When Mu Linfeng heard Wang Zhizhen say this, his heart moved and immediately led Wang Zhizhen out of Zhu Ma's bedroom. Zhu Ma looked at Mu Linfeng's back in a daze, his eyes were blurred, and he seemed to have fantasized again. If he really liked him,
What should I do? If he marry me, will Xiaolang be destroyed? Is he liked me because of me? Or is it because of me?
While walking towards Wenyuan Pavilion, Mu Linfeng and Wang Zhizhen listened to Wang Zhizhen's brief introduction to the situation on Ryukyu Island, Zheng Zhilong had some idea of how he established his own overseas army in Ryukyu, which echoed Java, which was also ruled by the Dutch.
A coup was launched in Ryukyu and Java. The situation in Java is not known yet, but Ryukyu has changed drastically. Zheng Zhilong's power extends from the South Island to the North Island, and the Philippines seems to have become Zheng Zhilong's overseas base...
Mu Linfeng listened to Wang Zhizhen's words and pondered. Yang Wan had told him before that Feng Ren'ao fled to Nanyang from Japan, and might have gone to Java. If the news is accurate, Zheng Zhilong's action will definitely be
It has something to do with Feng Ren'ao. If I guess it is right, it must be Feng Ren'ao who went to Nanyang to contact some forces. He may not be fixed in Java, but also contacted Zheng Zhilong. Therefore, this time the Ryukyu Island incident must be with Feng.
Ren'ao cannot escape, but what is he for? He is purely helping Zheng Zhilong seize the Ryukyu Island?
Seeing that Mu Linfeng didn't say anything, Wang Zhizhen was thinking all the way, so he stopped talking. He went to the Wenyuan Pavilion meeting hall. Mu Linfeng saw that many ministers were here. Mu Linfeng signaled the ministers to sit down.
Then he asked Wang Zhizhen: "What is the battle situation over there now? Is the Dutch collapsed?"
Wang Zhizhen shook his head and immediately said to Mu Linfeng: "No, now the Dutch and Zheng Zhilong are facing each other in the north and south of Ryukyu... A few days ago, the Dutch sent someone to contact us in the Fujian Navy and asked our Navy to send troops to Ryukyu to assist...
…”
When Wang Zhizhen said this, the officials in the conference hall began to whisper, but Mu Linfeng remained silent. After pondering for a while, he said: "The Dutch people hope that we will help him deal with Zheng Zhilong..."
Wang Zhizhen nodded and said, "The Dutch Russians mean that Zheng Zhilong is the one you want to deal with, so he asked us to send troops for this reason..."
Mu Linfeng smiled coldly when he heard this and said, "Zheng Zhilong was desperate in Fujian. At that time, the Dutch Russians were very kind-hearted. They knew I wanted to deal with it, but they still took Zheng Zhilong in... Now Zheng Zhilong is starting to make trouble on the island, the Netherlands
The Russians remembered this...huh..."
The ministers said at this time: "Yes... These Westerners are all yellow-haired, blue-eyed, and they cannot express their thoughts..."
"Not bad, what Lord Zhang said is very true. My subordinates would rather believe in Zheng Zhilong than believe in Western Russians..."
"But this Zheng Zhilong is indeed a hidden danger for our court to stay overseas..."
"The Dutch are using us as guns at this time..."
Mu Linfeng coughed twice at this time, and the ministers shut up and said nothing, but Wang Zhizhen said: "That's right, so the navy of Fujian immediately sent a military newspaper to ask the prince for your opinion..."
Mu Linfeng was still calm, but he kept thinking in his heart that if he sent troops, he would definitely be able to curb Zheng Zhilong's rise in the cradle. But wouldn't he cooperate with Westerners? What's the difference between this and selling the country?
What's more, this Ryukyu is originally the territory of China, but if we don't send troops, then Zheng Zhilong's soldiers will rise on Ryukyu Island. They will first drive away the Dutch people and then dominate Ryukyu. In the united forces of the countries in the South China Sea, it will be
If a large force wants to recover Ryukyu, there will be many people in Nanyang who are willing to meddle in other people's business.
Mu Linfeng thought of this, slapped the table and stood up, and said coldly: "The Dutch invaded the territory of our Ming Dynasty. It was like a robber. We must not send troops to help... But Zheng Zhilong was alone overseas, and he also viewed the division of the territory. The two forces were simply
It's a bird of a feather..."
Mu Linfeng said and turned to Wang Zhizhen, "Let the Fujian Navy pay close attention to the war in the South China Sea, and ignore this matter for the time being..."

Wang Zhizhen agreed repeatedly, but heard Mu Linfeng ask again: "How many ironclad ships have been produced in the Huai'an Shipyard in the past three months?"
Wang Zhizhen immediately said: "Ten days ago, the shipyard people came to report that they had produced more than 40 ships, and now they should be about fifty ships..."
