Please, let me be a fool

Chapter 164 Navy New Warship, Overseas Island Country! 【Ask monthly ticket】

A navy without warships.

How can it be called a navy?
"Great, great."

At this time, a commander stood up, his expression was full of joy, and he said: "If we can build a good warship, then my navy will be able to really gallop in this sea in the future, and I can inspect all the surrounding ships. islands!"

The other naval generals were also very excited, knowing the significance of warships to the navy.

At the beginning, the reason why they faced the pirates was that they did not choose to take advantage of the victory and pursue them.

It's not because they know that the warships under the navy's hands are not strong.

It may not even be comparable to the warships of the pirates.

If chased out.

I am afraid that the last loss will be their sailors.

Now, although after the last war, most of the pirates' forces have been wiped out, there are still other forces.

No one can guarantee that these pirates will not set their sights on the coastal provinces and choose to attack.

Therefore, whether the navy can have good warships has become a top priority.

It is also what all the navy generals are looking forward to.

Zhao Jiguang looked at the people in front of him with a smile on his face, and then said: "Yes, this is exactly what this general thinks. Another point is that this time, His Majesty not only allowed the navy to build a war ship, and intends to allocate funds from the imperial court to support my navy.”

"That is to say, under the condition that our navy's military salary remains unchanged, there will be more money to build warships."

As soon as these words came out, the lieutenants were once again shocked.

Because they didn't think about it at all.

The imperial court actually wanted to pay alone to help the navy build warships.

It should be noted that this is not a small expense, and the generals of the Navy know it very well.

This matter will definitely be opposed by the ministers, but obviously, His Majesty doesn't care about it at all.

At this moment, everyone was a little moved.

all the time.

Navy divisions are not welcomed by the court.

At the beginning, the first emperor also reduced the salaries of the navy divisions one after another.

As soldiers of the Great Wei, they naturally dare not have any opinions on this kind of matter, but they still can't help but think that this is because the navy is not strong enough, and they can't do what the northern garrison can do to truly defend the Great Wei. territory.

But now, His Majesty began to attach importance to the navy, and first sent people like Zhao Jiguang.

Then the imperial court was asked to pay to build warships for the navy.

Like the unwelcome child in the family.

Suddenly got the love of parents.

And how not to move the lieutenants of the navy present?
As for Zhao Jiguang, he naturally understood what they were thinking.

In fact, even he was shocked when he got the news. After all, he is now the commander-in-chief of the Navy, and this prosperity is all prosperity, and every loss is loss.

If the navy gets attention, doesn't that mean you get valued?

So in his heart, for His Majesty today.

Beyond gratitude.

Just respect.

Especially since he also knew that his sister was in the palace and was deeply loved by His Majesty.

Thinking of His Majesty today, it is still very good for the Zhao family.

There is no suppression that was rumored when he first took office.

"General!"

At this time, a commander in the camp came out and said, "General, when will our warships start to be built? Also, when will the people from the Ministry of Industry come to Haizhou to build a warship? Trouble, need to hurry up."

The navy is building a new warship, and the commanders at the moment are a little impatient and want to start as soon as possible.

More importantly, the navy needs warships, not just one.

At least hundreds of new warships must be built, right?

Everyone is looking forward to it.

I can see that day sooner.

After Zhao Jiguang heard what they said, he smiled immediately and said: "Everyone, His Majesty has allowed my navy to be fully responsible for building a new warship this time, so the people from the Ministry of Industry will make up for it. All aspects are carried out by our sailors."

The Navy builds warships alone?
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked, and some couldn't believe it.

Because this is beyond their ability, the navy is all soldiers, and it is okay to fight a big battle.

It is absolutely impossible to design warship blueprints.

Even in the navy, there are many talents in this field, but they are limited to repairing and repairing warships, as for the full responsibility for building warships
"This..." a commander couldn't help but raised his brows, and immediately said: "I'm afraid this is not going to work. We navy divisions don't have the ability."

Whether it is the warships of the navy, or the ironware, bows and arrows used by garrisons in other places.

