However, when Grandpa Wei was ambitious to show his skills, the admirals looked strange.

It's just that the father-in-law's gearing up made the admirals really dare not step forward to pour cold water on the father-in-law.

In fact, the naval commanders had seen all the firearms that my father-in-law had brought from Beijing, but except for mines and individual firearms, the rest of the things could be described in four words in the eyes of these generals - "flashy and unrealistic".

This also indirectly explains why Gonggong Wei was able to buy so many firearms from the ordnance supervisor at one time, because the army did not want to see these things at all.

The design concept of some firearms is very good, but when used in specific operations, there will always be various problems, and the firing effect cannot be guaranteed.

This is still light, and some firearms with serious mass will even fly well, and suddenly turn to fly towards their own ships.

In the Battle of Luliang, it was because other ships mistakenly threw firearms into Deng Zilong's ship, which caused Deng Zilong's ship to catch fire, and the Japanese army took the opportunity to counterattack and jump close to the ship to fight hand-to-hand, Deng Zilong led his troops to die in battle, and the Korean general Yi Sunsin who came to the rescue was also killed.

Therefore, even if so many firearms were produced in China, in real naval warfare, the Ming Dynasty sailors were unwilling or rarely used those "new firearms" invented in China, and their main combat mode was still close to the ship with firearms and hand-to-hand combat, and artillery bombardment was secondary.

During the Battle of Lulianghai, the three armies of China, Japan and North Korea staged a hand-to-hand battle in Lulianghai, rather than the naval artillery bombardment that Wei Gonggong thought.

This mode of battle will continue for at least a hundred years in the history without Gonggong Wei.

Including the battle of Zheng's naval army to attack Taiwan and the later battle of Penghu between Ming, Zheng and Manchu, they were all pure hand-to-hand combat modes at sea.

Melee is the mainstay.

This is also the reason why Zheng's naval army was unable to blockade Taiwan during the campaign to attack Taiwan, so that the Dutch gunboats could still move freely in Taiwanese waters.

Because, the speed of Ming Zheng's warships was not as fast as the Dutch, and although the Dutch had fewer ships and fewer soldiers, they would not entangle with Zheng Jun, let alone fight to the death with Zheng Jun.

Objectively speaking, the development of firearms in the Ming Dynasty was actually on the right path, taking the new firearms that my father-in-law brought in, all of them were the predecessors of missiles and rockets, and the concept of "three-level boost" was achieved, and the mines were also very good, but after all, they were limited by science and technology, and the sudden death of the country made the formalization of firearms die halfway, and in the end most of them became the existence of Tatar jokes.

Otherwise, it is difficult to say whether the missile was newly developed by China.

…….

The reluctance of the sailor to use the "invention" of the War Bureau naturally led to a large backlog of inventory in the ordnance supervisor, and the ignorant Wei Gonggong rushed in.

As for Father-in-law Wei himself, he is complacent, thinking that the quality is not good, so he wins by quantity, who let him have no innovative production capacity.

Of course, it can also be said that Gonggong Wei is using his real money to explore the restructuring of the Ming army, and he crossed the river first by touching the stones.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't work, the key is to try, how do you know if you don't try.

Besides, the money is spent, so there's no reason not to use it.

Without these new firearms, do you dare to guarantee that those six ships will be left behind by our navy!

If you can't do it, you can't laugh at our innovation!

The one who is specifically responsible for his father-in-law's new tactics is his old man's personal barracks.

This time, there were only two battalions of the army that operated with the navy, one was a personal guard battalion mainly composed of Japanese people, and the other was a marine battalion composed of officers and men drawn from the navy.

The rest of the infantry battalions, including the father-in-law's hometown soldiers, did not accompany the army.

Well, you can think of the reason with your ass - seasickness.

Fighting on the river and fighting at sea are completely different things, and most of the officers and men who have not undergone training in naval warfare are not even able to stay on a sea ship for half a day.

