Chapter 428

Dengzhou.

After learning that all the galleons built this year were launched, Xiao Ming informed Yue Yun to go to Dengzhou.

In different seasons of the year, Yue Yun and his navy soldiers are also carrying out different training. A month ago, they practiced operating warships in Dengzhou. Later, they returned to Bowen College for training on maritime knowledge, from which they selected the outstanding ones as the captain of the follow-up galleons.

Starting from Qingzhou, they arrived at Dengzhou city after driving for three consecutive days.

Along the way, Yue Yun was not idle. Instead, he had been simulating all kinds of sea operations with the selected 14 captains.

They put small models of galleons on the deck, 15 of which belonged to Qingzhou warships and 12 of which belonged to Dutch warships. They responded by constantly changing the tactical formation of both sides.

These warship formations are all from the textbook "naval tactics of sailing warships", which was written by Xiao ming'er in order to avoid heavy damage to the navy in the early days.

Over the past year, Yue Yun has been basically reading this textbook. From the textbook, he has a clear understanding of the naval encounter of windsurfing warships. However, his defeat in the battle of British warships has made him no longer arrogant but cautious.

"Here we are, your highness."

Dengzhou military port is in front of us, Zhang Kun said at this time.

With a nod, Xiao Ming looks at the military port which has just been completed this year. At this time, there are 15 warships moored in the bay of the military port. Three of them are very small. It can be seen at a glance that they are the first batch of galleons. Now the three galleons are restored to their original appearance after being repaired.

Then Xiao Ming looks to the outside and is shocked.

Because there is a huge warship with four decks moored there. When the merchant ship sails by the side of the warship, the warship is like a giant beast and needs people to look up.

"Your Highness, this warship is a class I sailing warship. This warship is 75 meters wide, 20 meters wide, with a draft of 9 meters and a displacement of 6000 tons. It can carry 1200 soldiers and install 120 guns at the same time."

Zhang Kun was proud when he introduced him, which is enough to prove their shipbuilding level. If it wasn't for the construction of this giant beast this year, they could have produced more class III sail warships.

After all, according to the shipyard's shipbuilding plan, the class III windsurfing warship is the main warship to be built.

The merchant ship continued to drive towards the wharf, followed by three class II warships, which were three deck warships, only smaller than class I windsurfing warships.

After the class II windsurfing warships, there are four class III warships and four class IV windsurfing warships. Now these warships dock in the Bay in turn, and the scene is very magnificent.

For a time, Xiao Ming was also swayed by his mind.

"Your Highness, this is a class II warship, which can build 960 crew members..." Zhang Kun talks a lot.

Yue Yun said excitedly: "Your Highness, just because of the size of the warship, the Dutch lost to us. It is said that the Dutch have a lot of colonies and scattered forces. If they defeat the Dutch this time, they will not be able to support them at all."

"That's right, so as long as we defeat the Dutch, East Asia is our sea area. Yue Yun, you must fight a beautiful battle for us this time. It depends on you whether you can get through the trade route of Qingzhou." Xiao Ming said.

Yue Yun clenched his teeth and said, "the last general will live up to his Highness's expectations. Moreover, the Dutch have always been in close contact with the Japanese. The last general is still waiting to pick up the Japanese pirates and avenge his mother."

"As you wish." Xiao Ming said with a faint smile.

The merchant ships flying the flag of king Qi attracted Zhang Liang's attention when they entered the bay. At this time, Zhang Liang was the leader on the wharf, and the builders of the shipbuilding workshop were waiting for the merchant ships to dock.

Looking at the nearer and nearer wharf, Xiao Ming has some sense of achievement. This bay is also a deep-water port in modern times. That's why he chose the shipyard here and made it the military port of Qingzhou.

When the merchant ship landed, Xiao Ming got off the ship, and Zhang Liang and his party immediately bowed to salute.

"no ceremony, warships launch, you are all meritorious service, this king has made Pang Chang history for you to restore Qingzhou's household registration, since then your Zhang's slave status has been relieved, so, Ben Wang also corresponds to the promise."

"Your Highness..."

Zhang Liang suddenly raised his head when he heard that Zhang Kun was surprised.

In the past two years, although they eat well, dress well and live the same life as normal people, the identity of slave has always been their shackles, because they understand that as long as the identity of slave is there, they are inferior.

After waiting for two years, they finally got to this day.

"Thank you, your highness

Zhang Liang burst into tears. After so many changes over the years, they have finally recovered their glory.

"Your Highness's words are admirable in my heart." Zhang Kun is more calm. He laughs.

Shaking his head, Xiao Ming said, "today is a happy day. Don't cry. Let's appreciate this warship."

Zhang Liang wiped his tears and said, "here, your highness."The dock extends from the shore to the middle of the sea, with a length of 300 meters. These warships dock on both sides of the dock.

With Xiao Ming, Zhang Liang went to the first class windsurfing warship and said excitedly, "Your Highness, now this warship can go to sea at any time, but the naming needs your Highness's approval."

In the era of windsurfing warships, class I windsurfing warships are generally used only in decisive battles, so class I windsurfing warships will not follow the fleet around, because class I windsurfing warships are very clumsy and far less flexible than Class III windsurfing warships.

However, in terms of firepower, it is really difficult for class I windsurfing warships to have rivals.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Ming said, "in this case, this warship will be ordered to be the king of Qi."

"The king of Qi!" Yue Yun said with a smile: "this name is good. In the name of your highness, this warship will be invincible!"

Yue Yun's words are exactly what Xiao Ming is looking forward to.

There are still 14 warships left without orders. An idea came out. Xiao Ming said, "the rest of the warships will be ordered by the cities of the fiefdoms. The six states will not care, and the Sixteen States of Yanyun will be added."

"Yes, your highness." Zhang Liang wrote it down.

After that, they climbed up the Big Mac through the rope ladder hanging from the warship.

Boarded the warship, Yue Yun and a group of students immediately rushed to all parts of the warship excitedly, rubbing their hands one by one, hoping to set sail now.

"Your Highness, now the warship is short of artillery. When will the artillery come?" Yue Yun asked.

Xiao Ming pondered for a moment and said, "at this time, I have informed the military workshop. Now the guns and ammunition are being loaded on the Qingzhou wharf, and it's fast."

As they spoke, they saw another group of people on the dock, but they were Yang Chengye, the governor of Dengzhou, and ye Qingyun, the governor.
