Liu Renliang? The name is very familiar, well, by the way, snap, I slapped my thigh, and remembered, the commander of the Tang Dynasty Navy who fought with the Japanese and Baekje is also called this name, but I don't know if it's the same person.

However, out of help to him, I also thanked him with courtesy: "Hehehe, I have met Liu Changshi in Fang Jun, the head of the Tang Military Academy. ”

Liu Renliang couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard me report to his home like this, looked at me twice, seemed to feel inappropriate, and asked with some hesitation: "Fang Jun, but the son of Fang Xiang, who wrote "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and ran "Tang Times Weekly", Fang Junfang beloved. ”

"Fang Mou exactly." I replied with some joy, I really didn't expect that my name would spread so widely, well, it seems that the title of Datang Wenhao is indispensable.

Liu Renliang looked overjoyed, and solemnly replied: "Oh, Liu is really respectful." Xia Guan is very respectful of the adult's literary talent, why I have lived in Xin'an for a long time, I haven't been able to see the adult, now I see it, but it makes Xia Guan a little at a loss, hehehe. ”

"What are these objects, so heavy?" Liu watched curiously as the soldiers placed the cannon on the deck and fixed it firmly on the deck with ropes.

"This is called artillery, attacking the city, just this thing, no matter what kind of city the other party is, but a dozen cannons, it will definitely make him collapse and the wall will collapse." I smugly boasted.

"So powerful?!" Liu Renliang couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, looked at it for a long time, touched the shiny copper barrel with his hand, and smiled at me with his hand. After chatting with this Lord Liu, this person is not bad, he is a good person to get along with, but the surname is straighter, what to say, and there will not be much chat, because it is now the loading stage, so I have to say goodbye to the Lord Liu who I just met, and continue to direct the students to load the ship at speed, and after a busy half night, I finally loaded all the people and heavy goods onto these giant ships in the middle of the night.

It is a giant ship, such as the one I am in now, at least more than 65 meters long, about 15 meters wide, about 4 meters in draft, and the highest height on the water surface has reached 15 meters, the bottom is wide at the top, the head and tail are high, and there are strong impact devices, which can plow and sink enemy ships by pressing down on the wind, and there are guard plates on both sides. The whole ship is divided into four layers, the lower floor is equipped with earth and stone ballast, the second floor is inhabited by soldiers, and the third floor is the main place to work, but the eyes are full of my army, and the upper floor is the place of battle, condescending, if the bow and arrow artillery are downward, it can often defeat the enemy.

----------------------------------------------------At this time, Liu Renliang, who was the chief of the march and had been busy for half the night, also walked to the edge of the boat, "Lord Fang is so Ya, why don't you go to rest and stay here?" ”

"Oh, Lord Liu, this is Fang's first time on a boat, I'm so excited, I can't sleep, I want to see the night view of the sea, these two, I also want to see what my Datang's invincible battleship looks like?" I said with a smile.

"My Datang warship, if it encounters an enemy at sea, it will definitely have no opponent! During the attack on Beisha City, the Goguryeo navy came to help, about 100 ships, according to the order of the general manager of Zhang, the lower officials led 10 ships and 20 fighting ships to meet them, destroying more than half of the Goguryeo ships, and the rest fled. Liu Renliang said calmly, but there was still a little smugness in his eyes.

"Oh, Fang Mou thought that the adult was just a civilian official, but he didn't want to, but he was quite proficient in naval warfare."

Liu Renliang smiled: "I don't dare to be proficient, but since I received His Majesty's holy words, since the subordinate has entered the navy, how can he be a priest in an ignorant manner?" Therefore, since then, he began to specialize in the naval army and water warfare, the heaviest in the water war, is the wind direction and the water direction, these two points are the key to the victory or defeat of the war, of course, the soldiers are also very familiar with the warship, however, the ships of my Tang Dynasty are well-made, far better than the surrounding countries, such as this building, pointed bottom and flat hull, the plane is approximately oval, the head and tail are square, there are fourteen rows of ship boards from the keel to the side side, one to ten rows are two layers of ship board superposition, eleven to thirteen rows are three layers of ship board superposition, The total thickness of the three layers is about more than a foot, and the three layers of boards are used in a mixture of wave impact near the waterproof line, and the two methods of boat board lap and flat joint. The plate is sewn with a compound made of hemp silk, bamboo ru and tung putty......"