There is no such restriction for the guard battalion and the marine battalion, the former is mainly a Japanese soldier, and it is also a navy, and the latter is an old sailor, and there is no seasickness problem between the two.

At present, several army battalion leaders are in Wusong Port, and Zheng Duo and Wu Fuming are in charge of conducting naval combat training with the cooperation of the navy's left-behind detachment.

The key point of training is three words - no seasickness.

The father-in-law noticed the strange look on the admiral's face, and he knew that the guys must be laughing at his old man's whims.

The father-in-law didn't say anything, he knew that these people must have seen these new firearms, otherwise they wouldn't have such a look.

To be honest, his old man also played drums in his heart.

Whether he can make his old man's face look at them depends on Oshima and Ankokuji.

The father-in-law nodded at Oda, who bowed and said yes, then walked to the bow of the boat and waved a triangular red flag vigorously. Two more guards blew the horn vigorously, and the sound of the horn was different from the usual trumpet sound in the army, three long and two short, very hurried.

The navy also made deployment adjustments according to the requirements of Gonggong Wei, and each ship tightly bit the six ships of the Qianhu Institute that escaped.

After leading his subordinates in a bronze winch boat, Anguo Temple received the signal of the main public ship, and immediately ordered his subordinates to carry out the four fire dragon cannons in the cabin.

The reason why it is lifted, not pushed, is because this fire dragon cannon does not have wheels and gun carriages, weighs more than 100 catties, is long, and the head is the appearance of a dragon's head, so it is also called "fire dragon out of the water".

Under the dragon's head, on both sides of the dragon's tail, a half-kilogram powder keg is installed on each side, which gathers the four rocket fuses together and connects them with the rocket fuzes in the belly of the fire dragon. In water warfare, in the face of enemy ships, three or four feet above the water, ignite four powder kegs installed on the dragon's body, which is the first-stage rocket, which can propel the fire dragon to fly up to two or three miles away, and when the first-stage rocket is burned, it will automatically ignite the rocket in the dragon's belly, which is the second-stage rocket. Several rockets were fired from the dragon's mouth, reaching the target, causing the enemy ship to catch fire and burn.

There is only one premise for using the dragon cannon, that is, it must be close to the enemy ship to ensure that the rocket can hit the target after the dragon cannon is fired.

At the same time, several clippers where the guard battalion was located also picked up speed one after another, and the officers and men on board lifted out all kinds of new firearms and aimed them at the warships that were fleeing wildly in front.

"Ignition!"

Ankokuji himself held a torch and lit a dragon cannon, and with the sound of the fuse burning, the powder keg on the dragon's body ignited at the same time, and then flew out to the sea at the same time.

From a distance, it looks like a dragon.

The sound was also extremely loud, "whoosh", which made Gonggong Wei, who was watching the battle in the rear, in a trance, thinking that it was Chinese New Year's Eve.

"What?!"

The officers and men of a ship that was fleeing through the mountains heard a screech from behind, and immediately they saw something blazing on the surface of the sea flying towards their ship.

Fortunately, Grandpa Wei didn't scold him.

The father-in-law would only stare at the first few clippers, staring closely.

After chasing for two more miles, the scream of "whoosh" came from the father-in-law's ears again.

This time the screams were noticeably louder and denser than before.

The screech of rockets sounded on six clippers at the same time.

The admirals could see it clearly and in disbelief, because they saw more than a dozen rockets from different sides on the sea at the same time flying towards the last ship that pierced the mountains.

So much?

Not only was the navy surprised that so many fire dragons appeared on the sea at the same time, but the officers and men of the Thousand Households Piercing Mountains on the ship where the target was located were also stunned.

Sixteen rockets attacked from the left rear, right rear, and middle directions at the same time, and the flames in the air were accompanied by a screaming sound, and the scene was very spectacular.

Roar!

Duke Wei couldn't help but feel emotional, and Lao Huai was very relieved: The soldiers of the imperial army are really the true inheritance of our family to fight more and less!
