Chapter 195: Back to the Island

Zhang Shijie held the letter in his hand, his face was flushed and trembling, and after reading it twice to confirm that it was correct, he slapped it on the table, and paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back like a trapped beast.

"Wang Po, you traitor, deceitful, disloyal and unjust, forget your humility and have no shame!"

Originally, Zhang Shijie wanted to scold the enemy for collaborating with the enemy, but he had just repelled the Yuan soldiers, and this sin could not be pressed on his head.

Lu Xiufu next to him saw Zhang Shijie so angry for the first time, so he leaned over to the desk and took a closer look, his face was also gloomy, Wang Po is crazy?

The content of this letter was really unexpected, Wang Po asked to lead his subordinates to stay in Yashan forever in the name of guarding the tomb of tens of thousands of soldiers who died in battle, and since then he has been guarding Yashan to defend against foreign enemies, and he cannot protect the young emperor to fight all over the world.

The eight cannons on the top of the mountain were specially mentioned, and Zhang Hongfan was defeated and made great contributions, and the emperor was specially invited to issue a decree to reward the cannons, named the general of Zhenguo, and enjoy the name of the imperial court and the worship of the world. And for the convenience of people's admiration, the temple of the general of Zhenguo will be built in two places, and elite armor soldiers will be stationed all year round, and the artillery must be protected from being damaged and moved by anyone while being vigilant against foreign enemies.

The tone at the beginning was quite respectful, but later the meaning has been made very clear, I just want to do this, and if you don't agree with it, it's your business, which can also be seen as a kind of rebellion in the strict sense.

"Lord Zhang, I will press this matter first, and take me to Yashan in person to meet with Wang Po to talk about what happened."

Zhang Shijie only had the ability to express anger at this time, but did not have the determination to ask for a surrender and send troops to conscript. The Song army, which has already suffered heavy losses, has gone to eighty percent out of ten, not to mention going to conquer Wang Po, even if other generals and officials know, it will be a deeper harm to the imperial court.

"Okay, then it's hard Lu-sama!"

……

Zhao Tianyou slept beautifully on the boat, his energy was seriously overdrawn in the past few days, especially the invisible consumption in meditation, Rao is such a strong body, he felt tired. This time, Yashan carried out a lot of harvest, not only rewrote the history of the Song Dynasty, got the guidance of his own life, but also found an excellent talent Sangou, this hundred complete warships is the smallest achievement.

When the 100 warships sailed in order and sailed to the vicinity of Hong Kong Island, four gunboats of the South China Sea Fleet came up to meet them, lined up and aimed their sides at the flotilla, blocking the way without flinching.

"Hi Hong Kong Island brothers, it's me, Sangou! General Zhao was on the boat, quickly getting out of the way. ”

The soldiers on the opposite boat didn't recognize him at all, and if he hadn't followed him to talk about General Zhao, I was afraid that he would have been scolded again, and maybe he would have to shoot at him.

The number one in charge of the South China Sea Fleet was Du Hu, but what he didn't expect was that he also appeared at the bow of the ship, and after seeing Liu Jinli, he immediately got out of the way and led the 100 warships to Hong Kong Island.

Du Hu boarded the ship and saw Zhao Tianyou, and when he came up, he grabbed his hand and said: "General, you haven't had any news in the past few days, but you have made people anxious, our warships are indeed too few, otherwise we would have killed the place of battle a long time ago." ”

"It's a trivial matter, before leaving, I told them, just guard carefully, don't let the Yuan soldiers sneak attack. As for me, even if I can't beat me, I can run, and no one can leave me behind. ”

Du Hu deliberately said with a straight face: "You have it, anything can happen in the chaotic army, we must not do this next time." You have to think about the people on our island, what are you going to do, we have so many sons and daughters, we can't be ashamed to wipe our necks.

Just yesterday, a group of warships of the Yuan soldiers passed through the waters south of Hong Kong Island, and there were 50 or 60 large ships fighting with our four ships. But as soon as our cannons rang out, they fled, leaving only the two ships that had been destroyed, and the others were gone. ”

Zhao Tianyou asked, "Whose subordinates are on that boat?" ”

"We caught a few alive, they are Zhang Hongfan's men, Zhang Hongfan was seriously injured by shelling in Yashan, and screamed and vomited blood to death that night, so they fled the battlefield."

"Zhang Hongfan is dead? Really dead? ”

"It's true, they have no main general, so they can only follow Zhu Qing to Quanzhou, but there is not enough food supplies on the way, so they want to rob us nearby. Unexpectedly, when they ran into our gunboats, they may have been scared in Yashan, and after a round of artillery bombardment, they were frightened and fled. ”

Zhang Hongfan is really dead! Zhao Tianyou had a strange feeling in his heart, did he let this kid die too easily? Although he is not a Song person, after all, he is still of Han blood, and after the destruction of the Song Dynasty with his own hands, he also engraved Zhang Hongfan to destroy the Song Dynasty here, and he is a second-class person in the eyes of the Yuan people wholeheartedly, and it is really too cheap for him to die like this.

Zhao Tianyou changed his words and said: "Haha, Lao Du, look at these ships, they are all ours, and they will all be in your responsibility in the future, won't it be too much?" ”

"Okay, my General Zhao, you're just getting me two hundred, I'm not too much, I need a large number of sailors and soldiers now. And you hurry up and urge Lao Feng Tou to them, the recent cannon production is not low, and these hundred ships will start to be equipped soon, don't rush to kill me! ”

"Okay, how can you eat a fat man in one bite, come a little bit, Old Man Feng, they are also in trouble, the problem can't be solved, they are more anxious than you!"

The island has indeed encountered a problem, the design of the Franco's sub-cannon has long been completed, the supporting sub-cannon standards, the manufacture of new flowering shells, and so on, have all been completed, and they are waiting for the samples to pass the test and test, and they will be able to produce and equip the troops in large quantities.

The problem lies in the material of the gun body, and the bore of the sub cannon and the mother cannon should be tightly fitted, and there must be no large gaps, so that the accuracy and range can be guaranteed when firing. However, the current sub-cannon will crack after firing twice, or the muzzle connection of the mother cannon will rise.

Recently, the island has been adjusting the formula, hoping to refine the steel with strength and toughness, just like the formula of the armor piercing is a by-product, hard and sharp, but easy to shatter by great force.

Zhao Tianyou has no practical experience in how to make good steel, but he does not blame or exert pressure, but just tries his best to put forward some ideas and opinions.

After Zhao Tianyou returned to the island, he rested for a few days, and after receiving the ship, he had to send a boat to send Wang Po's men back to Yashan, according to Zhao Tianyou's temperament, how could they return empty-handed. Cannons and gunpowder can't be easily given to others, and the eight cannons were left in Yashan, and the symbolic meaning was far greater than the actual battle, but then Zhao Tianyou also left eighty shells in case of emergency.

Wang Po was loaded with some food supplies, as well as farm tools cast on Hong Kong Island, and he was going to garrison troops in Yashan to open up wasteland.
