The day when Wang Jun set out was a long time later than expected.

Gan Hui and others returned from Liaodong very late. They patroled the Zhoushan Islands in Zhejiang Province and used new warships to deter the fishermen. They said they were fishermen, but they might become pirates one day, so they had to hit them.

I replenished the tamsui and shipped a lot of goods from Dengzhou. It was already past November when I finally returned to Bengang.

This year is the most active time of the Little Ice Age. Even Guangzhou has a record of snow. Taiwan’s climate is warmer than the mainland. However, the temperature drops after November, and many people wear robes to keep warm.

People who came from Liaodong couldn't even wear robes. Everyone took off their thick cotton jackets and moved their bodies, hoping to jump into the sea and swim around.

Gan Hui smiled at Wang Zheng and said, "I know Brother Wang came from Datong, but you have been in the south for two years. You may not be able to adapt when you go back. When we were in Liaodong, it was two consecutive snowfalls. Looking at the past, there was no trace of colors. On Pi Island every day, there was a breeze that was shaking. I didn't dare to open my mouth wide. The wind could blow straight into my stomach, and my whole body was as cold as an ice popsicle. I stayed outside for a while and my face became silenced. The wind cut people's hands and faces like a knife. At first, someone didn't care, but later it was frostbite. There was no way, so I would just wrap my whole body with big sweaters and even apply animal oil to my hands and face."

Wang Jun laughed at the ear and said, "I was born and raised in Datong, and I have experienced a lot of this kind of weather."

"Different, different." Gan Hui said: "I have also gone from Datong to Mobei, and then to the Russian territory in the extreme north. It is much colder than Liaodong, but there is nothing to adapt to it. It's just that it's cold and warm, and it's really hard to be."

"Brother Gan said this, we will be careful." Feeling the friendship of comrades, the so-called disputes between the people in the south and the north were also greatly alleviated. Wang Zheng smiled and clasped his fists, then waved goodbye to the people who were seeing off the shore.

The attendants also stepped on the springboard to get on board. The ship had just returned and had to set off again after a few days of maintenance. Fortunately, the new ship, which had just been launched, was ready to set off again after simple maintenance.

"Wang, you must emphasize that the plan to build a large ship cannot be postponed, it must be carried out as soon as possible!"

Not only Chinese people are seen off in the port, but also quite a few Russians with high noses and deep noses. After a long time of getting along, these Russians have basically learned Chinese, and of course they also have a correct and honest official language... This is Zhang Han's request. Because the source of personnel within Hutchison is quite complicated, it is no longer limited to Xuanda. There are people from northern Shaanxi, southern Shanxi, Hebei, Liaodong, Fujian, and quite a lot of Mongolians. If they are limited to Datong accent, they will also have considerable troubles in communication with the outside.

Northern Mandarin became Mandarin in later generations. At least it was not as difficult to promote southern dialects. Now, the daily life of Hutchison has been dominated by Northern Mandarin, even the same is true for the army, because the source of military personnel cannot be from the same place. When communicating with each other, communication must be done in Mandarin according to requirements.

It was said that Dyzhnev was talking about official words, but he was not very popular.

"Don't worry." Wang Zheng smiled and said, "I will definitely report our entire plan to us.

"The situation will become very serious." Dyzhnev looked at Wang Jun and said word by word: "We may lose our trade routes and be blocked in the port."

Wang Jun's face changed and he said, "It's impossible!"

Jezhnev shook his head and made a helpless hand gesture.

When Wang Zheng and others got on the boat, they put away the springboard. The sailboat was pulled away from the pier and port area by the Baji Ship. After entering the sea, the Baji Ship rowed and left, the sailboat was experiencing wind, and slowly drove away. After a moment, it left people's sight.

"Komov." Deszhnev said to his assistant with a gloomy face: "Although these Chinese guys invited us over at a high price, they just wanted us to be shipbuilding techniques, captains, sailors, and teach them how to drive sailboats, how to deal with those chaotic ropes that are more messy than threads. They want captains, chief mates, sailors, and qualified sailors, but they have never thought about the grand strategy and tactics of the navy at all. It is ridiculous!"

Komov shrugged and said, "This country has only naval forces, no navy. That is to say, they only have coastal defense forces and have never penetrated deep into the ocean."

"They have Zheng He." said Dyzhnev: "The huge fleet, with tens of thousands of people going to sea and sail, but just like the current situation, they themselves do not know the purpose and goal of the voyage. They have no goals at all but absurd actions of wasting money to declare their national prestige, so they were later stopped by their ministers."

