- Coupled with one person's four -body training uniforms, a cotton coat, and cotton hats and cotton gloves, sea soul shirts, socks, cow noses, etc. This is a full -scale silver, or the internal wholesale price. If you go to the market to purchase a single item, you can¡¯t even buy it for fifteen taels!
Jin Ke felt that the young master spent too much on police officers, but Zhao Hao said that we are following the route of having fewer but more elite soldiers, so we should look like elite soldiers.
Thinking about the Galen ship costing two to three hundred thousand taels a piece, the installation fee seems not that expensive
In fact, it¡¯s not bad, because the bulk of the cost is mainly on police robes, belts and leather boots. The soldiers can only wear these three items a few times a month, so the wear and tear is not big. Police officers take good care of them and wear them for five or six years without any problems.
¡° In life at sea, in combat, in training, and in the military camp, where clothes are really consumed, they all wear the ¡°coast police training uniforms¡± that are not very good-looking and very cheap.
????????????????????? However, this piece of clothing, which is called the "Marine Police Training Uniform", is actually not ordinary. The style of this training uniform is similar to the middle coat and trousers worn by rich people, so it is also jokingly called "pajamas worn outside" by sailors, but it is really convenient to climb up and down on the ship without worrying about where the hem is caught. arrive.
The pants are also tucked into the boots, which is very neat and avoids the accident of the trouser legs being stepped on and caught.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: There are secret openings on the left and right sides of the abdomen, with a large pocket sewn inside each, which is very convenient for storing small items and freeing up your hands.
The most commendable thing is their training cloth boots, which are not only made of strong materials and meticulous workmanship, but also have patterns of Eucommia rubber nailed on the soles of the forefoot and rear heel.
The police officers quickly realized the benefits of this thing. It not only makes the soles more wear-resistant, but also anti-slip, making it less likely to fall when running on a wet deck.
Moreover, the toes of the training boots are also covered with a crescent-shaped piece of iron. This can protect the toes of the police officers when they are accidentally hit on their feet when carrying shells or other heavy objects¡ª¡ªduring the voyage, In the era, the largest number of non-combat casualties on ships were foot injuries, just as the largest number of casualties during battles were caused by flying sawdust. It is as unbelievable as it is true, but it is also true.
Although these improvements are small, they can really help the coast guard, reduce their chance of injury, and let the police officers truly feel what Mr. Zhao means by ¡®loving soldiers like sons¡¯.
??~~
Mr. Zhao talked with the police officers with a face filled with joy and asked them what they thought of the newly issued uniforms and what they thought of the ship.
In front of the captain and the captain, the police officers did not dare to say anything even if they had opinions, so they all expressed their satisfaction. If they are forced to criticize the leaders, it means that the leaders are too hard-working and don¡¯t pay attention to rest
Mr. Zhao felt bored for a while. The Chinese people are really like birds, no matter which dynasty they are. Might as well go see something that can't talk.
"Come on, let's go down and have a look." Zhao Hao smiled and pointed to the stairs leading below the deck. It is shameful to say that he had never been on either the Science No. or Chen Huaixiu's Pingjiang No. because he thought it was dark and smelly below the deck. Hearing that there were four levels of space under the deck of the 101 ship, Mr. Zhao finally became interested.
??Go down the stairs to the first floor below. The height of this floor is a little over 1.75 meters. Mr. Zhao has to bend his waist to avoid bumping his head It's not that he is tall, it's mainly because of the height of his shoes and bun.
¡°It¡¯s really painful for someone like Brother Gao who is over 1.8 meters tall he has to bend his waist the whole time.
"However, most of the soldiers were generally malnourished when they were young, and their height was not as high as Mr. Zhao's. Most of them are around 1.6 meters tall, so although they definitely feel cramped, they can still make do with passing people.
¡°Compared with being cramped, the bigger problem is darkness and lack of air flow. Zhao Hao felt that the prison where Xu Wei lived was brighter and had better air than here.
¡°There is no other way. If it is a merchant ship or cargo ship, you can open a few portholes on the bulkhead for ventilation and light. But this is a warship where safety is the top priority. If you open a porthole, what should you do if the enemy throws a kerosene can into it when docking? Moreover, the ship needed to be fireproof, and no torches were lit. Only a few ship lanterns hung on the long bulkheads were glowing dimly.
Boat lanterns are filled with water and will go out if they fall to the ground. But to ensure safety, the brightness of this thing is limited.
Zhao Hao immediately thought that he could purchase a batch of coal kiln ventilation equipment from Xishan Company to solve the problem of turbid air, but he could only talk about it next time.
This floor is where middle and lower-level police officers and police officers live. Zeng Yiben obviously didn't care about the accommodation conditions of his men. It turned out that every cabin here was a warehouse. The sailors sleep on the deck when the weather is fine in the summer, and spend the rest of the night in the warehouse on this floor.When cats live, rope piles, canvas piles, and cargo boxes are their natural beds, so they have a high incidence of various skin diseases such as eczema.
¡°And when a sailor falls asleep, he will roll around with the ups and downs of the waves. Some unlucky ones may even break their necks and die.
