Outside of Kaohsiung Harbor, the fleet set sail and drifted away until the shadow of the sail disappeared in the sky. The Queen Mother Yang moved back to the palace. This was the last time she appeared in public. Since then, Queen Mother Yang has been deprived of the emperor's support. Power entered the cold palace and was put under house arrest. The emperor Zhao Bing's education and growth were the responsibility of ministers.
The overseas trade of the Song Dynasty was very developed, and the number of sea-going ships was quite large. These fifty ships were loaded with food, drinking, water, weapons and ammunition, and were also equipped with sextants and compasses made by the patriotism of the party. They were definitely considered a pivotal navy in the world. In the eleventh century AD, the great nautical era has not yet begun on the earth. Australia and North and South America have not been discovered by European colonists. Endless territories and treasures are waiting for them to conquer and seize as long as they want.
However, the traversers did not replace the ambitions of Columbus and Magellan. They still had their homeland in mind and focused on how to return to the baseline time and space. Therefore, after leaving Kaohsiung, the fleet headed south and crossed the Bashi Channel, which is Luzon in the Philippines. Island, now this place is called Mayi, which is still an uncivilized land.
A few days later, the fleet arrived at Mayi, anchored in a natural and fine harbor in the eastern part of Luzon, and landed to establish a base. The first to land on land was Liu Handong. He held a Song flag and inserted the flagpole in it. The beach announced loudly: "From now on, this is Da Song's territory."
Although the Song Dynasty has been expelled from the Central Plains by the Mongols, it is still the orthodox of the Han family. The travellers do not have the ambition to build a country and still regard themselves as Song people. Everyone has no objection to this.
The local indigenous peoples in Mayi were still in a barbaric state, unable to compete with the colonists, so they had to let them cut trees and burn bricks by the sea, build houses and castles, and slowly take root.
The number of new immigrants in this group is only 1,500. Men account for the vast majority. Women account for only a handful of 38. Among them, 30 are women from Fan, Guan Lu, Zhen Yue, and Luzhu. Palace ladies are the second largest female camp, and the remaining few are the wives of pirates. The number of boys and girls brings a serious problem. It is difficult for immigrants to efficiently multiply their offspring and expand the population.
Of course, there are ways. The easiest way is to intermarry the local indigenous people of Mayi. However, the Southeast Asian race is short, black and thin, and the mixed race born will not look good, which is really difficult.
A castle was quickly completed by the sea. The party’s patriotism named this place as Xin Bianjing. He is an excellent traveler and possesses a wealth of knowledge about ancient life. He can quickly improve living conditions regardless of the dynasty. Settling in the world, Wu Neng will immediately determine the universe. This is not bragging. The party is a history professor. He reads the four books and five classics, can recite famous poems and songs in history, and can silently write the top scholars in the imperial examinations of various dynasties. The palace test article, written in a beautiful small letter; he can make cement, can make steel and iron, can build European three-masted ships, can burn glass, can also make steam engines and iron-clad ships, in time, he can conquer the earth .
But now he is suffering from lovesickness.
People change their mood with the environment. The patriotism of the benchmark time and space is a diamond king. There is no shortage of women around him, and he rarely affects anyone. He is acting on the spot, taking what he needs. Sleeping with the Queen Mother. The original intention was not pure, but I just wanted to satisfy my little nasty thoughts and sleep with a respected woman. The young and beautiful queen mother in exile was the best choice. At first, he thought he would not be moved. When he left Kaohsiung, he I also feel that I will come out soon, but the fact is that as long as I am idle, the Queen Mother will appear in my mind.
The Queen Mother Yang, whose name is Yang Wanyi, is the concubine of Song Duzong. A widow who has lost her husband and children is already pitiful enough. She has to take in the happiness of the rest of her life. This is so sad that the party patriot feels that she is useless. , Can make steel, burn bricks, and build steam engines. What a man can't even protect his own woman.
...
Liu Qiu, Kaohsiung Prefecture, Prime Minister Wen Tianxiang inspected the brick kiln port. The smoke outlet of the brick kiln was blocked by the ashes, and a furnace of 100,000 bricks was scrapped. This is a sequelae of the party’s patriotic departure, although he taught without reservation. Skills, those craftsmen have also learned how to operate, but the workers know it but don't know why. If nothing happens, it will be unfair.
The problem of burning bricks can be solved. The big deal is to give up the red bricks and continue to burn the blue bricks and blue tiles, but the work of the Armament Institute must not make any mistakes, especially the production of artillery. That is the killer of the Song Dynasty. After the party’s patriotism is gone, , The various work of the Armed Forces Institute also fell into a semi-stop state, the quality of the steel produced was not good, and all downstream production was affected.
At this time Wen Tianxiang realized the importance of the party's patriotism, and he couldn't help lamenting: "God won't help me Da Song."
The patter of winter rain is falling, and the winter of Liuqiu is also cold. In the cold rain, Wen Tianxiang is driving the Imperial College, and the book is full of sound. The teaching work of the sages and books has been restored here, and all mathematics and materials are no longer studied.
