Sharks are infested these days. When the fleet sails on the sea, there are groups of sharks waiting for food. They chop up large pieces of fish and throw them into the sea. You can see the sharks swarming through the clear water.
When they arrive, they compete to devour them.
The arrow cluster is made into an exaggerated barbed harpoon, and a rope is tied to the tail. Use the crossbow on the ship to launch it. Shoot it casually towards the place where the sharks gather in the sea. You can shoot a shark, and then use the winch to twist the rope.
, no matter how hard the shark struggled, it could not get rid of the harpoon that was shot into it. Finally, it was exhausted and was captured on the deck, waiting to be disemboweled.
The other sharks will not be frightened and run away. They chase the blood of their own kind and try to feast on the flesh and blood of their own kind, but they are rushed to be shot one by one.
Soon, scarlet shark blood rippled on the sea surface...
The deck was littered with captured sharks, with blood flowing and a fishy smell rising to the sky.
The soldiers carried short blades and neatly cut off the shark's fins, then disembowelled the shark, kept the liver, and discarded the rest of the internal organs, and then cut the fish meat into thin strips. The soldiers on the ship had eaten enough of this thing, so they had to use it first.
Pickle it with salt and dry it into dried meat when it reaches the shore. It can be cooked in soup, stir-fried or steamed.
Shark liver is the raw material for refining cod liver oil. Since the establishment of the Royal Navy, cod liver oil has become a standard ingredient in soldiers' meals. These soldiers have been practicing, sailing, and fighting at sea for many years. Nutritional supplements must be paid attention to, otherwise the number of soldiers will be seriously reduced.
Fortunately, the Navy has been victorious in consecutive battles in the past two years, and its influence has spread to every corner of the ocean. It can be said to be the most "generous" among all the arms of the Tang Dynasty. Chicken, duck, fish, meat and seasonal vegetables can be made with great effort, and every time
Shore's replenishment of food can arouse the envy, jealousy and hatred of all the top soldiers in the army...
The status of the navy is very high among the people. Almost all men in the Tang Dynasty are proud to be a navy soldier. The food, clothing, weapons and equipment of the navy are something everyone admires and yearns for.
Cod liver oil, which must be consumed every day, has attracted ordinary people and even wealthy families to flock to it.
The refining of cod liver oil is very simple. Shred the shark liver and steam it directly on the steamer. Then let the steamed turbid oil-water mixture stand for a period of time. The clear oil on the upper layer is cod liver oil.
This even opened an open source project for the navy. Although cod liver oil is good, it cannot be used as food. Fang Jun hired dozens of wandering doctors in Jiangnan to vigorously promote the various benefits of cod liver oil.
It treats night blindness, helps the elderly supplement calcium and improve osteoporosis, and accelerates the development of children's bones and teeth... Anyway, it was so popular that it set up shops in major towns in Jiangnan and sold it at high prices.
It's just that the scale of the navy's shark fishing is limited, and it can't refining it in large quantities. The lofty goal of improving the quality of the whole people cannot be achieved. It can only sell it as a luxury product at a high price, and all the money earned is used as military pay. The navy does not
Keep every penny.
Improved treatment, adequate nutrition, diligent training, excellent ordnance, and high morale...
The best virtuous cycle has been formed within the Navy, and its combat effectiveness has been continuously improved.
Although the cavalry, infantry and other arms are envious and envious, the navy itself has special conditions and cannot be replicated. The famous generals of the Tang Dynasty drooled when they saw the navy's daily progress and gold, and their red eyes looked at the high morale and fierce combat power.
But it is impossible to imagine.
For overseas countries, the Royal Navy is an invincible existence. Its impressive achievements in Southeast Asia have already shocked everyone, and it has even been exaggerated by the people as an invincible and invincible division. Therefore, when the Navy circled most of the Honshu Island
When the circle arrived at Nambajin, there were actually Japanese civilian slaves on the shore, bowing to the navy ship from a distance...
The Japanese are despicable and cruel, but they respect the strong. This shows the clues.
At the pier of Nambazu, there were soldiers left by Wang Xuance to support them. The fleet docked, Fang Jun and the soldiers disembarked, and were taken to Tennoji Temple not far away.
It is said that this temple was built by Prince Shotoku. At that time, Prince Shotoku, who believed in Buddhism, led his loyal minion Soga Umako to go to war with the conservative Mononobe Moriya. He once made a great wish to the four heavenly kings of the Buddha's heavenly soldiers and generals.
After winning this battle, they built temples and built golden statues for the four heavenly kings. Later, with the help of the Soga family, the Mononobe clan was destroyed and Buddhism became popular throughout the country. Prince Shotoku also kept his promise and built this temple...
…
Tennoji Temple is built on a hill called Aroryo not far from Namba Tsu. The terrain is not high, surrounded by trees and gurgling streams, and the scenery is very beautiful. The central gate, pagoda, golden hall, and lecture hall of Tennoji Temple are arranged in a straight line from north to south.
This kind of Jialan layout imitated the Chinese architectural style at that time, which made Fang Jun feel quite friendly.
