Take the mall to Datang

All the information obtained from the population of the Ministry of Economic Development is a development plan about the Chang'an model, and many of them are introductions to the various shops that are now appearing in Chang'an.

And they very much encourage businessmen to innovate and enrich their products.

In this way, in February, the scale of the Yuezhou kiln factory has begun to take shape, and five small kilns have been put into production. Due to the input of this batch of materials, the speed of port construction has accelerated, and the speed of shipbuilding in the dock has begun to accelerate.

During this period, the Satisfaction also went out to sea to catch fish several times, and the harvest was quite good, which directly caused the price of Yuezhou fish to drop a little. This cannot be blamed for the fishing on the Satisfaction, but the treasure ship is too big, and the output of fishing is amazing.

Yuezhou Port, the docking of the Xiaolong made the port more lively. The sailors spent a lot of time practicing on the shore, and occasionally took a boat to cruise in the offshore. Yuan Shan came to see it several times and found that the captain named Tian Yuan I like training very much.

It's okay today, Yuan Shan came to the port to inspect, and just arrived here in a carriage, he heard the sailors on the shore were already practicing. It seems that these people have been training for a long time.

"Lieutenant Tian just passed the New Year's Eve and didn't let these soldiers rest more. You guys are really hardworking." Yuan Shan walked over and said.

"Haha, the training is not important. If they don't train them, they will be bored. Is Yuan Pushe also here to inspect today?" Tian Yuan said.

"Yeah, the weather is fine today, just come and have a look." Yuan Shan said casually.

The weather is too cold and the hired workers are mainly working in the dock. As for the cement and masonry construction of the port, the construction has not yet started, and Liu Guangyao will be needed to help. After all, a large number of workers will be needed.

In addition, Yuanshan also came to check the winter fishing. At this time, the fish are generally at a relatively deep water level. It is not easy for ordinary small fishing boats to catch fish. On the contrary, the large nets of treasure ships can make up for it. The main reason is that Fishing can be sold for money.

Don't look at Yuanshan's superficial beauty, in fact, there is not a lot of cash and money in his trouser pockets, and don't look at the pushed copper coins, which can hardly fit in the east and west rooms, but after all, there is not so much gold, hundreds of thousands of coins are reserved for the preparation of the money bank What about money?

A lot of money on the treasure ship was used to invest in the dock. Only then did they go to Yuezhou, Fuzhou, Lingnan and other places. Especially Lingnan is the area that Yuanshan plans to focus on. The environment there can be described as poor. describe.

With the help of Feng An, it has only begun to improve. The tribes are the most worrying. At present, they can rely solely on their interests to win over and contain them, but the conflicts between the tribes are not so easy to solve.

"What happened to Yuan Pushe?" Tian Yuan saw that Yuan Shan hadn't responded for a long time, so he worriedly asked Xue Rengui beside him.

"Teacher Yuan is fine, but he is too preoccupied with things. Don't disturb him. Lieutenant Tian's military training method is very unique. Xue also has some experience in military training. I don't know if we can learn from each other." Xue Rengui said from the side, one is to transfer Another topic is really interested in Tian Yuan's military training.

It is very modest to learn from each other, but in this matter, the method of training soldiers and these things will not be easily spread to the outside world. Tian Yuan doesn't think that the young guard in front of him can understand much, it is probably just gossip.

"Oh? I've heard about Yuan Pu and this way a long time ago. Could it be that little brother Xue also got the true instruction?" Tian Yuan said.

Xue Rengui blushed a little. The embarrassing thing was that Yuan Shan did not teach him any art of war, but the hunter training made him experience it. To be honest, he and the ghost hunters must have not studied systematically. Still interested in this.

Chapter 751

"General Tian, ​​your formation seems to be strong, but the training is unscientific." Xue Rengui said suddenly.

"Oh, what does it mean to be unscientific?" Tian Yuan asked immediately, and his attitude became a little colder in an instant. Military training is something he is good at, and Xue Rengui suddenly said that. face.

"It's unscientific. It's a bit complicated to explain. In short, it's not the best way to practice according to the current method. The battle between the array and the opponent's formation is a bit tricky. As for the sailors, they should train their sense of balance more, so that they can fight against ships in close combat. Then the battle will not be affected by the shaking of the hull," Xue Rengui said.

Tian Yuan listened to what Xue Rengui said, which made sense. From the perspective of the current naval battle, many ships fight against small ships. There is no concept of fleet formation for coordinated operations. The conventional method of warfare is that the ships are directly close to each other to fight.

Hook locks, shelling, and circling in the vortex are all things that can only be played by the magical version of Pirates of the Caribbean, which are far different from real naval battles.

However, now that there are super large ships like treasure ships, no other country has a ship as large as a treasure ship in terms of current sea-going ship technology, so if you get close to a battle treasure ship, you will suffer and have an advantage.

The disadvantage is that the hull is too big. If someone uses ropes, it may be used as a fire target. It is actually very difficult for many people to climb onto the boat. , but the advantage is that the ship is large enough to carry more people. Relatively speaking, there are not so many sailors on board, which is another problem.

