Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 510 The Emperor Visits Macau
A large golden canopy appeared on the coast like a forest of guns, and a giant ship covered in black iron armor also appeared here.

The former is Zhu Youxiao's Luanyi, and this will be Zhu Youxiao's first time to set foot on a Daming steamship to go to sea. Rao, he has also traveled across the ocean, and he is still inexplicably excited, looking at Wanqing who is already his own. In the ocean, heroism suddenly arises in the heart.

The latter is the super giant "Daming" used as a royal ship in the sea. The entire warship is more than thirty feet long, six feet wide, two feet deep in draft, and has a normal displacement and a full load displacement of more than [-] tons. , and adopted the horizontal three-cylinder compound steam engine developed by the Ming Dynasty for the first time as the power supply device, the speed is extremely fast, and the ship is also equipped with a newly developed breech-loading gun, with more than [-] rounds of ammunition, and there are three ship-borne torpedo boats, However, because electricity has not been popularized yet, electrification has not yet caught up, and the searchlight performance is a bit poor, but in this era, it is enough to be worthy of the country's name "Daming".

Gu Sanmazi of the South China Sea Fleet personally acted as the commander of this fleet, and escorted His Majesty Zhu Youxiao. The gunners and sailors were all the best selected from the entire South China Sea Fleet, even Zhu Youxiao and Ning Binluo Ruo Liu Rushi and other entourages also did adaptive training before boarding the warship to avoid seasickness or other discomfort.

On October [-]th, Zhu Youxiao and others boarded the "Daming Ship" one after another through temporary wooden ladders under the respectful escort of Guangdong officials including Qu Shixu, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Lu Jiayu, Governor of Guangdong and Commander-in-Chief of the Fourth Army. ".

As soon as Zhu Youxiao boarded the warship, a yellow dragon national flag was also hoisted on the mast, flying in the sea breeze. Gu Sanmazi stood upright on the deck with a group of officers on the ship, waiting for Zhu Youxiao to review.

Zhu You gave a few instructions from the school, and then accompanied by Gu Sanmazi, he entered the three-story cabin made of the latest composite steel. The cabin was decorated with resplendent resplendent imitation of the Forbidden City Qianqing Palace. No one is allowed to enter unless summoned by His Majesty , while Gu Sanmazi's command room and the sailor's operating room are on the other side. The armor outside the cabin has not been penetrated by any cannon in this era, which is also to ensure sufficient safety for Zhu Youxiao.

"It's too extravagant. Since it's a warship at sea, practicality should be the first priority." Zhu Youxiao looked at the exquisitely carved algae scenery, various mahogany furniture, and various colors of glass and enamel inside, making people dizzy and couldn't help but say Gu Sanmazi After a few words, Gu Sanmazi was quite helpless, and secretly groaned in his heart: "These are all blamed by the Daming Shipping Bureau, why should I carry them."

"Let's go." Compared to enjoying the emperor's life in the cabin, Zhu Youxiao prefers to stand on the deck and blow the sea breeze. Although this will expose him to the sight of enemy ships, but here is the inland sea of ​​Ming Dynasty. If you can't blow the sea breeze here freely enough, then you own this sea area for nothing.

Even so, even Gu Sanmazi, who was born as a pirate, was still a little nervous and followed Zhu Youxiao almost all the time, fearing that a cannonball would fly over from nowhere and attack his Majesty the Emperor.

After Zhu Youxiao issued the departure order, Gu Sanmazi nodded in agreement, then raised his gun and fired a shot into the sky, and then the whistle sounded, and some flag bearers began to wave small flags of various colors to command other auxiliary warships.

The sea wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the warship began to drive slowly, cutting a huge white wave like a snowfield on the calm sea, and then swaying up and down slightly, this giant steel ship left Guangzhou Port.

At this time, two medium-sized steam warships equipped with four machine guns but only one layer of gun muzzle left the port one step ahead of the "Da Ming", driving side by side to open the way for the "Da Ming".

At the same time, the other four warships just started to draw anchor, and they left the port after the "Da Ming" had traveled half a mile, and followed directly behind the "Da Ming", keeping a certain distance all the time.

But at some point, two frigates also appeared on both sides of the "Daming", and it could be seen that the naval fighters on these warships were all elite, skilled in operation, and sharp-eyed.

Some western merchant ships temporarily controlled in the port couldn't help showing surprise. Once upon a time, they should be the ones who dominated the ocean. Now, judging from the scale of the Ming emperor's voyages, there is no royal power in any European country. There is such a scale.

The first stop of this ocean trip was Macau. Basically, before Zhu Youxiao’s “Da Ming” arrived, two cutting-edge frigates first appeared on the left and right wings of Macau port. The two battalions of the Fourth Army of the Army stationed in Macau also rushed to the port to forcefully drive some merchant ships from various countries to other designated docks to prepare enough berths for His Majesty Zhu Youxiao, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

When Zhu Youxiao arrived in Macao, the entire port of Macao had been sorted out, and there was no sign of chaos due to the busy business. Countless western merchant ships crowded into the two narrow harbors in the distance, and the majestic No. The troops of the Fourth Army stood neatly on the port, looking up at Zhu Youxiao on the Daming.

A group of businessmen from various countries temporarily or permanently stationed in Macau also lined up neatly outside the cordon, admiring the demeanor of His Majesty the Ming Emperor.

Zhu Youxiao also came out of the cabin at this time. He hadn't been on a ship for many years. Although he had done adaptation training, he still felt a little dizzy, so he adjusted for a while before coming out.

Seeing countless Western-style buildings lined up along the coast, and under these buildings there are Ming soldiers guarding them, and seeing a row of Western fans kneeling and shivering by the coast, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help asking Gu Sanmazi: "How is this going?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, because the Western Fans are afraid of my Daming steam engine ship, they don't want to find out the secrets of my Daming steam engine all the time. These so-called missionaries are actually undercover agents sent by these Western Fans. According to Macau, today I happened to catch a batch of them, and please send them to Your Majesty."

After Gu Sanmazi said, Zhu Youxiao didn't even think about it, and directly ordered: "All of them will be executed!"

"Order!"

When Zhu Youxiao slowly disembarked from the warship and landed on the coast of Macau, these Western fans were pulled up and driven to the seaside, and then a team of Ming military police raised their guns and fired directly at these Western fans.

Amidst the sound of crackling bullets, these well-dressed pangolins fell into the sea water one after another, floating erratically.

"I protest! Protest! You are too barbaric, you dare to shoot our missionaries, I will propose to Her Majesty the Queen, mobilize my Royal Navy to teach you!"

At this time, Xiyangfan in a cordon suddenly yelled, and Zhu Youxiao looked quite gorgeously dressed, so he asked, "Who is this person?"

"It's Namodo, the envoy of Great Britain, who came to Daming to ask for an explanation and compensation because I shot and killed their tobacco-selling baron. He is currently staying in Macau and is going to Zhaoqing tomorrow to contact the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi."

Gu Sanmazi replied.
