Chapter 1097

"Sun Qing, how are the preparations for the Fujian Junior Military Equipment Hall going?"

The question of Emperor Chongzhen was immediately prompted by the system to Sun Chuanting.Immediately, Sun Chuanting replied: "Your Majesty, I have made preparations and the class will officially start the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, the eunuchs I sent have already studied in the elementary military training hall of the capital, and some of them were drawn from the Liaodong New Army, but they have no experience in water warfare. Not enough, on Zheng Qing’s side, Qing has also ordered him to sort out the teaching materials of naval warfare, and they should be available to me in these two days. By then, they can be used as elementary military training halls in Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong.”

"I understand!" Sun Chuanting looked at it, and immediately replied, "Hou Tianchen will personally go to preside over it!"

"Well, that's very good." Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied, nodded and said, "We must let the students know that the imperial court attaches great importance to them, and let them be proud to be able to enter the junior military training hall. Both sides are the same, under the same conditions, the junior military equipment hall students must be given priority, and the students with good grades must be given priority."

"I understand!" Sun Chuanting responded without hesitation.Regarding this point, it was already made clear when the imperial decree of the provinces to establish primary military equipment halls was handed down.If the emperor emphasizes it again, he will naturally pay more attention to it.

After Emperor Chongzhen finished explaining this, he said nothing more.On the southeast coast of Ming Dynasty, since the Fujian Navy and the Denglai Navy jointly wiped out the pirates last year and wiped out the Hongyi of the big officials, the coast is basically empty of pirates in this period, and they have all gone to Nanyang.

He believes that this period is the best opportunity to reorganize the navy, so among the junior military halls in various provinces, he attaches the most importance to the junior military halls in Fujian.For the first batch of members of this military academy, he also instructed Sun Chuanting that the trainees were mainly soldiers in the navy.After this reorganization, the Daming Fujian Navy should be freed from the influence of Zheng Zhilong as much as possible.

The navy is the navy of Ming Dynasty, not Zheng Zhilong's navy!

Just as he was thinking about this, he suddenly saw a series of private chats sent by Liu Jinsheng. It was Zheng Zhilong who completed the compilation of the naval warfare textbook on schedule, and Liu Jinsheng took photos and sent them over.

Although Emperor Chongzhen himself had never led an army to fight a naval battle, the development of the Internet in later generations allowed him to understand the knowledge of naval warfare to some extent, and he may not be clear about the details.But for this textbook, it is okay to comment on one or two.

Therefore, after receiving the naval warfare textbook from Liu Jinsheng, he immediately read it seriously.

It has to be said that Zheng Zhilong is really good at naval warfare, and he has explained in detail from the selection of sailors to the pros and cons of warships.Emperor Chongzhen had received the teaching materials written by Li Zhiqi, a navy master of Denglai, a few days ago. He found that Li Zhiqi was better at familiarizing with warships, transforming them and fighting in battle; Sailors, gather the morale of the army and pay more attention to the collection of intelligence.In terms of naval combat methods, the textbooks of the two are similar, nothing more than arson, springboard, shelling, siege and other methods.

After reading it, Emperor Chongzhen drew out a lot of important points, and crossed out some very heavy tricks.And from a large level, he wrote some things he knew, such as the current history of navigation in the world.He believed that adding it to the teaching materials would allow the officers and men of the Daming navy to have a better understanding of the whole world, and their vision should not be limited to the vicinity of Daming.Then he gave Liu Jinsheng and Sun Chuanting the rights to the folders of the two books, and asked them both to read them, and Zheng Zhilong combined the two textbooks into one to become an official textbook.

At the end, he said to Liu Jinsheng: "Tell Zheng Qing that success is very good on the capital's side, and people are very smart. These days, they are inseparable from Li Dingguo, who I brought back from Liaodong. I can tell that both of them will be Ming Dynasty in the future." pillars of the

Zheng Zhilong was by Liu Jinsheng's side, and when he heard his report, he couldn't help being overjoyed. Not only did the emperor give his son the name of success, but just from the name, he knew that the emperor had not treated his son badly, and even praised him so much.That Li Dingguo, Zheng Zhilong also knew something, was a child that the emperor liked very much, and he was nurturing him with all his strength.With his son, he must have learned a lot.

Therefore, he hurriedly laughed and asked Liu Jinsheng to convey his gratitude to the emperor, and said that he did not relax in the slightest regarding the reorganization of the navy.

