Chapter 239: Laying out the coast
The origin of the name of Fushan is because it is located at the foot of Fushan, and it is named after the mountain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info three miles of the city, two feet high, five feet high, four steps thick, rammed city wall, there are three gates, the city is built into the office, warehouse, temple, etc.
There are only three hundred households by the sea, there are four military villages, 18 forts, and nine military tuns, more than 2,000 hectares of land, and more than 500 garrisons of the Ming Guard.
Wu Xiang knew that the Huang family's fleet was running shipping, and he immediately understood Huang Shengxuan's purpose of winning Jiaoao, and exclaimed: "My lord is really a wonderful idea, Xia Guan admires it, and it will be much more convenient to have a sea ship supply place in Jiaoao in the future!" ”
Wu Xiang did not express embarrassment, but patiently listened to Huang Sheng's next words. Looking at the attitude of the long-legged general, Huang Sheng knew that he must have a plan in his heart, so he simply stopped knocking on the side and opened his own conditions.
"General Wu, this official has given you four hundred and eighty-seven true Japanese heads, all of them are young and strong, and the armor and weapons of the Japanese are readily available, as well as eleven thousand-pound Buddha machine artillery. The official wants to be awarded by thousands of households in Fushan, and the military attachés of the following three hundred households and four military villages are all under the command of this official. ”
Wu Xiang had a very good relationship with the Shandong Denglai Jiangmen, and many of the grain he smuggled was Denglai's military rations, and Jiaoao was too poor in the late Ming Dynasty, and there were no military attachés who intended to serve there.
The most popular locations for military attachés stationed are along the Grand Canal, and the best places are Beitongzhou, Linqing, Yangzhou, Huai'an and other wealthy places.
Huang Sheng has given such a great military merit, I don't know how many people can be promoted, and it is too simple to move the officers of Jiaoao by one and a half levels.
Those officers have the opportunity to leave the Fushan Institute, and as long as they do not go to Liaodong or other border towns, they will happily go to work.
Wu Xiang patted his chest and promised: "Lord Huang can't do things like this, isn't it in vain that he has been messing around for so many years?" You can rest assured that it will be done by the end of the year, and you will arrange for your subordinates to take office in the first month of next year. ”
Huang Sheng was determined to win Jiaoao, because the military merits of the number of beheadings of the Japanese were much worse than those of Jiajingnian, so for the convenience of Wu Xiang, he specially selected eleven guns with special specifications in the previous captured artillery to be counted as captured.
The quality and caliber of the artillery used by the Huang family must be of uniform standard, which is not only convenient for management but also easy to form combat effectiveness.
The people from all walks of life who lied about their military exploits had captured artillery, and the adults who had obtained nuclear skills couldn't help but believe that Huang Sheng wanted to achieve his goal.
Huang Sheng has no great use for keeping the head of the Japanese Kou, plus some scrap copper and rotten iron, he can get a port and a large piece of territory, and it will become a prosperous port city in the future, and the investment ratio of the Huang family and the actual benefits obtained in the later period are simply stones for gold!
Wu Xiang got so many benefits, he was too busy to cash in, so he hurriedly went to do something. He is bright and energetic, this time he can not only complete Huang Sheng's entrustment, but also take the opportunity to operate many friends to take the position, and the benefits will increase a lot in the future.
Huang Sheng is ready to promote Lu Chengzu, who is already a six-grade hundred-household rank, to go to Fushan to prepare for a thousand households, from the first batch of thirteen Liaodong Han people who came to the Huang family, and now the Huang family's heavy infantry officers select three hundred household officials to serve under Lu Chengzu, and bring five hundred households to take root there, and will immigrate to Fushan in large numbers in the future.
The road of coastal development must be taken, and the reason why the coastal cities in later generations have a strong development momentum is because of the unique transportation conditions, and the cities of the Ming Dynasty are deliberately far away from the sea, because they are afraid of being harassed by the Japanese invaders.
The Huang family regards the development of the navy as the top priority, and is not afraid of piracy at all. Taking a port city as a point can drive the common development of a large area in the vicinity.
With such a slow layout, the strength of the Huang family will gradually appear, and every port city is not afraid of the enemy to attack, because the development of a strong sailor by the Huang family is the only way.
