    Emperor Hongzhi visited almost every location on the ship.

    Oh, it turns out that the sail is not raised because there is no need to rely on wind power for the time being. This time, we want to try the power of steam power.

    ¡°Alsoit turns out that ships can also use inertia to sail to a certain extent. When the boilers are fired up at first, the ship is slow. When it gradually picks up speed, the speed may be further accelerated.

    There were also those strong men in the boiler room, all of them were shirtless, but they were covered in sweat, and their skin turned white as if they had been steamed by sweat.

    Helmsmen, you need to study the charts, and sea-going ships must have a relatively fixed route, because unknown waters and unknown hydrology are prone to the risk of running aground, of course, especially in offshore waters.

    ? And sailing in the distant seas mostly relies on ocean currents.

    There is also wind power, which is limited because the wind direction can change at any time.

    besides¡­¡­

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at these sailors and sailors in the turbulence. He felt unsteady even standing here and his head was a little dizzy, but they all performed their duties tirelessly.

    It¡¯s really not easy.

    Emperor Hongzhi sighed in his heart.

    It can be imagined that those who traveled across the ocean experienced many hardships on the way across the ocean.

    The voyage to the West was a national policy. With his own decree, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of people changed their lives and destiny, but he almost ignored them.

    Fang Jifan also started to chat: "Your Majesty, if the sea trial is completed, I sincerely request that the Ming Dynasty need to organize a large-scale steamship fleet."

    "Hmm." Emperor Hongzhi thought thoughtfully: "It must cost a lot of money."

    Fang Jifan gritted his teeth and said, "I heard that the Francois have a fleet, known as the Invincible Fleet. They travel across the seas and are full of evil."

    From Fang Jifan's perspective, this is no longer a sin.

    Emperor Hongzhi became cautious: "Really? After the sea trial, please come up with the charter. Among all the ministers, who can take charge of this fleet?"

    "If your majesty believes in my son, my disciple Tang Yin has experience in commanding the navy before. It is most safe for him to train the personnel and take charge of the fleet."

    Emperor Hongzhi heard Fang Jifan mention the word "believe".

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled bitterly, your father died in the battle thousands of miles away, and you, Fang Jifan, are my son-in-law. You, Fang Jifan, have trained the emperor's grandson to be both civil and military, which is impressive.  You, Fang Jifan, amassed wealth in Xishan and gave so many shares to me and the prince for nothing. This guy has offended countless people for the New Deal. If you say that you still have no trust in him, then there are others in this world.  Who can be trusted.

    Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Tang Yin is a man who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. He can be of great use."

    He looked pleased. In any case, Fang Jifan was finally willing to communicate normally. This was an excellent sign.

    Emperor Hongzhi continued: "These Francois deserve to be damned. They dare to claim to be invincible. In the whole world, are they not the king's land? Are they the king's ministers, rebellious ministers and traitors? Sure enough, everyone will punish them.  Fan, does this fleet have a ship name?"

    As soon as he said it, Emperor Hongzhi regretted it.

    Let Fang Jifan choose the name, this is like a car accident scene.

    Fang Jifan tilted his head: "We, the Ming Dynasty, stand in the east, our country is in heaven, and a mere Franji dares to claim to be undefeated. It is really treason. I thought of a name for the fleet specially designed to restrain them. We might as well call it Dongfang Undefeated.  They are invincible and we are invincible. The name of this fleet is just like this fleet. It is His Majesty's magical weapon. We are looking for opponents from all over the world and only want to be defeated. But, no matter what, we are unrivaled in the world, so we have no choice but to be undefeated."

    This name is too arrogant.

    It is not in line with the spirit of Emperor Hongzhi.

    ¡°However Emperor Hongzhi was actually relieved. In any case, this name has far exceeded his expectations for his successor.

    "This is much more normal than the reputations of "Wang Bushi, the scum of the world," and "Xiao Zhu Xiucai, the bad guy". The previous ones were like coming out of a lunatic asylum.

    People, sometimes they are a bit mean.

    Even the emperor of tomorrow is not exempt from vulgarity.

    When someone breaks through the lower limit in his heart again and again, even if it is just a slightly normal name, Emperor Hongzhi can get a little psychological comfort, and then, he will give birth, and it will grow up, and it will make people look at him with admiration.  Such strange psychology.

    ????, how about giving it a try first?  If it really doesn¡¯t work, why not build more sailboats? For the same pricethe price of sailboats is much lower"

    Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly.

    He found that these people still had the same thoughts as when they were in the past, and he didn't have the same thoughts at the beginning.

    But what Ma Wensheng said is not unreasonable. This steamship is serious

    But at this moment, someone boarded the ship and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty"

    When Emperor Hongzhi saw a eunuch, he was out of breath. He glanced sideways at the eunuch: "What's the matter?"

    "Your Majesty, an express report has been sent from Dengzhou."

    Dengzhou¡­¡­

    People looked surprised, what could happen to Dengzhou?

    "Those ships, which had escaped from the Ningbo navy, went all the way north, attacked Dengzhou, defeated the Dengzhou Beiwawei water stronghold, and then looted everything and flew away."

    Phew

    Dengzhou was not the focus of Ming Dynasty¡¯s prevention, especially after the Japanese pirates subsided.

    "Those Francois, who had been asking Emperor Hongzhi to summon him but failed, went all the way north, and actually took this opportunity to show off their power.

    Then think about it again, the invincible fleet attacked Xinjin. Is this another premeditated plan by the Francois? From Dengzhou to Xinjin, this is a warning to the Ming Dynasty. Could the implication mean that the Ming Dynasty  If we touch the ocean again, the consequences will be even more severe.

    Emperor Hongzhi looked miserable and said sternly: "Where is the pirate ship?"

    "We are already far away, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
