Chapter one hundred and sixty-eight sea drill

As soon as he left the palace, Zhu Houzhao was like a wild horse running away, and no one dared to control him outside, so he let go of his horse’s hooves and ran around recklessly.

This time, more than a hundred officials brought by Zhu Houzhao brought the Ministry of Industry to come here this time, so that the Ministry of Industry would come to see the navy of Daming, so that they could develop the artillery and battleships of the navy of the society more quickly.

Zhu Houzhao didn’t want to wait ten or eight years. By that time, people’s youth will be gone forever, so what about passion? Although it is difficult to manufacture iron armored warships, Zhu Houzhao believes that the Ministry of Industry has this ability.

Zhu Houzhao let your concubines and show girls live in the palace. These women cannot be allowed to board the ship. It is not that they cannot board the ship, but the Ming Dynasty has a strict ancestral system, and women cannot board the ship.

There was a legend before that, if a woman boarded a ship, it would be favored by the Dragon King, and then it would be an unlucky thing.

Zhu Houzhao rode on a sweaty BMW, the cloak behind him fluttered in the wind, looking majestic and majestic.

This golden helmet and gold armor, boots under his feet, and the sword of the emperor on his waist, looked majestic, like a general with full of fighting spirit.

Long live my emperor, long live, long live!

After Zhu Houzhao rode for a mad lap, he felt that his whole body was full of energy. At this time, the young man with strong vigor was in high spirits. He jumped off the horse proudly and accepted the kowtows of the ministers.

Tanggukou.

The warships stood there row upon row, as if they were specially inspected by Zhu Houzhao. The warship at the head was the newly built treasure ship Zheng He. This main warship was even bigger than the four or five surrounding warships. much higher.

Moreover, this 100-meter-high main battleship will not sink even if it encounters a big storm.

Zhu Houzhao excitedly boarded the main battleship of the treasure ship Zheng He, overlooking the entire Tanggu mouth, with hundreds of ships large and small.

Is this my Ming Navy? This is what I saw with my own eyes.

Jin Ge iron horse, the Ming Dynasty navy that swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger!

These outstanding sailors who were trained by Qi Jingtong stood there with arrogance, and shouted long live the emperor!

Zhu Houzhao watched the morale of all the soldiers shake, and couldn’t help but feel a little happy. Reach out for everyone to be quiet.

In an instant, the entire Tanggukou fell into a state of silence.

Order and prohibition, this is the quality of this most disciplined Ming navy.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the majestic Ming Navy and was very excited.

The loyal minister Qi Jingtong did not live up to his expectations.

Zhu Houzhao turned his head and called to Qi Jingtong behind him: “Qi Aiqing”

“The minister is here!”

“Do you still remember the promise I made with you?”

Qi Jingtong cupped his hands and said, “I will never forget the words of Your Majesty!”

“Well, I am very relieved that the Daming Navy has achieved this achievement in your hands, and I will also fulfill the promise of the year.”

“I will now give you the title of Wei Prince Taibao. One day, if I have a prince, I will definitely worship you as my teacher!”

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he looked at Qi Jingtong proudly.

Qi Jingtong hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, “Your Majesty, how can the minister He De be treated like this by His Majesty? All this depends on His Majesty’s prestige!”

“You built the Daming Navy for me. This is your credit. I once said that we should reward those who have contributed to the Daming Navy.”

“Thank you for your decree!”

Zhu Houzhao sealed Qi Jingtong, turned around and said to the guards beside him, “Going to sea, I want to go out by boat and check the power of my Ming Navy and artillery!”

“According to the order!”

woohoo woo…

The sound of the ship’s horn sounded, and the Ming navy set sail, heading for the sea.

Qi Jingtong of the General Administration of the Navy, Liang Chu, Minister of Household, Li Suide, Minister of Industry, and dozens of Daming executives all stood behind Zhu Houzhao.

The magnificent world appeared in front of Zhu Houzhao, and the Bohai Sea was just outside the mouth of Tanggu.

Zhu Houzhao stared at the sea on Zheng He’s warship, turned to Qi Jingtong and said, “Are there any pirates or Japanese pirates around here, I want to test your artillery?”

Qi Jingtong’s face turned pale when he heard Zhu Houzhao’s words.

After more than a year of hard work, within 100 nautical miles of the surrounding area, not to mention pirates come to pick quarrels and stir up trouble, even the ships from the neighboring countries have never seen it.

Even if there are warships of a country to conduct trade, they must pay tribute to the customs before they can enter.

Japanese pirates and pirates could not be seen in these hundreds of miles.

Besides, this Zhu Houzhao is the honor of Ninety-five, and he came to test the ship in person. How could he carelessly hide pirates around him? If it happens, he will not be easy to deal with!

Qi Jingtong cupped his hands and said, “If you go back to Your Majesty, there are no pirates and Japanese pirates nearby. After the establishment of our Daming Navy, there are no pirates or Japanese pirates in the vicinity for more than a hundred miles.”

After listening to Qi Jingtong’s report, Zhu Houzhao felt a little disappointed in his heart.

“However, Your Majesty, even if there are no pirates or Japanese pirates, this minister can still show your Majesty’s artillery.”

“Well, you have full discretion!”

According to the previous arrangement, Qi Jingtong changed the formation of the naval warships. In addition to the supply warships, the warships equipped with artillery were also exposed from the back, and the black artillery muzzles were directly facing the sea.

On the other side is the Daming artillery, which is also lined up.

Zhu Houzhao looked at these majestic cannons, and a warm feeling rose in his heart.

“Your Majesty, it’s time to review the power of the Ming Navy’s warships and artillery!

Qi Jingtong stood behind Zhu Houzhao and handed over to Zhu Houzhao.

“Okay, let’s get started!”

As soon as Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, Qi Jingtong waved at the sailor and the gunner.

In an instant, ten thousand guns were fired, and more than a hundred gunboats opened fire towards the sky. Suddenly there was smoke of gunpowder all around, and the sea seemed to be boiling.

As one after another huge waves set off, even Zheng He’s treasure ship swayed.

Many officials were unsteady and staggered as if they were drunk. Only Zhu Houzhao stood there motionless, his eyes like torches!

The shocking artillery scene surprised all the civil and military officials present. To be honest, this was the most powerful artillery drill they had ever seen in their lives.

The scene of the ten thousand guns firing made many people feel extremely shocked.

The artillery washed out countless flames from the muzzle, and the shells danced with the smoke…

When the artillery spewed out of the barrel, the huge counterattack made the entire warship sway violently.

After the shelling ended, the sea gradually returned to calm, but the sea was filled with gunpowder smoke, which could not be dissipated for a long time.

On the treasure ship of Zheng He~www.readmtl.com~ Zhu Houzhao was sitting on the deck, and the civil and military officials behind him were all whispering about the power of Daming’s artillery.

This scene is truly spectacular, enough to be remembered for a lifetime by those present.

For three consecutive days, Zhu Houzhao ate and lodged on Zheng Hehao’s warship, and the Daming navy rode the wind and waves and sailed on the boundless sea.

“How many nautical miles can this warship travel in a day?” Zhu Houzhao asked.

“If you go back to Your Majesty, if the wind is favorable, it can travel a thousand nautical miles a day, but if it is against the wind, it is estimated to be only more than 600 nautical miles, and you have to paddle the boat.”

Zhu Houzhao nodded thoughtfully and fell into contemplation. If the Ming warship was equipped with a steam engine, it would not only solve the problem of power, but also save a lot of labor.

Now the only one that can conquer all countries is the Daming battleship!
