Gu San Mazi walked on the "Yu Qian" with great strides, looking at the blue sea and blue sky, looking very energetic. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Heiwa, who also changed into a military uniform on the side, couldn't help but smile and said: "Boss, you are also the chief military officer now, and you are also the number one officer in the entire Ming Dynasty." ”

"That's, don't forget, your boss I am now the chief officer of the Praetorian Guard, not the chief officer of the border army who only knows farming, this is the commander of the forbidden army of His Majesty the Emperor in ancient times, doesn't the drama say that Lin Chong is the head of the 800,000 forbidden army, hehe, what is a leader!"

Gu San Mazi said proudly with a thumbs up.

"Then say so, boss, you have become a senior lieutenant now, robbed Lin Chong's wife's father in Gao Yanei, haha", this black baby and Gu San Mazi are also brothers who are in the same trouble, although they have now become members of the court and have become superiors and subordinates, but they have not become rusty, so this black baby dares to make fun of Gu San Mazi directly.

Gu San Mazi is not a person who holds grudges, and he will not hold grudges against his brothers, but he doesn't like to suffer, so he hurriedly went back and said: "What is Captain Gao, I don't have that qualification, I can only be regarded as the commander of the forbidden army, if you want to say that Captain Gao, Lu Ge is the old man, he is in charge of the military department and the Praetorian Guard, and he is still a member of the cabinet, do you say that he is considered a captain." ”

"Ahem, Chief Officer Gu, please pay attention to your words!"

The cough is the chief law enforcement officer of the South China Sea Fleet, Rong Kun, who commands the affairs of the Jinyi Guard, this person is a graduate of the second phase of the Royal Military Academy, and now after being appointed as the chief law enforcement officer of the South China Sea Fleet, he became famous for directly killing several officers who stepped on the green seedlings of the people, this person once whipped Gu San Mazi in the Military Academy, Gu San Mazi hated this evil very much, but he was helpless, seeing that he reminded himself with a cold face, Gu San Mazi also regretted his words, so he shut his mouth, but he was not in the mood to be in the mood anymore.

Heiwa also left the "Yu Qian" in a huff and went to her own command ship.

Since the first one was named after "Zheng He", Zhu Youxiao simply ordered that in the future, the new warships would be named after the Wenchen military generals who had created great feats in the Ming Dynasty, and it could be regarded as an encouragement to the later generations to continue to establish meritorious deeds for the Ming Dynasty and shine for a thousand years.

However, due to the improvement of alloy materials and the improvement of the precision of some parts, the steam engine cylinder of the "Yu Qian" has a higher degree of confidentiality and high temperature resistance, and the speed is a little faster than that of the "Zheng He", but it is not fast enough, after all, before the appearance of the first steam-powered warship and the first ironclad warship, the current technical improvements are only small-scale improvements, which are not big breakthroughs.

Even if the current scientific and technological development of the Ming Dynasty has entered the fast lane, more and more trained craftsmen and apprentices have entered the Royal Academy of Sciences and the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Ordnance Department for research, and the total number of scientific and technological talents has exceeded the 10,000 mark, but it is still difficult to directly enter an era, and the breakthrough of a warship needs to be a breakthrough in steel smelting, machine tool making, precision instrument manufacturing and fuel improvement to promote his breakthrough.

But now many technical fields of Daming have encountered bottlenecks, although there are more and more applied research results based on steam power, but basic research has caused the current knowledge derailment because of the previous unsteady road, and many basic research can only rely on a few talented geniuses to support, such as Song Yingxing, Xu Guangqi, etc.

As now, the Ming Dynasty at this time did not have a systematic theoretical project, of course, this is also related to the fact that the scientific and technological progress of the Ming Dynasty was too dependent on Zhu Youxiao's doctrine, and what information was purchased from the system when he thought of it, and he paid great attention to practicality but neglected to consolidate the scientific theoretical foundation of the Ming Dynasty from the theoretical knowledge little by little.

Now, Zhu Youxiao has no choice but to ask major research institutions, especially the Royal Academy of Sciences, to increase the collation and systematization of all kinds of scientific and technological theoretical knowledge, and so that it can be popularized to every scientific and technological worker.

Therefore, it is difficult to rely on the science and technology of the entire Ming Dynasty to have a big breakthrough in the short term, but as long as the original disordered scientific theoretical achievements of the Ming Dynasty are sorted out and classified, there will be more and more professional geniuses to join in the meantime, and as long as the theory breaks through a little, the application can make a big breakthrough.

For example, knowledge of electricity and aerodynamics may appear in Daming in the near future.

……

But at this moment, the soldiers on the "Yu Qian" who were in charge of looking at the enemy situation in the distance and observing it suddenly fired three white phosphorus bombs.

Seeing this, Gu San Mazi also hurriedly took out the monocular in his hand to watch, but found that countless enemy ships appeared at the junction of water and sky in the distance, and the "Zheng" flag was blatantly erected.

"Chief officer, there are more than 100 enemy ships found ahead!" At this time, the sentinel ship also rushed to report the enemy situation to Gu Sanmazi.

"I've seen it all, this Zheng family is really bold, last time in the Ryukyus wanted to eat our North Sea First Fleet but was broken by us, but now I want to eat our South China Sea Fleet can't succeed, it seems that Li Ge didn't give him any memory when he scolded him in Quanzhou last time",

While Gu San Mazi was talking, the governor of the South China Sea Fleet also came over and asked anxiously: "Chief Officer Gu, do you think you should immediately raise the alarm and immediately carry out first-level combat preparations?" ”

"It's not in a hurry, these Zheng family fleets don't seem to have any intention of fighting, otherwise they wouldn't have been downwind, but more like they came to meet us", Gu San Mazi put away the monoculars as he spoke, and then ordered someone to bring the map.

The so-called map is a military map recompiled by the Ministry of War based on the intelligence of Jinyiwei and the whole map of Kunyu Wanguo, in which many new elements have been added, and what reefs and reefs are also clearly marked.

While Gu San Mazi was watching, the other officers on the Yu Qian also gathered around and asked, "Chief Officer Gu, this Zheng family's fleet doesn't just want to scare us, right?" ”

"Don't you just want to scare Lao Tzu back, does this Zheng Zhilong really think that I, Gu San Mazi, are rats, and I will retreat when I see him in this formation", Gu San Mazi said and ordered: "Pass my order, don't worry about this Zheng family's fleet first, speed up, and pass the chicken coop first!" ”

As a result, the warships of the South China Sea Fleet completely ignored Zheng Zhibao's fleet and still accelerated towards the south.

And Zheng Zhibao's fleet also followed, biting the South China Sea Fleet.

"The Zheng family's fleet seems to be haunted," one officer complained.

And Gu San Mazi couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry about him, notify him, change the direction after the chicken coop, and rush to Luzon first." ”

"Chief Soldier, we are going to Liangguang, why are we going further south?" The officer couldn't help but ask.

"Hmph, don't lead this Zheng family's fleet away, how can I eat him, eat him in front of his house, what if Zheng Zhilong is in a hurry", Gu San Mazi said with a smile.