"They can't understand the Europeans' naval thinking and practices." Komov said somewhat tolerantly: "It doesn't matter, give them time."

"But we don't have much time." said Deszhnev. "Originally, I hoped that I could go down from the Arctic Ocean to the east within ten years to find the warm water estuary in the east. Now I know that there will be ports along the east coast of Liaodong, Ming Dynasty. Although it is not the unfreezing port we want, as long as we have a place, we can build ships and go back all the way back, find the estuary and advance to the middle of Siberia. In this way, the large area of ​​land that goes east will belong to the great motherland and the Tsar. We are so anxious, the Dutch are the same... In the Baltic Sea, although our biggest enemy is Sweden, we have a lot of dealing with the British and Dutch people. We can't know how they deal with potential enemies and conflicts!"

Komov looked solemn and nodded heavily.

Komov said seriously: "The Dutch will feel the threat of the Hutchison Hutchison who is safe, and they will definitely find a way to solve this threat!"

"But it's still early to form with Yusheng Navy..."

"Their jacks are not even our sailing fast ships and sailing boats!"

"Sail Clipper..." Dyzhnev's face looked musing, as if he had been reminded by Komov.

The sailing and cliffs are also the characteristic of the Baltic naval battle... After entering the 16th century, with the arrival of the Age of Discovery, the era of sailing warships also came. The sailing and cliffs that once rampant in the Mediterranean had an awkward position and were facing the fate of being eliminated.

Large sailing and cliffs can only carry up to five to ten copper cannons. The largest Venetian giant sailing and cliff ship has a record of carrying thirty cannons, but they are all small and medium-sized cannons, which are completely incomparable to the large cannons on sailing battleships. Therefore, by the 17th century, most of the maritime powers had eliminated paddling warships and were all equipped as sailing warships.

The Baltic countries, especially Sweden and Russia, retained a considerable number of paddling warships until the beginning of the 18th century. Especially during the reign of Emperor Peter the Great, several large-scale naval battles broke out, making Russia an empire, and Peter gave great military achievements to the emperor.

Sailing ships generally have fifteen slurries on the left and right sides. The slurries are more than ten meters long and lined up on both sides. They have advantages over sailing warships in the calm sea, both speed and maneuverability. This is also the reason why the Russians continued to build sailing cranes and sailing warships in the 18th century when they built sailing warships.

Especially with strong enough warriors, in the corner battle, the role of the sailboat is much greater than that of the sailboat.

"We must discuss this matter with the marching department." Komov said: "It is better not to be late."

Jeszhnev said: "Chang Wei is not here, Wang Jun is gone, Jiang Kui and Zhang Xuwen are not at the camp. It seems that we can only discuss with Li Shouxin. This matter was originally meant to have his military subordinates do their best."

"Li?" Komov shook his head and said, "A standard typical soldier, if you only care about military affairs, may not be able to help."

"You've read this wrongly." Jezhnev smiled and said, "Li is just a very wise person. He has the strongest military power in the whole Taiwan. Before the establishment of a new team or before there is a force to restrain him, he will choose to interfere as little as possible in political affairs. It gives people the impression that he does not understand military and political affairs, but it is not that he does not understand military and political affairs, but that he makes the wisest decision and choice at a certain stage. When he understands that things are urgent and we really need his help, this person will make the right decision."

...

“This sailing boat is really fast.”

“The shape is also very weird.”

"Are these terrible Chinese people no longer satisfied with their jungle ship?"

When the Zhongwei of Datong passed by the Penghu sea, a huge Dutch warship had just arrived from the sea far away. The two sides met several nautical miles apart. The warship of Yusheng was very full of wind and rushed away from the left quickly. The Dutch warship had just arrived at the port. The main sail had already fallen and was adjusting the hull with the side sail. The small boat sailed out of the port and was preparing to drag the big ship into the port. At this time, both sides discovered each other.

The Dutch stood on the bow of the ship and the sidewalk, looking at the clutch with a surprised look.

The shape of the schooner is obviously different from that of the Garen boat, and it is also different from ordinary large sailing boats. The hull is obviously more streamlined. There is no boat tower on the bow, only long corners, and the stern at the hull does not even have corners. The hull looks thin and simple, and the mast is only brigged. Driven by the mule sail and the main sail, the hull flew past like a shuttle, and the speed is about 30% higher than that of ordinary large sailing boats and Garen boats.

The captain of the Dutch ship paid more attention to the side of the schooner. When he saw that there were multiple decks and obvious muzzles on both sides of the ship, the Dutch man's face became gloomy.
