Chapter 204 Fleet

If there were no Spaniards, or if the history before the arrival of colonists after the Ming Dynasty was longer, there is a high probability that Luzon would have become a province of China.

Due to its close geographical location, Chinese people have been crossing the sea for hundreds of years to live and colonize Luzon.

When hundreds of Spaniards colonized Luzon, the local Chinese population already numbered tens of thousands. Fearing that the large number of Chinese would threaten their rule, the Spaniards carried out many bloody massacres on the island.

Just when Zheng Chenggong took Taiwan, the Spanish were brutally treating the Chinese on the island.

After learning about the Dutch's actions, Wan Jun made up his mind to speed up operations in the South China Sea. It was time to deal with the Spanish.

After getting the result he wanted, Boluoduozhi nodded to Wan Jun with satisfaction, then sat on the chair and looked at Wang Lihui with a smile.

Wang Lihui finally waited until the two of them finished speaking, and said impatiently, "Führer, I have good news. Our Academy of Sciences has made new progress!"

Since returning from Wuchang, due to the continuous expansion of the advantage of the entire war situation, the Chinese army no longer needs superior weapons to achieve increased combat power, and the Wanjun army has much less demand for new weapons.

Coupled with the failure of the aircraft plan and the experimental cabin being burned by the Manchus, Wan Jun no longer had any hope of developing a black technology weapon that would transcend the times.

In the war between the north and the northwest, even the current Chinese army has enough strength to overthrow its opponents. Wan Jun is curious about what good news Wang Lihui can have, "What progress?"

Wang Lihui smiled mysteriously, "Does the head of state still remember the aircraft plan he mentioned?"

Wan Jun was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Wang Lihui smiled and said, "The hard work pays off, we made it!"

Wan Jun was taken aback. He had originally imagined that having an air force would be invincible. But now that he heard Wang Lihui's words, Wan Jun felt a sense of unreality, "You mean, you have built an airplane?"

Wang Lihui said, "Yes, I have already tried to fly successfully, so I decided to report the matter to the head of state!"

Wan Jun stood up and asked, "Is this serious?"

"Absolutely true!"

After receiving the confirmed news, Wan Jun slapped the table and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Go and have a look!"

Riding fast horses, everyone left Chang'an City and headed south to a deserted slope.

A soldier stood on a deserted hillside. When he saw the crowd coming over, he waved. Everyone turned around and saw a wooden fence surrounding the city. A group of Chinese soldiers were patrolling outside the wall.

After entering the low wall and walking forward for a quarter of an hour, there was a valley sandwiched between two mountains, where several houses were built.

Wan Jun saw some people moving from a distance, but the most eye-catching thing were the two strange objects placed in the open space. They were similar to the reconnaissance hot air balloons originally invented, but there were some differences.

This object has a huge oval belly, with a huge cabin hanging under the belly, four wings extending six to seven meters on both sides, and a tail like an airplane behind it.

Everyone rode their horses to get closer, and Wan Jun looked up and down. The plane was not an airplane, and the hot air balloon was not like a hot air balloon.

Wang Lihui said from the sidelines, "This is the aircraft we have continuously improved and built based on the head of state's description!"

Wan Jun didn't believe it, "Can this thing fly?"

Wang Lihui said anxiously, "We have tried it many times. As long as we avoid strong winds, our aircraft can control its flight direction."

Wan Jun said, "What's the weather like today? Can I fly?"

Wang Lihui raised his head and looked around

He looked up and felt the flow of the air. "Today's wind is not strong, so we can fly. If the wind is too strong, our plane will not be able to control the flight direction, and the landing location will be difficult to control."

After Wang Lihui finished speaking, he looked at Wan Jun with a guilty conscience, "The head of state really wants to test flight?"

Wan Jun said, "Is it still fake?"

Wang Lihui nodded, invited several people to board the oval cabin, and started operating the machine separately.

Wan Jun followed Wang Lihui onto the plane. After looking around, he determined that this was an upgraded version of a hot air balloon, but the airbag had been changed to a fixed one, and wings and tails had been added according to his own aircraft drawings.

About a quarter of an hour later, the aircraft trembled slightly, and Wan Jun felt dizzy before his eyes. When he came to his senses, the huge thermodynamic aircraft had slowly left the ground.

One foot, two feet, three feet, the aircraft rose higher and higher, just like a hot air balloon.

At a distance of seven or eight feet from the ground, Wang Lihui began to direct the operation while explaining to Wan Jun, "Our aircraft is much more advanced than hot air balloons. Hot air balloons can only move upward or be blown away by the wind in the air. Our aircraft can

Adjust the direction in the air and move forward in the selected direction."

As the operator turned a transmission wheel, Wan Jun saw that the extended tail began to tilt to one side, and a pair of large propellers in front of the wings on both sides began to rotate, urging the entire large flying ball to start rotating.

Wang Lihui raised his hand excitedly, "Okay, the turn is completed, move forward!"

Following Wang Lihui's order, the big flying ball began to move slowly towards the mountain. It flew to the side of the mountain. When the wind blew over, the big flying ball flew sideways in a swaying direction.

Wang Lihui immediately ordered the flight direction to be adjusted, and the big flying ball made a circle and landed back into the valley.

Wan Jun was very excited. Although this thing looked very unreliable, it successfully achieved flight. He praised, "Not bad. With the air force, it is a dimensionality reduction blow for the enemy!"

Wang Lihui was extremely excited, "The head of state was so complimentary."

Wan Jun said, "But this thing of yours is still far from a real airplane, so continue your research!"

Returning to Chang'an City, Wan Jun communicated the information about Boluoduozhi to other Zhuguo, and began to prepare for a new Zhuguo.

