Chapter 271 Navy

Kangxi heard the slightest head of the navy. He took the royal family, princes and ministers, nobles of the Eight Banners, nobles of aristocratic families, and children of gentry and wealthy families as the backbone. He did not have to worry that the navy would lose control. This method was not. He glanced at Yinzhen with appreciation before he took the note. "《》. (., "《》)

When he opened it, Kangxi couldn't help but be stunned. On the list of requests, Dai Zi was listed first, with the artillery researcher behind it, and the subsequent personnel were also marked, all of which were researchers or chief officials from various military factories and workshops. [.]

The second part is the navy soldiers. The ones at the forefront are Wu Ge and Yande, followed by Delga, Liu Zhisheng, Lin Wei... Kangxi looked at it roughly and was very strange. Why did Dai Zi be listed as the first meritorious person?"

Yinzhen expected that Kangxi would have such a question, so he replied calmly that the Navy could achieve such a record with the minimum casualties in the battle of Penghu, and relied on the achievements of improved artillery. As the main researcher of the improved artillery, Dai Zi made the first contribution in this battle. Other personnel engaged in casting, iron smelting, and ammunition research also made great contributions. Without them, there would be no improved artillery of high quality, and there would be no great victory in the Navy's Penghu.

The navigation and shipbuilding technology of the Western countries is changing with each passing day. They are also closely involved in the improvement of cannons and muskets. Although the Qing Dynasty is ahead, we cannot stand still, otherwise it will be easy to be overtaken by the Western countries.

If artillery is behind, it will be passively beaten. The Spanish fleet is a lesson for the past. If the Qing Dynasty wants to be far ahead in weapons such as artillery, it must pay attention to the research and improvement of artillery. It must pay attention to these personnel engaged in artillery-related research. Only with the advanced weapons can the Qing Dynasty be invincible.

In the early stage, the relevant research on artillery can be made through the progress made by these craftsmen. The more they improve it, the more difficult it will be. A large number of scholars with related mathematical knowledge can participate in it to make progress. At present, naval artillery has encountered problems such as rifling angles, integrated ammunition, and excessive loss.

The son-in-law made this move to encourage these people through the rewards made by Emperor Ama, so as to attract more scholars with relevant knowledge, hobbies, specialties and interests to participate, accelerate and increase the improvement of artillery.

These people value fame and reputation. They are good at research in their respective industries. It is not possible to be an official. My sons think that the emperor is rewarded with a false title and improve their status. In this way, it will inevitably attract more and more scholars to participate in the research on improving firearms."

After listening to Yinzhen's long speech, Kangxi slowly walked up in the hall. This was not a simple reward. The so-called researchers in the old fourteen were actually craftsmen. This reward would inevitably cause an uproar. The social status of scholars, farmers, workers, merchants and craftsmen was low and were still ranked below farmers. This reward would cause great shock and response in the officialdom in Shilin and the officialdom. Not to mention scholars, even civil servants could be awarded titles.

If you don’t give rewards, what Lao Si Fourteen said makes sense. The advanced artillery is directly related to the victory or defeat of the war. The reward may lead to the collapse of the ceremony and the music. Kangxi walked for a long time but couldn’t make up his mind. He couldn’t help but smile and said to the researcher’s rewards. When Tianjin offered prisoners, he had watched the military exercise before talking about it. However, it was the rewards of the navy soldiers. What suggestions do you have?"

Seeing that Kangxi had temporarily suspended the rewards of researchers, Yinzhen was slightly disappointed and could only make another chance to make suggestions in the future. He cheered up and said that the navy was first established and suddenly had a high position, which was suspected of boosting the growth of seedlings, and he also wanted to leave room for future rewards. However, the current situation is special, so we should use this as a weather standard to attract many nobles. Everyone's children come to vote, and it is not enough to be low. My sons secretly thought it was better to be at the third and fourth ranks."

"That's too petty. This is a great victory in the national war. Wu Ge and Yande were awarded the deputy generals, Delga, Liu Zhisheng and Lin Wei as the generals, and so on." Kangxi said with a smile and said that he would not be awarded the title for the time being. He would perform the merits after the battle."

After walking leisurely for a few steps, Kangxi continued the establishment of the navy. I thought about it and followed the naval system. The structure was a little smaller. Then the new naval department was established under the Ministry of War. You are still responsible. Tianjin's fleet was changed to Beiyang Fleet, and Shanghai's fleet was changed to Nanyang Fleet. You should consider it yourself. Tianjin's Navy, Chongming, Fujian, and Guangdong Navy are all under the name of the Navy. You will be commanded and mobilized by you in a unified manner, which will also facilitate the abolition in the future."

Yinzhen was quite excited before, but when he heard it, he turned into a bitter smile. Tianjin Navy, Chongming Navy, Fujian Navy, Guangdong Navy had more than 70,000 officers and soldiers. Kangxi actually pushed the navy all the way. He hurriedly asked Emperor Ama, the navy's military pay..."

"Of course, you, the Minister of Navy." Kangxi turned around and sat down cross-legged, and smiled and said, "You can fight a war, it will be enough for the navy to eat for ten years, so I can cry for less. "As he said, he took a sip of tea, smiled faintly and said that he would fight this battle well. If he defeated Spain, he would be able to return to Beijing with peace of mind. You should also experience the court."

Experience the court! Yinzhen was stunned. What did Kangxi mean? Are you planning to become the crown prince? He didn't play secretly and appointed a crown prince? He didn't dare to think too much, so he quickly stood up and left his seat, knelt down and thanked Emperor Ama Long for his kindness. My son must do his best to show the power of our Qing army!"

Prince Lian’s Mansion.

After hearing the detailed report of the ninth prince Yinzhen, the eighth prince Yinsi couldn't help but frown and said to himself that since the fourteenth brother said that the wealth and water would not flow from outsiders, he would join forces with us to deal with the fourth brother. Why did he support the fourth brother's stall in the court again?"

Lao Shi curled his lips and said yesterday that Lao Shi Si was in the palace. He must know that Emperor Ama supports the stall to earn a sum of money. This is what he likes to vote for Emperor Ama, is it so strange?"

"How could the tenth brother think so simple?" Yinsi smiled and said, "It's difficult to promote the taxi to earn acres, but it's of great significance. Once it is successfully implemented, the fourth brother's contribution will be too great, enough to make the emperor look at him with admiration. The fourteenth brother will not be unable to see this, but will add fuel to the fire. There must be something strange about it."

"Don't bother to think about it," said the old ninth emperor, and said that the old fourteen always likes to go against the odds in his work. We can't guess what he thinks in his heart. Just look at how he gives us advice to determine whether his words and deeds are consistent."

Yinsi nodded, pondered and said that what the Ninth Brother said was reasonable, and wait calmly first. If the Fourteenth True really stretched out, our relationship with the Fourteenth Party in the future will have to be carefully considered.
