Summoning the Heroes of the Chaotic War in Another World Chapter 1073: Weapons reform, patrolling the fierce whale, and the beginning of the treasure ship
Chapter 1073: Weapons reform, patrolling the fierce whale, and the beginning of the treasure ship
Just as Yao Guangxiao and the others said, although Wang Yu did not accept today's persuasion to move in and expressed his attitude, it still caused quite a stir in Da Cang!
Even in the various circles under Wang Yu's rule, after receiving the news, many people gathered in small groups and talked about it, thinking about when to express their attitude.
Although this kind of thing happened suddenly, everyone under Wang Yu's rule is now extremely concerned about this matter.
Last but not least, even if no benefit is gained from this matter, nothing can go wrong.
This kind of thing has always been the most likely thing to kill people.
However, compared to the restlessness of these people below, Wang Yu calmed down at this time.
Although there are no hidden rules in this other world, this principle still exists. As long as he deliberately delays the process, the best time may come when the process is completed.
Moreover, for the first time, it could be said that it was because of Gu Ling that the incident happened suddenly, and everyone present, including Wang Yu, was not prepared in any way.
However, after this first time, those civil and military officials should also know that they will prepare for the second time. With preparations already made, when the second time comes, they will never be as timid as the first time.
.
They will definitely make a lot of preparations for the second time, which will take time. Moreover, they should also wait for a suitable opportunity, and this will also take time.
Therefore, in order to avoid the counselors and generals who have been trying to find his limelight these days, Wang Yu simply left Zhendong City and went to patrol below. In this way, he used this method to avoid the troubles that gave him a headache.
The first stop he inspected was the weapons manufacturing base in Yanbei.
Ever since he watched the Dongfang family, Wang Yu has made up his mind to reform the weapons manufacturing factory in Yanbei. In other words, not only the weapons manufacturing factory in Yanbei, but also the weapons manufacturing factories everywhere under his rule must be reformed.
reform.
First of all, Wang Yu simply abandoned most of the small weapons manufacturing areas, gathered the craftsmen of these small weapons manufacturing factories, and only established two or three weapons manufacturing bases of a certain scale in certain important cities.
.are once scattered phenomena, and are gradually moving towards large-scale production.
Not only weapon casting, but the entire foundry industry has this trend, but weapon casting is given priority.
In this way, all foundry industries in the Northland were unified, and handicraft molds were created. Standardized assembly line production was formally proposed in the Northland to improve the efficiency of the foundry industry.
The most benefited from standardized production is ancient skillful machinery, which is reflected in folk locks, carriages and horses, etc.
In terms of military affairs, bows and siege equipment naturally take priority. Because these equipment have many parts and are not as integrated as swords, it is extremely difficult to repair them after damage due to the uneven size and length of the parts.
Another example is the crossbow arrow slot. Only arrows of the corresponding size can be put in. If it is too big, it will not fit. If it is too small, it will loosen and lose its lethality.
Many people think that after they have finished shooting their crossbow arrows on the battlefield, they can pull out the crossbow arrows fired by the opponent and then load the crossbow for use. But in fact, this is completely a misunderstanding. This can be done with bows and arrows to a certain extent, but it is simply impossible to achieve this with crossbow arrows!
Different models of crossbows also have different crossbow arrows, not only in length, but also in weight. For example, the crossbow arrows in the North, because of the colder weather, are less dense than those in places where it is like spring all year round.
The weight is generally slightly heavier.
Standardized production solves many problems.
Equipment is being produced in large quantities, and the new army is gradually forming combat effectiveness. Wang Yu's good mood is self-evident. After all, the army under his command is his most fundamental confidence.
Therefore, although the recent series of reforms did involve a lot of his mind, they also made him happy and tired.
The second stop of his inspection was the current base of the Sperm Whale Army.
The Fierce Whale Army is the only one among the major field armies today that has not confirmed the candidate for its army leader.
What Wang Yu is currently inspecting is the base where the Yanbei Navy Fleet, one of the two fleets under the Lieutenant Whale Army, is located.
And this is also the one that is currently complete among the two fleets.
As for the Tianhe Navy Fleet of the Inland Navy, at present, the newly recruited 10,000 soldiers have not been trained yet. Compared with the previous 20,000 soldiers, they are still inferior in all aspects.
