Chapter 856: Practice

Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 inforeadx;

Fuzhou Port, Kaitai Wanliu giant ship slowly left the port, under the escort of several warships sailing towards the open sea, Deng Pengfeng recalled Dingzhou and Li Qing to discuss the next naval division strategy, is preparing to return, according to Li Qing's meaning, the next thing is to find the last main force of the Pang army's naval division, annihilate it, and let the southern army naval division completely withdraw from the Heishui Ocean, so as to ensure that Dingzhou's huge caravan ships can pass unimpeded on the Heishui Ocean.

When I went back, there were hundreds of people on board, all of whom were from the first arsenal in Dingzhou, and at the same time, there were dozens of huge boxes and hundreds of small boxes on the ship, Deng Peng had learned from Li Qingli that these boxes were filled with the latest long-range strike weapons developed by the first arsenal in Dingzhou, and the first batch of finished products were equipped on the Kaitai, which will be tested and tested at sea for the first time.

Seeing the expression of the lord when he talked about these things, Deng Peng knew that the guys in these boxes were absolutely powerful, but he was still a little worried, the new weapons for the soldiers, need a process of adaptation and proficiency, and now they are about to find the Pang Jun Navy Division for the final battle, and now they are loaded up, I am afraid that it will weaken the combat effectiveness of the Kaitai, but after thinking about it, with the overwhelming advantage of his own sailors now, even if the combat power of the Kaitai is weakened, it will not affect the final result of this operation, Just find Pang Junshui and it's all over.

Fuzhou Port has disappeared from view, all around is the vast blue sea, the huge waves lined up by the Kaitai extend into the distance, the waves collide with each other, stirring up the white waves that rush to the sky, the seabirds circle and sprint down, a low sweep and fly high Deng Peng was a little fascinated to see the good fleet chopping waves forward, he knew that he would not have many opportunities to stand on the bridge like this in the future......

This time I went back to Dingzhou...... In addition to discussing the next battle with the Lord, it is more to discuss the future development path of the Sailor Division, in fact, the Pang Army is no longer enough to trouble, the Lord called himself back to Dingzhou, to a greater extent, for the future direction of the Sailor Division, after the annihilation of the last strength of Pang Xuan, there is no fleet on the sea that can be the enemy of the Dingzhou Navy, that is to say, the Dingzhou Sailor with huge combat power will have no battle to fight...... But if the fleet that has been built up at a huge cost of idle and has to invest a lot of money every day to maintain it, it will inevitably be too cost-effective, so the lord pointed the sword of the sailor overseas in the next step...... Zheng Zhiyuan's advance fleet conquered part of the new continent, which had already given Dingzhou a taste of sweetness, and the next ...... It's going to be a heavy throw.

The lord will have a thorough understanding of the next water strategy with Deng Peng, and the lord will set up a naval headquarters outside the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies will also be transformed into the Army Command, and Master Li Muzhi will be the commander of the Army Command, and he will serve as the commander of the Navy, that is to say...... I'm about to take off my robe...... I sat in the office of the Navy Command in Dingzhou......

Deng Peng himself also understands that compared with the Dingzhou Army, the power and strength in his hands now are too great, unlike the Army...... The various armies restrain each other, and the sailors completely hold their own hands, which is obviously not in the interests of the country, even for themselves, it is not a good thing, and the lord can arrange it like this...... It's already a lot of trust to break yourself.

Under the command of the Navy, three fleets will be temporarily discussed, one is Zheng Zhiyuan's fleet, one is Yin Ning's fleet, and one fleet will be commanded by his former deputy Zhuang Youbao...... The three fleets, Yin Ning's fleet, will also sail overseas to find a new continent in the other direction, because according to the lord's pre-law, along the ocean, in any direction, you will eventually find new land, and Zhuang Youbao's fleet is responsible for the maritime security of the mainland.

Through talking with the lord, Deng Peng found that the lord's thinking has obviously shifted to expanding the territory overseas, so the status of the sailors in the new dynasty will be higher and higher in the future, which can be seen from the fact that the lord listed the sailors separately and established a command on a par with the army...... With the end of the war on the mainland, the future war will be transferred to the sailors overseas......

It's just a pity that I can't personally command the ship to cut through the waves...... Deng Peng has some small regrets, but compared to letting his favorite fleet sail on the sea forever, Deng Peng doesn't care that he has been staying on land since then, as he did many years ago, building a big pool in his own home, and building some ship models to meet his own ** fighting on the water.

