Chapter 414
"Oh!" Hong Lianshuo deliberately lengthened his voice and looked at them.
"Have you seen the topographic drawings of the seaside yet? Didn't you say you want to make a sand table?" Han Qinhu's brown Tongren looked at her and said seriously.
"That's in my head. It's very easy to paint. It can be completed in a few days." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with high spirits and said, pondering for a while and said, "As for the sand table, this will take some time."
"Look! You have more important things to do." Lin Nanzheng quickly agreed.
"Speaking of this, we have to open a special room for maps and sand tables, and future military action plans will be discussed in a special place." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his dark eyes.
"They have moved this. There are so many rooms, just find a bigger one." Lin Nanzheng said relaxedly.
"It's getting cold. If we can't stop training in the open air, we also have to stay indoors during study time! We can't get out of the cold." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep and upright eyes and said.
"It should!" Han Qinhu nodded when he heard this, "Is there any more?"
"Here is the winter training plan I wrote. You should take a look first." Hong Lianshuo dragged the rattan box behind him, opened it, took out a stack of papers and handed it to them.
During the winter training, Han Qinhu looked up and opened the book, "The amount of training is a bit heavy, can brothers endure it?"
"I just want to break through the limits." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep and upright eyes and said, "Based on the results of these few months of training, I can!"
"Then let's follow this. The battlefield is much more dangerous than this." Han Qinhu nodded and responded.
"What's going on with cutting down trees?" Lin Nanzheng pointed at a clear line on the paper, "Ten thousand people, what are you going to do?"
"Cut down trees and build boats." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep and bright eyes and said.
"Do we need so many ships?" Han Qinhu looked at her in surprise and said.
"I used to worry about the enemy invading. What should I do with the two small counties next to the sea?" Hong Lianshuo closed his eyes and looked at them deeply and said, "I will never forget being hung on the head of Yandu City to threaten our people.
, and ended up being sunburned to death. I don’t want to experience it again.”
"So what does this have to do with shipbuilding?" Han Qinhu looked at her puzzled and asked, "Is it possible that the enemy is coming and the people in the city are floating on the sea."
"What if this person occupies the land and refuses to leave?" Lin Nanzheng said worriedly, "There is no food or drink on this boat. It is such a small boat that even one person cannot fit in it."
"There are islands near the seaside, large and small, which are their habitats." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bright black eyes and said, "Some larger islands have fresh water on them. As for the food fishermen, they can be like ants."
Move a little bit, and hide a little bit on the island."
"Pay attention to this, so that we can go on a killing spree without any scruples." Lin Nanzheng rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Building ships, the more the merrier!"
"And to bring peace to the world, there are not many ships in the north, and the south cannot do without ships." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his heroic eyebrows and said, "Don't forget the Battle of Chibi and the Battle of the Navy."
"Now we are slowly building ships. We have to prepare. There is also water transportation in the north." Han Qinhu's light brown Tong Ren looked at them and said seriously.
"So! You can't live without horses, and you can't live without boats." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep eyes.
"The horse is worth a thousand pieces of gold, and the boat is also worth a lot of money! Our wallets are empty!" Han Qinhu said sheepishly, "I am not the one throwing cold water on myself."
"I know, so we have to cut down the trees ourselves!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with gentle, jade-like eyes and said, "The biggest cost of the ship is wood, craftsmen! Patriarch Yang and the others are all craftsmen."
"There are quite a few of us who know how to work as carpenters, and they can all be employed." Lin Nanzheng said immediately after hearing this.
"No, no, shipbuilding is a very serious matter. How can you get started with just a little carpentry!" Cao Huaimin said quickly after hearing this, "It can't be such a child's play."
"Clan Chief Yang is supervising and strictly controlling the quality." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bright eyes and said, "Those who are unqualified will never pass Chief Yang's test."
"That's good." Cao Huaimin said with a long breath.
"We only need to find a solution for the iron nails." Hong Lianshuo frowned slightly and looked at them.
"This is easy to handle. The weapons we fight and collect will be iron." Lin Nanzheng said simply and easily.
"So, look, how much will this cost?" Hong Lianshuo said, looking at them with crooked eyebrows.
"If you look at it this way, it's easier to handle than a horse." Han Qinhu said in surprise, "A horse has to be taken care of carefully. It's very delicate."
"This ship is built, and there will be no big problem in using it for more than ten years." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with a smile and said, "Even if the ship can no longer be used for military purposes, it can still be used for civilian transportation."
"Our ship is too small! The southern navy all have big ships." Cao Huaimin said worriedly.
"Do you know the tactics of the wolf pack? The ants will bite the elephant to death." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his shining eyes and said.
"Wolves?" Han Qinhu's light-brown Tong Ren said softly, "Wolves hunt in groups. Do you mean to hunt with more people?"
"That's right! A small boat is maneuverable and flexible, but a big boat is bulky." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with deep and upright eyes and said.
"That ship is as big as a mountain and is rolling over it. No matter how many small boats you have, it will just crash into you and you won't be able to survive it!" Han Qinhu frowned and looked at her and said, "This really can't be taken for granted."
"I know." Hong Lianshuo raised his lips and smiled slightly when he heard this, "You will know how big this ship is by then."
"Aren't you afraid that someone will burn Red Cliff again?" Lin Nanzheng looked at her worriedly and said.
"Surround it and let him try to see who will be burned to death first?" Hong Lianshuo looked at him with a raised eyebrow and said.
"How did you appear on the river without anyone noticing and form a siege?" Han Qinhu frowned slightly and looked at her and said worriedly.
Lin Nanzheng said easily after hearing this, "Just take the nine counties of Jingxiang and go down the Yangtze River to Jiankang."
"I'm not a fool, how could I lose Jingzhou as carelessly as Guan Yu!" Han Qinhu's ginger-brown Tong Ren looked at them and said, "I have learned my lesson a long time ago."
"This is a difficult problem. The nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang must be heavily guarded. It will definitely not be easy to capture them." Lin Nanzheng frowned and said, "It will not be easy to pacify the south."
"Can we only take the Yangtze River to win the south?" Hong Lianshuo said, looking at them with bright peach blossom eyes.
"What else can we do if we don't cross the Yangtze River to capture the South?" Lin Nanzheng looked at her with wide eyes and asked.
