"Your Majesty, Mianqing forced the Han people to shave their heads and change their clothes. Those who disobey will be killed!”
"So, as long as we force the Han people to cut off their braids, they will die if they don't rebel.”
Leave the head without the braid, leave the braid without the head?
Hearing this, Zhu Weichu's eyes lit up. This idea was indeed not bad!
However, there was also a loophole.
"Qianlong is not an idiot. Before the crisis of national subjugation, he knew what to choose. What if he issued an edict to abolish shaving and changing clothes?”
" That's even better. The braid is a shackle on the Han people's heads. Without the braid, the Ming army will defeat the Qing army, capture Beijing, capture Qianlong alive, or scare him away. The rule that the Miqing Dynasty painstakingly built over the past hundred years will instantly fall apart.”
Reba's voice fell. Zhu Weichu thought for a moment and accepted this suggestion.
In his memories, there was an uprising of the White Lotus Society at the end of the Qianlong period. In the next century, the uprising became more frequent. The largest uprising was the Taiping Rebellion. In just fourteen years, it caused the death of fifty to sixty million people. A large number of Miren people were massacred, almost destroying the rule of Miqing.
Why was Taiping Country able to summon so many people?
It was very simple. Man Qing was weak and incompetent, and she had humiliated the country. In addition to more than 200 years of high-handed rule, the grievances that had been accumulated in the hearts of the commoners were ignited like explosives, completely exploding.
Of course, this was the 41st year of Qianlong. It was different from a few decades later. Although the Kangxi and Qianlong dynasties were mixed with a lot of exaggeration and were not as exaggerated as the historical records, the rule was still quite stable. The territory and national strength were at their peak.
Defeat the Qing army!
Only by defeating the Qing army and letting the hundreds of millions of Han people see the hope of overthrowing the Qing Dynasty would things be easier.
"Your Majesty, a Dutch fleet has appeared in the waters ahead. Should we intercept it?”
Li Qingshan, Chief of Staff of the Navy, trotted over and pointed at the faint outline of the sail on the sea in front of him.
Zhu Weichu laughed. This was a fat sheep that had been delivered to his doorstep!
Taking the binoculars from Li Qingshan, he saw three first-class battleships with the Dutch flag and more than ten merchant ships of different sizes.
Currently, the main warships of the Western Navy were generally standardized into six grades. The first three grades were large warships, or battleships. The first grade had three decks and was equipped with a total of 100 or more cannons. The second grade also had three decks and was equipped with about 90 cannons. The third grade was the heavy-duty warship in the combat fleet. It had two decks and was equipped with 64 to 74 cannons.
The Dutch fleet seemed to have discovered the Ming fleet. The sailors on the deck were terrified and hurriedly pulled the sails, probably preparing to escape.
"Let the Suzhou open fire and force the Dutch fleet to stop.”
This was the first time Reba had seen a sailing warship in a movie. She zoomed in and sized it up curiously.
Looking at the wooden warships on the sea, the netizens in the live broadcast room were exhilarated.
[Wow, three first-class battleships. That's awesome. They're a big force to be taken captive and treated as their own!]]
Tsk tsk, the cost of a super first-class warship is no less than a modern aircraft carrier. So expensive!]
[It's so expensive. Only an economic model like a joint stock company can support the rapid development of the shipbuilding industry. Sea Carriage? Husband.]
[? Sailing battle? Warships only needed to consume wood that had been around for hundreds of years, while steam and internal combustion warships needed to burn coal and oil that had been around for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years.]
[A hundred-year-old navy. From the selection of materials to the construction, if you want a truly excellent fleet, it usually takes hundreds of years. Think about the tree in Denmark. It has been planted for hundreds of years and has become mature. Ironclad? The era of ships, hahaha.?]
[Danmark: I just planted the oak tree, and it's already a nuclear aircraft carrier?]？]
[I think, compared to? Modern sea? The wooden sailboats had a beauty of harmony between man and nature, while the steamships and Dreadnaughts behind them had a beauty that reflected the imagination of humans.?]
[Tsk tsk, Zhu Weichu ordered Hipper's admiral-class Suzhou to open fire. This wooden sailboat probably won't be able to withstand a single shell. This is a proper dimensional reduction attack.]]
[That's why we still have to industrialize and build a bigger battleship, the Yamato class and the Montana-class, to fight the Anza!]]
Be bold. A 100,000-ton battleship equipped with 600mm cannons. If anyone doesn't agree, I'll fire one shot. If one shot doesn't work, I'll fire ten shots! [Hahaha]
A hundred thousand tons? He might as well be bolder. 150,000 tons, equipped with a double-mounted 800mm cannon, that would be a man's romance!]
Uh, that's too much. The era of aircraft carriers has arrived.]
[Tsk, aircraft carriers are so annoying. Battleships are more satisfying!]]
Hong ~
Suddenly, a thunderous sound echoed across the sea. It was the Hipper admiral-class heavy patrol that had opened fire.
It was 202.8 meters long and 21.3 meters wide. It had a standard displacement of 14050 tons and a full-load displacement of 18208 tons. It was equipped with a 203.2 mm main gun and was installed on four double turrets. The layout was two in front and two in the back. The maximum range was 33.5 kilometers and the shell weighed 122 kilograms.
Even though the caliber was small, only half of the main cannon of Howard, it was still a piece of cake to hit the wooden sailboat.
Van Persie, the commander of the fleet of the Dutch East India Company, had long been scared to death. From the moment he saw the rumored " devil ship " in Europe, he knew that he had to pay a price today.
Boom!
A cannonball fell from the sky and smashed into the water less than 200 meters away from the flagship, Alhu. It exploded into a towering water column, forming an artificial waterfall in the air and giving the Alhu artificial rain.
This power, this terrifying explosion scene, the Dutch navy, who had originally wanted to fight to the death, fell silent and let the water splash over their heads.
Resist? Forget it! Judging from the power of the cannonball, it could destroy the battleship that they were so proud of with one shot.
"Stop, don't run, and don't resist. The Ming army should just want to rob some property!”
As Van Persie shouted, the fleet stopped and stood on the deck obediently, waiting for the Ming army's devil ship to come over.
Zhu Weichu saw that the Dutch fleet was so sensible, so he ordered the five warships to split up and surround the Dutch fleet.
Van Persie's scalp went numb as he watched the huge Iowa-class ship slowly approach. He felt his soul tremble.
God, could humans really build this steel warship?
"Who is the fleet commander? Stand out!"
