In the three hundred years since the Ming Dynasty was founded, the navy has never been defeated!
Of course it makes sense!
Zhu Ping'an stood on the deck and looked at the orderly warships arranged according to formations on the vast sea. He couldn't help but nodded. Although it was explained that after the ban on the sea, the scale and size of the warships of the Ming Dynasty had shrunk by more than half, but despite this
The warships that are more than 30 to 40 meters long floating on the sea still maintain an absolute advantage over the nearby Japanese pirates, North Korea and Southeast Asian countries with backward navigation.
Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu still has a lot of skills. Regardless of his level or the level of his generals or staff, being able to command this fleet in such an orderly manner, like an arm, shows that Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu still has a lot of skills.
Qualified to serve as Admiral Cao Jiang.
The fleet is divided into two parts, one is combat ships and the other is non-combat ships. There are more than twenty combat ships in total, varying in size. Li Tingzhu's flagship is the largest; there are eight non-combat ships, except Zhu Pingan and
The ship Li Shu was on tended to be outside the cruise ship, and the other non-combat ships were responsible for supply, rescue and other tasks. The flagship was a blessing ship about forty meters long, with two masts, three floors of cabins, and thick guardrails outside.
It is a scaled-down version of the city, and the ship is also covered with iron sheets. When at the dock, Zhu Pingan roughly counted the number of guns on the flagship. There were more than thirty artillery pieces on the flagship. Zhu Pingan did not know about the other weapons on the flagship, but they should be fire tubes.
, mainly firearms such as bird tubes, supplemented by cold weapons such as crossbows and spears.
In addition to Fu ships, combat ships also include small and medium-sized warships, such as Haicang ship, two-masted gun ship, Cangshan ship and other ships. 1.
The fleet was commanded by flags, gongs, drums and horns.
Not long after the fleet set sail, Zhu Pingan saw Li Tingzhu's flagship on the deck waving flags of different colors, and then the fleet followed the flag instructions in an orderly manner. The warships formed an arc in the distance.
Distributed in the front, guarding and warning; non-warships sailed behind, at a slightly slower speed, and maintained a considerable distance between each ship. This is because when sailing in the sea, if two ships are traveling in parallel and the distance is too close,
, easy to collide under the action of water flow pressure.
Zhu Ping'an looked at the warship in front of him on the deck, and could only vaguely see a row of black dots. However, he could see an outline of the nearby supply ship.
There was a compass during the day, star-finding at night, and nautical charts for sailing along the coast of Daming. The fleet sailed smoothly all the time. The fleet sailed until almost noon the next day. The wind direction changed, and the flagship signaled and temporarily stopped at the coast to rest.
.
It is impossible to anchor in the sea. You can only anchor and rest when you are close to the coast. With nautical charts and experienced sailors, they were not worried about finding a beach where the boat could stop. They quickly found a suitable coast to stop, and the fleet lined up.
Each anchored for a short rest.
This beach is a concave shape. There are strong winds and waves outside, but the sea here is relatively calm. There are several large seabirds gliding on the sea in the distance. The warm sunshine in the sky leaves a trail on the sea.
The golden light of the sea.
While resting, the Marquis of Linhuai also sent out six warships to patrol the offshore waters as a warning.
Zhu Pingan leaned against the railing, looking at the warship sent out by the Marquis of Linhuai to tow, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Miss, look, there is a fish." The little maid Baozi was lying on the railing. She looked at the water splashing under the boat, her face flushed with excitement.
"Really?" Li Shu also lit up her eyes.
"Yes, miss, at least it's this big." The little maid Baozi flushed her little face, stretched out her little hands and started gesturing, she was so excited.
Li Shu walked to the railing with her skirt in hand and looked at the sparkling sea under the boat with interest. The little maid Baozi stood beside Li Shu and stretched out her little hand to point out the place where the big fish jumped out.
When another fish flipped over the flowers, the two girls screamed excitedly.
"Let's go fishing. Let's go fishing, miss." Baozi's little maid suggested as she looked at the fish tumbling in the sea and blinked with bright eyes.
Children can be taught.
Li Shu looked at the little maid Baozi and nodded with satisfaction. In fact, the little maid Baozi said she also wanted to fish. When she was on the sea, Li Shu wanted to fish, but she couldn't fish because the boat kept moving. Now
After stopping the boat, she naturally couldn't miss the opportunity. Little Maid Baozi's suggestion of fishing just fell into Li Shu's heart.
So, Li Shu asked someone to take out the fishing gear she bought when she got on the boat, and install the fishing gear on the deck to prepare for fishing. However, they had never installed fishing gear before. They looked at the fish float, fishing line, fishhook, fishing rod and bait.
, his eyes went dark and he didn’t know what to do.
"Let me do it."
Zhu Pingan came over, squatted down, and skillfully placed the fish float on the fishing line, then tied three fishhooks to the fishing line, and then tied the fishing line firmly to the fishing rod.
After installing a set of fishing gear, the whole process took less than three minutes.
"Uncle, you are so awesome." Seeing Zhu Ping'an setting up the fishing gear so quickly, Baozi's little maid had a look of admiration on her face, with stars in her eyes.
Li Shu curled her lips in disapproval and rolled her eyes when she heard what Baozi's little maid said.
"You seem to be very disdainful, then you can do it yourself." Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an slightly raised the corners of his lips, put the installed set of fishing gear into the hands of the little maid Baozi, and then handed over the unsecured set of fishing gear.
Li Shu.
"Who cares? Just do it by yourself!" Li Shu glared at Zhu Pingan and said angrily.
"Miss, you can use this." After saying that, the little maid Baozi handed the fishing gear in her hand to Li Shu.
"I don't care if someone does it."
Hearing this, Li Shu glared hard at Little Maid Baozi, and then Little Maid Baozi shrank her head, not daring to stretch her paws any more.
However, installing fishing gear seems simple, but it is not easy, not to mention Li Shu, who has never touched the Yangchun water. Although Li Shu was very confident at first, she tried several times but could not install it properly. How could the fish float be fixed in place?
There were problems on the fishing line, so I had no choice but to turn to Zhu Pingan for help.
"Hey, you settled it for me." Li Shu walked to Zhu Pingan and said, although her face was slightly red, her arrogance did not diminish at all.
"Hello? Who is 'hello'? Where is he?" Zhu Ping'an deliberately turned his head and looked around, then looked at Li Shu with a fake look on his face.
It seems that it is quite interesting to tease a certain arrogant little girl and watch the arrogant and stinky girl blush.
"Zhu Ping'an, please fix it for me." Li Shu's pretty face turned redder than before.
"I want to be safe too, but someone just seemed a little disdainful." Zhu Pingan stretched.
"You" Li Shu glared at Zhu Pingan angrily.
Zhu Ping'an shrugged, indifferent to Li Shu's little roll of eyes.
Finally, after Li Shu blushed and told Zhu Pingan that you are so awesome, Zhu Pingan put the fishing gear on Li Shu with a satisfied smile. Of course, he also installed a pair of fishing gear on himself. (To be continued.)
