1825 My New Daming

Chapter 62 The Ming Navy, No. [-] in the sky! (Seek collection, monthly pass, recommendation, follow-up)

Because according to the standards of "Old Masters", a wife like Natalie who is so busy taking concubines for her husband is definitely a good wife among good wives!Although this virtuous wife herself likes to cuddle with concubines, it is harmless.

So Zhuge Weidao, who had figured it out, smiled and told Natalie and the others to go home early after watching the movie.

After finishing the order, he went home to meet the guests by himself.When I arrived at the door, I saw Yu De, the housekeeper, standing there.Yu De also saw Zhuge Weidao, so he hurried up to greet him, clasped his fists at Zhuge Weidao, and said, "Dong Weng, here are some of your friends from the navy, including Ambassador Yu's brother Cong, who is named Yin Yang. Zong Guang, he is a staff officer of the Navy Staff Department, with the rank of major, in his 30s, tall and thin, like a bamboo pole.

There is also Zheng Shenshan's (Zheng Guoxian) wife's brother Ye Wencheng. His single name is Wu. He is the son of the wealthy Ye family in Fuzhou. You can tell the faces of southern Fujian at a glance.

There is also Ma Xuchen, who is famous in the world. He is also a lieutenant commander. Although he is a commoner, his family is rich. He is a good friend of the Naval Staff College with you. fat man.

There is also Li Yuan of Li Jinwang's family, who is taboo. He is also a lieutenant commander of the navy, a playboy, he looks like a dog, he is good at Taoism, and he has a Taoist name called Zhu Lingzi
There is also Ling Zongjun, who also lives in the world with characters. He is your classmate in the Naval Academy, and he is also a commoner. He is also a captain now. "

The reason why the head steward introduced it so carefully was of course because of Zhuge Weidao's instructions.Zhuge Weidao didn't want people to know that his "amnesia" was going to heal. He had to give people the illusion that he had basically recovered, so that his career would not be affected.

After listening to Yu De's introduction, Zhuge Weidao frowned, "Are they here to make meritorious service in the Dajin Kingdom?"

"That's right," Yu De said with a smile, "They don't know where they heard that you are going to be the chief adviser of the Dajin Kingdom Navy, so they just want to follow. It's a rare opportunity!"

Well done, well-informed people!
Zhuge Daoxin said: "I just agreed to those old military advisers this morning, and they came to the door at night. Needless to say, I know that it must be arranged by those old military advisers. It seems that I have to take them with me."

Thinking of this, he smiled and said to De: "I see. Xiaoqian, do you want to go through this? It's a rare opportunity!"

"Me?" When Yu De heard this, his heart was agitated. Of course, he wanted to find a family background by following Zhuge, "But I'm not a navy!"

Zhuge Wei said with a smile: "It's okay, I can arrange a temporary job for you at the embassy. By the way, what did you study in college?"

"screenwriter."

Zhuge Weidao nodded, and said with a smile: "Good job, screenwriter. The Dajin Kingdom is cultivating immortals with rifles and cannons on their shoulders. It's more lively than the stage performances. We need talents like you!"

Yu De laughed and said: "To tell the truth, Dong Weng, I also know a thing or two about divination, fortune-telling and fortune-telling."

"That's great!" Zhuge Wei said with a smile, "I'll tell you later that you are my father's disciple, and you have won the true inheritance of my Zhuge family's magic."

"Don't dare, dare not, don't dare to talk nonsense."

"Don't be afraid, just act as a play!"

While talking, Zhuge Weidao gave Yu De a hand, and the two of them entered the house together, and then walked quickly to the lobby.The inside of the lobby was brightly lit, and an electric fan hanging on the roof was spinning whirringly, sending gusts of cool breeze to the people sitting at the banquet below.

The banquet was almost finished, and the seven people sitting at the banquet were chatting. They were all wearing navy white shirts (the robes were taken off of course), and when they saw Zhuge Weidao coming in, they all stood up and greeted him.

