Daming Military Empire

Chapter 660 Final Reward, Ironclad Battleship
March 17th, [-]th year of Chongzheng, seemed to be a very ordinary day for Zhu Cijiong. As usual, he got up early, went to the early court, and then came to the imperial study to start dealing with military affairs.

Everything is so normal, without the slightest disturbance.

Recently, the situation on the front line is very good. The news of the French bastion in the Pyrenees Mountains has been conquered. It should only be a matter of time before the entire Pyrenees Mountains is occupied and the offensive and defensive situation in Western France is reversed.

Zhu Cijiong began to turn his attention to other places. A little to the right is the Eurasian Railway. However, the distance of a finger on the map represents thousands of miles. The Eurasian Railway cannot be built in the Holy Roman Empire in the short term. Don't think about it all the way for the time being.

A little further to the right is Tsarist Russia, and Siberia is freezing the world right now, so there is nothing to think about for the time being.

Going to the right, crossing the whole of Siberia, and crossing the Bering Strait, is the American continent. He has plans to start overseas colonization from here, but now Daming is not very clear about the situation there, where are the indigenous people? There are traces of great powers in the territory, and it is not even known where it is suitable to build a port.

He had never been to America in his previous life, and he didn't have any intuitive knowledge of the topography there, so he couldn't make random impressions and send people to build a port!

If he is lucky, he can choose a place that is suitable for building a port. If he chooses a place that is not suitable for building a port at all, it will be a waste of time and money.

Therefore, he sent a large-scale expedition led by officials from the Ministry of Industry, including Jinyiwei spies, army, navy super battleships and armed Fuchuan to explore the east coast of the American continent.

The development of the American continent did not happen overnight. First of all, a port and naval base must be established so that the Ming army can have a foothold.

As for building a railway directly from the Bering Strait, that is unrealistic. Whether it is building bridges at sea or building subsea tunnels, Ming Dynasty does not have the technology now.

Besides, it is close to the Arctic Circle, and it is frozen for almost half of the year, so building a railway is a thankless task.

He planned to find a suitable port and naval base below the frozen line, and then use that as the center to conduct investigations, and slowly spread to the north and south sides with the railway line.

However, these can only be unfolded after the expedition team returns, so there is no need to think about it for the time being.

Going further east, crossing the American continent and returning to the front line of Europe and Africa, now the naval strength of Daming there is not enough to compete with the anti-Habsburg alliance powers, it seems that there is nothing to do there for the time being, he can't let Zheng Chenggong Take a risk!

After staring at the world map for a few laps, Zhu Cijiong realized that there was really nothing to do right now, not that Daming had already dominated the world, the main reason was that the timing was wrong.

He originally wanted to rest for a while and then fight the decisive battle with the Anti-Habsburg Alliance, but who knew that the Anti-Habsburg Alliance would strike first, which caught him off guard and was not yet fully prepared.

Since there is nothing to do, let’s go to the harem. Right now, the harem is full of princes and princesses, and there are lots of laughter and laughter. When he is free, he basically stays there, teasing his children and walking the dog. It is also very happy for him. things.

He had just stood up and was about to greet Cao Huachun to drive in the harem, when the long-lost voice of the beauty of the system suddenly sounded in his mind: "Ding Dong, congratulations on completing the final glory mission to rewrite history, and now the reward: blueprint of the iron-clad battleship."

Zhu Cijiong only felt that his head was as heavy as lead, and he couldn't help falling back on the chair. At this time, countless drawings and materials were pouring into his mind: what ironclad battleship, what electric welding machine, what rivets, what lifting Equipment, etc., everything, it's like a small encyclopedia.

The beauty of the system has already said that this is the last glory mission, so there is more knowledge infused, second only to the last glory reward, but it seems that some knowledge has overlapped with the knowledge he has mastered in later generations, maybe this thing is just like copying It's like pasting, the original ones don't need to take up space, and he didn't roll his eyes like he was poured last time.

This time, he just felt a little uncomfortable.

After an unknown amount of time, the system finally stopped perfusing.

The beauty of the system is the same as before, and then reminded: "Ding Dong, friendly reminder: the glory mission is over, and the system rewards are over! The reminder is over, I wish you a happy game."

This is the end?Disappeared without even saying hello?

Zhu Cijiong sat there motionless, extremely depressed, a trace of sadness slowly appeared on his face, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Ugh"

He didn't think about the Ironclad Battleship at the moment, and he didn't even care much about the departure of the beauty of the system, because he knew why the last reward was issued today.

Today in the history of later generations, that is, today of the Chongzhen Dynasty, is the day when Chongzhen hanged himself, and it is also the time when the Ming Dynasty perished!

He passed the most painful moment unknowingly, and he has completely rewritten the history of the Ming Dynasty!
Now, instead of perishing, Daming has become extremely powerful. Looking at the world, who can compete with Daming now!

The current Ming Dynasty has the largest territory, the largest population, and the most advanced technology. It is only a matter of time before defeating the great powers and dominating the world!

At this moment, he should probably be proud.

At this moment, he should probably be proud.

However, he was inexplicably sad.

Perhaps, the history of the Chongzhen Dynasty was too tragic.

Perhaps, this day in the Chongzhen Dynasty was really too bleak.

He empathizes.

He is very sad.

He always wanted to do something to make up for this regret.

After a long silence, he finally stood up again and said loudly to the door: "Cao Huachun."

Cao Huachun walked in quickly, bowing as always, and said respectfully: "My minister is here."

Zhu Cijiong said in a deep voice full of vicissitudes: "Send someone to invite King Xin, Princess Xin, and all my brothers and sisters to come over for a gathering; in addition, send someone to inform the Queen Mother, Queen, and Imperial Concubine, The imperial concubine, and all the princes and princesses, will have a meal with Uncle Wu's family at noon today; count the number of people and see how many people there are in total, let the imperial dining room prepare it, choose the best ingredients, and cook a few tables of banquets, Let’s hold a banquet in Kunning Palace, let’s go.”

Why did the emperor suddenly think of throwing a banquet to invite Xin Wang's family? It seems that the Chinese New Year has never been so grand, right?

Although Cao Huachun was puzzled in his heart, he didn't ask anything. He just froze for a moment, then bowed his hands and went to make arrangements.

Zhu Cijiong sat down again, just sitting there blankly.

Scenes of the past emerged in his mind, mainly after his rebirth. The previous life was too long and gradually became blurred. The experience of this life is the main theme in his mind.

I have finally changed history, my Ming Dynasty has not perished, my Ming Dynasty will not perish!
