Chapter Eighty-Nine: I'm Going to Say Hello

The missionary problem is inevitable for Yang Feng to face, since he wants to develop the economy and play international trade to suck the blood of Europeans, then these guys will inevitably follow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He is not very worried about the common people in the country believing this, at this time, the red-haired ghost is not a person in the eyes of ordinary people, even if the eyes of the people under his rule have been broadened a lot, this problem is still very serious, not to mention the admiration of foreign people, even the Ji Yuan does not accept them, and later there is no way Yang Feng bought a large number of women from the Wa Kingdom and Goryeo to build an official Ji Yuan, so as to solve the problem of hunger after those foreign sailors go ashore.

If you want the Chinese people to believe in God at this time, it must be a big project.

In the future, as time goes by, the lives of the common people are getting better and better, and his godhead is becoming more and more stable, so no one believes in their things? God, angels, prophets, saints who have seen? Who has seen those so-called miracles? Is there a Yang Da Handsome Cow? Which of the heroes in the Bible can beat Yang Dashuai? Can the prophet drag out a steelmaking furnace of tens of thousands of catties out of the air? What's more, Yang Dashuai is only an immortal disciple, can your angel God beat Yang Dashuai's master or even the immortals above?

You see, why should we believe that even this question is not guaranteed?

If you say yes, then find one for us to see, we haven't seen other immortals, Yang Dashuai is dangling in front of us every day, if you want us to believe in God's words, first find a saint or simply let the Pope fight Yang Dashuai alone.

Well, with the small physique of the current Pope Clement XI, it is estimated that Yang Dashuai can be put down without plugging at all.

"By the way, when will my battleship arrive?"

Yang Feng asked.

The British still owed him ten battleships, including three seventy-two-gun battleships and seven cruisers, which were originally intended to be sent to him directly from the British mainland, but because of the tense situation in Europe and the imminent war, the British government, which had originally agreed to sell the three battleships to the East India Company, repented. The East India Company had no choice but to build it for him in Bombay, but the amount of work to build battleships was not to build those cruisers of five or six hundred tons, the latter could build shipyards that could build armed merchant ships, and the East India Company's shipyards in Mumbai were under no pressure, but the battleships were not so simple, so the original schedule had to be greatly delayed.

Of course, they didn't give Yang Feng these warships, and Yang Feng wouldn't give them crucible steel technology, so the East India Company itself was also in a hurry.

"The three battleships will not be completed until at least next year, but the seven cruisers are estimated to have set sail from Bombay by now."

Howard said.

"Well, in that case, you can build me four more ships, and hand them all over to me by the end of next year, but these four must be built to the standard of a second-class ship."

Yang Feng said.

"No problem."

Howard said with a smile.

He is not afraid that Yang Feng will build another forty ships, during this time Yang Feng has gained too many benefits from them, although the East India Company has also made a lot of money, but after all, he still feels a little unwilling, and this kind of battleship costs tens of thousands of pounds, and four second-class battleships can get back at least two or three hundred thousand pounds, such a big business is not afraid of the more the better, as for Yang Feng's naval strength enhancement, this is not within their consideration, and there are Dutch people in the middle!

Of course, he did not know that it would not be long before the East India Company would have to face these self-built warships.

After discussing this issue, the two of them had nothing to say, the battle on Yang Dashuai's side had already begun, of course, it was impossible to delay too long in Changguo, and then returned to Hangzhou by boat.

When he left, he brought the unlucky rhinoceros with him, and quickly equipped the mount with a full set of equipment, because he had to withstand the huge power of his dancing four-hundred-pound meteor hammer, the saddle was made of titanium alloy by Lin Qian, and the binding strap was also a high-strength modern material, only in this way could it be guaranteed to be strong enough, otherwise it would become a joke if the meteor hammer fell from above.

He even made an extra armor for the beast......

Uh, although the armor on its body is thick enough.

But after all, this is going to the battlefield, and he spent a lot of money to get this thing from India, in case a bullet is killed, it will not be a loss, although the power of the Qing army's smoothbore gun is limited, but this kind of thing is still prepared, anyway, just the weight of this rhinoceros, I don't care about adding a few hundred catties.

However, the main purpose of this armor is to be aesthetically pleasing.

This set of armor is made of high-strength titanium alloy plates, which are draped over the rhinoceros, and a golden dragon dancing in the clouds is depicted on the left and right, and a mask of the same material is put on the bull's head, and the material of the mask is relatively thick, not to mention the smoothbore gun bullets at this time, even modern rifle bullets are difficult to penetrate. And the single horn was drilled holes, a armor sleeve made of alloy steel was set on it, fixed with bolts, and it could be disassembled when not in use, and the front end of the armor sleeve was lengthened with bladed sharp corners, not to mention those Qing army war horses, even the heavy city gate could be pierced open at once.

