Chapter 293 Not afraid of burning money

As Han Tuozhou's aide, Su Shidan has been following Han Tuozhou for a while. Han Tuozhou has been here for two months since he arrived at Xiayi Island. The reason why Han Tuozhou refused to leave was not because of his deep affection with Zhao Han, but because his recent actions around Japan have entered a critical stage. Han Tuozhou is devoted to this. With the spirit of focusing on participation, Han Tuozhou is also one of the important supporters behind the scenes.

Longjiu had already arrived at Xiayi Island. Because the sea around Sakhalin Island has a three-month freezing period a year, he left Sakhalin Island and came to Xiayi Island. As an important role in the Killing Japanese drama, Longjiu is one of the indispensable roles in this operation. As you know, in a big drama, in addition to those who sing black faces, of course, there are also white faces. Longjiu is the one who wants to perform the entire martial arts show to a certain extent, so he must not be trapped in Sakhalin Island because of the freezing. Last month, Longjiu rushed to Xiayi Island.

"Mr. Long, look, the harbors here in Hakodate are full of Japanese ships confiscated, and there are too many! The people below told me that the Japanese boats were dilapidated and worthless, and there was no place to be parked when they were collected. Otherwise, you just say to the King Yelu, and the Japanese boats would not be collected. At least they had to board a twenty-ton boat. It would be useful to collect them. Are you right?"

Since Liu Wenbin led four ships to defeat the Japanese fleet, the action plan has been upgraded. Originally, he was the main focus of capturing strong men and capturing ships as a supplement, but since then, he has become the main focus of capturing Japanese ships, and capturing strong men has become the second. But in this way, the bad ships were captured, and the Taiwan Song Haimao on Han Tuozhou's side accepted all the orders, and more than 700 Japanese ships were collected at once. With Liu Wenbin's fleet, the large ships that were able to line up in Japan were either sunk or captured. Later, the large Japanese ships were swept away, and the captured ships became smaller and smaller, so small that even Han Tuozhou's side had no choice. Su Shidan came to see Long Jiu today, just to set up a threshold for collecting ships. Otherwise, all the broken ships would be collected. Could it be that the Tai Song Haimao was collecting rags?

"Brother Su, this is a established strategy. Even if Taisong Haimao loses some money, it must continue this strategy of collecting ships. Only in this way can the Japanese's naval combat capability and shipping capability be completely destroyed. I believe that if you lose some money now, you will definitely earn back the principal and interest in the future." Long Jiuxin said that if you don't burn all the Japanese ships and grab them all, the effect will be reduced. The Japanese are the kind of ethnic group that refuses to admit defeat easily. If you don't kill him, it will be even more difficult to subdue once he recovers. If he doesn't die, he will suffer from it. That's not OK. Besides, Taisong Haimao is an official company. In the future, it is a leading state-owned enterprise. If state-owned enterprises don't spend any money in vain, is it still a state-owned enterprise? Thinking of this, Long Jiu grinned and said nonsense: "Brother Su, don't worry. In my opinion, one day the Japanese will have to spend double the price to redeem their ships."

"No, even the fishermen of the Song Dynasty look down on the broken boats like the Japanese. How meaningful it is to steal them! We will collect them, but I am afraid we will have to smash our hands."

Damn! You think it's stock trading!

Long Jiu had to change his attitude to do his work:

"Brother Su, let me ask you, Japan's coastal defense is not far from being completely paralyzed, right?"

"Mr. Long was joking. I can say responsibly that not only Japan's coastal defense has been paralyzed, but also the shipping has been paralyzed."

"No! It's not like this now that it's completely paralyzed. King Yelu still has to continue working hard. The ship that can hold five tons of cargo must be snatched. If it can't load five tons of cargo, it will burn it out with a fire, which will make the Japanese people useless ships. Only then can he recognize it well and ask me for help from the Song Dynasty."

"I'm afraid that the Japanese wouldn't even find a ship, and they didn't even have a ship to go to the Song Dynasty. Wouldn't that be a mistake? Haha!" Su Shidan couldn't help but feel very happy when he thought that the Japanese might have to use a sampan on the Song Dynasty when they went to the Song Dynasty.

"Don't worry! I believe that as long as you continue to rob, the Japanese will come to ask for the Song Dynasty." Long Jiu said this, and looked at Su Shidan meaningfully and whispered: "After the court learned about the Japanese's miserable appearance, the Navy's affairs will definitely be obvious. By then, Brother Su will be successful, but don't forget to do so."

The motion to establish a navy has long been reported to the court, but the court has different opinions on this. After all, the Song Dynasty still regards mainland thinking as the absolute mainstream, and the unsuccessful cause of the Northern Expedition is in the forefront, so the matter of establishing a navy has been discussed and discussed again and again, and it has been unresolved. As soon as Liu Wenbin's strategy to seize the sea power in Japan was proposed, Han Tuozhou felt that this might be an opportunity to promote the establishment of a navy in the Song Dynasty. Just imagine that using the navy alone can make Japan half-dead. If the Song Dynasty court still did not realize the importance of maritime combat power, it would be really unreasonable.

