Chapter 229: Two-masted Clipper vs. Dhow Swordfish

The first self-produced sea boat in the Liuqiu Badaohe area was born, which was a little later than expected, but it made Zhang Guoan very happy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it took a full four months, this sea ship may be the first armed merchant ship in this time and space to be equipped with thermal weapons, and at the same time, it can be used as a warship of the Stream Guard.

Four boat Tiger guns were added to the left and right sides of its deck, and the four sides of the gun emplacements were lowered in height.

The layout on the deck was only tweaked a little bit to make the deck a little larger so that the crew could also focus their shots.

Zhang Guoan also asked to give full play to the advantages of the fire-cap type mini gun.

In Zhang Guoan's mind, this is just a transitional product, and he did not hesitate to give a "river" name...... It was directly named the Ann River warship.

Although the members of the team who are most suitable for the HNA have been sent out by him, the sea patrol of the Liuqiu Guard has never been interrupted, and every member of the team has experience in sea patrol, and even, in the Badaohe area, it has been expanded to the extent that three sloop saury boats are put into the sea patrol at the same time.

After having the Anhe, Zhang Guoan decided to implement a fixed patrol system between the first river and the eight rivers, and immediately put on the Mading River and the Heping River at the same time, and strive to complete it within May 1266, so as to achieve the primary goal of two pairs, people stopping the ship without stopping, and one for mobile use.

Zhang Guoan demanded that the Liuqiu Guards should strengthen training on land and sea at the same time!

When he directly attributed the ship to the Liuqiu Guard, Captain Bowie was overjoyed, and more and more equipment belonged to them...... Zhang Guoan found him and said, "How are you going to arrange this boat?" ”

Captain Bao Wei said: "I want Vice Captain Huang Zu to be the captain...... He's commanding ships and has more experience than our guys......"

Zhang Guoan shook his head and said, "It's not good, you have to arrange for your brothers to take turns to be captains, and let the other team members take turns to be sailors!" ”

During the first sea trials of the Ann River. Zhang Laoshi, the factory director, and his own craftsmen also got on the boat with the team members.

At this time, he received a strange piece of clothing, and was ordered by Zhang Guoan to wear it...... This is basha wood, the lightest wood in the world, it weighs one-tenth of water, and Zhang Guoan cut it into pieces as soon as the first batch of wood matured. Sewn into a clip-on garment, it was found that a person who could float up to 60 kilograms for at least five hours was fine.

Director Zhang Laoshi pinched the wooden block and said to Zhang Guoan: "Bow of the ship, it is the first time in my life that I have seen such light wood...... But the old man can swim in the water for a day without incident......"

Zhang Guoan didn't answer him, but said: "This kind of balsa wood can be thinned and glued together with gum." You can think about what it does in shipbuilding......"

Director Zhang Laoshi fell into deep thought, the words of the bow of the ship made a lot of sense, think about it.

Zhang Guoan watched them set off for sea trials on the dock, thinking to himself, I hope I can build a fleet.

As the saying goes, it's a hundred years of the navy, but that refers to the spirit of the navy, and he believes that he uses technology two years later. You will definitely be able to defeat the Tatar army!

He was thinking about the Tatar army, and they were thinking about him......

The base camp of the Tatar naval army. Shandong Huanggang, the commander of the navy, Boltjin, finally began to worry about his three warships, from here to Liuqiu Island, three months back and forth is enough, even if something is delayed, it can't be seven or eight months without news...... Could it be that all three ships were shipwrecked at the same time? They're all veterans. It can't be such a coincidence, right......

The Yao family in Huangdao, Shandong Province, also often came to ask people that they couldn't live without seeing people and dead bodies like this.

The commander of the navy, Brepjin, sent a fast boat to Liuqiu Oshima to take a look and bring a message back.

The so-called clippers of this plane are brigs. The boat has a lighter load capacity and can sail more than twice as fast as a normal sea vessel.

With the help of the northeast monsoon, they quickly galloped south along the continental coastline.

At this time, Shandong Huangdao and Shandong Mizhou were vigorously building sea ships, and they were preparing for the southward attack on the Great Song Dynasty, so in terms of overall momentum, the Tatar naval army was far stronger than the Great Song naval army.

The Tatar navy sent clippers to find out, but on Chongming Island at the mouth of the Yangtze River, they were furious at the failure of their sneak attack on the Badaohe area.

Zhu Qing was furious and said: "Thousands of people, five big ships, all veterans of the sea, will be wiped out by hundreds of families!" ”

His deputy and friend Zhang Xuan also said with great heartache: "Five big ships...... and they are all theirs......"

The servant in their house wiped his sweat and said, "I heard they have arquebuses...... It is the kind of arquebus used by the Great Song Dynasty Imperial Army, and they also have stone cannon military stone cannons, which is really unexpected......"

Zhu Qing suddenly stood up and said, "Go sue them!" Dare to use the Great Song Dynasty armament in private! ”

His deputy and friend Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't that just saying it, are we involved in this matter?" ”

“……”

The little official immediately said, "Fortunately, they haven't realized that I am waiting behind the scenes......

Indeed, he had sent the captain of the previous ship a few days earlier to find out what was going on, but they were received by two and a half sons, as if nothing had happened......

The profits of sea salt smuggling are huge, but the two of them are a little unwilling to give money to overseas traders in vain, why do they occupy a desert island and make a lot of sea salt and ask me to wait for money?!

And what about the five big ships I was waiting for?!

But what to do? For a while, the three of them couldn't find a good way...... From the public point of view, they don't have a chance of winning, and the relationship between Zhang Chuanshou and Da Song seems to be better than his own; Personally, they are already recruiters, and the Great Song Dynasty has a tradition of protecting overseas merchants, judging from the last action, they are still not easy to provoke, and they have to concentrate more talents......

In the end, I decided to endure it first, there will always be a chance.

They sent people to Huainan to see if it was easy to dig up coal...... Thinking of this, the two brothers had an idea, if they couldn't rob the Badaohe area, it would be better to go to the northern coast to rob people...... If they are allowed to dig coal for nothing, then, if they only take care of food, they will also save a lot of money.

The three of them knew the coast of the northern continent very well, where it was suitable, and the three of them decided on the case after a while, and they set off in two teams, one team to find the coal mine, and the other team to wait for the opportunity to catch labor.

The Clipper of the Tatar Navy soon arrived on the island of Liuqiu, and it saw directly the buildings of a river area...... They saw that there were no big ships docked at all on the big pier...... As they were watching, they suddenly saw a dhow boat speeding towards them.

The captain of the clipper ship was a little stunned, I am waiting for a ship that is bigger than you, and there are more people than you...... How dare you provoke me alone?! (To be continued.) )
