"Honorable Emperor of China, King of Kings of the Western Regions, Heavenly Khan of the Turks, and Eternal Big Brother of the Arab Caliph - Your Majesty Zhu Fugui, Your Breakfast - Roast Camel is ready!"

When Zhu Fugui woke up from his dream, his most humble servant, Ali Pasha, was prostrate at the door.

Ali Pasha is Abdul's confidant, who luckily did not die in the palace change, and now bets all his hopes on His Majesty Zhu Fugui.

In fact, at first, Ali Pasha did not expect that His Majesty the Sultan's fox friend who had casually drunk grape juice would really cross thousands of mountains and rivers to save him for the sake of his brother's uprising without a ticket.

But at this moment, he knew that His Majesty the Sultan's eldest brother was really good big brother.

Master Ming Lijian, benevolence and righteousness!

Today, Zhu Fugui's location is a port in Yemen.

Since hearing that Istanbul had fallen and that the Ming envoy and his old friend Abdul were in prison, Zhu Fugui immediately made a decision that he must rescue the Ming citizens and Abdul at all costs.

This is not only related to the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, but also related to whether the Ming Dynasty can dominate the incomparably chaotic Middle East world in the center of the world island in the future, and whether the voice can be loud.

Although people often ridicule Saigon's Iron Fist.

But in an objective sense, the lighthouse state of the Iron Fist era of Saigon was much more generous than the Kabul plane era.

In fact, when Saigon fell, the Lighthouse State took with it more than 130,000 Vietnamese Belt and Road Party members and their relatives.

In the eyes of the people at that time, although there was Saigon Iron Fist, although there were 50,000 wild fathers, stranded illegitimate children and their mothers, although there were more dog minions who waged their tails and begged for mercy who did not get on the helicopter, but that was also 130,000 places!

His own identity, this status, no matter how he drops, can be his turn.

As a result, this time, although flawed, the overall successful evacuation operation reassured the leaders who were trembling under the surging tide of communist movements in Southeast Asia at that time, and re-hugged the thighs of Midi, so that their influence will still haunt the region for decades to come.

Zhu Fugui believes that this experience of the lighthouse country is worth learning from the Ming Dynasty, and it should be done better.

After all, since ancient times, the Chinese Empire has a tradition of passing on the legacy to the younger brother.

This is also one of the theoretical bases for why tributary is an advanced form of alliance.

The Ming Empire naturally wanted to maintain this fine Chinese tradition.

Rescuing Brother Abdul is not only to rescue a meaty friend of His Majesty Zhu Fugui, but also to give people who eat Daming dog food a sense of security and peace of mind for the dogs.

Of course, from a technical point of view, this rescue operation is more like the "Oak Tree" rescue of Mussolini than like a lighthouse state.

The new Air Force will inevitably shine.

Sailing in the clouds is undoubtedly a more advanced form of raid than dryland boating.

And Zhu Fugui also gave this operation a nice name - "Pineapple Pizza" operation.

Objectively speaking, there are two reasons why Zhu Fugui dared to take such a risky action.

First, after the former Indian governor, Baron Northbrook, was eaten by the cannibals, the Anglo-Indo-Calcutta authorities completely reduced their strategic forces and waited for a new governor appointed by London.

The new Indian governor appointed by London had obviously experienced a rough experience, and it was difficult for him to take into account the struggle for sea supremacy in the Indian Ocean for a while.

In this way, although the Ming did not have enough ships in the South China Sea and the Indian Ocean, it also formed a situation with the British that "the Indian Ocean is large enough to accommodate the Ming and British warships to pass through each other without exchanging fire or even meeting".

In other words, the long-distance attack of the Ming fleet objectively has the possibility of concealing its whereabouts for a certain period of time.

At the same time, the safety of the Son of Heaven's personal expedition can also be guaranteed.

Second, it is the new progress and progress of the Ming military industry.

Specifically, the new aircraft carrier "Zhu Chenggong", which was originally intended to be delivered to Morishita for a sunset invasion, was urgently transferred to the Nanyang Theater for use.

