I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

After reviewing the memorial for half the morning, Wu Changqing stopped temporarily, preparing to relax with some entertainment.

However, after he made this decision, he found sadly that he didn't seem to have any entertainment he liked at the moment.

Some emperors liked to listen to operas, some liked to write and draw, and some liked to work as carpenters.

Wu Changqing is not interested in these, he likes movies and e-sports games.

There is no need to count on this for the time being. It will take at least another dozen years before the development of society can support the application of its film technology.

As for video games, that's even further away.

In fact, Wu Changqing is also a little interested in chess. However, as an emperor, if others dare to do their best to play chess with him, he will definitely let him, and it will be boring to play.

Could it be that my entertainment is only playing with women?

Wu Changqing couldn't help but complain to himself, he is interested in this, but it can't be too frequent, be careful that the kidneys can't stand it.

Or exercise, don't get the throne, but your body is not good, that's too sad.

Wu Changqing finally decided to exercise.

He had people get some bowstrings, and then directed some eunuchs to make two badminton rackets.

It is inconvenient to play football in the palace, and there are not so many people who can play.

I can't let those palace maids and eunuchs kick it, the picture can't bear to look directly.

Badminton is much more convenient, not only can play the role of exercise, but also relatively safe.

"Every time you catch the ball with the racket, hit the ball to the other side of the net, but not out of bounds..."

Wu Changqing explained the rules to a few guards in front of the royal guard, and they nodded. After all, this rule is also very simple, much simpler than the offside rule in football.

"Whoever comes first wins my reward of one hundred taels of silver."

Wu Changqing said.

He was afraid that these guys wouldn't dare to play with all their strength, so it would be boring.

When everyone heard it, they were eager to try, that was one hundred taels.

Moreover, as the personal soldiers who often followed Wu Changqing, they also knew that Wu Changqing was a normal person and would not kill people inexplicably like some emperors.

Therefore, they don't have to worry too much, they can play with Wu Changqing at ease.

"I'll come first."

Wu Sande said that he is now the head of the imperial guards and a distant relative of Wu Changqing.

The two came to the arranged court, and Wu Changqing started to serve, but Wu Sande missed the first ball.

He is completely inexperienced and needs to get used to it.

"Use dim sum, if you lose too badly, I will punish you to run around this Yihexuan."

Wu Changqing reminded that the other guards in front of the palace were all snickering when they heard the words.

After several attempts, Wu Sande finally mastered the skill of catching the ball.

After all, getting started with this thing is actually very simple, but anyone with a normal IQ can easily master it, but it is more difficult to master.

At the beginning, Wu Sande would only use brute force, hitting the ball out of bounds every time.

Slowly, he also found that strength is not used in this way.

He began to want to play the angle, but this requires a high level of skill and experience.

Wu Sande has only just learned, and he must be unable to compare with Wu Changqing, who was beaten down by Wu Changqing.

"It's too bad. Practice when you are resting, otherwise I won't be able to play well."

Wu Changqing threw the racket to another guard and asked them to practice first.

Bullying a rookie can only be fun for a while, but it will be boring after a long time.

Of course, he would be hard-pressed to come across this, unless there is a very smart and highly skilled guard who knows how to quietly release water during a confrontation and always lose a little to Wu Changqing.

Moreover, it must be hidden very well and cannot be discovered by Wu Changqing.

After lunch and rest, we began to meet important ministers in the afternoon.

Liu Hansan will go to Huai'an next to preside over the battle on the northern front.

Before leaving, Wu Changqing wanted to summon him once and convey some requirements to him.

For example, what to do if the Qing army suddenly attacked on a large scale, such as whether to take advantage of the opportunity to attack and so on.

"If there are no special circumstances, the main focus is to rest and wait until the weather warms up next year before a large-scale attack. After all, the current production capacity is limited and cannot provide so many materials."

Wu Changqing reminded that if Liu Han was eager to make contributions, it would be troublesome to carry out the northern expedition hastily.

Now that winter has entered, the weather is starting to get colder, not to mention the north, which is even colder.

Rushing northwards, the cotton-padded jackets at the back can't keep up, and more soldiers will freeze to death than those killed in battle.

In a war, logistics is very, very important.

Napoleon lost against Russia, and Hitler lost against the Soviet Union. One of the big reasons is that the broken place in Russia is too cold.

Russian soldiers are used to that kind of bad weather, and the troops of other countries can't stand it.

If the cotton-padded clothes cannot keep up, and the food, medicines and tools for heating cannot keep up, the army is prone to large-scale disease and death, and the combat effectiveness of the army will plummet.

"I understand."

Liu Hansan said.

After Liu Hansan left, Wang Dayong was next.

He was sent to Ningbo to preside over the southern war.

It's almost the same as admonishing Liu Hansan

, are instructing them not to take a large-scale offensive, because the logistics can not keep up.

The previous battles consumed a lot of materials.

Coupled with the weather, it is really not suitable for big fights.

After meeting the generals, Wu Changqing also met with an important local official, the prefect of Suzhou, and Chief Yan.

The prefect is only a fourth-rank official. If it is a prefect in a remote place like Huangshan, Wu Changqing has no time to answer.

However, Suzhou is different.

Suzhou itself has a very developed economy, and it also manages Huzhou, Kunshan, Songjiang and other places below.

Especially Songjiang, where the monthly tax and silver is almost as much as Nanjing.

Besides Nanjing, Songjiang was the most important place in his territory.

In fact, it is not reasonable for Songjiang to be under the jurisdiction of Suzhou Prefecture. It should be separated out and established as a prefecture, or even a road directly under the central government.

Because of such an important place as Songjiang, it is very inappropriate to send an official from the fourth rank to manage it. According to its importance, it is not an exaggeration to send a senior member of the third grade to manage it.

The old division of administrative regions is no longer appropriate.

However, now that the Dahua Empire has just been established, there are many places that need to be changed. It cannot be done all at once, and it needs to be done step by step.

Therefore, the upgrade of Songjiang from county to prefecture can only be put on hold for the time being.

In such an important area, how to govern is very important. Wu Changqing specially invited Yan Daqi to give instructions, lest Yan Daqi make some wrong decrees.

"Economic development is the mainstay, whether it's a black cat or a white cat, the one who can earn money is a good cat..."

Wu Changqing explained a lot, and Yan Dahu remembered it carefully.

Of course, he also knows how important the position of the prefect of Suzhou is. Many high-ranking officials want this position, and many people are staring at him, waiting for him to make mistakes.

As long as he makes a mistake, the impeachment memorial is sure to drift to the cabinet like a snowflake.

Only by getting him down will other people have a chance.
