Chapter 1069 Uncle Teaching Nephew
"Uncle, the warship of the Song Empire is indeed sharp. I really dare not think about the scene of fighting such a warship on the sea." Li Xiang's nephew Yang Biao was an ordinary sailor on Li Xiang's flagship, so he was able to follow him.
Although the empire accepted Li Xiang and others, they would not be able to give a high position at once. If they want to get a high position, they have to work hard or achieve military achievements.
The reason why Zhao Hongyu made such an arrangement was that he did not want Chinese-born genetic people to have psychological fluctuations.
You should know that although most genetic people are cultivated through batches, some grassroots officers have independent and intelligent thinking.
Wouldn't it be harmful to their rule if they were resentful of their decisions?
That's why Zhao Hongyu made such a decision.
Fortunately, Li Xiang has a very understanding of Zhao Hongyu's decision, and the young people who want to join the Imperial Navy have also gained recognition through their own abilities.
So, there was no chaos on this issue.
Therefore, like Yang Biao, the pirates under Li Xiang, who were an ordinary naval soldier, were all scattered on each ship and started from the bottom.
Li Xiang chose a copycat Dutch-style dual-purpose warship to serve as his flagship.
Because he was the admiral of the navy in Jiuzhou, he used his authority a little and brought his nephew Yang Biao with him.
But that's all.
On the flagship, most of the people were Chinese soldiers from the Song Empire, and even all the officers were Chinese.
Therefore, Li Xiang could not take too much care of his nephew, so as not to be looked down upon by others and cause unnecessary trouble to his nephew.
Li Xiang knows his nephew very well. He is a good player at sea. After all, he has been with him since he was a child and has been mingling at sea.
Therefore, Li Xiang firmly believed that even without his own help, his nephew Yang Biao could still stand out.
At the same time, he also has an advantage in starting from the bottom, that is, he can get a good understanding of the warship structure of the Song Empire and where it is so powerful.
And when he was at the bottom, he could deal with soldiers. In the future, he would no longer reject him and would be able to make some good friends.
At this time, on the sea not far from Nagasaki, Li Xiang kept giving orders on his flagship deck, and more than 200 warships were cruising nearby. It turned out that this was a naval battle exercise that Li Xiang was doing.
Today, in Jiuzhou, in addition to the forty-nine imperial warships left by Zhao Hongyu, there are also many Ming-style tower ships, bucket ships and small sampans brought by Li Xiang.
It can be said that the ships of the Kyushu Navy are different, so if you want to have a certain combat power, you need to work together and understand each other.
The soldiers and captains who operate Ming-style building ships and bucket ships should know the speed and power of the imperial warships, and then sit in their minds.
Similarly, the soldiers and captains on the Imperial Battleship should also know the power and speed of the Ming-style tower ship, as well as some other parameters.
In this way, when a naval battle occurs, everyone will make some plans and arrangements based on these data.
As the commander, Li Xiang must understand this even more.
Otherwise, when a war happens and the arrangements you make are wrong due to some unknown understanding, it will be very inappropriate.
As an old pirate, Li Xiang is absolutely impossible to make a mistake at this point.
The wind is strong on the Japanese Sea in winter, and the sea breezes blow on your face, and even hurts a little.
Li Xiang was wearing a red imperial uniform, and her silver-white hair fluttered in the wind.
"You are right. The imperial warships are indeed powerful. It can be said that I, Li Xiang, have never seen such a powerful warship in my life. His power is beyond my imagination."
After hearing what his nephew said, Li Xiang asked the flag bearer on the pole to whip a flag, and then said to his nephew.
The day after Zhao Hongyu left, Li Xiang asked the navy to go to sea for exercise.
Because Amamishima defeated Wang Renzeng, Li Xiang believes that it is very likely that Nagasaki will be attacked by Zheng Zhilong in the near future.
Therefore, being able to know the power of the warships as soon as possible and the cooperation between the warships in the running-in warships will be more confident in dealing with Zheng Zhilong's attack in the future.
After all, there are some places where the battle at sea is the same as that on land, that is, one must rely on collective strength to fight. Individual heroism is not realistic and cannot occur.
You want to defeat enemies with hundreds of ships with one warship, which is unlikely to happen even in the storybook.
Therefore, if the navy is able to get together as soon as possible, it will be much easier to deal with Zheng Zhilong in the future.
After all, the warships of the Song Empire were very powerful.