However, Xue Rengui has experience in long-distance voyages. Although he experienced the turbulence all the way, the battle of treasure ships is an active strategy when fighting close combat with sea ships. He directly uses human sea tactics to jump onto local ships. The biggest advantage, of course, if Xue Rengui knew that there were all kinds of artillery installed on the ship, it would be another matter.

"The sense of balance makes sense." Tian Yuan said.

Tian Yuan is very experienced. When ships are engaged in battle, the hull is not particularly stable, especially between small boats. The lack of balance will affect the combat effectiveness. How can you fight the enemy if you are not stable on the ship.

From this point of view, Tian Yuan still agrees with Xue Rengui's words, but he is an experienced general after all. Although he is not very happy with Xue Rengui's comment, he still asks: "Then tell me how to exercise this sense of balance. It can't be you talking nonsense."

"Of course not. There are many ways to exercise the sense of balance, such as using a balance beam to exercise, and jumping with ropes." Xue Rengui said.

"En? Specifically, why have you never heard of the things you mentioned?" Tian Yuan said.

"These things are all learned from the hunter training ground. How do you know?" Xue Rengui muttered in his heart.

"Could it be a lie." Tian Yuan continued.

"Whoever lied to you, it's actually very simple to hang a few pieces of wood and let the soldiers exercise on them. When you can walk like flying, you can pass the test. As for the rope leap, it's actually even simpler. Help me to swing on the swing, oh, it’s fine if I don’t get dizzy when I’m upside down.” Xue Rengui said.

"The former is justified, but the latter is too cruel." Tian Yuan asked doubtfully.

Xue Rengui wanted to nod, but he didn't know who paid attention. He suffered a lot in the past year, but he still used it effectively on the sailors.

Tian Yuan curled his lips and felt unreliable for Xue Rengui to say these two methods of military training casually. After all, the method of military training is not something that everyone is willing to spread easily, and Xue Rengui is young.

"Why are you two talking so deeply?" Yuan Shan's voice came over.

"Teacher Yuan, I'm just talking about military training with General Tian," Xue Rengui said.

"Oh, isn't it just talking on paper again?" Yuan Shan said with a smile.

Immediately said to Tian Yuan: "Don't mind, I am a young and frivolous student who yearns for the art of war very much. If I have nothing to do, I like to find generals to study. Excuse me."

Xue Rengui will stop talking. It is true that he is a rookie who has never led a soldier. He has a bit of theoretical knowledge, but in Yuan Shan's opinion, he is not yet mature enough. Regardless of Xue Rengui, with the experience in front of him, it would be really difficult to go to the battlefield. Able to become famous.

After bidding farewell to Tian Yuan, Yuan Shan and Xue Rengui went directly to the Satisfaction Number.

"The sanitation on board must be done well, especially the toilets on board must be cleaned every day, and attention must be paid to strict inspection of snakes, insects, rats and ants. The cargo in the cabin needs to be checked. In addition, attention must be paid to fire prevention. Use oil lamps." Yuan Shan repeatedly emphasized these issues to several people on board who were in charge of internal affairs.

Just as they were checking the cabin, a merchant ship coming from offshore suddenly had a problem, and someone in the distance began to call for help.

Satisfaction is equipped with a long-range telescope, and people will take turns to monitor the sea every day. The situation of the distant ship can be seen clearly. It is a damaged merchant ship with a broken mast. It is lucky to be able to float back with a few auxiliary sails. that's it.

After hearing the news, Yuan Shan immediately called for help, and Satisfaction began to prepare. It took half an hour to leave the port, and after a morning of tossing, the merchant ship finally docked.

"Thank you for saving us." The people who put it on expressed their thanks one after another.

"What's wrong with your ship? There don't seem to be many pirates in Yuezhou. Besides, it's impossible for human beings to cause such damage to your ship." Yuan Shan asked doubtfully.

"It's not a pirate. Our ship encountered a big fish. At that time..." the merchant ship began to describe it.

This ship is a medium-sized cargo ship. When the big fish appeared at that time, it did not directly damage the hull. The sail was folded because of the huge waves. Of course they all thought that the ship would capsize, but luckily nothing like that happened.

"Big fish, what's it like?" Yuan Shan asked.

"It's big, it's that big." Listening to the crew's description, there was a little confusion in understanding.

After thinking about it, Yuan Shan felt that what they encountered was definitely not a shark. Sharks do not have such a body that can shake the entire medium-sized cargo ship. This may be the same fish that attacked the caravan last time.

Asking someone to bring paper, ink, brush and inkstone, Yuan Shan simply drew a whale and asked, "Did you meet such a big fish?"

"Yes, it feels very similar to this." Said the crew member.

"What was the whale like 1000 years ago? I want to see it." Yuan Shan thought to himself.

By the time Liu Guangyao arrived, Yuan Shan had almost understood the situation. The threat of whales to merchant ships was a bit big, and he still couldn't figure out why whales entered and exited the sea so frequently.
