Chapter 138 Warship
Dai Zong always felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at him behind his back, but every time he turned around, these eyes quietly disappeared into the sea of people. Dai Zong laughed at himself for being neurotic and suspicious, but today he suddenly understood that he was indeed being targeted.
Originally, Dai Zong was going to go home, but when he walked halfway down the road, he suddenly remembered that he didn't take the key, and hurriedly turned back, but he saw a person with a flustered look, looking left and right, obviously Dai Zong's sudden turn caught him off guard.
Dai Zong sneered, walked up to the man and asked, "Excuse me, how do you get to the Ear and Eye Alley?" ”
The man was even more flustered, and said with a smile: "I don't know this place either, and I don't know, you can ask elsewhere!" Dai Zong thanked him, and when he turned around, he saw the man's harrier-like gaze.
The man looked at Dai Zong, and was annoyed in his heart, how to let Dai Zong find out the clues, fortunately, he might be looking for a place. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "How can I, Zhong Qi, live up to the cultivation of Lord Tongju!" Then he hurried after him.
Dai Zong pretended not to know and walked to the prison camp, he went up to the top just enough to see the situation at the gate, and the man returned to the gate of the prison camp. No wonder these days there are more small business stalls in the prison camp and in front of his house, it turns out that they are all spies, Dai Zong has a cold sweat on his back, and it turns out that all his whereabouts are under surveillance.
"What's wrong? I haven't been involved in any of the skeleton thieves' operations, so how could Wong Man Ping suspect me? Is this Huang Wenbing's private behavior, or is it Cai Jiu's instigation? ”
Dai Zong was puzzled.
"It's broken!"
Dai Zong suddenly thought that a few days ago, he handed Cai Jiu another letter to Song Qing for commutation of sentence.
"Could it be that this matter aroused Cai Jiu's suspicions?" Thinking about it, Dai Zong couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, and said in his heart: "If the surveillance is arranged earlier, won't the brothers Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun also be monitored?" Isn't Li Jun also targeted? ”
Dai Zong didn't dare to think about it, he must send them a letter, and he couldn't alarm the secret agents. He thought about it and went down to find Li Kui and said, "Tie Niu will help me cut two catties of cooked beef, buy two jars of wine, and come back and let us have a few drinks." Li Kui happily went out with the silver.
Dai Zong went up to the high place again, and saw that no one was following Li Kui behind him, and no one was following him when he came back, and he knew in his heart that their goal was himself. For a few days, Dai Zong found that no one followed Li Kui when he went out, so he relieved Li Kui to send the letter to Zhang Shun's brothers, just in case he returned home and lured the spies away.
Meng Kang's return greatly increased Song Jiang's confidence in building a naval army. To have undisputed supremacy on the water, a well-trained navy and a reasonable warship are essential. Song Jiang's mind remembered the Spanish pirates in his previous life, and that kind of strength was a model for the whole of Europe in the sixteenth century, invincible in the world.
The Spanish pirates' warships were huge ships with wide hulls and tall towers built in the bow and stern that could accommodate hundreds of soldiers. The giant ship has a high center of gravity, slow speed, and poor flexibility, but it has a smooth navigation and strong ability to resist wind and waves. Their naval tactics were still broadside battles, in which artillery was used to break the sails and cables of enemy ships to incapacitate them, and then they moved closer to each other, and soldiers boarded the enemy ships to attack. This is the mode of thinking of land warfare, and the giant ship is actually a mobile fortress on the water, and it is just a carrier of the army. The dominant force in naval warfare was the soldiers who fought on the side, not the artillery.
At the same time, Song Jiang remembered the British speedboats. The size of the clipper is much smaller, the body is narrow and long, the side is low, the front building is completely canceled, and the rear building is reduced, so that the center of gravity is greatly reduced, and it can be equipped with large-caliber heavy guns without affecting the stability of the hull. The speed of the fast ship is high and the agility is good, but the ship has a low side, and if it is taken by the enemy, it will definitely lose. However, the naval combat tactics of the fast ship are based on maneuver and artillery fire, and the characteristics of speed and flexibility are used to keep a distance from the enemy ship, and the enemy ship is not given a chance to meet the side as much as possible. Of course, all this came from his previous life, which Song Jiang learned through films, television and novels.
After communicating with Meng Kang, Song Jiang decided to build a giant ship and a fast ship at the same time, and when the time comes, they will join forces on the water to fight, and the effect will definitely be very good. Taking advantage of the characteristics of speed and flexibility, the fast ship can pursue, harass, and quickly surround enemy ships, and can also cover the giant ship to strike at enemy ships. After the giant ship and the enemy ship are engaged, they use crossbows, grenades and other weapons to blow the enemy to pieces, and then board the enemy ship to attack. After explaining the situation of the two types of warships, Song Jiang also stressed that the sides of the warships should be wrapped with fine iron to prevent the enemy ships from penetrating the ships, and even if the ammunition and food were exhausted, it would be a great advantage to use the warships to collide.
