Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 543 Discovery of a Large Shipyard
Zhu Youjian got up and walked out of the room with Mao Wenlong, and immediately called:
"Cao Zhengchun Azure Dragon."

In order to protect the emperor, Qinglong and Cao Zhengchun never walked more than twenty steps away from the emperor.

Hearing the emperor calling them, the two immediately appeared in front of Zhu Youjian, bowing and saluting:
"Humble post, may I ask what your Majesty's order is?"

"Let someone prepare the horse, I'm going out of the city."

"According to the purpose"

The two did not leave immediately after receiving the decree. They looked at Mao Wenlong warily and asked:
"Your Majesty, who is this?"

Zhu Youjian smiled slightly and said:

"Oh, let me introduce, this is Mao Wenlong, who I just summoned to help Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong."

Qinglong Cao Zhengchun was summoned by the system, and they were not surprised when the emperor said that.

After the two of them and Mao Wenlong introduced themselves, they immediately ordered Jin Yiwei to prepare horses to assemble the team.

Soon Jin Yiwei led the horses, Zhu Youjian and Mao Wenlong flew on the horses, and under the protection of Qinglong Cao Zhengchun and two hundred guards, they went straight to the city gate.

The defenders in the city were shocked by the sudden appearance of the army outside the city, and immediately closed the city gate, preparing to go back and report to Qi Jiguang.

Seeing the emperor's guard coming suddenly, he hurried forward. See:

"See Your Majesty, an army suddenly appeared outside the city, and we just wanted to report to the governor."

Zhu Youjian waved his hand:
"It's okay, that's the army I sent, open the city gate."

"According to the purpose"

The guards of the city gate didn't dare to ask more questions, so they opened the gate immediately.

Mao Wenlong's 3000 men were just two miles outside the city.

When Zhu Youjian and the others arrived, they immediately found that the group of summoners had already lined up neatly.

Seeing the emperor coming, he immediately shouted:
"See your lord."

Zhu Youjian nodded slightly:

"Soldiers, no courtesy!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Youjian heard that the discipline of Phi Island's defenders was very poor, but today he saw that it was not the case at all.

They all stood upright, staring straight ahead, exuding a murderous air, and at first glance they were a well-trained team with strict military regulations.

Zhu Youjian turned his head and said to Mao Wenlong:

"You will stay on this land in the future, and everything must be based on the interests of Daming. You must cooperate with King Ding to manage the overseas territories of Daming. There must be no mistakes."

Mao Wenlong hastily cupped his fists:

"Be careful, Your Majesty, the ministers will always be loyal to Daming and His Majesty."

Zhu Youjian nodded:
"Okay, now I will equip you with the most advanced firearms of Ming Dynasty and three iron-clad battleships, you should get familiar with these advanced firearms as soon as possible.

While Zhu Youjian was speaking, he suddenly waved his hand and directly removed all the rewards drawn from the system warehouse from the system warehouse.

Almost at the same time, three iron-clad giant ships suddenly appeared on the sea surface of the nearby port.

Seeing that the emperor suddenly equipped them with such good firearms, Mao Wenlong and his subordinates were surprised, and he hurriedly bowed again to thank him: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Mao Wenlong thanked him, he immediately called three thousand households and asked them to come forward to receive weapons in order.

Thinking that the newly summoned soldiers would definitely not use new weapons, Zhu Youjian said to Qinglong:
"Qinglong, leave a few Jin Yiwei who are proficient in firearms, teach them how to use firearms, and the team will return to the city immediately."

"According to the purpose"

Today's Jinyiwei don't only use Xiuchun Dao, they are very familiar with mine mortars and rifled guns, Qinglong quickly picked out ten people to train Pidao soldiers.

Under the protection of everyone, Zhu Youjian flew back to the castle on his horse.

As soon as he returned to the commander-in-chief's mansion and sat down, he immediately delivered an order:
"Come on, ring the bell."

"Yes"

The two Dongchang fans walked quickly to the big clock in Shuai's mansion, and soon the big clock was struck by them, making a muffled sound.

This is the bell to summon the generals. It was installed just two days ago, and it was equipped by Zhu Youjian for Dingwang Zhu Cijiong.

The meeting had already been held in the morning, and Qi Jiguang and others hurriedly returned to the Shuai Mansion when they heard the bell, which was the newly established Duhu Mansion.

After the generals arrived, they found that the emperor was sitting quietly behind the commander-in-chief, with Qinglong, the commander of Jinyiwei, and Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, standing beside him.

Qi Jiguang and others hastily stepped forward and bowed to salute:

"See Your Majesty."

Zhu Youjian raised his big hand slightly:

"My dear ones, please sit down without courtesy!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor."

Knowing that there must be something wrong with the emperor calling them suddenly, everyone sat there respectfully, waiting for the emperor to speak.

Zhu Youjian scanned the faces of the generals and spoke slowly:
"I have received the battle report. The two armies of the Ming Dynasty have successfully captured Malacca and Ceylon. You are all ready. I have decided to leave Huangming Island and rush to Malacca in two days.

Before leaving Huangming Island, there are still some things to explain. The South China Sea Protectorate Mansion will be handed over to Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong. Knowing that you are short of manpower, I specially prepared an army for you. They are now training outside the city.

After I leave, no matter what happens in Nanhai Province, you must defend Daming, the first overseas territory.

If you encounter something that you can't solve by yourself, you must discuss it with Mao Wenlong. You must not be emotional, and you must ensure the health and stability of Nanhai and Huangming Island. "

Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong hurried forward and bowed to salute:

"Father Xie believes in my son, and I will never let you down. In the near future, the Nanhai Province of Ming Dynasty will replace the Dutch people, and let the spices, pepper, sugar cane, tea and porcelain from Nanhai Province go to thousands of households in the West. .”

Zhu Youjian nodded in satisfaction:
"I hope you can do what you say. In addition, the tax plan here should be formulated as soon as possible. After a while, a group of people will be sent from here to Ceylon to mine mines for Daming.

The plan to immigrate from the Ming Dynasty should also be implemented as soon as possible, so that the Chinese will gradually become the largest ethnic group in Nanhai Province.

The school should also start construction as soon as possible, recruit teachers from the local area, and make the indigenous children here speak Chinese within three years. This is the key to Ming's long-term and stable rule of Nanyang. "

Zhu Cijiong nodded obediently:

"Children obey the will"

After explaining to Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong, Zhu Youjian looked at Zheng Chenggong, the commander of the Ming Navy:

"Zheng Aiqing, before I left Huangming Island, you selected 200 people from the navy and asked them to recruit a group of patriots from the Chinese and join the navy after training."

Zheng Chenggong hurriedly nodded and agreed:

"Minister Zheng Chenggong, obey the order."

……

On the third day, Zhu Youjian left 30 taels of silver to Wang Zhu Cijiong as funds, and then Zhu Youjian and the Ming soldiers boarded the battleship and left Huangming Island.

When Zhu Cijiong and the prince Zhu Cihong came with [-] flattering troops, Zhu Youjian left [-] for the given king, so that Nanhai Province had [-] elite soldiers and three iron-clad warships.

After Zhu Youjian led the army to leave, Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong received a report.

The Ming army discovered a large Dutch shipyard on an island.

Almost all warships and merchant ships of the Netherlands that were active in Asia and Africa were built here.

This discovery made Zhu Cihong overjoyed. Only three armored warships are definitely not enough for the huge South China Sea Province.

Zhu Cijiong immediately ordered the shipyard to start building Galen ships.

Although the Galen ships built by the Dutch cannot be compared with the ironclad warships of the Ming Dynasty, they were still very advanced warships during this period
