After such a long time of research and development, after repeated tests, Song Yingxing is sure that in the near future, it can be successfully developed in the true sense, and the performance is very stable smokeless gunpowder. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

If there is smokeless powder with very stable performance, it will be revolutionary, precisely because there is no smokeless powder with stable performance, all along, the use of black powder, whether it is copper shell shells, grenades, or artillery shells, all are black powder, if there is smokeless powder with stable performance, it will be completely different!

Li Zicheng has already entered Shaanxi and Shanxi, and it is estimated that he will leave Tongguan in a few months, and then attack Beijing, and the fall of the Ming Dynasty is not far away.

If there is smokeless gunpowder with stable performance, Zhang Feng will participate in the world competition, which will increase the weight of the chips.

Before Zhang Feng left the Shanghai Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, he said happily: "Old Song, do a good job, I am waiting for your good news." ”

…………

Matsue Prefecture, General Headquarters.

As soon as he heard that there was a major military situation, Zhang Feng acted quickly, immediately left the Shanghai Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, where he had stayed for many days, took a train from Shanghai Station, and soon came to Songjiang Mansion.

It's really convenient to have a train, it's easy and fast, Zhang Feng has a little expectation, and when the Shanghai-Nanjing railway is repaired, what will it look like.

Shanghai-Nanjing Railway, Shanghai Railway Station to Nanjing Xiaguan Station, a total length of more than 300 kilometers, however, the Shanghai to Changzhou section has been completed and opened to traffic, equivalent to nearly half of the project, the remaining only more than 100 kilometers, is currently under construction.

In tens of thousands of people, plus tens of thousands of coolies, the Shanghai-Nanjing railway is being built, and the progress is relatively fast, and even, in order to meet the needs, two cement factories have been built in one go.

The Shanghai-Nanjing railway will consume a total of nearly 30,000 tons of steel, nearly half of which has been built and opened to traffic, and the remaining more than 100 kilometers will consume 10,000 thousands of tons just now, as well as a large amount of cement.

As soon as Zhang Feng got off the train, there were already guards waiting for Zhang Feng at the train station, the carriage was ready, Zhang Feng got on the train, and soon came to the general headquarters.

Zhang Feng got out of the carriage, and as soon as he walked into the commander-in-chief's hall, Zhang Feng found that Wang Chaoyong, Meng Mingzhao, Zhao Weibin, Xu Liangyi and others were already waiting there.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief!"

Seeing Zhang Feng come in, everyone stood up and said hello in unison, Zhang Feng waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down, the general situation Zhang Feng was already clear, and the specific situation must wait for Xu Liangyi to report in person.

Zhang Feng said: "Lao Xu, tell me about the specific situation at that time. ”

Xu Liangyi immediately recounted the situation of passing through the Taiwan Strait a few days ago, especially focusing on the encounter with Zheng Zhilong's fleet and the sea battle between the two sides.

After everyone heard Xu Liangyi finish explaining the situation, Navy Commander Zhao Weibin said: "Commander-in-chief, this is the first naval battle between us and Zheng Zhilong. ”

Zhang Feng nodded, "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Meng Mingzhao pondered for a moment, and then said: "Childe, I think that sooner or later there will be a big war between us and Zheng Zhilong, and one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, this is an eternal truth. ”

"If you want to fight, let's fight!" Zhang Feng said: "Commander Zhao, prepare for a big battle, if you want to fight, you must play with momentum, and you must win." ”

"Yes!" Zhao Weibin said: "We must win, even if the number of other warships is many times greater than ours, we must win this big battle." ”

Zheng Zhilong is very powerful, controlling the Taiwan Strait, as well as a large area of the sea centered on Taiwan, and even in the South China Sea, he is very active, and there is often a fleet of Zheng Zhilong.

Zhang Feng's navy's main activities were in the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea, and with the development of the navy, as Xu Liangyi's ocean-going fleet became more and more trade-bound, it was necessary to develop southward.

If Zheng Zhilong does not hinder Zhang Feng's development, does not interfere with Zhang Feng's fleet, does not collect the so-called protection fee, and allows Zhang Feng's fleet to pass through the Taiwan Strait smoothly, Zhang Feng will also uphold the principle of not violating the river water from the well, and will not have friction with Zheng Zhilong, let alone a big war.

Zheng Zhilong's fleet also often traveled back and forth to Japan, and often passed through the sea areas controlled by Zhang Feng, such as often passing through the East China Sea, Zhang Feng did not stop it, let alone collect the so-called protection fee of Zheng Zhilong's fleet, Zhang Feng has always adhered to the principle that well water does not violate river water.

However, Zheng Zhilong was not like this, he actually sent more than a dozen warships to forcibly block Xu Liangyi's fleet, and wanted to forcibly board the ship for inspection, asking Xu Liangyi to pay the so-called protection fee, each ship was as high as three thousand taels, if it wasn't for Xu Liangyi's proper command and making full use of the speed advantage of the steam-powered ship, it is estimated that it has been sunk by the other party, or controlled.

Outrageous!

A big war is inevitable!

Then let's fight!

Zhang Feng was prepared in his heart, and asked Zhao Weibin to fight, to fight, to play majestic, to play momentum, and to win in one battle.

……….

Quanzhou, Anping Town.

