Chapter 101: Two Things
Sailor configuration, this is too easy for Chen Mu.
There is a ready-made example of Nanyangwei, a province has three standing mixed fleets, each fleet has three groups of ships, each group contains one of four 500 shark ships, four 400 400 shark ships, four 400 grain ships, and 12 200 shark ships.
The remaining maritime army is commanded by the chief officer in the center, and is ready to support at any time at the maritime junction.
In this way, the navy of a province has 36 500 shark ships, 72 400 shark ships, and 108 200 shark ships, which are enough to deal with the intensifying maritime conflict.
Chen Mu's handbook went up, and the high arch looked big.
In the past, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang knew how to bombard the Japanese with artillery when they patrolled the coastal waters, but there was no way, the Fu boat couldn't hold the cannon, and Qi Shuai had always been a Fu boat crane and a small boat overseas, so he had to take the artillery to bombard.
It's not that others don't know that the artillery is stained, but no one really has the opportunity for Chen Mu to build a new ship with artillery under the guise of building a shipyard.
There is no one in the world who trusts Chen Mu more than Gao Gong, because everything Chen Mu does has a very clear goal, and these actions are clear in Gao Gong's eyes.
Even the image of General Chen appears rounded in the cabinet.
No one who is bored in doing things has no desires, so once this kind of person shows no desires, it is the most terrible. It's like Gao Gong knew what Zhang Juzheng was seeking, so he was like-minded, because he felt that there was no threat.
At the end of July, under the leadership of Gao Gong, the cabinet approved the plan for the formation of a new-style naval fleet in the coastal areas of Liangguang, Fujian, and Zhejiang, and ordered Zhang Han, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing, and Bai Yuanjie, the commander of Nanyangwei, to reconsider the matter of transferring the idle Guangchuan Fuchuan to Tianjin and Nanjing to the north.
Gao Ge Lao was still reluctant.
It is not very difficult for a province to assemble a huge fleet of more than 200 ships, but the difficulty is that each province will make expenditures at the same time, and the pressure will be great. What's more, in addition to ships and cannons, the reason for Chen Mushui's high combat power is that it is armed with artillery that is difficult for others to reach.
Chen Mu wants to have more than 200 warships from Guangdong to the coastal provinces of Liaodong because of the unwarranted 'Fanyi comeback' in his words, not the kind of small clippers in the past, but the shark ships he built in Nanyangwei, how easy is it?
Although the Little Shark ship is claimed to be 200 materials, the actual wood used is 2780 materials, the man-hours are nearly twice as much as the past 200 materials of the clippers, and more than 600 large and small warships are built at the same time on the southern coast.
General Zhenshuo, who is far away in Xuanfu, doesn't think so, why?
"You said that this old man is high, does the court lack this bit of silver?" Chen Mu was full of complaints, the lecture hall was almost completed, and he was also a little leisurely, sitting and discussing with Deng Zilong, Hu Daxiong and others in the mansion, taking out the palace newspaper and circulating it to everyone, and said: "Why write in the palace newspaper that the shipbuilding budget for the three provinces is 180,000 taels of silver, which will be supported by Guangdong?" β
This has been written very obscurely, and it is impossible for Gao Gong to say that he has no name and no point, so he asked Nanyang Wei Xiaoxiaowei to take out the silver taels needed for shipbuilding in the three provinces, after all, there are many people who don't know about things, how can a mere one Wei get 180,000 taels.
But where did Yin Zhengmao, the governor of Liangguang, get these 180,000 taels, and Liangguang went to conquer Wei Yinbao, and the local military expenses were beyond their means, and they still needed to allocate a little from the province.
"What does the general mean is that the 180,000 taels of Guangdong can't afford it?"
Hu Liangpeng didn't understand and asked, "Then who is out?" β
Chen Mu pursed his mouth, raised his thumb, pointed at himself, and said: "Who else, Gao Ge Lao's performance is for Chen to see, this silver Nanyang Wei is out, someone is coming...... Chang Ji, write a letter to Bai Jingchen, the commander of Nanyang Guard, and work hard for two or three years to return to ...... Fuck. β
Following the twists and turns of the imperial court's letter to the south, the letter spread faster than usual, and the merchant who went to northern Xinjiang to deliver the pot to General Chen had not yet arrived in Fujian, and the letter had been transmitted back to Nanyang.
Li Dan also came back not long ago, but this time when he came back, he became a busy man in Guangzhou Mansion.
There is no place in Guangzhou that is absolutely secret, and there is only one place to say confidentiality.
"Drop the anchor, everyone let the boat down. All go down, and there are people within a radius of the small cannon on the shelf, and someone is close to killing, not to mention Brother Chen, please. β
Ten miles away from Nanyang Weigang, on the general shark boat belonging to General Zhenshuo of Northern Xinjiang, the deputy chief soldier Chen Lan was taken to the sea by Bai Yuanjie in a daze, looking at Li Dan who came out of the cabin, he was even more confused, and asked: "What happened to Jingchen, you want to bring Chen here?" β
"Dan'er, you can say it."
Bai Yuanjie's face seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, sighed and beckoned Chen Lan to sit down, and gestured to Li Dan on the side. Chen Lan knew Li Dan, and this Li Ye, who relied on the identity of the righteous son of General Zhenshuo to cross the sea, sent him many things.
"Yes, Uncle Bai. Uncle Chen, who went north this spring, brought back a message for his father-in-law when he returned. β
Although Bai Yuanjie and Chen Lan are not much older than Li Dan, Li Dan all followed Chen Mu's call, Chen Mu called them brothers, and Li Dan called them uncles. After the deacon's nephew gave up his seat, he said: "My father-in-law is not far from coming back, but I need the help of two uncles." β
"Erlang is coming back!"
Chen Lan was overjoyed with this news, Chen Mu was a general of Zhenshuo in the north, and if he was transferred back to the south in the future and served as the chief military officer of Guangdong, he would be reduced by half a level.
Needless to say, having a brother-in-law who is a great general means to them military attachΓ©s, especially when this great general is friendly with many important officials in the DPRK and China, it is easy for them to do anything in the south.
"Nephew, what do you want us to do?"
"My father-in-law said two things, I want the two uncles to train as many sergeants as possible, whether it is the flag army or the battalion soldiers, the soldiers of the entire Guangdong must be trained."
There is no suspense about this matter, Bai Yuanjie is directly in charge of training troops in Tuntian, and the training of all guards in Guangdong is his job, and Chen Ling can train all the battalions along the coast, which is basically more than half of Guangdong's troops.
What's more, who wants to let Nanyang Wei specialize in the United States, the impact of Guangdong's military reform Chen Mu is greater than anyone imagined.
Chen Lan nodded, he knew that what Li Dan didn't say was the most difficult, "What's the second thing?" β
"The Yiren who occupied Luzon had long intended to attack our Ming Dynasty, and my father-in-law wanted to ask the two to lure him to attack Guangdong first, so as to transfer the father-in-law to return to Guangzhou and go to Nanyang for the imperial court...... There are boats. β
The small boat carrying the messenger came by Bai Yuanjie's banner army, and after reporting from afar, he said loudly: "General, the message from General Zhenshuo in the north to the general is here with the message sent by the imperial court from Liangguang!" β