Basically, it is undertaken by the Ministry of Industry and then built.

Now, go it alone.

That is absolutely impossible.

But at this time, Zhao Jiguang smiled slightly, then took out a pamphlet from his arms, looked at the crowd and said, "Don't worry, everyone, this general has some experience in building warships. The drawings drawn include various warships."

"At the same time, this general also designed many warship models, you can take a look at them."

After speaking, he clapped his palms directly.

Soon.

Several personal guards lifted out several boxes and opened them.

In the box, it was the warship model that Zhao Jiguang had built over the years without telling his father and everyone else.

It should be noted that this was not made randomly, it was made by him after consulting many ancient books and learning from real warships.

According to Zhao Jiguang's idea, if you want to build a usable warship, you only need to scale up these models according to the same ratio, and then you can use it.

Below, the leaders were stunned when they saw these warship models, and then began to observe carefully.

Although they don't know much about building warships.

But it's obvious at first glance.

These molds are not only exquisite, but each part is very fine, from the bow to the stern, from the mast to the anchor, almost everything is there.

All of a sudden, everyone felt that maybe building a warship according to these models might really succeed?
However, this kind of thing can't just rely on feeling, it needs to be tested by professional people.

Therefore, the generals did not hesitate to summon the shipwright directly.

A shipwright in the navy.

Although they don't know how to build warships, those warships of the navy are repaired by these people on weekdays. If they think that there is no problem with the mold, then it must be possible.

Soon, after inspection by dozens of shipbuilders, it was unanimously determined.

These warship models are not only extremely delicate, but also stronger than those made by the Ministry of Industry.

If it can be built, it will definitely be much better than the current warships, and it will be excellent in all aspects.

Hearing such an evaluation, all the commanders present were shocked, a little unbelievable.

Because from the previous words, they know.

These warship models were designed and built by Zhao Jiguang.

Everyone was extremely puzzled, because everyone knew very well that this commander-in-chief of Haizhou was the son of Marquis Shenwu, and Marquis Shenwu had always been enemies of grassland tribes for generations. Are people more powerful?

They don't understand this very much, but there is no doubt that the warships built according to these models must be of great use.

As for Zhao Jiguang, he naturally knew what these people were thinking, but he didn't explain anything.

He yearned for the sea since he was a child, and now he has become the commander-in-chief of the navy, which is a dream come true.

Of course, he expected more in his heart.

How to build a real warship, and then stand on the warship built by yourself and gallop on the sea.

Now that the two ideas are finally coming true, Zhao Jiguang is naturally very happy.

In the following time, he began to communicate with the lieutenants of the Navy.

Discuss hints about building warships.

Because it is fully controlled by the Navy, and there is no restriction from the Ministry of Industry.

There is also imperial appropriation, so everyone is looking forward to it and wants to do it as soon as possible.

But this kind of thing can't be rushed, it takes time, but everyone feels that they can afford it.

As long as there are better warships and continuous training in the future, they know very well that in the near future, the future Wei Navy will definitely be famous all over the world!

Almost everyone is looking forward to this day.

And after confirming some details of building the warship.

Seeing that there was nothing serious, the leaders were ready to leave immediately.

Naturally, Zhao Jiguang would not leave everyone behind. After asking his personal guards to send these people away, he walked to the side of the warship models and began to take a large number of them.

Over the years, except for commanding his subordinates to fight at Zhenbei Pass, he has devoted himself to making molds at other times.

Now that he finally has the opportunity to make the model a real warship, one can imagine how excited he is.

"General."

But not long after, a personal guard came out and said respectfully: "General, Eunuch Lin from the East Factory has arrived and said he has something important to inform."

People from Dongchang?

Hearing this, Zhao Jiguang was taken aback for a moment, and without hesitation, he asked his personal guards to invite Mr. Lin in.

In recent days, the navy has been in close contact with the people in Haizhou East Factory.

Because they have to deal with the remnants of the former royal family and pirates, they decided to share information.

