It is understandable that Han Huanzhang wanted to get into the speedboat immediately and take a closer look to satisfy his curiosity. However, they were still on their way back, and two speedboats were escorting one behind the other. It was impossible for Artist Han to get his wish at this time, otherwise the entire fleet would have to anchor and stop. Liu Wenbin spent a lot of time talking. , only then did Han Huanzhang give up his mind.
So, the two of them sat on the front deck, admiring the gorgeous sunset on the horizon, while chatting about the origin of Liu Wenbin¡¯s reinforcements.
It¡¯s already November, and the weather is already very cold. The sea breeze is blowing, ruthlessly taking away your heat, leaving you with waves of chills. However, Artist Han is a guy who loves to pretend, so Liu Wenbin can only accompany him to blow the cold wind on the deck.
All right! Speaking of his super fleet suddenly falling from the sky at Han Huanzhang's critical moment, and then turning the tide, well, you can say that! Liu Wenbin no longer felt cold, but a little excited.
By the way, the time traveler didn¡¯t have any big plans for Japan at the beginning. Mao Geng himself, influenced by the thinking of Taizong of later dynasties, has always adhered to Tao Guang's established strategy of concealing himself and pursuing development. However, since Long Jiu proposed the Sado plan, the situation began to change. With the original plan of Sado After the version, there was an upgraded version of Ma Fen. The changes here can be said to be full of drama.
The Long version that was first proposed seemed to have been put forward by Long Jiu on a whim because of the troubles caused by the Fenghua case. The original idea was to divert disaster to the east, and then more and more things were stuffed into it. , carrying more and more things, the single goal turned into multiple goals, and then became an expansion plan for the time traveler to seize Sado Island, and was even unanimously praised by the board of directors of the time traveler headed by Mao Geng. It is worth mentioning that this kind of matter does not seem to belong to the scope of democratic decision-making by time travellers. The board of directors can decide it. Ma Fen and Liu Wenbin had already arrived at Sakhalin Island at that time. There is no need for Ma Fen and Liu to raise their hands for this kind of matter. To vote, it was naturally impossible to hold a remote meeting using the method of flying pigeons to pass letters, so the original version of the plan born out of Long Jiu came out. Then, as you know, when Long Jiu excitedly went to Sakhalin Island to explain the plan, the so-called solicitation of opinions at that time was just another way of conveying instructions, but Ma Fen refused to follow it blindly and instead After putting forward suggestions for correction, the version was updated and upgraded to the Ma's upgraded version, and the "third-party" pirate drama made its grand debut.
When Ma Fen proposed the amendment, Liu Wenbin happened to be on a trial voyage to the Thousand Islands and was unable to hear about it. When Liu Wenbin learned about the first version of the plan and Ma Fen's upgraded version, it was already October, but the location was on Xiayi Island. Hokkaido.
Zhao Luan finally led a large fleet to Xiayi Island in early October, and Mao Geng also arrived. The fellow travelers included Gu Yongqiang, Yu Yunlu and Wu Feiyuan. As for why the two women wanted to join in the fun, the reason was very strong. , due to reasons of vulgarity and feudalism¡¯s crazy counterattack against the ¡°thin, exposed, transparent¡± fashion trend, the two women felt that they could not stay in Kaohsiung.
Zhao Jue's big move was fully supported by Han Chanzhou. Han Chanzhou even sent him off in person, all the way to Xiayi Island. It is said that Xiayi Island also has an important base for Taiwan-Song sea trade. Han Chanzhou came here to see Zhao Juan off. Secondly, I also feel that I should come and inspect it myself to check on the work and so on.
It should be noted that Han Huanzhang changed his career to become a pirate, and of course he had the tacit approval of the upper echelons of time travellers. For this reason, Mao Geng also supported two hybrid ships. After the high-profile opening of "Pirates", Han Huanzhang, who became a monk halfway, has continued to improve his performance, which is very eye-catching. Liu Wenbin, an angry young man of later generations, couldn't sit still after hearing the news. He immediately applied to Mao Geng to organize a fleet to participate in the operation. However, it was different from Han Huanzhang's pirate operation. Liu Wenbin set the target of robbery. on Japanese ships.
