Chapter 1869 Xingba
Lu Su asked Taishi Ci and his team to travel east after the formation of the naval army, not to conquer anything. There was nothing to conquer in the Japanese island in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. To be precise, even the enemy was not considered an enemy. Of course, the shallow or even open-pit gold and silver mines were real good things. After all, in terms of the technical level of this period, the difficulty of mining was more important than the quantity of ownership.
Let Taishi Ci go east more to test another mode, that is, when our naval combat capabilities are far inferior to those of the other party, we switch to another mode, which is the so-called long-distance detour to board 6 mode.
Of course, this method has great requirements for the materials that can be carried. If you want to transport troops, the demand for materials will increase greatly. More importantly, if you really transport cavalry as Li You thought, the demand for materials is definitely not a joke.
When Li You and Lu Su talked about this, Cai Mao was rushing to Donglai with Taishi Ci with all his strength. It can be said that it is the few times that Cai Mao has been proud of since he left Jingxiang.
Huang Chengyan had already hinted that he would become the deputy commander immediately after he came, and now Cai Mao was really shocked to see the six large ships parked at Donglai Port.
"There are such huge ships, and the six shipbuilding technologies are truly unparalleled in the world." Cai Mao looked at the big ship parked in the port, and the other sixth-generation ships that were originally large enough were parked in front of this big ship and instantly became sons.
"This is our seventh-generation ship, and it is also the flagship originally prepared for General Gan. Now we will receive it on our behalf." Taishi Ci looked at this big ship and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If there was such a big ship, even if it encountered the Kushan Navy, it would not have fallen to this point and could have escaped if it could not be defeated.
[Xingba, I will definitely avenge you.] Taishici stared at this flagship and took a deep breath, strengthening his determination once again.
"Ah snee!" Gan Ning rubbed his nose and began to direct the Kushan navy under his command to practice sharp turns. After so long training, Gan Ning finally reached the level of practical exercise. Of course, he was still very skillful to play with these skills.
Perhaps because he is talented, Gan Ning's control of water flow now is beyond Meng Kangbu's estimate. Gan Ning can master almost all the tactical skills that require water flow control, and even reach the point where he is better than his superiors.
[Ahhh, I will learn all this in another month. I feel that the more I learn, the easier it is. I am indeed a genius.] Gan Ning is still practicing keeping accustomed to his mouth, but he keeps screaming in his heart. He is deeply respectful of his talent.
However, after Gan Ning learned all the skills related to water flow a month later, Meng Kangbu began to teach other categories. Only then did Gan Ning realize that he only learned one category, and Kushan actually divided it into many major categories in naval combat.
"Well, this is the seventh-generation ship made by our 6 companies. Of course, this ship is considered a deleted version. Many places are forced to make modifications because the conditions cannot be met." 6 Jun said with a confusion. The ship burned money and made him feel heartbroken.
"Is this actually a deleted version?" Cai Mao said in great surprise.
"Well, this is indeed a deleted version, but don't underestimate it. Even if it is a deleted version, it is also the strongest warship of that year. As long as the level is not much different, it is definitely enough to fight ten." 6 Jun said proudly, and then informed Cai Mao of all aspects of the parameters.
"Twenty-five zhang long, ten zhang wide, three and a half-structure, six masts, nine sails, three thousand people, fully sealed and waterproof structure, this is actually a deleted version. If you have not faked these data, there is no problem with this ship fighting against ten." Cai Mao said incredible. As a navy general, he had never seen a stronger ship than this.
"It's a pity that it's a new ship, otherwise it would have a better advantage." Cai Mao was shocked first, and then suppressed Liu Jun. As a habitual behavior of naval command, no matter how good the shipbuilding is, it will be a hit.
"This ship has been manufactured for almost two years. Before the manufacturing process, all the materials were effectively warmed up. After the entire warship was completed a year ago, it was uniformly warmed up, and it was a full structure warmed up." 6 Jun said proudly. This was a work of hard work, although he had been packed up by his father because of his money.
"Also, we have customized a large number of warm-raising trees from Jizhou and Youzhou, and have made strategic reserves that are enough to make 1,000 warships. They can be called at any time as long as they are necessary, so there is no need to worry about warm-raising issues." 6 Jun said proudly.
After all, the six shipyards are considered official shipyards. Although they are managed by six, in fact, when the six companies came to Donglai to build the shipyard, Chen Xi's money shop injected large-scale capital into it. At that time, the six companies had just run away from Lujiang and didn't have much money at all. The reason why they could build the site immediately was because the official support was later.
