Three hundred and ninetieth chapters ocean terminal
A dense flow of people was shuttled on the dock near the East Fort in Wusongkou. Liu Yi did not get very close, but stood a little far away and used a thousand-mile mirror to check the situation of the dock. At this moment, the dock was crowded with people, and a large number of civilians were working on the dock. It seemed that more than half of it was built. Even if it could not be completed by the end of the month, it could basically be put into use. In fact, the dock was only one of them. Liu Yi's real intention was to set up an ocean shipyard at the dock. Because the depth and width of the Yangtze River determine that large sea ships cannot be taken in the Yangtze River. This is not important. What is important is that since the Qingyi Army wants to establish an ocean navy, it must have large warships. The entire Anqingwei does not have good hydrological conditions, so a shipyard specifically used to produce ocean warships in places like Wusongkou. That is, a place that produces foreign ships similar to Zheng Zhilong Navy.
Now the production and maintenance of Zheng Zhilong's foreign ships are distributed in Taiwan and Kyushu, Japan. With the continuous cooperation of the Qingyi Army and the Zheng Zhilong naval army, Zheng Zhilong also obtained many good individual arms. Zheng Zhilong's artillery is good. With the Qingyi Army's individual weapons, although the army's strictness, discipline and other aspects are far inferior to the Qingyi Army, the huge improvement in equipment has greatly improved the level of land warfare. At least when competing for the fortress with the Dutch, Zheng Zhilong's musket team can already form medium- and close suppression on the Dutch, and then let the light infantry enter the city to open a breakthrough. The Dutch could not resist Zheng Zhilong's offensive. Originally, Zheng Zhilong's artillery was comparable to the Dutch's artillery, and Zheng Zhilong often had an overwhelming advantage in numbers during close combat, but the only shortcoming was the medium-range and close combat soldiers.
You have to rush to the enemy before you can start hand-to-hand combat. Because the Japanese iron cannon is not the opponent of the new Dutch musket, Zheng Zhilong is often suppressed and killed and injured in the middle distance. Many soldiers and horses who participated in the war collapsed before they even approached the Dutch fortress. After obtaining the Type 26 musket, this situation changed. Basically, every city must be put in. However, in just a few months, Zheng Zhilong formally unified Taiwan Island, and the Dutch fortresses on the coast were all removed. The entire Taiwan has been under the strict control of Zheng Zhilong, but there are still many indigenous people in the central mountainous areas. Zheng Zhilong has not yet taken care of those who have become out of the way. The advantage that Liu Yi got is that Zheng Zhilong exchanged and rented many shipbuilding craftsmen to Liu Yi, which is Liu Yi's current scarce resource. They can build bird ships, and the volume structure and construction difficulty of foreign ships are far from comparable to bird ships.
This is like aircraft carriers and destroyers in later generations. They are not of the same order of magnitude at all. Therefore, Liu Yi could only exchange a group of Zheng Zhilong's master craftsmen through arms, and organized a large number of craftsmen from the General Administration of Manufacturing and craftsmen from Zhongxuzhou Wharf to Wusongkou Shipyard. Follow these master craftsmen to learn the skills of building foreign ships. Liu Yi's lease period was two years. This group of Zheng Zhilong's craftsmen will stay in Wusongkou Shipyard for two years. Liu Yi gave them the best treatment, each person costs ten taels of silver per month, which is higher than the monthly salary offered by Zheng Zhilong.
Five times, more than the sixth and seventh rank officials of the Ming Dynasty. They are naturally very enthusiastic. Liu Yi only has one requirement, and everyone must bring out two high disciples within two years. This is a major plan for sustainable development. Liu Yi believes in doing everything by himself, so all military industry must have their own talents to cultivate. They can only be used for a while with the assistance of outsiders, but not for a lifetime. Zheng Zhilong obviously did not realize this. Of course, he would not spread the production technology of the Type 28 musket.
According to Liu Yi's vision, when the dock was equipped with the ability to use it at the end of April, the entire Jin army's navy was immediately stationed in Wusongkou and prepared for war. He went to the island in mid-May. According to the current configuration of the navy, there were 3,000 sailors, 50 bird boats, 3,000 naval marines, and 3000 naval marines, plus 3000 people, so many people sent to carry a large amount of heavy equipment to attack a small island of Danluo. But yes, Liu Yi wanted to use a bullock knife to maximize the specific law of Lanches, and it was best to take down Danluo Island with zero casualties. However, the navy must replace the battle flag of the Qingyi Army and all flags that can show the identity of the Ming Dynasty. In addition, the armor of the Ming Dynasty cannot be used. This is relatively simple. Zheng Zhilong has many broken copper and iron. The Qingyi Army only needs to wear the inner liner and cover the various armors on the outside. Anyway,
No one can see it from the outside. If everything goes well in mid-May, then you can reach Danluo Island in early June. According to the combat effectiveness of the Qingyi Army, it is not a problem to occupy the entire island within three days. Then the entire army immediately rested and prepared the next plan to attack Jiuzhou. Zhongxuzhou Wharf would make full use of bird ships, and then let the Danluo naval and marines send some troops back to drive the new bird ship to transport heavy equipment and some army set out from Wusongkou Wharf to attack Jiuzhou Island. According to the agreement reached with Zheng Zhilong, the Qingyi Army did not choose Hirado as a breakthrough. Instead, it set out from Danluo Island and Wusongkou at the same time, and attacked Kagoshima and Fukuoka from the north and south. The Marines of the North Route Army had some naval troops and the entire instructor's troops. Wu Dongming personally led the team and made a concerted effort. More than 10,000 troops and horses from both sides pushed Jiuzhou Island.
Liu Yi looked at the busy crowd on the dock, his chest was fluctuating violently. This feeling had never been so strong. Before he traveled through time, the Republic still did not break through the blockade of the first island chain. Japan, South Korea and Taiwan became the bridgehead for the blockade of the Republic of Militaria. Now, Liu Yi's army is ready to go. They have the ability to open a breakthrough on the first island chain. Whether it can succeed can be proved with the sky full of cannonballs and guns.
"General, Shen Quan, the supervisor of the dock, is here." Gengzi, who went to the dock to report, came back. When he told the news that Liu Yi, the manager of the dock, had arrived, the leader Shen Quan immediately followed Gengzi to meet Liu Yi in a hurry. Shen Quan was the account manager under Ruan Hui when he was in power, which was equivalent to the current head of the finance department. He was a good at accounting and was very careful in doing things. After Ruan Xing took over the position of president, he promoted Shen Quan to a large account, which was equivalent to the financial director of a large company in the future. This time Liu Yi and Ruan Xing proposed to Ruan Xing.
After the plan to build the Wusongkou Wharf, the selection of supervisors became a problem. In order to keep a low profile, Liu Yi only sent low-level officers and soldiers from the Qingyi Army to wear civilian clothes to help build the wharf and protect the safety of the wharf. On the surface, the wharf was under the banner of the Huishang Federation, including the Wusongkou Shipyard. Therefore, the supervisor was appointed by Ruan Xing. For such a large project, the funds, materials and labor were all astronomical, so after thinking about it, he could only transfer Shen Quan, who is currently monitoring the accounts of Huishang Bank, and temporarily serve as supervisor.
