    Fukudaura.

    Ma Yinglong directed the Coast Guard members to be busy all morning before completing tasks such as prisoner custody, ship takeover, and material inventory.

    Wang Rulong, together with several captains and several combat officers from the staff office, were busy formulating the next combat plan in the large conference room of the flagship. The initial combat plan had already completed the most urgent one, capturing Gai.  Lun ship.  There are also two items that need to be achieved by eliminating the Matsuura Party to establish its authority and helping the Tamna Chamber of Commerce to monopolize trade with Japan.

    Speaking of which, these two things are actually indistinguishable from each other.  In the Age of Discovery, war and trade were like twins, always closely linked.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? In a force with a strong mercantilism flavor like the Jiangnan Group, it will be easier to have a unified understanding - loss-making transactions are not allowed, especially in war.  If a war cannot bring positive benefits, it is a harmful war and must be resolutely avoided.

    The purpose of Mr. Zhao¡¯s establishment of a staff office in the garrison area is to conduct quantitative management of the war.

    The task of the Staff Office is to formulate plans for all wars and calculate the expenses and benefits of the entire campaign and each battle.  This is to prevent commanders from overheating, blindly expanding the scale of war, raising war costs, and reducing war benefits.

    Of course, Zhao Hao also took into account the lack of experience in the early days of the establishment of the General Staff Office, which made it easy to make random plans and lose touch with reality.  For example, blindly asking to save ammunition, being too conservative or radical, will instead bring the fleet he has worked so hard to build into a ditch.  So he first asked Wang Rulong to serve as chief of staff and make plans for himself, so he wouldn't tie himself up or overestimate his capabilities, right?

    As for the future, let¡¯s wait until the staff office is up and running first

    ??~~

    Mr. Zhao had a leisurely night's sleep in the morning.  In fact, he has always been very leisurely. Since he promised Wang Rulong not to give random orders, of course he must mean what he says.  From the perspective of a good boss who never creates trouble, Mr. Zhao is simply the best boss in the world.

    He slept until 11:30 when Secretary Ma woke him up and left him to wash and dress at her mercy.  It wasn't until I came out of the bedroom and sat down at the dining table outside that I regained my energy.

    There was still some time before dinner. Mr. Zhao drank hot milk and chatted with his eldest nephew In order to ensure the growth and development of the young man, Wang Rulong specially asked Brother Haier to raise his head on the flagship.  dairy cow.  The group is tied to the young master, and if he has a strong body, it is a blessing for everyone.

    The eldest nephew naturally has milk to drink, but he is just writing and drawing with his head down and has no time to drink milk.

    "Are you trying to improve the rocket?" Zhao Hao picked up a piece of paper and looked at the sketch on it.

    "Yes, uncle." The eldest nephew came to Zhao Hao to determine the research direction.  Although he felt that he still had some talent in weapon design, he felt that compared with his respected uncle, Mr. Wang met Wang Mazi, he was far behind.

    On every road of invention and creation that goes astray, his uncle is his beacon when he is lost, the beacon that guides him in the right direction!

    Zhao Shizhen has become accustomed to asking his uncle if this is right whenever he comes up with a new idea. This will not only avoid many detours, but also allow him to continue to obtain crucial new inspirations.

    "After watching these two battles, I feel that the Thunder God rocket has great potential." Zhao Shizhen said eagerly: "This thing has a fast firing rate and is flexible. If the range and accuracy can be improved, it will be a powerful supplement to the artillery.  !¡±

    "Hmm." Zhao Hao smiled and nodded. It was no surprise that Zhao Shizhen had such a view.

    In another time and space, the British improved the Congreve rocket based on the Ming Dynasty iron-shell rocket. Once equipped, it was widely used in the Napoleonic Wars, and its several appearances were very successful.

    Afterwards, under the personal command of Congreve, the British Navy launched about 25,000 rockets towards Copenhagen, almost burning the city to white ground and forcing Denmark to surrender.  During the Battle of Leipzig in 1812, the British rocket launcher unit in the Swedish army scattered a group of French troops "like an ant pile" with a single fierce shot.

    What makes the Chinese people lament is that the British army also used a large number of such rockets in the two Opium Wars to attack military camps and burn down cities, which frightened the Qing army.  In the Battle of Baliqiao, Seng Gelinqin's Mongolian cavalry was defeated by the "Hongyi Firearms" that roared and flew towards them with red tail flames It can only be said that it is your own fault that you deserve to die.  !

    Such a sharp firearm will naturally attract the attention of a firearms genius like Zhao Shizhen who has been around for hundreds of years.

    Of course, the shortcomings of this kind of rocket are also obvious - first, it has low accuracy and does not hit the surface.  Second, its trajectory is weird. Once the wind direction changes, it may come back and hurt your own people.Don't be picky, this time has greatly exceeded expectations!  "Wang Rulong, a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for a long time, will naturally not be pretentious, and said casually: "Originally, according to the estimation of the staff office, this battle would have to involve dozens of brothers.  "

    "This is because the enemy did not fire. Secondly, after all the guns were replaced with bronze cannons, it is much safer to fire. The cannons were fired so fiercely last night that they only exploded two cannons and no one was hurt!" As he said this, he stretched out his bear paws.  He patted Zhao Shizhen's back hard with his big hand and said with a big smile:

    "You, the artillery king, have done a great job!"

    Zhao Shizhen almost let him go into the soup basin, rubbing his back and smiling bitterly.

    Mr. Zhao almost laughed out loud. Even with the title of eldest nephew, he had to find more Japanese women for him!

    ps. I took my son to see "My Hometown and Me" today. It was really good, worth the price, and a great benefit.  In addition, so the second update is only half written now (remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