With Zheng Zhilong's spirit, he naturally knew why the emperor was so kind to his son.But now the emperor personally conquered Liaodong in one fell swoop and pacified the Qing Dynasty.The entire Mongolian grassland bordering the Ming Dynasty has also become part of the territory of the Ming Dynasty.It can be said that the national power of Ming Dynasty is far from what it used to be.He didn't want to rebel and confront Daming, so he had to listen to the emperor's words carefully, and only in this way could he enjoy the glory and wealth of conferring his wife and son.In addition, according to what the emperor said, he still has a chance to be famous in history, and he is also very concerned about it.

As if he knew what he was thinking, Liu Jinsheng conveyed the words of Emperor Chongzhen: "At the Tongzhou shipyard, iron-clad steam warships are already being built. At present, there are still many technical difficulties to be overcome for full-iron armor, but iron-clad wood warships are still under construction. The warship has already been built, and now it is installing a steam engine for testing, and it is estimated that there will be a result by the end of this year or early next year."

Zheng Zhilong couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard this.He still remembers the scene described by the emperor himself during the first meeting.Iron-clad battleships can move forward automatically without manpower, and can even sail against the wind. At that time, I heard it as if I was listening to a scripture. I felt that this was impossible.Unexpectedly, in the past few years, this kind of warship has already begun to appear.That is to say, the prospects that the emperor described to him before should all be true!
Thinking of it this way, he became even more firm in his mind.We need to intensify efforts to reorganize the navy.When a new type of navy is trained, it is estimated that it will be able to sail to Nanyang, and there are farther places, those oceans that Xiyi can reach, the Ming Dynasty navy can also go!

The news of Emperor Chongzhen was actually a deterrent to Zheng Zhilong.If Zheng Zhilong doesn't cooperate and wants to fight against the court, there will be no good end.When the time comes, the Denglai navy will be equipped with new warships, even in the sea where Zheng Zhilong is best at, it is impossible to be the opponent of the imperial court.

It can be said that Emperor Chongzhen, invisibly, gave both kindness and power, which made Zheng Zhilong so obedient and willing to reorganize the Fujian Navy.

On this day, in a small harbor near Taiping Port, there are several lonely buildings in this area.But at this time, there were many soldiers, and on the side of the pier square, a group of soldiers were standing in line.In front of them, stood a group of senior Ming generals.

Although it is already October at this time, the weather in Fujian is still a bit hot.However, neither the general nor the soldiers on the square dared to be lazy or avoid the sun.

It's not that their military discipline has been trained to be the same as that of the new army, but that they are waiting for someone, and they are afraid of that person. The nickname of "Cold-faced Hades" is based on countless facts.Those who don't believe in evil, no matter whether they are officers and soldiers, common people, or officials or gentry, or aristocratic families, have run into the hands of the governor, and in the end all of them have achieved his reputation as the cold-faced king of hell.

And the governor is obviously very favored, he has been doing this all the time, no matter how many impeachments, it will be hard for him!Even the more he was impeached, the more he was rewarded by the emperor.In this way, there are finally fewer people impeaching him.In Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong, they all obediently followed the rules of the cold-faced Hades and the policies of the imperial court.

At this moment in the harbor, there were people who spoke in low voices, but not many soldiers were killed, but there were a few generals who were talking around.

"Brother, this time a group of eunuchs will be sent from the capital. Can they adapt to the humidity in the south?"

"That's right, brother, the imperial court has sent so many eunuchs here, and they want to set up the Armed Forces Hall, and most of them are recruited by our navy. Does the imperial court not trust you, elder brother?"

"Brother, how many uses does this elementary military equipment hall have? It's impossible to sit here and learn. It can be better than us lifting our heads on the boat, right?"

"..."

The surrounded man heard them whispering, and couldn't help shouting angrily in the same low voice: "Shut up, everyone. From now on, in formal occasions, you will be called officials. Remember, you are a member of the Ming Dynasty. understand?"

The person who spoke was naturally Zheng Zhilong, the commander of the navy. At this time, because of his contribution to suppressing bandits, he had been promoted step by step from guerrilla to lieutenant general.After teaching his cronies a lesson, he saw Liu Jinsheng, who had gone out to pay respects, come back, and he ordered in a low voice: "He is trying everything possible to catch us. If he wants to die, don't drag me down, understand?"

