"Elantra! I am a fool. I am only twenty-four years old and haven't lived enough yet?"
"Woo! Woo! I want to go home, I want to go home!"
"Why? Why? Why do those stupid pirates do all kinds of evil? Instead of punishing them, you punish me. Why did you kill me when you just robbed a piece of furniture?"
"Brother, stop shouting. Chicken, duck, fish, beef, mutton, cabbage, and eggs are all available. I have never eaten such a sumptuous lunch in my life. Instead of shouting, it is better to eat and be a You're so full." A veteran in his thirties with a pale face gently patted the shoulder of the young man next to him, picked up the wine glasses and started drinking.
"Okay! Drink and become a drunken man!"
¡In the school grounds filled with tables and chairs, Brandt¡¯s soldiers were laughing and crying as they drank. The soldiers of Elante looked at the school grounds nervously. Since they were not sure what Lin Fenghan meant, the guard officer specially mobilized more than 300 soldiers to maintain order around them.
On the side, the pirates sitting in the cell eating looked at the soldiers on the school field strangely. One of the sixteen or seventeen-year-old little pirates touched his belly in envy and said: "Damn! Why do I eat radish and white rice? They eat such rich food." Lunch, it¡¯s just so unfair.¡±
"Idiot, if you want to eat, I won't stop you." The ferocious-looking pirate in his forties smiled coldly and said viciously.
The young pirate was startled and asked: "What's wrong? Is there any mystery in this? Is the food poisoned?"
"There is absolutely no poison in the food, but they may not be able to see the sun tomorrow after eating. Little Weiduo, did you know? Generally, prisoners must eat a full meal before being beheaded and hanged according to ancient rules. , so that even if they become ghosts, they will not look for trouble with those officials." A loyal middle-aged man in his thirties sighed softly, feeling sorry for the nearly a thousand people on the school field.
"Ah! No way! More than a thousand people, all hacked to death, this Baron Elante must be too vicious!" Serena Weiduo was startled and said in surprise.
"So don't envy them. Work peacefully. Let's find a chance to run out together. If one day they entertain you with delicious food and drinks, then you are not far away from death." The middle-aged man looked at the school field. Nearly a thousand people were crying and laughing, their eyes rolling wildly as they studied the structure of the wooden house.
¡¡¡¡¡¡
"Duke Brant mainly has three combined fleets, two of which are professional battle fleets and one is an ocean-going trade fleet. The three battle fleets have a total of 1 super large galley and 7 large three-masted sailing ships. , 12 armed clippers, 14 medium-sized galleys, 31 light dhows, a total of more than 60 sharp-bottomed ocean-going fleets. In addition, Duke Brant also has nearly a hundred inland fleets of various sizes. These flat-bottomed boats are in the offshore and inland waters. They can all be used as combat units, but they can't go to the ocean. Their professional sailors and navy total more than 4,000 people. All ships are counted, and the fleet strength is nearly ten times ours." Bonos analyzed Lin Fenghan in detail arrive.
"What? 160 ships, 4,000 professional sailors. God, how could he be so powerful? It's beyond my expectation." Lin Fenghan stood up in shock and walked around the desk.
"By the way, what are the differences between pointy-bottomed boats and flat-bottomed boats? Why can pointy-bottomed boats sail across the ocean, but flat-bottomed boats can't? Can their flat-bottomed boat fleet cross the sea to attack us?" Lin Fenghan quickly opened Dambree Looking at the map of the Si Kingdom, looking at the gap between the territories of the two sides, he asked seriously.
"A pointed-bottomed ship has a very deep draft, while a flat-bottomed ship is very shallow. The front, rear, and side wings of the pointed-bottomed ship are all specially processed. The sealed cabin is very well sealed. There are cargoes placed on the bottom of the ship. Stones increase the weight and draft area to increase stability. Pointed-bottomed boats have a triangular shape and are very stable. In terms of body structure, they are more stable than flat-bottomed boats that are almost square. Therefore, pointed-bottomed boats are very resistant to wind and waves. Flat-bottomed boats are not good and are easy to disintegrate in the ocean. Flat-bottomed boats can be used as In offshore and inland waters, as cargo ships and warships, it will be a tragedy once they go to sea." Ponos explained with detailed gestures.