The three fleets were established, each responsible to the naval command, and it is conceivable that the lord will inevitably carry out a large-scale mixing of the fleet, and the personnel changes of the three fleets will be very large, and he must consider these now, first come up with a draft, and then ask the lord for his opinion.

Deng Peng was thinking about it, and an officer went to the bridge, saluted him, and said loudly: General Deng, we are ready to assemble the Shenwei cannon, and the test site of the pioneer ship has also been selected, it is a small island in the desert a hundred miles away, and the pioneer ship has built some models on it for us to test, and tomorrow at noon, we will arrive there

Deng Peng nodded, "Let the people from the arsenal start assembling it" That's right, our people have all arranged, let them follow and learn hard, these craftsmen can't always follow our ship, after this trip, these craftsmen will return to Dingzhou, before that, our soldiers must learn to master and operate the Shenwei cannon familiarly......

'It's all arranged,' the general......

'Hmm' go for it!.

This time, the Kaitai was loaded with fifty Shenwei cannons, all of which will be installed on the first deck, and after the Kaitai arrived at Fuzhou Port, the craftsmen of the arsenal got on the ship and began to modify the first deck, and the original long-range weapons such as the Eight Bull Crossbow were dismantled...... "There are windows on the side of the ship that can be opened, and under these windows, one by one the alarming cannons have been built, according to the craftsman, this design can reduce the huge recoil force of the Shenwei cannon when it is fired.

Deng Peng didn't know what the power of the Shenwei cannon was, but when it came to tomorrow, everything would be revealed......

On the first deck, huge shelves were set up, rollers were installed on the shelves, and thick steel wire ropes hung up those huge steel guys......

It was busy until nightfall, fifty Shenwei cannons were all installed in place, and twenty-five were installed on each side of the ship, Deng Peng went out of the hatch after dinner, and found that the deck was still brightly lit, and the craftsmen of the arsenal were in front of the Shenwei cannon, explaining the operation method of the Shenwei cannon to the sailors on the ship......

Deng Peng also walked down, standing behind the M group of soldiers, concentrating, listening to the craftsman's explanation.

You should be familiar with how to operate 'Brothers Shui Shi', right? 'Done,' the master asked aloud......

'Got it' Got it, it's pretty simple!.Someone said loudly......

In the past, everyone used to use trebuchets and other weapons, even if there was an occasional mistake, it would not be a big deal, but once you made a mistake in the operation of the Shenwei cannon, it would explode, which would kill people, and now, that brother came up to demonstrate it......

.I got it! A sailor walked up with a big grunt, "Isn't it just a matter of putting this bag of gunpowder in it, right, ramming it, then loading the iron pellet, and finally lighting the fuse, what's so difficult about it, it's easier than us operating a trebuchet!.The soldier finished his action in an instant, and looked at the craftsman proudly.

The craftsman shook his head, "This brother" is only testing a bag of soil now, if it is really gunpowder, boom, you have already broken your bones, and you will also suffer the lives of other brothers, now we will demonstrate again, please remember all the steps, not a single step!

Several craftsmen came up, some holding tongs, some holding brushes, some holding gunpowder, some holding wooden sticks, and demonstrated again from beginning to end. Do you see it clearly'The first step must be to clean the gun chamber, the second step is to cool down the gun chamber that has been fired, otherwise, the gunpowder will explode in the gun chamber, and then the charge, tamping, tamping is a technically demanding job, that is, not too tight, not too loose, how to master, need to be actually operated, and after each launch, because of the recoil, the angle of the gun body must be readjusted, aiming at the target, and improving the shooting accuracy...... That brother tried again?.

Deng Peng strode up, I'll give it a try!.

The Great General?.

Great General!.

Only then did the soldiers notice that there was one more person behind them, and they screamed and saluted Deng Peng one after another.

Deng Peng had a calm face and glanced at the crowd, "I think many people are a little unimpressed" think it's very simple, let me tell you, this seemingly simple job is actually the most difficult, if you want to reach the level of these masters, you need to practice for a long time, this master, how long have you been practicing?.

The "big general" villains practiced this technique, and it took three months to practice before they were proficient today, during which dozens of craftsmen were lost on the spot because of improper operation......

"Do you hear" these skilled hands will die because of operational errors, let alone you, pass the order, all officers come to learn first, every officer, starting from myself, must be proficient in this skill, you remember, in the future, on our ships, there will be no more trebuchets, there will be no eight bull crossbows, all will be installed with Shenwei cannons, who can't learn, can't learn, then can only withdraw from the battle sequence, go to logistics, or go ashore.

Obey the general's order!.Many sailors said in unison.

A platoon of officers stood up and followed Deng Peng and began to practice
