Han Zhen is better, although he was a northerner in his previous life, he has been on a boat many times, and his swimming skills are okay.

Lao Jiu and other guards are not good, pure Northwest landlubbers.

The boats I have ridden in my life can be counted on my fingers, and the most important thing is that taking a boat in the river is different from that at sea.

When I was on the shore, I only felt that the wind and waves were calm, but after getting on the boat, I found that the whole ship continued to rise and fall with the waves, although the amplitude was small, but it could not stand the denseness, wave after wave.

Lao Jiu stumbled and hurriedly grabbed the guardrail on the deck to stabilize his body.

Kuang Zi saw it newly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.

Lao Jiu's knife before gave him a little unconfidence.

You must know that at the beginning, there were hundreds of water thieves under the sea tiger, and he asked himself if he could rank in the top two in terms of combat power, but in the hands of the other party, he was almost beheaded with a knife.

The performance of the other party at the moment has regained his confidence.

I can't do it on land, but when I get to the sea, Kuang Zixin feels that he can solve the other party within three moves.

led Han Zhen to the front of the navy, Kuang Zixin introduced: "This is the county magistrate Han. ”

Hearing this, a group of sailors bowed down one after another: "I've seen the county magistrate." ”

"Hmm."

Han Zhen bowed his head slightly and asked, "These soldiers are all your brothers under the command of the sea tiger?" ”

Kuang Zixin replied: "Back to the county magistrate, there are a few of them, and the rest are recruited strong fishermen. Fishermen go out to sea to fish all year round, and they are familiar with the sea and sea boats, so they are more handy in practice, and they can form combat power in a short time. But if you can't recruit people who can't handle water affairs, it will take at least half a year to adapt to life at sea, and as for combat, you will have to wait a year later. ”

"Not bad!"

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Han Zhen's eyes.

Kuang Zi's new method is exactly what he wants, and with only two or three months of practice, these fishermen can quickly form up their combat power.

In fact, the pirates on the sea today are all fucking fishermen.

On weekdays, I fished with a net, and when the opportunity came, I gathered together and worked together to do a vote.

Including Kuang Zixin, who used to be a fisherman, the fisherman's life is already hard, going out to sea to fish is equivalent to pinning his head to his waist, whether he can come back safely depends on the mood of the Sea Dragon King.

As a result, the Zhao and Song Dynasty courts were still very exploitative, and in recent years, they have raised taxes and collected money.

is also pinned to the waist, that is still a fart fish, Kuang Zixin simply threw himself into the sea tiger and became a water thief.

Looking at the more than 100 sailors in front of him, Han Zhen asked, "Do you know the treatment of my Qingzhou army?" ”

The soldiers shook their heads blankly.

Seeing this, Han Zhen turned his head and asked, "What did you say when you recruited troops?" ”

Kuang Zixin scratched his head and sneered: "I only said that I can eat enough and don't have to pay taxes." ”

When Han Zhen heard this, he said loudly: "When you join my Qingzhou Army, you will earn 500 wen a month, three dry meals a day, and one meat meal a day. There is another reward for killing the enemy in battle, beheading the first level of reward money four times, first entering the battle to capture the flag and slashing the twenty times, and there is no cap. Money, what I have is, I am not stingy with officials, and if I have the ability, I will earn a million yuan here, beg for an official, and seal my wife and son. If you don't have the ability, then you can't blame others! ”

Listening to the words, the eyes of the soldiers of the navy lit up and their hearts were surging.

I thought that I would come to be a soldier, but I just mixed up with food and clothing, avoided taxes and forced labor, but I didn't expect that the treatment would be so good.

Han Zhen shouted: "Old Nine! ”

"The last general!"

Lao Jiu stabilized his body and responded with his fists.

Han Zhen instructed: "Go and get the copper coins and give them to the soldiers." ”

"Order!"

Lao Jiu said, got off the warship in three or two steps, rode away on a war horse.

Hearing that it was time to send a fortune, the soldiers showed surprise on their faces one by one.

After a while, Lao Jiu returned, followed by an ox cart.

"Take what I want!"

Han Zhen waved his hand and took the lead in getting off the boat.

The soldiers followed, coming to the docks.

The yellow copper coin is particularly gratifying in the dazzling sunlight.

500 wen per person, a lot of money.

The soldiers were holding heavy copper coins, and their eyes when they looked at Han Zhen completely changed.

Han Zhen stood with his hands in his hands and asked with a smile, "Have you received the money?" ”

"Got it!"

"Thank you, county magistrate."

"The county magistrate is righteous."

The soldiers said with smiles on their faces.

Slowly reining in his smile, Han Zhen's face was solemn, and he said sharply: "After receiving the money and joining the army, that is the soldier of my Qingzhou Army, what you need to do is to obey, practice, and kill the enemy!" If someone cheats and cheats and violates military orders, don't blame me for not being merciful! ”

Everyone's faces changed, and the evil aura that came to their faces made their hearts flutter for a while.

In a trance, they had the illusion that they were facing a wild tiger.

Han Zhen continued: "Later, the army will promulgate the ten laws of military law, and everyone must memorize them and know them by heart. Do you understand? ”

"Understood."

The sound of a sparse puller rang out.

Han Zhen frowned and burst into a loud shout: "Do you understand?" ”

"Understand !!"

The soldiers were startled and shouted in unison.

"Yes, it's a bit of a good spirit."

Han Zhen smiled slightly, and ordered: "You are allowed to wait for a day off, take Yulu home, and report to the barracks tomorrow." ”

"Yes!"