As a naval force that will focus on maritime power in the future, this naval fleet and their warships are basically super-large warships and large warships.
The reason why Wang Yu came to inspect the naval base was because he finally got the good news not long ago. After such a long time and the work of countless skilled craftsmen, the first treasure ship could be officially launched.
Moreover, Mo Peng also officially started the construction work of the second batch of treasure ships, and this time he built five ships in one go.
Because it was the first time, the speed was a little slower. After such a successful experience, the speed will definitely speed up in the future. This is why, after the success of the first boat, the second batch was five in one go.
Ship casting work.
With the complete annihilation of the Donghai Navy a few years ago, in the entire world, only Wang Yu still controls the full strength of the navy.
To put it simply, a water village is a camp on the water. There are chariots, horses and soldiers in the camp on the road, while the camp on the water naturally consists of various types of boats and navy soldiers.
The general situation is that huge and long logs are nailed into the bottom of the water to form a foundation, and houses are built on top of them. These houses are used as strongholds to resist the enemy's naval attack. At the same time, they are surrounded inside.
There is a large amount of open space on the water surface for docking your own ships.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The construction of houses on the water is full of twists and turns. People who do not know where they are going will lose the direction of the boat if they enter the water village rashly, which will affect the soldiers in the house.
, so he shot him with a crossbow.
Wang Yu entered the water village and immediately boarded the newly built treasure ship. This treasure ship could accommodate thousands of soldiers, and just to drive it required two hundred people.
The treasure ship was loaded with a small number of Hundred War God machine crossbows, as well as a large number of bed crossbows and medium-sized catapults.
At least, now, this is the biggest known battle in this otherworldly apocalypse,
"My lord, the navy has 615 ships of all sizes, patrolling day and night, and practicing diligently. Now there are 30,000 main combatants in the navy, plus various auxiliary units and migrant workers! The total number is 50,000." Mo Peng said to the king.
Yu reported on the current situation of Yanbei Navy.
Although the majority of the navy is main battle officers, it also includes a large number of sailors, maintenance personnel of warships, maintenance personnel of various equipment on the ships, and a large number of handymen.
of migrant workers.
When sailing on the sea, in addition to the main battle warships, they are generally equipped with corresponding auxiliary ships, such as grain ships specialized in transporting grain and grass, oil ships specialized in transporting kerosene, and even when necessary, there will also be specialized cargo ships.
Horse-drawn ship.
These auxiliary ships require a large number of handymen.
"Very good..." Wang Yu stood up, and after the soldiers retreated to both sides, he came to the bow of the ship.
"The navy is of vital importance, and its status is not inferior to other major armies. You have been riding as steady as a rock all year round, but when you get on this ship, you have no roots for the time being."
Needless to say, the two personal guards who came with Wang Yu this time were Dian Wei and Xu Chu, as well as Li Yuanba, the number one combat force under his command. As for the two celestial-level warriors following him, they were even less powerful.
Need to elaborate.
When Wang Yu travels now, he will usually be accompanied by about two celestial-level warriors. Even if they are not exposed in the light, they will be hidden in the dark, somewhere around the corner.
In addition to these people with the nature of guards, the remaining four important generals are Yue Fei, Tan Daoji, Zhang Han, and Meng Tian. In addition, Wang Pu, a counselor, accompanies him to relieve his boredom.
As for Zhang Bin, Yao Guangxiao and the others, they were left to deal with the affairs of Zhendong City, so there was no need to take them with them.
After Meng Tian led an army of 100,000 people back to Yanbei, these 100,000 soldiers and horses also officially entered the work of reorganizing into five main field armies. In order to cooperate, Meng Tian did not leave for the time being, and this time he was taken with him by Wang Yu.
Anyway, based on the current situation in Qingbei, even if Meng Tian does not return to Yannan for the time being, there will be no serious problems. At this time, whether it is King Wei or the Tianshi Dao south of King Wei, it is the most troublesome time.
The warship is still docked on the shore. It is only due to the slight swaying of the wind and waves that it has not really entered the vast sea. However, except for Yue Fei, who is in a somewhat better condition, the rest of them have more expressions on their faces.
It's a little unnatural. If you really sail on the sea in the future, it will be fine.
