Chapter 350: A New Warship

The news that Planton became the governor of the Jiangdong Navy did not continue to ferment, after all, the world was too chaotic, since the princes discussed Dong Zhuo, there was no day of peace in the world, and the princes were either busy suppressing thieves to expand their territory and troops, or they were fighting with each other, revenge for revenge, revenge for resentment.

I'm afraid that the only one in the world who has always cared about this matter is Liu Biao. He first got the news from Cai Mao that Prandon served as the governor of Jiangdong's navy, and then received information from Huang Zu that the Jiangxia navy under him was almost wiped out in Chaisang, Huang Zu's letter was to ask for guilt, and the other was to hope for reinforcements, after all, Jiangxia with a navy is much different from Jiangxia without a navy.

After reading the letter, Liu Biao's first reaction was of course extremely angry, and he scolded Huang Zu and Deng Long for a while, but in the end he gave up angrily, he knew the importance of Huang Zu to Jingzhou, even if he Liu Biao was angry in his heart, it would never be possible to do something to Huang Zu.

What else can Liu Biao do? can only reply to comfort Huang Zu, let him stabilize the army's heart as soon as possible, and let Cai Mao support the past with 10,000 sailors, Jiangxia is the barrier of Jingzhou, Liu Biao must not afford to lose!

After just solving this matter, Liu Biao wanted to be idle to accompany his wife Mrs. Cai, but the arrival of a messenger made him have to cancel the decision to go back to the backyard, and the news brought to him by the messenger made him unable to refuse, for the sake of Jingzhou, for his Liu family to enjoy the glory of Jingzhou, Liu Biao had already secretly made up his mind in his heart......

Chaisang City.

Although Sun Yang has been waiting for Plandon, it seems that he doesn't need to interfere in the formation of the navy, but Sun Yang did not leave Chaisang immediately, but chose to stay, first, there is less than three months to go to the end of the year, all parts of Jiangdong have been on the right track, Sun Yang has nothing to do, and secondly, he also wants to take this opportunity to take a good look at the construction process of the navy, after all, with him here, the speed and quality will definitely be three points better.

Time passed in a hurry, and ten days after announcing Plandon's appointment as the governor of the Jiangdong naval army, the first batch of people on the island, numbering about 10,000 people, were also brought back to Chaisang City by Plandon, after which, he and Sun Yang began to integrate Chaisang's original naval army and the naval army he brought.

"Pududu, now we currently have more than 10,000 sailors in our hands, according to your wishes, we only need more than 200 warships, right?" Sun Yang asked Plandon, more than 200 warships is a very simple matter for them, but Sun Yang's ambition is far more than that, his goal is to have at least 50,000 sailors before he attacks Jingzhou!

"Childe, as it stands, but most of the warships in our hands are a little old, the last general means that if possible, take this opportunity to build a new type of warship, those drawings have been seen by the general, if our soldiers can use those warships, the strength will be at least three times stronger!" Plandon is not lying, those warships can indeed do this!

"Oh? Can there really be such a high increase in combat power? Hearing Plandon say this, Sun Yang was also interested, if these new warships could have such great power, he would build them even if he smashed the pot and sold iron!

"Well, Childe is right, if these warships can be built, they will definitely be several times better than the current warships of the Jingzhou Navy!"

Although Sun Yang didn't know this, he still picked up the drawings and looked at them himself, this new warship is divided into three types: one is a fighting ship, which is a defensive warship, powered by oars, which can lead troops and can be used for command, and is the command flagship of the fleet; As the name suggests, this ship is extremely large, and when attacking, it can ram the enemy ship or directly board the enemy ship for hand-to-hand combat!

What shocked Sun Yang the most was that this largest building ship, according to what was said on this drawing, could bring three thousand soldiers at one time! Isn't this the aircraft carrier of the three countries? Sun Yang had secretly decided in his heart that he must have such a big ship!

The last one is the warship, which is used for assault warships, with a slender body and a hull covered with raw cowhide, which not only has strong offensive ability, but also has good defense.

After reading these three drawings, Sun Yang was conquered by these three kinds of battleships that could be attacked and defended, and he understood that with these three kinds of ships, plus excellent quality generals and soldiers, he would be able to dominate the inland river just around the corner!

"Pududu, okay, this son agreed, let's build, we must build!" Sun Yang replied to Plandon proudly, and listening to this tone, Sun Yang not only wants to build, it will definitely be built on a large scale!

Hearing Sun Yang agree, Plandon was also extremely excited, and the two studied for a while, although Jiangdong now has money, but the cost of these three kinds of warships is really a bit amazing, and they can only make careful calculations, and finally come to the conclusion that the fighting ships will build fifty ships first, after all, they are still mainly defensive against the Shangjing Naval Army; The warships were attack ships, and the number of them was naturally not less, and seventy ships were built.

As for the most popular and expensive building ship, Sun Yang and Plandon both had a disagreement, Sun Yang meant to build at least three building ships that could carry 3,000 people, but Plandon was resolutely opposed, not because the building ship was not powerful and expensive, but for the sake of actual combat, Plandon temporarily proposed not to build such a large building ship.

Plandon means that although Poyang Lake is large, the possibility of a head-on conflict between them and the Jingzhou army is very small, and there are many tributaries, obviously such a big guy can't enter, not to mention that it can't play a role, if you don't know if this bulky building boat will become a live target for the enemy, you can play how you want!

Although Plandon didn't recommend building such a big guy, there was still a need for the building ship, and in the end they also reached an agreement, the building ship could be built, but only five ships could be built and could only carry a thousand people, which would not affect the lack of troops, but also save costs.

After reaching an agreement with Plandon, Sun Yang also hurriedly found the person who provided the three drawings, he originally thought that this was designed by a certain craftsman in Jiangdong, but found that the provider of these three drawings was actually provided by Sun Yang's Xu family, who had always been wary!

This Xu family is the Xu family who built new weapons and armor for Sun Yang before, and a lot of wealth in Jiangdong has flowed into this Xu family over the years.

Speaking of this Xu family, Sun Yang has always been exploring the truth of this Xu family, but the Xu family is too low-key and cautious, and the secret guards have not grasped any actual situation for many years, and because they have always been honest, even if Sun Yang investigated, he was not too ostentatious, so he let them go.

But this time for such a confidential matter as designing a warship, Sun Yang's plan is to stabilize the Xu family first this time and let them command the shipbuilding, but the secret investigation seems to be intensifying, and this hidden threat, he should free up his hands to solve it...... 10
