Section 498 Empress Oliviale
There is also a ship in the Nanjing Shipyard, which was called the Gemini Sister Ship at the time of shipbuilding. This ship was not as large as the other, only thirty zhang long, and the width was smaller, and it was more like the later British wooden sailing battleships provided by the white crane.
The ship was not as practical as the more technical Sagara Ryuwang, but it was more beautiful, so beautiful that only fifty-eight guns were mounted on the ship for the sake of beauty, and the sails were thinner, in order to match the relatively narrow hull.
The Sagara Dragon King departed the port late at night, for fear of being seen.
And this one is leaving the port tomorrow, under the gaze of 100,000 people, hanging red ribbons out of the port, one side in Chinese with the Empress Oliviale, and the other side in Byzantine script.
The 2,000 new capital warships of the Ming Dynasty called 400 in Nanjing, two in Fujian and Guangdong, 800 warships, and 1,000 supply ships, which were filled with Ming specialties, silk, porcelain, and spices from the South Seas. In just two days, Xu Chengzong, the Duke of Wei, actually deployed these ships in place.
Moreover, tens of thousands of merchants who volunteered to travel with the ship signed up, and 500 of them were selected to accompany the ship.
Emperor Daming personally wrote a letter to the world.
The Ming officially declared war on the Ottoman Empire, if nothing else, you occupied the Byzantine capital, the Byzantine empress was the sister of the Ming Emperor, and her husband was the brother-in-law of the Ming Emperor. Your Ottoman Empire is beating me in the face of the Ming Dynasty, and I will send troops to get this face back.
did not send a telegram to the white crane, this was ordered by the Ming Emperor. But it was an official decree, an official document from the Ministry of War.
Yu Qian was in the telegraph room, constantly sending telegrams to the capital, and he needed to explain the real reason for this matter to the cabinet. He came to Nanjing to suppress the white crane, and the Ming Emperor came to Nanjing for the entire Ming Exhibition, but there was such an evil thing. There must always be a complete explanation.
The first reason given by Yu Qian is the desire of the people.
The second is the reason that really makes Yu Qian support this matter, that is, to explore the road and see what it is like outside. There is Shiraika Crane here, and although Shiramei Crane is crazy, he will not let the soldiers go to death. So this time it had to be the white crane, and the third reason was more important, and that was to let the white crane move the Byzantine library back.
The Byzantine technique was very high, which was different from the mastery of the Great Ming.
It's not that the Ming Dynasty is weaker than Byzantium, but the Ming Dynasty and Byzantium are different in the direction of research, which has a huge complementarity, and it is too important for the Ming Dynasty to have these technologies.
At the end, Yu Qian said in private: Let the white crane roll away, and Daming can rest assured that he will live for two years.
Daming capital, a group of dignitaries sat together.
Chen Xun was flipping through Daming's account book: "A thousand ships of goods are not a thing. These things have white cranes, and they can only be turned into gold and pulled back, so the old man is not worried. The surrounding sea can be called the enemy, but the Japanese country has been disabled, and Deng Hailong is guarding the South Seas, and there are not many problems with less than 800 warships. ”
"Yes, it's a waste to have 800 warships train all day without a single battle."
"I'm Ming. And 800 warships! Wang Wen didn't think that it would happen if there were 800 warships missing, and he was still stepping up the production. There will be no two years to wait, and there will be 800 3,000 warships to replenish it, and the strategy on the South Sea side is not something that can be completed in a few days.
Hu Hu said coldly: "Yu Qian said that the white crane is far away, it is estimated that he is afraid that the white crane will promote the battle of Nan'an." The old man thought that even if Annan fought, it would be better in a few years, but these two years were not the time! ”
"That's right. Let the white crane roll far away, vigorously develop the people's livelihood in the past two years, don't fight everywhere. Zhang Feng relied on the white crane to ascend to the throne, but he also thought that the white crane was too evil, and the evil made people headaches. He is the new head of the household department. Using the money from the war to build roads is definitely the best choice.
The twelve scholars of the Wenhua Palace who stayed in Beijing jointly sent a telegram to Yu Qian.
Yu Qian was very surprised after receiving the telegram, because the twelve people were very supportive of this impulsive decision, and stated that if Bai Minghe thought that the battleships he brought were not enough, he could bring another two hundred, and Da Ming's current three or four hundred warships would be enough to protect the country.
What's more, the new ships are still under construction, and a hundred warships will be launched soon, so the coastal defense of the Ming Dynasty does not have to worry.
Why are they so good, and are the white cranes really popular?
Just when Yu Qian was about to leave the Tianyin Bureau to report to Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty, another telegram came. This letter was issued from the Dongchang Tianyin Bureau, and the final payment was made by Emperor Zhu Qizhen.
There was only one sentence on Zhu Qizhen's telegram: two scholars set off firecrackers outside the palace gate.
Yu Qian didn't quite understand what this meant.
After bringing the two telegrams to Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qiyu smiled: "What the imperial brother means is that these old ministers are very happy, they are finally quiet, it seems that Bai Minghe still has the attention of these important ministers, maybe tonight, there will be a few important ministers who are drunk, it is difficult to say." ”
Yu Qian understood, it was still his own joke, the white crane rolled far away, which made people calm down.
Facts have proved that in the past few years in Daming, Bai Minghe has really made the court restless, and Daming also needs to be quiet for a few days, and it seems that it is not a bad thing to let Bai Minghe go out.
