Chapter 115: Building a True Navy (Part II)
The mentality of these recruits is very good, and there are many families who are already very poor, but they are soldiers, and their monthly military salary can support two or three people. If you www.biquge.info save a little bit of a family, even five or six people are not a problem.
Two days later, the crowd arrived at the mouth of the Pearl River. The center of the Pearl River is very large, hundreds of miles wide, stretching all the way to the South Sea, and the water area is large enough to be said to be endless.
Li Zhongju looked at the incomparably vast Pearl River estuary in front of him, and felt very good in his heart. The navy can be trained here for a preliminary period of time, and as long as it trains here for two months, it is completely possible to enter the South Seas for training.
As long as the navy can gallop in the South Seas, then there is no place in the world that cannot be found.
Li Zhongju looked at Li Xiang and Li Shen in front of him, and a sense of pride arose, with such two powerful generals here, why worry about the navy not being strong.
At the same time, Li Zhongju looked at the 10,000 recruits, all of them were radiant and in good spirits. This is the posture of a strong soldier. Unlike the current Qing army, they either smoke big cigarettes, or eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. Without much combat effectiveness, you can bully ordinary people.
Li Zhongju then ordered the army to go towards the naval base, which was not established for a long time, only for a month, and so many people might not be able to live.
But it didn't matter, the army had all their tents anyway. There are six thousand people recruited at this naval base a month ago, and about a thousand people from the original.
With the arrival of Li Zhongju and the rest of the army, countless pleasures were added to this naval base.
Li Zhongju stood on the high platform and shouted to the army, "You are all good soldiers, you are not afraid of difficulties and dangers, you are brave to forge ahead, pioneering and innovative, and dedicate your youth to the strong rejuvenation of our Chinese nation, you are all the most lovely people." ”
The army immediately became excited, they did not expect the commander to praise themselves so much.
Li Zhongju then announced to the army that the 7,000 men were divided into two parts, one under the command of Li Xiang and the other by Li Shen. At the same time, 10,000 recruits, Li Xiang, each received 5,000.
It took Li Zhongju and the others a whole day to deal with the specific matters.
Of course, on this day, an unpleasant thing also happened, that is, this former commander did not want to obey Li Zhongju's orders, thinking that he had the greatest credit, and even according to his seniority, at least he should be the commander of a large army.
But how could Li Zhongju agree, and then Li Zhongju asked a few things about naval construction and naval warfare, and the general didn't know anything.
Li Zhongju pointed at the general's nose and scolded, "Just a waste like you, you don't understand anything, and you still want to be a commander, you think the war is child's play, you think this is the Qing army, you think you don't understand anything, you can command tens of thousands of troops?" ”
The general was still unconvinced, "Aren't all the Qing armies like this now?" ”
When this sentence came out, Li Zhongju pondered for a long time, it seems that he has not paid much attention to the navy, and a general still has this kind of deep-rooted thinking.
Li Zhongju finally relieved him of his reins and told him to get out. Later, Li Zhongju personally appointed Li Xiang and Li Shen as naval governors. The resignation in front of the three armies, everyone can only obey.
Of course, Li Zhongju believes that as long as Li Xiang and Li Shen are given a period of time, the two will definitely be able to convince the public and lead the navy on a successful road.
At the same time, Li Zhongju also saw this naval base, and there was only one ironclad ship, and the rest were old-fashioned sailing ships.
On the second day, Li Zhongju took Li Xiang and Li Shen, of course, Xiaomei was always by Li Zhongju's side. The four of them drove a clipper into the distance, and the speed was shocking. This was actually done by Li Zhongju using the super acceleration of the battleship system.
Three hours later, the four of them came to a place, and Li Zhongju began the detection system of the warship system, and found no other ship activity within 500 miles.
Li Zhongju immediately asked Xiaomei to start preparing to take out six battleships and twenty ironclad ships, as well as dozens of clippers from the battleship system.
Of course, Xiaomei was very happy, Xiaomei waved her hand, accompanied by an earth-shaking sound.
Boom, boom......
Every loud sound, a battleship or ironclad will fall to the water, of course, each battleship is equipped with a corresponding robot, although it is not enough, but it is enough to open the battleship or ironclad.
With the last clipper ship down, the voyage was a success, and now it was a matter of getting the battleships and ironclads and clippers back to the naval base.
Li Zhongju then ordered all the warships to sail towards the naval base. Along the way, the momentum was magnificent, and everyone's mood was very high, Li Zhongju roughly estimated that there were almost 1,600 robots in total.
However, this time the storage resources of the battleship system have almost been exhausted. But Li Zhongju was not distressed at all, after all, he got a lot this time, and Li Zhongju was very satisfied.
When Li Zhongju led such a huge team of warships back to the naval base, everyone was shocked and dumbfounded.
It's true!?
How is this possible!
But after that, they were ecstasy, yes, ecstasy, and they finally knew that the king of Zhennan was not only strong in the army, but also in the navy, which would definitely become a nightmare for all countries in the world.
A month after Li Zhongju's order, Li Shen led his fleet to Hainan to establish a base, and it was here that Li Xiang continued to improve the naval base.
Then Li Zhongju handed over the rest of the matter to Li Xiang and Li Shen, and Li Zhongju was convinced that the two of them could handle it well, after all, this was a high-level talent from later generations.
From Li Ran, Li Zhongju has seen the power of these intelligent brain robots.
Li Zhongju led Xiaomei and dozens of relatives to rush towards Guangzhou at night, because Li Zhongju felt as if something big was going to happen.
Although Li Zhongju didn't know what would happen, as long as he returned to Guangzhou, even if anything big happened, Li Zhongju would have the ability to solve it.
Drive, drive, drive......
The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and an old man sat on the side of the road to rest, he listened to the sound of horses' hooves so eagerly, and immediately stood up and retreated to the side of the road, he did not dare to continue to lie in the middle of the road to rest.
But Li Zhongju didn't notice it, or rather, they were anxious. However, when the old man saw that it was the cavalry of the independent regiment, he still showed a knowing smile.
Finally, on November 28, Li Zhongju rushed back to the palace, Wang Wu heard that Li Zhongju was back, and immediately shushed the cold and asked for warmth, Li Zhongju asked Wang Wu if anything big had happened recently.
Wang Wu told Li Zhongju that everything was normal and nothing major happened. After Li Zhongju heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
