When the tiger flag was built on the grassland, changes also occurred on the Dayuan Island.

"Commander, our Garen ship has been built. This is the first Garen ship belonging to our tiger flag." Zheng Chao ran into the village with an excited look on his face.

Now the Tiger Banner has practiced many villages on Dayuan Island, and the scale is no less than that of Yan Siqi's ten villages on the other side.

Zheng Tie quickly walked out of the room, looked at Zheng Chao in front of him and said, "Did you mean the ship was built?"

Although he tried his best to suppress his emotions, he still couldn't help but become anxious when asking questions.

Zheng Chao nodded vigorously and said, "After so many repeated trials, this time it was finally successful. The cannon alone can be equipped with more than fifty doors."

Compared with the Fu Ship, in addition to the bow and stern of the Garen ship, there are iron cannons in the side of the ship and the cabin below, which are dozens of times the number of Fu Ship guns carried by the Fu Ship.

"Okay, okay, it's so great. We finally have our own Garen ship." Zheng Tie looked happy.

In the past few years on Dayuan Island, he knew that the two strongest forces on the sea were Li Dan and Hong Mao Yi.

Li Dan has always had business dealings with the Tiger Flag, and his relationship with the Red Maple Yi is not very good. Because the Red Maple Yi's Garen ship is much bigger than the Lucky Flag ship, he secretly suffered a lot of losses, and even a cargo ship and cargo were snatched away by the Red Maple Yi.

"With our own Garen ship, we will no longer have to be afraid of the red-haired man." Zheng Chao said angrily.

In order to open up the route with Nanyang, they sent cargo ships to Nanyang, but they encountered the Red Maowen merchant ship halfway, and later they never returned, even the ship and the people on the ship.

Finally, it was through Li Dan's relationship that I learned that the ship and cargo fell into the hands of Hong Maoyi, and the sailors on the ship were also killed by Hong Maoyi's people.

It can be said that this is the biggest loss of their tiger flag at sea.

"Let's go, follow me to the yard to see our new ship." Zheng Tie greeted and walked ahead first.

Zheng Chao took two steps and followed closely behind.

The two left the village.

The most deficient thing on Dayuan Island is forest people. The indigenous people on the island live in the forest, and the boat yard with the tiger flag is also in the forest. However, there is a deep river next to the boat yard, connecting the sea.

With the forest blocking of the boat yard, it is difficult for outsiders to find the boat yard hidden inside. Only those who can know the boat yard live in Bengang.

Zheng Tie walked along the river bank into the forest, and under the gaze of the guard post, he entered the boat yard.

"Is this a new ship?" Zheng Tie looked at the big ship in front of him with a look of surprise.

The big ship in front of me is larger than the lucky ship with the largest tiger flag. People stand below, like standing at the foot of a mountain.

Zheng Chao said excitedly: "Yes, this is our own Garen ship. Although it is not as good as the largest Garen ship in South China Sea, it has already headed for most of the ships of Hongmaoyi, and dozens of cannons are loaded on the ship. If we use the Garen ship in front of us to form a fleet, we will be invincible in the Daming Sea."

The biggest ship used by the Ming Dynasty was not the navy's ship, but the merchant ships that gentry and noble went to sea to do business. But even those ships, the Galen ship was only at the level of his younger brother.

"Commander." Yan Weixin walked over with a smile.

"Staff Officer Yan." Zheng Chao took the lead in saying hello.

Yan Weixin nodded at him with a smile.

"Have you tried going into the sea?" Zheng Tie asked.

Yan Weixin shook her head slightly and said, "Not yet, but after the boatman checked it, he would go out to sea for a while. Those people all said that there was no problem with the ship this time."

"It's better to make people feel at ease when going out to sea." Zheng Tie said, "If there is no problem after going out to sea, you can quickly build the next one."

Yan Weixin said: "Don't worry, the keel of the second Garen ship is about to be ready. As long as this new ship is fine, a second ship can be built soon."

"Don't worry if you are here to stare at me." Zheng Tie nodded and then said, "According to the previous rules, this ship is named Lingqiu."

Yan Weixin nodded.

At this time, Zheng Chao, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke, "Master, can you let your subordinates lead people to control the ship? When his subordinates were in Nanyang, they have never tried it with their own hands."

"Yes, you will be instructed this test ship." Zheng Tie nodded in agreement.

Hearing that he could control the first Garen ship of the Tiger Flag, Zheng Chao said excitedly: "Don't worry, the commander, I will definitely run this new ship well and make it a member of the fleet as soon as possible."

Zheng Tie nodded.

The earliest group of sailors in the tiger flag were trained through Zheng Chao's hands, so he was very relieved about Zheng Chao.

Yan Weixin looked at Zheng Chao and said with a smile: "Since Instructor Zheng is going to take a new boat to sea, let's get on the boat now. The boatmen should have almost finished checking now."

"Yes." Zheng Chao agreed, then saluted Zheng Tie, and then ran to the big ship docked in the river.

When Zheng Chao walked away, Yan Weixin withdrew his gaze and said, "Since the ten villages have become more and more excessive, it seems that they can't help but take action."

"Don't worry, they dare to take action and deal with them directly. Except for the one loss that had suffered in the hands of Hongmaoyi, our tiger flag had not suffered in anyone's hands!" Zheng Chao said coldly.

Yan Weixin said: "I will arrange people to keep an eye on the people in Ten Villages, but the natives on the island must not be guarded. There have been several times when the indigenous people were found to set fire to the ship."

"The Ten Villages pose the greatest threat to us. As long as the indigenous people on the island does not come to find trouble, they will ignore them. Once there are indigenous people who want to get close to the boat yard, you need to be polite and shoot them." Zheng Tie said.

Yan Weixin nodded and said, "I arranged three teams to patrol near the yard and arranged secret sentries, so it is difficult for outsiders to get close to them."

"The safety of the boat yard is our top priority. There must be no problems, especially those people who need to protect them. Before our craftsmen fully learn to build the Garen ship, they must not have any trouble." Zheng Tie reminded.

Yan Weixin said solemnly: "Don't worry about this. Those foreigners have dedicated people to protect them, and nothing can happen. However, a few foreigners are trying to go back to Nanyang. Should they let them go?"

"No." Zheng Tie shook his head and said, "You must not let these people go back. Even if our Garen ship is built, you cannot let them go. The matter of the Garen ship needs to be kept confidential. Once these people tell the Red Maple Yi about our Garen ship, it is very likely that the Red Maple Yi's ship will attack."

Yan Weixin thought for a while and said, "I'm worried that these people who want to go back to Nanyang will not build ships well and take the opportunity to cause trouble. After all, we still need these people to build Garen ships now."
