Although Zhang Zhiyong was scolded, he admitted his mistake obediently, but looking at him, you can tell that he didn't care at all!
When Liu Haojia saw this, he sighed in his heart, that's what this guy is like! He didn't plan to take down the position of commander of his squadron, because as a soldier, you must have the spirit of daring to see the red with a bayonet! And although firearms are developing now,
Soon, but it has not completely replaced hand-to-hand combat. It is also good to have a bloody brave person!
After Liu Haojia finished commenting on the naval officer, he turned to the pirate leader on the other side. However, his face immediately darkened! The pirates who were still excited at first became honest immediately when they saw his face.
At this time, Liu Haojia said word by word: "Da Longtou, your subordinates performed well in this naval battle. Why don't you comment on it?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Guangting immediately knelt down and said: "The common people know their sins and beg the Marquis for forgiveness."
The pirates who were still beaming when they saw the big dragon kneeling down immediately understood what was going on. Wu Ninghou must have been busy because he had no energy to work today! However, these pirates also felt that since Liu Haojia came to find them, then
There must be a way to get them, maybe if you lower your head, this matter will be over!
So the pirate leaders looked at each other, knelt down and said in unison: "The common people have realized their mistake, Lord Qiu forgives!"
Liu Haojia did not tell them to get up, but said directly: "Big dragon head, what are you guilty of!"
Liu Guangting lowered his head and said: "Standing timidly in the face of battle is suspected of robbing you of credit after the war!"
Of course the pirates knew that what they said was right, but they didn't feel that they were wrong. They just lowered their heads and pretended to admit their guilt, waiting to get through this. Anyway, there was a big dragon in front of them.
Otherwise, what should Da Longtou do?
But Liu Haojia changed the subject and said: "Big Dragon Head, what do you think of the combat power of this cruiser under my feet? Is it possible that it is an eyesore?"
Liu Guangting said loudly: "The ship has a strong hull, fast speed, numerous artillery, and powerful combat power!"
Then Liu Haojia said slowly: "Do you know how many such cruisers there are now?"
Liu Guangting said loudly: "There are eight ships in total! Three are here, and the other five are training sailors in the south."
The pirates exchanged glances upon hearing this, but they didn't know the news. This was the first time the pirates actually saw the appearance of the cruiser. So at this time, they began to secretly calculate the combat effectiveness of the navy.
Liu Haojia laughed and said: "Da Longtou is indeed well-informed, but one thing you may not know is that there are still four such ships being assembled in the current dock, and they will be ready to go to sea in another month!"
The pirates were horrified when they heard this! They saw the power of these three cruisers. If an ordinary ship faced them, they would be riddled with holes before they even got close! Even if they got close, they would be riddled with holes.
It may not be possible to win! Because this kind of warship has high freeboard, if you want to engage in a boarding battle, you have to climb up! In the process, the opponent's condescending counterattack will kill and injure many people! 彡彡訁凊
What's more, this ship is so tall and heavy. There are nearly a hundred gunners on this ship alone. Plus the number of other sailors is even greater. They are not afraid of hand-to-hand combat! So if the Navy really starts to equip a large number of this new type of warfare,
Ships, in the future, the navy will probably be the only one on the sea!
This is what Liu Haojia said: "Big Dragon Head, you are my lord, what do you mean by these words?"
Liu Guangting said loudly: "I know! Mr. Hou wants to tell us that Mr. Hou has mastered the method of mass production of this new type of warship. I am afraid that soon the sea will be full of this new type of warship! As long as there are two years, the navy will
Then there is no opponent! The second point is to warn me! Now we are still of some use, but when these new warships roam the world, we will either go ashore or flee thousands of miles away!"
When the pirates around heard this, they were all frightened! Because now they finally figured out that what Liu Guangting said was true! If the navy uses all such ships, then they can attack whoever they want!
Let’s not talk about the navy, just talk about the maritime merchants. If they also use such ships, whether they can catch up with them or not, let alone win the battle, are two different things! Even if they catch up, the cannons left on the deck will be enough.
If they suppress their own attacks, how will the pirates survive? Is it really possible that they will spend their whole lives fishing and delivering goods?
Thinking of this, many pirates have already felt regretful, feeling that they should not have worked hard just now! Especially if they started to work hard before seeing the benefits, will the benefits be discounted?
At this time Liu Haojia finally said: "Big Dragon Head should get up and talk."
Liu Guangting thanked him and stood up. The pirate next to him also wanted to stand up, but Liu Guangting turned back and said: "The Marquis didn't tell you to get up, so please kneel down!"
The pirates had no choice but to kneel down on the deck of the ship again. At this time, Liu Guangting said: "Master Hou, the common people want to ask for a favor! After all, people like the common people have never been restrained by the military. If they are suddenly allowed to
It is simply impossible to act according to the rules of the military! Moreover, we are also useful, and we will do our best in the future, and we will not dare to violate it in the slightest!"
These pirates also woke up at this time, and remembered that this man really dared to kill people, and they hurriedly kowtowed and shouted: "I realize my mistake, please forgive me!"
Liu Haojia was silent for a moment and then said: "The purpose of taking you out to sea is to find another way for you to get rich and rich! But what about you? You are timid in the face of battle, procrastinating, and in the end you want to grab the victory! You will not use me at all.
Take your orders to heart!”
At this time, Liu Guangting once again led the pirates to prostrate themselves before him, and swore again that he would never dare to do anything to them again! In fact, Liu Haojia had no intention of doing anything to them, he just wanted to give them a beating. After all, he would need these people more often in the future.
Especially in Liu Haojia's mind, pirates like them will be the pioneers in exploring new shipping lanes and expanding overseas territory. At this moment, it is enough to beat them. So he stood up straight and said loudly: "Okay, I'll talk about it last.
Once again, the tasks scheduled for the future cannot be postponed, and the stories must not be false. They must be done in a down-to-earth manner. Do you remember?"
When the pirates heard this, they knew that this level had passed. Naturally, they were overjoyed and shouted in unison: "The common people have remembered it! Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your forgiveness!"
Liu Haojia said: "If you know you are wrong, you have to admit the punishment! This time I will give you a memory, and there will be no heavy punishment! When distributing the spoils, it will be reduced by 20%! However, the big dragon head and the few people around him fought bravely, so they are not within the scope of punishment.
Within! Okay, let’s celebrate tonight without alcohol!”
