Although theoretically speaking, the water surface and depth of the Yangtze River can carry large ships of this size. In theory, even real seventh-generation ships can enter the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
The problem lies in the currents of the reefs and the passability of the former waterway. The boats that sailed up the Yangtze River in the past did not need to pay attention to the reefs that were one or two meters underwater.
However, if you switch to a seventh-generation ship, the draft at full load may be four to five meters. Many places that could have been passed before now have to be bypassed or find ways to re-find the route.
As a result, the previous shipping charts were no longer needed, so Lu Jun waved his hand and said that seventh-generation ships would not sail into the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers.
But this is not a big problem for Gan Ning. For things like reefs, find a hydrologist who is proficient in water potential and rely on the changes in the Yangtze River water to tell the difference. Just throw it and attack with a legion. Anyway, Gan Ning must do it this time.
Driving the seventh-generation ship into the Yangtze River, let the fellow villagers in Jingchu feel the huge gap like a chasm between the two sides.
Zhou Yu is so cool and self-aware. He has seen seventh-generation ships, and was even fooled by Lu Jun into investing in seventh-generation ships. Naturally, he knows that the natural dangers of the Yangtze River are nothing to seven-generation ships, but those who have never seen seventh-generation ships
The Jingxiang navy is still obsessed with the past where northerners rode horses and southerners took boats. It’s time for them to wake up.
I think the Yangtze River natural barrier is very reliable, isn't it because I have never seen a seventh-generation ship? This time Gan Ning plans to sail in and let the people of Jingchu feel what natural barriers and tactics are, but they didn't sleep in front of my Xingba
Awake.
Even if I am a seventh-generation ship without weapons or water warfare, it can rush from the north to the south of the Yangtze River and transport 2,000 fully armed men there. When I see that there are not eight ships behind me, I can use the transport at once.
One integrated cavalry and one integrated infantry corps can still carry enough baggage.
What's more, seeing that I don't have naval guns on the bow, I just bully you into not being able to install them. With that power, one shot will sink the ship, and ten companies will be wiped out in ashes. I don't envy it. However, you can't use it at all. There are no seventh-generation ships, just your broken sampans.
, even if it is installed and launched, it will be overturned by the huge reaction force.
In short, with this idea in mind, Gan Ning led his fleet to fight in from the Yangtze River. Eight seventh-generation ships lined up in a row, with a fierce momentum. With the Xingba as the flagship, they encountered reefs all the way and were blown to pieces on the spot. The powerful
The power made the Jingchu navy stunned when they saw the seventh-generation ship.
However, in the end, those who should be shocked were also shocked, but the reef did not kill Gan Ning, but the rapid water in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, which he had not paid attention to at first, killed Gan Ning.
The boat was too big and the draft was too deep, so even if we rowed hard, we could only keep moving forward. In the end, we had to use trackers to pull the boat.
So much so that Gan Ning boasted about sailing to Zhou Yu to let him experience the combat effectiveness of the two battleships that were specially trained by the Nanyang Zhang family among the eight seventh-generation ships. However, before he could see Zhou Yu, he had already failed.
.
There was no way. At this time, Zhou Yu was already sailing near Jiangxia and Hanyang on the Han River to Nanyang with the help of a small boat. Gan Ning, who had already fallen into the funny mode, wanted to catch up with Zhou Yu by using a big boat. He could only think too much.
Well, after all, there is really no way for such a big ship to enter the Han River.
When he arrived at the intersection of the Han River and the Yangtze River, Gan Ning already knew that he had made a mistake. Even when he looked on the shore, he could already see some shadowy Jiangdong scouts hiding in the bushes. It was obvious that Zhou Yu's side had been closed down.
When I got the news about Gan Ning, I waited to see what Gan Ning had fun with.
But Zhou Yu didn't go too far. Although he was waiting to see what Gan Ning had to do, he left a water village at the confluence of the Han River and the Yangtze River. There were many small boats in it. He also made an agreement with the people stationed there to wait.
When Gan Ning was stuck in the Han River, he lent the ship to Gan Ning. To be honest, the seventh-generation ship really couldn't enter the Han River.
The twenty-five-foot-long seventh-generation ship uses standard units, which is the length that Chen Xi converted to a mercury column, which is more than eighty meters. It will only suffer some losses from the reefs on the Yangtze River, and enter the Han River.
, then I really didn’t wake up.
So when Gan Ning went through a lot of hard work to sail the Xingba from the middle reaches of the Yangtze River to the Han River, Gan Ning was a little confused. He really didn't dare to drive the ship in. The Han River became smaller and smaller as it went north. As for him now
The ship we sailed, let alone bumped into a reef, even ran aground, which was normal.
"Xingba, I told you before not to bring in the seventh-generation ships, just the fifth-generation ships." Taishi Ci looked at Hanshui with a headache.
"If we don't bring in the seventh-generation ships, all of us combined can't defeat Zhou Gongjin." Gan Ning said with a twitching corner of his mouth.
Just don't bow your head, just don't give in. The cavalry and infantry are all crushed, but their navy can't beat them. No, this is absolutely not possible. Although Gan Ning knows very well, even if he replaces the seventh-generation ship, he may not be able to defeat Zhou Yu.
, but if Zhou Yu knows this kind of thing, the people below will definitely not know.
