Zhao Xuanyi walked outside the room and called Shen Wei over, "Brother Shen, have all the ships been brought back now?"
"Nearly a hundred were brought back!" Shen Wei said.
"Well, that's about it. How long is each boat?"
"About fifteen to twenty steps!"
"Very good, I found similar ships. I tied four ships together horizontally and nailed them with wide and thick wooden boards! Then connect all the ships end to end vertically. At least ten ships must be connected vertically. Only in this way can we get The other side!"
Shen Wei nodded in agreement, "But...the opponent will definitely use rockets, how can we resist?"
"How much more wood do I have Tang Yue get?"
"There are many, not to mention thousands, but also eight hundred!"
"Very good, now listen carefully to what I say and ask Su Xiaoding and Nangong Che to make me a palm-thick wooden board. The width depends on the condition of the board. The height should at least exceed Tang Tianli's height!"
"When these planks are finished, nail them vertically to both sides of the finished chain battle bed. The bottom should be as deep as the bottom of the ship, and the top should be higher than the soldiers' heads. Two rows of wooden walls should be made on both sides of the warship. As long as the board is thick enough, even if a rocket hits it, it won't be able to burn through the board for a while!"
"In this way, we can send the Qilin Guards over first and deal with all the opponent's archers. As long as the opponent's arrows cannot reach our warships, we can try our best to let the soldiers cross and establish a position on the other side. As long as If we repel their advance troops, we can safely cross the Red Gate Pass!"
When Shen Wei heard Zhao Xuanyi's plan, he nodded seriously, "If I follow your plan, young master, it must be fast! Enough people must get over before the war burns the warship, otherwise there will not be enough time!" "
"Yes, time is always the key to success or failure. Let Su Xiaoding and Nangong Che take action now!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Yes!" Although this plan is not very reliable, you can give it a try! At least they can land on the beach. As long as they reach the opposite land, the Qilin Guards really have no fear of anyone when fighting on flat ground!
After receiving Zhao Xuanyi's order, Su Xiaoding and Nangong Che immediately led tens of thousands of people to start building the warship that Zhao Xuanyi mentioned! Connect all the ships together, then use wooden boards to nail the inside of the hull, and then use thick wooden boards to build wooden walls around the left and right edges of the ships. This way, the two rows of ships in the middle are the safest places, as long as the wooden walls are thick enough. , the middle is the safe zone!
When Zhu Wenyu and Lan Chuyin heard that Zhao Xuanyi had built a warship, they walked out of the room and took a look at the scene. They saw four ships connected sideways, with thick wooden boards blocking them on the left and right, and between the wooden boards. The gap is less than a finger, very tight!
And when all the warships are connected, it will be like a suspension bridge, or a suspension bridge with walls, and there are iron rings and hooks at the front of the ships. They can be transported separately at ordinary times, but at critical times, they can be hung together, like It's the same as Cao Cao's iron cable ship!
After Zhu Wenyu read it, he nodded with satisfaction, "Brother, your plan is indeed good, but there is another place where the defense is too weak!"
"There?"
"Front! There are shields on your left and right, but if the enemy shoots arrows from the other side, wouldn't we be able to block it?" Zhu Wenyu said.
Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "Prince, I have thought about this question of yours a long time ago, so I plan to make some changes on the first platoon warship. The other warships will put baffles on the left and right, and the front of the first ship, and the top , nail the left and right sides with thick wooden boards, so that only the back can allow people to enter!"
"Its purpose is no other than to actively attract the enemy's arrows. When all the soldiers start from the rear and reach the front warship, it won't take long at all. When the time comes, the front baffle will be pushed open and the baffle will fall. On the water, it can also be used as a bridge, and soldiers can directly step onto the land on the other side!" Zhao Xuanyi said with confidence!
After listening to Zhao Xuanyi's words, Zhu Wenyu slowly walked to the four warships in the front row. He saw that this warship had been built like a cage. The front, top, left and right sides were all nailed with thick wooden boards. It's like a fully armored helmet, and the only door is
The rear, and only your own people can reach the rear!
And Zhu Wenyu saw a hole the size of a fist under the wooden planks outside all the warships. "Brother, what is this for?"
"It's used for rowing, so the oars are on the outside and the people are on the inside of the board, which can protect them!"
Seeing such a warship, Zhu Wenyu raised his thumb and said, "As expected of the Lord Protector of the Ming Dynasty. You are the only one who can come up with such a shocking idea. Very good, great! With this warship pontoon, We can reach the other side directly, and then destroy their archers, and we can directly seize the position on the other side!"
"This is a quick battle to land on the beach, so no other teams can be allowed to join this time. The first ones to cross the sea and seize the enemy's position must be my Qilin Guards. I am not exaggerating here. In terms of individual combat capabilities , it must be my Qilin Guard!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Indeed, I think there is no doubt about this. Then brother, what are our plans next?" Zhu Wenyu asked.
"Now that the warship is ready, let's not wait any longer. Everyone has a rest today. Tomorrow night we will secretly transport the ship to Chimen Pass. When we can see the land on the opposite side early in the morning the day after tomorrow, we will launch an attack! But the specifics are We still need to discuss the plan!"
Zhao Xuanyi looked around, "Sun Yan, immediately order all soldiers to rest from now on. All generals and above will follow me to the Chinese army's tent to make plans!"
"Yes!" everyone nodded and shouted.
Everyone came inside the Chinese army's tent. Zhao Xuanyi pointed at the map and began to say, "Our plan is very simple. It is divided into several parts. First, General Tang Yue, I need your Far Eastern Army!"
After Tang Yue heard this, he immediately nodded, "Your Majesty, please tell me!"