"Baron, our territory is 15 kilometers to 25 kilometers away from the Duke of Brant's territory in the southern continent. If the weather is clear and there are no sea winds, tsunamis, or tornadoes, then there is a high possibility that Duke Brant's flat-bottomed boat will cross the strait and head here. To attack, you must know that more than a hundred years ago, your ancestors also used flat-bottomed boats to transport a large number of soldiers before conquering this island with a large number of pirates." Watching Lin Fenghan listen carefully, Bonos pointed at the map with his hand and said seriously said.
"Hey! Are you saying that it's not just Duke Brant's 60 ocean-going fleets that can attack us now? Even his offshore fleets may also threaten us?"
"Yes"?! "
"Very good then, Bonus and your brother Bonodong, do you think we should give priority to developing the ocean fleet now?" Lin Fenghan pointed next to Bonos, who looked very similar to him, but looked younger. Bono asked.
"Baron, I don't think the priority is to develop the navy, but to develop the navy with all our strength during the current period. Our Elante Islands are located in the East China Sea of ??the Kingdom, far away from the mainland. As long as we develop a strong navy, when Duke Brant comes again, we only need to stop or even stop him at sea. Defeat them, then they will completely give up their plans for the Elant territory. If they only defeat Duke Brant on land, then he will never give up. With his fleet and huge territory population resources, he is enough to transport soldiers again and again. The constant war is enough to bring us down." Bonodong looked into Lin Fenghan's eyes seriously and said wisely.
"Well! What you said is so good and hits the nail on the head! My previous idea was to develop the navy and the army at the same time. Now after listening to what you said, I realize that I was sacrificing the basics and seeking the last. The timing of development was wrong! Bono Dong, your strategic talent is really good. From now on, I will appoint you as Navy Fleet Admiral and Headquarters Staff to command the navy together with your brother." Lin Fenghan happily patted Bono Dong's shoulder and said excitedly.
"Baron, we now have a total of 11 light triangular sailing ships, 5 medium-sized platoon galleys, 4 armed two-sailed galleys, 2 heavy platoon galleys, and 1 giant three-decker galley. Such fleets are formed separately. The strength of a fleet is not inferior to any of Brant's ocean fleets, but the problem is the professional sailors. There are too few sailors, only more than 300 people, and 23 ships are enough to carry 10,000 people, and can sustain 3,000 people for sailing and fighting for 2 months. No problem, especially our large flagship Sea Blue is enough to carry more than 1,000 sailors. At present, the navy fleet has no problem carrying the entire territorial army. My suggestion is to get rid of the old, weak and disabled, let all territorial troops join the naval training, and put them on the training ground Naval warfare and land warfare are two-way combat arms." Bonodong analyzed seriously.
"Okay!" Lin Fenghan pounded the table excitedly and shouted: "Just as I want, I am preparing to train the navy to fight against pirates to earn money, personnel and ships. You can go back to train the navy now, and set up Elant Naval Officers The academy must train excellent naval officers, and I will come to your place in the afternoon."
Bonus and Bonodong looked at each other excitedly and said excitedly: "Yes!"
"Brother, thank you so much. My father's wish to revitalize the navy is about to come true."
"Brother, we must work hard! Try to gain more trust from Yi Liuyun. I admire this young man very much. I admire his ambition very much, although it is impossible to unify the continent with an area of ??more than 20 million square kilometers. , but I think his idea of ??equality for everyone is very likely to be realized, and I decided to support him wholeheartedly."
"Everyone is equal, haha, brother, do you think the nobles of this world will allow this kind of thinking to appear? Do what we can do well and fulfill my father's last wish. This is my biggest goal." Bono Brothers Si and Bonodong walked toward the naval camp while chatting and laughing.