Zheng Zhilong strained his face, walking around the hall of his mansion, thinking, measuring, the number of generals standing next to him, his head slightly lowered, and he didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, as if he was afraid of disturbing Zheng Zhilong's thinking.

Just now, Zheng Zhilong was furious and dragged a military general out and cut it down, this military general was a few days ago, leading more than a dozen warships to intercept Xu Liangyi's fleet, and lost the battle, Zheng Zhilong was furious and cut this military general without hesitation.

The other generals, afraid that Zheng Zhilong's anger would spread to themselves, lowered their heads, and the entire meeting hall was very quiet, only the footsteps of Zheng Zhilong walking around.

After a long time, Zheng Zhilong said slowly: "At this time, we must not bear it, from today onwards, the entire Taiwan Strait will be blocked, and all ships that find Zhang Feng will be sunk!" ”

It can be seen that Zheng Zhilong is ready to be ruthless.

A military general said boldly: "General, all along, we have ships to and from Hido, Japan, through the sea area controlled by Zhang Feng, Zhang Feng has not stopped it, nor has he charged the cost of our ships, I suggest that the big things are small, and the small things are turned into small things, and the well water between the two sides does not interfere with the river water." ”

"Humph!" Zheng Zhilong snorted heavily, looking very dissatisfied, seeing this just now, where did he dare to say anything, and hurriedly lowered his head.

Zheng Zhilong is a hero, the master who can even be defeated by the East India Company, how can he just forget it, what he thinks about in his mind is how to take this breath and how to teach Zhang Feng a lesson.

Seeing that Zheng Zhilong was unhappy, he snorted heavily, and a military general said: "General, Zhang Feng's fleet is often active south of the Ryukyus, as well as in the waters northeast of Taiwan, that area is not far from us, should we send a fleet to seek fighters in that area, and have a good fight against the majesty of the surname Zhang." ”

The port of Naha in the Ryukyus is under the control of Zhang Feng, there is also the Naha military port there, and the ships of the navy are often active in the large sea area south of the port of Naha, which belongs to the southern part of the East China Sea, and Zheng Zhilong's fleet is also often active in that area, which belongs to the intersection of the spheres of influence of the two sides.

Hearing this, Zheng Longzhi immediately agreed: "Yes, just seek fighters in that area to fight a dozen of the prestige surnamed Zhang, General Pi, this time you will personally lead the team, and you must win the battle." ”

The military general who came up with the idea just now is surnamed Pi, called Pi Minghai, and is one of the several major naval generals under Zheng Zhilong, Pi Minghai probably wanted to meet Zhang Feng's fleet for a while, and immediately said confidently: "General, don't worry, I will definitely win." ”

Zheng Zhilong said: "Bring more warships, I heard that the surname Zhang is a steam-powered ship, no sails, you have to be careful, don't underestimate the enemy." ”

Pi Minghai said confidently: "General, don't worry, the number of ships surnamed Zhang is not much, it is estimated that there are only twenty or thirty, we dispatched several times their number of warships, surrounded them, opened fire together, and sank all the ships surnamed Zhang in one fell swoop." ”

Zheng Longzhi has many warships, up to hundreds, far overwhelming Zhang Feng in terms of quantity, and many of Zheng Longzhi's warships and artillery are relatively advanced, belonging to the very advanced artillery of this era, the warships have fierce firepower and a large number, no wonder Pi Minghai is so confident and so sure.

Now that it has been decided, soon, Piming Sea is in charge, and a few days later, a huge fleet, with nearly 100 warships, large and small, swept out of Quanzhou and sailed in the direction of Naha Military Port, ready to look for opportunities in the sea area south of Naha Military Port.

………

General Headquarters.

Zhang Feng also knew that one mountain could not tolerate two tigers, and sooner or later there would be a battle between him and Zheng Zhilong, so Zhang Feng ordered Zhao Weibin to prepare for a big battle.

The current navy has grown to tens of thousands of people, and there are three ironclad ships, and the fourth and fifth ironclad ships will soon be delivered to the navy after such a long period of construction.

However, Zhang Feng knew that Zheng Zhilong should not be underestimated, and the underlying intelligence showed that Zheng Zhilong had more than 1,000 ships, including hundreds of warships, and his warships occupied an overwhelming advantage in numbers.

Zhang Feng's principle is very simple, since you want to fight, then let's fight, but there is one point, you must win, play the prestige of your navy, and fight until Zheng Zhilong is afraid and makes him jealous.

Since there was going to be a war sooner or later, Zhang Feng no longer had any worries, and clearly told Zhao Weibin to fight a good battle and play the prestige of the navy.

Even, just now, Zhang Feng summoned Zhao Weibin and a large group of naval officers, and everyone had a good meeting and settled the matter.

After the meeting, Zhang Feng walked out of the large conference room and walked into the back hall of the commander-in-chief, ready to drink a little tea, take a break, and sort out his thoughts by the way.

Zhang Feng just sat down in the back hall, and soon a servant came, carrying the soaked dragon well into the back hall hall, this orderly soldier was actually a female soldier, as soon as he entered the back hall, he saw Zhang Feng sitting there, the female soldier was shocked.

"Bang!"

The teacups and teapots in their hands all fell to the ground and shattered, the female soldier looked at Zhang Feng blankly, Zhang Feng also recognized the female soldier, and said in surprise: "It's you!" ”
