Chapter 418

After looking at the design parameters of the Victory, Fang Qiang's decision has been made.This ship is relatively good in terms of speed and attack power, and its cost is not very high!Simply an excellent choice for expedition fleets.

"Okay, old man, let's make a decision, and we will build this sailing battleship Victory! But how much is suitable? Do you have a specific charter!"

Zhao Dashuan said: "Commander, the old man thinks that the battleship Victory is only suitable for forward use, so there should not be too many ships in a fleet, ten ships are enough! As for the rest, just build treasure ships, as you said, This ship can carry a lot of artillery, and it can be used as a main battleship!"

Fang Qiang and Zhao Dashuan discussed for a while, and finally decided that only five treasure ships in a fleet are enough.After all, the displacement of this type of ship is huge, and the materials and labor consumed are also astronomical. If they are built in large quantities, the finances in the territory will not be able to bear it!
"Commander, as you said, after the workers come back, we will rush to build a total of ten sailing battleships Victory and five Zheng He treasure ships!"

"Old man, I made a mistake. I plan to build forty sailing battleships Victory and twenty Zheng He's treasure ships!"

"Ah?" Hearing this, Zhao Dashuan's eyes widened in surprise. It's not that it can't be done, it's just that this number is too laborious and costly. Huaxia's sea area is so big, what's the use of building so many warships?
Zhao Dashuan said: "Marshal, this number is too much! What's the use of having so many warships? In the generation of the Yangtze River, the most powerful naval force was Chen Youliang, but he has become a thing of the past! So we made the fleet so large It's of no use at all!"

"Is it really useless?" Fang Qiang looked towards the direction of the mouth of the Yangtze River, and then said quietly: "Old man, this world is really too big, so big that there is no limit at all! Do you know that in the sea On the other side, there is a country known as the coachmen of the sea is rising. For them, sailing on the sea is like driving a carriage on land! From this, you can imagine how powerful their navigation industry is. Sooner or later we will fight with them That's right! So I plan to build four fleets, and expand them if needed!"

"What?" It was the first time Zhao Dashuan heard such remarks, and he couldn't help being surprised at the moment. He didn't doubt that Fang Qiang would tell some far-fetched lies, because it was completely unnecessary!

In other words, all of this is true. Is there really such a powerful water empire on the other side of the sea?

With only knowledge, the old man couldn't imagine how powerful the sea coachman was at his peak, but this did not prevent his blood from boiling.Because I also have the confidence to build a huge fleet.

Thinking of this, Zhao Dashuan's heart was filled with unprecedented enthusiasm. He said: "Don't worry, Shuai, I will build an invincible fleet for you even if I work hard! Otherwise, I will never rest in peace!"

The conversation between Fang Qiang and Zhao Dashuan ended here, because the old man didn't want to see Fang Qiang anymore. He had to seize the time to review the drawings of these battleships and strive to design a reasonable structure in the shortest time!

The idea of ​​the old man is obvious. Although these warships are classics, there is no reason why they cannot be more outstanding.It turns out that you can indeed see farther by standing on the shoulders of giants!
Early the next morning, all the jubilant boatmen came back. After yesterday's rest, everyone was full of energy.

What the boatmen enjoy the most is the envious eyes of the neighbors. The benefits of the shipyard are better. Not only are the wages high, but they also give out things every now and then!
The condolences that Fang Qiang brought this time were all high-end products, canned food, cloth, refined salt, and even a small bag of monosodium glutamate, which was a rare good thing!Only the most high-end daily necessities store sells it!
So these boatmen are very proud, a day off is quite like returning home!
This person is full of energy when he is excited, not only these workers, but also Zhao Dashuan!

No, when he saw the boatmen coming back on time, Zhao Dashuan, who had not slept all night, immediately got into work mode and found his most proud apprentice to arrange various matters!

Fang Qiang is a layman in these matters, so he didn't stop much, and rushed to the Jinling Navy without stopping.

Nowadays, the location of the Jinling Navy has been changed from the original Jinling to the Pearl River Delta area. These are all deliberate actions by Fang Qiang, just because this is the estuary of the Yangtze River.

Fang Qiang's navy cannot be confined to the river, and will sail to the sea sooner or later, so it is better to start training now!

April and May are the time when it is warm and cold, but the soldiers of the Navy are all good guys who roll in the river all the year round, and they dare to train in the sea with only a pair of underpants.

Pants are Fang Qiang's invention, far more convenient than underwear in this era!Sailors wearing it can not only move freely, but also avoid embarrassment to a large extent.So this thing has been unanimously praised by the Jinling Navy since its invention.

When Fang Qiang came to the Jinling Navy, he didn't inform anyone, so Yu Tonghai, Heitou and others were not there, and only Feiyu was left in the entire Jinling Navy's top management.Then there is the three thousand standing army!

"Brother Qiang, why are you here? Anyway, let me tell you in advance, you see, I'm not prepared for this..."

Fei Yu's words were indeed sincere, but Fang Qiang didn't misunderstand anything because of this, he knew Fei Yu well, and knew that he was just like this person, sometimes he was very smart, sometimes he was lacking.

"Boy, since you call me Brother Qiang, you don't need to prepare anything! How about the injury on your butt?"

"It's okay, Brother Qiang! The doctor said that it will be fine after seven or eight days, but I'm already alive and well. I really want to go to train recruits with Brother Heitou, but the deputy commander said that I won't let me go into the water." !"

Flying Fish still had that carefree personality, he didn't care about the injury on his butt at all.

Speaking of Feiyu's injury, there are some allusions. When attacking Chen Youliang's water village last time, Fang Qiang's flagship took the lead. This kind of commander's risky behavior is not in line with the rules. Feiyu was blamed in the post-war discussion.

Fang Qiang was not merciful due to the affection of Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang and others, so Feiyu was beaten with a military stick in the end, and his official position was also beaten to the end.

But this kid doesn't care at all, he should eat and sleep, and no one in the Jinling Navy regards him as a soldier. After all, his qualifications are there, and he has a good relationship with the black head. The important thing is that he took the blame for Fang Qiang!

So no one took the official position seriously.As long as Fang Qiang gives an order, Feiyu will definitely be reinstated as an official, maybe this official will be even bigger than before!
