Datang: At the beginning, I wanted to rebel against my father-in-law

Chapter 254 The best defense is attack!

"It would be unrealistic to temporarily strengthen coastal defense now. The national treasury has not been filled to that extent, and even if we have enough money, it will take a lot of time to temporarily build it now!" Li Jing hesitated for a long time, and finally stood still frowning. out.

His idea is very realistic, the Japanese pirates' rebellion is a temporary occurrence, even if the coastal defense is to be strengthened, it must not be cramped now.

In case a large amount of manpower and material resources are invested, it cannot achieve its due effect, and there are some accidents in other places, then the situation in Datang that has just settled down is very likely to become turbulent again.

"This is the second thing. If we suddenly start to strengthen the coastal defense on a large scale, it will be tantamount to revealing a message to all the enemies, that is, they have indeed identified our weaknesses!" Wei Zheng nodded thoughtfully.

Regarding this matter, everyone had different opinions, and Li Shimin also felt very headache. The reason why he said this matter in public was to find a reasonable solution.

finally.

He still looked helplessly at Su Feng. According to the ability of the other party, these methods should not be the only ones, and perhaps better methods are yet to come.

"Master Changsun, how is the production of the firecrackers studied last time?" At this moment, Su Feng suddenly saw Changsun Wuji asking another question.

Changsun Wuji didn't quite understand. He instinctively froze for a moment, and then nodded seriously, "After the prince mentioned last time, the follow-up has already started mass production!"

"There is no problem in terms of technology, and the firecrackers made are also very powerful. The meaning of the prince is..."

Having said that, Changsun Wuji seemed to understand what Su Feng meant.

"What does the lord mean...to mass-produce an armed army of firecrackers?"

Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin and others also thought about it. Mass production of such weapons can indeed quickly improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

but.

It may not be enough to achieve the effect they want only by relying on firecrackers!

"Actually, the production principle of the cannon is the same as that of the firecracker. You only need to enlarge the relevant parts in proportion, just like the transformer I asked you to produce not long ago!"

"Since firecrackers can be mass-produced on a large scale, it must not be a problem to manufacture artillery. According to the current time calculation, making more than a dozen cannons should be completed in a short time!" Su Feng directly revealed the secret of the cannon.

The reason why he didn't say it before was because he didn't want Changsun Wuji and the others to be impetuous, and they would take many detours if they tried to eat a fat man in one bite.

Now, since they have mastered the relevant techniques proficiently, it is time for them to run.

Hearing this news, Changsun Wuji's eyes widened instantly. He never expected that the manufacturing technology of the cannon had been controlled by them all along.

Cheng Yaojin is even more so...

Cannon has always been his darling, and now it turns out that they have been in control of the relevant technology, and as long as they have time, they can be mass-produced.

The excitement in his heart can be imagined, if the whole army can be equipped with these cannons, what's the point of mere Japanese pirates?It won't take long to wipe them out!

"Understood!" Changsun Wuji nodded excitedly. Of course, he believed Su Feng's words without hesitation.

Followed by.

Su Feng asked someone to bring a map, combined with the concentrated areas where Japanese pirates appeared, and used the local terrain to propose how the cannons should be arranged.

Combined with the range and power of the cannon, a set of defensive standards has been laid out.

Su Feng's suggestions made many generals and Li Shimin's eyes shine.

This method is not bad, directly arming the beach with cannons, completely denying these pirates a chance to come in, so that they can be easily shut out...

……

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief and felt that this method was very good.

Su Feng immediately poured cold water on them!
"Defense alone is not enough. The best defense is to take the initiative to attack. Only by completely solving this problem can we ensure that such threats will not continue to appear!" Su Feng paused and said again.

His rhetoric has been recognized by many generals!

Especially Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing, they both looked at each other and looked at Su Feng, with the feeling that heroes see the same thing.

Yes!

Blindly defending will only make the enemy feel timid. The best way is to use the most decisive and direct way to make them pay the most painful price!
"What does King Yan mean?" Li Shimin's eyelids twitched wildly.

For some reason, he had a bad premonition at this time, and he always felt that what Su Feng said next would make him a little unbearable.

really.

What happened next confirmed his guess!

"If we want to take the initiative to attack and completely solve the scourge of Japanese pirates, the warships we use now must be completely changed. We can no longer use wooden warships, and all must be replaced with steel materials!"

Following Su Feng's words, there was an uproar in the hall again.

nowadays.

Although the steelmaking plant has formed a large scale, a large amount of materials are produced every day.

but.

These are all at a great price. In other words, the imperial court spent money on them. If such precious steel is used as a warship, the cost is unimaginable!
not to mention.

There has never been a warship made of steel before, and it would be too wasteful to do so!

"My lord, if all the warships are replaced with steel warships, it would be too much of a waste of existing resources. The warships we have now also have extremely strong combat effectiveness!" Changsun Wuji looked at Su Feng for the first time and replied road.

This is different from using copper to make firecrackers. How huge is a warship?

If it is true what Su Feng said, all the warships owned by the imperial court are replaced with steel, how much material will be consumed!
"If you want to achieve the desired goal, you must do this, because the next warship needs to install artillery, and our wooden warship can't bear the impact of the artillery at all!"

"The most important point is that the service life of wooden warships is only a short ten years, while warships made of steel materials can have a service life of tens to hundreds of years!" Su Feng immediately began to explain.

He knew that these guys cared about money very much, but if they wanted to get good results, they had to be prepared to pay the price.

The hall became quiet again, and almost everyone frowned thoughtfully.

Su Feng turned his head and glanced at the crowd, and decided to continue analyzing for them. Now they just haven't turned this corner, and all their attention is on the upcoming expenses...
