Chapter 6: Mentoring (4)
Wan An endured the embarrassment, and then said: "Then in the next year, it will be safe, and I will send a few ships, and in about 20 days, I will be able to reach the Venezuela marked by Mr. on the nautical chart." "This is not surprising, originally after the Americans made the clippers, they could fly across the Atlantic in ten days," and then Si Gong first looked for a few concubines, and then learned the words of the local aborigines, and then found the white potato. Unexpectedly, a few months ago, the prince of Natu came over at night with a fleet, forty-five warships, all of which were larger than the Guangdong and Guangxi, and there were about twenty gun windows on one side, and they opened fire indiscriminately! Sir, their guns are not good, but they can't stand a lot, thousands of cannons are hitting like this! ”
Ding Yi listened, his face was gloomy and frightening, it was nothing bigger than the Guangxi, the Guangxi was only a few hundred tons of ship, the important thing is: it seems that Wan'an not only lost the battle, but also let the Portuguese learn the gunsoft tactics in advance.
Is Henry, the prince of one piece, an idle man? These people are the talents who opened the Age of Discovery, they are simply the Qin Emperor of China, the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty and the Song Ancestors; Figures such as Caesar, Darius, and Napoleon in the West kindly took Wan people to visit the school, but Wan An was good, and he directly played the example of the Heavenly Empire, and asked people to send the teachings and teaching materials, students, and so on!
How could Henry bow his head?
If the matter ends here, Ding Yiqi will forget it, after all, isn't the development of industrialization just to crush? Anyway, the ship is strong and the artillery is sharp, so if you are not happy, you will fight, the problem is that in the face of characters such as Emperor Qin and Han Wu, Caesar Darius, etc., if you want to fight, you have to be killed! Don't you see, of course how did you expel the Xiongnu and the Turks? Straight out of Asia. Otherwise, what would be the end? If you don't die if you fight a tiger, you will suffer from it, and someone will end up in it. It's a living example.
"These thirty or forty warships, thousands of guns. Even if it is a front-loading smoothbore gun, I am afraid that it is not something that Portugal can take out in a year. Ding Yi walked up to Wan An and said through gritted teeth, "In my opinion, it is likely that Prince Henry used some means to persuade the European countries, and the United Fleet that was prepared, you are disgusted, passed on the gunwales technology to the entire West." ”
Wan An buried his head in shame. He is a smart man himself, and he knows what Ding Yi said.
Failure may not be shameful, and famous generals in history may not have been defeated once.
The point is that when he got carried away, he inspired the gunsoft technique of Henry, the prince of navigation!
"The soldiers and sailors of the task force, do you have any heroic souls buried in other places?" Ding Yi took a deep breath, suppressed the anger that was about to explode in his heart, and asked in a deep voice.
Wan An kowtowed a few more times in panic. Only then did he reply: "Mr. Hui's words, no, not one, my armament." None remained. During this year, Sigong used ships frequently, and the sailors basically lived on the shore. This is also the reason why the watchtower found the enemy, and we were able to get out immediately; In fact, the casualties were not so heavy. The disciple is not excusing himself, but only describing the situation at that time. Five soldiers of the special brigade were buried in houses on the shore by the shells fired by the other side, and as a result, the soldiers of the special brigade had to go and grab their bodies and equipment, but they encountered another artillery fire, and the casualties exceeded double digits. As he spoke, his voice gradually lowered again, "The rest of the casualties were caused by naval battles, more than 30 rounds of bullets were fired in Guangdong, more than 20 rounds were fired in Guangxi, fortunately they were all solid shells, and those supply ships were either sunk or sunk by themselves, and none of ......them were captured."
"Li Le, go to Mahmoud and take the whip that binds the wood and bones to torture." Ding Yi commanded with an ugly face.
In this city where the bones are bound, there are flogging, but there are no such torture instruments on this side of the concession.
Unexpectedly, he pleaded for Wan'an, but after he came in and sat down, he must have crooked the corners of his mouth and shook his hands: "Rujin, you can't punish the doctor, after this, it is the Fengtian Palace, and it is just a court battle." "It's the emperor, and when the scholar makes a mistake, he only spans the butt, not the whip.
Fat Man Wen coughed lightly, but he also got up and saluted and said, "Young Master, it is a rule that you have set by prohibiting any human punishment of soldiers in the army. With these two leaders, hearing the return of the task force, Zhu Yong and Huang Xiaoyang rushed over when they heard the news, and they also pleaded for mercy.
After all, Wan'an's popularity is good, he is a very good person, and he also has the identity of Ding Yi's disciple.
As soon as Ding heard this, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and roared, "Enough! Shut up! Lao Tzu is not a fucking emperor! Corporal punishment is not allowed in the army, and Lao Tzu disciplines his disciples, can't he? Wan'an, if you don't want to be punished, you don't have to suffer this pain if you break down the door today! ”
Wan An raised his head on the ground and said very resolutely: "The disciple is wrong, and he is willing to suffer any punishment." "It's not how resolute he is, but he knows that Ding Yi is still protecting him so far; If he breaks down the door, he is afraid that he will be revenged, and he can draw a knife to kill the street gangsters, and he will have to commit suicide tonight.