¡°In fact, we can¡¯t blame Zeng Yiben harshly, because the same happened to European sailors. It wasn't until they introduced hammocks from the Indians that the sailors finally had a bed. At least they had fewer skin diseases and didn't have to worry about rolling around after falling asleep.
Mr. Zhao made a hammock at the beginning of the year. Elder Niu, who was in charge of shipbuilding, tried it and it worked well, so he installed it on all the ships.
This Wanhuo Wuwei boat is no exception. After arriving at the Jiangnan Shipyard, Elder Niu led people to carry out modifications and divide the cabin into thirty rooms of different sizes. There are two police officers in one room and six police officers in one room. They have installed hammocks, wardrobes and lockers, and boat lights are installed in each room. The conditions have been greatly improved.
¡°But with six people crowded into a small room measuring 15 square meters and 1.7 meters high, Zhao Hao felt that it was still quite uncomfortable.
"But the accommodation problem of the sailors will not be solved in three hundred years. Mr. Zhao can do this now.
¡°However, what makes Zhao Hao a little ashamed is that the police officers seem to be very satisfied with the current accommodation conditions. Especially those former Shachuan Gang sailors were full of praise, and some even called it the ¡®101 Hotel¡¯. I really don¡¯t know how bad the previous conditions will be?
¡°And you can see through the dim light that the interior of each cabin is kept very clean. Everything is where it should be, the hammocks are stored on the wall, there is no debris on the floor, and even the wooden walls are polished.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Strict requirements for internal affairs to nitpicking, and some even deliberately torment police officers, but it is a good way to shape military discipline and execution ability. The so-called "People's Liberation Army quilts, U.S. military shoes, and French shirts with fourteen pleats" are all based on this principle.
In fact, it was the Royal Navy of Dayang that first started to impose strict requirements on internal affairs. Not out of any aristocratic mentality, but to maintain public and personal hygiene on the ship when out at sea. This is very important, because there are often rats on ships, and there are also lice, bed bugs, fleas, etc. that are more annoying than rats, spreading various diseases such as rash, typhoid, plague, etc., causing non-combat casualties, and even directly killing people. The battleship lost combat effectiveness.
The captain of Dayang discovered that the best way to deal with these pests is to order sailors to maintain ship and personal hygiene. In addition to daily hygiene, they will also conduct regular cleaning, clean up domestic garbage, discharge sewage from the bilges, and spread lime, sulfur powder, etc. everywhere to reduce the chance of infectious diseases.

After visiting the first floor where the soldiers stayed, it was even more difficult to go down to the next floor. Because the lower three floors do not have direct access to the deck, but are divided into cellar-like watertight compartments with partitions. However, the advantage of this is that if one or two tanks leak, there will be no danger of the ship sinking.
Lifting the covers on the ground floor of the negative level revealed the cabins below. There are ammunition compartments, tool compartments, spare parts compartments, and most importantly, food compartments.
Brother Haier told Zhao Hao that although this was considered an offshore voyage, considering the many uncertainties of the battle, there was no confirmed supply port in Japan, so supplies should be prepared according to the one-month voyage standard.
One of the warehouses is filled with rice, noodles, millet and other grains. A warehouse is filled with various shelf-stable non-staple foods such as bacon, smoked fish, ham, and pickles. There is also a warehouse filled with various shelf-stable vegetables such as winter melon, white radish, carrots, and cabbage.
There was also a food warehouse, which was actually filled with stacks of futon-sized food. Zhao Hao picked one up and held it under the light to see clearly. It turned out to be my country's traditional military rations - pot helmets.
¡°The sea is often very windy and rough, and the kitchens don¡¯t dare light fires, so we have to prepare dry food so that everyone can¡¯t go hungry.¡± Helge explained.
"Well, that makes sense." Zhao Hao nodded, thinking that he could still be used as a shield at critical moments.
As for the fresh fruits, vegetables and meat that were just delivered today, they were all sent to the kitchen on the lower level of the bow. In the first few days at sea, the sailors' food was always the best. Not only was it rich in variety, but it was also open to the public. Because these things will rot in a few days, it is better to eat them all than to waste them.
The third floor below are all filled with fresh water tanks. Everyone knows that drinking water is much more important than food on the sea. If the water is cut off or the water is polluted, the entire ship will be destroyed. However, if fresh water is stored in the water tank for up to half a month, it will become covered with green moss, breed water bugs, and give off an unpleasant sewer smell. Not only is it unpleasant to drink, it can easily cause diarrhea and dysentery.
The experience of the Shachuan Gang is to boil the water before loading it on the ship. When drinking, boil the water and add some tea leaves and salt, and the situation will be much better. However, the Shachuan Gang operates on inland rivers and offshore waters, so I don¡¯t know if this experience can be effective in the ocean.
Fortunately, going to Japan is considered offshore. I can¡¯t say about other supplies. There should be no shortage of fresh water.
Below the water tank is the fourth floor, which is equipped with ballast stones to prevent the warship from shaking or even capsizing in wind, waves and when firing.