Different from the temples around the world that have escaped from the mortal world and have no regard for the secular world, Tennoji has more symbolic and political significance. At the beginning of its establishment, it established four academies. In addition to the dojo "Jingtian-in" for teaching and practicing, it also established a temple for treating patients.
The "Medicine Hospital" that provides soup kitchens and medicines for the sick, the "Therapeutic Hospital" that takes in the sick, and the "Beitian Hospital" that takes care of the elderly and the weak. Almost every day, believers sing praises to Prince Shotoku because of the benefits they have benefited from.
Fang Jun was very dissatisfied when he saw that the temple was still full of incense even after being garrisoned by the Tang army. The safety of people coming and going was not guaranteed, and the air filled with incense was not good. He immediately ordered all the monks in the temple to be expelled, and each person was given a few coins.
A steamed bun told them to find another job, and then closed the temple to serve as a temporary official office.
As for the civilian slaves who later gathered on the dock at the foot of the mountain to protest, Fang Jun waved his hand and the Tang army fired sticks to disperse them. Occasionally, those stubborn ones would be found missing inexplicably the next day by their neighbors, relatives and friends, and they were not seen alive.
People die without seeing their bodies...
At first, the Tang army was a little worried about this. After all, this was the territory of the Japanese. Wouldn't it be troublesome if they were so arrogant and domineering and aroused public resentment?
But randomly everyone was relieved. The expected fierce resistance did not appear at all. Facing the Tang army with brutal force and arrogant style, the Japanese lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes and were more docile than rabbits. They even killed people without saying a word, and then killed everyone in their homes.
They took out the rice, grains, meat and vegetables and sold them to the Tang army to make money.
Even Fang Jun was sighing. Looking at the enthusiastic Namba Tsuwabi, he couldn't help but think of the legendary army in his previous life...
The Fourth Division is one of the oldest divisions in the Japanese army and is composed of vegetable vendors from Osaka.
According to its establishment, the Fourth Division is a well-known Class A division, a main combat force, with four regiments under its jurisdiction, equipped with first-class weapons and equipment, and can be called the "elite" of the Japanese army. However, not long after its establishment, it became a "useless waste".
"The reputation spread throughout the entire Japanese army, especially the Eighth Regiment, the core unit of the Fourth Division. Because of its repeated defeats in the Russo-Japanese War, it was nicknamed the "Eighth Regiment that is not afraid of defeat"...
Later, the Fourth Division was assigned to the Kwantung Army. When the Soviet Union and Japan were fighting at Nomenkan on the Sino-Mongolian border, the Kwantung Army mobilized troops to participate in the war. As a result, the Second Division traveled four days from Hailar to Nomenkan, and the Fourth Division
However, the group walked for eight full days, and a large number of people fell behind.
Coincidentally, on the day the advance team of the Fourth Division arrived at the front line, the Soviet Union and Japan announced a ceasefire...
When the news came, the laggard officers and soldiers of the Fourth Division quickly followed up as if they had taken a powerful pill. Even many of the officers and soldiers left behind rushed to the front line "sickly" while complaining with great frustration that they had no chance to fight.
So on the way back, the 4th Division, fully loaded with troops and full of energy, became the most powerful force in the Japanese army. However, the 2nd Division, which was the first to arrive on the battlefield, lost its armor and armor, was full of wounded soldiers, and had low morale...
…
At that time, each department of the Japanese army had its own characteristics in its farewell speeches. For example, when the battle situation was good for the Second Division, it would say "the military's fortunes will last forever."
At that time, they often said "protecting the body is the most important thing". What does this temple mean? Translated, it means "preserving your precious body", "the body is the most important", or simply "preserving life first"...
The lax military discipline of the Fourth Division became a constant problem for the top brass of the Japanese army. Even Yamashita Tomofumi, nicknamed the "Malay Tiger", once served as the division commander, but there was nothing he could do about the lax and lax military discipline of the Fourth Division.
When Japan surrendered, the Fourth Division was resting and recuperating near Bangkok, Thailand. Unlike other Japanese troops who refused to accept the fate of defeat and sometimes had soldiers disembowel themselves, the Fourth Division's surrender and return to China went extremely quickly and smoothly. When everyone's face was rosy,
When the healthy officers and soldiers of the Fourth Division appeared at the Japanese port, the malnourished and haggard Japanese in the local area were very surprised.
Statistics show that the Fourth Division had the fewest battle deaths and the most complete equipment and supplies among the Japanese Southern Army.
The US military's evaluation of this division is "peace-loving"...
The Fourth Division also immediately showed this "characteristic". On the second day after returning home, some officers and soldiers ran to the U.S. military barracks and neatly set up stalls to sell war souvenirs.
Looking at the Japanese people in front of him who are constantly selling local specialties with great interest, Fang Jun is also amazed. From Namba Tsu to Osaka, what remains unchanged is the eternal belief of the people of Osaka to make a fortune...
How can people who love peace so much impose a knife blade on themselves?
They must be trained well so that they can travel to every inch of the Japanese land and bring the prosperity, wealth and strength of the Tang Dynasty to every Japanese person...
