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

Wei Xiaobao went on to say: "After achieving a major breakthrough in the military field, the Heaven and Earth Alliance successfully overthrew the military and political rule of the Tokugawa shogunate, ending a century of oppression of the Japanese people, and also ending the turbulent Warring States period that lasted for more than 300 years in Japan.

This great victory not only achieved the great unification of Japan, but also brought peace and stability to it. With the strong support of the Federation of Heaven and Earth, Japan quickly restored and developed its national economy.

In the organizational structure of the Tiandi Federation, the new countries of Japan, Goryeo and the Mongolian Junggar tribe have joined, further consolidating the Federation's position in East Asia. The addition of these countries has made the Federation more diverse and dynamic, and jointly promoted the prosperity and development of the region.

In terms of economy, the policy of reducing rent and replacing crops has been fully promoted in Japan and Goryeo. It is expected that next year they will be able to achieve food self-sufficiency and get rid of their dependence on external food supply.

At the same time, cash crops such as cotton and soybeans are also widely planted across the country, providing more raw material resources for the domestic market.

The production and sales of some civilian industrial products were promising. Many commodities were sold to China and Southeast Asian countries. European merchants also began to go in and out of Shuri Port, bringing Ryukyu-produced commodities to all parts of the world.

There are two new economic experimental zones, namely the Osumi Economic Experimental Zone in Wakoku, which has been completed and put into use, and the Incheon Economic Experimental Zone, which is under intensive construction.

These two new economic experimental zones will become important support points for the future economic development of our federation.

Looking ahead to next year, it will be a critical year for our federal government to fully promote economic development.

First, we plan to incorporate Dongzhou Island into the federal system and set up a main economic experimental zone there. At the same time, we are also looking at Jinxia Island in Huaxia and considering setting up another main economic experimental zone there. If all goes well, when conditions are ripe, we also plan to incorporate Southeast Asian countries into the federal system to further expand our influence and economic strength.

Our fleet will go on a long voyage next year to Western Europe to develop more federation member states. This is an action of great significance that will further expand the influence and strength of the Federation of Heaven and Earth. Through cooperation and exchanges with other countries, we will promote economic growth, strengthen cultural exchanges, promote scientific and technological progress, and bring more opportunities and challenges to the Federation of Heaven and Earth.

Finally, I sincerely wish the Federation of Heaven and Earth will be more prosperous in the coming year! May our country achieve greater success in the new year and the people live a happy life. At the same time, I also extend New Year's blessings to the workers, farmers, businessmen, students and experts and professors in various fields who are fighting and working on all fronts of the Federation of Heaven and Earth! You are the backbone of national construction. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. I hope you will continue to work hard in the new year and contribute your own strength to the realization of personal dreams and national development.

In addition, I would like to extend New Year greetings to the army, navy, and city defense forces of the Tiandi Army! You are the guardians of national security, protecting the borders and territories of the motherland. Thank you for your bravery and loyalty. I hope you will maintain high morale in the new year and make greater contributions to the security and stability of the country.

Finally, I would also like to express my sincere New Year's greetings to the officials of the federal government and the officers and soldiers of the Tiandi Federation! You shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading and managing the country and are the promoters of national development. I hope that you will hold yourselves to a higher standard in the new year, seek the well-being of the country and the people, and lead the Tiandi Federation to a better future.

Let us welcome the coming of the new year together, work together and create a better tomorrow! "

After Wei Xiaobao finished his New Year's speech, thunderous applause broke out from the audience! People stood up and applauded, expressing their respect and support for the president. The whole scene was warm and exciting, and everyone was full of expectations and confidence for the future.

Just as Wei Xiaobao went to wish New Year's greetings to the front-line staff early in the morning, the multinational fleet, which had lost more than a dozen ships, could no longer bear this humiliation, and after the river fog dissipated, it dispatched more than 500 ships ranging from 1200 tons to tons to sail upstream of the Yangtze River.

Since they were sailing upstream and the wind was blowing against the current, the speed of these boats was not very fast. But they were not in a hurry because they knew that as long as they kept going upstream, they would encounter the ships of the Jiangnan Navy.

The Jiangnan Navy's ships were all small ships, none of which could compare to their large ships. Therefore, they only needed to wait for a suitable opportunity to launch an attack and destroy the Jiangnan Navy in one fell swoop.

The closer the Yangtze River gets to the sea, the calmer the water flow. Although it is winter now and the wind is blowing from the northwest on the river, the ships of the multinational fleet are still sailing against the wind.

But these sailors who travel around the world are very experienced. Based on Bernoulli's principle, they make full use of the relationship between wind speed, flow speed and pressure, take an S-shaped route, and still maintain a headwind and upstream speed of 3 knots on the river.

At noon, the multinational fleet, which had sailed upstream for four hours, finally discovered the Jiangnan Navy's fleet.

At this time, the two ships were less than five miles apart, and both sides could see each other clearly. The Jiangnan Navy's fleet consisted of dozens of small boats, the largest of which was no more than 300 tons, and the smallest was only a few dozen tons.

They looked shabby and as if they would sink at any time. The multinational fleet consisted of dozens of large ships, the largest of which was over a thousand tons, and the smallest was over five hundred tons. They looked majestic and menacing.

Zhang Zaikui, commander-in-chief of the navy, knew clearly that the ships on their side were all small vessels that sailed on inland rivers, and when the wind and the current were favorable, their speed was much faster than that of the enemy's ships.

However, once they encounter headwinds and headwinds, their disadvantages will become apparent.

Because their sails were small, the reaction force on the negative flow side of the sails was relatively small, so they lacked the power to sail against the wind. If they chose to escape upstream, it would be equivalent to exposing their weaknesses to the enemy, and they would only be able to passively take the beating. Therefore, he decided to take the initiative.

At this time, the Jiangnan Navy's blasting ships had been exhausted in the early morning battle.

There are now thirteen bluffing ships, fourteen sand ships, eight silk-catching ships, forty-four patrol ships and more than ten net-carrying ships left.

The hu ships, sand ships and silk ships were equipped with weapons such as red cannons and French cannons.

However, due to the small hull and limited earthquake resistance, the caliber of these artillery pieces is relatively small, similar to the small-caliber artillery used in land warfare.

Although their range can reach about three thousand meters, the projectiles they fire weigh only two or three kilograms, which is twice as powerful as the large-caliber shells used by ships.
