Wang Yan's departure was much later than expected. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Gan Hui and the others came back late from Liaodong, and they patrolled around the Zhoushan Islands in Zhejiang, using new warships to deter those fishermen, saying that fishermen might become pirates one day, so they had to beat them.

By the way, fresh water was replenished, and a lot of goods were shipped from the Dengzhou area, and it was already more than November when I finally returned to Bengang.

This year is still the most active time of the Xiaoice period, even Guangzhou has a record of snow, Taiwan's climate is warmer than the mainland, but after November, the temperature also drops, many people wear jackets to protect against the cold.

The people who came from Liaodong couldn't even wear their robes, and everyone took off their thick cotton jackets, moved their bodies, and wanted to jump into the sea and swim around.

Gan Hui smiled at Wang Yan and said, "I know that Brother Wang is from Datong, but you have been in the south for two years, and you may not be able to adapt when you go back." When we were in Liaodong, there were two heavy snowfalls in a row, looking at the past there was no variegation at all, every day on the Phi Island was a bitter wind, and I didn't dare to open my mouth to speak, the wind could blow straight into the stomach, and the whole body was cold like a popsicle, and after staying outside for a little longer, my face was wooden, and the wind cut people's hands and faces like a knife, and some people didn't care at first, and then I got frostbite. There is no way, it is better to wrap the whole body with big wool clothes, and even apply animal oil to your hands and face. ”

Wang Yan smiled when he heard this, and he said: "I am a native of Datong, and I can experience a lot of this kind of weather." ”

"It's different, it's not the same." Gan Hui said: "I have also traveled from Datong to Mobei, and then to the Russian territory in the far north, which is much colder than Liaodong, but there is nothing to adapt to, but it is cold and warm, and it is really difficult to be." ”

"Brother Gan said so, we will be careful." Feeling the friendship of his comrades-in-arms, the so-called disputes between the so-called southerners and northerners have also been alleviated a lot, Wang Yan smiled and hugged his fists, and then waved goodbye to the people who saw him off on the shore.

The attachés also stepped on the gangplank and began to board the ship, the ship had just returned, and after a few days of maintenance, it was about to start again, but fortunately, it was a new ship that had just been launched, and it was ready to set off again after simple maintenance.

"Wang, we must emphasize that the plan to build a big ship cannot be postponed, and it must be carried out as soon as possible!"

It was not only Chinese who saw off in the port, but also quite a lot of high-nosed and deep-eyed Russians, and after a long time of getting along, basically these Russians also learned Chinese, and of course, it was also a well-rounded official dialect...... This is Zhang Han's request, because the source of personnel within Hutchison is quite complicated, it is no longer limited to Xuanda place, there are people from northern Shaanxi, there are also people from southern Jin, as well as people from Hebei, Liaodong, Fujian, and quite a lot of Mongolian descendants.

There is a reason why the northern official dialect became Mandarin in later generations, at least it is not as difficult to promote the southern dialect as it is, and now the internal daily life of Hutchison has been dominated by the northern official dialect, even if it is the army, because the source of military personnel cannot be a place, and the communication with each other is required to use the official dialect to communicate.

The speaker is Dezhnev, who speaks an official language, but it is not very popular to speak.

"Don't worry." Wang Yan smiled and said, "I will definitely report our entire plan to our adults in detail." ”

"It's going to get serious." Dezhnev looked at Wang Yan and said word by word: "We may lose our trade routes and be blocked in the port." ”

Wang Yan's face changed and said, "It's impossible! ”

Dezhnev shook his head and made a helpless hand gesture.

Waiting for Wang Yan and others to get on the boat, put away the gangplank, the sailboat was pulled away from the trestle and the port area by the eight-pulp boat, and after entering the sea, the eight-pulp boat rowed away, and the sailboat ate the wind and slowly sailed away, and left people's sight after a while.

"Komov." Dezhnev said to his assistants with a gloomy face: "These Chinese guys, although they have invited us over at a great cost, they just want to call us shipbuilding technology, captains, boatswains, teach them to sail sailboats, how to deal with those ropes that are messier than the thread, they want captains, first mates, boatswains, and qualified sailors, but they have not thought about the grand strategy and tactics of the navy at all, which is simply ridiculous!" ”

Komov shrugged his shoulders and said: "There are only sailors in this country, there is no navy. That is, they have only coastal defense forces and have never penetrated deep into the ocean. ”

"They have Zheng He." Dezhnev said: "A huge fleet, tens of thousands of people went to sea and sailed, but as in the current situation, they themselves did not know the purpose and goal of the voyage, and they had no goal at all, and they were just wasting money to declare their national prestige, so they were later stopped by their ministers. ”

