Shortly after returning to Chang'an, Li Min received a memorial about the launch of the Haihe Qimen half-craft sea vessel.
This matter is very important, and even to some extent determines the success or failure of Li Zhi's overseas cause. Li Zhi has always been concerned, so he left the center and went to Lingnan and Guangzhou for personal inspection.
It was clear and clear every day, Li Ye stood on the watchtower of the Sailing Camp and looked at it. It can be seen that in the bay of the ship, a large area of ​​sea was vacated, and only three quite tall buildings.
The three buildings are identical in appearance and equipment.
Different from pure wooden floor boats, these three floor boats are built on the basis of spirit wood and stone, and only use hard wood in the secondary parts. In order to eliminate the difference and achieve the effect of camouflage, the entire floor ship is Smeared black, with a metallic-like sheen in the sun.
Each building is divided into three floors, the first floor is the house, the second floor is the flying house, and the top floor is the knight's room. Each floor is equipped with a protective female wall, which can be used to defend local bows, arrows, and stones. There are arrows on the female wall to launch crossbows. In order to prevent enemy fire attacks, the ship was covered with cowhide insulation.
In addition, it is equipment such as rope, reed, sail, reed.
Because it is a test product, there are only three of the first semi-marine vessels launched.
After seeing it in the distance, Liu Zhiyan and Peng Zushan apprenticed and invited Li Zhi to visit the boat. Li Zhi naturally nodded his promise. From the appearance of these three buildings, in addition to the overall color, they are not much different from ordinary warships. The real doorway needs to be seen on board.
"There are three artillery crossbows at the bow and two at the stern. Together with the side chords of the fuyuan crossbow, the arm crossbow, and the angular crossbow, they form a strong crossbow array. Only this part of the power, a warship is equivalent to A closed city. "Peng Zushan walked ahead to show the configuration of the warship for Li Wei.
Ordinary warships cannot house so many weapon crossbow, because they cannot withstand the huge impact when the crossbow is launched at the same time. If they are forcibly equipped, the warship will fall apart first.
"Of course, the most outstanding part of the warship is not these strong crossbows, but the magic array built on the spirit wood and stone."
Peng Zushan came to the deck and pointed to the place where several high-level monks gathered. There was a raised platform there. "With these arrays, we can apply a layer of defense mask to important parts of the warship. Even a real monk, I do n’t want to break through easily. "
Li Yan looked very satisfied and nodded from time to time.
Peng Zushan continued: "As for the thrust of warships, we use a combination of formation and style and paddles, so that we can obtain a more powerful stabilizing force in addition to normal sailing. When the wind is not right or it is in combat, we only need When monks preside over these formations, the warships can get amazing speed. "
Speaking of this, he said with emotion: "But this way, the consumption of spiritual stones will be much, and it will take a lot of monks to sit in town. In the past, such warships were impossible to appear, and there were not so many dynasties. There are not so many resources for practicing monks. "
Li Min didn't take it seriously, "As long as the warship is really strong, this investment is nothing."
What Peng Zushan means is that maintaining such warships is costly and requires talent. However, this is not a big deal for Li Wei, and he is mentally prepared for it.
A half-craft warship, if it runs at full capacity, more than 300 monks need to be trained. They have to control the powerful crossbow of the weapon and maintain the matrix operation. Among them, it hosts various nuclear
The mind-mapping method requires real life.
Before it was changed, the Qipin officer was the level of training. The monk power in this warship was already the power of a fan town!
If it was ten years ago, Mo said that such a half-craft warship could not be built, even if it was built, it would not be used at all. This is the fundamental reason for the emergence of such a powerful warship.
Nowadays, the practice college of Datang has been opened to the state level, and a few wealthy places, such as Gyeonggi and Qingzhou, have practice colleges even in county counties.
The number of monks that the college can train for Datang every year is an extremely scary number.
As for the consumption of resources, Li Yan doesn't care.
Does the aircraft carrier burn money?
At present, the semi-crafted warships and the aircraft carriers are a sense of existence.
With these half-method warships, you can plunder more wealth and control more resources. This is an investment. There is nothing to be distressed about.
"These new warships are very different from ordinary warships. Now that they are in the water, they are about to go overseas, but they have no name yet. They are brave, please give your name to your majesty!" Liu Zhiyan saw that Li Yan was very satisfied with the warship. Make this suggestion.
Seeing everyone coming to see Li Li, his eyes were full of expectations, and he knew that this requirement should be met. At the very least, this was also a hard work to respect them.
He groaned for a while and said slowly: "These semi-crafted warships are responsible for the mission to open up overseas for the dynasty. They need to demonstrate their power on the ocean, clear out all the enemies that hinder Datang's progress, and protect the ocean Territory. In that case, how about calling it a "cruiser"?
"Cruiser?" Everyone chewed the name, only feeling domineering and far-reaching, all of them were a joy, and they salute to Li Yi, "thanks to His Majesty for his name!"
