Chapter 18: Zhang Liang and the completion of the adaptation
Zhang Liang's arrival made Changsun Tang a little alert, but the holy decree brought by Zhang Liang made Changsun Tang fall into extreme joy, and there were only the last two pieces of news that came back before, and there was nothing about the title of Changsun Tang. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After all, the reward of this title must be a major secret of the state, and the intelligence agency set up by Changsun Tang is still short, and these high-level things are basically out of their reach.
When Zhang Liang was arranged in the evening, when the drunken eldest grandson returned home, when he saw the heroine's lady, he suddenly remembered the scene when he interrogated her.
There is definitely a problem with this Zhang Liang, it would be strange if there were so many righteous sons and dead soldiers if there were no problems, this Zhang Liang himself was better to stay away from him, and at the same time, he had to take a dike, don't let this Zhang Liang affect this Nanyang, then the trouble will be really big. Regardless of the dynasty, this rebellion is impersonal. Even His Majesty Li Er, who handled the rebellion most leniently, killed Hou Junji, and Li Chengqian was the only one who could survive the rebellion for thousands of years, because he was the son of His Majesty Li Er.
However, these things have nothing to do with the eldest grandson, and Zhang Liang's rebellion is a matter of the future. Changsun Tang only needs to prevent Zhang Liang from rebelling against these subordinates who are looking for him, and then follow the rebellion, the other Changsun Tang is not sure, but Changsun Tang still has some confidence in this.
Zhang Liang's arrival also gave the eldest grandson a great opportunity. This Zhang Liang is one of the people under Li Shimin who understands the military and politics of the navy, and in the original history, when Li Shimin conquered Goryeo, Zhang Liang served as the commander-in-chief of the navy.
The eldest grandson arranged Zhang Liang in this Jinshan Hotel, which was not far from the Hou Mansion. In order to try not to associate these things with Changsun Tang, many of Changsun Tang's current industry names are not in accordance with one name.
Early in the morning, this Zhang Liang came over, but the eldest grandson was exercising in his yard. Changsun Tang, who had just finished running four miles, was a little out of breath.
"Yo, my nephew has to exercise every day, but it's good." Zhang Liang stepped in, followed by Zhang Zhong and the porter.
Changsun Tang's originally good mood immediately became bad, you said that you are all people with status, how to enter my house is the same as walking through the city gate, do you have to count the courtesy. So the eldest grandson scolded loudly: "Oh, uncle, I came here early this morning, and I'm really going to ask my uncle later." ”
Is this a scolding? Someone wondered. The eldest grandson said: No, you can scold one and try it.
Zhang Liang said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay." I've heard that your breakfast here is good, and now I'm here to eat. "Since the implementation of the system of three meals a day by Changsun Tang, Chang'an City has basically implemented three meals a day, and the current price of grain in Datang is still acceptable.
"Oh, after that, every morning I asked someone to send some to my uncle, so that my uncle would not have to go back and forth." Zhang Liang's body is a little fat, which is rare in the court of His Majesty Li Er.
At this time, the division of labor among the civil and military generals was not too clear. Just get someone over, you can compare it with one or two strokes, and don't get off the horse to govern the people or something, it's not too simple. Although this Zhang Liang has commanded the navy, he is actually famous for his politics.
"That's not necessary. Do you do this every day? Zhang Liang asked rhetorically.
"Yes, sweating makes your body feel lighter."
"Oh, it's better to be young." Zhang Liang sighed a little.
After breakfast, just as the two of them were eating, the eldest grandson asked Zhang Liang, "Uncle, I heard that you once led a naval army before?" ”
"Hey, that's early, and it's not a leader, it's just running blindly on the Yangtze River." Zhang Liang said.
"Uncle, you are modest, the little nephew has something to ask my uncle about this water army right now." Changsun Yu said.
"If there's something you can just say, there's no need to make it so troublesome." Zhang Liang replied, and took a big sip of tea from the purple clay pot.
"Uncle, how was this previous navy organized? Now this Nanyang Navy needs to be reorganized, which is sad to me. The eldest grandson told the story.
