The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 176: The force is with me

   The next time was very hurried, an enlarged meeting was held, and the captains of each ship participated and listened to the battle deployment.

  Supplies were rushed to the ships, and the personnel were called. The wharf and the ships were busy.

   The towns entered a state of emergency, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival disappeared.

   Serious inspections and meticulous preparations were carried out on the fortresses defending the towns.

Over the years, the Southeast Mansion has indeed collected a lot of money, but did not save any money. It is the Moonlight Clan. The money is mainly spent on the army. Among them, the defense forts of the towns have been established. Artillery... originated from Macau and Luzon. , Dutch, British.

The Dutch had a holiday with the Southeastern Prefecture, but the business between them was very prosperous. There were also many "firm patriots" among the Red Mao Fans. They sold artillery that might strike them to the Southeastern Prefecture. Of course, this There is the pride of the Dutch. They think that the yellow race can't play artillery because they have seen Da Ming's artillery. Because of negligence in training, they become scumbags, are not allowed to shoot artillery, and are not in the eyes of the Dutch.

They thought it was okay to sell artillery to the Southeastern government. The Red Mao Fans of the four countries scrambled to sell artillery and gunpowder to achieve a trade balance. Even in the most tense period, before the two armies went to war, they asked Sherlock to get a ship of artillery back to Taiwan. Where is it? There are steadfast patriots in any race who sell their artillery to the enemy.

   The Dutch have never seen the training of "Moon, Moon, Fire, Water, Wood, Gold" in the Southeast House...

   Hong Maofan sold a lot of artillery!

  The number was so large that two forts were built in each of the five towns in Southeast Prefecture, each with ten guns, that is, one town had ten 24-pounder guns and ten 12-pounder guns.

   also armed the battleships of the Southeast Mansion. After a few years of hard work, he even sold thousands of guns to the Southeast Mansion, which is unimaginable!

  The turrets are ready, the people fired shots, each town has more than three hundred muskets!

   Just wait for the arrival of the enemy, and hit the enemy head-on!

The sailing warships form the first strike group, with Yan Changwu as the main general, Storm as the lieutenant, and the second strike group, which is the existing various bird ships (the bird ships are small fast sea ships of the Fu ship type. The length is 10 meters. , 3.4 meters wide, is a fast-attack ship type), the chasing boat was transformed from a net fishing sea boat. It was a medium-sized sea boat built in southern Fujian and was the main battle ship of the Ming Dynasty navy, with a length of 12-25 meters. , 3.6-6.4 meters wide), double-sailed longboat (also known as double-topped longboat, is a medium-sized warship with solid structure, flexible driving, and fast driving built in Zhangzhou and Xiamen. The length is 20 meters and the width is 5.7 meters. , Built for pine and fir wood. The ship can also be used as an ocean freight ship. The boat people and their families live on the ship, with sleeping cabins, which can be transformed into warships if needed) hundreds of ships.

   These warships that are convenient for shallow sea operations have not been lost. The deputy admiral Li Ying is the main general and Li De is the deputy. They mainly prevent the enemy from attacking the four towns of Tainan. As for the Taipei town, it depends on their luck.

   In Fuzhou, the governor Xiong Wencan received a notification from the Taiwan Guard, saying that the Hongmaofan Sino-Dutch battleship was so large that it would attack Taiwan Guard!

   It is possible that pirates such as Li Kuiqi and Liu Xiang will raid the coasts of Taiwan and Fujian. Please beware of the Fujian Navy.

   Xiong Wencan discussed with his staff, Mr. Zhong and Mr. Liu, what has happened. Mr. Liu thought that fighting between the two sides is a good opportunity to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

  He said plausibly: "Taiwan Guards have always been rebellious and rebellious. It happened to take this opportunity to weaken their strength. They did not ask for help. We were happy to watch the excitement."

   Mr. Zhong believes that it is best to lose both sides, at least they are severely injured, so that the officers and soldiers have a chance to rejuvenate, they are all overwhelmed by the Southeast Mansion.

"But!" Mr. Zhong said: "In the opinion of the mountain people, we can give orders to Taiwan Guards to destroy the pirates and defend the sea and territories! We can also send 20 black boats and a thousand and five sergeants to Taiwan." He said. After a while, he said, "If you come to Taiwan to listen to it, you can obey the orders of Taiwan Guardian!"

   Mr. Liu was shocked, and he was waiting to refute, but he saw Xiong Wencan joyfully said: "Mr. Zhong said this is very good, and this official will do it according to his instructions."

  Mr. Zhong and Mr. Liu came out side by side. Mr. Liu asked: "Wen Shan (Mr. Zhong's character), you seem to be very optimistic that Taiwan Guard can win this battle?"