Liu Wenbin believed that a qualified pirate should target the other party's merchant ship. The matter of catching young men was outside the scope of professionalism. However, Han Huanzhang was not a professional at all. He did not have the professional qualities at all, which meant that he was suitable for an extensive type like catching young men. Therefore, the task of robbing Japanese ships fell on me, Liu Wenbin, without hesitation. Even if the merchant ship cannot be robbed, it is always good to rob a Japanese ship. One thing to note here is that Han Zhouzhou has been tirelessly pursuing maritime transport capacity. As long as it is a ship, Han Zhouzhou can transport it. If it cannot transport cement, it can always transport coal. Han Zhouzhou is currently busy with shipping business. After Mao Geng reminded it, it is now more I started outsourcing business, renting ships, collecting rent, and issuing waybills. There was a lot of work, so I didn¡¯t mind what kind of ship it was, as long as it was a ship. Even if it was a Japanese ship that was not popular, it would be within the scope of Han Zhouzhou. , of course, if the ship and sailors can be included, Han Yuzhou will give a good price.
Of course, Han Yuzhou himself is a hawk and one of the expansionists of the Song Dynasty. His true history is that he is a hawk.Historically, he was the mastermind of the Kaixi Iron-blooded Northern Expedition. Now that he heard that it was to rob the Japanese, he couldn't come forward. Of course, the peace-loving Song Dynasty court would not approve it. It happened that someone named a third party came forward. How dare he! In this way, Liu Wenbin also received the support of Han Yuzhou's Fubo. Of course, the ship was not called Fubo before, but was called "Dayu". After being lent to Liu Wenbin, it was renamed Fubo.
The Feilang has long been equipped with Liu's powerful meteor cannon. The Feilang is Liu Wenbin's main ship for long-distance expeditions, so of course it must have strong protection. As for the powerful meteor cannon, if you must describe it accurately, it is actually an 80mm iron pipe, similar to the pipe of a recoilless rifle, so you can think of it. Regarding its ammunition, the second half of the paper-cased meteor bomb is the propelling charge, and the first half is the combat charge. It¡¯s that simple. In fact, it is not essentially different from large fireworks. The powerful meteor cannon was easily installed on the Fubo, making the Fubo, like the Feilang, possess incredible firearms strike capabilities in this time and space.
Furthermore, Liu Wenbin was extremely lucky, because it happened that the two brand-new lightning speedboats brought by Mao Geng from the Kaohsiung Special Administrative Region needed to be tested in actual combat, so Liu Wenbin had two more super airships under his command.
Now that he had a good hand, Liu Wenbin was full of courage, so he chose the east coast of Japan, near Kyoto, for his first operation. The chance of catching Japanese merchant ships was higher here, and the ship's condition would be better. As a result By chance, Han Huanzhang happened to be besieged. At that time, I saw a large number of Japanese ships in the distance, and there were flames shooting into the sky. Something was wrong! To be cautious, Liu Wenbin sent two speedboats out for reconnaissance, and then came the scene where Han Huanzhang saw the speedboats rushing out.
This is really the right time.
As for the idea of ??obtaining sea control in Japanese waters, Liu Wenbin had never raised it in front of anyone before. Maybe he had such an idea vaguely, but Liu Wenbin was not so courageous at the beginning. It was only after this naval battle that Liu Wenbin had confidence, so he came up with the idea of ??completely overpowering Japan's coastal defense and gaining sea control.
"So that's it! I thought you came up with a clever trick to seize control of the sea from the beginning!"
"No way! I only have four ships under my command. How dare I be arrogant from the beginning? No matter how arrogant you are, you have to weigh your own weight, right! Without this battle, I really dare not say that I can seize control of the sea easily. Japan After all, it is an island country. I dare not underestimate its naval combat potential before competing against it. But, hum! It¡¯s different now. I can responsibly say that with my fleet here, Japan¡¯s coastal defense is Scum, so the control of the sea must be won, and it can definitely be won."