"Telegraph, let Deng Hailong open the way for the white crane!" Zhu Qiyu has no scruples.
Malacca! Hum!
Zhu Qiyu still didn't believe it, Deng Hailong couldn't penetrate this strait, and he couldn't deter the small sultanate that was a little mess.
Because of the gag order, the white crane really doesn't know what happened?
The Da Nang Dong Chang Tianyin Bureau received a telegram, but it clearly had an order from the Ming Emperor that no one should privately tell the contents of the holy decree to the white crane before the holy decree arrived.
The Tianyin Bureau is in charge of the East Factory, and the governor of the East Factory is a white-named crane, but the people of the East Factory must obey the orders of the Ming Emperor. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Bai Minghe to know this qiē when the holy decree comes to him, the reason is unknown, but the Ming Emperor does not let him say it, so he must not say it.
Just because you can't say that you can't do something doesn't mean you can't do something.
Wang Cheng had already led people to prepare for the White Crane to go away, and even secretly sent a telegram to Hua Mei, asking Hua Mei to prepare for the long journey, because Hua Mei's Shagara Dragon King was the most powerful warship in the Ming Dynasty.
Hua Mei's eyes lit up, the voyage of a thousand warships, this is the real naval battle.
Just when Bai Minghe was sitting in the gorgeous main hall of Da Nang and preparing to deal with the little contradiction between Da Nang and Annam, the top three naval commanders of the Ming Dynasty in the Quanzhou Military Port in Fujian Province were on the same boat.
The Nanjing Navy Master of the Ming Dynasty was also the chief admiral of the Ming Water Division, Xu Chengzong, the Duke of Wei. Admiral of the Ming Fujian Navy, Blue Ocean. The Guangdong Naval Division of the Ming Dynasty is also the Admiral of the South China Sea Naval Division, Deng Hailong.
"This time, Banzai's opinion is to let Blue Ocean follow." Xu Chengzong said: "You can't move the sea dragon, there is no white-named crane in Nanyang, if you are not there, no one can control the field." If the prince wants to go, can he do it? Nanjing Shipyard, Naval Division East China Sea Defense, Lee's Iron Ore Mining Area in Goryeo, and the Four Ports of Washima. The white-named crane is not at home, and these must be guarded. ”
Deng Hailong didn't react on his face, and said indifferently: "Doesn't Taishi Yu follow?" He is not afraid that the white crane will do something that will not end? ”
"This thing is already the result of not ending, and who doesn't know that the white crane is a fox at home, and a tiger when he goes out. Outside, Bai Minghe is definitely the first ruthless person in the Ming Dynasty, only he bites, and it is difficult for others to stick to a single hair of him, so his own public believes him. Not to mention ......"
Xu Chengzong hesitated for a moment and said: "What's more, there is a big matter here in Nanjing, the White Crane's Fire Dragon Devouring Beast Plan, and no one can control the field without Yu Qian." Think about it, one and a half days from Nanjing to Beijing. At present, the first step of the plan is almost completed, and I only heard that it is an hour of one hundred and fifty miles, and the carrying capacity of one hundred thousand stones. ”
"I've heard that it's a pure steel road." The railways of the Ming Dynasty are no longer a secret.
The shortest of the white cranes, only a few dozen miles long, can be tested in half a month at most, and this road has been basically repaired, only the final finishing is needed.
Lan Hai's face was heavy, he was not wrong with admiralty, but he also had pressure on such a large fleet.
"Old Blue, long live the secret decree!" Xu Chengzong gave Lan Hai a scroll: "Long live said, only the white crane said to kill, you can kill." The white crane said to rob, and you let go of it. There are only two points, if you are born, you will stop the white crane with this secret decree. The first point is that it is not time for Banzai to say not to turn his face with the pope of Europe. The second point is that the white crane can start a war against any country, but the upper limit is three, and when it reaches the fourth, let him stop. ”
"Yes!" Blue Ocean places the scroll on the body.
There is no need to explain, it is impossible to send troops to fight a war to make the whole world full of enemies, and it is not a lot to fight three.
"So, what if the enemy is a coalition force?" Deng Hailong asked for Lan Hai.
"Long live also mentioned that the coalition is counted as a country, even if it is a hundred small countries, it is also counted as a country. But first the other party took the initiative to make a move, not the white crane playing a trap, so this is the secret purpose, not let the white crane know. ”
Lan Hai and Deng Hailong nodded at the same time.
This secret will be known to Bai Minghe, I'm afraid that this guy can play some tricks and seduce the other party to join forces to fight.
Blue Ocean stood up, and he was ready to come out.
Deng Hailong said at this time: "Bring back as many brothers as possible, and be cautious in everything!" ”
"The white crane cherishes the soldiers more than me, and as far as I know about the white crane, no one can guess what will happen when I go out this time, the only thing I know is, alas, ......"
Lan Hai let out a long sigh, and then shook his head again: "You all think that you will fight, but I believe that I am a transport captain in charge of the fleet, and the white crane will not fight." ”
"Don't believe it!" Deng Hailong and Xu Chengzong said at the same time.
Lan Hai only said: "Think about the Wa Kingdom, I thought that Bai Minghe was going to blow up the Wa Kingdom, but what happened!" (To be continued!)