Of course, the next six companies will sell their own properties in Lujiang, and those who should sell them at a low price. Other families in Jiangdong took over, and the six companies will get out after more than one billion in cash. Of course, the more than one billion in cash now has almost lost 6 Jun.
As for the so-called strategic reserves for warming and maintenance required for a thousand warships, this was actually done by Chen Xi. This was when Chen Xi slapped his head and went online after Pingjizhou when Chen Xi found a job for those refugees in Jizhou.
Anyway, after the reserves are made, you can use it sooner or later when you attack the Central Plains, cutting trees, and leveling them. This is also a way to work hard to make refugees work and not cause social problems. Chen Xi is still very good at it.
Maybe it would take more than ten years for 6 warships to be built by six people, but if the technology is spread out and one serving of all shipyards of all families in Jiangdong is given to each of the big and small ships, and the supply of these wood is open, Kushan can explode 1,000 warships in half a year, and the Han Dynasty can do it too.
When the warship sea bursts out, Zhou Yu and Jiangdong's soldiers will be wiped out and practiced. The Han Empire will be able to create a navy that looks as terrible as the Kushans. I really think Chen Xi will be scared by the only hundreds of thousands of Kushans navy. It's nonsense.
Before the Kushan warship sea appeared, Chen Xi had already made strategic reserves first, and at most he did not make any official documents to make it clear. The materials needed for a mere thousand warships were not a problem at all.
"One thousand ships?" Cai Mao's voice increased octave, "Can your 6 families use so much? It's a huge problem to reserve so much wood and maintain it."
"Don't worry, don't worry, these are not problems. We are professional shipbuilding." 6 Jun said proudly. Anyway, since he built the seventh generation ship, he stood next to the warship and said that he was professional, and there was nothing else to say about others.
Even if he was deeply dissatisfied with spending most of the 6 properties in his father, he was just dissatisfied with the face of this warship, and did not escalate that he was destroying the sect. Instead, he thought that 6 Jun was likely to be famous in history.
"Yes, you must have your own plans." Cai Mao thought for a while and said, "But is your warship really a deleted version?"
"That's true. We have deleted a lot of this warship on the armor and a lot of drives, and naturally they have also reduced a lot of size. It was originally thirty-six feet, but it was a pity." 6 Jun said helplessly.
Of course, there is another problem here that the technology is not up to date. Although it seems that the technology has been achieved, there is not enough money. 6 Jun expressed his deep consent. Of course, the old masters of the six families have severely stopped 6 Jun's behavior of investing money without bottom line research.
If it weren't for the fact that only three or four cats were left in the 6 families, and apart from the over-aged 6 Kang, 6 Jun would have been the only adult in the 6 families. Otherwise, the 6 Jun would have been beaten up long ago if he did something that ignored the family.
"The original plan was an all-steel structure, but of course, even the next generation would probably not be able to achieve this condition, so Baosteel or adding steel is a relatively reliable way." Seeing the other party's eyes, 6 Jun explained to the two with a smile.
"No need to mention the size of this, because it is in the sea, so the ship is naturally bigger. As for the power, Chen Hou said that he solved it himself, but now it is said that it has been screwed up." 6 Jun shrugged and said.
"Anyway, it's only these aspects. I've handed over the ship to you. I've received the money. From now on, this will be your warship. I've got someone to buy it. It's called Xingba." 6 Jun finally explained it and left.
Taishici looked at the three huge words on the warship and couldn't help but feel sad, but then Taishici strengthened his determination. Everything he lost at that time would be returned to Kushan one day to sacrifice to Gan Ning's spirit in heaven.
"Let's go, get on the boat." Taishici turned his head and said to Cai Mao, "According to the request of the governor of Lu, we will go to the east to train together."
Shortly after Taishici and Cai Mao boarded the ship, Xu Sheng and others led the remaining five sixth-generation ships together. By the way, it was not that Chen Xi was unwilling to equip Taishici and others with more warships, but there were only so many people left in the current navy.
"Wen Xiang, I'll introduce you to you. This is General Cai Degui and General Cai. How about Danyang going?" Taishi Ci and others transferred Xu Sheng to the flagship and introduced him while asking.
Xu Sheng and Cai Mao bowed to each other, and the other captains bowed to bow.
"About 3,000 were recruited, but it would probably not work in the future. Jiangdong was watching too closely. This was Zhou Gongjin, Sun Bofu and others were not in Jiangdong. Otherwise, I'm afraid something would happen to me as soon as I recruited the troops." Xu Sheng sighed and said.
Chapter completed!