"Damn! Ma Fen's upgraded version has bg, I didn't notice it, it turns out you didn't notice it at first either. There is a saying that is right, life is a process of trial and error, looking at it now, the cheating strategy is also a trial and error process In the process, I, Han Huanzhang, was the pawn of trial and error. The dead people and the lost ship were the price of trial and error. Fortunately, in the end, through trial and error, you found the right path. Haha! This is how we have to seize first. The ultimate upgraded version of sea control. Haha, the world is so interesting, so interesting!" At the end of the sentence, Han Huanzhang smiled bitterly, and there was an indescribable bitterness in his words.
As night fell, when six of his own ships returned to Hachijo Island along with the six captured Japanese ships, Ma Fen learned that the naval battle was first defeated and then won. After coming to the conclusion that he could easily gain control of the sea, Ma Fen took out two bottles of wine, took Liu and Han with him, and let go of the wine, taking a swig.
Being able to gain control of the sea is of course a great thing, and Ma Fen naturally fully supports it. The price paid is a bit heavy, but it is still worth it. Trial and error will have a price. Taizu said, if there is struggle, there will be sacrifice.
The three people were full of confidence at this moment. At this moment, the three men were full of pride and arrogance. The wine was dry and they drank the two bottles of wine without knowing it. They only suffered from Han Huanzhang, and finally became a pile of drunken mud. .
The next day, when Han Huanzhang woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning. The first thing Han Huanzhang remembered was that the speedboat was struck by lightning. Damn it! He wouldn't drive away so quickly, then he wouldn't be able to see it.
Fortunately, Liu Wenbin kept his promise and did not rush to rob the Japanese ship. Han Huanzhang was able to board the Lei 1 speedboat for a visit as he wished.
Han Huanzhang and Ma Fen hunched over, touching left and right in the speedboat cabin, while Liu Wenbin introduced the various configurations and functions of the speedboat in detail:
"This speedboat is equipped with two gas hot-bulb engines, equipped with compressed gas tanks and charcoal gas generators. It has a maximum speed of 21 knots and a cruising range of 700 kilometers. The cruising range is a bit short, but there is a solution to saving charcoal, which is to let Fu Bo Hao FeiWith the wave number towing it, the range matches. hehe! "
The maximum speed of a sailboat in these days is 9 knots. The maximum speed of a clipper ship is only 16 or 16 knots. The speed of 21 knots can be called a "flying" speed. In terms of speed, it is enough to crush any ship. Opponent, ahem, how lucky is the title of speedboat!
"The left and right sides are equipped with pole mine push devices, and use the space of the two monolithic ships to store mines. On the left side are all small mines, used to bomb small boats. The poles are designed to be six meters long. , an explosion on the water surface six meters away will not cause much damage to the boat, and the design is very safe. This is the era of wooden ships, and this small mine is enough to deal with small boats under fifty tons. To deal with larger ships, use the right side The power mine is a medium-sized mine with a streamlined shape. The upper part is in the shape of a fish and the lower part is cylindrical. The center of gravity is in the lower part, so what you see is the back of a fish on the water. Floating and sinking, this thing uses gunpowder to propel it. The propulsion distance is limited, which is about five meters. The first step is to push it out with a pole, and then let it rush towards the target under the propulsion of gunpowder. Considering that the speedboat can give this kind of power to the mine With a certain initial speed, it can attack targets as far as fifteen meters. Of course, the best attack distance is still within 12 meters, which is more reliable. If a wooden ship of one or two hundred tons is hit by such a medium-sized mine, it will not If you are blown into pieces of wood, you will at least be paralyzed. You must know that pole mines can kill even armored ships. Water is not like air. Water is incompressible. The power of explosions in water is not the same as that in air. The power of the explosion is much more terrifying¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡±
"Haha, I understand this, we understand it, there is no need for popular science." Ma Fen admitted that at least from the design point of view, a lot of thought was put into this speedboat.
