The Cai family's boat is a kind of ship that is not much different from the inland river boats, that is, those building boats, fortunately, at least they know that the sea surface cannot be too high, and only one floor of the "building" is built, and the hull is as large as possible. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Not only the Cai family, but also the ships of the various families in Dongmu County are almost the same style, the difference is in the size of the hull.

Liu Yan actually didn't like to see the building boats, especially after knowing that the bottom of those building boats was flat, if it weren't for the lack of boats crossing the sea, he really didn't want to use these unreliable ships.

Eighteen building ships, most of them were four masts, and some were two masts, although Cai You repeatedly guaranteed the reliability of navigation on the sea, Liu Yan did not dare to let them be used to load manpower, except for the necessary sailors, only to load baggage.

On the Han side, twenty-two four-masted ships, that is, Kirk galleons, loaded with a large number of men and major materials, served as the leader of the fleet, and sailed at the forefront.

Approaching April, the Bohai Sea seemed relatively calm, and it seemed that the huge fleet was sailing around the Miaodao Islands, and the Han people on the island were constantly cheering and waving their hands, and the people on the ships were also constantly waving their hands.

Sea voyages are nothing new to most of the people in the Han Dynasty, but they are basically short voyages, and except for a very small number of people, most of them do not have the experience of taking a boat for almost half a day.

"It's already being changed, and the bottom of the newly built ship will no longer be flat." Cai You was not embarrassed when he spoke: "The style is also changing, and I won't be afraid of the wind anymore." ”

Speaking of which, what have those family members in Dongmu County been doing for so many years? I didn't even figure out what the bottom of the river and the sea should be, I just figured out what the bottom of the ship should have the weight of ballast. And it seems that they can't be blamed, some things seem very simple to say, but when you don't understand, you don't understand, any technological leap not only needs to be accumulated, but also needs that sometimes flash of inspiration.

The reason why Cai You's family chose to belong to Liu Yan is not without reason, in addition to Liu Yan's importance, the shipbuilding blueprint of Kirk sailing ships is open to them.

People who go to sea a lot will understand what the right ship can do. They understand even more that with those big ships, it is impossible for the Han Department to be exterminated, and this kind of thing that has no profit or loss, it is really stupid not to grasp it firmly.

It's a very real situation, after Zhao, which forces understand sea ships now? As soon as the Han Department withdrew to the islands in the sea, it was basically safe, and then it was time for the Han Department to continue to invade and make the local coastal erosion.

The fleet is sailing at a speed of about two or three knots, because the relationship between the land can always be seen, and there is no possibility of getting lost.

They started preparing at midnight (5:00~6:59) and set off at the beginning of the morning (7:00~7:15), and after about two hours of sailing, they arrived at the easternmost point of the island chain of the Miaodao Islands, which is also known as Beichenghuangdao in modern times.

From the sea area of Beichenghuang Island, you can see the distant land, which is called Lushun in modern times, Ma SJ in the Western Jin Dynasty, and Zhuzhu or Yujin in the Qianghan period before that. In the eighth year of Xianhe of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (333), Wang Qi and Xu Meng led ships to envoy Murong Xianbei, that is, "the ship dismounted and landed here."

The families of Dongmu County come here every year to trade with some nomadic tribes, and they know where Ma SJ is, but according to them, the port is abandoned, and there are only a few hunters in the whole peninsula, and there are no other people.

Cai You didn't let go of everything that could be observed along the way, he walked around almost the entire ship, and made detailed inquiries about what the manpower of each position needed.

"Your Majesty, these ships ...... Doesn't look like a combat use? Although Cai You is using a question, it is obvious that he has his insight: "The load is strong enough, but the agility and speed are not like that of a combat ship." ”

The Chinese shipbuilders, their definition of a warship is relatively simple, in addition to having enough deterrence, it must have a manpower oar to drive, and it cannot be completely dependent on the sails.

