After Huang Zhong and other Japanese garrison officers boarded the steamship, they were just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, full of magic and shock!

Under the guidance of bachelors from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, they finally became familiar with the operation of these steamships.

Then, just like a child getting a favorite toy, he couldn't put it down and started testing it.

"Woo woo——"

To everyone's surprise, the steamboat started moving again, and then cruised in the waters around the Japanese island of Kyushu.

The ten warships raced against each other on the ocean like stumbling children who had just learned to walk.

Huang Zhong even ordered the soldiers to test the cannon! These giant steel ships,"297"

, will be their future mobile stations and steel fortresses on the ocean. They must become familiar with them carefully. boom! boom! Boom -

On the ten steamships, dozens of cannons were fired one after another, and the roar that resounded through the sky shocked the Japanese natives on the shore!

Some of those shells fell into the water and exploded like a tsunami!

Some bombarded the rocks on the edge of some islands, causing debris to scatter and the sea water to churn!

It looks very scary, like a natural disaster, and daunting!

This is the cannon that swept across their Japanese country. They still remember it fresh and have lingering fears!

On the contrary, Gao Lan and other Han army officers had long been accustomed to it, and they looked at the sight of dozens of cannons firing on top of the ten battleships with admiration.

"The battleship shook so slightly, it was indeed a giant steel ship made of steel!"Gao Lan nodded with pleasure.

Although they had conducted sea trials at the beginning, they did not fire dozens of cannons as generously as Huang Zhong. Even though the technological level of the Han Dynasty has advanced by leaps and bounds, its economic strength and military strength have been greatly improved. Growth.

But this kind of cannon bombarding the sea for purposeless testing is also a bit extravagant and wasteful.

However, as the governor of Northeast China and a powerful figure in the army, Huang Zhong is qualified to be so wasteful, as long as he is happy!

Huang Zhong and other soldiers are like children , I got my beloved toy, and after playing with it for a long time, I just returned home with some unfinished thoughts.

"General Gao, I am very satisfied with these steamships! Huang

Zhong was overjoyed and said with a smile:"There is no need to use sails. The soldiers can control it more easily."

And with the power of steam, it can easily cruise on the ocean, saving manpower and material resources.

Didn't His Majesty say that the other side of the Pacific Ocean is the American continent? Now that we have this steamship, we should be qualified to explore!"

When Huang Zhong talked about the American continent, Pang Tong, who had been smiling silently and not interrupting, finally spoke at the right time.

"General Huang, I studied in Beijing Normal University. I do know a little bit about the American continent.

We don't need to cross the Pacific, we just need to continue up and land in North America through the Bering Strait.

Now that it is bordered by land, the difficulty of exploration will actually be greatly reduced! This made Huang Zhong overjoyed!

Xu Huang and other generals were also pleasantly surprised:"Prefect Pang, why didn't you tell me earlier?"" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"It’s useless to tell you earlier! Pang

Tong spread his hands and said with a smile:

"Our development and construction of the Japanese country has not yet ended, and we have no extra energy to explore the American continent.

Now, in addition to getting the steamship, it is also because our development and construction of the Japanese country has begun to bear fruit, and we can continue to go north!"

All the soldiers are also overjoyed!

Opening up new territories is one of the soldiers' wishes.....

It is also one of the ways for them to obtain military merit.

They are eager to continue exploring unknown areas, gain military honors, become generals, and make contributions in the future!

"Is this Prefect Pang? Gao

Lan looked Pang Tong up and down and said with a slight smile:

"I have heard a little bit in the capital that this time the governor team composed of Cheng Yu and Man Chong also spoke highly of Governor Pang!"

Cheng Yu and Man Chong's team of governors had already visited the Japanese country for inspection a long time ago.

Therefore, Gao Lan had heard about Pang Tong's evaluation when he came out of the capital.

If Gao Lan's prediction was good, this time Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and other scholars should be at the forefront of the"internship" operation of Jinshi!

This means that

Pang Tong's position as prefect will be more solid, and he may even be promoted to a higher position, and he will enter the center of the imperial court in the future. The three princes are all possible!

After all, the current three princes Guo Jia, Xun You and Xun Yu also speak highly of Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Lu Xun and other scholars!

It is very likely that they are treated and trained as successors

"General Gao is serious!"2.3

Pang Tong bowed respectfully and said with a slight smile:

"General Gao is brave and resourceful, and we admired his illustrious military exploits when he accompanied His Majesty in the south and north.

I never had the chance to meet, but now I finally got my wish!"

The people carrying the sedan chair were carrying people, and Gao Lan asked kindly. Pang Tong naturally would not agree foolishly without knowing how to return the favor.

Huang Zhong interrupted with a smile:"General Gao, we will take care of you first. When we arrive, Wouldn't it be nice to have a good time drinking and talking about the past and present?"

"Hahaha, that’s fine!"Gao Lan also felt a little hungry.