Meng Kang's drawings of the warship were drawn in the same way, and they were ready to be manufactured after being inspected by Song Jiang, but the big ship needed a lot of skilled craftsmen, and the craftsmen brought by Qingfeng Mountain were limited after all, and some of the specialties were not right. Originally, I thought that there was no time to build a big ship, but I knew that I would come to the pillow if I was sleepy, but 80% of the people in Yuliu Village came to Liangshanbo, and they could solve the urgent need. There are a variety of talents among the fishermen, and they are assigned to different industries according to their abilities.
There is still a shortage of talents! After Song Jiang sighed, he stepped up to send letters to Kong Ming and Kong Liang brothers, recruiting capable craftsmen such as cutting, weaving, carpenters, and blacksmiths. Such a large farm, a lot of fur, knitted products, velvet products, leather clothing should appear. In addition, now Liangshanbo raises a lot of ducks, if you create a down jacket, the garment factory will become a cash cow, and a lot of silver will be sent to Liangshanbo in a steady stream.
Song Jiang was so happy that he wanted to go to his home to have a look. Seeing Song Jiang come in, Hua Ziwei and Master Li, who were chatting, stood up, and Master Li saluted and said, "Calm down, come and play outside with my sister!" ”
Song Jingxin is more than three years old, and she pouted: "Every time my father comes, you take me outside, I don't, I want my father to hug me!" ”
Song Jiang smiled and said: "It's so beautiful to be quiet, come and hug Daddy!" After speaking, he hugged Song Jingxin and kissed her on the face.
Jingxin grinned, and said while dodging: "Daddy's beard is pierced to death, don't let you kiss, don't let you kiss!" ”
She suddenly said, "Daddy, don't move!" ”
Song Jiang was very obedient and did not move, and quietly pointed to Song Jiang's hair and said, "Daddy has a white hair on his head, I will pull it out for you!" ”
Song Jiang hurriedly turned his head sideways and said, "Don't pull it out quietly, Daddy will hurt." ”
Jing Xin said innocently: "Jing Jing will pull it very lightly, and it won't hurt Daddy." ”
Song Jiang obediently asked Jingxin to pull out his hair, and praised: "Jingjing is really sensible, and Daddy doesn't hurt at all." ”
Jingxin chuckled: "Daddy, you always don't go home, Senior Sister is in a hurry, she can't see you." ”
Master Li blushed suddenly, and Song Jiang hurriedly put down and asked quietly, "Is there something wrong with Master Li looking for me?" ”
Master Li blushed and said, "What can I do, I'm here to see my sister-in-law and my children." ”
Song Jingxin stuck out her tongue and said, "Senior Sister lied, every time you came, you said that you were looking for Brother Song." ”
Master Li's face was flushed to the base of her neck, she grabbed Jing Xin and said, "Let you talk nonsense, go, my sister will buy you candy to eat!" After saying that, he pulled Jingxin and escaped from the house, and almost tripped over the threshold.
Song Jiang looked at the panicked Master Li, and couldn't help but think of the flower crape myrtle that broke the tea bowl at the beginning, and watched Master Li go away in a daze. Hua Ziwei smiled: "There is no one left, what else to see!" ”
Song Jiang also smiled: "No wonder you are so beautiful, it turns out that jealousy has beauty effects!" ”
Hua Ziwei said: "Who is jealous, I mean really, if you like it, you can take the master as a concubine!" Always let a cat worry about the fish, it is better to simply serve the fish to the cat, save me from worrying all day long! ”
Song Jiang said: "The teacher is still a child, and it is not yet time to talk about marriage, so you don't have to worry about salty radishes." ”
After hearing this, Hua Ziwei said: "Look, the fox's tail is exposed!" Don't I understand it this way: If the teacher grows up, you will take her as a concubine! ”
Song Jiang understood that you could never quarrel with a woman, and she would lose inside and out, so he said, "Forget it!" There's a tigress at home that I can't bear to eat, and I'm afraid I'll be eaten by you if there's another one. ”
"Don't prevaricate me, I'm telling the truth."
Hua Ziwei looked directly at Song Jiang and said: "You see how similar the teacher looks at you, how similar it is to me back then, women are miserable." You married her into the door, and our two sisters are commensurate, and you will not disappoint your teacher's heart. ”
Song Jiang couldn't cry or laugh, he ransomed Master Li from Bianjing not to take it for himself, but to ...... He didn't know how to talk to Hua Ziwei, walked over and grabbed Hua Ziwei's hand and said, "What I said is true, I won't marry a teacher." ”
Hua Ziwei broke free of Song Jiang's hand and said: "I don't believe it, you spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to redeem her, just to let her sing and dance." ”
Song Jiang grabbed Hua Ziwei's hand again and said softly: "The facts will make you believe that I only love Ziwei as a woman in this life and this life." After speaking, he hugged Hua Ziwei in his arms and whispered: "Ziwei, we are affectionate!" ”
"You hate it!"
Hua Ziwei pushed Song Jiang away, stomped her feet shyly and said, "In broad daylight, you ...... What a shame! After saying that, he walked over and sat on the bed, his chest rising and falling, as if he was very angry. Suddenly, she glared at Song Jiang and said, "What are you doing stupidly, don't go and close the door yet!" ”
After closing the door, Song Jiang was still thinking about Master Li's problem, and when the time came, it would definitely be another emotional dispute to let her go undercover in Bianliang.