After paying equal attention to grace and power, these soldiers were completely controlled, and they were afraid and respected Han Zhen in their hearts.

Kuang Zixin, who watched the whole process, couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

In the end, it is a hero who can lay down the land of Shandong, and the means are different, in comparison, the sea tiger is like a child.

Glancing at the remaining copper coins in the basket, there were still more than a dozen yuan, Han Zhen ordered: "Kuang Zixin, order you to be the head of the sailor, and temporarily act as the brigade commander, and the money will reward you." ”

"Thank you, County Magistrate!"

Kuang Zixin bowed down and thanked him.

Looking at the sea in the distance, Han Zhen said: "Tell me about the situation on the sea." ”

Kuang Zixin silently organized a language and replied: "County magistrate, there are many sea thieves now, and there are about 20 in the sea area of Jiaozhou Bay alone, but they are all petty fights, and they can't make any climate. There are also some pirates who are disguised as merchant ships and do business honestly on weekdays, but if they encounter a lone ship, they will turn into water thieves and plunder. ”

Han Zhen asked again: "What about Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom?" ”

"There are also water thieves in these two countries, but their numbers are scarce and their strength is extremely weak, so they don't dare to rob Zhao Song's merchant ships at all, so they can only find their own merchant ships to do it. Their maritime merchants were also very poor, and they had little oil or water to fish. ”

Kuang Zixin's tone was full of sarcasm and contempt, obviously looking down on these two countries.

In fact, during the two Song Dynasty, this was indeed the case.

The state of Goryeo was weak, the main enemy was the Jin people, and most of the energy was also focused on guarding against the Jin people, and the shipbuilding technology was backward.

The Wa Kingdom did have some foundations, but now it was the Heian period, and the emperor was stripped of his power by the shogunate, and Genji adopted a policy of seclusion and seclusion in order to stabilize his rule.

In this case, there are no sailors and water thieves.

But for Han Zhen, it is a good thing.

The surrounding sea forces are weak, and when his sailors are formed, they will be able to dominate the sea.

Thinking of this, Han Zhen was curious: "What is the naval battle like now?" ”

Kuang Zixin recalled: "At present, the naval battles are all broadside battles, and after the two ships get closer, a round of rockets will come first, and take advantage of the chaos to attack broadside. ”

The battleships at this time are so big, and the warships used by the pirates are actually remodeled from merchant ships, about thirty meters long, and they can't fit large ordnance such as catapults.

Bows and crossbows are only used as harassment, and the real difference between victory and defeat depends on the side battle.

Han Zhen said: "I just watched you practice, and there is no military formation to speak of, but it is full of arrogance. ”

Kuang Zixin hurriedly explained: "County magistrate, the sea is different from the land, the deck is so big, there is no formation at all, and the battle between the sides depends more on the individual bravery of the soldiers. ”

Han Zhen chuckled and said, "What do you think, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Hearing this, Kuang Zixin groaned: "When you were under the hands of the sea tiger, you thought about it. The deck was narrow, and even Zhao Song's Shenzhou could not spread out a large-scale military formation, so he prepared to use three people as a small team, one person with a shield for the main defense, one person with a knife for the main attack, and the other person with a spear to assist, and then three squads for a small flag, and three small flags for a general flag. ”

"If the scene is chaotic, it will be dominated by squads or small flags, divided and annihilated, and if the enemy is well defended, it will be combined into a general flag to suppress it."

Lao Jiu raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Sancai Array? It's a bit of a Western Army fancy costume. ”

The principles of the battle formation method are all the same.

The northwest is mountainous, and large-scale field battles cannot be spread, which is not conducive to the performance of pure teams, and at the same time, the cavalry is weak.

So the costume of small-scale encounters came into being.

The space on the ship is even narrower, even if it is the deck of Shenzhou, it is only more than ten meters wide, and the Sancai Array is the most suitable.

"Not bad!"

Han Zhen nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask, "What about the ordnance?" ”

Kuang Zixin replied: "The iron armor is heavy, it is difficult to move, and the sea is humid, so it is easy to rust and rot. I think that paper armor is the best, and leather armor is secondary. In addition, when engaging in melee fighting, long knives are mostly inconvenient, and soldiers can be equipped with additional one-foot-long daggers as weapons for hand-to-hand combat. ”

Lao Jiu was puzzled: "If you fall into the sea wearing paper armor, won't you instantly become a weighing stone and sink to the bottom of the sea?" ”

Kuang Zixin said with a strange expression: "The paper armor is connected with a thin rope, and if it falls into the sea, you can easily take off the paper armor by cutting the thin rope with a dagger." ”

“……”

Lao Jiu's face turned red.

Han Zhen asked, "I plan to build three Shenzhou as warships, do you have any suggestions?" ”

Hearing this, Kuang Zixin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "Shenzhou is naturally excellent as a battleship, a Shenzhou, equipped with three passenger ships, a towing ship, and a fireboat, is an extremely powerful combat force." Sweeping the waters near Jiaozhou Bay is not a problem at all. ”

And voila!

This is the person who does great things, using Shenzhou as a battleship, this courage and heroism make Kuang Zixin admire.

You must know that the cost of a Shenzhou is not cheap, and if you count the ordnance and other equipment on board, the price will not be less than 200,000 yuan.

Once it sinks, 200,000 can be lost.

Han Zhen was stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

One Shenzhou, with five functional ships, isn't this a fucking aircraft carrier strike group?