All the cronies were silenced by him, so that when Liu Jinsheng came to Zheng Zhilong's side, he felt that the atmosphere seemed a bit wrong, but he didn't care.

It was Zheng Zhilong who asked Liu Jinsheng concerned if he had eaten his stomach badly and how he was doing.

While talking in a low voice, suddenly, a fast horse galloped up, and at the same time, there was a loud message: "Your Excellency, the governor is here!"

Hearing these words, everyone immediately lifted their spirits, held their heads high, and showed their best energy.Under the leadership of Zheng Zhilong, he strode towards the entrance of the square to greet him.

After a while, I saw a group of knights trotting towards us. The leader, at a glance, was the powerful governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong, Sun Chuanting.At this moment, there was sweat on his face, and he was obviously hot.But Sun Chuanting didn't seem to care about this at all, as usual, with a cold face, as if everyone owed him money.

Behind Sun Chuanting, there is a group of people who are quite special. Everyone can see that they are many eunuchs in the north.But in the future, they can't be called eunuchs casually. They will all be the instructors of the Fujian Junior Military Equipment Hall, and a large part of their grades and future official careers will be in the hands of these people.

The status of these people is so high that even Liu Guoneng, Sun Chuanting's confidant general, is ranked behind these people, which can be seen.

Zheng Zhilong led the navy generals under him, and immediately went to see the ceremony.

Sun Chuanting reined in his horse and stood still, then turned over vigorously and got off his horse. He responded with a cold "hmm", and then strode towards the platform in front of the square. And there are changes.

For Sun Chuanting's behavior, Zheng Zhilong and others have long been familiar with it, and followed them according to their official positions, and all went to stand on the stage.

Sun Chuanting stood in front of the platform, with a cold face, scanning the soldiers standing below.After looking at it for a while, he yelled coldly: "Fujian Junior Wubei Hall is valued by the court and the emperor. I will also see your performance in Wubei Hall. Ugly words come first, who wants you?" If you don't want to make progress, don't listen to the instructors, don't study hard, and can't graduate when the time comes, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Cold-faced Hades!" Many soldiers heard their nicknames secretly in their hearts.But on the surface, they all maintained their best spirits and spirits, not daring to make any changes.

Sun Chuanting glanced at them, his cold eyes piercing into everyone's eyes. After looking at them for a while, he said coldly: "As long as you can get the instructor's approval, you can graduate from the Armed Forces Hall, and you can be promoted according to the law, who wants to be promoted?" I didn’t get a promotion, so I came directly to the Governor’s Mansion to find my official. I want to see who dares to stop me from graduating from the Military Equipment Hall.”

As the governor of the three provinces, Sun Chuanting naturally couldn't worry about the promotion of the junior military officers in the navy, and naturally there was a yamen to manage the junior military officers.But he said this in public, which shows that he attaches great importance to it.

In the past, there were tricks in the promotion of officials, such as relationships, such as bribery, etc. Sun Chuanting originally saw one by one and caught one by one, without giving any favors or showing favors. If you are a pawn, you don't have to worry about this, otherwise you can go to the governor's office. With the governor's style of doing things, he will definitely make decisions for them.

Therefore, after hearing this, the soldiers on the square all showed a hint of joy on their faces, and called out the nickname "Cold Face Hades" again in their hearts, but this time, they called them kindly in their hearts.

However, Sun Chuanting didn't seem to see the happy intentions of the soldiers below, he still looked at them with a cold face, and continued to shout in a cold voice: "I remind you that after graduating from the junior military training hall, don't disgrace the students of the junior military training hall. Only after you have made contributions can you go to the High-Level Arms Hall of the capital. That is the place where my senior generals of the Ming Dynasty must go, and it is also the disciple of the emperor! I hope that you can all go to the Hall of Advanced Arms of the Ming Dynasty and become disciples of the emperor. That’s all for now, let’s do it for ourselves!”

This time, it was a bit too much for him.But there is no way, the emperor is very concerned about the preparations for this junior military equipment hall in Fujian, so he has to say more.

The next step is to introduce those eunuchs and instructors, and introduce the situation of the Junior Armed Forces Hall.After the "opening ceremony" was over, teaching materials were distributed and the school was ready to start.

Those who could read could not help exclaiming after flipping through the textbooks when they got them.
