The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

"We are occupied, Your Highness!" On the battleship, an officer carrying the rank of Rear Admiral reported to a very young colonel. The Rear Admiral saluted first.

"Very well, our Marines are great!" The colonel returned courtesy to the major general.

The army is most class-conscious, and low-rank officers must first pay tribute to high-rank officers. If they are not, it is a violation of military discipline!

But this colonel is different. He holds the gold medal of "If I come in person", and his status is too noble.

Yan Kun, the eldest son of the Southeastern country!

He led the fleet to the east along the west coast of India, violently attacking the coastal cities of the Mughal Empire, carrying out the traditional business of the southeast country-pirates. The southeast country’s navy is a licensed pirate. Once the war starts, some old captains will be in the main. The skull and crossbones flag hung on the mast, which is the pirate flag!

Entering a state of war, all illegal acts before are legal, then they intercept enemy ships, block the coastline, looting seaside cities, they rob merchant ships, even fishing boats, and divide the looted property and the captured men and women. All are sold, mainly to India, Persia, Ottoman, and Black Africa.

As for attacking cities, towns and villages, the sweetness is even greater. All the valuables are washed away, and the strong and strong people are taken away on the boat, leaving the weak and old people behind.

Yan Kun is really eye-opening!

He has been in the army since he was fifteen years old. He became a major captain in five years and soon became a colonel. Although he had the advantage of being born with a golden spoon, he also worked very hard. He accepted the strict requirements of the Southeast Army Navy. Military training, and passed all the subjects of the captain’s license, and they are all excellent---he is very smart, and he is a super VIP user. Other officers need to move out to train and take turns. He is a single person. When training on a single boat, the instructor is the best naval officer. Everything is passed down, and it is difficult to think of success or not.

Subjects and practical exercises are not as good as real battles. Only in the course of battle can you know what real life at sea is!

The Southeast Army occupied an island by the sea as a base, and the captured people were held in wooden fences for slave owners from various countries and regions to purchase.

India is an area with a large population, with a large number of people caught, a large quantity and a good price, and business is booming.

Beautiful slaves were auctioned publicly, while ordinary slaves were sold like livestock. Slave owners looked at their figures and opened their mouths to look at their teeth!

In particular, some family members were taken prisoner, but they were sold in pieces, their flesh and bones were separated, and the crying was horrible.

The slaves were very pitiful. The deputy commander of the fleet and Rear Admiral Xiao Changrong who was with him saw the prince's unbearableness and told him: "War does not believe in tears, real pirates make them worse!"

"What a misfortune?" Yan Kun asked.

"Pirates kill innocent people indiscriminately!" Xiao Changrong said indifferently.

Yan Kun nodded, knowing that Xiao Changrong was right.

He saw all kinds of slave owners, not to mention the others. It is clear that the Southeast Army is at war with India and Ottomans, but there are still a large number of Indian and Ottoman slave owners gathered here, and the Southeast Army guarantees their safety. The two sides are in harmony. !

So Yan Kun learned another one: "No one can't live with money!"

He knows a term "firm patriot". In those countries, it is the upper-class powers who get the most benefits. The upper-class powers should be the most patriotic, but it is often the caravans sent by the upper-class powers that come here to sell slaves and fight the enemy Southeast Army. Contact, how can ordinary caravans get such benefits-there are many slaves, the price is cheap, and the slave owners resell them, and the profits will at least double.

Those upper-class nobles are really "firm patriots"!

That island was not only a collection and distribution center for slaves, but also a supply center for the Southeast Army. The transport ships brought a lot of supplies to this place. Among them, the most important supply that Yan Kun knew was rum. !

Sailing is a very dangerous activity. Not only is the maritime climate changeable, winds are high, but there are often lost routes and untimely supplies. Especially the Southeast Navy likes direct flights, that is, crossing the vast Indian Ocean from India to Arabia. Yadong on the peninsula will travel along the Red Sea to Egypt, saving time and demonstrating its strength.

During this long voyage distance, the warships built by the Southeastern Navy have tried their best to improve the living conditions and food supply of the soldiers. In fact, the food of the Southeastern Navy is indeed first-rate. Navy soldiers are generally heavier than army soldiers.

