Chapter 485: Look at Your Highness

Anyway, they are all unpowered sail battleships, no matter how they change, many things on them are the same, and it took about two hours for Li Zhilong to familiarize his subordinates with almost the same, except that they can't fire, they are not much different from their warships in other aspects, so they immediately set sail.

In the process of leaving the port, Li Zhilong also discovered that this kind of sail is much more advanced than theirs, even if it encounters a headwind, after calculation, they can move forward, which is more suitable for ocean sailing.

"Your Highness, do you want to get on the boat too?"

Li Zhilong said with some worry, he took his brothers to the sea to try, this is an uncertain battle, if he takes Li Xiang over, then his head is worried at any time, once something happens to Li Xiang, the whole family will die.

"Don't you train regularly? We're either going out to fight or sailing around the sea, and now it's sunny and the weather isn't bad, so what's there to worry about? ”

Li Zhilong looked at the sky in the distance as Li Xiang said, according to his experience, there will definitely be no problems with the weather recently, if it is just sailing in the near sea, nothing should happen, not to mention that Li Xiang has already gone up, he can't pull His Highness down again.

There were a total of one hundred and fifty sailors of all kinds on board, which was also the standard establishment, of course, most of them should serve the surrounding artillery, but no one could fire the cannon yet, everyone ran to help, and in a short time, the ship had already left the port.

"The sailing speed is too fast, and the rudder is also very useful, the turning is much better than our Datang sailor warship, it can be said that it is a transcendence in all aspects, where did Your Highness get the blueprints? Such warships are simply a decade ahead of ours. ”

Li Zhilong said very happily, if Li Xiang came to see it, it would be all wooden boats, how could there be such a big difference? But Li Zhilong is an expert, just walked a corner, people know that this kind of warship is much better than the Tang warship, after all, this is a thousand years later, in this thousand years, our sailor warship has also developed for several generations.

After a few hours, Li Zhilong's subordinates basically knew how to operate, although they were not very familiar with it, but as long as they were given a period of practice, they would soon be able to master such a warship, and on the way back, Li Xiang also saw that many people were interested in artillery, although this is a relatively backward front-loading artillery, but in this era, it is definitely the first in the world.

Regarding the application of artillery, Li Xiang asked his subordinates, as long as it is exchanged from the system, they will basically use the weapons in the system, so when they went ashore, Li Xiang left them forty instructors, these people not only want to teach them to sail boats, but also teach them how to shoot guns.

Li Xiang also tested the power of the cannonball, which looked like a big black ball, but the gunpowder in it was still not weak, the range was about five kilometers, and the explosion power was equivalent to three to four grenades, so it was still okay to use.

Li Xiang directly exchanged forty third-level warships, which can be regarded as a training ship for them first, and when they use it about the same, Li Xiang will exchange it in large quantities, and now this point is no longer a matter for Li Xiang, just take the points that have just broken through the capital of Goguryeo, the points can form a sailor, and the previous points are not used at all.

When Li Xiang returned to his tent, Qin Huaiyu also came back from outside, and learned that Li Xiang went to the sea for a day today, but this kid was scared, the general just left today, and your old man ran to the sea, we can be sure of things on land, but things on the sea can't be messed around, once something happens, the emperor can't slaughter the whole camp? Who made you the grandson of the Tang Dynasty!

"My Highness, can you give us people a little way to live, we have just made such a great contribution, the court's reward will, we are sleeping in our arms before it is hot, you are going to sail on the sea, can you go to the sea casually? Ten ships can capsize eight ships, if something happens, we can still say it, if something happens, we won't be alive? ”

Qin Huaiyu has now completely forgotten the respect and humility of the elders and young, and Su Dingfang and Niu Jinda also ran back from outside, just because they knew that Li Xiang was on the ship, and it was really too dangerous to sail on the sea in this era.

Although Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang didn't speak, they could see from the expressions of the two that the two were also very dissatisfied with Li Xiang's move, you old man must always understand what your identity is, those ordinary people drowned and drowned, if you take a sip of water at sea, maybe Chang'an City will change dramatically, who will bear this responsibility at that time?

"Okay, okay, the warship I took out is different from what you imagined, not as brittle as you think, soon our sailor will be established, and then you will know why I dare to go into the water, first of all, have you contacted them about the two countries in the south?"

Li Xiang hurriedly found a topic to tear away, if he didn't find a topic, he didn't know how long these three people would interrogate him, looking at the expressions on the faces of the three of them, they must have discussed it a long time ago.

This point really made Li Xiang guess correctly, the three of them all knew that the Dengzhou sailor was coming, in case His Royal Highness was going to sail on the ship at every turn, then they really couldn't agree to this matter, after all, no one could decide what was going on on the sea, in case of a natural disaster, everyone would not be able to explain the credit in Goguryeo, and their whole family would inevitably ask for it.

"The matter in the south is not important, let's talk about today's matter first, His Highness must promise us, if we really want to sail on the ship in the future, at least two of the three of us must be accompanied, if we don't agree to this, the three of us will not report anything today."

Su Dingfang said boldly, they have been with Li Xiang for a long time, and they also know that Li Xiang is not the kind of person who oppresses people with things, and this matter is related to their net worth and life, and they must get Li Xiang's approval, otherwise they will not dare to let Li Xiang board the ship again......
