Chapter 214 Sea Route Capture

"You idiot, if you can summon everything through the system, what's the use of you?" the system mocked coldly.

Damn, this system really doesn't give you any face.

"I would like to ask if there should be three million people under my rule? I wonder if their quality of life meets humane restrictions and whether the Dresses rifle technology has been unlocked?" Chu Yun asked about the matter of installing rifles in the back.

"Host your population has surged in a short period of time, and the people are unstable, and the system cannot judge. You need to wait for the people to settle down before you can make a humanitarian restriction judgment." The system said again.

Chu Yun was a little angry when he heard this, but he couldn't do anything to the system master.

The director of the shipyard was stunned when he saw Chu Yun and did not reply for a long time. He thought that Chu Yun was dissatisfied with the construction progress of the Fengfan Battleship and was even more anxious.

The silver that Chu Yun invested in the shipyard was calculated at 100,000 yuan, which was the same place as the Ordnance Bureau, the Army, the Academy of Sciences, and the Railway Construction Committee. If Chu Yun was disappointed, his future budget would not be so abundant.

"Sir, please rest assured. I will let the workers start construction day and night, shortening the construction date of Class III battleships by one month." The factory director gritted his teeth and patted Chu Yun's chest to assure him.

Chu Yun then came to his senses from the conversation with the system in his mind: "Oh, don't worry, I'm too hasty. Just arrange the production according to your own schedule. Compared with the speed, I hope the Navy can get a warship of guaranteed quality."

"It must be." Seeing that Chu Yun was unintentionally blamed, the factory manager breathed a sigh of relief, "Sir, please move to our cafeteria. We have many Ming pastries and our British American style here."

"On the other day, I will go to inspect the Navy Martial Arts Hall to see how our fleet of the Liao Restoration Army is ready." Chu Yun shook his head with a smile.

The Naval Martial Arts Hall is located in Dalian Port, the jurisdiction of the Navy Fleet. So far, the Naval Martial Arts Hall has only trained a group of students. Unlike the Army Martial Arts Hall to produce infantry officers, artillery officers, and military staff on a large scale, the training cycle of naval officers is longer, and the ability to master various complex situations is that the Liao army had not had many ships at the beginning, and it was necessary to cultivate elite soldiers and generals.

At this time, General Nelson of the Navy Lecture Hall was taking the naval officers of the Navy Lecture Hall to explain the tactics of maritime operations and the performance of the warship on the Victory. An official came to Nelson's ear and whispered a few words, Nelson was startled.

"You guys go with me, and a big shot is coming." Nelson said.

Big man?! Navy officers knew that Nelson was one of the two generals of the Restoration Liao Army. The only one who was called a big man by Nelson was Chu Yun!

"The army leader is here to our Navy!"

"The guys in the Army Department brag about their achievements to us all day long, just like the people in our Admiralty are having a good meal. Now that the military leader comes to our Admiralty, it's finally time for us to show our abilities!"

A group of enthusiastic naval officers followed Nelson and hurriedly landed the Victory.

Sure enough, Chu Yun and his guards were already waiting on the dock.

"Sir, if you come, say to your subordinates in advance. How can you let you wait here in person?" Nelson said quickly when he saw Chu Yun.

"General Nelson, you are quite energetic in your outfit." Chu Yun looked at Nelson's improved naval uniform.

After Nelson and the crew of the Victory arrived, Chu Yun asked the navy to change its uniform, which not only reduced the logo of Great Britain, but was not as heavy as the armor of the Ming army. Instead, it was based on Chu Yun's impression of the navy uniforms in later generations.

"See sir!" Dozens of naval officers behind Nelson greeted Chu Yun at the same time.

"I'm here today, first of all, to see how the Navy Martial Arts Hall is running. I have also heard recently that several brigades of the Army Department would be a little arrogant because of my great military achievements in destroying the Later Jin Dynasty and would not like the Navy Department very much."

"What the Army Master said is that the guys from the Army Department have been unhappy with us for a long time. We have restored the Liao army to fight against the Later Jin Dynasty, so they have the opportunity to make military achievements. But our Navy Department has no choice but to be anxious. Who said that the Later Jin Dynasty doesn't even have a broken ship?"

"Ha ha."

A group of naval officers laughed at each other.

Chu Yun saw these generals as young as him and was full of energy. In the era of great navigation, he had to rely on these fresh blood. The only naval battle that the Liao Navy had fought since its establishment was the Zhazha Water Division in a vassal island of Jiuzhou Island, Japan. What's more, most of the naval officers here were recruited into the Navy Martial Arts Hall after that naval battle.

"Military Master, when can our navy go to war? Let the guys from the Army see that we are powerful." A fanatical officer asked.

"You only saw the military achievements, but you didn't know that a general succeeded and thousands of bones were broken. In this case, I would not send you to fight." Chu Yun shook his head, "The so-called "raising troops for a thousand days" and using troops for a while, I have invested a lot of resources in you, that is, to polish you into an elite soldier. Only when you become more skilled and recognized by Provost Nelson will you be qualified to sail on the vast and dangerous sea."

When the naval officers heard Chu Yun say this, they were a little disappointed.

"General Nelson, come with me." Chu Yun called Nelson alone, "Do you know what my second purpose was?"

"Although the sir said that our officers are not qualified to go to war yet, I know that sir is here to plan a war," said Nelson.

"You are really keen. The main purpose of my trip this time is to plan an unprecedented maritime crusade." Chu Yun held his hands and looked at the calm Dalian Bay, and said slowly, "A group of firearms we shipped to Annan Kingdom were robbed by the people of Shibazhi, and suffered heavy losses. This is not the first time that Shibazhi robbed the goods of our Far East Trading Company, fighting for the East China Sea, and even the South China Sea is crucial to us. In the past, we had the back of the Later Jin Dynasty and had no energy to go south. But now that we have eliminated Hou Jin, it is necessary to consider controlling this route and collecting tens of millions of taels of silver every year."

Nelson was not surprised at all when he heard Chu Yun's grand plan. His first imaginary enemies in heaven were not Goryeo or Japan, but Yizhou and Nanyang, which had more important geographical locations.

"Although the Nanyang trade line is important, we are not able to fight Shibazhi at the moment," said Nelson.

"I am not confident that I can destroy Shibazhi, which runs across the East China Sea with more than ten warships, but we need some preparations. I plan to lead the fleet to inspect the Ryukyu Islands in the near future, take a look at our lonely land and peek at Yizhou."
