"Didn't Wen Nan explain it to him? The fleet commanded by the ship transfer envoy is a private army, and no other generals except the Privy Council have the right to command! Sure enough, as soon as Hong Tao heard that Zhao Fan was going to take over his battleship, his little eyes immediately stood up, and he no longer said anything about whether he was stingy or not, this was his backlash.

"I want to say it, but Wen Nan can't see this envoy, and everyone on the ship can't enter the city at all......" Kong Pei said that the more angry he became, he had already brought his body movements and facial expressions, like Hong Tao, pursed his lips vigorously, and spread his hands out. If you want to identify with a person and get along with each other day and night, it is easy to be affected by everything about this person, including all kinds of small details, and you can't feel it.

"Alas...... Come early and come late, come sooner or later. Originally, I thought that after meeting with their emperor, this issue would drag on, but I didn't expect that their group of people was hopeless, terminally ill, and the emperor couldn't control them. Lao Kong, this is also a question that I have said countless times and am very worried about! A lot of people still don't believe it, but now you do, right? Our enemy is not only Mongolia, but also the Great Song Dynasty that we have helped! The light in Hong Tao's eyes disappeared in an instant when Kong Pei said something, and the sense of accomplishment brought by killing no enemy soldiers was as strong as the blow brought by this kind of thing.

Before the cooperation officially began, the friendly forces began to have conflicts, and the days after the cooperation deepened can be imagined, and it is fortunate that they can not directly turn against each other on the battlefield. Hong Tao knows very well what the style of the officers and crew of Jinhewan is, and they will never allow anyone outside the management of Jinhewan to step on their heads, this style is created by themselves. Even if you want to do it yourself. I'm afraid it's not so easy either. Once you get used to this thing, you get it. It's several times harder to erase it and start over again than it is the first time.

"What the gentleman said is very true! Pei has always thought that Mr. can see farther than others, and this time it is the same. However, Pei did not have any friction with the defenders of Xiangyang, and Wen Nan handed over the boat transfer envoy Wen Mu from the imperial court to the lieutenant general of the control envoy, and asked him to transfer it to the control envoy, and then we sailed the fleet away from the dock and stopped next to the sandbar on the west side. Even if the ruler allowed the crew to enter the city, the people in our fleet would not disembark. This is the rule set by the gentleman. However, this gave the Mongol army an opportunity, and there was a large sandbar in the heart of the river to the west of the pier, and the Mongol soldiers swam into the water that night, and as a result, the bells in the fishing nets were touched, and all the crew were shot in the water with crossbows and shotguns, and the ships were intact. This is also the credit of the gentleman, although you are not on the ship, but you have set the rules as if you are on the ship all the time, and will not give the enemy half a chance. "That's all it takes. As soon as he talked about fighting, Kong Pei's face turned sunny. He resembles Hong Tao in some ways. It's a relatively pure technical thinking, and he understands a lot of things in his heart, so he doesn't want to do them, such as being a politician.

"Lao Kong, you have learned badly, don't be influenced by Luo Youde and those maritime merchants. They're businessmen, you're not! Even if you praise me as a flower, you won't make half a penny. "If a person who usually likes to talk and laugh praises others, it is not very convincing, but let Kong Pei praise him sentence by sentence with such a stuffy temperament, even if Hong Tao is thick-skinned, he is a little unbearable.

The use of fishing nets to prevent enemy water ghosts from sneaking up was not Hong Tao's invention, he just borrowed from the common practice of warships docking during World War I and World War II, that is, using poles to lay a circle of fishing nets around the battleship. It's just that people's fishing nets are used to defend against torpedoes, and his fishing nets are used to defend against sneak attacks by divers, which is much the same. These nets are made from ordinary fishing nets, and are covered with palm-sized hooks, with a lead sinker at the bottom that can stretch to a depth of about ten meters, and copper bells hanging from the top edge. As soon as the nets are touched, these bells will sound and are used to alert the crew on deck at night, whether it is a false alarm or not, to carry out a series of operating regulations.

Shi Tianze's lieutenant was very lucky, when the five big ships moved to dock near the sandbar, it was not completely dark, and he was very happy to see this situation. Because there is a sandbar in the middle, the difficulty of swimming is much reduced, and you can also use the sandbar to take a break halfway. But he didn't expect and couldn't have imagined that Hong Tao would drag the technology hundreds of years later from time and space to use it. He and dozens of his subordinates died unjustly, and they probably won't be blind to hell. A group of people were actually entangled in fishing nets, and as long as the sharp hook hung on one person, the sneak attack immediately lost its meaning. When the big ships rang with the rapid bells and the dazzling fire, he knew it was over! The credit is gone, and whether there is a small life depends on the will of God.

