Zhuang Yingchang gave Feng Jian to the backrest chair where he usually sat and rested on the boat, and then bowed and said, "Mr. Guardian has a little rest. I have prepared a book of reconciliation, and you can check the materials on the boat in accordance with the actual items later."

Feng Jian nodded and suddenly asked: "The artillery and ammunition on the ship can be fully prepared!"

Zhang Wentai bowed and said, "Before coming to Pingdu, Beizhi specially found the Dengzhou Bingbeidao Master and requested that the ship be fully fed with supplies. Before leaving, he finally equipped all kinds of ammunition and medicine according to the normal training equipment standards. The guardian master will check it later!"

Then he added: "The two men of Beizhi will not engage in private fraud, and do the business of selling materials on ships to sell their conscience!"

Feng Jian looked at Zhang Wentai, nodded and asked again: "Does the other ships of Dengzhou Navy have been equipped with all kinds of ammunition!"

Although Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai did not understand what Feng Jian asked about the matter, Zhang Wentai still answered honestly: "The ammunition and equipment in the arsenal were supplemented once a quarter. If it was necessary to add more, it would also take the silver to manage the officials in charge to be fully loaded with equipment. Some lucky ships would secretly sell the ship's firearms and ammunition in exchange for silver every time they took supplies from the ship. Therefore, the artillery ammunition and equipment on many ships of the Dengzhou Navy were just a show. The two of the Beishi were not talking big. They maintained the marine facilities like me, and there were not many people in the Dengzhou Navy.

Zhuang Yingchang sighed from the side: "Hey, if there is any emergency war, these ships will be targets for moving!"

Feng Jian was curious: "This ship is not your own. Others use the materials on the ship to get benefits, but why are you two different?"

Zhuang Yingchang sighed: "The various materials on the ship are things that are prepared to fight against the enemy or carry out combat preparation training for naval officers and soldiers. Our conscience does not allow ourselves to use things that concern the lives of officers and soldiers on the ship for benefits."

Feng Jian showed a look of admiration on his face, but continued to ask: "That is, it is a perfunctory thing to come to Dengzhou Navy to patrol the sea."

Zhang Wentai felt very strange. This garrison was really a bit unique. How could he ask about the Dengzhou Navy? Did he have any intentions for the Dengzhou Navy? He was shocked when he thought about this, and he was really thinking about it!

Zhang Wentai's speculation was really a bit in line with Feng Jian's thoughts. After the Dengzhou rebellion in history, rebels such as Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others finally took the Dengzhou navy and many Western-made artillery craftsmen who made red artillery to invest in the Later Jin Dynasty, greatly improving the ability of the Later Jin artillery fire manufacturing, and the red artillery produced played a huge role in the subsequent battles with the Ming army.

Feng Jian made an idea to see if there was a way to let the Dengzhou Navy leave Dengzhou Water City before Kong Youde and others rebelled, so as not to let this huge navy fall into the hands of the rebels. It would be best to create an opportunity to let yourself master this huge navy.

Zhuang Yingchang was also surprised that Feng Jian repeatedly asked about the Dengzhou Navy, but he still answered accordingly: "Since the Ming army fought against the Japanese in the 26th year of Wanli, and won the South China Sea of ​​Busan, North Korea. More than 30 years have passed. Now there are few Japanese pirates in the northern waters, so our navy officers and soldiers have indeed begun to slack off."

Zhang Wentai interrupted: "Since July, Jiannu from the north began to send troops to siege Dalinghe City, 30 miles east of Jinzhou City. Now reinforcements from all over the court have arrived in Liaodong. Our Dengzhou Navy has also started to be busy, transporting grain and food from Dengzhou through Liaodong Bay and entering the Sancha River mouth of Liaodong. It is used to transport grain and food for the reinforcements stationed in Dayoutun Guard."

Feng Jian knew that in history, in order to prevent the construction of Dalinghe City from being built, Feng Jian became a strong city that Ningyuan, Jinzhou and other people could not conquer. So Huang Taiji ordered the Eight Banners of Manchuria to besiege the city for half a year and defeated the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty in succession. Finally, Zu Dashou, the general of the Ming army guarding the city, led his troops out of the city to surrender.

Feng Jian shook his head secretly. Zhuang Yingchang's Ming army is now transporting nutrients to the Dayoutun Guard through Liaodong Bay, which is a total waste.

During the Battle of Changshan, the Ming army Qiu Hejia, general Wu Xiang, Song Wei, and Zhang Chun, the general of the Ming Taihan Temple, and other 40,000 infantry and cavalry officers and soldiers were attacked by the Later Jin Lord Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji's army divided into left and right wings to attack Wu Xiang Camp and Song Wei Camp, and in advance ambushed the Ming army on the way back, resulting in the annihilation of 40,000 reinforcements, and thirty-three Ming generals including Zhang Chun and Zhang Hongmo were captured.

The construction of Daling River was a wrong decision at the beginning. Liaodong Governor Qiu Hejia violated the order of Governor Sun Chengzong and privately ordered the construction of Daling River City.

After Dalinghe City was besieged, a group of ministers shirked each other. In the end, the reinforcements commander agreed by the court was Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong who was not good at military affairs. Facing the battle-torn Huang Taiji and the Eight Banners Army, it was reasonable to lose the Ming army with Qiu Hejia as the commander.

Although he knew that the Dengzhou Navy transported food and food supplies to Liaodong was a waste of money, Feng Jian was helpless. He knew what would happen in the future, but people of this era did not know!

