The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 124 Naval War Preparation
Chen Ziming discussed with the Zhang family of Zhen's family for three days, and finally worked out a strict business cooperation terms, which is very beneficial to both parties.

In fact, it is also very simple, that is, Chen Ziming sells rice paper and rice paper-bound notepads and books to the Zhen family at a low price, and charges a northern sales agency fee every quarter.

The so-called agency fee is very scary. It is definitely not something that small businesses can afford. Moreover, the agency fee is not dead. The agency fee is paid at the beginning of each season, and then the corresponding products can be obtained.

Chen Ziming set the agency fees into several levels, and correspondingly, the products for the Zhen family were also divided into several levels.

"Mr. Ziming, it's really a pity that you don't go into business." At this time, Mrs. Zhang's evaluation of Chen Ziming, because she was shrewd in business, did not take advantage of her share, so she had to look at Chen Ziming with admiration.

With the leadership of the Zhen family, several big businessmen from other places also came to discuss business cooperation with Chen Ziming. In the end, Chen Ziming chose several agents in each state, and each businessman could only represent one product of Linzi. .

For example, rice paper, including notepads, books and other products related to rice paper, and then wine. Linzi's wine became famous all over the world after Liu Bei's wedding, and all princes and clans demanded to buy it. It is definitely a hot-selling product.

For a while, Linzi became the real commercial center of the Han Dynasty, and its prosperity was definitely not comparable to any city. It brought Liu Bei terrible income every quarter, allowing Liu Bei's power to develop rapidly.

"Report!"

"Military division, the navy is urgent!"

At the end of October, Chen Ziming had finished what he needed to do. Chen Ziming, who either ran to find Cai Yan all day, or slept soundly at home, suddenly received an urgent report from the Navy that had not heard anything for a long time.

"Finally found it?" Chen Ziming looked at the Navy Express with the encrypted seal in his hand, and ran to Liu Bei excitedly.

"What, Ziming, you mean, Xingba found a big island in the sea, a big island comparable to the land of Qingzhou!?" Liu Bei listened to Chen Ziming's narration, and looked at Chen Ziming excitedly and in disbelief.

"Yes, big brother, it's a big island comparable to the area of ​​Qingzhou, and there are only some wild tribes on the island, who have no combat power." Chen Ziming is also very excited now, of course he knows where the so-called big island is.

It was the island that raised a group of beasts. When the opportunity came, Chen Ziming decided not to let a certain disgusting nation appear in history, so as not to pollute history.

"Ziming, how many troops and how long will it take to take it down?" Liu Bei's eyes flickered, and he asked Chen Ziming seriously.

Occupying that unknown island, which is comparable to the island of Qingzhou, is a truly shocking event of expanding the territory, how could Liu Bei not take it seriously.

"According to the Naval Express, the island is very large, but there is no army stationed on the island, and now there are no iron weapons. It only needs 2 horses to easily occupy the island." Regarding Washima in this period, It's really not difficult at all to beat it.

"attack!"

Liu Bei only said one word, and Chen Ziming hurriedly packed his luggage and headed for Linqu Military Port. For such a big event, Liu Bei or Chen Ziming must go to the town.

Liu Bei's goal is too big, and there are too many people staring at him. Chen Ziming is used to running around when he has nothing to do. The navy was also established by Chen Ziming. It's normal to visit occasionally, but it won't make people suspicious.

The navy is no secret to the princes from all walks of life. There are many spies in Qingzhou, but they don't know why Liu Bei has to spend money and money to build a navy that is terrible.

Both Chen Ziming and Liu Bei agree that the navy can let all the princes know, but the territory on the sea must be kept secret, and there must be no leaks, otherwise Liu Bei will immediately become the target of all the princes.

Because if Liu Bei is allowed to build a super empire comparable to the Han Dynasty on the sea, who else is Liu Bei's opponent.

"The order is to control all those who know about this matter, and they cannot have any contact with the outside world." Chen Ziming issued the sealing order as soon as he arrived at the Linqu Naval Station.

"Military commander, don't worry, I personally led people to discover that island. Now all the soldiers who are going with me are waiting on the boat, and there will be absolutely no leaks." Gan Ning also knew the seriousness of the matter, and he ordered Warships do not dock, and all supplies are dispatched.

"Xingba, the lord has an order to occupy it and expand the territory!" Chen Ziming gave the order to capture and occupy Gan Ning.

"If!" Gan Ning responded excitedly, he had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

Since the establishment of the navy, everyone in the Liu Bei Group has had a lot of opinions on this ineffective but costly navy.

Although Gan Ning's martial arts are superb and his combat power is extraordinary, he still doesn't get the approval of his colleagues, because Gan Ning's military expenditure accounts for more than half of the military expenditure. , how many war horses can be purchased, how many siege equipment can be produced, etc.

So Gan Ning has been holding his breath, he and his navy need a chance to show their role, to let his colleagues agree.

Gan Ning wants to let everyone know that their navy is not useless, they are the sharp blade in Liu Bei's hands, and they are definitely Liu Bei's trump card troops.

The navy led by Gan Ning should thank Liu Bei and Chen Ziming. The navy was established by Chen Ziming, and Liu Bei also supported the development of the navy under the pressure of a group of generals.

It can be said that without Liu Bei and Chen Ziming, it is absolutely impossible for this navy to be established, and they also need a contribution to repay Liu Bei and Chen Ziming.

"Tell me, what is the current size of the navy?" Although Chen Ziming pays close attention to the development of the navy at all times, the specific situation depends on Gan Ning, the chief admiral of the navy.

"The navy now has [-] soldiers, of which [-] are warship manipulators, and [-] are capable of fighting, both on land and sea!
There are nine warships with three sails, all of which can sail far from the coast. Each can hold two thousand soldiers and horses, and can sail continuously at sea for ten days.There are 68 offshore warships, which can only be used for offshore combat or training, and cannot be far from the coast.

A naval logistics support team of 2 people has also been established, which is also a reserve for naval soldiers. With a little training, they can become real naval officers and soldiers. "Gan Ning raised his head and reported to Chen Ziming proudly.

Today's Liu Bei Navy is already a real navy, with complete independent combat capabilities, thanks to Chen Ziming, who planned and formed it entirely by Chen Ziming.

He has provided the navy with a lot of useful opinions and suggestions, especially for special troops such as the logistics support team, which is available in every unit of Liu Bei, but for the navy, the number of this logistics support team is still too small.
