Chapter 1609 Western Fleet(1/4)

When the Tang Dynasty achieved a critical victory in the Western Regions, Yang Qiwa also led the South China Sea Fleet toward the Dashi Empire.

More than one hundred warships formed a huge fleet at sea.

In order to avoid the leak of news, all the merchant ships encountered on the road were controlled by Yang Qiwa's orders.

If it was the Tang people's caravan, then just let them follow the army, and everyone would not make things difficult for them.

But if it is a caravan of great cannibals, then I feel embarrassed.

You are captured.

Everything on your ship is the logistics supply of the army.

Those who know the appearance will follow you obediently and become a slave.

If you are disobedient, go and feed the fish.

Don't waste food on the boat.

"Admiral Yang, one day's itinerary ahead will arrive at the port of the former Persian Empire.

According to what we learned from the Dashi merchants, the Persian Port here is a very important port for the Dashi Navy.

They have several shipbuilding workshops here, and it is said that the most advanced sea boats of the Navy Master can also be made in the shipbuilding workshops here."

As Yang Qiwa's right-hand assistant, Su Yi naturally went to the Great Food this time.

Otherwise, if you stay in Qiwanggang, you would have no chance to make a contribution.

"The Persian Empire was originally the overlord of the West, and they accumulated a lot of craftsmanship in their long history.

Now it has been attacked by the Great Cannibal and has become the territory of the Great Cannibal.

The related shipbuilding technology naturally fell into the hands of the cannibals.

Under this circumstance, Persian Port has relatively advanced shipbuilding workshops, which I don’t think is surprising at all.

This time, we attacked Dashi, in addition to defeating their navy, one of the main tasks was to destroy their shipbuilding workshops and capture their craftsmen back to see if there was any promotion to our shipbuilding craftsmanship."

Yang Qiwa has a very clear understanding of her tasks.

Originally, he was worried that the "Yang Benman account" behind him would cause some interference to him.

However, I didn't expect that Li Shimin did not interfere with any of his arrangements from beginning to end.

You know, when Yang Qiwa was preparing to dispatch warships to set off at King Kong of Qi, Li Shimin's arrival almost disrupted all his plans.

Yang Qiwa was afraid that Li Shimin would personally command the fleet to fight, so the trouble would be great.

Although the warships of the Datang Navy were more advanced than those of the Great Cannibal, if the command was not good, it would be difficult to perform at a normal level.

Although Li Shimin was an emperor who immediately fought the country, he obviously had no experience in naval battles.

Yang Qiwa has a very accurate understanding of this.

Although Li Shimin was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Qiwa was Li Kuan's man.

There were many people from the Datang Navy, especially those who had previously belonged to the Maritime Governor's Office, who only recognized Li Kuan's orders.

If Li Shimin really intervened in the battle, then Yang Qiwa's situation would definitely be very troublesome.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince attached great importance to the development of their shipbuilding workshops when he was on the Korean Peninsula and Japan.

Now that he regards the Dashi Empire as the main opponent of the Tang Dynasty, we must adopt the same policy as before and destroy the shipbuilding power of the Dashi Empire as much as possible.

Admiral Yang, I have seen some introductions about artillery in newspapers before. Although there are only very vague introductions, you can also see the power of artillery from it.

Now, artillery cannons are installed on the "Yang Benman" that should be very useful if it is used to destroy the other party's ships or shipbuilding workshops.

In the future, will we suggest to the court that we should install artillery on every warship?”

Su Yi recalled the scene when she visited the "Yang Benman" some time ago, with envy in her eyes.

For professional navy personnel, a better battleship is that it is even more attractive than the concubine.

No matter how long legs or how fair skin or how beautiful they are, they are not as good as new warships.

"The various new bed crossbows and crossbows installed on our current warships are already invincible.

The improved crossbows and bed crossbows are simply not comparable to those of other countries' sea ships.

At this time, the use of artillery is not necessarily that great.

His Majesty sat on the "Yang Benman's name", even His Royal Highness's favorite disciple Di Renjie was on it.

In this case, if you take the initiative to propose to "convincible Yang Benman" to join the war.

If something goes wrong then, can you afford to take care of it?"

Yang Qiwa glanced at Su Yi, knowing very well what the idea was in his mind.

For these people who are floating on the sea, their sense of awe for Li Shimin, His Majesty, is actually not particularly strong.

After all, many of them were poor people who could not survive in the Tang Dynasty. Their lives changed dramatically after they followed the East China Sea fishery to go out to sea.

For many people, they only have Li Kuan in their eyes.

Of course, this situation will naturally have a lot to do with the intentional or unintentional guidance of Zhou Erfu and Yang Qiwa.

"The artillery that His Highness the Crown Prince attaches so much importance to, is definitely not underestimated.

Since the 'Yang Ben-man account has been followed by us to sea, if we keep hiding behind, it will be a waste of resources."

Sue was still a little unwilling to accept it.

He is really envious of this latest warship of the Tang Dynasty.

"How could it be wasted? Your Majesty went to fight in person, and this was considered an imperial commander-in-chief.

At the beginning, Fang Xiang and Changsun Sikong agreed to his Majesty leave the King of Qi Port because His Majesty agreed to let the "Yang Benman" follow the fleet from afar and never participate in the battle.

Otherwise, Fang Xiang and the others would not be able to let go.”

Yang Qiwa was also helpless when he thought of the scene where Li Shimin argued with Fang Xuanling and others in the King of Qi that day.

Although Li Shimin "in-chief in person" has a certain encouragement effect on morale.

But for him, the admiral, he definitely did not want to see such a scene.

Yang Qiwa never thought that she would face the situation like today.

"Well, since you absolutely have no need for admiral, let's just ignore them for now.

After we defeated the Great Food Navy, we will directly release a few hot air balloons and let them drop turbulent bombs on the shipbuilding workshop. It should also have a similar effect as cannons."

Sue said with regret.

"Although the great cannibal defeated us last time, we cannot take it lightly this time.

If they learn from their mistakes, they have remade better warships in recent years.

If people occupy the right time and place, they may become a hard bone."

Yang Qiwa is a cautious person.

Li Shimin's vision is naturally not concealed.

He could easily realize the importance behind this naval battle.

...

Persian Port.

As the third largest port for the cannibalism, it has received great attention.

It itself is the largest harbor in the Persian Empire.

As the most powerful country in the entire West, the Persian Empire naturally cannot be underestimated in all aspects.

Although like every dynasty, after hundreds of years of inheritance, there will be various problems within the empire.

It was eventually annexed by the newly-risen Dashi Empire.

"General Muaweiye, it seems that the Caliph still attaches great importance to the development of our Persian port.

Most of the newly launched warships in the entire empire were arranged here.

That is, it is not convenient for ships in Syria to come here, otherwise more warships would probably be placed in Persian port."

Hassan has been in a good mood recently.

His base camp is the land of the original Persian Empire.

The stronger the fleet on Persian Port, the more secure it is for him.

There are not many people in Persia who dare to jump out to resist the Great Food Empire.

Most of the time, when doing business in Persia, the risk is relatively small.

But once you want to go to sea, the situation in the West will be more complicated.

The waters close to the Dashi Empire are not bad, but they are still firmly controlled by the Dashi Navy.

But the situation is different when approaching Tianzhu.
