Chapter 765: Qiongya and Yizhou

If it is really necessary to manufacture iron boats, then it is a steam engine, and the current upper limit of the technology tree does not allow the manufacture of steam engines.

"After this construction is completed, it will definitely become the best giant ship in the whole big man, plus some other fleets, it can really be called crushing against other naval forces."

Zhou Yu said in surprise, the awe towards Shuobai City has deepened at this time.

In fact, in the past, he often visited other places, which also had many exquisite ships, but no matter how they were compared, they were not as good as the things in the Shuobai Dock.

Every ship here can almost be described as perfect, and now it has become something like an arsenal, and the division of labor has been arranged to the extreme.

After all, Adam Smith also said in The Wealth of Nations that the division of labor is actually a miracle created by human beings, and this shipyard is the same now.

The entire shipyard is like a machine, running day and night, and countless shipbuilders are jumping back and forth on large or small ships, or carving.

"You continue to watch here, I just go back first."

After Qin Shuo saw Zhou Yu's expression, a trace of fullness actually appeared on his face.

meaning.

Just like there is no knight who does not love steeds, the same is true that there is no navy who does not love such powerful ships. After all, this is what they will survive and fight for in the future.

"Okay, my lord, you go back first."

Zhou Yu also nodded, and then started walking around the shipyard, looking around, as if he couldn't get enough of everything.

Qin Shuo also directly exited his room at this time, and then came to the meeting hall behind, as if he wanted to discuss something together.

Now all the counselors are gathered here. In fact, they all want to discuss the next step. After all, the unification of Yangzhou has been completed now, so the next step is to look at the world.

Qin Shuo actually wants to develop the navy now because he has acquired Xuzhou and has already unified Yangzhou. In this way, almost the entire coastline like a big man is occupied by himself.

The coastline of the Great Han itself is very narrow and long. Since it is already half of it, it shows a problem. I have already completed a quarter of the unified Great Han.

Now I can let go of the matter of the Central Plains a little bit, and my goal now is two small islands.

"What do you think? Joan

Does Ya still have Yizhou? "

Qin Shuo glanced at the people under his seat, and also asked.

"Actually, I don't think these two places are too important. Right now, it's best to take advantage of the victory and chase after Yuan Shu, directly crushing Yuan Shu to death, or directly attacking Jingzhou, and even attacking Yizhou. Good thing."

Xi Zhicai also said that he didn't know why Qin Shuo wanted to find these two places.

In fact, whether it is from the geographical location or from other points of view, this place is not too good, it is even a dispensable place.

Therefore, according to Xi Zhicai's thinking, it is dispensable at all. Regarding this point, Qin Shuo actually didn't say anything.

"Although I don't know what the lord means, but I feel that what Zhicai said actually has some truth, but if you send troops to Qiongya now, although you can take the lead in occupying there, you will still have to fight the natives there. Yes, there simply aren’t many resources there.”

Yan Xiang on the side also spoke and nodded.

"Actually, there are resources in this place. In fact, I heard it from others before that there is actually a kind of beast on this island, and it is also amazing.

For those who ride, it is also very good to use this kind of beast as a mount. Is this what the lord means? "

Guo Jia also had some doubts, so after glancing at Qin Shuo, he asked suspiciously.

"Actually, Feng Xiao, you are right now, but you are only right. This is only one of the reasons. In addition, there are some important reasons, which are to prevent the invasion of foreign enemies, and there are other reasons. We can advance, attack, retreat, or defend, and we can take the initiative to attack in the future, and then occupy those foreign enemies."

After Qin Shuo glanced at Guo Jia, he spoke.

"But do we have any foreign enemies now? Even if my big man is exhausted now, there are still talents like our lord here. How dare they do this?"

A military general on the side obviously had some doubts, so he also spoke.

"This is your problem. You should know more about the current world. It is not that simple. After two years, you will know that there is no shortage of powerful nations in this world, and even The sum of those inferior nations can all be stronger than our Huaxia."

After Qin Shuo glanced at the general, he also spoke.

After hearing these words, in fact, everyone's

The face is cloudy and uncertain

Well, there are some people who obviously don't believe it, but there are some people who obviously believe in what Qin Shuo said. These two kinds of people actually exist.

"In fact, these two islands still have many rare treasures that we don't have here, as well as many beasts that can be ridden. We can take advantage of this when the time comes. As for those barbarian tribes, we don't have to worry about it." Yes, Daddy said to fight magic with magic."

Qin Shuo looked at the crowd and spoke.

Everyone also asked.

"That is to say, we can also use barbarians to deal with barbarians. We can find those southern barbarians from Yizhou and use them to deal with them. Now they should have trained a lot of elephant soldiers, right? "

After Qin Shuo smiled, he spoke.

"A lot of them have been trained now, and it should be possible to deal with those barbarians now, but once they are occupied, can we really reap them?"

A counselor on the side also spoke.

"What we are looking at is not what is happening now, but what is going to happen in the future. This thing is definitely going to be done. This time I came to you and asked you to ask you, but I still have to look at it. You will understand in the future What do I mean."

After talking for a while, Qin Shuo spoke.
