The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 342 The Great Qing Dynasty of Shipbuilding and Cannon Building (please recommend tickets)

"The two sides fought for a while, and the troops of Sauron and Oroqen suffered a little loss!"

"Sauron, the tribes of Oroqen have also discovered many ruins of tribes that were slaughtered by the Raksha people!"

"And they found a Rakshasa castle in the upper reaches of the Heilongjiang River!"

"The Raksha people are buying furs over there, reclaiming land, and even moving the boundary markers to my Qing side."

After Sony finished speaking, even Sony himself was not very interested in this topic.

Although the outside of the Guan was the ancestral land for the Manchus, but the Manchus really cared about it, and there were only Liaodong, Liaoxi, Liaonan and other areas to the south.

The land further north was regarded as a place of bitter cold for Man Qing!

Apart from being able to capture Jurchen there and replenish the Manchu population, there is no other value.

Especially now that it is still in the Little Ice Age, the land outside the customs north of Liaodong is not suitable for human survival at all.

Only the hard-working old man can withstand the environment!
Therefore, even if these high-level Manchu Qing officials heard that the Raksha people had invaded the territory of the Qing Dynasty, they did not take it seriously.

In fact, the reason why the Raksha people can gain a foothold in the north of Heilongjiang is not because of their strength in the Far East at this time.

It's because the young and strong men from the tribes outside the pass, such as Sauron, Oroqen, etc., were captured by the Manchu Qing and used to supplement the Manchu population.

To put it bluntly, there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings!

There are basically no males in the ministries outside the pass, and the Raksha people can become arrogant.

Otherwise, depending on the brave warriors from the various ministries outside the pass, the Rakshasa People's Formation may not be able to take advantage.

In this regard, Bumbutai just ordered casually.

"Send someone to Rakshasa to hold them accountable, and tell them to withdraw from our Qing border, or you will bear the consequences!"

Sony chirped.

Bumbutai emphasized the task of catching the Jurchen as soon as possible and supplementing Zhenghuangqi.

Obai stood up and reported.

"Empress Dowager, my Qing Dynasty's battle in the south has been going well this year!"

"King Pingnan took back Macau, the Leizhou Peninsula, and the rebels in Nan'ao!"

"Prince Jingnan took Xiamen!"

"I, the Qing Dynasty, once again completely drove the Ming thief out of the sea!"

"Also, Shi Lang and Duolong are also preparing to attack Zhoushan. I believe this battle will be successful!"

Bumbutai nodded and said.

"If this battle is won, the emperor and Ai's family will reward you generously!"

"Even if you give Shi Lang the title of Marquis!"

The Manchu Qing lost a game in Shan State and lost two thousand Zhenghuang Banner Manchurian soldiers, which can be described as a great loss of face.

For the sake of the court's face, the Qing Dynasty had to make up for it elsewhere!

For example, destroying the Ming army in Zhoushan and completely pacifying Jiangnan.

As for the candidate to lead the army, Bumbutai chose Shi Lang without the slightest hesitation.

Because the Manchus are not good at water warfare, they can't even adapt to the sea environment.

The navy of the Qing Dynasty could only use Han people, such as Shi Lang, who was a surrendered general.

And a Manchurian general like Duolong, at most, played the role of supervising the war, and incidentally made some credit for the war.

Shi Lang still has to come to command the battle!
Aobai continued to speak.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, there is one more thing that the slave needs to report!"

Bumbutai took a sip of ginseng tea, and a warm current flowed into her stomach, which eased the expression on her face, and asked.

"What's the matter?"

Ao Bai opened his mouth and said.

"It's about the Longjiang Shipyard!"

"My shipbuilder in the Qing Dynasty has all the ship materials in place, but the shipbuilder promised by the Dutch has not heard from it for a long time."

"In the current Longjiang Shipyard, only our shipbuilders from the Qing Dynasty and the shipbuilders from the English Kingdom are busy!"

Bumbutai frowned, and then asked.

"Where's that Dutchman named Van der Laan?"

"Didn't he give me a clear explanation?"

Aobai shook his head and said.

"Vander Laan said that he can't contact the Batavia headquarters either!"

"The messengers sent several times before and after were all like mud cows entering the sea, and there was no news at all."

Bumbutai sneered, and said with an unattractive expression on his old face.

"These Xiyi people really have no king, no father, no faith and no righteousness!"

"It's just that if the Dutch break the contract, won't the reconstruction of our navy in the Qing Dynasty be delayed?"

Aobai thought in his heart, that's right, but because he was afraid of being held accountable by Bumbutai, he said it instead.

"Not at all!"

"The English can also build large ships of Xiyi. We have countless skilled craftsmen in the Qing Dynasty. As long as someone teaches them, they can start building them by themselves after studying for a period of time."

Bumbutai nodded, quite satisfied, but she remembered again.

Naval battles are not enough to have only ships, but also cannons!

Only with ships and cannons can a powerful navy be built!
However, since the Bujialao Artillery Factory in Macau was taken over by Daming, the Qing court had no choice but to make artillery itself if it wanted artillery.

"What's going on at Jingshan Cannon Factory?"

"Tang Ruowang, Nan Huairen and other foreign monks are transferred to shipbuilding, will it affect Jingshan Cannon Factory?"

The boatman promised by the Dutch was not available, and the Qing court could only find its own way, except to recruit boatmakers from all over the country and the assistance of the British.

The Qing court set its sights on those missionaries who came to China!

Since China in this era is still a kingdom of heaven, the golden signs of thousands of years have a strong deterrent effect.

Therefore, the missionaries of this era all have some real skills.

Shipbuilding, cannon building, astronomy, mathematics... basically everything!
They want to preach, and these things are the stepping stones.

It's not like after one duck and two ducks passed, the Qing court's national dignity was lost, and missionaries no longer had any scruples in preaching.

From a true scholar to a synonym for garbage and scum.

Anyway, as long as they are in the name of preaching, even if they do some evil things in China, their respective countries will take care of them.

The Qing court did not dare to really offend these foreigners!

Otherwise, where did so many teaching plans in the late Qing Dynasty come from?

And before the end of the Qing Dynasty, no matter in the Ming and Qing dynasties, why didn't there have been any teaching cases at all? !
Ye Bilong opened his mouth and replied.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, the Jingshan Cannon Factory is doing its best to manufacture naval cannons for the big ships of Xiyi."

"The shape of the cannon on the big Xiyi ship is the same as that of the red cannon, so it's not difficult to build it!"

The level of firearms of the Qing court in this era is actually not as bad as that of the West.

All kinds of artillery of the Qing court have also experienced the test of war!
Especially in the application of artillery, the Qing court was even stronger than the West.

You must know that there was no case of concentrated use of artillery on the battlefield in Europe until the Napoleonic Wars.

However, as early as the later Jin period, the Qing court used artillery in a concentrated manner during the battle with the Ming army in Liaodong.

He even figured out the tactics of cooperating with various infantry and cavalry.

A brief summary is that the artillery bombards the infantry and rushes, the infantry rushes after the artillery bombards, and after the enemy collapses, the cavalry ends!

The tactics are very simple, but the most basic infantry and cavalry coordination tactics are like this, and there are no bells and whistles as imagined!
Tactics don't have to be too difficult, too fancy is not easy to use, simple and rough is actually the best.

In the same way, the tactics of queuing up and shooting and bayonet charge used by the British lobster soldiers to run rampant around the world are equally simple.

Although the Qing army is quite hip in terms of navy.

But in terms of land warfare, the Eight Banners Green Battalion military group of the Qing army in this era can definitely be regarded as the ceiling of force on the Blue Star at the same time!