In fact, it is not to look at the will of God, but to see the will of people, and it depends on whether the sailors on the big ship will panic. If they were as prone to bombing as the Song army, they might have been able to escape. Unfortunately, most of the sailors on these five large ships were extremely calm, they just ran, neither shouting nor helpless, and very skillfully erected a brass mirror, and then put the burning brazier in front of the bronze mirror...... In an instant, the water on one side of the five large ships was illuminated as daylight.

Iron crossbow arrows as long as chopsticks followed, and as soon as someone showed their heads on the water, they immediately attracted several crossbow arrows. The more powerful ones are still to come, and some water ghosts still want to dive out for a distance and then raise their heads to breathe with one breath, avoiding the shooting distance of the crossbow arrows. But as soon as someone shows their heads, there will be a loud bang on the big boats, and then a hail will fall on the water, and the surface of the water will be like a boiling pot, and the outcropping person will immediately become a dead fish, and countless streams of blood will come out of his body, and even those who do not show their heads around him will be affected.

Then several dinghys were lowered from the big boat, and the crew of the small boat circled the anchorage of the big ship over and over again with hand crossbows, hooks, and lanterns. No matter how fast you swam as fast as you swam or rowed, there was no hope of attacking a boat full of people with your bare hands. As long as the people on the dinghy see movement in the water, they will shoot into the water, and at the same time, several sharp hooks will also reach over and stir around, as long as they are hooked, they will not run. The people in the dinghy were still very cruel, leaving no one alive at all, and after hooking anyone, they would directly stab them in the water with the tip of the hook spear, and only after they were sure that they were dead would they be pulled to the side of the dinghy.

Friendly troops don't want to see each other, and the enemy army comes to harass in the middle of the night, even good-tempered people will get angry, not to mention that Kong Pei is not really good-tempered. At dawn the next day, he took two warships, guided by two small boats, to the north shore where the Mongol army was encamped, and sailed from the west to the east from a distance of more than 100 meters from the shore, as if inspecting a guard of honor.

The Mongol army on the shore also discovered these two large ships, and at first thought they were going to land, so they immediately organized a cavalry of several hundred men and followed Kong Pei's two ships along the shore. Bullhorns also sounded in the camp, and soon a large number of Mongol troops ran to the river, ready to meet the enemy. If the generals of the Mongol army were replaced by Javanese generals at this time, his first reaction would not be to prevent the two ships from landing, but to run inland with the people. Because they understand that as soon as such a ship approaches, the first thing that will happen is not landing, but shelling! The only countermeasure is to stay away.

It's a pity that Kukude is not a Javanese general, and he can't think of any other way for these two ships to hurt himself than to transport the Song Dynasty troops to land. Due to the fact that it was 100 meters away from the shore, it was still a moving target, and there was interference from the river wind, so it was difficult for the Mongol army's hard bow to shoot accurately. So tens of thousands of people and horses on the shore stared at the two big ships and two small boats in the river as they sailed in front of their eyes, from west to east, and then turned back and continued from east to west.

"Come on, go to the painter, draw these big ships, especially those sails, and you must paint them carefully." Kuode also watched the performance of the two big ships on the shore, he watched the sailmen on the mast of the Haibo jump up and down between the ropes, he felt that it was very profound, and he couldn't understand the principle for a while, but in his consciousness he felt that it was worth learning from, what should he do? He didn't have a camera, so he had to rely on a painter to paint on the spot, and he planned to take it back to his father to discuss whether he could find skilled craftsmen from various countries to copy it. If you can build a few of these big ships, it will be much easier to attack the cities of the Song Dynasty.

What is Kong Pei doing? He was not putting on a show for the Mongol army, let alone demonstrating, he was trying to probe the depth and current of the water on the north bank of the Han River, and to prepare for the shelling. As for what the Mongol army thinks, he doesn't care, he has followed Hong Tao around Jawa Island no less than 20 times, and each time it has been successful, and he doesn't think that the Mongol army can see through his tricks. He is now going to do the thing of Hong Tao bullying the army with naval guns on Jawa Island again, and he has not even changed the program, it is already perfect, why change it?

"Order the Quanzhou, shell the group of people on horseback on the high ground with me, and let him use the 80 guns on the deck, one more is one, those are Mongolian generals, and if you kill one more, you will make a lot of money." The two-kilometer voyage from the west to the east was to detect the depth of the water, and when the bow of the ship was turned over, and then from east to west, the Haibo and the Quanzhou behind it could enter a state of shelling at any time, but in order not to disturb the enemy, the gun doors were not opened. At this time, on the artillery deck below the deck, each gun has already been loaded with shells, and just waiting for the order to open the gun, open the gun door, push the gun carriage into position, and then you can ignite and fire.