"They still can't understand the naval thinking and approach of the Europeans." Komov said with some tolerance: "It's okay, give them time." ”

"But we don't have much time." Dezhnev said: "Originally, I hoped that within ten years I could go down from the Arctic Ocean to the east, looking for the warm water ocean outlet in the east, and now I know that there will be a port along the coast of Liaodong in the Ming Kingdom all the way to the east, although it is not the ice-free port we want, but as long as there is a foothold, we can build a ship all the way back, find the mouth of the river and advance to the middle of Siberia, so that a large area of land to the east will be owned by the great motherland and the tsar." We are so anxious, and so are the Dutch...... In the Baltic, although our biggest enemy is Sweden, we also have a lot of dealings with the British and the Dutch, and we know very well how they deal with potential enemies and conflicts! ”

Komov looked solemn and nodded heavily.

Komov said: "The Dutch will feel the threat of the Hutchison sailors who have taken the peace, and they will definitely find a way to solve this threat!" ”

"But now Heyusheng Shui Shi is still very early to form......"

"Their junk boats are not even as good as our sail clippers and sail boats!"

"Sail Clipper ......" Dezhnev looked as if he had been reminded by Komov.

The sail clipper is also a feature of the Baltic Sea naval battle...... After entering the 16th century, with the advent of the Age of Discovery, the era of sail warships also came, and the sailing ships that once roamed the Mediterranean Sea were embarrassed and faced the fate of being eliminated.

Large sail pulp clippers can only carry five to ten copper cannons at most, and the largest Venetian giant pulp ship has a record of carrying thirty guns, but they are all small and medium-sized guns, and they are completely incomparable with the large guns on sail battleships, so by the seventeenth century, most of the maritime powers have eliminated the paddle warships, and all of them are sail warships.

The Baltic states, especially Sweden and Russia, still retained a considerable number of rowing warships until the beginning of the eighteenth century, especially during the period of Peter the Great, in order to compete with Sweden for the control of sea pines, several large-scale naval battles broke out, and Russia became an empire, and Peter Gazun made great achievements for the emperor.

The sail ship is generally fifteen slurries on the left and right, the pulp is more than ten meters long, and the two sides are rowed together, which has an advantage over the sail warship in terms of speed and mobility in the calm sea, which is why the Russians continued to build sail clippers and sail ships in the eighteenth century.

Especially with strong enough fighters, in the battle of the horns, the role of the sailboat is much greater than that of the sailboat.

"We're going to talk to someone from the marching division about this." Komov said: "Sooner rather than later." ”

Dezhnev said: "Chang Wei is not here, Wang Yan is gone, Jiang Kui and Zhang Xuwen are not in the camp, it seems that we can only discuss with Li Shouxin." This incident was originally intended to ask his military subordinates to contribute. ”

"Lee?" Komov shook his head and said: "A standard typical soldier, only in charge of military affairs, I'm afraid it may not be able to help." ”

"You're mistaken about him." Dezhnev said with a smile: "Li is just a very wise person, he has the strongest military power in the whole of Taiwan, and he will choose to interfere as little as possible in political affairs before a new team is established, or before there is a force to contain him." gives people the impression that he is obscure, but it is not that he does not understand military and political affairs, but he has made the wisest decisions and choices at a staged time. When he understands that things are urgent and we really need his help, this person will make the right decision. ”

……

"The speed of this sailboat is really fast."

"It's also very weird in shape."

"These terrible Chinese, are they no longer satisfied with their junk ships?"

When the Datong Zhongwei passed through the sea of Penghu, a huge Dutch warship had just sailed from the distant sea, the two sides took a look at each other a few nautical miles apart, and Yusheng's battleship was very windy, and the speed of the ship shuttled away from the left side very quickly, the Dutch warship had just arrived in the port, the mainsail had fallen, and the hull was adjusted with the side sail, and the small boat sailed out of the port, ready to tow the big ship into the port, at this time, both sides found each other.

The Dutchmen stood on the bow of the ship and on the side of the ship, looking at the clipper with astonishment.

The shape of the schooner is obviously different from that of the Galen ship, and it is also different from the ordinary galleon, the hull is obviously more streamlined, the bow does not have a ship, only a long angle of attack, and the stern does not even have an angle of attack, the hull looks light and simple, and the mast is only a double mas, driven by the mule sail and the mainsail, the hull is like a shuttle and flies by, and the speed is about thirty percent higher than that of ordinary galleons and Galen ships.

The captain of the Dutch ship paid more attention to the sides of the schooner, and when he saw that it was a multi-deck with obvious gun ports on both sides, the Dutchman's face became gloomy.