The condition of the food is pretty good, and the fresh water is a big trouble. Although it has been boiled before going to sea and you also use silver cabinets to store the water, they will still quickly turn green in less than a month. Stinks and causes deadly dysentery.

In the tropics, the fresh water carried by warships will deteriorate rapidly within a week.

During the voyage, the Southeast Army has a wide range of sources of fresh water supply. It has the gift of heaven---rain water, which can not be met. There is also the water generator on this ship, which uses the principle of distillation to generate pure water. And sometimes collective welfare for everyone, such as using pure water to make a portion of mung bean paste for the whole ship to eat.

In fact, the southeast ship can also land on the Indian coast to replenish fresh water. There is little danger from the enemy. In fact, the Indians are worthy of the 5th scum of the war, and the resistance is pitiful. The case is classic.

Can the water in India be drunk?

Unless you have an Indian stomach, the water there is bone soup!

Once a group of soldiers from the southeast went to a water source, where the water looked very clear and could even be imported directly.

The leader of the team took a few sips, looked up, and vomited out.

The corpse of a huge swollen sacred cow was soaking in the water, slowly floating out from the water grass.

There are sacred cows in the river water for many years. The problem is that they drink and pull.

If you don't know what's in the water, it's really not suitable to draw water.

According to Cantonese, "We Cantonese can eat everything, but we can't eat Ah San's food. We must know that their food can even be poisoned by gods!"

You can't handle the Ganges water, don't drink Indian water!

On warships, rum must be used to solve the problem of human body water supply. The raw material of rum is sugarcane. The syrup of sugar cane is used to make the leftover syrup, which is diluted with water and then brewed with yeast, even if it is brewed with pure sugarcane juice. Rum is not expensive, it is easy to brew, low in price, and there is enough supply!

For example, other liquors such as white wine, rice wine, and wine are not available. The cost is too high, and many places are not full of food. How can it be possible to use grain to make wine and use precious land to grow grapes for wine.

Rum has the functions of being easy to preserve, sterilizing, and driving away the cold. It can also replace fresh water when fresh water is lacking. The sergeant on the warship blends the distributed rum with fresh water to cover up the odor. Considering that rum is the only safe drink on board, everyone drink it as much as possible, including Yan Kun.

Rum is a kind of magical wine. As long as it is poured into the stomach, it is like swallowing a fire that is jumping with sweetness. Let it burn your nerves, stimulate your brain, and ignite your spirits and desires~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ No matter how tired or painful you are, this sweet fire can bring you wonder and romance, and make you full of strength and sorrow.

This is exactly what is needed on a warship!

The battleships of the sailing era in the seventeenth century seemed majestic, but in fact they were not easy to live. Sailors were never easy to mix work. The lack of cranes and the frequent movement of heavy cargo often made them exhausted, and those rolling If they are not careful, the barrels will break their fingers or limbs.

The situation at sea changes rapidly. Even when there are enough people to perform shifts, their sleep time will not exceed 4 hours. If they encounter wind and waves, they will be awakened in the middle of the night and run barefoot on the deck to pull the ropes, and then be caught by the turbulent waves. Rolled away, or overwhelmed by the falling rigging.

In winter, they will be drenched and trembling due to the continuous waves and heavy rains; in the tropics, they will be topless, and their skin will be red and blistered by the hot sun.

Not to mention naval battles, shrapnel flying, the situation is changing rapidly, even if you are a prince, you are also facing life threats.

Therefore, Yan Kun and his officers and soldiers ate the rum and let their spirits soaked up. They used rum to refresh their minds, stay in a happy state, and better complete the combat missions.

Rum has another advantage, that is, it greatly closes the relationship between officers and soldiers. You are a prince, clink glasses with officers and soldiers, and officers and soldiers are united, and see who can be the enemy in the world!

Therefore, the importance of rum is ranked first among all food supplements, and the supply of rum must be ensured!

...

The young prince had a lot of enlightenment, and he also discovered the navy's real way to win.

That's the Marine Corps!