Feng Jian will try his best to drive away the distracting thoughts in his heart, and then asked the two of them: "How many ships are there in the Dengzhou Navy now, and how many officers and soldiers?"

Zhang Wentai frowned and did not respond. Zhuang Yingchang replied patiently: "The Dengzhou Navy is divided into ten battalions, with more than 5,100 naval officers and soldiers. Each battalion is equipped with a large, medium and small warships. In other words, the 10th battalion Navy has a total of more than 100 large and large warships, including more than 20 Dafu ships No. 1. Now the naval officers and soldiers of this battalion of Beishi have left. The Dengzhou Navy has also the Ninth Battalion Navy, and more than 4,600 officers and soldiers!"

Feng Jian asked: "You battalion of naval officers and soldiers came to Xun Camp in our province, and two big blessed ships came, which means there are eight ships left in the Dengzhou Navy."

Zhuang Yingchang nodded and said, "Yes, Master Guard!"

No wonder Sun Yuanhua generously stated that he would allocate airships to fill Pingduzhou Xun Camp in the future. It turned out that these ships should have been equipped for Zhouxun Camp.

"What an old fox!" Feng Jian cursed inwardly.

Feng Jian turned the topic to the Dafu ship and said, "I heard that the governor specially convened Westerners to study and manufacture red barbarian cannons. I don't know if our Dafu ship was equipped with it."

Zhuang Yingchang said: "There are all small people, and I don't know the movements of the governor. However, there are eight red cannon positions on our Dafu ship, and two red cannons are installed. The guard can check it out in person later."

Feng Jian was energetic and immediately stood up and said, "Tell me to check immediately."

The group came to the main deck of the bow again, and saw that the gun position at the bow was blocked by a blocking object, and it was obvious that the red cannon was covered under it.

Zhuang Yingchang ordered the navy officers and soldiers on duty to lift the cannon cover, and the red cannon finally revealed its true appearance. The dark cannon was about one zhang long and about one and a half feet in diameter. At this time, it was firmly erected at the bow of the lucky ship.

Feng Jian touched the cold cannon body with his hand. This was the red cannon that made the Later Jin army scared. This was the red cannon of the 300,000 Japanese elites who destroyed Toyotomi Hideyoshi in the Korean War in the 26th year of Wanli.

This red cannon is actually a front-mounted smoothbore cannon, but at this time it is the most advanced artillery in the world today.

Now that the cannon and this lucky ship belong to him, Feng Jian suddenly felt a sense of pride in his heart. He was using his own efforts to change some things that should not have happened in this world! He has walked step by step to now, and finally has some capital to challenge the outside world...

Zhuang Yingchang and others saw the garrison stroking the cannon for a long time without saying a word. Thinking about the first time he saw the cannon, he was shocked by the power of the Red Cannon. When the target was fired, it was broken, and the rumbling cannon sounded dozens of miles apart... So he smiled with Zhang Wentai.

Cheng Yousheng and Feng Jian's personal guards were even more surprised to stare at the cannon in front of him. Cheng Yousheng originally thought that the tiger squat cannon in Zhenshan Camp was already powerful, but when he saw this red barbarian cannon that was more than st in length, he couldn't believe that there were such heavy cannons.

Cheng Yousheng kept tsk in his mouth, turned his head and asked Zhang Wentai, who was standing next to him, and said, "Old Zhang, this red cannon will probably weigh less than two thousand pounds!"

Zhang Wentai saw Cheng Yousheng curling his lips without saying a word. Zhuang Yingchang, who was beside him, hurriedly said: "This red cannon weighs no less than 2,500 kilograms, which is most suitable for fixing somewhere to attack the enemy. Wentai is a simple person, so don't blame me."

Cheng Yousheng glared at Zhang Wentai and said, "What's the point of blaming me? I don't want to pay attention to me, and this chief guard won't stick to my cold butt."

Retracting his thoughts, Feng Jian turned around and asked Zhuang Yingchang again and said, "What Mr. Zhuang said just now, there are eight cannon positions on the lucky ship, why are there only two red cannons?"

Zhuang Yingchang said: "This humble position is not very clear. I think it is simply because of insufficient financial investment in the court!"

Feng Jian nodded and said, "The handover is over here today. I have other arrangements here!"

Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai all felt a sudden "shock" and thought that the garrison was finally about to start the main topic. Whether the two of them could continue to take charge of the great blessing ship in the Zhouxun Camp in the future was just a matter of the words of the garrison.

Seeing the two of them looking nervous, Feng Jian smiled and said, "I just heard from the banker that the huge burden will be lifted after the handover is completed. This is not OK! I also hope that the two will continue to manage the Fu Ship in the Xun Camp in our province and patrol the Jiaolai River Basin for me."

Zhuang Yingchang asked hesitantly: "What the garrison means... is to continue to appoint us to take charge of this big lucky ship?"

Zhang Wentai also looked at Feng Jian with an incredible look on his face.

Feng Jian smiled and said, "The two are honest and willing to be conscientious in their work. I think it is best for the boss of this lucky boat. Don't use any doubts. I believe that the boss of the lucky boat is the boss of this lucky boat, so that's definitely true."

Feng Jian's expression suddenly turned serious and said, "But I hope you two understand that the first priority under my officer is to comply with military orders. The issuance of this garrison must be followed unconditionally. If you can do this, you can continue to be the general manager of the lucky boat! If you disobey the lip service, then what awaits you is the military rules of the Xun Camp in our province."
