Chapter 272: The first phase of the construction plan of the Navy
"this……"
Knowing that the treasury reserves that had always been in my impression were only 500,000 gold left at this time, Yingji shook his body and suddenly felt a darkness in front of him.
You should know that when the statistics and taxes were included at the beginning of this year, Ying Ji clearly remembered that Shang Jun and Wei Ran were full of confidence and reported to himself the scene of the total income of the empire's treasury this year that this year's empire's treasury reached five or six million gold.
But unexpectedly, a series of imperial construction plans were completed and they were really spending money. Before they knew it, they had consumed eight or nine out of ten of the treasury stored.
You know, it was golden gold, and more than five million gold disappeared in an instant. How could Yingji, who was originally a businessman, not feel heartbroken?
But Yingji also understood that if he was not in charge, he did not know that the firewood, rice, oil and salt were expensive. Now that the construction of various plans of the empire is progressing steadily, no one can stop, so he can only spend money.
There is not enough money here, and there is not enough money, and there is not enough money, and there is not enough money.
In short, it’s just a saying, spend money and throw it to death!
Even though I understand the truth, Yingji still feels heartbroken.
Originally, Yingji thought it would be fine if he was a poor man in front of the system, but he didn't expect that he was still a poor man in reality. It was really helpless.
Don’t think that the imperial treasury still contains the legacy of the Qin Dynasty’s generations.
Yingji can say responsibly that it is impossible.
You should know that during the reign of King Wu, although the military strength had developed, the people's livelihood was in disgrace, and the national treasury was empty, so it was simply too late to make ends meet.
The reason for all this is to be pursued by Ying Ji's cheap father, King Huiwen of Qin Ying Si.
During the reign of King Huiwen of Qin, he attacked Ba and Shu, went to war with Chu, and went to war with the Three Jins. Wars came one after another, one after another.
After years of war, Ying Si had already lost all the family fortunes that had been passed down during the reign of Duke Xiao. This is the culprit that the empire's treasury has no retention.
That is why the current situation of the empire's treasury is in a difficult financial situation and financial resources are empty.
...
"As the Navy Minister said, naval construction is urgent, no one can do poor navy. Even if it is done for ten thousand years, it will be necessary to create the navy even if it is done for all the power of the empire."
In the court, Ying Ji said solemnly, with an unquestionable tone.
Yingji comes from modern society and clearly knows that most of the humiliation in China is caused by the lack of a powerful navy to protect it.
The strong Qin has passed away, the Han and Tang dynasties are like dreams, the elegy of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, and the setting sun of the empire!
Therefore, Yingji's heart was naturally filled with the feeling of giant ships and cannons galloping across the ocean.
I also understand that the importance of the navy to a sea-side country is absolutely top priority.
"Even the small land of Athens city-state, there is a powerful navy. How can the empire fall behind?"
Bismarck didn't know that what he said just now, coupled with the empire's financial difficulties, actually made Ying Ji feel like he was fighting for the strengths and weaknesses between civilizations.
"But your Majesty, the treasury of the empire..."
"Needless to say!"
At this time, Wei Ran wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ying Ji directly raised his hand.
"The two prime ministers, who have passed my decree, allocated 500,000 gold from the treasury, handed over to the Navy Minister Bismarck, and devoted to the naval construction."
Looking at His Majesty's determination and unquestionable meaning, the civil and military officials in the court were silent and stopped talking.
Instead, Yingji looked at Bismarck and said.
"Bismar, now, he should be called the Minister of the Navy."
"Naval Secretary, now the imperial financial resources cannot support the comprehensive construction of the Imperial Navy, so he can only settle for the second best!"
"Sir, tell me what plans do you have and how much money do you need?"
"As long as you can forge a powerful navy for the empire, I will satisfy you no matter what your request is."
Hearing Yingji's words, Bismarck felt a little moved.
You should know that in the world and space where you were originally in, both William I and William II could be called wise monarchs.
But he has never trusted himself as much as His Majesty now, let alone said that he would support himself in building a navy with all his powers.
Suddenly, an unprecedented feeling surged in Bismarck's heart.
It's hard to explain, it's hard to explain.
However, if the imperial minister from China knew Bismarck's thoughts at this time, he would definitely be sure that Bismarck would have given birth to the idea of dying for his confidant.
"Report to your Majesty, if the imperial financial support is insufficient, then naval construction can only be second best."
"I have also sorted out the first phase of the Navy construction plan according to the financial situation of the empire."
"The content of the first phase of the Navy construction: the Empire has formed at least two fleets, and the combat range is at least radiated to the edge of the Western Pacific near Guam."
"The combat units of each fleet are: at least twenty large ships, including fifteen large combat ships, three large material supply ships, and two large military transport ships."
"Have at least fifty medium-sized ships, including thirty-five combat ships, five medium-sized transport supply ships, and ten medium-sized transport ships."
"Have at least one hundred small ships, including sixty small warships, twenty small material transport ships, and twenty small military transport ships."
"Each fleet has a size of 170 ships, with a total of two fleets, with a total of at least 340 ships!"
"The Imperial Navy with such strength is enough to strengthen the Imperial Marine Power and initially expand the Imperial sphere of influence to the Western Pacific region."
"In view of combat needs and practical reasons, I have specifically proposed that the displacement of small ships in the Imperial Navy cannot be less than 3,000 tons, the displacement of medium ships is at least about 6,000 to 7,000 tons, and the displacement of large ships must exceed 10,000 tons, and the data should be floating between 10,000 tons and 11,000 tons."
"The personnel need is about 50,000 crew members and Marine Corps soldiers with a size of about 25,000, and all equipped with weapons and equipment."
"In addition, it is also necessary to build at least two deep-water ports with 200,000 civilians to stay!"
"Of course, the empire needs at least two large shipyards that can build water displacements below 15,000 tons. The funds are calculated separately, and it is expected that it will also require about 300,000 to 400,000 gold."
"And according to my speculation, the first phase of naval construction requires at least 2.4 million yuan from the beginning to the completion of the first phase, and the more the better."
Chapter completed!
