The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

As mentioned earlier, the defenders of Zabdani city dared to resist the heavenly army. That is a death penalty and a living sin cannot escape.

Mr. David, a personable senior officer of the Southeast Army, was a slave trader in his bones. He was recognized in the Southeast and Southeast Army. This guy was so successful that he sold white women to two Chinese men. Selling a white man to Lulu, he is the most successful slave trader, and the most successful arms trader sells arms to fight his own country!

Those defenders of Zabdani city who fell into his hands are lucky enough? !

They were reduced to must-sell items and sold to red-haired slave traders.

Mr. David sold white people to Lulu and Lulu to white people, turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands as rain, which is breathtaking.

Because of the trust of Yan Changwu, Mr. David's slave trade business was carried out unaffected, and it was extremely prosperous, earning a lot of money.

Some advisers thought that his slave trade was detrimental to my image as a Chinese, and the discipline inspection officers checked the accounts and believed that he was corrupt, but no one could sue Mr. David.

However, when later scholars studied Mr. David’s life, he thought that he was "self-defeating" because Mr. David was an egg man and a gentleman among the Chinese. He had a good reputation and brilliant talent. In order to avoid the taboo of the king, the slave trade was carried out, so that there was a stain in life, and it reached a state of being with the dust.

Mr. David presided over the attack on the Ottoman Empire. When encountering resistance, he set a strategy to kill the leader. The rest were sold as slaves. The prisoners of Jabdani were about to be sold by him.

He established a slave trade network and sold them easily.

The prisoners of Zabdani regretted it too much. They remembered the words of Isaf Pasha, who had come to the camp to recruit people earlier: "If you don't join us, you will regret it after a while!"

Regret, it's too late!

The Southeast Army mobilized a large group of men and horses to surround the prisoners of war camps. As long as the prisoners of war dare to make trouble, they will **** suppression!

Originally two meals a day became one meal a day. When the prisoners were hungry, their eyes turned green, so there was no strength to rebel.

Under the **** of the army, the prisoners of war left the camp one after another and headed to the Mediterranean, where they would "deliver" by the sea.

Mediterranean?

There is the control area of ​​the Ottoman Navy, the Ottoman Navy has a powerful fleet!

Although they were very professional in colluding with the Chinese and Hong Maofans to do business and trading, tens of thousands of local prisoners of war were sold to Hong Maofan, and the relationship was too big. Even those staunch patriots in the Ottoman Empire would never dare to risk the world. Released.

Thinking of this festival, the prisoners of war comforted themselves: "Don't be afraid!"

But when they reached the edge of the Mediterranean Sea and saw the ship in the blue water, the hearts of the prisoners of war were frozen in the water!

The seaside was empty and did not see the ships of the Ottoman Navy. On the contrary, they saw the fleet of the Southeastern Navy. The flags they carried seemed to float over the sea, which made the prisoners of war feel extremely dazzling and breathless.

How is this possible!

Where is the powerful Ottoman fleet?

The sea breeze howled, as if responding to their call: "They have reached the bottom of the sea!"

A huge fleet has been sent to the bottom of the sea by the Southeastern Navy? !

...

As early as after occupying Syria and Egypt, the leaders, generals and staff of the Southeastern countries racked their brains to think about how to defeat the great empire.

The Ottoman Empire is called "God's Whip". Is it a joke? This is a powerful empire with millions of armors. Although it is going downhill, it is a lean camel that is bigger than a horse and should not be underestimated.

Among the many thoughts, there is the universally recognized "war is fought with money and food!" The reason why the Southeast Army succeeded is precisely the expression of this statement. The southeast country has money, some food, and many arms. Other countries worry about money and food. , Southeastern countries have long realized the freedom of money and food.

There is a big problem here, that is, how to transport money, food and materials to the front lines.

In the past, the Southeastern Army used to march on the mainland to fight on the coast or along the river, so that they could get the cover and supplies of the Southeastern Fleet.

Not to mention fighting in Southeast Asia, relying on fleet cover and supplies is nothing to lose.

Out of the Malacca Strait, the strength of support from the other side of the fleet determines the success or failure of the Southeast Army.

Therefore, the overseas colonies of the Southeastern countries are mostly established by the sea, which is very safe.

But to advance to the Ottoman Empire, there are big problems.

Looking at the map, if you march from the east, you can go to the Mesopotamia, but there are dense river networks and the supply fleet is very vulnerable to attack. This kind of thing has not happened before.

To the west is the Mediterranean Sea. The Mediterranean Sea is good. If you walk along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, you will eventually be able to reach Istanbul, and the supply will not be a problem.

However, the Southeastern Navy had no sails in the Mediterranean, and there were huge battleship formations in the air, which could not be sent to the Mediterranean.

If the fleet bypasses the Cape of Good Hope, travels along the west coast of Africa to Europe, and enters the Mediterranean through the Strait of Gibraltar?

Haha, home delivery, the risk is great for the southeast navy, and the temptation is great for Hong Maofan. As long as any Hong Maofan king is not dizzy, he will surely gather all the Hong Maofan fleet and turn the southeast fleet!

So what to do?

The solution to the problem ultimately fell on the former Mr. David David. He observed the situation of his side and believed that in order to ensure the victory of the army, the navy must be involved.

The Southeast Army’s army used the tactics of desperately shooting and firing. Without sufficient supplies, it would not be able to defeat the experienced and well-established Ottoman army.

The best way is to attack along the Mediterranean and use the fleet to supply supplies.

It’s a bit whimsical. It must be known that the Ottoman Empire had a powerful fleet in the Mediterranean. It was destroyed by the Red Hair in the Battle of Lepanto and the Ottoman fleet was destroyed. ) Just burned my beard (Fleet ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and I cut off one of your arms (Turks captured Malta)."

If this is the case, the strength of the Ottoman navy can be seen!

If the Southeast Army's supply fleet is not escorted, it will be meat buns and dogs, and there will be no return.

Mr. David thought of a way. According to the transportation capacity of the existing track, a single carriage can transport 30 tons, and the maximum is not more than 40 tons. Well, he will touch a type of the Southeast Army that weighs about 70 tons. The small warship was improved, divided into two, transported to Cairo by rail, and then assembled and placed in the Nile River. On the surface, it was used as an inland patrol boat, but in fact it was prepared to use them to carry the girders.

The Southeast has this transportation capability and assembly capability, and soon a fleet will be established on the Nile.

The hull of this warship is narrow and long, with a length and width of 30 meters, a length-to-width ratio of one to five, a sharp bow, a v-shaped bottom, no compartments, and dense ribs to ensure the structure of the hull. Sturdiness.

It is clean and tidy, there is no superstructure, only a rear console, which is very simple.

There is only one mast on the hull, with two soft sails, both of which are triangular. One front and one back, the area of ​​the two sails are about the same. The back belongs to the mainsail. The bottom is fixed on a crossbar and can be easily swung left and right The sail is adjusted to receive wind, while the front sail is a corner directly fixed at the bow position, one corner is hung on the mast through a pulley, and the lower part is controlled by a sail rope, which can be adjusted to the left and right sides of the ship at any time to obtain wind power.

When the admirals of the navy saw that Mr. David wanted to use this fragile sloop to challenge the Ottoman fleet, they were all in disbelief!