Liu Renliang kept telling me about the advantages and disadvantages of warships, and he also had a good set of water battles. Very suggestive character. This really intrigues me, he is eloquent, and I have quite a unique view of water warfare, he has listed no less than ten kinds of tactics of the navy alone, and he has a lot of words about what kind of formation is suitable for dealing with what kind of enemy, and which kind of formation should be used to fight in what kind of weather.

At this time, Zhang Liang, Su Dingfang and others, who had also not slept all night, also walked out of Jiaxi, and when they saw that we were talking hotly, they couldn't help but come over to join in the fun.

I don't know much about the tactics and tactics of the navy, but I can't watch a lot of blockbusters about naval battles, so the scene of fighting hard in the magnificent sea makes my blood boil, especially when the two big warships face off, the dozens of artillery guns bombard each other together, and the scene of sawdust splashing and flesh flying is even more shocking.

Artillery? Artillery! Sanqing Daozun is on top, artillery, mother, almost excitedly pumped his ears, too excited, I said to Zhang Liang, the commander of the Tang Navy: "Lord Zhang, the last general has some superficial views, and I want to consult with adults." ”

Zhang Liang nodded: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

I arched my hands and said to myself: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey fate, the majestic posture of my Tang Dynasty Sailor has opened the eyes of the last general, however, after listening to Lord Liu's words, I feel that today's war methods on the sea emphasize the warship's ability to fight at angles and engage in broadside battles, such as the six poles on the left and right sides of this lucky ship, which is also to facilitate close combat, but it seems that there are not many ways to strike at a distance." ”

"Either no, long-range strikes are mostly used to hit the opponent's ship with crossbow rockets, or to throw fire oil with trebuchets to destroy their ships." Liu Renliang shook his head and said he disagreed with me.

I nodded, agreeing with the opinion of Liu Renliang, who was proficient in the tactics of the sailor, but I continued to elaborate my opinion: "The strength of the hull of my ship is not trivial, presumably Chief Manager Zhang should have seen the power of the artillery carried on the ship by the last general, right?" ”

"That's nature, the power of this cannon does have the power of landslides and earth cracks." Zhang Liang nodded in praise. I then said, "What if you put this weapon on a ship to resist the enemy?" ”

Zhang Liang, Liu Renliang, Pei Xingjian and others were all stunned, but Su Dingfang was first startled, and then slapped his thigh: "Then it's good to be in a hurry, if this thing is placed in the boat, if it encounters an enemy ship, you don't need to get close, just shoot it outside Lixu, and send them all to the sea to feed the fish." ”

---------------------------------------------------- Zhang Liang and Liu Renliang glanced at each other, and then discussed something quietly and excitedly, looking at Zhang Liang's expression, I know that he must be very excited about my suggestion, Datang This is an era of take-off, everyone welcomes new things with an open mind, and it is not like the last era of braids, When they saw anything, they were beaten to death with crooked ways, leaving China behind the world for several centuries.

It is precisely because of Datang's open-mindedness and his open-mindedness that comes from the heart of the nation. It has made the Tang Dynasty a great country that the world of this era understands and yearns for, which is one of the reasons why later generations called the gathering place of the Chinese nation abroad Chinatown.

Liu Renliang narrowed his eyes and thought for a while: "Can this thing really be installed on the building ship for combat?" ”

I nodded solemnly: "Naturally, Chief Zhang should have seen the power of this thing, as long as the gunner practices more, even if he is on a bumpy ship, he can still make the other party fall under the muzzle of my Datang fleet at a great distance." If not, tomorrow morning, when the sky is bright, we can find a target on this ship and let the adults see how powerful it is. ”

Zhang Liang, the commander of the navy of the Tang Dynasty, spoke at this time: "Don't be in such a hurry, you need to rush to the mouth of Huangshui early in the morning, this way, it will not be calm, when the time comes, there will naturally be a time to test the artillery, all the generals will go to rest first, travel on the sea, the most taboo is not enough rest, after setting sail tomorrow, if you are seasick, don't blame the old man for not reminding you." ”

Early the next morning, fifty ships and a hundred fighting ships, as well as some ships of various types, all raised their sails and cleaved the waves, the first time I took the boat, I was so excited that although I only slept for half a night last night, but I was still in good spirits after getting up in the morning, I stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the endless tumbling, stirring the foaming waves, which were fiercely split by the head, and shattered into waves and slid on both sides.

On the side, my two loyal recruits, Fang Cheng and Bo Narjin, were hugging each other and spitting ......
