I am one year older than Chongzhen

Chapter 353 New Chapter 333: Young Sailor

As the saying goes: If there is no one in the government, don’t be an official!

There are people in the court, people at the border, and people around the emperor. How comfortable will this official be in the future?

Liu Yulie thought about it, money is something external to the body, and he made too much this time. After returning to the capital, he doubled the gifts for adults, colleagues, and those of the same year.

Li Changgeng, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was also a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and the ice tribute given to him must be three times more.

With great achievements and a lot of money to smooth relationships, it shouldn't be a problem to get promoted to a higher level.

There is a vacancy for the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and this position should be fought for.

Then he would slowly endure it, and if there were any shortages in the six ministerial books, he would hopefully make further progress.

Now that you have become a minister, is it still far behind to join the cabinet?

Wang Kun has been thinking about it for a long time. His godfather, Mr. Cao, has not seen his filial piety for a long time. This time, he will directly give three thousand taels of gold.

The younger brother Wang Chengen is often on duty with the emperor now, so he must deepen his relationship and give him ten thousand yuan and eight thousand taels of silver.

Brother Wang Dehua couldn't treat him lightly and gave him five thousand taels of silver.

The old man Zhang Yixian offended the Sa family badly last time. After returning home, he came to apologize in person and gave him five thousand taels of silver.

Zheng Lianghan, Xie Wenju, Fu Jinchao, Wei Dian, Lu Wende, etc. were all close to the Holy Emperor, so a gift of one thousand taels of silver to each family was quite a lot.

Damn, it’s fun to have more money! Sajia can also spend money like water!

Zhu Dadian, who was wealthy, went to Jinan Prefecture to take up his post because he was the governor of Shandong.

Xie Lian is the governor of Denglai, and it is his duty to clean up the mess.

He also received benefits worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.

This is just the beginning. There will be plenty of time to deal with gold mine disputes and resolve land ownership.

Xie Lian can also have a lot of gray income.

So he neither dared nor wanted to offend Huang Yi.

Agree to the request Huang Yi asked Liu Yulie to convey.

The Xinghe Army exclusively attacked Dengzhou City, captured all of it, and suffered all casualties.

When the army set off, there were more than 200 wounded soldiers of our own who were unable to move long distances with the army.

These wounded soldiers had to stay in Dengzhou City to recuperate.

There were far more than 200 wounded and sick people. After treating their own wounded soldiers and doing their best to treat their own wounded, Xinghe Army doctors and medical soldiers began to treat the rebel wounded soldiers regardless of the cost.

There are too many wounded soldiers in the rebel army, and it is impossible for them all to be treated. Medical soldiers choose those with a high survival rate and who are less likely to become disabled.

Wounded rebel soldiers who were being treated also had to be screened. Those who were accused of killing for no reason, killing for fun, and maliciously massacred women and children were dragged out and had their heads displayed in public.

In the end, there were more than 200 people with limited mobility who needed to stay in Dengzhou to recuperate.

In order to better take care of the wounded, Huang Yi decided to leave some troops in Dengzhou.

And because Huang Yi selected seven warships and supporting supply ships, firewood boats, sentinel boats, horse boats, wave boats, etc., these warships could not sail away at this time.

Besides, where can I park once I drive away?

The base is in the Bashang grassland outside Guan Guan. There are white clouds floating in the blue sky and horses running under the white clouds.

Therefore, Huang Yi asked Governor Denglai to report the establishment of a water camp garrison, Qianzong.

Part of the soldiers who guard Qianzong are the remaining regular soldiers and auxiliary soldiers of the Xinghe Army, and the rest are of course those who will return from injury.

A total of 360 people were selected to stay.

These people either grew up by the sea or have a taste for water, and more than a hundred and twenty of them can row boats and raise sails.

Some of them are Han Chinese from Liaodong, half are fishermen from Shandong, and more than thirty of them were former canal trackers. Three hundred and sixty regular soldiers and auxiliary soldiers were left, sixty of them were gunners, the rest were mostly infantry musketeers or sword and shield bearers, and there were sixty pikemen.

In the future, these soldiers will have to fight on ships and become young sailors. They will all have to learn to fire cannons, raise sails, row oars, and steer...

Serving on a warship is completely different from fighting on land. There should be no more opportunities to fight in formation.

Sailors must become generalists and be familiar with all operations on the warship.

In the end, you have to select any three sailors from the warship, and they can fire the cannon, raise the sail, and change the course...

It is expected that all the seriously injured people who stayed in Denglai to recuperate will recover from their injuries, but some will remain disabled.

There will be no less than 150 people who can return without any disabilities.

These veterans also have to learn all over again, and those who are not aquatic must start by learning to swim.

The troops remaining in Dengzhou will include 510 veterans who have been on the battlefield.

The number of fully equipped garrison commanders should be about 1,100. What if there is a shortage of half?

If he is an ordinary Ming army general, he can be regarded as honest and courageous if he has half the number of soldiers and horses.

But the standards of the Xinghe Army cannot be compromised!

Recruit and train fishermen, boat people, and trackers, and they must be fully staffed!

Of course, the water camp garrison is appointed by the imperial court. No one will firmly object unless special circumstances arise. Candidates jointly recommended by the military supervisor, governor, and governor have no possibility of being rejected.

Besides, the Xinghe Army had too many beheadings, and they also had the great feat of breaking the city first. Which of their generals you want to promote is a matter of just one sentence.

Huang Yi decided to leave Huang Daquan in Dengzhou to serve as a water camp garrison and garrison Dengzhou Shuicheng.

How did warships train and fight during this period? Huang Yi has information saved on his mobile phone.

There are also several videos of battleships firing.

Huang Yi wrote down the training methods he could think of and taught Huang Daquan step by step.

Mainly teaching Huang Daquan, but Huang Dayong, Huang Dazhi, Zhang Dong and other dozens of young generals also listened with interest.

The naval warfare tactic of large and small warships carrying dozens or hundreds of infantry, using the side of one's own ship to approach the side of the enemy's ship, and soldiers jumping gangs to engage in hand-to-hand combat is outdated.

From now on, firepower is king.

It is no longer the case that the number of infantry carried on the warship is three to four times that of sailors and gunners, waiting to join the gang.

Instead, the warships formed a battle line and violently bombarded the enemy ships until the enemy ships that refused to raise the white flag to surrender burned and sank.

The weight of the twelve-pound artillery produced in the base has been reduced a lot, and the recoil force has been reduced by nearly half. It should be possible to equip every No. 2 Fuchuan-type warship with more than a dozen guns.

This No. 2 Fuchuan model warship is designed with watertight compartments, and its sinking resistance is much better than that of the European Galen ship, but it is a pity that it only has one deck.

Compared with a Galen ship of the same size with two or even three decks, the number of cannons that can be equipped is half or even more.

The Ming Dynasty was a country that did not value sea power. When it had the Zheng He fleet that could dominate the world at that time, it did not expand overseas.

As a result, the Ming Navy had no enemies to fight, so it did not pay attention to firepower.

The main battleship is only equipped with a large general cannon at the bow and stern each capable of firing ten-pound cast iron bullets. There are at most a few large guns or bowl-mouth blunderbuss on both sides of the ship.

If the replacement of ten to eighteen twelve-pound guns in the base area is successful, the warship will have an overwhelming firepower advantage.