Mu Linfeng nodded and immediately said: "Let forty iron armored ships test the waters first, then transfer them to the Fujian Strait, and be under the jurisdiction of Wang Jun. The matter of Ryukyu will be just like this... As long as we don't help each other, I believe this Ryukyu
It's hard to decide the winner for a while..."
At this time, I don’t know who said: “I’m afraid of the hardships, the residents of Ryukyu Island…”
Mu Linfeng felt aroused when he heard this. This official said something right. The most painful thing in the war is the common people. Unfortunately, the iron-clad ship is now too slow to manufacture, and it also needs to cooperate with Wu Xing's new cannon. In addition, Jiangbei has just been pacified.
Resuming production... Everything requires money. Once this battle begins, it is afraid it will not be a matter of Ryukyu Island.
Will the Nanyang, who secretly helped Zheng Zhilong, stand by and watch? Will the Westerners watch the Dutch pull them off from Ryukyu Island? The incident on Ryukyu Island is not big or small, it can be said that
It is a way to affect the whole body. If there is a conflict with Nanyang and a stalemate with Westerners, not only will the plan for Japan construction be shelved, but Shanghai may also be affected.
Mu Linfeng is not worried about the deterioration of his relationship with the Westerners, but once the war starts, it may not be so easy to end. Then the carefully designed Central Plains development plan over the past three months will have to be postponed indefinitely again.
, but we can't just watch the war in Ryukyu, not just ignore it, but have to fight to determine the world.
Mu Linfeng decided to do this and his head hurt a little. The current imperial court is not the same as before. It has a large area of territory in Jiangbei, which has always been a place with barren land and little grain. Now it has been recovered and I want to develop it.
, it is not a matter of one day or one night. All the food and military pay and grass for the garrison will temporarily rely on the financial expenditure of Jiangnan, and this expense can also be counted astronomical.
Mu Linfeng left the palace and immediately rode his horse to Wu Xing's mansion. In the past three months, not only Mu Linfeng was isolated from the world, but even Wu Xing was living in simplicity and devoted himself to developing airships. The hot air balloon has begun to be put into production in large quantities.
, but as Mu Linfeng thought during the experiment, the lack of directional power of the hot air balloon is always the biggest flaw.
When Mu Linfeng arrived at Wu Mansion, Wu Xing was drawing sketches in all his office spaces. The floor of the entire office space was covered with waste paper. Wu Xing's attitude of working on the design needs to be perfect. If he is not satisfied with it, he must start from scratch. This is a real way to do so.
Appreciated by the wind.
Mu Linfeng went in without knocking on the door. Wu Xing seemed not to pay attention to Mu Linfeng's arrival, and still focused on drawing the drawings. Mu Linfeng picked up the drawings on the ground and looked at them one by one, and found that the drawings were indeed very drawn.
Interestingly, Mu Linfeng originally thought that Wu Xing must be thinking about how to develop the engine, but he also knew that the engine was not as easy as a steam engine, so he didn't expect it. Besides, even if it was researched, the power problem would not be easy to solve.
Wu Xing's drawings are not for studying the engine, but for propellers. A double-person manned space is set up under the diamond-shaped airship. The upper floor can accommodate about fifteen to twenty people, while the lower floor is the key to the power. Take it out at the bottom floor
At the entrance of the hole, there are pedals similar to bicycles in later generations. There are six in front and back. If six people are arranged to take turns to step on the pedal here and start the propeller manually, the power problem will be completely solved.
The best thing is that there is no need to specifically hire those who are responsible for stepping on the pedal boards, and soldiers can be redirected to duty, so that the number of people they carry can be increased by about six more.
Seeing this, Mu Linfeng couldn't help but slapped the table and shouted: "Miao, Miao..."
Wu Xing was thinking hard, and when he heard Mu Linfeng scream, he was really shocked. He was about to get angry, and he looked up and saw that it was Mu Linfeng. He immediately stood up, walked to Mu Linfeng and said, "Brother Feng, why are you here?
…”
Mu Linfeng now only stared at the drawings in his hand, and said without raising his head: "Brother Wu, this idea is good... Why don't you give it up?"
Wu Xing sighed after hearing this, "I always feel that something is missing. And if I want to use artificial power, it will take a long time to train these soldiers. Last time, Brother Feng, you saw you, and those kids were so hot.
Even if I dare not go up the balloons, I don’t know how much cost budget I will increase!”
Mu Linfeng laughed when he heard this, then put down the drawings and said to Mu Linfeng: "Brother Wu, it is right to strive for excellence, but now this era cannot take care of so much. We need an absolute stable situation to bring long-term peace to the Central Plains.
The current situation is like this, and the troubled times must be ended as soon as possible... So as long as you can go to heaven and there will be no trouble, I think you can put into production. After all, time does not wait for anyone. When you develop a new method, we will update it.
It's the same, just like the musket before..."
Wu Xing smiled and had to nodded, then smiled and said, "Brother Feng said very well, I just like to be stubborn, I can't really develop engines, right? Okay, then follow this plan to put it into production!"