Just looking at the size of this ship is enough to make most of the navy in Jingxiang despair.
"But they know that we have seventh-generation ships, and Zhou Gongjin, let's put it this way, do you think he is the kind of person who doesn't know the destiny?" Taishi Ci said with a slight headache looking at Gan Ning who refused to admit defeat.
From the beginning, he didn't want the seventh-generation ship to enter the Yangtze River and bully others. This was completely unnecessary. Sun Ce bowed his head. There was no need for a stalemate.
"The problem is that only the upper echelons of Jiangdong know the use of such a large ship. Only by making everyone feel the difference can they understand that it is actually Zhou Gongjin who has been protecting them, not that the generals will leave without a fight as the lower echelons of Jingchu think.
Surrender." Gan Ning said angrily.
"What should we do?" Taishi Ci said speechlessly. He already understood what Gan Ning meant. The ship entered the Yangtze River not to intimidate Zhou Gongjin, but to intimidate those in Jingchu who had never seen the world and thought that the natural dangers of the Yangtze River were invincible.
The bottom of Jingchu.
"Langzai, don't we still have two carrier ships? I said before that those people from the Nanyang Zhang family are stupid, but now it's proven that those who sail ships are really not as good as those who build ships. Zhou Gongjin still wants to watch me have fun, hehehe~
"Gan Ning folded his arms and stepped on the side of the boat.
In fact, Gan Ning sailed the big ship into the Yangtze River mostly to show his favor to Zhou Yu. In the year since he returned from the south, Gan Ning had almost figured out the situation in the Central Plains.
If nothing else happens, Zhou Yu will be his immediate boss in the future. Regarding this, Gan Ning may have had some dissatisfaction before. Now, after participating in the Malacca naval battle, he saw Zhou Yu learn everything he needed to learn in just a few glances.
, Gan Ning finally understood what talent was.
Coupled with Zhou Yu's performance all the time, Gan Ning really has no dissatisfaction with the other party as his immediate boss.
After all, nothing can convince generals more than military ability in war years. Not to mention Zhou Yu's good character and generous nature, even if he is young, energetic and arrogant, there are many people who are willing to bow their heads based on his ability.
After all, an excellent commander is not concerned with the lives of just one or two people. The victory he brings can benefit tens of millions of people. Naturally, there will never be fewer people willing to follow him.
Before the Battle of Northern Xinjiang, Zhou Yu was at best a local general. Many people, such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, were not convinced. But after the Battle of Northern Xinjiang, Zhou Yu was basically regarded as an imperial general, not to mention that he was destined to be one of his own now.
Even enemies will recognize his abilities.
By the way, now that Zhou Yu is commanding the army, he no longer has as much voice as before. He already has the power to make decisions on the battlefield.
Gan Ning is a kind of weirdo who looks like a second-rate guy and does things like a second-rate guy, but his brain is not that of a second-rate guy.
Therefore, Gan Ning sailed the seventh-generation ship into the Yangtze River essentially to give Zhou Yu a platform. The people in Jingchu Province were chirping, saying that they would surrender without a fight. This is a seventh-generation ship. Each one is worth you.
Fleet, come and try.
Although it is not appropriate to say that big is beautiful, a warship of this size can roam freely on the Yangtze River without any problem. The height of this ship is destined to lead Jingchu to be proud of jumping off the ship.
It is very difficult to implement.
As for bed crossbows, trebuchets, fire oil tanks and other attacks, to be honest, the bed crossbows currently equipped on Jingchu ships may not be able to penetrate the structurally strengthened and frame-strengthened decks of seventh-generation ships. On the contrary, the fixed heavy crossbows on seventh-generation ships
, one shot can explode ships below the fifth generation ship.
Cloud gas defense techniques, cloud gas tactical development, cloud gas drive and other technologies are not suitable for warships like the Han family. In the words of shipbuilding experts and mechanical experts, those things are at most a reference. To put it bluntly, the Han family's ships are
One advantage is that it is sturdy!
Since you have chosen this advantage, then go all the way and imitate other people's things. If you can't find your own way, you will be rubbish in this life. Not to mention the vastness of China, where the smartest people are fighting in battles and fighting in sea battles. Get out of the way.
The uncles will customize a combat method for you.
Gan Ning was speechless, and then he watched the Zhang family bring a group of big guys, and took the cloud technology that Gan Ning had, and began to conduct tactical research. In the end, he found that Kushan's naval warfare technology was perfect, and it seemed that it did not exist in the world.
The possibility of defeating the opponent within the opponent's advantage range.
Then a group of people fell silent, and after a long period of time, they admitted that Da Yuezhi had changed its skin. After going public through a backdoor scheme, it really became an empire. Then the Zhang family invited a group of big guys. Anyway,
Whoever works in this industry doesn’t know that if you let your word go, you will definitely get it done, so I lowered my composure and hired a group of people, and finally achieved overtaking in a corner.
Since we couldn't beat the opponent with our skills and tactics, we tried our best to increase our combat effectiveness, so we made a lot of effort to build the main cannon for Gan Ning's Xingba.
Combined with some of the remaining technologies after the explosion of the main gun of the seventh-generation ship, it has the effect of mobilizing the essence of heaven and earth and the internal energy of warriors, and then attaching it to the crossbow arrows, firing a super powerful strike with more than five times the speed of sound and accompanied by energy attacks.
