"Your Majesty, the ancestor of this humble official moved from Qi to Da Qin."

Xu Yang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, hurriedly said: "My ancestors, once served as the general of Qi State's navy.

Weichen also studied with his grandfather when he was a child, and he also knew a little about naval warships. "

"It turns out that Aiqing's family has a long history!" Ying Zigao couldn't help but secretly became excited.

He has always planned to develop the navy, build warships, and develop overseas trade.

It's a pity that Daqin was a country that rose from the inland. Although the navy is considered well-developed, they are all small boats in inland rivers.Shipping is almost nonexistent.

Although there is sea transportation in the lands of Qi, Chu, and Wuyue in the east, these areas have just been unified, and people's hearts are unstable.

I have been worrying about the lack of suitable talents!
Unexpectedly, Xu Yang, Minister of the Ministry of War in front of him, is a talent in this field!

"Your Majesty is absurd." Xu Yang said hastily, "I just know a thing or two."

"You don't have to be modest, you love me." Ying Zigao hurriedly said, "After the Great Qin ruled the world, the navies of all countries, especially Qi, Chu, Wu and Yue, were not properly dealt with.

I intend to integrate these forces to build a powerful naval army of our Great Qin! "

While talking, Ying Zigao said to Minister of the Ministry of War, "I plan to leave this matter to you!"

Hearing this, Xu Yang couldn't help but feel his heart tense, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I just listened to the few words my grandfather said casually when I was playing when I was young.

As for naval warships, I really only know the surface..."

"Is Aiqing humble again?" Ying Zigao said hurriedly, "Looking at the drawing of the warship I drew just now, what you said is accurate! Obviously you are an expert!"

"Your Majesty, I only know superficially, and I have never actually touched a navy warship."

Xu Yang couldn't help but his face tightened, and he hurriedly said: "I really don't dare to take on this important task!"

Xu Yang really didn't want to be in charge of the navy.

Now he is the Shangshu of the Ministry of War and one of the highest-ranking officials in Daqin.

He is almost 50 years old, so it can be said that he has achieved success.

It is completely possible to sit in the position of Minister of the Ministry of War. You only need to supervise your subordinates to advance the work in an orderly manner. You don't need to put in a lot of energy to stay comfortably in Xianyang.

But once the affairs of the navy and warships are taken care of, it will be quite different.

Although Daqin has always attached great importance to the power of the navy and maintained a strong navy, the strength of the navy was also among the best among all countries before the Six Kingdoms were destroyed.

But that's just the inland water army!

The warships of the navy are small, and their main combat tasks are only guarding the inland rivers, transporting food, grass and heavy troops.

And the big water army that really gallops in the great rivers and sails on the rough sea.Very different!
If you really want to be responsible, there are thousands of clues, and everything has to start from scratch.

More importantly, there are no available talents in hand!

Looking at Xu Yang's desperate refusal, Ying Zigao guessed what he was thinking.

She smiled slightly and said, "Ai Qing, you don't have to be too self-effacing. I asked you to be in charge of the navy and warships, not to let you live by the sea forever. You can also hand over specific matters to your subordinates."

Xu Yang hurriedly asked: "Then what is this Weichen doing?"

"Overall arrangements, coordinate the construction and development of water armies in various places!"

Ying Zigao hurriedly said: "Aiqing has a lot of experience in our Great Qin army, and has made many military exploits, so she is very popular!
He has also been in the Ministry of War and the Central Committee for many years, responsible for military affairs, and has a comprehensive understanding of the specific situation of our Great Qin. "

Speaking of this, Ying Zigao said with a serious face: "What's more, Aiqing's family has a long history, and she is one of the few senior officials in my Daqin who understands the navy!"

"The responsibility of commanding the navy is entrusted to you, so I can rest assured!"

"Your Majesty trusts me so much, I am really terrified!"

Ying Zigao's words made it difficult for Xu Yang to refuse.

He had to say: "Although I have only a superficial understanding of naval warships, I can only do my best!"

Looking at Xu Yang's helpless eyes, Ying Zigao couldn't help but smiled slightly, and said, "Xu Aiqing, the navy is of great significance to the future development of our Great Qin. I have high hopes for the navy!
In the future, when we conquer Baiyue in the south, I will put the navy to great use! "

Hearing this, Xu Yang couldn't help but get excited.

After the Great Qin Empire unified the world, the main battles were concentrated in the border areas.

The main goal also proposes these two directions, one is the Xiongnu in the north, and the other is the two directions of Baiyue in the south!

Now the Huns in the north have been pacified, and Baiyue in the south is waiting to be resolved.

In the future military operations of the Southern Expedition to Baiyue, once the navy is used as the main force, it will be an opportunity to make meritorious service!
As the commander of the navy, he will definitely make great contributions, earn rich rewards and great honors for the family and future generations.

Thinking of this, Xu Ming.I can't help but feel a heat in my heart!Full of heart and renewed ambition.

Immediately, he said seriously to Ying Zigao: "Your Majesty is wise! Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely do my best to bring the Great Qin Navy back into order!"

"Leave the affairs of the navy to Ai Qing, I'm relieved!"

Ying Zigao said seriously: "I plan to set up navy commanders in Qi, Chu, and Wuyue, who will be responsible for collecting and integrating the local navy and shipbuilding forces!

I will arrange for Cui Yong to be the commander of the navy in Qidi.The commanders of the navy in several other places are recommended by Aiqing! "

"Your Majesty, Dong Yu and Yang Yihua can take up this position!"

Xu Yang thought for a while, then said seriously: "Dong Yu and Yang Yihua have always been subordinates of this minister.

Bold and careful in doing things, and willing to make decisions at critical moments.Weichen is very easy to use! "

"These two people, I think they are good!" Ying Zigao nodded after thinking for a while and said, "It's just the two of them!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Seeing the talents recommended by him.Ying Zigao just thought about it for a while and immediately appointed him.

Xu Yang couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, and said hastily.

"The person recommended by Ai Qing is sure to be right!"

Ying Zi said loudly: "Tomorrow morning, I will formally announce the appointment of Ai Qing.

At that time, Aiqing will be the commander of my navy in Daqin!Ai Qing still holds the position of minister of the Ministry of War! "

Hearing that he could also serve as Minister of the Ministry of War, Xu Yang suddenly became excited!
Hastily fell to his knees.Said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!"

After sending Xu Yang away, Ying Zigao picked up the brush again, and carefully drew the figures of Fuzhou, Cantonese, sandboats and chariots in the Song Dynasty.

Huaxia not only has a long and winding coastline and countless excellent ports.There are also golden waterways like the Yangtze River and Pearl River!

Especially in the Qin Dynasty, water transportation had a huge advantage over land transportation.

Shipping needs to be developed, and inland waterway shipping should be vigorously developed!
