Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 1119 Technology Development Planning
Chapter 1131 Technology Development Planning
To say that the fight was Yamato's shameless self-whitewashing of them. In fact, until now, the warships of Wei State have not lost a single hair.However, the Yamato Allied Forces lost a total of more than 600 ships, more than nearly [-]% of the losses. It is strange that the Yamato Kingdom does not feel pain.

"Gu is really not reconciled!" Qu Laizhen said angrily: "This battle is too suffocating, our Yamato Kingdom must learn from Wei State in the future, learn from their building such huge ships and this kind of national collapse! "

"Go to battle, go to Namba!" Goku Hobetsu ordered.

It's just that it's too late to think about retreating at this time. The warships of Wei State have already started to adjust their sailing. When Tang Mao sensed that the Yamato coalition forces had the intention to retreat, Tang Mao immediately ordered the 24th fleet to start with six flying fish warships, and the twelve ships would be the first to be promoted. On the left and right wings, attack the warships of the Yamato Allied Forces in the formation of land battle geese.

Coincidentally, during the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Naval War of Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], the Beiyang Navy led by Dingyuan and Zhenyuan and formed a sea battle geese formation to attack the Japanese navy.However, the Japanese army launched a crescent formation and faced the Beiyang Navy on the side.In the era dominated by naval guns, the bow guns never had enough guns on the side.Therefore, the Beiyang Navy was partially disadvantaged by the Japanese Navy, and the artillery won the battle with more artillery.

In this Bungo naval battle, the Wei State Navy first met the warships of the Yamato Allied Forces on the side of the battleships of the Yanyue Formation, and after repelling the attack of the warships of the Yamato Allied Forces, they began to pursue them in the shape of geese.The same tactics have created completely different results.

Relying on the characteristics of fast speed and fierce firepower, the Wei warship has always maintained limited contact with the enemy, and specially used artillery to name the warships of the Yamato Allied Forces.

"Haha! Another ship was sunk! Keep up the good work, brothers! Send all those foreign devils to the bottom of the sea!" Inside the bridge of the flagship of the 24th Squadron, Tang Mao had a smile on his face.Watching the battleships of the Yamato Alliance Navy being hit one after another, those Yamato sailors jumped into the sea like dumplings. This scene is really wonderful!
Whether it is in a land battle or a naval battle, in fact, when the naval guns are bombarded, the losses of both sides will not be too great, and the key victory is still in the pursuit.An hour later, the sun shyly set, and the Yamato coalition forces had already suffered heavy losses. At least five hundred ships were buried on the bottom of the sea, and the five or six thousand Yamato warriors on board the ships also became the Sea Dragon King together with the sailors. son-in-law.

It has been 20 days since Ran Ming received the battle report from Dongying in the Imperial Palace of Ye City in the State of Wei. After seeing the battle report from Dongying, Ran Ming was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.Ran Ming was more serious about the layout of Dongpu than anyone else.In Ran Ming's plan, he supported the Xingmatai Kingdom, and took advantage of the annihilation of the Gonu Kingdom's entire army, allowing the Xingmatai Kingdom to replace the Yamato Kingdom and become the co-lord of Dongying under the prestige of victory.Then use Yamato to check and balance Xingmatai, and Ran Ming can coerce Wa to make Dongying.However, what a good game of chess was ruined by Zu Yan and Jiang Xie.

It is an indisputable fact that the dog slave country exists in name only, and the rise of the Xingmatai country, but Jiang Xie and Tang Mao, the two careless people, fought so hard that they didn't hold back and wiped out the allied forces of the Yamato and Izumo countries. The loss of more than 4 horses is no longer a traumatic injury to Yamato, but a situation of subjugation and extinction.Now it's all right, it's hard for the Xingmatai country not to dominate the four islands of Dongying.Even if the Yamato Kingdom does not want to withdraw from the position of the co-lord of Japan, it has no strength to compete with the Xingmatai Kingdom.

Because of this unexpected victory, Wei Guo had to re-arrange for Dongpu, which required a lot of energy and time.Now Ran Ming really wants to call Zu Yan and Jiang Xie to Yecheng. Ran Ming really wants to split their heads open to see if there is any paste inside. The two are direct participants in the strategic plan of the General Staff from the beginning to the end. , how could there be such a low-level error?
However, Ran Ming's mood was quickly suppressed.Because Wang Ding came back, he not only brought back the seeds that Ran Ming needed, but also overfulfilled the task of exploring the Americas, and connected with the native Americans.Because of Wang Ding's arrival, the unhappiness in Ran Ming's heart was swept away, and even Ran Ming's thought of splitting the heads of Zu Yan and Jiang Xie disappeared.

