Lord of Ming Dynasty

But this takes time.

The busyness on his side, no matter how busy he is, is nothing more than a trivial matter. Anyway, Panama has already been taken, and the next step is to consolidate and let these populations survive here. That is the business of him, the civil affairs officials here, and Zhuang Lin. What are you doing?

At the same time, he also hoped that Luo Zuo would send some food back to supply the canal. The captives and guards who dug the canal, and the huge army stationed there all needed food, and the population sent by the third batch had seamlessly connected with the population on the south bank of the canal. The second and fourth groups of people, as well as the troops stationed on the Colombian border, did not have enough food. They were all implementing a rationing system, but they still ate the last meal without the next meal.

The food here needs to be harvested, and it will take at least two months to deliver it. If there is any delay, it will enter winter. Although the winter here is not too cold and short, it is still winter. Heavy snow is not good, I am afraid people will starve to death.

The only good news is that the Chinese Empire sent a fleet from Hawaii to attack the Spanish fleet in the Pacific Ocean, and shipped a batch of food to Panama City and the 7 workers who excavated that section, otherwise the food gap is still increasing.

The first half of the canal has been completed, and a one-mile-wide temporary waterway has been excavated in the middle section. In addition, the mud at the bottom of Gatun Lake has been cleaned up in the early stage. In fact, Gatun Lake can already pass through the [-]-ton ship, which is almost possible in this century. It is almost enough to meet the needs. The later construction is the construction of the ports on both sides of the lake. The second half is rocky and the terrain is rough, so it is more difficult, but it can basically pass ships over [-] tons. It can be said that in another year or a half, if it is properly repaired, most of the current ships will be able to pass through, even in the next century, most of the ships will be able to pass through.

It's just that these high-level people from the new Qin State in China still want to do it once and for all, continue to dig deep, continue to build larger ports, and even build a huge Gatun Lake fleet to berth in ports and shipyards.

There is a section of the ship lock in Gatun Lake that is being built. After the ship lock is completed, the last section of the ship lock is still under discussion. In the stage of preparing materials, once the dredging is almost completed, the construction of the ship lock will begin.

But this takes time.

The busyness on his side, no matter how busy he is, is nothing more than a trivial matter. Anyway, Panama has already been taken, and the next step is to consolidate and let these populations survive here. That is the business of him, the civil affairs officials here, and Zhuang Lin.

The Kingdom has now turned its attention to the naval battle with the British

The first thousand and 560 chapters of the British fleet mobilization 1

The British approach is different from the new Qin State. They have enough colonies to transfer these warships, and they also have enough factories to build warships for other countries without losing money and resources, and earn profits from building new warships. The berths can build their own warships, enrich and update their own fleet. After making up for the losses of the previous war, the second-generation ironclad ships they started to build immediately began to replace the old warships in the fleet, and even put the newly built new warships Selling it to an opponent is to attack and encircle the new Qin State.

There is no way for the New Qin State to compare with them. Because of the secret resistance of these European countries, their trade volume this year has dropped from the previous 15 to 11 this year, and it is still declining. This is better. The trade volume of the Chinese Empire is on the rise, and warships and food have become the main commodities of their trade.

As for the trade between the Chinese Empire and the West, the trade with the British was 30, and the trade with the Spaniards was 70. Affected by this battle, it dropped to 50, and the trade with the Portuguese increased to 15. The trade of people has increased from 18 before to 80. After all, China has no hatred with the Netherlands now.

To put it bluntly, now the New Qin Kingdom relies on the Huaxia Kingdom for free assistance, and the cargo ships from the Pacific Ocean are docked at the ports of Peru and Panama City, and the supplies and food are then transported to the mainland, but because of the long distance, it takes a long time to come. So for the time being it doesn't work.

The Spanish fleet in the Pacific Ocean is still not wiped out. They hid in the ports of North America and Central America, and suddenly attacked. At present, the Panama City, the coast of Panama, and the coast of South America are protected by the Hawaiian fleet of the Chinese Empire, which is unavoidably difficult to maintain.

Moreover, the fleet of the Huaxia Empire is mainly equipped with the imitation model of the iron-clad ship III. Their own new iron-clad ship has not yet been developed. This is not good when the country is big. Everything is procrastinated. It is not Zhang Qiang who said at this time It's time to make the final decision. With the rapid operation of the government's administrative functions, many things cannot be decided by one person. The emperor is not as strong as Zhang Qiang was when he was alone at that time. He must balance the demands and interests of all parties, so Up to now, they may have come up with countless plans, and they may have more advanced technology and abundant resources and strength, but it is even more difficult to come up with a suitable warship, because the interests of all parties are not well balanced.

In other words, the Huaxia Empire is faltering. The second child officially became the emperor, the third child's grandson became the crown prince, and the third child became the prime minister. This is already the third generation of emperor, and soon the third child's grandson will take over the throne The throne of the three generations of emperors is getting farther and farther away from Zhang Qiang's era at that time, and naturally has its own thinking and operating methods.