The artillery on each ship opened his eyes to Li Xiang and the others.
If it were just a ship, Li Xiang and the others would not say anything.
However, the destructive power that the forty-nine warships can produce in naval battles is extraordinary.
The Ming-style tower ships and bucket ships he originally brought seemed to become ships that assist in combat in the future. Although this made him reluctant to leave, there was nothing he could do about it.
"Uncle, if you have such a warship in Jiuzhou, even if Zheng Zhilong comes, you will not be able to ask for anything. In fact, you don't have to be so nervous about this. With our current strength, although we dare not peek at the southeast coast, there is still no problem in self-protection."
As Li Xiang's nephew, Yang Biao is still a little younger after all.
As a young man, he would not be like an old man like Li Xiang, and would appear cautious and careful about some things.
As much as possible, Li Xiang will be safe.
But Yang Biao felt it was unnecessary.
Li Xiang shook her head when she heard this: "You can't say that, I must plan it well. At the same time, let the navy work together in a short time to deal with Zheng Zhilong's revenge." He turned around and looked at his nephew dressed in an ordinary soldier, and said to him with a serious face. "Although the warships at our hands are powerful, if we underestimate Zheng Zhilong, there will be some unexpected surprises."
Li Xiang has been beaten by Zheng Zhilong, so he attaches great importance to his old opponent.
This level of attention has exceeded many people's imagination.
However, as Li Xiang's nephew, Yang Biao expressed his understanding of this.
"Zheng Zhilong has many fleets, and there are many warships that can be used." Li Xiang looked at his nephew seriously and seriously. "Even if it is a warship like Franchiser, there are more than a dozen of them in his Zheng family's fleet. Not to mention the four or five hundred tower ships and thousands of fighting ships in his Zheng family's fleet."
It can be heard from Li Xiang's words that Zheng Zhilong's strength is quite powerful.
Even more powerful than the normal history of "he".
It seems that because of Zhao Hongyu, Zheng Zhilong was also affected.
And this impact is good for him at least now.
After all, his strength has become more than twice as strong as in normal history, right?
Unfortunately, Zheng Zhilong is not clear about this.
"Yes, the number of warships controlled by his old Zheng family's fleet is so many, it is simply the only one in the southeast. Even their warships are coming more than the coastal navy ships of the Ming Dynasty."
After hearing his uncle mention Zheng Zhilong's strength, Yang Biao sighed and echoed.
"Is this all over alone? Don't forget those vassals and the pirates under his command. These people can control a lot of ships. Therefore, Zheng Zhilong can gather together to engage in naval battles at one time, with more than one thousand tower ships alone, which is not the case with the Fujian Navy that he can mobilize."
As his old opponent, Li Xiang, is very clear about Zheng Zhilong's capital.
Yang Biao took a breath of air conditioning at this time.
Oh, that's not it.
If this calculation is made, the power of this guy Zheng Zhilong is really terrifying.
"Hiss!" Yang Biao took a breath of air conditioning and asked, "Zheng Zhilong is so powerful, can we deal with it?"
After being told by his uncle, Yang Biao's confidence is not as strong as before.
He is a young man after all.
Li Xiang looked at her nephew's reaction and sighed secretly in her heart.
In fact, Li Xiang told Yang Biao about Zheng Zhilong's true strength, and also analyzed Zheng Zhilong's internal division of strength to him, intending to cultivate this nephew well.
After all, my nephew is also a relative.
Unfortunately, Yang Biao was scared by Zheng Zhilong's strength as he mentioned, which disappointed Li Xiang a little.
For Li Xiang, a big man would rather be beaten to death than be scared to death.
Zheng Zhilong is indeed strong, but they are not weak either.
At least, after surrendering to the Song Empire, their strength was different from the past.
Moreover, even if Zheng Zhilong wants to come and cause trouble, he cannot be so open and upright.
After all, my identity is different now. If it is bad, it will be the national war.
Therefore, Zheng Zhilong will also be more reluctant, even if he really wants to cause trouble or avenge Wang Renzeng, but his side is not unable to deal with it.
"Biaozi! Remember, Zheng Zhilong's strength is not wrong. But you can't belittle yourself that we are not his opponents. In fact, he is also very afraid of us and is difficult to attack."
When Yang Biao heard his uncle say this, a curious look suddenly appeared on his face.
To be honest, if I had a bad head, I would be much worse than my uncle.
Because he can think of many things he could not imagine, just like now.