Not only did Wang Ding come back with American specialty crops, but he also brought 39 representatives from 180 tribes including Aztec, Yinfubu, and Colatpan to Wei State safely.The biggest harvest of this expedition is not the high-yielding potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn seeds, nor the surrender of the 39th Department of the Americas, but Wang Ding's accidental discovery of the ocean current in the Pacific Ocean, which can go directly to the sea off the state. A very safe route to America.

Wang Ding exhausted all his efforts, lost three or four hundred skilled sailors and a large amount of goods, and took more than a year to reach America.But when he came back, because he discovered this energy-saving ocean current, Wang Ding arrived in Wei State in just over three months.If it wasn't for wasting more than a month in the Eastern Pacific Basin, I'm afraid this voyage time would be shortened even more.

When Wang Ding landed at the port of Qu County, Wang Ding was also intimidated by the prosperity of Qu County.If Wang Ding knew that Qu County was the famous Lianyungang in later generations, perhaps he would not be surprised.Today, people may hear the name Quxian very unfamiliar. In fact, it is the name of an ancient county in China. It was established in the Qin Dynasty and belonged to Donghai County (Tancheng), the 36 counties in the Qin Dynasty.Although there have been many changes in the affiliation of Qu County in the past dynasties, Qu County is a poor county known far and wide.The entire county has a population of less than [-] households and belongs to Xia County.During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the ownership of Qu County also changed many times. It first belonged to the Xiongnu Han State, then to the Later Zhao Dynasty, and then was surrendered to the Jin Dynasty by Zhou Cheng, the governor of Xuzhou in the Ranwei Dynasty, and Quanzhou.

"Brother Meng, is this really Qu County?" Wang Ding asked unnaturally.Qu County is near the sea, and Wang Ding also made a short stop at the port of Qu County before to replenish fresh water.Qu County left a deep impression on Wang Ding.The county seat of Quxian County was built during the period of Sima Yue, king of the East China Sea, who was a powerful official in the Western Jin Dynasty and a participant in the Eight Kings Rebellion.After all, Donghai Kingdom is the fiefdom of Sima Yue, so in the second year of Yongjia (308 A.D.), Sima Yue won the Eight Kings Rebellion and controlled Jinhuai Emperor Sima Chi as a puppet.The powerful Sima Yue suspected that the courtiers had betrayed him, so he moved the capital of the country from Luoyang to Juancheng (now Shandong Juancheng) with Emperor Huai Sima Chi.Sima Yue recruited 93 peasants to build the county seat of Qu County.At that time, the city wall of the county seat was three feet three feet high and one foot six feet wide, which was [-] steps in sixteen miles.

However, the fate of Qu County is like the rise and fall of the Western Jin Dynasty. After the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, the rise of the Huns and the Han Dynasty, and the rise of the Zhao Dynasty, even if the Wei State regained control of Qu County, the entire county was not built due to the lack of people.This kind of city wall has been destroyed by three wars, plus more than 60 years of wind and rain. Unfortunately, the city wall that was once as high as three feet and three feet was only less than one foot, and many places collapsed. Not to mention defending against enemy attacks, even wild animals are Can't help it.

What shocked Wang Ding the most at this time was the port in Qu County. At this time, the port made of reinforced concrete was crowded with people. There were as many as 4 or [-] craftsmen working in the port.If merchants and gentry were included, the population of Qu County would have already exceeded [-]. In less than two years, the population of Qu County had actually increased by more than [-] times.What is even more shocking is the port of Quxian County. Originally, it could only rely on ships under ten thousand stones. At this time, there are as many as a hundred clipper ships in the port, and there are countless other small ships. The shadows of the sails overlap, almost without end.

After finally boarding the pier, we headed towards the county town along the straight concrete road.Even Wang Ding was shocked, not to mention the accompanying Native American representatives.Although the three representatives of the 180 are the ones with the most experience and the most knowledge among the 39 Americas, their vision is limited after all.Seeing the first port of heaven, I was so shocked that I didn't even close my mouth.

However, during the three-month voyage, Ye Wuji's greatest contribution was to teach these American representatives Chinese.Even the dumbest indigenous representatives learned a few simple words, such as eat and drink, hello and so on.Ye Wuji took great pains to teach these indigenous Chinese.They don't speak Chinese, and they don't give them food or water. In such an environment, the Chinese proficiency of the Native American representatives has improved by leaps and bounds.

