter was resolved, Zhang San began to arrange the formation of a new fleet, first of all, each shipyard began to arrange production tasks, in addition to the fleet's warships, after a period of use, Qian Jin suggested that all official merchant ships should use more than 5,000 stones.
Less than 5,000 koku can be opened to the merchants on the island to use, which can also promote the development of Ryukyu trade, the government does not have to go on large ships and small boats together, should properly grasp the big and let go of the small, Zhang San heard it also makes sense, so the merchant ships began to develop to more than 5,000 koku and eliminated the ship type of 2,000 koku.
The production of warships, there are now four shipyards capable of production, the Sea Shark Island shipyard has not been expanded, and the Tamsui shipyard, Taichung and Tainan shipyards have also had shipbuilding capacity after a period of construction.
These shipyards were mainly used to produce warships, while the production of merchant ships was mainly produced by the coastal shipyards of the Great Song Dynasty controlled by Zhang San.
Therefore, the production of merchant ships is also handy, Zhang San's shipyard has been running at full capacity, the demand for sea ships in the Ryukyus, and the demand for dart ships in Weiyuan will give priority to their own shipyards, plus others see that your shipyard is booming, they will definitely be willing to book ships with you, so the business is very good.