The news that the Eight-Power Allied Forces formed by the Hongyi people were approaching in a mighty manner immediately broke up the dispute at the Zhuguo meeting. The topic of discussion became how many troops the Eight-Power Allied Forces had and how many troops were left in the north to attack the Manchus.

Five days later, Li Dingguo rushed to Chang'an, and the new Zhuguo Conference was not delayed for a moment.

Wan Jun informed everyone about the information about Boluoduozhi, and the others had already learned the news in advance. After Li Dingguo heard about it, he wondered, "The Hongyi people are thousands of miles away from me. How can they dare to raise an army if they are barbarians?"

Attack me?"

Zhang Sheng said, "The Yi's shipbuilding and artillery skills should not be underestimated. I heard that more than ten years ago in Fujian, Zheng Zhilong fought with the Dutch Red Hair. Although Zheng Zhilong won, think about it, the Red Hair people were only a dozen or so people.

A big ship, thousands of miles away, arrived at the doorstep, and Zheng Zhilong had nearly two hundred ships to fight at home."

"What if there weren't more than ten red-haired men's ships? What if the battle took place in a place other than Fujian?"

Zhang Sheng's words caused everyone to ponder for a while. Zhang Wuyang asked for a long time, "Are we from China inferior to the red-haired Yi people?"

No one answered, the Central Kingdom has had its advantages for thousands of years, will it one day become inferior to the Red-haired Yi people?

But this matter is placed on the table, as if it is stuck in your throat!

Wan Jun knows better than anyone else that after the European voyages, technology and civilization were developing rapidly. When Westerners in the 19th century

When the powerful ships and cannons arrived, everyone suddenly realized that the gap between China and Europe was already so huge.

Wan Jun said, "That's Zheng Zhilong. Our Chinese army's current artillery and ships are not necessarily worse than Hongmao, not to mention that we now have stronger secret weapons!"

"A stronger secret weapon?"

Everyone asked curiously, "What secret weapon?"

Wan Jun stretched out his finger and pointed upward and said, "We now have an air force. I can guarantee that you will be able to see it when the war begins!"

Wang Lihui's aircraft plan is a top secret among top secret projects, and even Zhao Boyuan doesn't know the content.

"war!"

Zhao Boyuan said, "If we go to war with the Hongyi, the north will have no choice but to cancel the original grassland plan. Then we can only have a stalemate with the Manchus along the Great Wall?"

Zhang Sheng said, "I still have my original opinion. The military operations against the Manchus cannot be stopped. Even if they are harassed by a small group of troops, military contact must be maintained. The Tatars must not be allowed to live in peace. In addition, there must be an economic blockade and all food.

Not a single bit of cloth or iron can flow into Liaodong, as it will trap them to death!"

Chen Xinmin said, "What about the Mongols? The Urad Mongols have expressed their submission to us, and the attitude of the Mongolians in the north is also turning towards us. If the economy is blocked, the Mongols will turn to the Manchus again, but if there is no blockade, the supplies will definitely

It flowed to the Manchus in Liaodong."

Zhang Sheng waved his hand and said, "Don't believe them. The Mongols and the Manchus are on the same side."

Zhang Sheng stopped the army and said, "Don't be impulsive. We can't kill them all. There are not only Mongols in the north, but also Russians. If we push them too hard, I'm worried that they will defect to Russia. What's more, our focus now is in the south."

.”

Li Dingguo said, "Someone has something to say, but I don't know whether to say it or not!"

Everyone looked at Li Dingguo and Wan Jun said, "It doesn't matter if you say it!"

Li Dingguo participated in the Pillar Congress for the first time, and moved a little cautiously, "The red barbarians came across the sea, and they couldn't rely on large ships and cannons. The Spanish troops in Luzon are only a thousand people. We don't need too many soldiers and horses. The key to the battle is

He's a navy master."

Wan Jun said, "Well, Dingguo, please continue."

Li Dingguo said, "The Zheng family has been managing the South China Sea for many years, and has fought with the Dutch to become familiar with naval warfare. He ordered Guangdong and Taiwan's coastal defense to build more large ships and artillery. With only 10% of the navy, Zheng Chenggong led his army to wait for work in the South China Sea, and the red barbarians came across thousands of miles.

No amount of ships will help."

Zhang Wuyang said, "For a land battle, the Southwest Front Army can handle it!"

Wan Jun nodded, "I have the same intention. The Manchu Qing Dynasty in the north is at the end of its war effort and cannot give the enemy a chance to breathe. Zhao Boyuan will be in charge of Beijing and continue to use troops to attack Liaodong."

Zhao Boyuan responded, "Liao will be defeated within three years!"

Wan Jun said, "Liaodong is not a personal concern. There are Russians to the north of the Qing Dynasty. If there is contact, don't hesitate to annihilate them all on the spot. Our bottom line is Lake Baikal, which is the front line of the Suwu Muyang Sea."

Zhao Boyuan responded, and Wan Jun said again, "The northwest is also a big event. Chen Xinmin will build the Hami government, re-operate the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains in the Western Region, and regain the old territory of the Western Region Protectorate!"

"Liu Tichun led people to Nanjing, and Jiangnan continued to implement the calculation method. The gentry paid the grain as one, and a loyalty tax was levied. Anyone who disobeyed would have their homes confiscated and exiled to Qiuci, and those who resisted would be exterminated."

"Zhang Wuyang returned to Kunming and continued to take charge of the southwest, while Zhang Sheng and Dingguo stayed in Chang'an to handle court affairs!"

Zhang Sheng said, "The six pillar countries each have their own arrangements. So when it comes to going to the South China Sea to attack the Red-haired Fleet, doesn't it mean that only the head of state can do it?"