The three cruisers were named Cruiser A, B, and C in turn.
Seeing everyone leaning over and saluting, Li Zhi smiled slightly, but his heart was a bit nasty. However, in any case, the cruisers in this world are not the same as those on the earth, but the same is that their appearance marks the appearance of marine warships and even marine warfare, which has entered a new level.
Next, Li Yan stayed in the Marine Division for a few days, mainly watching cruiser drills to confirm their actual combat effect.
Of course, the power of the cruiser did not disappoint Li Ye, and his ability to consume resources also made Li Ye's smile gradually stiff. He thought he was ready for the cruiser's burnout, but when he really saw it, he knew what it meant to be a gold swallower.
With Datang's current national strength, there is really not much effort to build more cruisers before actually controlling the islands outside the South China Sea and communicating with the Americas to obtain resources there.
In comparison, the consumption of more than 2,000 ordinary soldiers on each cruiser is not worth mentioning.
However, with these three cruisers, Li Yan also had a lot of confidence in the next war against Laos.
"Before sending troops to the Lao Kingdom, the Lingnan Marine Division is bound to rebuild and restructure the three cruisers as necessary. Time is short, and no one is capable of doing such a difficult task. I wonder who your Majesty intends to take on this heavy task?
As the final subject of the cruiser exercise came to an end, Liu Zhiyan curiously asked Li Ye.
The answer to this question doesn't actually
It is not difficult. The most outstanding sailor generals of Datang are nothing but Yang Xingmi and Sun Ru. Not long ago, Yang Xingmi broke down when he practiced, resigned from the position of General of the Jiangnan Navy, and was succeeded by Sun Ru. Now Yang Xingmi is recovering in retreat.
Therefore, there are almost no doubts about people's choices.
"Yang Xingmi is still available. His position in the Jiangnan Marine Normal University can not be ignored." Li Yan responded to Liu Zhiyan in this way. His words showed that Yang Xingmi was the natural candidate for Lingnan Marine Normal University.
However, unlike Sun Ru, in order to successfully transfer to Lingnan Marine, Li Xing's previous series of "God's operations" were all in the eyes. Based on his current practice, it is not difficult to monitor the world with the eyes of the emperor.
However, in actual use, Li Yan could not stare at everyone, just like Yang Fei. After returning to Qingzhou, he thought of this deceased person, and then used the eyes of Emperor Tao to understand the situation of the other party. Therefore, at ordinary times, Li Zhi just chooses some important areas and important targets to pay attention to.
Yang Xingmi was an important general of the dynasty and the most outstanding of the navy divisions. He was also a general of the naval division of the south of the Yangtze River. What he did was impossible to escape the surveillance of Emperor Li Yongdao.
Liu Zhiyan wasn't an outsider either. Li Xun told the other party about Yang Xingmi's recent actions as a joke.
"This uncle's heart is so sinister and no different from a villain. His Majesty knows that his virtues are bad. Why should he use him?" After hearing the story, Liu Zhiyan was a little puzzled about Li Zhi's decision to employ him.
Li Yan smiled disapprovingly, "Only in terms of Sun Ru is indeed inferior to Yang Xingmi. Now that his mind has been thrown away by the other side, it is even more embarrassing.
"The future status of Lingnan sailors will become more and more important. Overseas battles are destined to be a routine occurrence. In an unpredictable environment, facing the outstanding sailor generals in the world, do not need to be more powerful, but use the weak The first will be incompetent and exhaust the three armies, this kind of thing can't appear in the Tang army. "
Liu Zhiyan was speechless.
In this remark by Li Zhi, it is clear that the strong have everything, and the weak have nothing, and morality cannot decide anything at all.
After seeing Liu Zhiyan, he was still a little puzzled. Li Xun continued: "Yang Xingmi can see the future of Lingnan sailor in advance and make plans early. Therefore, he practiced at his own expense, and the plan was successful. The vision and results reflected in it The determination and meticulous thinking are all needed by Lingnan Water Normal University.
"The generals have ambitions, but do n’t worry about it, but they are happy to see it. Those officials who eat and wait for death are useless to the dynasty, only bad things. In short, if you want to build your career, you have to use it. People, just to educate children. "
Having said that, Li Yan will not say more.
Going back to the bottom, Yang Xingmi isn't a big gangster, as long as he doesn't rebel, Li Zhi can let his ambitions unfold. And if he dares to have rebellious thoughts and waits for him to take action, Li Wei will let him know what is violent.
Liu Zhiyan also understood Li Yan's meaning, and nodded, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will keep this secret and will never disclose it."
Li Wei smiled slightly and said nothing. The reason he told Liu Zhiyan about this was that Liu Zhiyan knew more about Yang Xingmi. After all, in the future, the Haihe Yamen and Lingnan Marine Division still had a lot of dealings.
Time flies, years pass, and in a blink of an eye it is June.
