Chapter 595: Ready to sail!

Before coming, he received an order to report to the fleet commander on time. Nothing was said on the order, and he himself was at a loss. Now Chen De's words make him feel very excited. Fastest update

Sail around the world!

Become the first group of Chinese to complete circumnavigation!

This is the supreme glory!

With the exchanges between the East and the West, the senior officers of the Southeast Navy were generally knowledgeable and learned that the first team in the world to complete the circumnavigation was the team of the Spanish Magellan, and then many saffrons also traveled all over the world.

First white, now it's our Chinese turn to become famous!

In an instant, a wave of blood rushed into my heart, and Hong Xi said incoherently in official language: "Resolutely complete the task!"

Seeing his excitement, Chen De calmly said: "Come on, drink tea!"

Drinking tea, Hong Xiguan calmed down and listened to Chen De talking about the origin of the matter: "We are attacking Southeast Asia, and the Indian Ocean will sooner or later be ours. Our military is unstoppable, and our strength is extremely powerful!"

It is said that the two people in the house nod frequently. They are all active participants in the Chinese foreign war. It will not be annoying to talk about their own achievements!

Chen De even bluntly said: "Under the leadership of the leader, we go from one victory to another. The leader is the son of God. When his hand reaches out to the ocean, the entire ocean trembles under his power, and the waves are magnificent. , The waves are rolling!"

All the people looked in agreement. They followed the leader and saw that he grew up with a population of only 3,000. He started from Taiwan on a deserted island. Today, it occupies Taiwan and the vast Southeast Asia, with a population of 500. A multitude of thousands.

Chen De took a sip of green tea and continued: "He instructed that what Hong Maofan can do, we can also do it, it’s time to sail around the world. For you, it’s the history of history, and for me to come to the southeast government. Said that it will greatly encourage morale, show that we Chinese are not inferior to the red hair fan, it will make us rejoice, and we will be more confident!"

He kept talking about the benefits of circumnavigating around the world, and then Gan Hui took out a map of the world where the basic road map had been drawn.

Starting from the City of Rising Sun, passing through the Strait of Malacca, heading straight to Sri Lanka, arriving at Madras, India, and visiting the British.

Travel along the Asan Continent to visit the Mughal Empire, then enter the Red Sea, go straight to Egypt, and visit the Ottoman Empire.

To re-enter the Red Sea, I just keep on rushing along the east coastline of Africa, past the Cape of Good Hope, and then along the west coastline of Africa to Europa.

After visiting the countries of the Ramblas, I will rest in the Netherlands and set off again, first walking the west coastline of Africa, then crossing the Atlantic Ocean to South America.

Sail along the east coastline of South America, cross Cape Horn, or follow the west coastline of South America to Mexico, take the Spanish silver line, cross the Pacific Ocean, and arrive at Luzon!

When you arrive in Luzon, you are basically home!

"Your voyage around the world is not just going around the earth, but also visiting many countries and regions. To be honest, this route is unscientific!" Gan Hui said.

"This is not only an honor, but also a challenge!" Chen De has foreseen the difficulty of this trip: "The unpredictable route, the pirates and the unpredictable orphans, and the rulers of various countries, plus ship conditions, supplies, etc. Wait, you can only overcome all difficulties on your own, and not lose the reputation of my Southeast Mansion!"

Hong Xiguan's face quickly became serious, and he firmly said: "Guaranteed to complete the task!"

Chen De said: "I believe you will also be able to complete the task!"

Gan Hui asked an important question: "Who do you plan to partner with?"

Official Hong Xi asked, "How many ships are you going to give me?"

"Three!" Gan Hui put up three fingers and said: "Three is auspicious number, no matter how many words it is difficult to control."

Official Hong Xi was very clever and said: "Two Kaohsiung-class cruise ships and one Yasha-class supply ship?"

"Exactly!" Gan Hui gave him a compliment.

Ocean navigation is to visit, not to fight, and it is impossible to send battleships. Kaohsiung-class cruisers have speed and firepower. Yasha-class supply ships belong to the category of fifth-class cruise ships and are more suitable for supply.

"Then I will..." Official Hong Xi thought for a while, and said immediately: "Yan Zhang and Hao Sizhong, plus Kostit as the chief of staff."

Chen De said with a smile on his face: "A smart choice!"

Both Yan Zhang and Hao Sizhong were members of the envoy who had visited Luzon Spaniards for the first time with official Hong Xi. At that time, official Hong Xi was the envoy, and Yan Zhang and Hao Sizhong were deputy envoys. Now they are partnering again.

Yan Zhang's artillery skills were good, he was a member of the Yan family, and he was sent out to relieve the leaders.

Hao Sizhong is calm and steady. He has rich experience. He has worked in cruise ships, supply ships, and served as a staff officer in the general staff. He is now the captain of a battleship and has a high reputation in the army. He is two commanders in general. All know each other.

As for Kostit, who is now the captain of a new class of battleship, he is mainly experienced in sailing and has been to many places, so he can draw on his experience.

"Don't say anything, you pick the ship, you pick the man, and we give you a military order. It's June. You will complete all the preparations in one month. Set sail in early July, when the leader will do it for you!" Chen De did not waste time at all, and immediately took the order form and drafted the order on it.

He waved the brush and finished it in a moment, after which he signed and sealed it.

Then Gan Hui also took out his seal, signed and sealed it.

Officer Hong Xi held the letter of command in both hands, but appointed him as the commander-in-chief of voyages around the world, visiting foreign fleet commanders, envoys of the Southeast Mansion, Yan Zhang and Hao Sizhong as deputy envoys, and Kostit as the chief of staff of the fleet for voyages around the world. .

In addition to the signatures and seals of Chen and Gan, the signatures and seals of Yan Changwu have long been there!

...

When Hong Xi went out of the commander's office and went downstairs, his footsteps were brisk, like stepping on a spring!

However, after leaving the headquarters ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, his mood completely calmed down, and he let the taxi ride to the Rising Sun Military Port. He was ready to choose a suitable cruise ship. It was not difficult. After all, he had also worked on cruise ships.

He is very busy, looking for battleships and selecting crews to help.

In about a week, Yan Zhang, Hao Sizhong, and Kostit came one after another. Everyone got together and was very excited!

If this important task can be successfully completed, then the general history will be famous forever!

So these four members formed an extremely firm group, agreed to overcome all difficulties and strive to complete the task!

At the same time, three warships were also found, namely Kaohsiung No. 72 and No. 78, plus the Yasha 12, and the personnel were also selected. There are experienced officers and soldiers in each key position, and there are backups.

They were all veterans in the cruise training for a week. After a week of running-in, they were able to control the warships very skillfully.

Thanks to the standardization of equipment in the Southeast Prefecture and the use of warships of the same level, the officers and soldiers have no problem using them.

Then the three battleships were put into the dock for maintenance for a week. The best maintenance master was responsible for removing the marine life on the ship, maintaining and maintaining the various parts of the hull and the artillery, ok!

It took three days to load arms and cargo. The Yasha-class supply ships mainly transport supplies, as well as prepare top-quality spices and tea, and transport them to Europe for sale. Maybe the military expenses for this voyage will be recovered!

Therefore, the profit of ocean trade is indeed high.

Hong Xiguan and others completed the preparations for the sailing with a whirlwind style, and everything is ready, just wait for the order!
