However, when Eunuch Wei was ambitious to show his skills, the generals looked strange.

However, the father-in-law's eagerness made the naval generals dare not come forward to pour cold water on his father-in-law.

In fact, the firearms brought by the father-in-law from the capital were seen by the navy generals, but except for landmines and individual firearms, the rest of the things can be described in four words in the eyes of these generals.

This also indirectly explains why Eunuch Wei was able to buy so many firearms from military weapons supervision at one time. The reason is that these things are not welcomed in the army at all.

The design concept of some firearms is very good, but when used in specific combat, various problems always arise, and the launch effect cannot be guaranteed. Many firearms cannot fly to the enemy ship after being used, and they will stop fire and fall into the sea halfway.

This is still light. Some firearms of severe mass may even fly well and suddenly turn toward their own ships.

During the Battle of Luliang, it was because another ship mistakenly threw the firearm into Deng Zilong's ship, which caused the Deng Zilong's ship to catch fire. The Japanese army took the opportunity to counterattack the ship and jumped into the gang's hand-to-hand combat. Deng Zilong led his troops to fight hard and died. The North Korean general Li Shunchen who came to rescue was also killed.

Therefore, even though so many firearms were produced in China, in real naval battles, the Ming Dynasty navy was unwilling or rarely used the "new firearms" invented in China. Their main combat mode was that near ships were mainly fired by muskets and hand-to-hand combat ships, and artillery attacks were secondary.

During the Luliang Sea Battle, the three armies of China, Japan and Korea staged a hand-to-hand battle in Luliang Sea, rather than the sea artillery bombardment that Eunuch Wei thought.

This combat mode will last at least a hundred years without Eunuch Wei.

Including the Zheng naval army's attack on Taiwan and the later Ming and Ming dynasties in Penghu, the Qing Dynasty, were all pure maritime hand-to-hand combat mode.

Focus on melee combat.

This is also why the Zheng navy was unable to block Taiwan during the campaign to attack Taiwan, which led to the Dutch gunships still being able to operate freely in Taiwan's waters.

Because the speed of the Ming Zheng warships was not as fast as that of the Dutch. Although the Dutch had few ships and soldiers, they did not entangle with the Zheng army, and would not fight to the Zheng army.

Objectively speaking, the Ming Dynasty actually took the right path to develop firearms. Take the new firearms brought by my father-in-law, all of them were the predecessors of missiles and rockets, and achieved the concept of "three-stage boost". The mines were also very good, but after all, due to technology and the sudden destruction of the country, the regularization of the firearms was aborted in the middle of the road, and in the end it was mostly a joke to the Tatars.

Otherwise, it is hard to say whether the missile was developed by China.

....

The navy was unwilling to use the "invention" of the military war situation, which naturally led to a large amount of stock in the military weapon surveillance. The ignorant Eunuch Wei, who was not aware of the profession, plunged in. When he saw that this man was stupid and had a lot of money, he was eager to clear the stock and recover his capital, he naturally spared no effort to sell him to the military weapon surveillance and treated him as a sucker.

Eunuch Wei himself was complacent and thought that the quality was not good, so he won by quantity. Who made him lose the ability to innovate production?

Of course, it can also be said that Eunuch Wei is using his real money to explore the reform of the Ming army, and crossing the river first with his own stones.

It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work, the key is to try it. How can you know if it doesn’t work?

Besides, I have spent money, so there is no reason not to use it.

Without these new firearms, can your Navy guarantee that you will keep those six ships for our family?

If you can't do it, you can't laugh at our innovation!

The one who is responsible for his father-in-law's new tactics is his own military camp.

This time, the army operated with the Navy, had two battalions, one was the personal guard battalion dominated by the Japanese, and the other was the land battle battalion composed of officers and soldiers drawn from the Navy.

The other infantry battalions, including the soldiers of my father-in-law's hometown, did not follow the army.

As for the reason, you can even imagine seasickness with your butt.

The battle on the river and the battle on the sea are completely different. Most of the officers and soldiers who have not undergone naval combat training cannot even be able to stay on the sea boat for half a day, and it is too sarcastic to bring them out to fight with people.

