Li Yang, who was standing in the distance, had long thought that there would be different voices among the merchants, after all, there were also people who wanted to find some trouble for Miyako Island, and now Miyako Island accounted for more and more commerce in the entire region, not to mention anything else, the Nanshan Kingdom in the north was already ready to move, but under the control of all parties, there was the Zhongshan Kingdom behind him, a behemoth relative to him, and he didn't dare to make a mistake.

Greeting, the soldiers who had been prepared for a long time rushed out of the city gate, three huge wooden shelves stood up two hundred meters away from the city gate, with the sound of humming and humming, the corpses of the three Dongying people were tied to their ankles, hanging upside down and hung on the wooden shelf, the same, Li Yang, who was good at publicity, not only used the notice to explain the identity of these Dongying people, but also sent a few loud voices to shout loudly, and the content of the shouting was that these Dongying people were mad and killed for fun, I hope that everyone will report and expose whether there are still such bloodthirsty pirates and so on.

After a few days, Li Yang felt that the market seemed to be a lot more prosperous, and he didn't know if it was his illusion. When he was discussing the plan for the next period of time with Wang Hu, a soldier came in and reported: "Island owner, the corpse of the Dongying people hanging outside the city has been dried, and the internal organs have been almost eaten by the crows, this is ......."

"Take it off, take it off, it's weird to hang it outside the door, I don't say that you are really going to hang it until the New Year to eat meat." Li Yang said. Immediately, Wang Hu and the soldiers who came in to report burst into laughter.

"Island owner, our fleet is not strong enough, although the strong enemy in the north is contained by other countries, but it is still a bit hasty to attack the Ryukyus now, it is better to wait until summer to make plans." Wang Hu said.

"Well, the spring affairs are also busy now, take a break for the time being, what should I do recently, let's talk about it."

"It is very inappropriate for the combat fleet to anchor at the port of Funamura, and the overseas roundabouts must be built, so it is better to leave this matter to the next to do it, and there is still a lot of research on the things at sea in the next place." Wang Hu took the initiative to ask.

"Then this matter will trouble Brother Wang."

"In addition, it is necessary for us to form a good alliance with the Zhongshan Kingdom now, although the King of Zhongshan is naturally hostile to the King of Nanshan, but if they want to contain the Nanshan Kingdom more, we still need to lower our posture." Wang Hu suggested.

"This ......" is really unwilling, Li Yang knows that the Ryukyus that was the last unified in the Zhongshan Kingdom in history, and he still has to tie it up, he is really unwilling.

Looking at Wang Hu's serious eyes, Li Yang had no choice but to say: "Okay, let's act as an envoy at the same time when there is a caravan going up, just send two loads of salted fish to a coral." ”

In fact, Li Yang still agrees with Wang Hu's suggestion, and now only each break is the most labor-saving, and Li Yang is a nest of fire in his heart. I, Li Yang, have come to this era now, and the ocean is my ocean, and none of you want to get involved.

The dry dock in the port of Funmura is still catching up with warships, and it will be used as a dry dock for the fleet for a long time, and then it will be converted to civilian use, and the ships built will be sold to the people at low prices to encourage trade. Li Yang's wish is to hide the wealth from the people, and the current education is to cultivate the concept of country, family, and loyalty, and I believe that with a long period of subtle change, it should greatly strengthen the ideological cohesion of the people.

The other dry docks are planned to be built on the crater, which will also serve as an overhaul of ships, and further construction will naturally be followed by development. And the crater was also named Gouyu Island in recognition of Wang Gouyu's brave attack and discovery of this island, which not only made Wang Gouyu happy for a long time, but also inspired all the soldiers in the army for a long time.

You must know that the current conscription system, although the salary is not high, but it can also support the family, will be a young man's profession dedicated to half of his life, although he has not yet begun to be knighted, but there is such an honor to inspire them, everyone thinks that if they can name a place after themselves in the future, then even if they die a hundred times. Therefore, the morale of the army was boosted for a while, and the morale that was already full of morale was almost exploding.

In order to vent the passion of the soldiers who had nowhere to vent, Li Yang decided to send all the soldiers to the island of Gouyu in rotation to carry out earthwork.

As the construction of the naval base, the first is the necessary defensive measures, at the only entrance to the island of Gouji, Wang Hu imitated the pattern of the iron cable across the river, when there is nothing to do on weekdays, three large iron chains are across the channel, and only when the ships enter and exit the iron cable is untied. Originally, the channel was hidden, and this measure basically ensured that there was no way to break through this barrier without infantry landing.

The construction of the fort has also begun at the commanding heights on the island, but no suitable fortress guns have been cast now, and some small cannons do not have much practical effect on the protection of the island, after all, it is only two or three hundred meters of range, and the shells have no strength to fall as soon as they hit the island. So now the battery only rammed the foundation, but just in case two small cannons were lined up on both sides of the entrance to the island.

In the bay of the island, the actual usable area is not large, but an arc-shaped beach more than a kilometer long, but saving a little land is definitely enough for Li Yang's navy now.

The beach is already paved with stones, a pier that has not yet taken shape is about to extend into the bay, and several fortune boats have been going back and forth between Funamura Port and Gouyu Island every day in recent days just to transport stones, but fortunately, the mining industry in the Ryukyu Islands and its surroundings is still quite developed, and the supply of stones is not only sufficient but also cheap, but it is necessary to organize some people to use the three-wheeled transport vehicles made by the bicycle factory to pull stones back and forth to the Funamura Port.

On one side of the wharf, two large dams have been encircled, about 50 meters wide and nearly 100 meters long, the soldiers are working in full swing one by one in the early spring, the white gas coming out of their bodies is steaming, the piling is piling, the stone is carrying the stone, the workload is not small, and it is all for home use, and there is no exchange of project funds, all according to the best, and there is no corruption. It's just not something that can be built in one go.

In terms of the formation of the fleet, Li Yang weighed it for a long time, and there were only six ships that he could use in the number of bars, and the one under construction in the dock would not come out until at least next month, but five of them were Dafu ships that were more suitable for transportation, and only the one that he grabbed in Manila was originally used as a warship. It's a real headache how many ships should be placed in this naval base now.

Li Yang felt as if he was holding his fingers, counting his total of three steamed buns, whether it was better to eat one in the morning and two in the evening, or two in the morning and one at night, completely asking for trouble, but he had to think carefully.

In the end, it was Wang Hu, a young man, who woke up the dreamer with a word: "Before our base is built, it is estimated that the fleet will be able to go back to Daming again, and the money earned can directly buy a few of these twenty-meter-long fast ships." Li Yangcai patted his head, anyway, the port has not been built yet, and it is indeed too early to think about the fleet now, the most important thing is to contact the overseas Chinese on Ryukyu Island first, and other things are at least after the summer.
