Chapter 2203: Sail to South Africa
set sail!
At seven o'clock in the morning, a grand worship ceremony was held on the dock.
The quay area is under martial law, and it is not allowed to walk around. The Chinese plainclothes and Moroccan are responsible for guarding the outer area. The military police are in the middle. The inner circle is the imperial guard wearing a yellow ribbon. This is specially assigned to the Admiral's card. Bot is used for the facade.
The rulers of China all have the same virtue. Yan Changwu once sang "...the beauty of the colorful colors is because it does not have a certain color..."
As soon as the voice of fell, he separated the yellow color, which was used exclusively by him and the royal family in the Southern China Empire, symbolizing dignity and authority, and was not used by the people!
Crossing Xiaoqiang, who was deeply influenced by the spirit of freedom, equality and fraternity, how can he build an empire? What he should build is a republic where everyone is equal
In the end, he established an empire and asked everyone to bow down to him. At the same time, he separated yellow from the colorful colors, which was exclusively for the royal family.
The Imperial Guard is the emperor's own army. It is their honor to be sent to the marshal and the general to serve as the guard. No other officer is treated like this. Of course, there are special agents in the Imperial Guard to monitor the generals.
Becky was on the deck of "Nanyun 113" with his own binoculars to watch the excitement on the pier. He saw Admiral Cabot as the chief priest, and he was making a toast on the ground. He couldn't help but interact with the rest of the ship. People laughed.
Baipi came to worship the Chinese gods and was quite happy.
The strange thing is that after the prayers are efficacious, it seems that Chinese gods speak very well!
After worshipping the heaven and the earth and worshiping the gods, the ships sailed in turn, first the combat ship, and then the auxiliary ship. The "Nanyun 113" did not move until noon.
Becky watched by the bulwark. After a while, he lost interest and went back to rest in the cabin.
It’s too slow, it starts slowly, and it takes a lot of time for a large ship of thousands of tons to get up on the tugboat and wind.
It was first dragged out of the port by the tugboat, and it was still towed for a while, so that it had the upper hand, very slowly.
But according to the crew, it is faster than before. The big ships in the past often left the port without tugboats. It was purely a matter of watching the wind for food, relying on the wind to get on the gear, and the time was longer, and sometimes it was impossible to leave the port in a day.
So the boat boss’s experience is very useful. They watch the wind and see the clouds, know when there is wind, and take advantage of the situation to drive the boat out.
It is much better now. There is a tugboat in the port, which can be left at any time and towed outside the port. If there is no wind, then tow it out.
There are tugboats in big ports, that is, the kind of oars and dragon boats, two rows of oars are propped out, and they are rowed together as power to drag the boat.
It is conceivable that to tow a large ship of thousands of tons, the tugboat must be large and the number of oarsmen must be used.
There are twenty to thirty tugboats in the port of Colombo, and there are as many as six thousand oarsmen!
Changed as Qian Ming, because of the backward productivity, I can't afford so many oarsmen.
But the South China Empire is rich in wealth, and the productivity is quite developed. Money, food, and materials are not scarce. The key is that the oarsmen are cheap!
The oarsmen of the South China Empire east of India are mostly Asan. The cost of hiring them is about ten silver dollars a year.
The oarsmen in the west of India have a large number of slaves. Their operating costs are at most half the value of Ah San, which is horribly low.
Nowadays, the Chinese are seriously reversing slavery. Those slaves are Baipi, Baotou, Persians, third brothers, and tribes... For the management of slaves, His Majesty has promoted the "outsourcing" management method like a genius, that is to say, the establishment of a For a series of slave outsourcing companies, the employer only needs to sign a contract with the outsourcing company, responsible for payment and supervision, and the management is done by the outsourcing company.
The slave outsourcing company has enough experience and talents to manage the slaves properly, even if he is a bear, he can admit that he is a rabbit!
Many of the company’s management are from Baipi or Baotou slave owners. They have rich experience in managing slaves, and it’s easy to manage the oarsmen.
After the speed of "Nanyun 113" slowly increased, Beck could not help being surprised by the speed of the big ship. When its sails were wide, the ship seemed to have left the sea, as if sailing without any resistance. With.
In general, Becky’s life on the "Nanyun 113" is still happy. He has a hammock in the cabin and is surrounded by officers, unlike the soldiers who live together in a crowd.
The officers are of higher quality, and there is no such noise as the soldiers, and they can communicate better with Becky, and Becky also learned a lot of naval knowledge from them.
The life on the boat, Becky has adapted, but fortunately he is used to business trips. He used to run around when he was employed in Nanjing, and he was quite used to the days when he was home in the world and wandered everywhere.
The key is to eat and drink well. As a war correspondent, he enjoys the treatment of an officer, so when he sends out alcohol on the ship, he has 300 ml of alcohol---300 ml for officers and 250 ml for soldiers. Don’t look at the extra 50 ml. That's terrible!
When the ship sails for a long time, the water is not durable, and water is necessary for survival. Therefore, the South China Fleet has become the first fleet in the world to serve naval officers and soldiers every day as a water intake.
Liquor is rum. It is a sacred moment on a warship to send out water-blended wine to the officers and soldiers every day.
It is said that the Daming Navy also wanted to imitate the South China Empire to form an ocean-going fleet. As a result, their military official screamed when they heard that the fleet had to be rationed so much.
No way, I can’t afford it!
In the end, the Daming Navy was just an offshore fleet. They wanted to send people to the Americas, and they had to rely on the help of the South China Fleet.
When there is daily supply on the shore, Betsy has fresh meat, including red meat, poultry, fish, etc., to eat in rotation, including lamb, beef, pork and chicken, duck and various fish, as well as fresh vegetables and fruits. When there is no shore supply, they are biscuits, cakes, corned beef, dried pork, dried fruits, jams, dried fruits and dried vegetables~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Every once in a while, the chef will use fresh water to cook the dried vegetables. Become the second most popular dish.
The most popular dish is fashui bean sprouts, hahaha, a Chinese specialty!
For the Chinese people to grow bean sprouts is simply an innate ability. If they are replaced with Hong Maofan, they don't have this ability. To be honest, Hong Maofan has a strong endurance. They eat insect-growing biscuits, smelly water and hard. But it's incredible that you can survive as a brick bacon!
The words about Hong Maofan’s endurance come from Admiral Cabot. As an authentic white skin, he likes to eat the pork stewed sauerkraut cooked by the chef on the ship. The pork stewed sauerkraut made by his chef tastes soft and delicious. , Sour and fragrant, the pork is plentiful without mutton, the meat is soft and fragrant, fat but not greasy.
There is also Dongpo meat, this is a hard dish, Betsy had eaten it on the boat, I really appreciate it!
The best thing is the treatment of officers. Tea and fodder are often prepared with fresh water. They are made from the water distilling machine on the ship, which is very precious.
He ate and slept on the boat, and ate when he slept, and read a book in his free time.
The worship of gods took effect. There was no big wind and waves, and no one did not have long eyes to attack them. About dozens of days later, he arrived on the coast of South Africa with the boat on May 26. At this time, the Chinese and Baipi had already fought. A pot of porridge!