Wen Tianxiang stood outside the school building for a while and listened to the students reciting the surnames of the common family. He suddenly thought about it. If the Imperial College can cultivate talents who can replace the party and patriotism, wouldn't it solve a big problem? Those mathematics textbooks are of great use. , He quickly found Guozijian Jijiu and asked him where the teaching materials compiled by the Eight Immortals were.
"It's all sent to fill the hearth." 　Master Jijiu said contemptuously. He is the heir of Zhu Xi who is an old scholar of upright children and eight classics. He most resents and hates fallacies and heresies.
Wen Tianxiang hurriedly came to the kitchen of the Imperial College and turned out some fragments from under the stove. He couldn't help but feel distressed. The order to abolish the mathematics was given by himself, so he had to knock off his teeth and swallow with blood.
After leaving the Imperial College, Prime Minister Moon drove to Kaohsiung Port again, 　The plan of industrial products for food formulated by the party’s patriotism is still in progress. Cheap rice trafficked from Champa has fed Kaohsiung’s 300,000 people, and it is grown in crops outside the city. It is also a high-yielding Champa rice. With the increase of arable land, it will be self-sufficient in a few years.
The sea was foggy and the clouds were overwhelming. Wen Tianxiang retracted his thoughts and looked at a strange three-masted ship in the harbor. This is a warship designed and built by the Party’s patriotism. It has not been officially completed. Although there are drawings, no one can follow the construction. If this warship is outfitted, it can be equipped with three hundred artillery, it will be a giant at sea.
Wen Tianxiang kindly comforted the craftsmen and asked them to try their best to build the warships. Those who offer ideas and suggestions will be rewarded, but looking at the frowning faces of the craftsmen, it may be difficult to achieve results under the gold.
The sea breeze brought the sailors' unbridled laughter and curse. Wen Tianxiang, who was sitting in the sedan chair, listened carefully and heard that they were saying that the Eight Immortals had gone to Mayi and opened up wasteland in Mayi under the banner of Song Dynasty. leaf.
"If it weren't for filthy chaos, they would be regarded as loyal ministers and good generals." Wen Tianxiang thought, but it is a taboo to have fornication with the Queen Mother.
Wen Tianxiang was about to return to the house, 　 suddenly heard the bearer's exclamation: "My lord, there is a ship on the sea!"
Isn’t it a normal thing to have ships on the sea? Kaohsiung Port must not allow hundreds of ships to enter the port every day. Wen Tianxiang's face sank, he opened the car curtain and was about to scold him, but his hands froze.
On the mist-shrouded sea, at the end of the sky, a shadow of a mast and sail came from west to east.
Could it be that the Eight Immortals are back? Wen Tianxiang was faintly relieved, but doubts arose again. If he came from Ma Yi, he should come from the South, not the West.
He took out the telescope, which was also a patriotic invention of the party, a kind of monocular telescope polished with natural crystal, which can see the situation in extremely far places, and is most useful in naval battles.
In the camera, the mast is like a forest, and the flag is flying. It is a "yuan".
The sea fog dissipated, the sun was shining, and an extremely large fleet on the sea horizon showed its true body. The shapes of these warships were very strange. The bows were painted with hideous beast heads, and the hulls were covered with black iron armor. It is a dense array of blastholes.
"No, the Pu family does not have a warship of this kind." Wen Tianxiang was shocked and wondered. Within a year, the Yuan Dynasty could not build such a huge fleet, and the style of these warships was different from any ship in his memory. , But it is somewhat similar to the three-masted ship designed by Dang Paiguo.
Unknowingly, the navy of the Yuan Army concealed the eyeliner of the land of Fujian and Guangdong, broke through the defense line of Penghu, and reached the port of Kaohsiung.
The bells echoed inside and outside Kaohsiung Harbor, and the Song Army warship hurriedly met the enemy, and the two sides launched a fierce naval battle in the coastal waters outside the port.
Marine General Marshal Zhang Shijie rushed to ~EbookFREE.me~ to watch the battle with Wen Tianxiang. He was confident and said: "The prime minister does not have to panic. Our army has magic weapons in hand, and there are no more ships of Tartar."
The Song Army warships were generally equipped with ship-borne artillery, which had longer barrels and larger tonnage than land artillery. In order to ensure the range, they did not take the form of sub-guns, but were standard front-muffle guns. The rated charge in the silk bag is selected according to the range. The shells also have solid shells, bloom shells and chain shells. The latter is a special shell for naval warfare. Two iron are linked by iron chains and fired. Shaking quickly behind the chamber is extremely destructive to the wooden hull.
With this sharp firearm, Zhang Shijie was naturally full of confidence. He sneered and raised the telescope, hoping to see the sons smashing the Yuan army's warships with artillery, but what he saw was that the Yuan army's warships also extended artillery. .
The two armies blasted against each other, and high water jets rose up on the sea. It was splashes from failed artillery shells. Occasionally, ships were shot and sawdust flew across the board, causing deaths and injuries. This battle is different from any previous naval battle. No longer arrows, but gunpowder and artillery shells, the casualty rate and bloodiness of the war have risen directly.
"When did the Mongolians have artillery?" Zhang Shijie put down the telescope, shocked and depressed.
