After leaving Taiping, Zheng Kezang's fleet returned all the way to the west, but after passing through the mouth of the lake, it turned into Poyang Lake, at this time Poyang Lake is the second largest lake in China, although it is not as vast as 800 miles of Dongting, but the entire lake area is almost 700 miles in such a vast area, coupled with the thousands of small islands and sandbars dotted around Huzhou, creating a complex and changeable environment in the lake area

However, Poyang Lake is the center of the connection between the Ganjiang River waterway and the Yangtze River, and for the Huaxia Dynasty, which has a deep understanding of the efficiency of water transportation, it is of course more important than that of previous dynasties, so the Yangtze River Naval Division placed a fleet in Poyang Lake to escort the bandits

Don't look at it as just a fleet, but the establishment of the inland water division is very different from the foreign water division, because the largest gunboat equipped by the river water division is only 3,000 materials, equipped with sixteen two-inch light guns, but it is the size of the first-class letter ship of the foreign water division, and the firepower of the third-class cruise ship, since the combat power of a single ship cannot be compared with the foreign water division, the river water division can only make up for it with quantity. Therefore, the entire Yangtze River Inland River Naval Division was equipped with a total of 216 large and small red single gunboats, 72 eight- and six-oared sloop sentry ships, and 66 brig brigs for the five fleets that patrolled the Yangtze River, Jingjiang, Dongting, Poyang, and Hanshui, and the total number of warships exceeded the total number of the Sanyang Fleet except for the Pearl River Fleet of the Western Naval Division

"Saint, the marshal of the Poyang fleet of the inland river division Chang Tianyuan led the team to meet him"

Chang Tianyuan is also a protégé of the Son of Heaven in the Jiayin period of the Tongzi Battalion, and he joined the army in any class of the Western Naval Division before, and his greatest wish at that time was to be able to become the commander of the fleet in the future, but he never thought that his dream would come true, but he was transferred from the Foreign Naval Division to the bathhouse of the Inland Water Division

Although he was unwilling, but the position in the water division was like this, a radish and a pit, he didn't complain too much, but there were still ideas that should be there, and this didn't Zheng Kezhang go out on patrol to give him a chance to show his face

"Compensation Hou" Zheng Kezhang obviously remembered Chang Tianyuan's "Let him board the ship and see your majesty"

"The founding uncle commanded the fleet of the inland water division to guard the mouth of Poyang Lake, and the minister Chang Tianyuan knocked to see my emperor, long live, long live" Chang Tianyuan, who came from the flagship to a small boat, soon appeared on the imperial boat, "The saint drove to Poyang Lake, the minister was sincerely afraid, and did not dare to slack off, and now he led the Xingzi Water Village garrison to come to defend it"

Just like the coastal town guard, the inland river water division also has more than a dozen water army bases for berthing supply and maintenance in the defense area, Xingzi Water Village is one of them, however, because the focus of the military expenditure of the Huaxia Water Division is the foreign water division, so the inland river water village has not been upgraded to the town guard house by the Ministry of War, and the water village garrison is not the establishment of the Fubo Army, generally speaking, the fourth division of the Longxiang Army provides defense The internal river water division is responsible for the maintenance of the water supply ships, but at present, the fourth division of the Longxiang Army has been transferred to Japan to fight, That's why there was no garrison and a thousand generals came to see it

"Get up and speak" and wait for Chang Tianyuan to get up, Zheng Kezhang said again, "To the flags of the ships, the heart of the loyal king, I have already realized" The signal flag on the imperial boat immediately put Zheng Kezang's original words out, and soon the sound of the mountain shouting long live faintly came from the ships, in response, Zheng Kezhang responded by standing on the deck of the imperial boat and receiving the cheers, until the cheers slowly disappeared before returning to the cabin "Charge, this year's Chizhou Jiangcao, the ranking of the Poyang Lake fleet is not in the forefront."

The Chizhou River Drill is a routine drill held by the Yangtze River Inland Water Division in August every year, and there are many items such as changing formations and shooting targets with live ammunition, which can also be regarded as internal competition

Chang Tianyuan took office in June this year, and in just two months, he naturally can't blame the problem on his head, but how can Zheng Kezhang remember everything clearly, so this time he let Chang Tianyuan sit on the wax, but he can't explain to Zheng Kezhang that this is none of my business, it is the responsibility of the predecessor

Therefore, Chang Tianyuan could only smile bitterly and said: "It is the minister who has lived up to the high expectations of the saint, please rest assured that the minister will redouble his management of the department, if he can't sit on the two and look at one in the coming year, the minister is willing to accept the punishment."

Zheng Kezhang was still satisfied with Chang Tianyuan's statement, so he nodded and said: "If Qing is determined, I will rest assured, if the Poyang fleet can really stand out next year, I will personally award Qing a medal."

Huaxia's medal is different from the previous dynasties, it is more like Taixi's medal, and Chang Tianyuan is naturally like a chicken blood, so Zheng Kezhang further asked: "Can the bandits in Poyang Lake be controlled?" "Back to the saints, there was no big war when Jiangxi changed hands, so there were not too many Li people displaced, so the banditry is not too heavy, since the establishment of the Poyang Lake fleet, it has also been cleaned up many times on the lake bandits, and now although there are no more bandits, there are only some sporadic lake bandits, more than two or three people, but no more than three hundred stones, no more than three hundred stones."

Chang Tianyuan deliberately omitted one point in order to show the merits of the Yangtze River inland water division, that is, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zheng Kezhang ordered the permanent exemption of fishing tax (tax) and only the market tax (transaction tax), which greatly improved the livelihood of fishermen, and naturally further stabilized people's hearts, so that the lake bandits lost the channel of replenishment of personnel

Of course, Chang Tianyuan's unfinished words will not cause Zheng Kezang's unhappiness, after all, the world is suffocating, Zheng Kezang should do well, and it is Zheng Kezang's responsibility to do badly, and there is no need to compete with his subordinates, so Zheng Kezhang just asked: "How many fishermen and how many fishing boats are there on Poyang Lake now?"
