Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

Wei Xiaobao nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's right. In this way, we can not only be self-sufficient, but also export to other countries in exchange for resources. However, we must pay attention to quality issues and not ignore quality in pursuit of quantity."

Qiu Daoji said quickly: "Don't worry, Commander, we will strictly control the quality of our products."

Then, he went on to say: "In terms of civilian products, clothes, soap, liquor, glass, cement and other products are also very abundant. Most civilian products are shipped to Japan and Southeast Asian countries for sale."

Wu Sanniang reported on the farmers' planting and breeding conditions, as well as the fishermen's income, and said that support has been provided to these industries.

Wei Xiaobao made the final speech, in which he affirmed the achievements of everyone's work in the past six months and also raised expectations for everyone. Now that we have an oil refinery, an internal combustion engine plant, and a tractor plant, we can vigorously develop agricultural machinery and improve the quality of agricultural production.

In terms of military, we need to produce torpedoes as soon as possible and equip them on warships. In addition, we need to recruit 20,000 field troops, so that the strength of the Tiandi Army's land force reaches 50,000 and the navy reaches 30,000.

Next, we will head to Southeast Island, and the departure time is scheduled to be within three months!

At this time, the system sound sounded.

【ding dong】

[System mission, recapture Dongzhou Island, time limit is six months, mission reward is a diamond treasure chest. Mission penalty is to kill the host]

This is another mandatory task, and I have to do it. But even if the system does not have a task, I have to go to Southeast Island to avenge Master Chen Jinnan.

The system mission takes six months, and it takes two or three months to mass-produce torpedoes, so the attack on Southeast Island only needs one month.

Wei Xiaobao plans to spend three months to pick up his wife, children, mother and Master Jiunan who are still in China.

Among the relatives who stayed in China, Mom and Hutou are in the Lichunyuan in Yangzhou, Master Jiunan and Tongchui are in Zhongnan Mountain, Jianning and Shuangshuang are in the palace, Zeng Rou is most likely in the Wangwu Sect, Mu Jianping is probably mixed with the remnants of the Mu Mansion, and the whereabouts of A Ke is the most uncertain, so we can only ask her mother Chen Yuanyuan about the situation.

Chen Yuanyuan became a nun at Tianan Temple in Sizhou Prefecture (now in Kegong County, Guizhou Province), so the first stop is Tianan Temple.

After determining the destination, Wei Xiaobao set out the next day with the guard regiment and Ling Zhao's guard regiment. They were accompanied by Su Quan, Shuang'er, Ling Zhao, and Lu Siniang. He Ti Shou stayed in Wei's mansion to practice the "Fire Control Technique", and Xu Xueting was assigned to serve in the Tiandi Army.

This time three warships were dispatched, with the cruiser 101 named Changjiang as the flagship, and the 201 Julong and 202 Qinglong accompanying.

A fleet consisting of three huge ships set off towards Qinzhou City Defense Port in a mighty manner. Their momentum was so huge that it was like a group of steel monsters galloping on the sea.

.........

On this day, the sun was shining, the wind was gentle, and the sea was as calm as a mirror. The Grand Chamberlain Duolong sat on a 500-ton Fuchuan warship and sailed to Tongchi Island. The warship was magnificent, with sails fluttering in the wind and exquisite patterns carved on the bow, showing the majesty and glory of the royal family.

As the warship approached Tongchi Island, the crew began to get busy. The sentry on the watchtower kept a close eye on the front, alert for possible dangers. Suddenly, three shells came from a distance and landed on the water near the warship, splashing huge water. The warship shook violently and was almost overturned. Duolong grabbed the handrail in horror, his face pale, and secretly thanked himself for not being hit by the shells.

The lookout on the mast found that the flag signalman was signaling at the dock on Tongchi Island, asking about the identity of the ship and the purpose of coming here. Duolong looked at the other side with a puzzled look on his face, and secretly wondered in his heart: "Could this Tongchi Island have been occupied by pirates or the navy of a certain country?" He frowned and fell into deep thought.

Duolong decided to respond to the other party's flag signal to make his identity and purpose known. He hoped to resolve misunderstandings through communication and avoid escalation of conflicts. After all, he was only here to understand the situation according to the emperor's will and did not want to conflict with anyone.

As the flag signals were transmitted, Doron expected the other party to understand their intentions and give a positive response.

However, at this moment, Duolong suddenly found that the other party's ship began to move. He couldn't help but feel a little alert, not knowing what the other party was going to do. He stared at the ship closely, trying to guess the other party's intentions from its movements.

At the same time, the flag signal soldiers on the lookout were also paying close attention to the enemy's actions. They quickly passed the information about the Qing warships to the commander on the island.

The number of Tiandi Army stationed on Tongchi Island was not large, only one company of soldiers. This company was once a squad of the Ryukyu Army, and later it was transferred to the Castle Defense Army under the Tiandi Army as a whole to perform garrison duties.

After receiving the news of the Qing warships, the soldiers of the Tiandi Army immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. They quickly took action to prepare for the possible threat. The soldiers took up their weapons and stood ready, waiting for the next instruction.

In this tense atmosphere, both sides are waiting for each other's reaction. A possible conflict seems to be imminent, while Duolong tries to remain calm, hoping to find a peaceful solution to the problem.

After more than half a year of reorganization, the number of city defense troops under the Tiandi Army has reached 50,000. This army is commanded by Shangwu and has two divisions and six brigades, stationed in various cities and important ports in Ryukyu. Their mission is to protect the security of Ryukyu, maintain social order, and be ready to respond to possible threats at any time.

Although the equipment of these city defense soldiers was not as good as that of the field army, it was also quite sophisticated. Except for the smaller number of cannons and heavy machine guns, other weapons were basically the same as those of the field army. Each soldier was equipped with a Mauser rifle to ensure their firepower output in battle.

The Tiandi Army company commander stationed on Tongchi Island was named Hu Erkui. He was young but full of vigor and vitality. When three cannon shots were heard on the dock, he was acutely aware of the enemy. He immediately ordered the entire company to assemble urgently, and quickly armed himself and ran to the dock.

On the way, the signalman came to report that a Qing warship was approaching. Upon hearing the news, Hu Erkui frowned and muttered to himself: "Why would a Qing warship come at this time?" But he did not hesitate at all and decisively ordered to speed up.

At the same time, he asked the signalman whether he had sounded the alarm to the soldiers on duty at the dock. After receiving a positive answer, Hu Erkui felt a little relieved.
