Chapter 274 Rakshasa
In the office of the Dongyang Military Government, Bai Yuanjie looked at Chen Mu and sat on the chair and shook her head constantly: "You are really a god. You are not in the capital, and the holy family is rising. Look at Your Majesty, who specializes in writing long letters and is the only one in the world."
What could Chen Mu say? He didn't expect it.
In fact, he completely understood that the little emperor had put a lot of effort into moving the house in Nanyang Guard Port to outside the Forbidden City as the guilt that the emperor could not be named a marquis.
It is very likely that the emperor had no idea what to give him to make him happy.
But Chen Mu felt this feeling.
Bai Yuanjie said: "Don't think that the emperor gave you less rewards. If it is just a house, it is indeed too weak to the ministers of meritorious deeds, but the emperor gave it not only a house, but also..."
"Brother is joking. Others don't know you don't know yet. I don't value MG money. I serve the country and I want to do what I want to do. Your Majesty gives me authority to allow me to do. I have nothing to ask for."
Chen Mu shook his head with great satisfaction, and gently swung his customs declaration document in his hand, saying, "This is the greatest support from the court."
As the emperor was about to become an adult, his work became bigger and bigger.
Last year, Chen Mu believed that it was already the limit. From Majiagang to Changsheng, he was busy in order to accommodate those ships and immigrant soldiers, but he didn't know that this year was even more powerful.
According to the statistics in the official document, there are 2,116 ships, but not so many people this year. In addition to the Beiyang third phase one guard, there are also Tengxiang left and right guards trained by the emperor. Including the sailors and boatmen drawn by Nanyang, they are just over 20,000.
Chen Mu was surprised by the change in his mentality. He looked at the Zou Magistrate sitting below and said, "With the experience of last year, the imperial court sent more than 20,000 people this year, but Chen didn't feel that there were too many."
Zou Yuanbiao felt the same way.
The magistrate, even so swollen that he said to Chen Mu at the first glance when he saw the official document: General, if there are 20,000 more troops, we can afford to be supported by the 20,000 soldiers.
What's the meaning?
It means that this army does not have to go to Jinchengtun or stay in Majiagang to suffer from cold. They can only win the money and food they eat.
Actually, there are a lot, too many.
"Brother, is this warship organization wrong? The official document says that Your Majesty will leave me eight hundred ships, and it also says that these are warships."
Chen Mu raised his hand and waved it in front of him, saying, "I have seen all the ships moored in Changsheng Bay. There are not many warships inside, most of them are merchant ships, and they are green-headed merchant ships, why aren't they red-headed ships?"
They are all in the shape of a lucky boat, but the paint has changed. More than half of the lucky boats have green faces.
"The official document is right, and your Majesty is right. This time, the 800 ships of the ever-winning ships were allocated, 300 small ships with 3400 materials, and 356 large ships with 400 materials of more than 400 materials were merchant ships from the perspective of the South China Sea in the past, and only 144 were regular warships."
Bai Yuanjie said as she held her hand on the table and raised her finger, saying, "The warships are the twelve six-ding six-armor god fleets, each fleet has twelve battleships, the flagships are two 1,500-meter-grade ships, the main warships are four thousand-stock Chihai-class, and the auxiliary warships are six four-stock shark-class gunboats."
"This idea was not taken by the Forbidden City. It was the Nanyang Military Office who submitted a memorial, and the Beiyang discussion was issued in the court, and the fleet regulations were finally decided to be prepared for the naval battles and facilitate your expansion. Can the 100-material ships and 200-material ships in Asia be built by themselves, right?"
Chen Mu smiled, who did he underestimate? He said: "More than that, Majiagang was able to build its own 400-material warship last year, but it was just that iron was short of iron and could not make cannons; it was a bit difficult to build 400-material materials in Jincheng, mainly because the wood is still drying. The materials this year are similar. You can try to build a thousand-material ship, and three should be launched by the end of the year."
"It's okay to build a 400-four-ship ship in Changsheng, but he didn't plan to build it. It's not suitable to build it on the west coast. It still has to be built on the east coast. The canal has not been excavated yet, and it will be difficult to build it even if it is smooth and it will be difficult to build it in less than five years. It's estimated that it will take 20,000 miles from the west coast to the east coast."
Chen Mu showed a little discouraged as he said, but it was not easy to build a ship on the East Coast? There were many roads in front of him, but each one was not that suitable.
"It's OK to build it. Beiyang's mobilization of the fleet this time is to supplement your main battleships. To form a real Liuding Liujia fleet, each fleet must also add at least twenty-four warships with a hundred to four hundred materials."
It is obvious that the franchise of the twelve Liuding Liujia fleets can greatly improve the combat capabilities of the Oriental Fleet, but in order to effectively form combat effectiveness, they must have at least three places to settle in Europe.
"But the court has also considered you. You can build the four hundred materials warships yourself, and the remaining grain ships are supplemented by the 656 warships sent by the court. Although Siyang thinks that new ships are good, these old ships are indeed warships in the past."
Bai Yuanjie's words reminded Chen Mu that the lucky ship was indeed a warship in the past.
"But I didn't see any cannons on the ship."
Chen Mu nodded slowly. He took over the court's intention, but now his imaginary enemy is European countries. If there are no cannons on the ship, how can he be called a warship? The artillery production capacity of Asia is not even as good as that of the Ming Dynasty. Even if a green-browed ship in the shape of this kind of lucky ship is placed on two Francis machines, he cannot build it.
"These ships have a new name, called Jade-faced Rakshasa. These ships have been transformed in the two oceans of the north and south. The draft is deep. According to your drainage method, they are all small boats of 160,000 to 200,000 kilograms."
Chen Mu didn't have to think about it in his mind, four hundred materials, the civilian ships with shallow drafts drain about sixty or seventy tons, while the warships with deep drafts were hundreds or ten tons. He knew very well.
But he didn't understand the reason for the name, and he could understand it if it was Green Face, but Chen Mu really didn't think it had anything to do with the Green Eyebrow Ship.
"The report you sent to the court said that Asia has tincture oil, tin, and there is still a lot of tin. If there is tin, there is no shortage of gunpowder. What combat power can these ships be exerted after being incorporated into the Dingjia fleet depends on your gunpowder."
Self-destruction of the ship?
Chen Mu blinked, Daming hadn't reached such a level of burning bags, why did he load two or three thousand kilograms of gunpowder on each ship to hit others?
The key is that the tonnage is not large, and it is difficult to break others.
When he saw Chen Mu's eyes, Bai Yuanjie knew that he had thought it was wrong. He shook his head and said seriously: "Don't underestimate them. Although he can't withstand the back seat of the heavy artillery, the Nanyang Military Palace installed four 24-unit Vulcan machine arrows on the upper decks, and four launchers were built in each direction. In wartime, ninety-six rockets that can fire thousands of steps can be released in an instant."
"There is tincture in the arrow. If the tincture tank is shot, it will break. The arrow explodes and starts to fire. If it gets stuck in the boat, it will burn. One arrow is not powerful, but it can be fired in a volley of seven or eight boats in three or five hundred steps. Hundreds of rockets can't stand the sails of hundreds of rockets."
This is a little crazy.
Not to mention too many things to catch up with the sea battle, even if only twenty are released into the enemy ship group, it can cause chaos. What does it feel like when the sails in front of the warship cluster suddenly caught fire during the assault?
Before Chen Mu could laugh, Bai Yuanjie said, "Don't be too happy too early. Nanyang has installed twelve rockets for each ship. The rest depends on how many fire arrows you can build."
"It's okay if you can't build it, they can still be used as transport ships."
