If Daming is a business.

Then there is no doubt that Zhu Yuanzhang is the president of this enterprise.

The yamen of various ministries and departments are the various departments of this enterprise, and the production and research and development departments of this enterprise are the supervisors and Longjiang Shipyard.

Zhu Yuanzhang is the president and the grandfather of these production and R&D departments.

If Da Ming wants to go to the deep blue completely and get out of the sea frontier, he must let the grandfather of the gold lord see that the white silver that his old man took out was not squandered by the people working underneath.

It is even more important for this grandfather to see clearly that the money spent by his old man is all really transformed into real results.

As Zhu Yunxi gave the order, Zhu Yuanzhang also took a good time to look at the black holes and windows below the deck.

The heralds descended from the deck to the artillery bay below, conveying orders from His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson.

Zhu Yunxi beckoned to Tian Mai, who was accompanying him, took a brass telescope and handed it to the old man.

"Grandpa, use this to see clearly."

Zhu Yuanzhang just glanced at it, and then took the telescope.

This thing has now been assembled to the level of a thousand households in the Ming army, and it is no longer a rare object in the Ming army.

"Bursting bombs!"

"Ready for a shot!"

"Cannonball loading!"

"Gunner ignition!"

Rumble......

One after another, sounds emanated from the lower decks of the warship.

With a loud roar, the entire warship shook backwards, and the people on the entire deck saw a bright light and rushed out like thunder.

In the telescope in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand, in the woods on the bank of Jiangxinzhou, which had just been marked in the distance, the cannonball drilled into it heavily, and a flash of fire burst out, followed by a huge roar.

Countless branches and leaves were scattered in the air, and the entire trunk of the tree was torn apart, making a creaking and wailing sound, and collapsed towards the rear.

Patches of dust were flying, and pebbles were flying.

At the near end of the telescope, a cloud of black smoke slowly drifted up from below the horizon.

The warship was shaking slightly, and layers of ripples were constantly pushed into the distance with the warship as the origin.

"The cannon is mighty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the telescope in his hand and snorted.

Zhu Yunxi immediately raised his arms and spoke: "The Ming army is mighty!" ”

Zhang Ergong, the left waiter of the Ministry of Works, subconsciously shouted: "Long live my emperor!" ”

The entire deck was full of people with their heads held high, taking a deep breath of air, and when there was no more air under their chests, a loud roar sounded on the deck.

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Long live our emperor! Banzai! Hooray! ”

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Mighty ......"

Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was surging, and he couldn't help but look back at the imperial grandson beside him: "This cannon is twice as big as in the past, and this bullet is unprecedented!" ”

Just a cannonball can destroy a lot of trees and cause such a big movement, even if Zhu Yuanzhang has been well versed in military affairs for many years, he has never heard of it.

Zhu Yunxi smiled implicitly: "This bomb is called a burst bomb, which is developed together with the new artillery, and its role is to maximize the killing of the enemy when the two armies are facing each other. It's just that the timeliness of the second explosion of ammunition has never been absolutely controllable at present, and only three or four percent of the requirements are echoed, and it needs to be continuously improved in the future. ”

The technical difficulty of changing from an iron lump to an ammunition that can explode twice is a gap of the times. Zhu Yunxi got up, Zhang Ergong led people to test for a long time, and now it is only three or four out of ten bullets that can play a real role as required.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed out loud: "It's enough!" Enough! Three or four percent is enough! It's uncontrollable, and our army will use the number to pull up this number! ”

The old man will also change the quantity and quality?

Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but chuckle: "Order, three salvos of the starside guns, one round of siege shells, one round of bursting shells, and one round of fire shells." ”

The herald, who had been standing on the deck waiting for orders, immediately ran and shouted.

"Order!"

"Artillery three salvos!"

"A round of siege bombs!"

"A burst bomb!"

"A round of firebombs!"

The military order was quickly communicated.

After the light, the entire river surface in front of Jiangxinzhou became an absolute realm dominated by the latest artillery and steam warships of the Ming Dynasty.

It was as if there were thousands of cannons firing in unison, and the sound of cannons was sent into Yingtian City in the distance.

The whole steam warship trembled and swayed, but it always remained within a maximum fixed angle of inclination to ensure that the muzzle and aiming range of the guns were within the correct and controllable range.

And on the entire river surface, countless large and small fish were shocked out of the river, bringing up clusters of shining spots on the river surface.

The fish returned to the water, and the ripples were chaotic.

