vs 672 When the affection arrives, the gift is returned
Hong Xuguan came out of the cardinal's palace, and his mind was full of excitement.
Bingo, hit the jackpot!
Originally, he was already self-pitying for coming to Paris, and when he first came, he was very cold, but he didn't expect that another village would be carefully guided by the predators to teach him how to deal with the Turks!
The Southeast Army went to Egypt on the Red Sea, opened the Canal in Suez, cut the Ottoman Turk into two sections, and cut off the connection between the North African and Asian countries of Turkey.
Ottoman Turki is a big country, a strong country, a country dares to pick all the red-haired countries, and the strength is strong!
To be honest, the Southeast Mansion actually has no bottom in its heart about dealing with it.
It's one thing to plan the staff, it's another thing to really fight.
I didn't expect to get such a point, who is Richelieu, the prime minister of France, a political strongman, the accuracy of his gaze is really not comparable to these turtle staff officers in the southeast mansion, among the officers, Sun Chengzong has vision, but he is not as familiar as the other party.
In fact, France has always supported Austria, Hungary, Serbia and other countries, that is, to put these countries on the front line against Turkey, to avoid being broken through the line by those infidels of God, and to force France to fight against them himself.
Richelieu has a say in how to deal with the Turks.
When he returned to the hotel, he felt that the smell coming from the window was not so strong, and he took advantage of his memory to quickly write down Richelieu's strategy.
Of course, Richelieu is a clear plan, waiting for the southeast province to fight with the Turks, this is also a disaster to the east, as long as the southeast province and the Turks are separated, Europe can be greatly relieved, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and even directly send troops to reap the profits.
Does he have reservations, perhaps, but it is of great help to the Southeast Mansion, and it is a great leap from not being able to find the north to being organized.
"It seems that intelligence gathering on the Turks must be strengthened." Hong Xuguan wrote.
The next day, the Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Martin, came and said that due to the intervention of the Dharma Throne, the friendly trade negotiations between the two sides had been stamped with the king's seal and sent to them!
At the same time, France opened up the "East India Company" to open up trade in Asia, set up embassies and commercial halls, and asked the southeastern government to take more care of them.
On the way back, Hong Xuguan hummed a little tune happily, and Yan Zhang joked to him: "Look at his detergent appearance, everyone still thinks he has done something irresponsible." β
Hong Xuguan proudly patted the document bag and said, "When I wait until Egypt, I can do as many irresponsible things as I want." β
He patted Yan Zhang's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, the brother will make you irresponsible!" β
I couldn't help but laugh wildly.

added to the warship and restarted.
LondonοΌ
In the 17th century, London was not a big city (according to statistics, the population of London in 1600 was 20, and the population in 1700 was 70, and now it should be about 45), and the southeastern province of Rising Sun Harbor, which has not been developed for a long time, has surpassed London in terms of population, which makes Hong Xuguan deeply understand that the strategy of the leader and the Ming Dynasty is right!
Although there were twists and turns, the passage between the southeast province and the Ming Dynasty was basically smooth, and a large number of Ming people outflowed to Southeast Asia, which made Southeast Asia develop rapidly.
And in the city of London, there are many wooden houses, and they are disorganized, so that the visiting officers are deeply disdainful, cut, wooden houses! Our southeast mansion is full of stone and cement buildings.
However, the port of London still aroused the respect of the Chinese officers, who saw at least thirty battleships with two gun decks, and four battleships with three gun decks, with hundreds of guns, for the latter, such a large battleship had not yet appeared in the southeastern province!
Even if they are far away (they can't get closer), the Chinese officers are fascinated by the sight of the mighty battleships with three gun decks, and you must know that the naval officers of the Southeast Army are the most particular about their guys being bigger, harder and thicker than others, and I don't know when our Southeast Fleet will be able to equip this kind of battleship.
"Their artillery is 36 pounds!" Hao Sizhong, who was traveling with him, looked at it with a telescope and said calmly.
"Snow Snow Snow ......" everyone couldn't help but gasp.
The Southeast Mansion is now building a large number of 32-pounder guns, but I didn't expect others to use 36-pounder cannons!
"Those battleships are 74 guns!" Yan Zhang said: "It seems that there is a tendency to target our 72-gun battleships!" β
"It's not that it seems, it's really aimed at our battleships, and I don't want to know who designed them!" Hong Xuguan asserted.