"Looking at the torpedoes, this boat is equipped with six torpedoes. When launching, the suspended V-shaped groove in the middle opens. Due to the action of gravity, the torpedoes quickly slide to the water below the deck. At this time, the compressed air valve has been opened, and the spinning propeller pushes the torpedoes. It passes through the parallel space between the two monolithic ships, rushes towards the target, and then explodes with a 'boom'. This torpedo has a maximum range of 60 meters and is launched within 40 meters, so the hit rate is more guaranteed. When designing We also considered using the muzzle speed of the speedboat, but it should not exceed 15 knots when launching torpedoes, otherwise the waves will be too large, which will affect the torpedo launch. Overall, this torpedo is very good, the only shortcoming is that the range of the torpedo is still short It would be nice if it was further away." When Liu Wenbin said this, he stroked Torpedo's back as if he were stroking his own child, his eyes full of doting.
"Enough, enough! The range of the first white-headed torpedo in history is only 200 meters, and it doesn't require too much charge to hit a wooden boat. I think it is more reliable to launch it closer to the basket." Ma Fen felt that attacking from the basket It's always more certain than a long three-point shot.
"Yes! Yes! It's not necessary to blow the planks into pieces. The effect would be too terrifying and frighten the fish in the sea. Let's use a gentler charge. Anyway, a wooden ship in this era is bound to be hit by a torpedo. Scrapped, the Japanese ships are even more useless. I saw it with my own eyes yesterday. Your torpedo will almost blow up other people's wood into powder. Haha, it is a waste to pack too much gunpowder. It is better to save a little more powder! I think Ma Fen¡¯s suggestion is good.¡±
Ma Fen and Han Huanzhang were experienced. Although the speedboat was small, it was quite well-equipped. It had periscopes, observation holes, etc., as well as meteor cannons. In addition to conventional bombs, the meteor cannon was also equipped with smoke bombs. In addition, it also designed Shotgun firing hole. As for the entire speedboat being covered with a layer of copper, it can be said that Chief Mao really spent a lot of money on it.
After visiting the speedboat, Han Huanzhang¡¯s last doubts were dispelled. This is an invincible existence, and he can abuse the Japanese at will.
"Wen Bin, now that you are the screenwriter, according to the upgraded version, how should the next plot unfold?" Han Huanzhang asked in a teasing tone.
"It's very simple! King Yelu's beloved concubine Monroe was killed at sea by the Japanese. King Yelu vowed to avenge his beloved concubine, so he mobilized a magical fleet of warships to carry out unrestricted ship hunting battles along the coast of Japan. All Japanese ships will be robbed and blown up. What do you think of this plot design?"
"Well, not bad! However, the question is how did a ruined prince of the Liao Kingdom get such magical warships?" Han Huanzhang felt that the only thing about the plot was that this aspect was a bit ridiculous, but if it had to be this way, I guess the Japanese didn't A place for comments.
"I stole it! Anyway, it was reported in the newspaper some time ago that King Yelu robbed whomever he saw. King Yelu robbed the Song Dynasty here and there. It is not unusual to grab a few ships of the Song Dynasty!" Ma Fen also joined in the fun! .
"How dare you! I'm playing a terrorist!" Han Huanzhang thought it would be interesting to play a negative role in the 12th century. For the sake of art, actors in the 21st century can adapt to the unspoken rules and sacrifice appearance. For the sake of art?As well as the pursuit of something higher than art, it is certainly worthwhile to play the virtual King Yelu.
"Of course King Yelu is a terrorist. He robs everywhere and robs indiscriminately. He is not a terrorist! Let's go a little further and learn from the American imperialists' tactics of labeling. King Yelu is a Khitan Zionist. Khitan is a Zionist. The possibility exists that the nationalists may want to restore the country in Japan. In addition, the concubine was murdered, so they intensified their terrorist attacks in Japan. This is enough to explain King Yelu's behavior. Unfortunately, the Japanese want to fight against terrorism. , I guess there is no hope. Haha!" Liu Wenbin's mouth was really damaging.
