Become a feudal king from today

"How is the training of the airship operators?" Zhao Xu asked again.

"No problem. After the first airship was completed, the Defense Department sent specialized soldiers. Now they are very skilled in operation. With the airship, combat effectiveness can be formed immediately." Wang Chong added.

Zhao Xu showed a satisfied look, "In that case, as soon as the remaining airships are completed, they will head to Malacca immediately."

The airship can only fly ten kilometers per hour.

The airship can only cover 240 kilometers in one day, and it will take at least twenty days to fly to Malacca.

This cannot be accomplished without conquering the five southeastern countries.

Because the airship cannot fly in the sky all the time, it also needs supplies. .

Now, all it takes is to arrange supply points along the flight route.

"After all the airships are completed this time, you will hand over the airship workshop to the Defense Department. Your most important task is to cooperate with the Industry Department to carry out industrial upgrades." Zhao Xu said.

After the Defense Department was established, the workshops involved in military industry were exclusively managed by the Defense Department.

The Defense Department has also established a military industry yamen to be responsible for this matter.

Wang Ying is the person in charge of this yamen and is in charge of the entire military production of Dasong.

After Wang Ying took office, the military industry yamen also adjusted Dasong's military industry structure in accordance with his reform plan.

The original Military and War Department was merged into the Military Industry Yamen, and the workshops were placed under the direct management of the Military Industry Yamen.

In order to improve the scale and efficiency of military production, make it more formalized.

The military industrial yamen selected several points in the mountainous area near Yancheng specifically for the production of military industrial products.

After these workshops are completed, they will be protected by special soldiers, and the military department will be relocated as a whole.

Compared with the previous workshops, these new workshops are naturally larger in scale, and weapons such as muskets and artillery will not be crowded together for production.

Instead, each region has its own main production of weapons.

In addition, the research and development institute directly under the jurisdiction of the Military War Department will also be moved.

Those who are specifically responsible for developing muskets will go to the musket production workshop, and those who are responsible for developing artillery will go to the artillery production workshop.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I estimate that the overall upgrade of this industry will take two to three years. After all, there are too many things involved." Wang Chong scratched his head.

Although the technology is readily available, just like cooking, it takes time from selecting ingredients to cooking.

This is the problem with this industrial upgrading.

Technically, he has it figured out.

But the change from materials to equipment takes time.

However, once the replacement is completed, a large number of industrial products will spring up, especially those complex industrial products.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that any industrial product will have to wait two or three years.

Some things that require electricity but are not complicated can be prepared for production now.

After talking about this, Wang Chong went back.

Zhao Xu sent someone to find Wang Ying again and asked him to prepare the bombs for the airship and hand them over to the navy to transport them to Malacca.

The Westerners, headed by the British, wanted to arm-wrestle with him in Tianzhu.

He had to break their wrists.

When Zhao Xu was arranging many matters for the Battle of Tianzhu.

Xiao Guizi also sent the telegram to Tongguan.

After another six days, the cavalry handed the information to Chang Wei.

After reading Zhao Xu's telegram, Chang Wei nodded slowly and ordered Colin to be called.

In the past nearly half a month, some changes have actually taken place in the Khan Court.

Colin seems to have a very high status in the hearts of Beidi people.

He successfully persuaded many high-prestige Beidi people, including the captured king of Wangzhang and generals.

I was completely convinced by them. After these Beidi people thought about it, as soon as Colin said the name of Tian Khan, the Beidi people started talking about it.

Coupled with Colin and others taking the lead in agreeing, the eyes of these Beidi prisoners looking at Dasong gradually changed.

If we say before, they were unwilling and disappointed.

Now, their eyes are gentle.

Chang Wei was inexplicably surprised by this change. He did not expect that the name Tian Khan was so sacred in the hearts of the grassland people.

But he felt relieved after thinking about it for a moment.

Just like many people who are singing praises nowadays, they deeply believe that their emperor Zhao Xu is the emperor star who came to earth to save them.

It’s not surprising that Beidi people have similar associations.

Not long after, Colin came over.

His injuries are slightly better and his spirits are much better.

These days, Dasong's army did not go on a killing spree, which made him slightly relieved.

"The Emperor has agreed to your request for surrender, but from now on you still need to atone for your sins as slaves." Chang Wei said seriously.

"Thank God Khan!" Colin looked excited when he heard this. He knelt down on one knee and lowered his head in the direction of Yancheng.

Chang Wei nodded, and then said: "But as the saying goes, listen to his words and watch his actions. Now there is a chance to test you Beidi people to see if you are true or fake."

After a pause, he looked to the west, "The emperor has ordered us to go to the Tianshan Mountains and attack Tusman in the west. Supply will be a problem on such a long road, so we will need you Beidi people to drive cattle and sheep. Grazing while we go on an expedition."

From Tongguan to Khanting, the food transportation along the way is very troublesome.

It will be even more expensive to transport food and other supplies from the Khan Court to the Tianshan Mountains.

But if they adopt the Beidi people's supply method, supply will no longer be a problem.

All the Beidi people needed to do was drive their livestock and follow them.

"Since it is the order of Tian Khan, we will definitely complete this mission brilliantly." Colin's eyes were firm. "And Tusman is also our enemy. The pasture of our Red Flame King's tent was Tianshan."

"In that case, then go back and make preparations. Some of them will march westward with us, and some of them will go to the pastures controlled by the White Tiger Army to raise livestock for Dasong there." Chang Wei said slowly.

In response, Colin turned and left.

Chang Wei then called Chen Hu, Bai Shang, Lu Chang, Huo An and other generals over.

Originally, Lu Chang and others were a little bored because the battle was over.

When he learned that he was going to march westward, he immediately became excited again.

"This Tusman really doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth. He actually came to provoke us. He is just asking for death." Lu Chang snorted, "I have to beat the crap out of them this time."

Xue Jiandao said, "The general has already fought against them. He is even equal to Beidi, so there is nothing to fear."

"..."

The generals were all talking, and they looked like they could destroy Tusman in an instant.

Chang Wei looked at the generals, frowned slightly, and said solemnly, "Everyone's tail is raised again? Have you forgotten the emperor's discipline? You can despise the enemy, but you cannot be proud."

"Yes, General." Upon hearing this, Lu Chang and others' faces immediately became serious.

Chang Wei nodded, "Go back and prepare immediately."

After everyone left, he looked to the west.

According to intelligence, this Tusman Empire conquered many Middle-Earths and was at its peak, full of ambitions.

For Da Song, who has expanded his sphere of influence to the Western Regions, this empire is dangerous and cannot be allowed to exist.

Historically, when the Wu Dynasty expanded its sphere of influence to the Western Regions, a large empire also rose there.

The two sides were constantly fighting on the border.

Later, with the decline of the Wu Dynasty, the occupied land in the Western Regions was continuously eroded, so that it was never recovered for thousands of years.

They would never let such a thing happen in Dasong.