The Leader's Teacher, Phineas Pate!
He is an outstanding British ship-builder, and when he traveled around the world, he helped Yan Changwu make a third-class battleship, Yan Changwu shamelessly boasted that he had completed the design of a third-class battleship, but he did not dare to deny the role of Phineas Pate, well, it was an inspiration.
The second-class battleship that is now berthed in the port of London has an obvious Phineas Pate style, however, he was also influenced by Yan Changwu, the hull is simplified, and the hull does not have an obviously tall big butt (stern) and a large RU room (bow), it is streamlined.
The visiting officers passed through the famous London Bridge, which served as a guard and was later used to imprison the magnates, the current King Charles I, who never dreamed that he would become a prisoner of London Bridge.
Charles I received the officers of the Southeastern Province, and as a sovereign who cared about the naval fleet, he was well acquainted with naval affairs, so the hosts and guests had a good conversation.
In fact, in terms of naval knowledge, he was much better than the kings of Portugal and Spain, and he was very skilled in business, and when the news of his beheading came a few years later, the officials of Hong Xuan felt sorry!
Having visited the king, they went to meet their teacher, Phineas Pate!
Phineas Pate was very famous in London, and when they went to his apartment, they found the door wide open, and the master was busy hammering nails in the courtyard in front of the house, making a model of the ship.
Hong Xuguan stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said in English: "Hello, teacher! β
He had listened to Phineas Pate's class, hence the name.
The master raised his head, his cloudy eyes revealed a brilliant light, recognized who they were, and said in Chinese: "Mud consumption!" β
After so many years, he still knows some Chinese!
Phineas Pate invited them into the hall to sit down, and Hong Xuguan first greeted the master on behalf of Yan Changwu, and handed over Yan Changwu's handwritten letter!
In the letter, Yan Changwu greeted the teacher and briefly talked about the situation in the southeast mansion, hoping to have another opportunity to listen to the teacher's teachings, which is kind words, but very affectionate!
Hong Xiguan sent silk, tea and porcelain with milk candy and wine, which were only one grade lower than those given to the king, and a large number of gifts were quite considerable.
Phineas Pate thanked them for their affection, and remembered him as an old man who had come all the way from afar!
Hong Xuguan said: "In our China, we pay attention to the heaven and earth, and the teacher is still ranked before the relatives, a teacher for one day and a father for life!" β
"Oh!" Phineas Pate said with emotion: "I have been to the Mughal Empire, where people pay attention to this life and the afterlife, and I will go to China to be a teacher in the next life!" β
"Wish I had the privilege of being your student!" Hong Xuguan's mouth is so sweet that it is smeared with sugar!
He said with concern: "Teacher, I passed through the street and saw that the situation seemed to be a little tense!" β
Yes, there is a tense religious conflict in England these days, and the relationship between the king and his subjects is tense, the king leans towards Catholicism, but the subjects are mostly Protestants.
"It's fine!" Phineas Pate waved his hand and said: "Whichever force comes to power, it must use the ship-building designer!" β
"The Lord knows you, but the untouchables don't necessarily know about you!" Hong Xuguan said enthusiastically: "The student has a musket here, it is very useful and powerful, so I will give it to the teacher for self-defense!" β
He sent the rifled flintlock pistol that killed the Spanish nobleman Pardo!
made many officers stare at it, this is Mazu Niangniang's artifact!
Showing how to use the pistol, and firing another shot, the bullet went into the solid oak, and Phineas Pate immediately knew the power of the pistol!
"Very nice pistol!" He entertained guests for dinner and introduced his genius son, Peter Pate, to everyone.
Peter Pate was a rising star in shipbuilding, and Phineas Pate gradually retired, and his class was taken over by Peter Pate.
Naturally, Hong Xuguan complimented him and called him a brother!
Peter Pate is talented and arrogant, but fortunately, Officer Hong has the rank of rear admiral, plus his age, and he knows the strength of the Southeast Mansion, he is not a second-rate French rear admiral! So Hong Xiguan got Peter Pate's blue eyes.
After the meal, Peter Pate offered to offer: "Father, let's give them that gift!" β
So, Phineas Pate gave the guests a gift that made their hearts skip a beat!
An all-real wooden model of the battleship "Sea Sovereign" with three gun decks!