Therefore, the relationship between the new Qin State and the Huaxia Empire is getting weaker and weaker. If it weren’t for the fourth prince acting as an emotional shield, it might be even weaker now. The battle between the generals will return to the usual track of the Chinese nation in the past.

Now the latest battleship of the Huaxia Empire is actually the Ironclad Type IV, not an improved model. This is two generations behind the warships of the New Qin Kingdom. They will be even worse after imitating them. The warships they serve most now are actually The 120 Type III ironclad ships sold to them by the New Qin State were followed by [-] first-generation iron-clad ships of the Type IV sold to them by the New Qin State, [-] second-generation ships, and [-] third-generation ships that they imitated. type improved.

But these warships are assigned to their own fleet and vast sea territory, which is a drop in the bucket. Although they are being built one after another, they still cannot meet the demand. In terms of performance, it is not inferior to those steam engine warships that have just started in the West, but for Britain and Spain, especially the new Qin State, it has fallen behind a lot.

The first thousand and 560 chapters of the second British fleet mobilization 2

The British fleet is mobilizing more and more frequently for the new Qin State. While ensuring the smooth flow of its commercial and trade routes, the New Qin State has sent more warships to various places. Some ironclad ships that are about to be dismantled are dragged out and remodeled. After a while, he joined the ranks of the patrol fleet to ensure the safety of his own route, and at the same time speed up the offline speed of warships. Each fleet added six main battleships.

The Wunan fleet has increased to eighteen capital ships, and the other fleets have increased to ten capital ships to form a fleet. The cruisers will increase to 48 in the next month, the Wunan fleet has increased to 32 cruisers, and the other fleets have increased to ten cruisers Five ships, and five cruisers can be deployed to support the Wunan Fleet when necessary.

In the future, there will be ten capital ships, twelve cruisers, and thirty improved frigates of the Ironclad IV.

The new state of Qin has really tried its best and started to build new warships to make up for the gap in the number of warships with the United Kingdom.

But the British approached step by step, not only sent three super fleets to besiege the Azov Islands, but also sent the Caribbean super fleet and the Caribbean Sea fleet to attack their route communication with Panama's new Dingyang state, cutting off their communication with the Azov Islands. The connection with the Dutch colonial port has also been cut off with the French colonial port. The fleet of Xindingyang Prefecture has to escort the large fleet every time to return to Xindingzhou through a detour of thousands of kilometers, the mainland, the mainland and Xindingzhou Only under the guidance of the fleet can they return safely.

Although it is not time to start the fight, both sides are already at war, but their real opponent, the Spaniard fleet, keeps secret and there is no movement. This makes Zhuang Lin feel very uncomfortable, because the British fleet restrains them. Forces, if the Spanish fleet comes to attack here, they will become no fleet available.

With the approaching of the war, the Portuguese and Spanish merchant fleets have disappeared, and they will not trade in the new Qin state. The trade between Xinding Yangzhou and the mainland, and the trade of Xindingzhou will return to the previous war with the British and Portuguese in an instant. previous predicament.

The French also cut off the trade with the mainland of the new Qin State, and the colonial trade is still going on.

Due to the intensified conflict between the Dutch and the British, they temporarily stood on the side of the new Qin State. The trade between the two sides not only had no effect, but also increased the trade volume to 500 million Spanish gold coins per year. The exchanges between the two sides became closer. For this reason, the New Qin Kingdom sold them thirty new iron-clad warships of Type III to help them consolidate their colonies in the Caribbean Sea, and at the same time sold them nearly fifty of the twenty iron-clad warships of Type III that were repurchased from the Chinese Empire. Fake version of the battleship.

The first thousand and 560 chapters and three Spanish fleet mobilization

Under such circumstances, the navy, the center of the new Qin State, and the three palace families are all frowning, because the British alone are the kind of people who will not give up until they are killed. Why, the British have to rest for five years, and everyone signed some treaties with each other, and the truce ended. There were enough casualties on both sides, but the new Qin Kingdom just recovered, and the British started to provoke again. Three years.

Li Ya's breathing is a little uneven. Previously, because of the fierce struggle of the New Qin Empire, many diseases were left behind. Now he is old, and people in their 50s are a little old. They have held a closed-door meeting for several hours. Even the fourth prince This old man in his 70s is more energetic than him, although now he is more tired and haggard after a few hours.

Mo Lin and the others are not young anymore, they are also in their fifties, and the young people behind them have not yet fully reached the point where they can control the situation, so they still have to work hard.

All present here are naval generals and ministers of the kingdom. After expressing their opinions, they are a little tired, but everyone seems to have not found a way to defeat the British, let alone the Spaniards.

Wu Nan is introducing the situation to everyone. He is at the forefront, fighting against the British and Spaniards, so he knows more about the situation of all parties.
