"...Your Majesty, we did not see any more sharks, but we encountered a storm."
Speaking of the storm, Liu Jin's expression changed. He was still frightened, "The storm was so terrible. The black clouds that covered the sky were like they were pressing down on my head. The heavy rain was so heavy that I couldn't see three feet in front of me." Something about distance.”
"Thankfully our 'Liu Jin' was extremely strong, and fortunately we received His Majesty's blessing. We managed to survive the apocalyptic storm, but the three supply ships were not so lucky... Your Majesty, Damn it, slaves, lost those three ships!"
Fu Xiaoguan listened carefully. In future voyages, it will be stipulated that all ships must write logbooks!
"Come, let me toast you!"
Liu Jin opened her mouth in astonishment, "A slave, a slave can sit with His Majesty at the same table. This is beyond the rules. I don't dare!"
"You, straighten up your back!"
Liu Jin straightened up uneasily, and then heard Fu Xiaoguan say very seriously: "I have told you a long time ago, what happened to the eunuchs? Eunuchs who can achieve such extraordinary achievements can also be granted the title of marquis and prime minister! Of course, Your contribution is not up to the level of becoming a prince or a prime minister, but you have already made greater contributions than most officials. I have decided..."
Fu Xiaoguan is a little embarrassed. This guy should be rewarded, but he can't be rewarded too much. This name is offensive to people. If he really creates a disaster, it will be troublesome. After all, he will run away sooner or later.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is what a slave should do. To get such praise from the Emperor, I have died without regrets. How dare I ask for any reward!"
Hey, this guy is pretty good.
Fu Xiaoguan was about to borrow the donkey to go down the slope, but he heard Liu Jin say again: "If the emperor does not give up, I am still willing to go to sea to open up territory for the emperor!"
This is possible!
Fu Xiaoguan laughed, thinking that would help you become a legend like the Three Treasures Eunuch.
"Okay, this sea is vast and connected to all four seas. You can rest easy. Next year, I will give you a fleet and you will personally command it, and then you will open up new territories for me!"
Liu Jin stood up, took three steps back, and knelt down with a bang, "I, I am willing to spend my whole life to carve out a big territory for Your Majesty on the other side of the sea!"
"Okay, get up. You will always be with me as long as you are in the palace."
"Slave, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Later, Liu Jin and Su Mo told the story of the trip in detail, and Fu Xiaoguan roughly confirmed that this world is not much different from the previous life.
And he felt a little more at ease after knowing that Su Jue and Gao Yuanyuan had crossed the Bering Strait. If his prediction was correct, the route they took was within the former Bear Country.
Winter is about to enter now, and I don’t know where the two of them have gone.
"You all have a good night's rest in Jiangcheng tonight. Tomorrow, Brother Eight will lead the troops to **** these treasures to Guanyun City. We need to make it more lively and write some slogans on the way back..."
"Just write: The "Liu Jin" has returned from the ocean, with fruitful results, a vast sea, and infinite treasures... roughly what it means, beating gongs and drums all the way back!"
Su Mo was startled, "Junior brother, what are you doing? Why don't we keep quiet? Let's go plunder again next spring!"
Fu Xiaoguan laughed, "It is natural to plunder. It will take at least one or two years for private capital to enter the large-scale navigation. In these two years, our fleet will sweep across all countries within the route."
"But we have to let everyone in the Wu Dynasty know that there are inexhaustible treasures on the other side of the sea. By then, the participation of private capital will no longer be plundering, but trade."
Bai Yulian frowned slightly, drank a glass of wine, and asked: "So... our goal is not to occupy or eliminate those countries?"
Fu Xiaoguan shook his head, "It's not entirely true. You have to occupy part of it, such as this line..."
He spread out the map and traced the route with his finger, "Starting from our seaport to the Liu Kingdom, the three countries on this line, we can use force to make them surrender, and then garrison them. Because we want to Using their seaport is also for the safety of the caravan in the future."
"But the route from Ryukyu to the Bering Strait has not actually been explored. We don't know which countries are along the route, so next year..."
Fu Xiaoguan looked at Liu Jin, "Next year you will continue to explore this route. What I want to know is how many other countries are on this route and whether they are strong?"
"The slave obeys the order!"
"My goal is to have its own ports in all coastal countries, which means to station troops. Therefore, the navy will have to expand its recruitment, and the same will be true for the Marine Corps."
“This is to ensure our country’s absolute superiority in maritime force, and also to make it easier and safer for merchant ships to enter and exit in the future.”
Bai Yulian nodded, he now understood the huge benefits of this robbery.
He who is not of my race will have a different heart, and he will not have any burden in his heart to rob other countries.
"The world is big, but the population of the Wu Dynasty is not large, so in the end even if we find out all the routes, we can't capture them all. There is only one way for the future, to carry out ocean-going trade with absolute military strength . By that time, foreign goods will enter our country, and our country’s goods will also be imported into foreign countries. It will be a colorful era. ”
……
……
To maintain strategic advantage at sea, the only way is a strong navy.
For the Wu Dynasty, the navy was a brand new service. Even though Bai Yulian spent more than a year training meticulously according to Fu Xiaoguan's methods, when they boarded the fearless-class battleship for the first time, they still Not very skilled.
On the second day, Fu Xiaoguan bid farewell to Su Mo and Liu Jin. He took Bai Yulian, Jia Nanxing and Bei Wangchuan to board the experimental ship.
The experimental ship set sail again, sailed down the Yangtze River, and arrived at the offshore sea two days later.
Fu Xiaoguan didn’t know how many knots this speed was. According to Jiang Song, the captain of the ship, it was at least four times faster than a three-masted sailboat!
The navy soldiers are familiar with the operation of the cannon. They have trained countless times on the shore, but it is different at sea.
Ships in the sea are not as stable as those on land.
They need to readjust to reloading, aiming, and shooting in the bumpy terrain.
The sound of cannons rumbling at sea, Fu Xiaoguan sat on the deck of the third floor and blew the sea breeze, watching happily.
His thoughts are not on how to train these soldiers. What he is thinking about at the moment is that when the internal combustion engine is invented, he will have to build a big yacht!
When everything is on track, I should take my wife and children on a yacht, bask in the sun on the sea, and fish for sharks.
Fu Xiaoguan was thinking happily here. No one knew that the natives of the place called Alaska had now been completely colonized by a group of fleets from Europe.
The dragon flag that Liu Jin planted in the center of the town had also been cut off by the pirates.
They obtained silk and porcelain from the natives, and they looked further east.
