Lu Su asked Tai Shici and others to go eastward after the navy was formed, not to conquer anything. There was nothing to conquer on the Japanese island in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. To be precise, they were not even enemies. Of course, there were shallow or even open-pit gold mines. Silver mines are really good things. After all, according to the technical level of this period, the difficulty of mining is more important than the amount of reserves. Letting Taishi Ci go eastward is more of a test of another mode, which is to use another mode when our naval combat capabilities are far inferior to the opponent's, which is the so-called long-distance detour to land on 6. Of course, this method has great requirements on the materials that can be carried. If you want to transport troops, the demand for materials will increase greatly. More importantly, if the cavalry is transported as Li You thinks, the demand for materials will increase greatly. Definitely no joke. When Li You and Lu Su were talking about this matter, Cai Mao was rushing to Donglai with all his troops and Tai Shici. It can be said that this is one of the few times when Cai Mao was satisfied since he left Jingxiang. Huang Chengyan had already hinted to him that he would be able to become deputy commander immediately after arriving, and now Cai Mao was really shocked when he saw 6 large ships parked at Donglai Port. "There is such a huge ship. The shipbuilding technology of the six companies is really unparalleled in the world." Cai Hao looked at the big ship parked in the port. Other sixth-generation ships that were already large enough stopped in front of this big ship and instantly seemed to change. Became a son. "This is the seventh-generation ship of our army, and it was also the flagship originally prepared for General Gan. Now we will receive it on your behalf." Taishi Ci looked at this big ship and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If there had been such a big ship, even if he had encountered If you defeat the Kushan Navy, you won't be in this situation. You can escape even if you can't defeat it. ¡¾Xingba, I will definitely avenge you. ] Taishi Ci stared at the flagship and took a deep breath, once again strengthening his determination. "Sneeze!" Gan Ning rubbed his nose and began to instruct his Kushan navy to practice sharp turns. After such a long period of training, Gan Ning finally got to the point of practical operation. Of course, these technical skills Things, he is quite slippery when it comes to playing. Perhaps because he is gifted with this skill, Gan Ning's control over water flow has surpassed Meng Combo's estimation. Gan Ning can master almost all tactical skills that require water flow control very well, even to the point where he is better than his master. situation. ¡¾Ah ah ah, if I study for another month, I will be able to learn all these. I feel that the more I learn, the easier it will become. I am indeed a genius. ] Gan Ning was still practicing silent chanting, but his heart kept screaming. He was deeply in awe of his talent. However, a month later, after Gan Ning learned all the techniques related to water flow, Mengkangbu began to teach other categories. Only then did Gan Ning realize that he had only learned one category, while Kushan actually had many different categories in naval operations. kind. "Well, this is the seventh-generation ship manufactured by our six companies. Of course, this ship is a deleted version. Many places were forced to make modifications because the conditions could not be met." Lu Jun said with a tangled look. The ship burned The money burned made him heartbroken. "This is actually an abridged version?" Cai Hao said in amazement. "Well, this is indeed an abridged version, but don't underestimate it. Even if it is an abridged version, it is still the strongest battleship of the year. As long as the level is similar, it is definitely enough to defeat ten against one." Lu Jun said with a proud look on his face. , and then inform Cai Hao of various parameters. "Twenty-five feet long, ten feet wide, three-and-a-half-story structure, six masts, nine sails, carrying three thousand people, fully sealed and waterproof structure. This is actually an abridged version. If you didn't falsify these data, this There is no problem if one ship is against ten." Cai Mao said in disbelief. As a navy general, he had never seen a ship stronger than this. "It's a pity that it's a new ship. Otherwise, it would have more advantages." Cai Mao was shocked at first, and then suppressed Lu Jun. As a habitual behavior of navy commanders, no matter how good the shipbuilder is, To knock one or two. "It has been almost two years since this ship was manufactured. All the materials were intensively cured before being manufactured. After the entire warship was completed a year ago, it was uniformly cured, and it was completely cured. The structure is warm and nourishing." Lu Jun said with a proud face, this is a labor of love, although he was punished by his father for burning money. "Moreover, we have ordered a large number of warm and well-maintained trees from Jizhou and Youzhou, and have a strategic reserve that is enough to build a thousand warships. We can use them at any time whenever necessary, so the problem of temperature and maintenance is No need to worry," Lu Jun said with a hint of pride. After all, the 6 shipyards are considered official shipyards. Although they are managed by 6 companies, in fact, as early as when 6 companies came to Donglai to build the shipyard, Chen Xi's bank injected large-scale capital into them. At that time, 6 companies had just left Lujiang. Road, there was not much money at all, and the reason why the site could be built immediately was because there was official support behind it. Of course, the last six families sold