When it comes to the establishment of a navy, there are rumors that the Taiwan-Song Haimao led by Han Tuozhou may be merged with the existing navy and then integrated. As a fanatical hawkish figure, Han Tuozhou is of course satisfied with operating a business empire, and getting involved in military and political affairs is Han Tuozhou's life dream.

Su Shidan certainly understood Han Tuozhou's thoughts, so he smiled at Long Jiu and no longer mentioned that he had to set up a threshold for collecting the ship.

Long Jiuxin said, this is just like this! Pirates are not driven by interests, so they will not work actively. If you are willing to collect ships, the pirates are very motivated. If you are unwilling to collect ships, you rely on Liu Wenbin and Han Huanzhang alone. After all, there is only a few teams. It is okay to fight my main force, but the large-scale paralysis of the Japanese maritime transportation capacity has to rely on the pirates. I have to follow the mass line. That's the reason!

Su Shidan was enlightened by Long Jiu. After all, his awareness was not low, so he figured out various joints at that time, so he left in a relaxed mood.

So the King Yelu was robbed and the Taiwan-Song-Sea Trade Ship was accepted.

On this day, Liu Wenbin came to Hakodate. He took the Fubo number. Mao Geng also came to Hakodate from Zhafang (Sapporo). Zhao Han set the down payment in Sapporo. This is not surprising. Sapporo has good environment and resources, and rivers directly lead to the coast. Of course, there is a reason why it was called the capital of Hokkaido in later generations. Time travelers are not troublesome, so they directly suggested focusing on building Sapporo. Then Sapporo became the seat of the prince's palace of the Prince of the Beihai. As for why it is called Zhafang, it is a little bit of the bad taste of the time travelers - isn't this the place where whale oil is pressed? Just call Zhafang!

When Mao Geng learned that he would no longer need a large ship like the Fubo to suppress Japanese warships, he felt much more relaxed, so he asked:

"How is the consumption of torpedoes? This thing is not low. You don't use it as a firework, just put it on it casually!" The cost of a torpedo is less than 100 stag, and its production capacity is limited, so Mao Geng is worried that these guys will act like a rich man when fighting torpedoes.

Liu Wenbin replied with an excited look:

"Teacher Mao. You don't have to worry about this. That is, you used a few more torpedoes at the beginning. At the beginning, you didn't have any experience! Then you fired torpedoes at any time. Later, with experience, you basically didn't use torpedoes. First of all, the warning of meteor bombs. Ordinary merchant ships or small fleets surrendered immediately after being scared by this. Those who dared to resist could not withstand the shotgun of meteor bombs swept across the meteor bombs, the sails were beaten into scum, and people were beaten into sieves, and it was difficult for living objects on the deck to have a living thing.

Therefore, the Japanese ships are just a dish. Those who dare to resist will be brave enough. As long as the pole thunder is put on, the Japanese ship will be finished. Unexpectedly, the wooden boat is as fragile as paper in front of the pole thunder. No matter how big the wooden boat is, it cannot stand the explosion of the pole thunder. The medium-sized pole thunder consumes a little more, and a total of more than 130 were consumed. In addition, eleven torpedoes consumed, and fifty-one small pole thunder consumed. Overall, the consumption is still well controlled. Haha, at least that's what I think."

It should be admitted that torpedoes are too powerful after all, and they are too extravagant to deal with wooden boat torpedoes. In fact, pole thunder is quite useful. Especially after proficient operation, Liu Wenbin said that as soon as the speedboat and pole thunder came out, the Japanese were killed in a few strokes.

When Long Jiu saw Mao Geng frowned, he understood it and settled the score with Liu Wenbin:

"Originally, our budget was to spend 300,000 yuan to complete the plan, and later it increased the budget to 400,000 yuan. Now it seems that the cost of buying a population has almost been captured 50,000 yuan, and that's about one million yuan. With meteor bombs, pole pole thunder, torpedo, 200,000 yuan, and the stolen ship is amazing. In this way, the consumption of one million yuan is at least. This is just a small fight, damn! War is really a bottomless pit that burns money!"

Long Jiu settled the accounts, and Mao Geng felt that Long Jiu had said something for him. This was not counting Han Tuozhou's investment. They had at least 100,000 yuan in it. However, the Mao Group is not short of money now. Mao Geng smiled and saw that Liu Wenbin looked a little unwilling, so he turned around and said:

"A million yuan investment is also worth it. Obtaining the sea control power will be firmly in our hands. Compared with the previous plan to occupy Sado Island, the cost is not necessarily high, because occupying Sado Island may be as Ma Fen pointed out, and it will become a protracted war of attrition, so the cost of seizing the sea control power may be lower. As for the benefits, I think it will definitely be much higher."

Liu Wenbin laughed, spread out a map, pointed it on the map, and proudly introduced:

"We only fought two fierce battles, and the later action was quite easy. We basically managed the sea control power of Japan. Let me tell you, it would be nice for the Japanese to find fishing boats now. Our warships were almost cleaned up by us. So, now we just occupy islands, except for Sado Island, Izu Island, and here, the Yinqi Island, here, Seed Island, and here---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
