The strongest son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty

You need to inform Li Er in advance.

Otherwise, once a misunderstanding occurs, a crisis of trust will appear at any time.

Once a crisis of trust arises, it will be very difficult to survive in the Tang Empire, and Du He understands this in his heart.

An hour and a half later, two steam engine warships set sail.

"Master, this steam engine ship needs a lot of high-quality anthracite. If the quality is not enough, it will cause great damage to the boiler."

Lawson Road.

Du He read the operation manual and understood that Lu Xun was right!

However, high-quality anthracite is hard to find!

By the way, Bingzhou has the most coal, so you should be able to find good anthracite.

It seems that in memory, Lingnan goes west and crosses the Mekong River. There is a high mountain where a large amount of high-quality anthracite coal is stored.

"Bo Yan, this matter can only be purchased, and the anthracite is brought to the dock, and then enters the supply. In view of this situation,

In the future, we will have more and more steam engine warships, and the demand for anthracite will increase, so we must pay attention to it.

In addition, the navy must find a suitable place to build a large number of docks and ports, which can also be regarded as naval bases!

Boyan has to handle this matter personally, especially the places where the wharf is being built must be carefully inspected. "

Doo Ho said.

"Master, I understand."

Steam engine ships must be replenished at the pier, not only fresh water and food supplies, but also a large amount of anthracite.

What about this time?

Only one gourd mouth is a naval base and a shipyard.

Nothing else.

A long way to go.

There is still a long way to go to make Tang Emperor's navy completely strong, and it cannot be done in a day or two.

The steam engine warship sailed slowly, and the speed became faster and faster.

"Wow! So fast!"

Li Deqiu exclaimed.

Not only Li Deqiu was amazed, but Lu Xun next to him was shocked again.

Never dreamed that a steam engine ship would travel so fast, several times faster than a sail ship.

Almost 6 knots.

In this era, it is definitely crushing the speed of other ships.

Ride the wind and waves!

The waves on the bow of the boat turned over and jumped several feet high.

It is worthy of being a displacement of 1200 tons, and a full load of more than 1400 tons.

In this era, it definitely belongs to the super battleship.

"Master, at such a high speed, and the thick steel plates embedded in the hull, if it hits the wooden boat, it will sink immediately."

Lu Xun was surprised.

Ha ha!

"Bo Yan, the collision was carried out out of desperation, and the naval battle still needs to talk about tactics.

You can't just hit them, you should give full play to the advantage of the firepower of the warship, and you can't let the opponent's ship get close to the warship. "

Doo Ho said.

For water warfare, Du He is like an idiot.

I really don't understand.

Naval battles and land battles are very different concepts.

"Understood, in the future, we will formulate various tactics based on the performance of the steam engine warship."

Lawson Road.

On the simple pier, many soldiers saw the two ships without sails leaving, and their speed was getting faster and faster.

The soldiers were amazed.

All of a sudden, the soldiers were completely stunned, their mouths were opened wide enough to stuff an egg.

A ship without sails shocked a group of naval soldiers.

They kept asking each other what kind of ship it was.

Originally saw two steel ships.I was shocked in my heart, seeing the speed so fast, I couldn't even dream of it!

"Report to the governor, found dozens of ships, please ask for instructions."

A messenger reported.

"Master, look..."

Lu Xun asked.

Ha ha!

"Bo Yan, you are the commander of the fleet, you decide! Besides, let's test the battleship. When we meet a ship, let's see the power of the steam engine battleship!"

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

The next moment, Lu Xun asked the flag commander to play the semaphore, telling another warship to attack the fleet ahead.

"Reporting to the Governor, it is a warship of the Baekje Kingdom, and there are about 60 of them."

The messenger said.

"As soon as you enter the attack range, open fire immediately to completely wipe out the Baekje fleet, don't hold back."

Lu Xun ordered.

"As ordered!"

"Master, please name the two steam engine warships!"

Lawson Road.

name?

"Call it Chang'an and Luoyang! The warships produced in the future will all be divided according to displacement and purpose."

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

Chang'an and Luoyang quickly rushed towards the Baekje fleet.

On the watchtower, the soldiers reporting the number kept reporting.

What about the Baekje fleet?

Seeing two extremely huge ships approaching, it shocked my heart all of a sudden.

Damn it!

How can there be such a huge ship in the world.

Could it be the warship of Tang Emperor Army?

Before the opposing commander could recover, two warships under Lu Xun opened fire.

Whoosh!

Both Chang'an and Luoyang have a ballista with an effective range of 1000 steps, which is very powerful.

Bang!

Ah!

On the Baekje ship, someone was pierced by a crossbow arrow and screamed.

The firepower on the steam engine warship of the Tang Emperor Army was very fierce. When the crossbow arrows hit the Baekje ship, it could tear the ship to pieces.

Bang!

A boat in Baekje fell apart.

The soldiers jumped into the sea one after another and swam desperately to the shore.

Of course, at such a long distance, the accuracy of the ballistas on the Chang'an and Luoyang was a bit low, and many of them failed.

But what?

As the distance between the two sides narrowed, the hit rate of the ballista became higher and higher.

Whoosh!

Another round of crossbow arrows from the Chang'an ship flew towards the small wooden Baekje boat like lightning.

Bang bang bang!

Baekje's warship was too small. When a group of crossbow arrows hit it, sawdust jumped up one after another. After a while, the ship sank into the sea.

When the distance between the two sides entered 300 steps, the catapult opened fire.

Rumble!

The first round of catapults failed.

After all, when shooting on the sea, the hull is swaying, and it is not easy to shoot.

"Du Er, the Chang'an and Luoyang are very powerful! The opponent has nothing to do with the two warships.

The stones thrown up by the opponent did not cause any damage to the battleship, they could only leave a mark on the ship's body as if they were scratching the surface. "

Li Deqiu said.

Du He nodded.

"Master, we are going to crash into it, and check how the defense performance of the warship is. Do you think it is feasible?"

Lawson Road.

Ha ha!

"Bo Yan, you decide! Today is to try out the performance of the warship, and finally met the Baekje fleet.

Take a good look at the performance of the two warships in all aspects, and don't be afraid of any damage to the ships. "

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

boom!

The Chang'an collided with a warship in Baekje, and the Baekje warship fell apart instantly.

Destroy it!

Bang!

The pat-yu on the Changan hit the Baekje boat hard.

A hole appeared, seawater seeped in, and after a while, the boat sank slowly to the bottom of the sea.

Damn it!

The power of patting the Yu is awesome!

Whoosh whoosh!

The soldiers on the Chang'an started shooting at the Baekje boat one after another.

A Baekje soldier was impaled.