"Zhu Chenggong" is not a new number.

It is the name of the first real sea ship in the Ming Dynasty.

The "Zhu Chenggong" generation was the same American armed merchant ship that carried Hiroto Iui, Morishita, McCann and others to Xinjin that year.

After being captured by the Ming Dynasty, it was changed to the "Zhu Chenggong" dual-purpose battleship.

It played an important role in the early colonization of the Bear Island-Aleutian region in the early Ming Dynasty, as well as in the whaling and walrus trade.

In addition, "Zhu Chenggong" also severely damaged three Russian whaling ships in the First Ming and Russian War, that is, the Battle of the Aleutians, and wrote a rich and colorful stroke in the glorious military history of the Ming Navy.

It's a pity that with the torrent of the times, it rolls forward.

As a warship, the "Zhu Chenggong" gradually became difficult to adapt to the needs of the Ming Empire's external expansion and maintenance of the maritime frontier.

Later, the "Zhu Chenggong" once became a naval training ship, serving in the New Caofeidian Naval Division Secondary School.

With a new round of equipment changes in the Ming Navy.

The "Dingyuan" and "Zhenyuan", which were both meritorious ships, were all used as the names of the new warships.

The "Zhu Chenggong" generation was also put into the Sailor Museum, and the number was inherited by the latest aircraft carrier of the Ming Dynasty.

"Zhu Chenggong" is the second aircraft carrier of the Ming Dynasty, and the previous one is the "Yunnan" that has repeatedly made military exploits in the Atlantic.

In fact, the "Yunnan" was not a battleship designed by the Ming Military Department, but the result of Admiral Morishita going alone.

Specifically, Morishita didn't know that the [GHS] R&D department of the Ministry of War was designing and building an aircraft carrier, but as a front-line admiral of the Navy, he used a merchant ship to transform an aircraft carrier into actual combat without a teacher, and achieved good results.

When he excitedly reported to the Marshal's Mansion and the Ministry of War to show his invention, Zhu Fugui could only smile bitterly and give up the title of "Father of Aircraft Carriers".

After all, as long as the airplane is invented, the appearance of such a thing as an aircraft carrier will not be far away.

Aircraft carriers in history were invented along with airplanes.

As early as 1923, China's native warlord Zhang Zuolin used German merchant ships and French aircraft to rebuild an aircraft carrier.

And Morishita's "Yunnan" and Zhang Dashuai's aircraft carrier are obviously at the same level, and the number of carrier-based aircraft is eight.

However, the "Zhu Chenggong", which was personally approved by His Majesty Zhu Fugui and led by Geng Junhua, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is far from being a combination of merchant ships + aircraft.

It is......

A powerful combination of container ship + airplane + airship!

Because of well-known reasons, the shipping prices and container ship prices in later generations have soared, and COSCO Shipping Holdings' profits have increased by more than 1,000 times in a year, and the corresponding cultural value punishment for Zhu Fugui's direct purchase of sea ships is also increasing.

Therefore, Zhu Fugui just bought a 150-ton small container ship as a research object, and Daming himself produced the aircraft carrier.

As the saying goes, follow the cat and draw the tiger and the anti-dog.

According to the 150-ton small container ship, the aircraft carrier designed and built by the Geng Ministry of Industry is of course relatively stretched.

But no matter how you pull the crotch, this ship has a displacement of 15,000 tons, a main engine propulsion power of 21,900 horsepower, 2-shaft propulsion, a speed of 21 knots, a cruising range of 4,000 nautical miles / 10 knots, and a giant ship with a capacity of 750 people, which is definitely worthy of the name "Zhu Chenggong".

Although the "Zhu Chenggong" is not as domineering as the two ironclad battleships "Shenzhou" and "Yinzhou" in terms of tonnage and armor alone, there is no doubt that the "Zhu Chenggong" will play a powerful role far beyond the cannons of giant ships in carrying out ocean-going punishments and publicizing the prestige of the great tomorrow.