The black smoke filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke cast a fog on the surface of the river.

The first round of siege bombs was sent to the opposite Jiangxinzhou by a huge impact force, and for a time countless huge impact sounds sounded, mud and stones rolled, and several shore stones that were constantly too big were smashed by the whole body, and the sky was full of gravel sputtering.

However, the turmoil did not stop.

The second round of bursting bombs had already roared across the river and fell into the woods on the bank of Jiangxinzhou, which was already like a landslide.

It was as if the entire tree had been cut through by a large, jagged scythe.

The thigh-thick trunk was shattered, and countless sawdust danced in the sky along with the broken leaves and branches, and the broken parts of the trees were full of tearing sensations.

The whole forest was making a breathless wail.

Zhu Yuanzhang no longer has to use a telescope to watch, in his eyes, what happened to Jiang Xinzhou opposite is constantly magnified and magnified in his eyes.

Unconsciously, Zhu Yuanzhang was already holding his breath.

In his eyes, those towering trees were no longer dead things. Instead, he became the remnants of the thieves who were driven back to the grasslands by him.

The Yuan thieves rode the war horses raised since childhood, and rushed towards the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, trying to take away the Central Plains of the Han family again.

However, the artillery of the Ming Dynasty roared mightily on top of the high posts, spewing out the most dangerous anger in the world. Rows of thieves were hit and shattered by shells, and the sky was covered with red blood rain.

Yellow, white, red.

The horses were torn apart, and the enemy had severed limbs.

The vast green grassland is covered with the remains of Yuan thieves who occupied the Central Plains for more than 100 years.

The lone eagle hovers in the sky, waiting for the world's most dangerous people to leave, so that it can swoop down from the sky and land on the grassland to feed its belly.

"Fire bomb!"

"One-shot equipment!"

"Ammo reloading!"

"Gunner ignition!"

Rumble!

WhewW......

The sound of the military order of the artillery commander under the deck once again reached the deck, and once again ten thousand cannons rang out in unison, and the emperor's shoulders couldn't help but shook.

In a whimpering sound, a blazing fire shot out from behind the gun window of the warship, and in the blink of an eye it had fallen into the crumbling woods on the opposite bank.

The river breeze blows over the river island.

Huge flames rose, and the fire swayed in the wind, constantly spitting anger and whimpering loudly.

Just the work of the tea incense, the entire shore has turned into a sea of fire, and the raging fire seems to burn the surrounding air and dry the river on the shore.

On the deck of the warship, everyone held their breath.

Even Zhang Ergong and the others also widened their eyes, staring at the sea of fire on the shore of Jiangxinzhou.

Even though they had tried it several times, every time they saw such a scene, they would be deeply impressed by the terrifying power of the artillery they had made.

"Sail!"

A heavy sound sounded in the silence that followed the sound of artillery fire.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhang Ergong with a flushed face: "Sail!" Get the ship moving! Then let's try it out! ”

"Minister...... The minister ......" Zhang Ergong had never seen the emperor look like this, and he was hesitant for a while, and hurriedly shouted: "The minister has an order!" Someone came, the order was given, the warship anchored, sailed, and the steam engine ignited! ”

The entire warship, already with the emperor's words, began to get busy.

Countless sailors untied the sails, and groups of sailors pulled the huge sails through the winch with the complicated ropes.

The two huge chimneys erected at the back of the warship began to spit smoke out of the mouth after a few roars. It was only a half-loud effort, and directly behind the stern of the boat, there were rows of white smoke and water vapor, shooting at the rear.

The steam turbine has already begun to work.

From the very bottom of the ship to the deck, there was a tremor, and the sails were lifted and fixed by the sailors.

It's moving!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at a fixed object on the shore, and began to have a sense of movement in his sight, and immediately raised his steps and ran towards the bow of the ship.

"Your Majesty, slow down, watch your step!"

Zhang Ergong hurriedly turned around and reminded loudly.

Zhu Yunxi also spoke again and again: "Grandpa, be careful, the warship has just started, and it will be a little unstable." ”

A group of people followed the emperor and headed towards the bow of the boat.

Zhu Yuanzhang had already rushed to the front of the bow at this time, and his hands were tightly grasping the railing in front of him.

Hearing the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't look back, but just said in a deep voice: "How should the steam warship continue to test, you do it according to the plan." ”

Zhang Ergong saw that His Majesty the Emperor had no longer the meaning of explaining by himself, so he bowed down and quietly retreated.