Zhuge Weidao glanced at them. Fortunately, they all knew each other.In addition to Yu Yang, Li Kezhi, Ling Zongjun, Ye Wu, and Ma Xuchen that Yu De had just mentioned to him, it was Guo Xiaobao and Wang Wen.

Zhuge didn't need to be introduced (all are acquaintances), he came forward with a smile, bowed his hands and saluted with these people one by one, and then joined the group of friends from the navy, and Yu De asked someone to fetch the deputy. He also poured Zhuge Weidao a glass of "Old Beijing Rice Wine" and asked him to chat with those "old friends I just met" while drinking.

"Brother Daozi, you've been very useful this time. Those old military advisers in your family must value Brother Daozi very much, right?"

"That's right, if you finish this errand in Dajin Kingdom, you will be listed in the army division sooner or later, right?"

"Brother Daozi, this hero has three gangs, you have to bring us this time."

"Brother Daozi, as far as I know, Dajin does not have a real coastline. Even if there is a Caspian Sea, it is not a real sea, but a saltwater lake surrounded by continents, and marching to India does not need to go through the Caspian Sea. Where is it again?"

Yu Hui's brother Yu Yang seems to be a person who thinks a little too much. Others are happily waiting to make meritorious deeds, but he thinks that there is no sea in Dajin.

Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "Zong Guang, Dajin doesn't have seas, but the Ming navy doesn't only have seas either!"

Yu Yang frowned: "Brother Daozi, are you talking about the marines?"

"Of course not," Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "I am the Ming Navy, number two in the sea and number one in the sky!"

"Number one in the sky?" Yu Yang's eyes lit up, "Airship!"

It turned out that before Zhuge Weidao, the "flying military division", was in place, Daming already had aviation power.However, this aviation force is not composed of airplanes, spaceships, or rockets, but airships.

I don't know if it's because Daming's industry is strong and its financial resources are strong enough to support its full investment in armaments. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty's Navy Ministry spent a lot of money on the airship project.From soft airships to hard airships, piston engines for airships, bombs and bomb delivery devices for airships, machine guns for airships, and even safe and reliable helium airships were also smashed.

In addition to being willing to spend money on research and development, the Ministry of the Navy also spent huge sums of money to purchase hundreds of hard airships, and equipped each of the three major fleets of Nanyang, Beiyang, and Dongyang with a "reconnaissance and strike integrated airship team".

However, the British did not seem to follow up. They did not equip a large number of airships for the Royal Navy.If the airship team of the Ming Navy can perform well in the "Daoguang Printing" battle, perhaps the British Empire will realize its own shortcomings and start to equip a large number of airships. In this way, the Ming Navy Air Force will be able to use machine guns to fight airships in the future!
Zhuge Weidao smiled and said to those in front of him: "Do any of you know about airships?"

The ruthless Ling Zongjun smiled and said: "I understand, I was the captain of the airship in the airship brigade of the Nanyang Fleet."

Ye Wu also said: "I have worked in the airship field for a few months and managed the ground handling of the airship."

Well, one is heavenly, one is underground, matching!
Ma Xuchen shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Daozi, I have never been in the airship team, nor have I ever been on an airship airship, but I have a hot air balloon at home, and I am very good at it."

"Okay!" Zhuge Weidao tapped the table lightly with his fingers, "I will draw up a report later, requesting the Ministry of the Navy to send a few airships to support Jin Guo, and I will hand over these airships and supporting ground services to you." command!"

"okay!"

"Daozi, just look at it!"

"right"

All three of them patted their chests and agreed confidently.

Zhuge Weidao then said to Yu Yang and Li Kezhi: "Zongguang, Zhu Lingzi, now our navy in the sky can help Daoguang! Both of you are majors. Later, I will arrange for you a deputy head and chief of the naval advisory group." Let's do meritorious service together for the position of consultant!"