There are no restrictions on this aspect in the Kaiwei Battalion and the Land War Battalion. The former is mainly Japanese soldiers, and it is also considered a navy, while the latter is even an old navy. The two do not have seasickness problems.

At present, several army camps are in Wusong Port, under the responsibility of Zheng Duo and Wu Fuming. With the cooperation of the naval left-behind detachment, they conduct naval battle training.

The key point of training is to avoid seasickness in three words.

The father-in-law noticed the strange look on the face of the general. He knew that these guys must be mocking his old man's whimsical imagination.

My father-in-law didn't say anything. He knew that these people must have seen these new firearms, otherwise they would not have looked like this.

To be honest, he was also worried.

Whether he can make his face look like Dadao and Anguo Temple.

The father-in-law nodded to Oda, and Oda bowed and whispered, then walked to the bow of the ship and waved a triangular red flag. Two more guards blew the horns hard, and the horns were different from the usual horns in the army, which were very rapid.

The navy also made arrangements and adjustments according to Eunuch Wei's requirements, and each ship was tightly grasping the six ships of the Qianhusou who had escaped.

After receiving the signal from the lord ship at Anguo Temple, which was leading his subordinates to lift out the four fire dragon cannons in the cabin.

The reason why it is lifted rather than pushed is because the Fire Dragon Cannon does not have wheels or cannon stands. It weighs more than 100 kilograms and is long and has a dragon head, so it is also called "Fire Dragon Out of Water".

Below the dragon head, on both sides of the dragon's tail, each equipped with a half-pound gunpowder barrel, summarizing the four rocket fuses, and connecting them with the rocket fuses in the fire dragon's belly. During a water battle, facing the enemy ship, three or four feet from the water surface, ignite the four gunpowder barrels installed on the dragon's body. They are the first-stage rockets, which can push the fire dragon to fly two or three miles away. When the first-stage rocket is burned, they will automatically ignite the rockets in the dragon's belly, which are the second-stage rockets. Several rockets are shot out from the dragon's mouth and reach the target, causing the enemy ship to catch fire and burn.

There is only one prerequisite for using the Fire Dragon Cannon, which is that it must be closer to the enemy ship to ensure that the rocket can hit the target after the Fire Dragon Cannon is launched.

At the same time, several fast ships where the personal guard camp were located also accelerated one after another. The officers and soldiers on the ship carried out various new firearms and aimed at the warships fleeing ahead.

"ignition!"

Anguo Temple personally lit a fire dragon cannon with a torch in hand. With the burning sound of the "hissing" fuse, the powder barrel on the dragon's body was lit at the same time, and then flew out to the sea at the same time.

From a distance, it looks like a dragon.

The sound was also extremely loud, making Eunuch Wei, who was watching the battle behind, feel in a daze, thinking that he was thirty years old.

"What's it?!"

The officers and soldiers on a mountain-passing warship that was running away heard the screaming sound from behind, and then they saw something emitting flames flying towards their ship on the sea.

Fortunately, Eunuch Wei did not scold him.

My father-in-law was only staring at the front of the clutches, staring tightly.

After chasing for another two miles, a "whizzing" whizzing sound came from my father-in-law's ears again.

This time the screaming sound was obviously louder and denser than before.

The whistle of the Rockets sounded from the six Clippers at the same time.

The navy generals could see clearly and couldn't believe it because they saw more than ten rockets from different sides flying towards the last ship of the Qianhushou on the sea.

so much?

Not only were the navy surprised so many fire dragons emerged from the sea at the same time, but the officers and soldiers of the Thousand Houses of the Chuanshan on the boat where they were targeting were also stunned.

Sixteen rockets attacked from behind left, back right, and middle directions at the same time. The flames that soared into the air were accompanied by a scream, and the scene was spectacular.

Yao Xi!

Eunuch Wei couldn't help but feel relieved: The soldiers of the Imperial Army are really the true teachings of our family for more and less!
Chapter completed!