The Huang family's fleet reinforced the besieged city from the sea, and used hot weapons such as artillery and muskets to attack the invading enemy, and no troops in the Ming Dynasty in this era could afford it.
Sent Wu Xiang away, Huang Sheng inspected the arsenal accompanied by several Scorpion Island masters, most of the craftsmen there knew the head of the family, as long as they could put down their work to say hello, Huang Sheng had not allowed the people of his system to kneel easily, and everyone hugged each other to greet each other.
Scorpion Island is in good order, the craftsmen are very motivated, flintlock pistols, artillery and vehicles for various purposes are in full production, and the inverted flame furnace of the steel mill uses coke purchased by Wu Xiang.
Because coke is too polluting to the environment, the Huang family does not do it themselves and directly buys the finished products. The Ming Dynasty had already used coke to smelt metals and was the first country in the world to use coke, while coking did not begin in Europe until the beginning of the eighteenth century.
Workers in the steel mill use pulleys to lift the crucible to pour the molten liquid steel into the mold, and when the steel is just formed and can be dragged away, it is pulled to animal power or hydraulic hammer forging, and this process increases the density of the steel with half the effort, saving the time and fuel spent on burning the steel red again.
The animal hammer is very cumbersome, that is, a steel guy of 2,000 to 6,000 catties erected by a steel support, which is converted into lifting power by a thick wire rope with a pulley block, using the pulling force provided by a few to a dozen healthy oxen, and then smashing into the steel that needs to be forged in free fall along the established track.
The working principle of several hydraulic hammers is roughly like this, the largest hydraulic hammer is six thousand catties, and the forging of the keel of the warship is completed in this way, and it takes too many pulley sets to lift, because the keel is forged from a plurality of I-beams of one zhang and five feet into ten zhang or even longer overall steel.
The steel plant is full of tracks and iron wheels, there are many gantry cranes pushed by manpower, such spreaders can use pulley sets to lift the weight of 10,000 catties, in later generations is just a five-ton level of small gantry cranes, in Daming is unique, only Huangjia Iron and Steel Plant has these big guys.
The more the forging of the all-steel keel is in the end, the greater the workload, and the scene of hundreds of blacksmiths and strong laborers sweating together is spectacular, and safety accidents are inevitable.
In the absence of firepower and electricity, it is not easy for the skilled craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty to produce the overall I-beam keel, Huang Sheng can not be demanding of perfection, only require the chief officials at all levels to emphasize safety awareness, treat the workers who died in the line of duty, and the Huang family supports all the disabled workers for a lifetime.
Zhao Shimin, who personally supervised the installation of the 'Liaodong' cannon at the dock, learned that his mentor had come to Scorpion Island and rushed to report a good news.
More than 100 double-barreled flintlock rifling rifling rifles have been produced in the arsenal, and these have been tested to fully meet the design requirements and are ready for the troops.
Huang Sheng named such a short gun 'double-barreled short gun', and the principle of manufacture and firing method were no different from the flintlock rifling gun designed by Huang Sheng.
It's just that you don't use Mini bullets, but ordinary lead bullets, the disadvantage is that it is not easy to load, and you have to use a whole strip to force it in, and the advantage is that you don't ride a horse on your waist and gallop will not let the lead bullet fall out and spill the gunpowder.
Huang Sheng believes that the 'double-barreled short gun' can theoretically quickly shoot two lead bullets at close range, which is equivalent to more than twice the combat effectiveness of his own fighters, and whether there is time to reload for the second time is not considered for the time being.
Because in recent years, Huang Sheng would avoid such short-handed battles, and such weapons were only distributed to officers from the seventh rank and above and his own personal army.
Everyone who received the 'double-barreled short gun' couldn't put it down for such a weapon, and the shooting range was full of crackling men who practiced shooting skills, even Hexiang and Zhao Rui, and Basket Caier pestered the master to ask for one, and they kept putting it every day.
In the past three months, the Huang family has shipped several hundred flintlock rifled guns, minus the scrapped ones that are now equipped with troops, and 1,200 of them have been distributed, and 100 of them have been distributed to the Huangjiawan Island Yong led by Zhao Shimin and 100 to the Xiangyong under Gu Shanhai.