"I thought what you were talking about, I can't help with other helps, I happen to know something about this, I'll say what I know, your navy in the sea and the river are not the same, you just make a reference first, I estimate that there will be problems if you use it directly." Zhang Liang said.
"It's the sleepiness that meets the pillow, uncle, come quickly." The eldest grandson was a little anxious.
"There are generally two situations in this preparation, which need to be based on the actual situation. If the ships of the same type are grouped together, the logistical support can be more effective, and a certain capability can be strengthened to the greatest extent. Zhang Liang said unhurriedly.
"This is also a common method of formation so far, so that it is more convenient for the command of officers." Zhang Liang then said.
The eldest grandson didn't speak, just looked at Zhang Liang.
After a slight pause, Zhang Liang continued: "This is also the most common method of organization at present, the organization of grain transportation, the formation of fire attack, and the formation of jumping gang battles are grouped together, just like pikemen and pikemen, cavalry and cavalry are organized together. ”
"If we mix cavalry and infantry, then the role of cavalry will not be played." Zhang Liang's words Changsun Tang agreed, but this is not what Changsun Tang needs at present, and some people have suggested that the Yellow Emperor should be organized together with three ships, and twelve cruisers should be grouped together and divided into two teams, but Changsun Tang is not optimistic about this method.
Looking at Changsun Tang's somewhat hesitant look, Zhang Liang knew that Changsun Tang was not going to adopt this idea, so he didn't wait for Changsun Tang to ask, so he said it first: "In fact, although the formation of cavalry and spears just mentioned is an example, there are also inappropriate places, if the pikemen can have the same speed as the cavalry, then when the cavalry charges, the pikemen can be on the side, which is also a method of preparation." ”
The eldest grandson was attracted by Zhang Liang's statement at this time, so he asked, "Uncle, I would like to hear about it." ”
"This is another method of organizing naval vessels, and the advantages of this kind of mixing are also obvious, that is, this kind of formation can perform many tasks, and if many different types of ships are organized together, they can flexibly complete a variety of tasks." Zhang Liang continued.
"Uncle means this kind of mixing is okay?" Changsun Tang originally planned to compile it like this, but it was opposed by many people, which made Changsun Tang a little puzzled.
"Why not, the speed of these ships on the water is not as great as that of the cavalry and pikemen on land, and this is the basis of such an organization. As long as it can keep up, it can be completely knitted together, for example, a warship is keeping up with a logistics ship, so that the range and combat power of the warship will increase a lot. "Zhang Liang is worthy of being a master of immersion in this way, and he is clear about these things.
"So what are the good and bad things about doing this?" The eldest grandson must understand these before making corresponding decisions, which can be regarded as a necessary skill for leaders.
"Let's start with the shortcomings. First of all, logistical support is more troublesome, different ships have different tasks, and the types and quantities of materials needed are not consistent, which is easy to solve. But there is another thing that is a little more troublesome......" Zhang Liang muttered.
"Uncle might as well say it directly." The eldest grandson is now in Xingtou, and being disturbed by Zhang Liang like this will kill him.
"The other one is that the commander is not easy to find, the commander of this mixed fleet must know the advantages and disadvantages of each type of ship, and there are many people who can do this, but when to send what kind of ship, what kind of task can be completed, this is more troublesome, and it is impossible to do this without more than ten years of experience." Zhang Liang is now finished talking about this in one breath.
"And what about that?" Changsun Tang is really a little anxious now.
"The advantage is actually that different ships have different tasks, so the tasks that can be performed by mixing together are flexible and diverse." Zhang Liang said such a point, but Changsun Tang thought of it a lot.
Originally, the navy of this war and before World War I was uniformly organized, so a large fleet would have battleship formations, cruiser formations, and destroyer formations, which would be convenient for command, and this was also related to the backward communication methods and communication conditions at that time. In World War II, since the large-scale use of aircraft carriers by Japan and the United States, mixed formation has become a trend, which is a formation mode in which one or a certain type of warship is the main combat force and the others are auxiliary.