After this set of equipment is added, this rhinoceros is quite popular.

The beast with a shoulder height of two meters and a body length of nearly four meters is covered with silver armor that can be used as a mirror, the golden dragon dances on the armor, and carries a silver horn nearly one meter long on its head, and a golden saddle on its back, Yang Dashuai, who has a scarlet cloak behind the red robe and silver armor, hangs the meteor hammer that has killed at least thousands of people behind the saddle, and Yang Dashuai is still carrying his Qinglong Yanyue knife in his hand......

In short, when he walked into Wangjiang Gate with the reins in such a posture under the escort of those dragoons whose heads could reach his knees, the people on both sides were stupid, and then they all knelt on the ground.

This is still a human being, and it is clearly a god descending from heaven!

Those immortals in the Romance of the Gods are nothing more than that!

Especially the short-tempered, highly myopic eyes, and the rhinoceros who often does not react through the brain also likes to hit the crowd, although it was pulled back by the handsome man immediately, but it still scared many people into weak legs and even peed their pants.

"Marshal, what's this?"

In front of the Marshal's Mansion, Gao Huai, who came out to greet him, was also taken aback, and said while dodging the rhinoceros that tried to pick it.

"Ben Shuai's mount, this thing is called the big one-horned rhinoceros, it is said that we also have distribution in southern Yunnan, the war horse is too weak, and it can't charge into battle while riding, this thing is no problem."

Yang Feng came down and said casually.

It's not that the war horse is too weak, it's that your old man is too fierce.

Gao Huai was slandered in his heart, and suddenly his mind moved, and he subconsciously said: "Dashuai, do you want to?" ”

"Where's the Tartar?"

Yang Feng didn't answer him, but asked with a deep smile.

"Sabusu arrived at Jianqiao, Ma Sanqi arrived at Gudang, and Yabu's camp was in Yuhang."

Gao Huai said.

Hangzhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, this ancient city is a military fortress that has evolved from thousands of years of war experience, and the geographical location is to put the attackers in the most disadvantageous position. There is the West Lake in the west, the canal in the north, the Tiesha River in the east, in fact, there is a canal outlet to the east, and the Qiantang River in the south is protected, in fact, only the northwest and east are left for the attackers.

But that was in ancient times, with the development of military technology, crossing the canal in the north of the city to attack the Genshan Gate, the Wulin Gate is no longer realistic, because it will be used as a target by the cannons on the city wall, the canal is only a few hundred meters away from the city wall, and the bow and arrow can't shoot that far in the past, but now the Ming army can even hit the surface of the canal with rifles.

So left to the Qing army is also the northwest corner, the narrow corridor between the West Lake and the canal is Gudang, but this is not the modern Gudang has become a residential area, at this time Gudang is a swamp wetland, a stream and ditch crisscrossed and crisscrossed, in fact, it is really impossible to attack, although some roads can pass soldiers, but heavy weapons such as cannons don't talk nonsense,.

The most practical direction of attack really left for the Qing army is to cross the canal from the northeast, and then attack the Taiping Gate like Yang Feng, that is, Qingchun Gate, Qingtai Gate, and Wangjiang Gate.

"But if we let the Qing army cross the canal, our supply routes will be threatened."

Gao Huai said.

Once the Qing army crossed the canal in the east, then the Ming army could only retreat to the city wall, it didn't matter if the time was short, but it was very troublesome to last for a long time, because it had to rely on the Qiantang River shipping, although the materials could go ashore and enter the city through the tide gate, but there was not enough buffer zone, it was very dangerous after all. Once the Qing army attacks like crazy, it is very likely to threaten the tide gate, after all, there is no danger in this place, so it is best for the Ming army's eastern defense line to move forward, not relying on the city wall but moving forward to the canal. It is enough to dig trenches on the side of the canal and put barbed wire, this defense system cannot be broken through by the Qing army at all, the only problem is that such a defense will be relatively wide, this defense line will be nearly ten miles long, at least more than the strength of a brigade.

Fortunately, the Ming army is currently three brigades guarding Hangzhou, but it is not too short of people, such a defensive arrangement can still bear, especially the southernmost part of this line of defense, in fact, most of them are within the range of naval guns on the Qiantang River, although the cruiser can't drive, but there are still a bunch of inland warships on the river, a salvo of hundreds of shells is still no problem, enough to kill those Qing troops in the south.

"Yes, it's laid out according to your plan, but before that, I'll build me a pontoon bridge, a pontoon bridge to the north bank of the canal, and I'll go and say hello to Sabusu first."

Yang Feng said gloomily.