Hester, the leader of the Yinfubu tribe.Ke looked at the concrete pavement, disregarded the advice of the entourage, immediately squatted down, and used the dagger Wang Ding gave him to carve on the concrete floor. "Too thirsty for fish!"

Although the Yin Fubu people claim to be descendants of the Yin and Shang dynasties, in fact their language is very different from Chinese. In fact, even the Chinese language has gone through thousands of years of vicissitudes, and the shape, meaning and pronunciation of the characters have undergone great changes.

The High Priest of the Feathered Serpent God of the Aztec Empire muttered: "It is such a waste of such huge stones not to build temples but to pave roads!"

In the eyes of the High Priest of the Feathered Serpent God, all precious materials should be used to build temples, not for production and life. I am afraid this is the common mentality and values ​​​​of all priests.

The Feathered Serpent High Priest of the Aztec Empire basically learned to speak Chinese in just over half a year since he came into contact with Chinese, but he didn’t know Chinese characters.Just listening to his words and looking at his appearance, he thought he was a farmer somewhere.There is no way, the climate of the Aztec Empire is humid and hot, and the skin color of all people is slightly darker than that of the Han people in the Central Plains. However, this subtle difference is also very obvious in the territory of Wei State.

A group of people entered the county seat of Qu County under the guard of the army. Not only did Wang Ding not see the city wall, but even the traces of the old county town were gone. There were reinforced concrete buildings everywhere. I thought I entered a small town in the south of the Yangtze River.Chinese traditional buildings are actually mainly made of wood. However, Wei Guo used all the precious wood to build ships, lay railways, and make furniture. is imported.Even for the least valuable timber overseas, the huge transportation alone is already very scary.So gradually Wei Guo has changed the original habits and traditions.

The advantages of using reinforced concrete to build houses are very obvious. First of all, it is durable. The annual maintenance cost of wooden houses is not low. Especially the roof beams and supporting structures need to use a lot of medicines to prevent insects and ants, and the effect of cold protection is very poor. .Even more dangerous, fires are easy to spot.If you are not careful, the whole city may be engulfed in flames.But there is no need to worry about reinforced concrete buildings.

China is known as the empire of foodies. The most valuable things are not airplanes and cannons, but all kinds of delicacies. After the members of the American delegation entered Qu County, the court of Wei State came forward to entertain the members of the American delegation.Although Ran Ming seemed to be very stingy in entertaining, extravagance and waste were expressly prohibited, so the court's greeting to the American delegation was still Wei's signature dish of four dishes and one soup for more than ten years.These American representatives have never seen the world at all. When they ate the canned food that the expedition team ate until they vomited on the sea, they felt that this was the most delicious food in the world. But when they ate braised pork, sweet and sour fish and When frying fungus, I can't wait to swallow my tongue into my stomach.

After a night's rest, Wang Ding and the American delegation began to separate. There was no way.The potatoes and sweet potato seeds carried by Wang Ding have already begun to germinate.Wang Ding will definitely not be able to accompany the American representatives to see the scenery along the way in Wei State. He needs to go to Yecheng to report on his duties with the royal guards.

The climate in May is getting hotter day by day, the crops in the fields are trying their best to grow wildly during this period, and there are many birds inhabiting the forest.The bright sunshine shone on people, making people feel a little lazy, and even want to lie down and have a good sleep.Ran Ming didn't feel sleepy at all. To be honest, exploring America was actually a casual game of Ran Ming's dead horse treating him as a living horse doctor.The population of Wei is too small, and the territory is large enough. Even without the high-yield crop seeds in America, Wei can still create a century of prosperity.

In fact, Ran Ming himself did not have much confidence that Wang Ding could reach America safely and complete the task he had given him.After all, in this era, ocean-going voyages meant risks. Even on the mature routes of Wei State, there were not a few navigation accidents every year, and at least hundreds of people would die in the sea.However, the wealth that can be obtained from the ocean has confused people's reason. Even if hundreds of thousands of people die, even if it is a storm, they can be wiped out at any time. The civilians are still like moths throwing themselves into the flames, going forward and dying.

The news of Wang Ding's arrival also caused great disturbance in the Wei court.The bottleneck of the development of Wei State has become very prominent, and it has become more and more acute, that is, the population of Wei State is too small, and all development is inseparable from the population.Although Wei Guo has already started the germination of the first industrial revolution, in fact, even in the period of the third and fourth industrial revolutions, machines still cannot replace human beings.The court chiefs proposed more than once to increase the rewards for innovative technologies, and even increased the special bonuses to 4000 million yuan.This is not an income, but an annual income, which means that only by relying on inventions and creations, one can live a wealthy life like Duke Wei.