At this time, Zhu Yunxi stepped forward lightly and came to the old man's side: "According to the plan, the warship will start from here and gradually increase its speed until it reaches the downstream Bagua Continent at full speed, and then start to turn on the river surface, and shell the test fort built along the upstream coast of Bagua Island to test the performance of the warship in the state of movement and mooring. ”

Baguazhou is located about 20 miles downstream of Longjiang Shipbuilding and Waijiang Xinzhou.

This distance was enough for the steam warship to measure its speed at full speed, and the river surface over there was also enough for the warship to turn around and move and fix the shelling.

Zhu Yuanzhang's fingers lightly tapped on the railing in front of him, but he asked: "These cannons are not only to be used on the naval warships, but also to be sent to the border army." With this thing in hand, as long as I don't mess up, I will be invincible. ”

The sea is unfamiliar, and for the Ming people, they don't know as much about the land as they do.

All along, the enemies of the Central Plains have come from the land, especially the enemies that have emerged one after another on the grassland outside the Nine Border Fortress.

The focus of the Ming Dynasty's military strategy today is still to focus on confrontation, defense, and striking at the remnants of the former Yuan outside the nine-sided fortress.

In that year, Xu Da led the army to attack Beiping City, and the Great Yuan, which was established by Temujin, collapsed after countless bloody battles by the sons and daughters of the Han family.

The Great Yuan, as a dynasty that ruled the entire Central Plains, ended its dynastic lifespan.

Yuan Huizong's son only Jin Tu Timur fled to the north of the capital, and retreated to Yingchang the next year. This iron pot emperor still uses the national name of Dayuan, but he has been defined by the Ming Dynasty as the Northern Yuan.

In the third year of Hongwu, Yuan Huizong died, Yuan Zhaozong ascended the throne, and under the continuous military operations of the Ming army, he continued to flee to Mobei and Lin with the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Yuan Zhaozong died in the eleventh year of Hongwu, and the enthroned Yuan Tianyuan Emperor continued to lead people to confront the Ming Dynasty, and repeatedly violated the Ming Dynasty.

Until the twenty-first year of Hongwu, in order to completely sweep away the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in Saiwai and the northeast region, the imperial court ordered Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, to be the general, leading an army of 150,000 to carry out the sixth northern expedition of Emperor Hongwu.

The Ming army crossed the Gobi, advanced to the area of Yuerhai, fought fiercely with the Northern Yuan army, and finally completely defeated the Northern Yuan army, causing countless casualties and capturing more than 80,000 people. Emperor Tianyuan's eldest son, Tianbaonu, fled, and his youngest son, Dibaonu, was captured by the Ming army.

And Tianyuan Emperor's eldest son, Tianbaonu, who continued to flee north, was killed by Ali Buge's descendant Ye Sudieer.

At this point, the Northern Yuan no longer used the emperor's year name and the Great Yuan country name.

However, whether it is the Great Yuan or the Northern Yuan, although it has died out a few years ago, it has left countless people who have experienced the founding of the Ming Dynasty. These remnants of the former Yuan still carry out the system of the former Yuan, still have a strong military force, and still try to go south again for many years.

In the twenty-eight years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has been fighting for 28 years.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, the biggest hope of the country in this life may not be to create a prosperous world with his own hands, or it may not be to smooth his children and grandchildren, but he must sweep away all the remnants of the former Yuan.

Zhu Yunxi said softly: "Grandpa, rest assured, the artillery on the naval division's warship is specially forged for the naval division. As for the heavy artillery used outside the nine-sided fortress, and the light artillery that could be easily pulled by the war horse and easy to carry and carry, they were developed together from the beginning. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised, and said with a sideways look: "Why do you want to be so subdivided?" When will grandpa be able to see with his own eyes the heavy artillery and light artillery you are talking about? ”

"It won't take long to think about it, and it will always be done together this year, and then grandpa will be invited to watch it in person."

Yes!

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, his eyes were a little moved, looking at the vast blue waves of the Yangtze River in front of him, he slapped the railing one after another, as if he was playing music in harmony.

"The Ming Dynasty must really settle down earlier, and let those enemies who dare to covet the Central Plains completely surrender, and if they don't surrender, let them drink the blood under the sword of the Ming army."

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said in a low voice: "There will be that day." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "You have to do things well, and when the day comes, grandpa will go to sea on such a boat to see what kind of place is on the other side of this sea." ”

The old man wants to be the king of the pirates?

Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but be stunned.

However, it had already met the old man's meaningful gaze.