Therefore, in the navy, some high-level officials, as well as their personal guards, all think that Eunuch Lin, the person in charge of the East Factory in Haizhou, is dead.

And since the last time, the two sides joined forces to deal with the remnants of the former royal family and the Baiyimen, apart from passing some basic news, Dongchang was doing the aftermath.

The Baiyi sect sent 3000 people into Haizhou, in order to help the third prince of Yuan Dynasty, disturb and occupy Haizhou.

But in the end, this plan failed, and the three thousand white-clothed disciples were also killed and arrested.

However, Dongchang did not pass on the news with great fanfare.

As for the reason, it is also very simple.

The 3000 people who sneaked into Haizhou were all done in secret, and not many people knew about it.

However, Dongchang was able to dig out all these people accurately, which would definitely arouse the precautions and attention of the Baiyimen, and then they began to hide completely.

At that time, it may be very difficult to find those people.

But now, as long as the news is not disclosed.

That East Factory.

You can pass some news and code words obtained from Yuhuatian.

Pretending to be a white-clothed doorman in Haizhou for this reason, he continued to communicate with high-level officials.In this regard, the senior officials of the Baiyimen may find it strange, because those members of the Baiyimen who were supposed to take action, but did not take action. To help the third prince of Yuan, they will definitely be vigilant.

However, these are all explainable, and Dongchang has already planned for this.

Of course, this kind of thing will be discovered sooner or later.

But as long as it is concealed for even one more hour.

Also good.

It will allow Dongchang to continue to grasp more news about Baiyimen.

Coupled with the fact that Yuhuatian, the current chief rudder, is working on two prongs, it will be easier to wipe out in the future.

As for why Zhao Jiguang knew, it was because these things required his help as the commander-in-chief of Haizhou.

For example, the navy got information about the White Clothes Sect from some pirates, and then hunted them down wantonly to confuse those high-level officials of the White Clothes Sect.

In this regard, Zhao Jiguang is of course willing to help.

However, the arrival from Dongchang today was unexpected, and I don't know what happened.

Not long after, Xiao Linzi, the head of the Dongchang stall, walked in from the outside, then bowed slightly and said, "I've seen General Zhao."

"Haha, Eunuch Lin, you don't need to be polite." Zhao Jiguang smiled, without talking nonsense, and asked, "I don't know if Eunuch Lin is here, so what's the matter?"

Last time the other party brought Yuhuatian and the specific location where the remnants of the former royal family attacked, so he knew very well that this Eunuch Lin from the East Factory came again, and there must be important things to do, so he couldn't be careless.

Sure enough, after hearing the words, Xiao Linzi immediately said: "Since the last time, Eunuch Yu has left Haizhou and returned to Beiyang, and just today, Eunuch Yu has sent an important news, I hope our family will personally inform you General Zhao."

"This news is about the remnants of the former royal family. You also know that the last battle was personally directed by Prince Yuan San."

"It's just that we were prepared in advance so that he didn't succeed. However, he was not captured in that battle."

"And the news passed by Mr. Yu said that the third prince of the Yuan Dynasty went straight to Liuyun Island after fleeing Haizhou. We have dispatched sailors to head towards Liuyun Island."

"Thinking about it now, the third prince of the Yuan Dynasty and those sailors of the big Japanese should already be on the same island."

Having said that, Xiao Linzi didn't continue to speak.

And Zhao Jiguang next to him couldn't help frowning after hearing these words.

Because he smelled different flavors from the two news.

Overseas island country big Japanese.

He had a very good relationship with the Great Yuan of the former dynasty, and they called each other brothers.

Afterwards, Dayuan was destroyed by Emperor Taizu Gao, so Dawo began to be hostile to Dawei. In the decades when Dawei first established the country, Dawa not only sent sailors to invade the border once, but they were all stopped in the end.

But even so, these people still didn't let them give up, sending sailors to invade the coastal areas at every turn.

One of the reasons why Wei started to form a navy was also to deal with the big Japanese.

Now, the sailors of Dawa are gathered on the same island as the third prince of the Yuan Dynasty.

Obviously the purpose is not simple!
