In the following half a month, Zhang San continued to adjust personnel arrangements and improve various institutions, first of all, after Xu Guanzhong became familiar with the Ryukyu military system, he put forward his first suggestion, that is, to continue to expand the scale of the navy.

Next year, the size of the navy will be at least doubled, and the number of ships will be expanded to more than 200 to deal with the counterattack of the Zhao and Song sailors, and at the same time, warships can be dispatched to suppress all routes.

Zhang San originally planned to expand the scale of the army next year, but after listening to his suggestion, he seriously considered it, and it was true that the advantage of his navy was still not obvious enough, and since he should establish absolute superiority based on this.

How many ships did the Great Song have? How many ships can be built? No one knows, but during the Battle of Yashan at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty participated in more than 1,000 warships, and the Yuan participated in more than 400 warships, so many problems can be inferred from this.

The Song army is said to have participated in the war with more than 200,000 people, and there are 200 people in one boat, so the big ships in the Song army's fleet may be ships of more than 1,000 stones.

The Northern Song Dynasty had developed maritime trade and a large number of shipyards, but the warships in the naval division may not be able to surpass the Southern Song Dynasty.

So how many ships were there that could be used for combat in the naval divisions of the Northern Song Dynasty? I'm afraid that there are only a few hundred ships of the Dengzhou Navy Division, and tens of thousands of sailors can be worthy of a battle, and the rest are only more than ten ships, and one or two ships at the least.

It takes three to five months to build a fleet and build ships, it takes at least three months to train sailors, and it takes at least half a year to form combat effectiveness, so Zhang San has always felt that he can control the coast of the Great Song Dynasty with more than a hundred warships.

However, Xu Guanzhong did tell Zhang San from the deduction that the first step was for Zhang San to control the coastal area of the Great Song Dynasty, and there would be no problem with this, and Zhang San's main enemies were scattered pirates and some merchant ships.

The second step is that the naval divisions from all over the country will go out of the port to clear the Ryukyu naval divisions, and at this stage, the warships and personnel of the naval divisions from all over the Great Song Dynasty must not be Zhang San's opponent, so Zhang San can also achieve absolute superiority in the second stage.

In the third stage, if the naval divisions in various places fail, the imperial court will inevitably be furious, and the first will send special personnel to suppress the bandits, and the second will order the local governments to strengthen coastal defense, and then all localities will definitely build warships.

Cities with developed shipbuilding industries such as Hangzhou, Ningbo, Quanzhou, Fuzhou, and Jiankang have the ability to build more than 100 large ships in a batch.

Therefore, in order to deal with this situation, Zhang San not only had to maintain a main fleet of more than 100 ships to deal with the encirclement and suppression, but also left enough forces in various places to deal with the rising sailors in various places.

Therefore, if the scale of more than 100 ships is maintained now, I am afraid that it will be dragged down by Zhao Song's main force at that time, and win time for the recovery of sailors in other regions, and then Zhao Song's main force will continue to have new ships joining, then it may become a protracted war.

It is more likely that after Zhao Song absorbed the advantages of Ryukyu sea ships, he specialized in the production of ship types to deal with Ryukyu warships, and then entered the stage of stalemate, and finally Zhao Song dragged the Ryukyu naval army to death with his huge size and developed shipbuilding industry.

Zhang San listened to Xu Guanzhong's deduction, this is simply about protracted warfare, and after being shocked by his talent, Zhang San asked a question: "What Mr. said is true, but I now have 100 warships in the Ryukyus, and there are more than 100 merchant ships, where do the sailors come from?" ”

Xu Guanzhong looked at Zhang San and said: "There are four sources, the first is to strengthen the raiding of the fishing villages along the coast of the Great Song Dynasty, the second is to draw from the merchant fleet, the third is to recruit from the islanders, and the fourth is to amnesty some slaves. ”

Zhang San asked, "Do you mean the group of people who were captured in the last Battle of Jiushan and the Battle of the Fujian Road Navy?" ”

Xu Guanzhong nodded and said: "I looked through their files, except for some of the most heinous people, everyone else can be amnesty, and I, the new establishment of the Ryukyus, should celebrate the amnesty of the whole world." ”

Zhang San asked with some hesitation: "Most of these people are officers and soldiers or sailors, whose families are all in the Great Song Dynasty, and if they are boldly incorporated into the navy, I am afraid that there will be deserters?" ”

Xu Guanzhong looked at Zhang San strangely, according to Zhang San's previous style of acting, Zhang San should understand, Zhang San was just stunned for a moment and said: "You mean to give these people a chance, as long as they are willing to take their families to Ryukyu, they can be exempted?" ”

Xu Guanzhong nodded and said: "Exactly, in this way, not only can we increase a part of the population on the island, but also get tens of thousands of experienced sailors, it is enough to have slaves captured by Ryukyu and Luzon on the island, and it is inevitable that people will be criticized for using Han people as slaves." ”

Zhang San nodded and said: "Very good, then do it, as long as the family is willing to come to the Ryukyus, they will be amnesty, distributed fields and rations, and the missing slaves will continue to be captured from Luzon." ”

Xu Guanzhong suggested: "In fact, when it comes to the selection of slaves, the savages can't help but be uneducated, and can only do some vulgar work. ”

Zhang San nodded, this is indeed the truth, all the jobs on the island that require a little skill can only be done by the tens of thousands of Han slaves, and now if the Han slaves are released, a lot of work may really be slowed down.

Zhang San asked, "Then where do you think slaves are more suitable?" ”

Xu Guanzhong thought about it and said: "Since the Tang Dynasty, Kunlun's female Silla maid has been widely spread, all because the people of the two countries are docile and easy to discipline, Kunlun is thousands of miles away, but Goryeo is indeed by our side now." ”

Xu Guanzhong said happily: "The Goryeo people have always admired our Han culture, but the Chinese people are arrogant, incorruptible and shameful, and waver between the Liao and Song dynasties in the Qin and Twilight dynasties. ”

Zhang San nodded, this is indeed a good slave production area, and it just so happens that he also has ideas about Jeju Island, so it is better to solve it together, but the Goryeo people have entered the agricultural society and established a complete state system, which is indeed much more civilized than the savages.

Moreover, now the total population of Goryeo is only two or three million, and it is completely effortless for Jang San to clean up, and with Jeju as a springboard, the Japanese people who are more suitable for being slaves are close at hand.

These two countries can provide themselves with at least five million more slaves. Sufficient for their own development needs in the early and middle periods, and even the development of Luzon could be solved with these slaves.

Since the Americas can build plantations, and Zhang San can also build plantations in Southeast Asia, it is only necessary to prevent the expansion of their ethnic groups and prohibit them from marrying and raising offspring, so that these two ethnic groups will only appear in the history books in a hundred years.

The more Zhang San thought about it, the happier he became, he used to only think about Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom as a place to plunder and replenish slaves, but now he thinks that he can regard them as the vanguard of the development of the southeast, and when the time comes, these islands can be developed and the Han people can be emigrated on a large scale. 10
