"My lord, do you want the two of them to continue fighting?"
"Of course! The previous battle was just a small test, and it did not hurt their muscles and bones. If we stop here, they will be able to recover soon. And this result is not what I want. have witnessed."
This is indeed true.
Only when the snipe and the clam fight desperately can the fisherman who watches on can benefit from it.
If you are just scratching the surface, then you have lost the point of sowing discord.
Yu Hai tasted the food and asked tentatively: "Master Qi, do you want to give Fusang some advice?"
"I do have this idea." Qi Yu nodded and said: "At certain times, helping the enemy with advice is not necessarily a bad thing. As long as it benefits yourself, why not do it?"
"Then, how do you plan to help, sir?"
"To put it bluntly, it is to teach the Fuso people how to smash the turtle shell of the Goryeo turtle ship! Then, it will complete the Fuso army's next landing operation, and finally, let them fight to the death."
Yu Hai asked again: "Have you ever thought of any clever ideas for this?"
"Nice trick? I've already thought of it! However, I don't know how to teach it to the Fusang people so that they can draw inferences." Qi Yu stroked his beard, frowned and sighed.
Hearing this, Yu Hai couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
Just what Mr. Qi meant by what he said, why do you feel that cracking the Goryeo turtle ship is as easy as pinching a chicken?
He couldn't hide his curiosity, and asked proactively: "Master Qi, how do you plan to break this turtle ship's strength?"
Qi Yu smiled lightly and said: "Actually, this is very simple. It can be done with just a few tricks. And there is more than one trick."
"I'm sorry for my stupidity, please explain in detail!"
"Easy to say..."
Next, Qi Yu explained the method he had conceived.
According to him, there are two ways to break the turtle shell.
The first is to create a sharp spear that is sharper than the opponent's and use it to break through the opponent's protective shield.
Didn't the Fuso people install a large impact-able anchor at the stern of the turtle ship?
Then, why can't the Fuso warship do it?
This is what is called repaying the other person with his own way.
Moreover, the displacement and tonnage of the Fuso warship are much larger than the Goryeo turtle ship. In the same collision mode, the side with the larger ship will undoubtedly have an advantage.
The truth is simple and straightforward.
The anchors of larger ships are thicker, longer, and every inch longer and stronger. Therefore, there is basically no suspense about using the big ship to defeat the small one.
This does not include the difference in collision force caused by the disparity.
The second method is more direct and is called the rough shield breaking method.
The emphasis is on the word rough.
how to say?
Take Qiongzhou's artillery as an example. If you want to smash the turtle shell of the Korean ship, you can use larger solid bullets to blast it.
With so many iron eggs passing by, the so-called shield was simply reduced to a decoration.
This is the truth.
However, the Fusang Army does not have sharp firearms like the Qiongzhou Army. Do you think this... counts?
There is nothing we can do!
Actually, not really.
If you don't have decent firearms, wouldn't you use a trebuchet or other weapons instead?
Although this looks a bit primitive, the effect is still very similar.
As long as the stone you use is big enough and heavy enough, you can smash the turtle shell of the Korean ship.
Although this method is simple, it is very practical.
practical?
Yes!
The basis is as follows.
First of all, the Korean turtle boats had a shallow draft and were driven by human oars. You can imagine how inadequate their mobility was.
The Fuso Army is exactly the opposite.
Their sails are designed very maturely, and they are quite flexible in their maneuvering and evasion. Therefore, they can completely use this to launch a counterattack.
As long as you hit it enough times, you'll have a chance of hitting the target.
actually!
The design of the turtle ship is a bit too defensive and counterattack, with almost no long-range attack power at all. Once the distance battle is opened, it will only be passively beaten.
Based on the above, it can be seen that defeating the Goryeo Turtle Ship is easy. As long as you use the right method, it is like chopping melons and vegetables.
However, how can these methods be conveyed to Monarch Fuso?
At present, the two sides are hostile to each other, and it is unlikely that they will send envoys there to teach.
In this way, the direct route is considered to be blocked.
But, at this time.
Yu Hai suddenly had a flash of inspiration and immediately took the plan to his heart.
"Master Qi, someone has a plan that may facilitate this matter."
"Oh? Tell me quickly!"
"Actually, it's not a special method. It's just following what you did not long ago."
"How to do it?"
Yu Hai smiled and said: "Nothing else, we just use newspapers and articles to convey our own external information. However, it is a little different from your previous method. This time I will release it."
Qi Yu was startled and said, "It's up to you?"
"Well! Compared to your status, I am much less sensitive. Even if I point out Fusang, Gao Li won't pay too much attention..."
"oh……"
According to Yu Hai's idea, he wanted to answer military-related questions from the virtual crowd in a neutral capacity as a 'military observer'.
On the surface, he was popularizing military knowledge, but in fact, he was providing advice to the Fuso people.
With the influence of "Qiongzhou Daily", it will definitely attract a lot of attention, and the Fuso people's spies are one of them.
In this way, this so-called strategy to defeat the enemy was successfully conveyed to Emperor Meisho.
"Well, this method is indeed good!"
"Sir, do you think it's feasible?"
“It’s feasible and appropriate!”
"In this case, I will write an article to use it to break the situation!"
After saying that, Yu Hai picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, and left in a hurry after finishing the last grasshopper.
Tonight, he has to work overtime to write an article, so how can he waste more time?
…
Early the next morning, the article "Answers to People's Military Questions" written by Yu Hai was published on the front page of "Qiongzhou Daily".
Although it is a blockbuster article, it has very few followers.
The common people felt that the war between Goryeo and Fusang had nothing to do with themselves and Qiongzhou.
It doesn't matter, so just do whatever you need to do.
Little did the melon-eaters know that the real readers were not them, but Emperor Meisho, who was facing across the sea.
Faced with the people's indifference, Yu Hai expressed his understanding. However, he felt a little uncomfortable when Master Qi turned a blind eye.
No matter what, you have to give me a compliment or two, right?
Of course, no.
In fact, it wasn't that Qi Yu was stingy and disapproving, but that his attention at the moment was all focused on Duan Zicheng's letter.
The letter mentioned that an 'oil seedling lake' was discovered in a place called Minas in Java.
Oil seedlings refer to the traces of oil in the earth's crust that appear on the ground. At the same time, they are also one of the important signs for finding oil deposits.
Just imagine, since it can become a large-scale lake, its reserve capacity and the difficulty of mining are self-evident.
Qi Yu thought about the letter for a long time before sighing: "Now, it's time to study the issue of oil exploration and utilization."