The advantage of this is that it highlights the advantages of a certain warship, maximizes the offensive attributes of the aircraft carrier, and reduces other ships to the bodyguards of the aircraft carrier.
Judging from the types and numbers of warships currently possessed by the Nanyang Navy and the tasks that need to be completed at present, the model of mixed ships with the "Yellow Emperor" as the core adopted in the last crackdown on pirates is more suitable for the current situation.
But these eldest grandsons are neither necessary nor possible to tell Zhang Liang to know.
So Changsun Tang finally decided to divide all the ships in the South Seas into four fleets, with the Yandi, Huangdi and Tang Yao as the core, to form a mixed fleet, and then set up a close defense fleet in the local port.
After three months of development, this is out of the Yellow Emperor such a big captain Sun Tang felt that there is no need to build more, this cruiser and destroyer has been built a lot, this cruiser has a name, named after the state city, with the original, the scale has now reached twelve, the destroyer has reached eighteen.
Changsun Tang combined the Yellow Emperor with three ships, one plus four cruisers, and three destroyers to form three ocean-going fleets, while the remaining nine destroyers formed the Fourth Fleet.
The literal establishment is completed, but what the establishment of the fleet is like in this way needs to be tested through actual combat.
So after a month of running-in training, these three fleets embarked on the route of conquest.
Because the main purpose of this time was to train troops, Changsun Tang led the fleet to march to the west, and Zhang Liang was naturally on board.
Originally, Zhang Liang didn't want to come anyway, but since the eldest grandson knew some things about Zhang Liang, it was definitely impossible for Zhang Liang to take care of the home by himself. So Changsun Tang put Zhang Liang up in a few words, and he couldn't get down, so he had to follow Changsun Tang on the boat.
Looking at the prevailing west wind, and the fleet can still go west, this light is shocked.
"Nephew, this is the west wind, but our fleet is actually heading west?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but be surprised, this was completely beyond his knowledge and understanding.
"Actually, there is nothing about this, it's very simple, this sail has a certain angle, and when the wind is headwind, you just need to use a tortuous course." The principle of sailing against the wind was developed by Changsun Tang for several months in this advanced technology laboratory, and he knew this principle before, and completed this discovery based on the force analysis he had learned before, and it was proved that it was feasible after transformation and experimentation.
"Can you be more specific?" Zhang Liang was still a little unconvinced.
"This lamp is back in Jinshan, to the advanced technology laboratory, where there is a special simulation device, I will talk about it later." This eldest grandson can't tell Zhang Liang about this analysis now.
The land appeared again, and the eldest grandson knew that the destination of this voyage had arrived. It's just that I never thought that this place had been taken by others.
This era is really like this: the hand is fast and the hand is slow.
Naturally, this is the choke point of ocean transportation - the Strait of Malacca. Of course, to occupy the strait, it is necessary to occupy the land at both ends of the strait, and this thick place called Singapore is naturally also in the planning of Changsun Tang.
If he could, the eldest grandson planned to take the whole of Indochina and the East Indies and even Australia. But the current situation is simply not up to the mark.
It's not that Changsun Tang doesn't have this mind, it's not that Changsun Tang doesn't have this strength, it's that Changsun Tang doesn't have so many people at hand. Although the eldest grandson is now named the hereditary Zhennan Marquis, and controls the Nanyang lands, the concept of Nanyang was not given by the imperial court.
However, with the population of the eldest grandson on hand, even the newborn babies are less than 20,000, and he is really powerless.
Uncle Li said: Talent in the 21 st century is the most important.
However, in the thirties of the seventh century, the eldest grandson said: People in the seventh century are the most important. As for whether you are talented or not, it doesn't matter anymore.
With these manpower, what Changsun Tang can do is only to retain a very small number of strategic points, and this Singapore is undoubtedly the piece of fat on the side of Changsun Tang's mouth, no matter what, it needs to be held in the palm of his hand.
Therefore, the first priority of the eldest grandson is to attack Singapore. (To be continued.) )