"You have also seen that the left and right sides of my warship were nailed with wooden planks, but I had people punch holes as big as fists under the planks in order to extend the oars. After all, after the warship enters the water, it will definitely hit the water. It floats downstream, so someone needs to use a paddle to glide to the other side!"
"But I don't have a naval force in the Qilin Guard. I remember that many of your Far Eastern Army can row, so I need their help. You must slide the warship to the other side, otherwise the boats behind it cannot be launched into the water, and our pontoon bridge cannot be built!" "
"I have calculated that one row of warships requires eight rowers, and ten rows of warships require eighty men. These eighty men must keep sliding, even if the flames from the opponent's rocket fall on them. , can’t escape! I have to die on the warship, I need these eighty dead soldiers!"
After Tang Yue heard this, he immediately understood that if these eighty people went out, they would never come back, but this was a war, and dying might be the most normal thing!
A serious expression appeared on Tang Yue's face, "Don't worry, my lord, I will immediately select eighty dead soldiers. Even if the warship is destroyed and swallowed by flames, I guarantee you that these eighty people will never run away!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded, "Please!" Then he looked at Wang Yunlong and Wang Yunchuan, "You two brothers, bring me a thousand Qilin Guards with the best shooting skills. When the time comes, just start taking action, and you, the thousand people, will stand on the shore for me." , when you find an enemy on the opposite side, shoot an arrow directly!"
"There is a gap of more than a hundred steps between the two sides of the strait. Our Tianyi Bow can shoot up to three hundred steps. Remember! As long as the Qilin Guards board the ship and charge, your arrows cannot stop. Don't be afraid of exhaustion. You must use firepower to suppress the opponent. Don’t dare to come out!”
"Yes!" Wang Yunlong and Wang Yunchuan shouted. The two brothers are better with bows and arrows than anyone else, so they naturally know how to fight!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Liu Bo, "You lead the shield bearers in front of my Qilin Guards, and they shoot arrows from behind. Your responsibility is to let the shield bearers prevent the arrows from the opposite side from hurting my Qilin Guards. As long as both sides shoot arrows, they will be exposed to the opposite side." Under their sight, it’s up to you to protect them!”
Liu Bo cupped his fists and said, "Don't worry, my lord, even if there is no shield, my brother will use his body to block the arrows from the opposite side!"
"This sounds encouraging! Okay!" Zhao Xuanyi turned around with a smile, looked at Tang Tianli, walked over and patted Tang Tianli on the shoulder, "Brother, I think you will be responsible for this charge!"
Tang Tianli grinned, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates have been with you for so many years. Weren't you at the forefront of that battle? This time I will lead the brothers to launch an attack."
Front! must……? "
Before Tang Tianli finished speaking, someone in the crowd said, "My lord, can you leave this matter to your subordinates?"
When everyone heard this, they were shocked and wondered who was speaking. Actually asking for a fight at this time? When everyone turned their heads, the person speaking was none other than the new batch of young generals from Qilin Guard, Xiaohu!
Zhao Xuanyi smiled after seeing it. Xiaohu and Huangshan were both the best among the Qilin Guards. He was very familiar with them both. One was Tang Tianli's right-hand man, and the other was Wang Yunlong's favorite general! And this little tiger is Tang Tianli's right-hand man!
"Xiaohu, what are you doing?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"My lord, my subordinate is not very talented and wants to take charge of this first attack!" Xiaohu said with a domineering look on his face.
Tang Tianli glared at Xiaohu, "I've rebelled against you, just stay back if you have nothing to do!"
"No, General, I have been under your command for three years, you should be aware of my abilities!"
"You performed well, but this is a big battle. You have never experienced it. Why are you just joining in the fun?"
"That's not right, Duke. I am confident that I can win the opposite position. We can't give these old guys every good thing, right?"
"Who are you calling old? I'm not even married yet!" Tang Tianli shouted.
"Hahaha...!" Everyone laughed!
Zhao Xuanyi also smiled, and then came to Xiaohu. Looking at this young man with a tiger head and a tiger head, Zhao Xuanyi smiled and patted Xiaohu on the shoulder, "How old are you?"
"Seventeen!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded after hearing this, "Cheng, I was only seventeen years old when I guarded Huangling City. There are many talented people in our Qilin Guard, and they are so ambitious at such a young age. But Xiaohu, are you really ready for this?" ? This is a big war, no jokes allowed!"
Xiaohu clasped his hands and said, "My lord, the Qilin Guard has never lost!"
This sentence ignited the flames of war in Zhao Xuanyi's heart. He nodded vigorously and his eyes became very serious, "Okay, Xiaohu, listen to the order!"
Xiaohu immediately knelt on the ground and said, "My subordinate is here!"
"I order you to lead a thousand people to complete this beach landing mission. No matter what method you use, you must reach the other side, build a position for me on the other side, repel the opponent's vanguard, and allow the large force to cross the sea safely. !」
"I obey my orders!" Xiaohu shouted loudly!
Tang Tianli walked over and said, "My lord, is this...appropriate?"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "Old Tang, we must give young people some opportunities! What's more, he is the soldier you brought out. Believe in him and our own Qilin Guards!"
Tang Tianli turned to look at Xiaohu, with a smile on his face, "Boy, this is not a joke, let alone a training. Use your full strength! If you can't take the position on the other side, I will kill you!"
"Don't worry, general, I will definitely win the position and I won't embarrass you!" Xiaohu shouted loudly.
"Okay! This is the plan for now, while the other teams will follow behind. Once the positions on the shore are captured, everyone will immediately cross the sea. After arriving on the other side, occupy a strong position, and then slowly transport grain, grass and horses. Everyone understands "?" Zhao Xuanyi shouted.
"Got it!" everyone shouted!
"There will be another chapter later. Please be patient and wait. Wait no matter what the hurry! As I said, there is nothing you can do about it even if Jesus comes!"