The Kirk was not a ship that relied entirely on sails, but the limited shipbuilding capacity of the Hanbu apparently made it impossible to build overly complex ships, when in fact it was designed as a transport ship rather than a warship.

Liu Yan is willing to share the blueprint with those families, doesn't he just hope to develop and research together?

It was about the time of the afternoon, but the exact time was not elaborate, and the fleet arrived at the old port of Masj, with one ship at the head and the rest of the ships entering the harbor in a straight line.

The fleet needs to cross a narrow "ditch", according to Cai You in front of the leader, there is no reef here, and after entering from that place, there is a harbor similar to an inner lake.

If you look down from the sky, it really looks like there is an "inner lake", and the outer part is "wrapped" by an irregular triangle, leaving only a gap to enter.

Entering through the "gap", at first glance, Masj does not look like a port at all, but there is no beach.

In fact, there is no beach, the beach can still be seen in the harbor, and the continental shelf is a tendency to slope down from the shore, so that the water will not be deep, and the ship can not dock, so it can only stop far away and land with a boat.

Do you know what Liu Yan is doing at this moment? He was looking at the map in his head, looking at the terrain and seeing if there was anyone on this side. When he looked at it, he didn't see any signs of people, and he accepted this piece in his heart...... At least the fact that there are no people within a radius of five hundred meters.

After most of the day's sea voyage, the original ban was lifted when they arrived at the destination, and those who had been stuffy in the cabin for a long time were finally able to go on deck.

The people on deck, they gulped in the fishy air, stared wide-eyed at a blue sky and white clouds and a scene full of greenery, one began to cheer, and then everyone followed, and immediately cheered.

"Let's start disembarking!"

With Liu Yan's order, the ships loaded with tribal weapons were the first to dock, and one after another armor soldiers stepped on the planks from the skilled boatmen from Dongmu County to land.

It's one thing for the fleet to come over, because it's another thing to land without a port, in short, it won't take a short time.

In the beginning, the necessary troops were allowed to land first, but the supplies had to wait for the construction of a simple port, so that it was almost impossible to get it without tossing and turning for four or five days.

Most people have no experience in boating, and even if the waves are not strong during the voyage, the boat is stable, but many people still feel "bumpy" when they go down from the boat to land.

Liu Yan saw everything in his eyes, except for the fact that when the tribe was armed, there was no impact, only the group of people who were specially gathered and had sufficient sailing experience. Most of the rest are a mess on land, and there are even more people who kneel down and vomit wildly.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I have to think about it." What Ji Chang said was to concentrate the soldiers who did not get seasick: "Although the good and the bad are not good, but ...... At least you can fight when you go ashore. ”

The Han Department is going to invade Goguryeo, even if the rear of Goguryeo is empty, there should always be guards, right? If the Han soldiers who landed on the shore all became soft-footed shrimps, and they could not exert one or two percent of their usual combat effectiveness, they would become slaughtered slaughterhouses.

Liu Yan looked at Ji Chang with some concern, his right-hand man's face was very pale, his forehead was also covered with sweat, and he was obviously seasick.

The lessons of the previous car are not far away, Cao Cao led the so-called million army in Chibi several battles to ashes, the history books are recorded Zhou Yu's excellent ability in water warfare, but it is more illustrative of what will happen to the landlubber in the water war. That's still in the Yangtze River, not the sea.

"It's okay......" Liu Yan had his own overall consideration: "We still have about a year to train the navy, and more fearless tribal armed forces will be the first batch of landing forces." ”

Fearless tribal armament? Ji Chang couldn't help but look at the army that was quietly staying on the side of the woods, he was no less confused now than before, he had long wondered where his allegiance had pulled out such an army, he had never seen and spoken, it seemed that he was really a little too fearless!

Of course, although Ji Chang was extremely confused and puzzled in his heart, he never doubted the combat effectiveness of the tribal armed forces and the execution of orders.
