"That's quite powerful."
Brother Ruan was full of emotions: "The warships of the Dahua Navy are all made of fine iron and are extremely strong. The hull is one hundred meters long, twice as long as the Siamese warship. The cabin is hollow, which not only reduces the weight of the hull, but also Stock up on more supplies.”
"In terms of weapons, in addition to the usual shooting guns, flying claws, and bows and arrows, they were also equipped with iron pipes as thick as a bowl that had never been seen before. The iron pipes sprayed out sand and gravel, which directly sank the Siamese warship. It’s so fierce, so fierce, I really want to know what kind of weapon this iron pipe is.”
Yan Qi smiled slightly: "That's not an iron pipe! It's the latest iron cannon developed by Dahua. It can shoot sand and gravel, and it can blast the hull of a ship within thirty meters."
Brother Ruan was filled with envy: "Iron cannon? It shoots sand and gravel, it's really powerful."
Yan Qi shook his head: "Is it great? I think it's just average."
Brother Ruan was surprised: "Isn't this powerful enough?"
Yan Qidao: "You think it's powerful because you haven't seen a better weapon. If you had seen it, you wouldn't think how good the iron cannon is."
"ah?"
Brother Ruan was shocked: "Is there any weapon more powerful than an iron cannon?"
Yan Qi nodded: "Of course, the final test is being carried out at the Academy of Science of the Ministry of Industry. Presumably, actual combat exercises will be carried out in a few months."
Brother Ruan's eyes widened in envy: "What kind of weapon is that?"
Yan Qidao: "It is an upgraded version of the iron cannon, called a steel cannon. What is shot is no longer sand and gravel, but sulfur and saltpeter, the kind that explodes. The distance is long and the lethality is off the charts. Once it hits an enemy ship, it will cause A devastating blow.”
Brother Ruan was shocked when he heard this and didn't speak for a long time.
Yan Qi asked Brother Ruan again: "Is Xu Tianhu still an amateur at commanding the navy?"
"layman?"
Brother Ruan hurriedly shook his head: "Whoever dares to say that Xu Tianhu is an amateur is an amateur. I have never seen anyone as brave and good at fighting as Xu Tianhu. This guy seems to be born for war."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "You are right, apart from fighting, Xu Tianhu doesn't know how to do anything."
Brother Ruan recalled the past and was shocked: "Xu Tianhu successfully lured the Siamese navy into the pre-designed encirclement, and then surrounded it without attacking. It was not until three days later that he launched a siege against the Siamese navy, but deliberately left an escape hole."
"The Siamese naval forces were hungry for three days. They were so hungry that they couldn't care about anything. They panicked and escaped through the mouth."
"Xu Tianhu cut leeks on the Siamese navy at the gap he was guarding. The Dahua navy's casualties were reduced to a minimum, but it caused a devastating blow to the Siamese navy. It was really powerful. Now, when I think about it carefully, I find it incredible ."
"Hahaha."
Yan Qi laughed loudly, changed the subject, and stared at Brother Ruan with clear eyes: "What will happen if the Annan Navy fights against Dahua?"
"Hey, this...this is absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible."
Brother Ruan broke out in a cold sweat on his back: "Master Yan's words scare me to death. With Dahua's current powerful navy, if they fight against the Annan Navy, wouldn't the Annan Navy be unable to fight and lose their helmets?" A, numerous casualties?"
Yan Qi nodded: "You understand this truth, but it's a pity that King De doesn't."
Brother Ruan was startled and sighed: "Prince De really doesn't understand."
Yan Qidao: "King De is arrogant and arrogant. He always thinks that he can establish unparalleled military exploits, change the dynasty of Dahua, and encroach on the land of Dahua. He even relies on the geographical advantage to bully the people of Miao and occupy our land of Dahua."
"In the past, Dahua was weak and was in ruins. There were Japanese harassment in the east, resistance from the Western Regions in the west, and Turkic invasions in the north. They could only endure the evil spirit of King De who encroached on the Miao territory. Now...hehe..."
"It can't be done now. The Western Region has become a vassal, and the Turks have been defeated by me. Only the Japanese are left, and they are constantly harassing me. Will I be afraid?"
"If King De is stubborn and dares to invade Dahua, of course I will attack from both sides. The army will attack the river county, and the navy will attack the dock, and Annan will be surrounded by water and land. I want King De to pay for all the hatred with blood."
"don't want!"
Brother Ruan was frightened and said: "Then the people of Annan will suffer, isn't it? Lord Yan doesn't have to be so bloody."
Yan Qi smiled bitterly: "Is this my blood? This is King De's stubbornness. I can't let King De kill my people, but I have to retaliate against King De with kindness, right? Who do you think I am? I am not a kind person. But he is a person who will surely retaliate."
"this……"
Brother Ruan's face was ashen and he shuddered.
He believed Yan Qi's words 100%.
He now understands that Dahua is no longer what it used to be.
For example, when it comes to the intelligence system, Brother Ruan is no match for Zhao Yulin.
When it comes to land battles, Dahua has Yan Qi, Leng Wanshan, Shi Zhongxin, and Tao Shen.
If it's a water battle, Xu Tianhu will be the one on his own.
When it comes to weapons, Dahua takes the lead.
In such a comparison, what advantage can Annan take?
But the problem is that King De is stubborn and ambitious for Dahua.
Once the commotion gets bigger, Dahua will have no one to blame.
Yan Qi looked at Brother Ruan who was silent and patted his shoulder: "As long as King De is in power, there will be no solution to this problem. In the end, the people of Annan will definitely pay a heavy price."
"So, for the sake of the life and death of the people of Annan, you must quickly ascend to power and oust King De. Only in this way can you bring peace to the people of Annan."
Brother Ruan nodded with firm eyes: "I understand. Master Yan has pointed out a clear path for the people of Annan. I will definitely do my best to protect the people of Annan."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "I'm not wrong about the person. I can guarantee that as long as you come to power and drive King De out of power, I will give Annan financial help. At least, Annan will have a certain sense of superiority when facing Siam. , is this enough?"
Brother Ruan bowed to Yan Qi and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yan, for your generosity."
"It's a small thing."
Yan Qi laughed.
After the two discussed the overall situation, they felt relaxed and in a good mood.
Next, Yan Qifang told the key points.
"Master Ruan, you have to take me into the middle palace to see what's going on."
Brother Ruan frowned: "Master Yan wants to enter the middle palace?"
Yan Qi nodded: "Yes."
Brother Ruan asked: "Why did Lord Yan enter the middle palace? What exactly does Lord Yan want to do?"
Yan Qi's eyes were deep: "You can't say it. You just need to do what I say. Knowing too much will be detrimental to you. Because this is an exchange of interests between me and King De. You are on the outside. On the contrary, it is safe.”
Brother Ruan nodded: "I understand what Lord Yan said. Early tomorrow morning, I will take Lord Yan into the middle palace."
Yan Qi shook his head: "Absolutely not."
"Why?"
"The Middle Palace is the place where the emperor goes to court. If you take me into the Middle Palace, you will definitely make Li Gao disgusted. Although you have the right, you have just come to power, so you cannot be so arrogant."
"Master Yan, what should I do?"
Yan Qi smiled slightly: "I have a plan, come here."
Brother Ruan approached and listened to Yan Qi's words. He smiled slightly and said, "Master Yan, he is indeed very clever in using retreat to advance."
Yan Qi's eyes narrowed: "Study hard, it's all work."
