The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas
Chapter 1497: Toy ship sailing
"The lone sail is far away from the blue sky, only the river and the sky flow." On the pier, the star was prominent, and Mr. David was marching for the Mediterranean fleet on the expedition. He and the generals watched the rows of ships lined up on the Nile. The flags were deployed, officers and soldiers were lined up, and looking up and down the river, the fleet stretched for no idea how many miles, covering the surface of the Kokand Nile. A large number of Cairo Chinese and many Cairoites gathered on the shore by the dock, and they came together to see off the fleet.
The southeast countries are engaged in military, civilian, fish, and water conditions. As long as the troops go out, they must mobilize nearby people to see them off, forming a trend of resentment of the same enemy and strengthening the morale of the troops.
"Fight for the leader, our army will win!" is the slogan of the military and civilians. The slogans are constantly sounding on the river, and it is endless. That really endless pride rises to the sky, strong and fierce. Every soldier who happens to meet is full of victory. Confidence, even if there is a toy boat at the foot!
Mr. David was very moved. He changed the half-queen poem "Send Meng Haoran to the Guangling Mausoleum" written by Li Bai. The result was a joke of Cheng Yu, the commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, saying: "Lao Meng is the fireworks in Yangzhou in March. We are In August!"
"Wrap around a hundred thousand guan, ride a crane down to Yangzhou." David said again, he was an egg man, speaking of Chinese poems, and used this as an introduction: "Meng Haoran went to Yangzhou to spend money. Yes, we are going to make money!"
He looked at the officers on the wharf and said: "The big fleet is going out of the Nile. The goal of this battle is to defeat the enemy fleet and ensure the logistics support of our army. You guys, the opportunity is rare. Don't let this great opportunity for meritorious rewards be missed."
Cheng Yu said in public: "Please rest assured, the sir, our army will win this battle and defeat the enemy!"
The three stars representing the rank of lieutenant general on his finger shoulder said: "When our army returns triumphantly, add another star here!"
Four-star admiral!
Mr. David said happily: "When you return, I will pull two stars from my shoulder to you, one on each side!"
The two stretched out their palms and slapped them!
"Sure victory, sure victory, sure victory..." People shouted loudly. With the sound of firecrackers, the auspicious time for the army to march has arrived. The crowds on the pier once again burst into huge cheers, and some Cairo people shouted even more. It's an exaggeration, yelling in Chinese, "Our army will win!"
The local officials did a good job. How many childcares and money they put in these crowds, but the atmosphere is really set off.
"Even those crooked nuts support us!" The morale of the officers and soldiers on the ship rose sharply, and it was really in full swing.
"Bring the wine!" Mr. David yelled and fetched the rum on the large coarse porcelain bowl. Mr. David personally handed it to Cheng Yu. Everyone shared them. After respecting each other, they drank it all at once, and then sent the porcelain bowl to Cheng Yu. A smash on the ground, a smashed body and bones, to show generosity and sturdiness. This is the custom of Jing Ke assassinating King Qin down. Prince Yan will see off Jing Ke at the edge of Yishui. Jing Ke took the wine in Prince Yan's hand, drank it, and then took the bowl. Broken to the ground, to show that there is no going back.
If the army dropped a bowl before the expedition, it showed that the bowl was not needed. This time, if you don't cut Loulan, you will not return it!
Everyone in the fleet is firm. In any case, if you have already boarded the ship and there is no retreat, then you will be defeated and won!
Cheng Yu boarded the flagship, which was also a "toy ship". He raised his flag without sitting in his ship, and exchanged military salutes with Mr. David as soon as he was on the shore and on the ship. Cheng Yu gave the order: "Fire, set sail!"
"Boom boom boom..." Cannons blasted on the river, and the fleet set off. The first thing that went ahead was hundreds of warships. Although small, they were numerous and worth seeing.
The ten warships at the beginning were dressed in red and adorned. The river was closed for navigation. Let them swim. The southeastern army officers and soldiers in blue uniforms stood on the armor of the ship with their heads upright. They didn’t need to use sails, the river water. Just sent them off, and the fleet sailed out amidst the thunderous cheers on the dock.
Although the boat is small, the human spirit,
The three hundred warships that accompanied them were also mixed with sailing merchant ships, and even Calais ships, which were used to supply water, food and materials, and the number was quite large.
However, with the big heads behind, these sailing ships are only for the supply of the Mediterranean fleet, and the large fleet used for the supply of ground offensive forces is ready to go. They are waiting for the news that the army has defeated the main force of the enemy fleet.
...
The prominent position on the flagship of the Mediterranean Fleet striker is the red-haired fan. This person is named Cabot, a former Englishman who has been naturalized in the southeast.
This man is a veteran of seafaring. He lived on the boat at a very young age. He has experienced the wind and waves of the three oceans. He is definitely not a person who has gained a reputation. With his good boat skills, he has successfully naturalized into the Southeast. Now he He was a general with a knighthood and ambition to climb up. Mr. David, who was also a red-haired fan, joined the Mediterranean fleet with one move.
This time he got lucky and got a good lottery when drawing lots and became a pioneer.
The third squadron he is in is well-trained, and he is also very dedicated to training. He stays with his subordinates all the time, tidying up his army, and responding to each other. Now their morale is high and they are determined to fight a good battle.
However, the voyage is indeed a bit difficult!
I had a hot meal before departure. After departure, everyone ate biscuits, dried meat and kimchi. There was no more hot food.
Replaced with a large ship, with plenty of coal, you can cook hot food for everyone in a short time.
Sure enough, I said that the supply of the "toy ship" can depend on land. That is to release P. The soldiers have long believed that the military is in such a hot situation. Do you dare to stop the ship to eat hot food? !
There is a serious shortage of sleeping places. On the "toy boat", there is not enough space~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and extra beds are needed...The capacity is 70 people, and the cabin cannot be accommodated early because the cabin is too small and full of ammunition and There was not enough space to sleep in, and an extra 50 people were added. They all slept on the deck, packed full, and the night crew would step on them if they were not careful.
But there is no way, people are necessary, otherwise the firepower is insufficient.
One night, the fog was heavy, and the next day the crew on the deck got soaked.
The sun came out, shining violently, and the river rose. The "toy boat" was almost like a steamer, and people in it were like steamed meatloaf!
The southeast ship has a reasonable design, with insulation and automatic ventilators, but don’t expect it on a "toy ship".
People said, "Steam the monkeys in the water!"
Self-confessed to be a monkey, Cabot said: "You are a yellow-skinned monkey, I am a white-skinned monkey!"
"No, we are all black monkeys!" he corrected.
Due to the hard training, all the people are tanned.
Moist and hot, it is really miserable.
Within a day, all the clothes and clothes were gone, and the original image in the mighty military uniform disappeared. Except for a few officers, the rest were all revealed.
The only comfort for everyone is cold drinks. The Mediterranean Fleet did one thing right. No matter how tight the place is, a lot of saltpeter is loaded on the ship to cool down and make cold drinks for everyone to drink.
Drinking the cold and sour plum soup, everyone is anxious and can't wait to hurry up, hurry up, defeat the Baotou guy, and be able to shore up supplies.
No, the fleet will go out of the mouth of the Nile, and it will find the target in the telescope.
"One, two, three, four!" The lookout soldier exclaimed excitedly: "A big sailing ship and three Calais!"
"Liver them!" Cabot said fiercely!
