Chapter 106 Thunderbolt Navy
The new military name of the Pili Navy in front of the Imperial Empire was also issued to Yangzhou together with the imperial edict of Emperor Lizong. At the same time, they naturally arrived with large rewards and official photos of the generals of the Pili Navy. They were all ambassadors and young envoys. This basic military officer was promoted without going to Lin'an to thank him for his gratitude. ⊙The Song Dynasty was known for its redundant officials and soldiers, and there were tens of thousands of military officers at the level of envoys. If everyone kowtowed to the emperor, Emperor Lizong probably wouldn't even have time to go to the harem to create people.
The new camp of the Pili Navy was also selected. Because it was a naval army, the camp was not in Yangzhou City, but moved to Guazhou on the Yangtze River. Originally belonged to the camp of the Si Shenwu Army in front of the palace. This army was established during the Kaixi period of Emperor Ningzong of Song Dynasty and was prepared for the Northern Expedition. The army had an army of 8,000 people, but the barracks were very large and could station tens of thousands of troops. This barracks were naturally one of the preparations for the Kaixi Northern Expedition. Now the Si Shenwu Army in front of the palace has been transferred to Hunan to resist the Mongolian army invasion. The vacant barracks were just for use by the Pili Navy Army.
However, the change of defenses of tens of thousands of troops was not so easy to complete. The current Pili Navy is still concentrated in Yangzhou City, crowded in the original artillery camp, which immediately made this seemingly large camp a crowded place.
The reincarnated men who were sent to the PILI army have now been replaced with the Song army's war jackets, and they were all military funds transported from Jiangnan during this period. However, they were not equipped with weapons - slave paddlers and other words, but Chen Dexing did not trust these reincarnated men so quickly. Even the liberation soldiers of later generations also need some ideological education or something to go to the battlefield, right? And it is not only these reincarnated men who need education. In Chen Dexing's view, the soldiers and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty should be brainwashed!
These revisionists have different reactions to becoming paddlers. Some breathe a sigh of relief - because they don't have to worry about being beaten to death as a select leader; some seem disappointed - some of these people are very skilled in martial arts, and if they are given a chance, they may be able to get a job! But more of them don't matter. Anyway, they are just eating food when they are in the army, and there is no difference between rowing and chopping people...
The reorganization plan of the Pili Navy headquarters was also completed, and it was divided into three armies on the left, middle and right. The left, middle and middle are the navy army and the right army are the craftsmen army. The left, middle and middle each included three generals and eighteen units, each of which was a three-layer oar-mounted battleship, consisting of 260 people, including 174 oarsmen, and a total of 86 officers. The commander of the Central Army was held by Gao Da, and his official position had been promoted to the ambassador, Xunwulang of the eighth rank. The commander of the Left Army gave Lu Hu, and his official rank was two ranks higher than Gao Da, and he was from the seventh rank Wu Jinglang.
The Youjun had an organization of 1,500 people, including the craftsmen of the original Youjun, the craftsmen found from the converted people, and the ship craftsmen and blacksmiths invited by Huang Baiwan from Quanzhou High-Tech. The leader, who was nominally "missed", also came down with the monk's official photo, and was named Xiuwulang, the eighth-rank official, and was also the title of the ambassador.
However, in order to make Jia Sidao throw his weapons into a jealous way, Chen Dexing secretly sent the monk Liu to Li Cuixian's side - Fashi. The secret of Tianlei can delay the overthrow of the Song Dynasty and also accelerate the demise of the Song Dynasty! Therefore, Chen Dexing asked the monk Liu to go to Li Cuixian. As long as the whereabouts of the second-in-command figure of the artillery army are unknown, the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty must think twice before they can do it if they want to deal with Chen Dexing.
So in fact, the four people in charge of the Artillery Army were Huang Zhishen, Ren Yijiang, Liu Yang and Qita. Among them, Huang Zhishen got a ninth-rank Chengxinlang, and his dispatch was written by Yiji.
Ren Yijiang got a Taoist official and was appointed as the leader of the Ming Dynasty. He also served as the dispatch of the Pili Navy to handle military ordnance matters.
Liu Yang is the layman name of the senior brother Liu of the Shenxiao Sect. This Taoist Liu was about thirty years old and was a Han native in the northern region. He originally practiced Taoism in Zhongnan Mountain. Eight years ago, he traveled to Jiangnan and worshipped him at the Shenxiao Sect. He looked a bit like a Taoist bone and fairy-like manner. He was also a Taoist robe and crown all day long. He was a true Taoist priest with a Taoist rank. Chen Dexing had contacted him for a while and thought he was still reliable, so he told him the secret of the granular gunpowder and asked him to take turns to serve in the army with Taoist Ren, and also sent him to do military affairs.
Qita was an old man from the artillery army and one of the Qionghualou brothers. He was appointed by Chen Dexing as the deputy commander of the right army of the artillery army and the chief general of the blacksmith general. His official rank was also promoted to Wuyilang and belonged to the ambassador.
The Lu Shihu of the Lu family was also promoted to the position of the official position, from the magistrate to the Chengwulang. Although he was only a civil servant from the eighth rank, he belonged to the "Beijing officials" and was considered to be a "sea of selection" and reached the top in one step! However, Lu Shihu's dispatch did not change much, and he became the word "manager of the Pili Navy in front of the imperial court. He was the leader of the Pili Navy's aides. Because he was a civil servant or a Beijing official, his theoretical status was second only to Chen Dexing. In addition, Jia Sidao also appointed him to promote the Yangzhou Shipyard and asked him to supervise the construction of the jarship with Chen Dexing.
The matter of supervising the construction of warships is Chen Dexing’s most troublesome right now.
"Brother Lu Shi, Million, Taoist priest, Seventh Brother (Qita travels seven of the twenty-two brothers), halfway, sit all."
Wohufang, General. Chen Dexing, who is about to set off for Lin'an tomorrow, is still busy arranging shipbuilding tonight. Although it will take a few days to celebrate the New Year of the first year of Kaiqing, the battle between Song and Meng is in full swing, which is an extraordinary period. The army's training, dispatching, and weapons construction are all carried out frequently.
"Are the wood ready?" Chen Dexing took the teacup from Cui Yue'er, took a sip, and then asked straight to the point and asked about business.
"All of them are ready, the best wood is the inventory of Yangzhou shipyard." Lu Shihu replied with a smile. He went to take over the Yangzhou shipyard this morning. The production scale of this yard belonging to Lianghuai Fushi had a large previous production scale. However, before Yeliugan invaded, most of the craftsmen in the shipyard were transferred to the Jiankang shipyard and Zhenjiang shipyard on the other side of the Yangtze River. However, the stored wood was not transported away in time.
"Have you discussed it with the boatman?"
Huang Zhishen smiled and said, "It has been discussed and they have also seen the model... They think the side of this ship is a bit high and the hull is a bit slender. There is no problem in building it, so they are afraid that it will be inconvenient to jump and it will easily capsize."
A three-layer oarcraft pursues high speed, so the hull is designed very slender to reduce drag. To arrange a three-layer oar seat, the freeboard is naturally high, and it is naturally not easy to hit the sideline when encountering a low-freeboard river boat - the difference in height is too large, so it is not easy to jump down or climb up.
Chen Dexing shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I know all these, but when fighting against the river in the Sichuan River, I can only pray for speed. As for going to sea to fight in the future, I need to rebuild the sailboat, which is not the same shape."
"It's just that the ship fighting against the current is still too slow, so the impact is probably not enough, right?" Huang Zhishen said with some concern, "How to destroy the enemy ship still needs to be discussed with a long-term plan."
