The enemy turns his troops into bandits and feeds war with war.
I just followed the trend and used the black to eat the black.
They can rob the people, but they can also rely on the combat power of a single warship to take advantage of the enemy and plunder in turn.
Although the power of a combined army is huge, it will be very embarrassing if it is defeated.
Considering that team action is always slower than solo action, after all, there are always those left behind, and the opponent also consciously disperses the warships...
Then falling short becomes a high probability event.
Under this probability, if a large army is dispatched, it will be expensive to launch, and it will be difficult to achieve success on the other hand.
If you just calculate it casually, it's a loss. You really can only join if you can't beat it. If you encounter someone who is being cheated, just take advantage of it.
After all, there is a combat advantage of a single warship. It is actually a way to use one ship to capture the single ship and use the other ship to fight.
Chai Shao felt quite confident after clarifying his thinking.
But now it seems...
This seems unreliable.
The other party does have more ships than this one, but now it seems that the other party's gathering speed is faster than expected.
This also means that the actions of gangsters and gangsters also face high risks.
This time it was Chai Shao who led the troops. Chai Shao was a veteran and a member of Lingyan Pavilion...
If replaced by an ordinary general, he might not even be able to achieve the record of destroying four large ships, and the overall situation would be even more severe by then.
In other words, Hangzhou's shipbuilding production capacity may not be comparable, but...
In other words, the opponent's shipbuilding production capacity is also not bad. But at this time, the combat exchange ratio is still about one to one, which is very disgusting...
The next stage is the werewolf killing game of "Please close your eyes after dark, who is that boat?" and the continuous attrition war between boats and people.
How does this work?
Although Chai Shao just showed his face, he did not change his ambition because of it - after all, such battles are relatively common on land.
But of course Li Sheng will not be satisfied with this and is always wasting time with his opponent. How long will it take to postpone the development of overseas interests?
The key point is that the other party can plunder and buy food everywhere, but our side has to consume the national treasury budget and the people's food. The cost of this war is obviously different, and it will be a loss no matter how long it continues.
In this case, you have to think of an idea.
However, Chai Shao and others looked very surprised. This ship...
"Is the Holy Marquis planning to build a new ship?"
Chai Shao's eyes widened in surprise, full of surprise.
If new and stronger warships could be built, that would be great news.
In fact, he is very satisfied with the current situation. The warship is very useful. Although it is very strenuous from the perspective of "suppression", it is better than being unable to do anything.
But Li Sheng shook his head.
"No, no, it can't be said to be a warship."
"Don't build ships? Then..."
Chai Shao was stunned for a moment. If he didn't build a new warship...
At the current pace, I'm afraid it won't be long before the fleet's establishment...
Li Sheng smiled and said, "Although it is not shipbuilding, it is actually shipbuilding. In short... you guys rest for a while and I will test the things. Then you will know. Improving combat power is not enough, but simply suppressing pirates is still possible.
no problem."
Chai Shao and others were confused as to what was going on...
What is Li Sheng busy with?
But Li Shengdu said that if it can help suppress pirates, that's okay.
However, after Li Sheng left, Chai Shao and others could not help but have their own thoughts.
"Brother Chai, your injuries..."
Changsun Wuji was a little worried and looked at Chai Shao and then at Ma Zhou.
Although he was not a front-line general, he also knew that the naval battle the night before yesterday had a tragic outcome. The entire ship was on fire, and there were not many people alive in the end.
Chai Shao waved his hand,
"This is a common thing for military strategists. Now that I am alive and have limbs, I can eat and drink. This is my sign. No need to say more. But..."
"Brother Changsun, what do you think the Holy Marquis is planning to do this time?"
Chai Shao was not that familiar with industrial matters.
After all, weapons can be made in any way. Of course, good and bad have different qualities. This still needs to be done by reliable people.
But generally speaking, in the past, although ordnance consumed a lot of treasury resources, it was not a particularly big deal. The real bulk of logistics was always food and winter clothing.
But now the situation seems to have changed. The production of military resources in the rear has become much more important than before...
Therefore, Chai Shao felt that he could actually ask Changsun Wuji for his opinion.
After being asked this question, Changsun Wuji also recalled the scenes he had seen in Chang'an...
After thinking about it for a while, I finally came to the conclusion that...
Shaked his head.
"Well...Brother Chai, to be honest, I can't answer you."
"ah?"
Of course, if you can't answer, you have nothing to ask further, but Chai Shao felt that Changsun Wuji should have something to express.
And then, Changsun Wuji also said.
"When we were in Chang'an, the person who had the most contact with the Holy Marquis was actually Your Majesty, and the others were just more or less different. But even so, I'm afraid even His Majesty... wouldn't be able to know what the Holy Marquis will do next."
"At that time when Zhenguan was just established and the people were not having enough to eat, the Holy Marquis took out potatoes, sweet potatoes, plows, etc. Faced with the danger of the Turks, the Holy Marquis took out grenades."
"Like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and grenades, who would want to get these things?"
Changsun Wuji said and directly spread his hands.
Chai Shao nodded, this is true...
But at this moment, Ma Zhou, who was lying beside him, thought about it and suddenly said,
"Uh... General Chai, Lord Changsun, I have some ideas."
"oh?"
Chai Shao, Changsun Wuji's eyes lit up, "What do you think, but it doesn't matter!"
The two of them suddenly remembered that Ma Zhou was Li Sheng's apprentice.
In terms of experience in leading soldiers and becoming an official, he may be far behind, but when it comes to understanding Li Sheng, he is really better than the two old guys.
"In fact, the things created by the Holy Marquis are not without rules. Instead, they are all made based on scientific principles..."
"Hard-booted ape carp?"
The two of them couldn't help but be startled, as if they had heard this word somewhere...
Ma Zhou smiled and continued,
"For example, this grenade is actually powered by the intense combustion of gunpowder in it, and the Holy Marquis said..."
"In the future, all weapons will gradually use this gunpowder. In this case, I think... the new weapons mentioned by the Holy Lord should also be new grenades. They are more powerful and have a longer range!"
Ma Zhou said this.
Chai and Shao suddenly understood and grasped the key point.
Grenade, gunpowder...
Yes, this is the point.
The most powerful skill of the Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty is throwing grenades, isn't it?
This is now known to the surrounding countries of the Tang Dynasty, including Tubo and Goguryeo, but they have nothing to do.
