The Navy of Daheng was reorganized, with four main naval forces and two naval patrol battalions. The fundamental purpose of such a huge naval scale is naturally to keep up with the pace of the Age of Discovery.
Preparing for Daheng to completely move towards the ocean. At the same time, Daheng's increasingly prosperous maritime trade business also needs a powerful navy as a supporter to intimidate the young. In this way, we can ensure the smooth flow of shipping and ensure the smooth implementation of Daheng's marine strategy.
But these are just the functions on the surface.
In any era, any ruling order and any policy implemented must consider a fundamental factor that cannot be ignored.
That is rule!
Policy must never endanger national rule, and it is the same in Daheng today.
The restructuring of the navy is to move towards the ocean, stabilize maritime trade and commerce, and increase national fiscal and tax revenue.
But one thing that is undeniable is that the focus of the sea trade lies in the south, and the focus of the navy lies in the south.
In this way, it is obvious that it is completely incompatible with the fundamental rule of strong, trunk and weak branches.
No, I am afraid that the navy is directly under the center, but the navy is far away in the south of the Yangtze River and the imperial court is in the north. If this continues, the imperial court's control over the navy will inevitably weaken, and the navy's army will inevitably evolve into a situation of weak trunks and strong branches.
Even though there are many ways to clamp down the navy, this is inevitable and must be considered.
Therefore, the Bohai Navy was established in Tianjin.
No matter how important the functions and strategic significance of other naval divisions are, no matter how important the functions and strategic significance are, in the end, they are not as important as the Bohai Navy's naval division to defend the capital's maritime border!
The Bohai Navy is located in Tianjin. Tianjin Prefecture belongs to the Northern Zhili and Tianjin Maritime Control and Prefecture is directly under the center. It takes only two or three days to get away from the capital.
In this way, even if the Bohai Navy is nominally equal to the other three major navy divisions, in fact, whether it is the emperor or the imperial center, they all regard the Bohai Navy as the Beijing Navy.
It is an important part of maintaining strong, dry and weak branches!
Therefore, if the Daheng Navy was once the strongest in Jiangnan, after the Daheng Navy was reorganized, the distribution of other naval troops, whether warships, weapons, or generals, could be said to be slow, but only the Bohai Navy has changed rapidly since the beginning of the reorganization.
The scale of its establishment is second to none among the major navy masters of Daheng. According to the navy's reorganization of the constitution, the scale of the Bohai navy is more than twice that of other navy masters!
Although Tianjin Port, as the gateway to the capital, is the Tianjin Maritime Transportation Bureau and a north-south maritime hub, in fact, Tianjin Port is also a huge military fortress.
For sea-to-stop turrets alone, there are nearly a hundred large and large urinating groups in Tianjin Port, but these turrets are not managed by the navy, Tianjin Prefecture, or even Tianjin Guards, but are directly stationed by a battalion of elite battalions, namely Tianjin Haiwei Camp.
In the rivers leading to the capital in Tianjin, the official roads are also equipped with layers of checkpoints and heavy troops to guard them.
As sea transportation becomes more prosperous, whether it is the emperor or the civil and military in the court, he pays more and more attention to Tianjin, the gateway to the capital.
If the court officials in the court understands the new era, there is still some shortcomings, but if the court officials in the court have a complete method of centralized rule, strong and weak branches, and preventing evil deeds.
Even the emperor often learns from these methods of court officials.
Bohai Navy, Tianjin left and right guards, Haiweiying, Tianjin Prefecture, Tianjin Maritime Warehouse...
It is obvious that in this small area of ​​Tianjin Prefecture, under the attention of the court, the balance is not uncompromising.
"How much was the tariff revenue of Tianjin Maritime Corporation last year?"
As he looked around, the emperor seemed to remember something and suddenly asked a question.
Huang Wen immediately replied: "Report to Your Majesty, the Tianjin Maritime Control Commission's tariff income last year was nearly 1.38 million yuan, and a total of 1.3 million yuan was paid to the national treasury, of which 60,000 yuan was approved by the court to provide the capital for the expansion of the port, and 7,200 yuan was the daily consumption of the Maritime Control Commission..."
The emperor asked: "Is the paper money completely replaced the silver liang?"
"Report to Your Majesty, according to the regulations of the General Administration of Maritime Trade, since the eighth year of Zhaowu, all maritime trade transactions have been settled by paper money. Therefore, in the General Administration of Maritime Trade, all paper money are paper money. If it is in other places in Tianjin, there are still many silver and copper coins circulating among the people..."
The emperor nodded, looked around the port, and finally frozen on the merchant ship docking on the sea surface of the port.
The distinction between Chinese and foreigners is clearly reflected in every place, even if it is a ship,
Whether it is warships or merchant ships, Daheng and Western Yi are all extremely obvious.
The clearest difference is the word "ritual".
The pavilions and towers, this unique beauty of Han civilization, is very different from that of Western barbarians.
After his eyes were frozen for a moment, the emperor asked again: "Where is there any difference between Western barbarians and Daheng communicating with trade?"
"The Western barbarians are mostly polite and rude. The current court stipulates that the Western barbarians trade in business have designated areas and cannot be crossed. When the Western barbarians dock, there are strict registration and control measures..."
"Although there are occasional illegalities, they are still abiding by rules and regulations in general."
The emperor chuckled, and the Western barbarians followed the rules and regulations, which was undoubtedly a joke.
If it weren't for the years that the Daheng Navy had been rampant near the sea and fought several naval battles, the Western Barbarians would not have been so honest.
Even so, outside the scope of Daheng Navy's activities, there are many Daheng's merchant ships being robbed by Western barbarians.
If you can't defeat it, you will trade for merchant ships. If you can beat it, you will plunder and colonize the army.
This set has long been mature and systematic in Western Yi.
The East India Company's weird system has long been mature and sound.
The Western barbarian merchant ships were rampant in the world, almost unimpeded, and they became kings and dominant. It was here in Daheng. In the Ming Dynasty, they were blocked by the Ming Dynasty, and now Daheng has beaten Daheng many times before they became honest and could only choose to abide by Daheng's rules and orders.
Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but shake his head. The thinking of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom is still too heavy. Although Daheng is now in contact with overseas, he has too much prejudice and too much pride. There are too few people who are truly willing to look overseas.
What made the emperor most helpless was that he did not want to look overseas in a direct way, but it was not because of the Qing Dynasty's seclusion in the country and being self-contained, but just because he was too arrogant and regarded Daheng as barbarians and was not worth mentioning.
Even if the emperor attaches importance to it, it will be of no use.
After all, for civil and military officials, reality is reality.
Nowadays, the reality is that the Western Yi has been beaten up by Da Heng many times, and has no power to fight back.
The idea of ​​guarding oneself to live a life of three parts is like the mainstream of scholars.
Wu Xun's energy is now in the north and southwest, and few people can spare their energy to pay attention to how overseas.
Moreover, the navy was only a rising star, the main body of the Daheng Martial Honor, and the generals who conquered all directions on land.
Even Li Dingguo, the leader of the navy's martial arts honor, was also a land military general who became a monk halfway through.
Obviously, under the influence of these factors, if it were not for the current maritime tariffs, they would have become the most important fiscal and tax revenue for the court. Overseas, they would not even appear in the center of the court and would not cause any trouble.