The wind and waves on the sea are much greater than those on rivers and lakes. If we really take them for a spin on the sea, will they become soft-footed shrimps?
In fact, Wang Yu has always attached great importance to the construction of water forces. Otherwise, the Fierce Whale Corps would not have become one of the five main armies. In addition to the Yanbei Navy, there would not be another Tianhe Water Corps.
Master.
And with the outbreak of the war between the Sun Kingdom and Dongyi, he paid more attention to the importance of the navy.
Especially when facing the Kingdom of the Sun, if we can control a strong navy, even if a war breaks out, we will naturally have the upper hand.
After Wang Yu's words showed how much he valued the navy, most of the generals, including Mo Peng, looked happy, and the surrounding navy also became much more arrogant.
In the beginning, Wang Yu also relied on many Yanbei naval forces when he faced Dongyi.
But with the appearance of Gan Ning, Shi Lang and these people, although the navy's power expanded on the surface, it was not in the hands of Mo Peng, but in the hands of other people. At one point, he even had conflicts with others.
Zhao Anling and others had the same idea. Once he was the emperor and his ministers, he was afraid that he would also be marginalized in the future.
However, when the task of casting the treasure ship was secretly handed over to him, he became more ambitious.
Dian Wei was honest and said: "My lord, I, Old Dian, can be stable on a horse, and I can be stable on this boat!"
Meng Tian and others naturally expressed the same view.
Wang Yu then smiled and said: "In that case, Uncle Mo, let's sail the boat out to sea and make a circle!"
"Here!" Mo Peng agreed and immediately went to make arrangements.
At the same time, I couldn't help but have the thought of watching Dian Wei and the others make a fool of themselves later. Even though the boat would shake when they stayed on the beach, it was nothing compared to when they actually started sailing.
"Pull out the anchor and sail. The warship is in front, the treasure ship is in the middle, and the fighting ships are guarding the two wings!" As Mo Peng greeted him, more than thirty ships of various types immediately weighed anchor.
Under the vigorous shouts of the sailors, the oars, which were comparable to the blades of a windmill, began to paddle, and more than thirty huge warships immediately sailed out of the water village.
…
"Isn't it normal?" The treasure ship sailed smoothly under the gentle wind and the sun. Dian Wei walked up and down the bow of the ship with his iron halberd on his back, showing that he was walking on level ground.
Mo Peng, on the other hand, smiled and said nothing. He would be the one to suffer when a storm hits him.
It just so happened that at this time, an undercurrent surged through, causing even a huge treasure ship to shake a few times.
With the shaking, the Tiger Guards could not help but sway back and forth, staggering their lunges before standing firm. Looking at the sailors on the boat, they remained motionless. The shaking had minimal impact on them.
The faces of Meng Tian and other generals suddenly changed slightly, and they used the power of a thousand catties to stabilize their bodies. If they were to attack the enemy now, their strength would immediately decrease by five points.
Meng Tian and others were standing still, so they had time to prepare. Dian Wei, who was walking around, shouted loudly and suddenly swayed this way and that with the inertia of the ship. He grabbed a navy soldier and managed to stabilize his body.
"General Dian, be careful." the navy soldier reminded kindly.
Dian Wei's face turned red, but fortunately it was dark and could not be seen.
By the way, although Dian Wei's skin color is not as dark as that of Li Kui and Zhang Fei, it is not much different.
And many generals only realized at this time that the power of the water, the water battle on the ship, was not just as simple as facing the enemy, but also at the same time resisting the constantly shaking deck under their feet.
This is still on a very large warship like the treasure ship. If it is a small ship like a scorpion, it will be even more unstable if it is rocking under the water all the time. At that time, even if they have all the strength, I am afraid they are just waiting to be slaughtered.
of lamb.
"You must not underestimate battles on ships. The naval and ground forces have different combat methods. If the two sides are to adapt to each other, they will not be able to connect them even if they take three to five years."
As Wang Yu spoke, he couldn't help but think of Blue Star's Marine Corps. Why are the Marine Corps so powerful?
It can be understood from the literal meaning. If you are good at both water and land warfare, you will naturally be better than a soldier who only knows one.
"My lord taught me a lesson." Meng Tian and others said in unison.
