New Ming Empire mixed in America

Those who want to go to Europe to breathe free air during this time may be disappointed. Take Paris as an example, there is thick excrement on the ground and thick black smoke emitted by factories in the sky.

If you take a deep breath, you can probably be sent directly to the respiratory department for rescue.

High heels were not invented for beauty, but to keep gentlemen's feet as far away from excrement on the ground as possible.

In the same way, perfume is not for beauty, but to cover up the disgusting body odor that cannot be washed away.

The Spanish soldiers stopped shooting, but the airship did not.

Several oil barrel incendiary bombs were thrown down. In order to facilitate observation, some small LED lights were installed on these incendiary bombs, which flashed very beautifully.

Soon, these incendiary bombs floated over the camp behind the Spanish defense line.

The wind at night was no longer so strong, which was one of the reasons why the airship was dispatched.

Accompanied by violent explosions, the incendiary bombs that originally flickered like fireflies in the sky were suddenly detonated more than ten meters above the camp, and then large sheets of flame fell from the sky.

The incendiary bombs that have been upgraded once again are much stronger than the previous incendiary bombs that could only rely on oil.

At least there is a thickening agent added to the current incendiary bombs. It is as simple as making fatty acid aluminum soap using sodium soap aqueous solution and aluminum sulfate water to thicken the fuel.

Although it cannot compare with genuine incendiary bombs, it is enough for today's war.

At least to the Spanish soldiers who used tents and wooden houses to form camps, these flames were almost like the devil's breath from hell.

The unlucky guy who was on fire screamed and ran around in the camp, setting more tents on fire.

Although soldiers were strictly prohibited from carrying open flames in the special warehouse where gunpowder was placed, the flames coming from the sky were obviously not on the precautions of these soldiers.

The violent explosion could be heard clearly from miles away.

"Good guys, these guys who can fly are more enjoyable. Our artillery is incomparable to others."

On the artillery position, several soldiers looked at the firelight appearing in the direction of the city and murmured to each other with envy.

"I heard that artillery will be moved to airships in the future. It would be great if I could be selected. Shooting cannons in the sky is much more exciting than on the ground!"

A soldier gently put back the newly wiped cannonball in his hand, then used a tool to hold up another cannonball and began to wipe it.

"I haven't heard of moving artillery into the sky, but I know that the design bureau is studying how to make the artillery move on its own!"

The squad leader of the artillery group dropped the rag and said something mysterious.

"You all know that during this period, the army began to select soldiers with a height of less than 1.6 meters, right?"

With a proud smile, the squad leader continued without giving in: "These short soldiers are prepared to control artillery that can walk freely in the future. Unfortunately, my height is not up to standard..."

Shaking his head with some regret, the monitor looked regretful about why he was so tall.

Because I heard that the selected soldiers can enjoy double the salary of non-commissioned officers. If they, the original officers, are selected, there will be additional subsidies.

It's a pity that none of this matters to him.

"Squad leader, how can the artillery move on its own?" A short soldier rolled his eyes and came to the squad leader's side to help the squad leader put down the shells.

"What else could it be like, just put a steam engine on wheels."

The squad leader glared at this guy, knowing that the other person's purpose was not in these words, so he said:

"The conditions for registration are all in the military newspaper, so you have time to read more newspapers but you don't listen to any of them..."

Ignoring the squad leader's nagging, the soldier had already begun to imagine how the artillery could move on its own.

That's right, Li Mingqi is already preparing to form a tank force.

But what we are recruiting now is not tank crews, but members for armored vehicle crews.

An armored vehicle based on an agricultural vehicle is, to put it bluntly, an agricultural vehicle independently produced by the Xinming Empire with some steel plates added to the outside.

And because a rotating machine gun must be installed on the cab, there are strict height requirements for the crew members.

After all, if the cab is too high, it will greatly hinder the performance of the rear rotating machine gun shooter.

So if the hardware is not good, you can only look at the software. If the cab cannot be too high, then find some short people to serve as armored vehicle crew members.

The Navy also has similar selection requirements, but the Navy is recruiting pilots for submarines.

Current submarines do not have the ability to travel far, so the Royal Academy invented a transport ship that can carry submarines. When the war starts, the submarines can detach from the transport ship and join the battle. It is said that this kind of ship has been ordered by the British shipyard.

.

In order to delay Daiying's production of ironclads, the Xinming Empire placed some orders at major shipyards in Daiying.

Almost all of these orders are modified transport ships. Except for the power system, which needs to be refitted after returning, the rest are ordered according to the drawings of the battleship design bureau.

Not only can this help lay eggs, but it can also delay the construction time of the British ironclads.

At this time, Daiying was still in the period of civilian production of ironclads. Historically, these conservative Admiralty Ministers almost allowed Daiying's Royal Navy to use old warships to compete with Nasan's ironclads.

Later, if it had not relied on its strong industrial strength to catch up with the number of ironclads again, its reputation as the strongest navy in the UK might have been lost long ago.

Now Li Mingqi is ready to sell his theory to the world that the larger the tonnage of a battleship, the stronger its combat effectiveness.

The Jin Yiwei have already begun to study the feasibility of this plan, just like later generations of the United States used the theory of space warfare to defeat the furry bear.

Li Mingqi is also preparing to use the design ideas of dreadnoughts to lead the development of warships in this world.

Anyway, now that the whole world has seen the strength of the new iron-clad ships of the Xinming Empire, Li Mingqi does not have the ability to hold the hands of these countries to prevent them from stealing their troops.

Since it is inevitable, Li Mingqi is ready to let the era of giant ships come early.

Anyway, the marine steam engine has not yet been perfected, and these modified dreadnoughts will not pose a threat to the New Ming Empire after they are produced.

Even in order to attract these people to take the bait, Li Mingqi was already preparing to assemble a fleet of new Ming-style dreadnoughts for a global voyage.

I believe that by then, the attention of all countries will be attracted by these big guys, and then they will invest massive amounts of money into this bottomless pit.

The first one to fool must be to take three, because as long as he follows the trend with three, Dai Ying will definitely follow, and it will be the kind of follow that doubles.

In this way, the Xinming Empire can secretly develop its own navy.

This is the game Li Mingqi set up for Daiying's navy. As long as Daiying is fooled, the New Ming Empire will have time to overtake them.

If the Xinming Empire directly launches new warships without these small tricks, Daiying will definitely rely on its own industrial strength and be the last to overwhelm the Xinming Empire's navy.

The Xinming Empire can produce six warships a year, which is considered too much. If Dai Ying goes all out to produce, not to mention six, sixty ships can be launched in a year.

How to play this?

Without some measures, the Xinming Empire would have no chance to overtake the opponent.