off their properties in Lujiang and sold them cheaply. Other families in Jiangdong took over. The six families collected more than one billion in cash and left. Of course, now the billions in cash are also available to the public. Lu Jun was almost defeated. As for the so-called strategic reserves after warming up that a thousand warships need, this was actually done by Chen Xi. After the pacification of Jizhou, Chen Xi put it online when he was looking for jobs for the refugees in Jizhou. Anyway, once the reserves are made, they will be used sooner or later when we get out of the Central Plains. Cutting down trees and trimming them can be regarded as a way to work hard, so that the refugees have work to do and don't cause social problems. Chen Xi is still very good at it. . Maybe a thousand warships would take more than ten years to be built by each of the six families, but if the technology is spread out and given to the large and small shipyards of Jiangdong families, and the wood is openly supplied, Kushan can be bigger A thousand warships can be destroyed in half a year, even the Han Dynasty can do it. When the battleship sea explodes, Zhou Yu and Jiangdong's soldiers are thrown into it, and with practice and practice, the Han Empire will be able to create a navy that looks as terrifying as Kushan. I really thought that Chen Xi would be defeated by just hundreds of thousands of Kushans. The navy is scared, what nonsense. Long before the battleship sea in Guishang appeared, Chen Xi had already made strategic reserves in advance. At most, he had not yet issued an official document and put it online. The materials needed for a mere thousand battleships were not a problem at all. "A thousand ships?" Cai Mao's voice raised an octave, "Can the six of you families use so many? It's a huge problem to store so much wood and just maintain it." "Don't worry, don't worry, these are not problems, we are professional shipbuilders ." Lu Jun said with a hint of pride. Anyway, since he built the seventh-generation warship, he stood next to this warship and said that he was a professional, and others really had nothing to say. Even his father, Lu Kang, was deeply dissatisfied with him for spending most of the Lu family's property, but he was only dissatisfied for the sake of the battleship, instead of thinking that he was ruining the family, he thought that Lu Jun was very valuable. Maybe it will go down in history. "Yes, you must have your own plans." Cai Hao thought for a while and said, "But is your battleship really a deleted version?" "Indeed, we have deleted a lot of the armor of this battleship. A lot has been cut out in terms of the driver, and naturally the size has also been reduced a lot. It was originally 36 feet, which is a pity," Lu Jun said somewhat helplessly. Of course, there is another problem here, which is that the technology is not up to standard. Although it seems that the technology has been reached now, there is not enough money. Lu Jun is deeply dissatisfied. Of course, the old man from the Lu family has severely stopped Lu Jun from investing money in research without a bottom line. Behavior. If it weren't for the fact that there were only three or four big and small kittens left in the Lu family, and apart from Lu Kang, who was already too old, Lu Jun was already the only adult in the Lu family, otherwise the things Lu Jun was doing without regard for the family would have been long ago. Gonna get beat up. "The original plan was to have an all-steel structure. Of course, even the next generation may not be able to meet this condition, so wrapping it with steel or adding steel is a relatively reliable method." Lu Jun saw the look in the other person's eyes, so he smiled and gave it to the two of them. explained. "It goes without saying about the size. Because it is in the sea, it doesn't matter how big the ship is. As for the power, Chen Hou originally said that he solved it himself, but now it is said that he messed it up." Lu Jun shrugged. He said with a shrug. "In short, that's all. The ship is handed over to you. I have received the money. From now on, this will be your warship. I also asked someone to add the name, and it will be called Xingba." Lu Jun finally explained. , and left. Taishi Ci looked at the three huge characters on the battleship and couldn't help but feel sad. But then Taishi Ci strengthened his determination. Everything he lost at that time would one day be returned to Guishuang to worship Gan Ning's spirit in heaven. "Let's get on the boat." Taishi Ci turned to Cai Mao and said, "According to the request of Governor Lu, we will go to the east for training together." Soon after Taishi Ci and Cai Mao boarded the boat, Xu Sheng and others led only the remaining The five sixth-generation ships came together. It was not that Chen Xi was unwilling to equip Taishi Ci and others with more warships, but there were only so many people left in the navy at present. "Wen Xiang, let me introduce to you. This is General Cai Degui. How are you going to Danyang?" Taishi Ci and others asked after they transferred Xu Sheng to the flagship. Xu Sheng and Cai Mao introduced each other with salutes, and the other captains also bowed and saluted. "About three thousand have been recruited, but that may not be possible in the future. Jiangdong is watching too closely. This is Zhou Gongjin. Sun Bofu and others are not in Jiangdong. Otherwise, I am afraid something will happen as soon as I recruit troops." Xu Sheng sighed and said. "Fortunately, if he hadn't been around, I wouldn't have dared to do this. At least once the soldiers from Jiangnan were recruited, they wouldn't faint when they got on the ship. After all, Danyang is rich in brave soldiers. After all, Danyang is rich in brave soldiers.It can be used with some practice, which saves us trouble. "Tai Shi Ci said helplessly.