"Zhibara (Mr. Liu's words), it doesn't matter whether you are optimistic or not, the main thing is that that kid (Yan Changwu) is too young, he is less than twenty years old, and he has created such a big foundation, saying that he will be defeated when he is young. I really Don't believe it!" Mr. Zhong smiled bitterly.

   The two of them fell silent when they thought of the boy's age.

   It’s good to be young!

  ……

   The wind roars, breaking the waves like flying!

   The time was the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. The reconnaissance clippers reported that they had found traces of the Dutch fleet tens of miles away from the coast of Taiwan, and the direction was east to the west.

After simply offering sacrifices to Mazu and asking her elders to bless her people to fight smoothly, the Southeast Fleet was activated immediately, one after another warships left the port, the administrative center organized a large number of people to the dock to cheer, and the sailing warship officers and soldiers were emotional Full and high-willed to fight!

   Tiangong is beautiful, it's a cold air from the north going south, and the northwest wind is blowing hard!

   The Southeast Fleet is in the upper hand, heading to the sea where the enemy fleet is found!

   The Southeast Fleet, which has the upper wind position, took advantage of the downwind (it can obtain initiative and maneuverability, and gun smoke is blown to the enemy along the wind, enough to blind the enemy’s line of sight) to calmly meet the challenge from the Dutch fleet.

  Everyone was busy on their battleships, and many people looked at the tall stern of the giant ship "Taiwan" (third-tier battleship), where there was an existence beyond the imagination of the world: the black warrior Siresma!

   He was burned by gunpowder in the battle, lost a layer of skin, and lost his hair and eyebrows. He was originally a red-haired devil and ugly enough (from the eyes of Chinese people), but now he is as ugly as a Yaksha.

   To be honest, he was also quite depressed. He couldn't go back to his hometown in Holland, and he was disfigured and it was difficult to come out to see people. How could he lead soldiers? Make him depressed.

   Siresma is Yan Changwu's capable man. He has proved his worth in many battles. How can Yan Changwu allow such a useful person to sink into the demise!

   So he drew a pattern and sent someone to Foshan to create a set of unique gifts for Siresma!

   At the beginning of the 15th century, Foshan Tieye has been recorded in historical records. At the time of Chenghua and Hongzhi, most of Foshan residents used iron smelting as their business. Foshan Town is located at the confluence of Xijiang and Beijiang. Water around the fort is convenient, and water transportation is convenient. Most of the pig iron mined and smelted in various parts of Guangdong is transported down the river to the town to fry and cast mature iron ingots and other iron products. The iron smelting industry in Foshan Town is privately owned. Iron smelting households are called furnace households, and those hired by furnace households are craftsmen. Various furnaces have formed several industries due to the different types of fried cast iron products. According to the official announcement of Foshan's ironware industry in the eighth year of Chongzhen (1635), the fry casting industry includes: casting pots, cast iron stoves, frying wrought iron to make military weapons, drawing iron wires, making iron locks, and making farm tools Miscellaneous objects and nails, etc. Foshan ironware is sold at home and abroad.

   I have to say that the level of Foshan iron craftsmen is extremely high, and the level of realism is extremely high. Yan Changwu, who was originally joking, was shocked when he saw the finished product.

  ……

The black armor of Lord Darth Vader (Salute to him!), the mask is made of black iron (the eyes are made of polished black crystal~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can transmit light), and the body armor is Made of leather (the breastplate is made of black iron), black breeches, black leather boots, plus a black cloak, and a shiny silver sword! (Unfortunately, I couldn't make a red sword for a while).

   The shoulders are embroidered with red in English: Maytheforcebewithme (the force is with me), very cool.

   The black mask is made to be nearly seven-point close to the mask of the characters in the movie. The difference is that there are many vents on the cheeks, but it is not easy to see through the clever combination.

   also has a lot of fine ventilation holes in the back of his head, plus the ventilation holes of his mouthparts, so that he will not be damaged by the heat.

   This helmet looks majestic, but it is very light and strong. With black leather armor, the weight is not a problem for the strong Sires.

   It is conceivable that when a tall Sires horse is worn out, it can receive the effect of "full silence".

   This gift was simply overjoyed for Siresma. He wore it triumphantly, wore it out to show off, and endured it even if he was sweating.

   So he came out to look at things, jumping up and down, walking around, lest others might not see him.

   If you have seen a real black warrior, you must know that the current black warrior is a fake, but the ancients have never seen it. When they played in Siresma, they didn't even dare to take a breath.

   Right now, he was wearing black armor and mask equipment, standing on the stern of the "Taiwan" to show off. At this time, the weather was cold and just right to wear.

   He was promoted to the captain of this huge ship!

   As the forward’s flagship captain, the Dutchman Siresma only felt that his body was full of force. He was full of spirits and was ready to beat up his compatriots and send them to see the Sea Dragon King!