Listening to his answer, Ding Yi's face was a little better, and at this time the whip was also taken over, a leather whip two feet long, Ding Yi looked at Zhu Yong and said: "You and I are my disciples, you will carry it out, if you dare to follow your own hands, if I do it myself, I will smoke it with you!" Do you understand? ”
"The disciple obeys." Zhu Yong reluctantly took the leather whip from Li Le's hand, he was born in the sect, and he was familiar with this thing, so he shook it a few times, and the desolate wind made people feel frightened.
"Hit!"
The leather whip was raised in the air like a long snake trying to stretch its body, and then after a momentary pause, it quickly tore through the air, making a tooth-aching sound of breaking the air, "Smack!" With just one whip, Wan An, who was biting the cork, fainted without saying a word.
After being woken up, Ding Yi took off the cork from his mouth and asked him, "Do you know what is wrong?" ”
"The disciple knows his mistake."
Ding nodded, stuffed the cork back into his mouth, and said to Zhu Yong: "Hit." ”
So Wan An was fainted again.
When he was woken up again, Wan An's face was as pale as paper.
"What's wrong?"
"Either you shouldn't do it, or you should wipe out the prince of the land, and you shouldn't leave a legacy behind."
Ding Yi nodded again and stuffed the cork into his mouth: "Hit." ”
The third time he was knocked unconscious and woken up, Wan An was already angry, if it wasn't for the two sergeants on the side, he would have collapsed directly.
"Stand up straight." Ding Yi said to the two sergeants, "Let go of him and let him stand up straight!" ”
Wan An staggered, barely standing, looking like the wind was blowing.
I only heard Ding Yi ask him: "If you break down the door, you will not be punished again." ”
"Disciple...... The disciple was willing to be punished. ”
Ding Yi stared at Wan An's eyes, and after half a burnt of incense, he exhaled a breath and said to Zhu Yong: "Go down and apply medicine to him." "If Wan An shirks his responsibility, then Ding Yi will definitely take his life, but he dares to bear the punishment, no matter what psychology he has, this thing is not good for action after all, but Ding Yi has no heart to suck him to death.
"Huaxia, I can't go back for the time being." Ding Yi sat down and said to Xu Bin, who looked like Alzheimer's, who seemed to be frightened by the Portuguese warship, and sat there, the corners of his mouth were a little crooked, and his hands twitched and trembled unconsciously from time to time, until Ding Yi said the latter sentence, Xu Bin seemed to wake up all of a sudden, because Ding Yi said to him, "Fortunately, when I traveled west, I knew that Great Qin was going to die, and only the capital Constantine was still resisting, land and water, Mr. Yang Hao came to the battle in person, and asked Mr. to make a detailed presentation to the Beijing Division and the military department. ”
Only one sentence of Ding Yi's words is false, that is, the countries of Western Europe are planning to march eastward, and the others basically have no water.
Xu Bin, an old fox who has been up and down in the sea for many years, how can he not hear the taste? At the moment, he didn't pretend to be Alzheimer's, his hands didn't tremble, his mouth didn't crooked, and he asked directly: "Does Rujin want to establish himself as a king overseas?" But when Huaxia is swinging, if there is a change, won't we become a tree with broken roots and water without a source? ”
"If there is a strong wind that day, Ding dies in the sea and dies in the belly of the fish, will the Ming Dynasty be finished?" Ding Yi asked Xu Bin with a smile.
Xu Bin was speechless for a while, but he heard Ding Yi say again: "I don't want to be a firefighter anymore, be a pastemaker, after all, it is a job that has no end, Daming wants to rise in the forest of the world, and it must not rely on Ding alone, if Daming dies without Ding Yi, then let it die." But I think at least Guangdong and Guangxi will not die. ”
Because these two places have basically realized the integration of the officials and gentry to pay food, the livelihood of the people at the bottom is not too bad, and there are also basic industrial infrastructure such as various workshops, and the work of the militia has also improved to a certain extent, plus the activities of the two organizations of the Heaven and Earth Society and the Zhongyi Society, Ding Yi felt that it was really the death of the Ming Dynasty, and Liangguang relied on the work foundation when he left, even if the decision-makers and generals were pigs, with mortars and rifled rear-loading cartridge shell rifles, not to mention the counteroffensive, it would not be a problem to support it for more than ten years.
"Can't the old man go back to China if he pretends to be crazy?" Xu Bin smiled bitterly and shook his head, he was an old man, and he didn't have Yang Shan's romantic temperament, he just thought that the sea breeze was so dangerous and backward, so he took this opportunity to pretend to be Alzheimer's, so that he could teach Ding Yi to let him go back, who knew that Ding Yi's arrangement didn't want to teach him to go back at all.
Ding Yi smiled and said: "The canal from Egypt to the Mediterranean has not been repaired, how can Mr. Yanghao return to China with peace of mind?" It is the ambition that has not been rewarded, the heroic spirit is long, and the majesty is immortal, and it should also guard the Ming Navy and run rampant in the Seven Seas! Sir, magnificent! "This is to sue Xu Bin, if the canal is not repaired, he will die overseas. (To be continued......)
