Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

"Your Majesty said there's a solution..."

"There must be a way to solve this!"

Ma Sanbao looked at Zhu Yunhuan with a pair of bright eyes, which seemed to contain the sea of ​​stars. The rough picture that Zhu Yunhuan had just described emerged in his mind, and his heart was filled with excitement.

If it is really as your majesty said.

As I lead my fleet out to sea, decades later, perhaps the saying will really come true: "Everywhere the sun and the moon shine, is Han territory; wherever the rivers flow, all people are Han subjects"!

This sentence comes from the ancestors of the Han people in China and has been passed down since the Han Dynasty.

But in reality.

The one who truly wants to turn this sentence into reality... is His Majesty today!

And he, Ma Sanbao, will serve as His Majesty's sharpest spear and sword, and will personally witness, experience, and accomplish this matter!

"I am stupid and dull, please give me some advice, Your Majesty." Ma Sanbao's voice trembled slightly. Although he was a eunuch, he never lacked ambition, otherwise he would not have become the Zheng He who made seven voyages to the West in history.

Especially in recent years.

Zhu Yunhuan not only took him in and out of the main hall, but also intentionally or unintentionally exposed him to various books and knowledge related to geography, navigation, and shipbuilding. He also subtly gave Ma Sanbao a vision, perspective, pattern, and knowledge that no one else could match.

Thinking of these things and these pictures at this moment.

Naturally, waves of turmoil surged in his heart and he couldn't calm down.

Zhu Yunhuan pondered for a moment and said, "I do have a solution, but as you said, there are many technical difficulties to overcome, so I can't rush it. I just saw your comments on military strength and this idea came to my mind."

"What you need to do now is to incorporate the concept I just mentioned into your shipbuilding and improvements to its hull shape, equipment, and parts."

"According to my estimation and prediction..."

Having said that, Zhu Yunhuan paused for a moment to think about it, and then seriously and solemnly gave a rough estimate: "Maybe the earliest you'll have the chance to equip it before your first voyage. If not, by the time you go to sea for the second time, there's a high probability that you'll have the opportunity to put this idea into practice."

Zhu Yunhuan was not a blindly confident person. He would not think that his vision and knowledge were beyond that of the times and that he must be omniscient and omnipotent.

After all, there are still a lot of things involved.

First, there was the adjustment of the single-base gunpowder composition and the large-scale refining of the gunpowder raw materials. Secondly, the exploration of steelmaking technology also took some time. Furthermore, there was also the casting process for the gun barrel, etc.

After the cannon is made, it also takes time to fit it into the ship and adjust it.

Whether there will be some details problems in this process, and whether it will consume more time than he expected, can only be known after step-by-step practice and debugging.

Hearing what Zhu Yunhuan said.

Ma Sanbao's passionate thoughts were also pulled back.

Even though he felt a little disappointed for a moment because he didn't get the answer he wanted immediately, he looked at Zhu Yunhuan without a trace of doubt. Instead, he responded firmly and solemnly, "Your Majesty's intention, I have taken note of it!"

He was the closest person to Zhu Yunhuan, and the person closest to all the "absurd" truths about the new emperor. Even if we put aside the master-servant relationship between him and Zhu Yunhuan for several years, he had already understood one thing: Believe in His Majesty, and you will gain eternal life!

Besides, if “going overseas and crushing other countries” was really that easy, why would they be asked to do it now?

The more conservative and solemn this kind of thing is.

Cai Yue explained that His Majesty already had a series of mature plans and strategies in mind.

These principles.

Ma Sanbao understood it in his heart.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath to calm himself down for a while, then picked up the pen and wrote these two words on the page in his hand: "Naval gun".
