The majesty of the Tang Dynasty is there, showing it to everyone without any concealment. If you have any bad thoughts and want to try to stroke the tiger's beard, that's fine, as long as you can afford the result after that. .

Datang is not a style of resignation. Today's Datang is more like the Great Qin that ruled the world.

After the other ministers heard Zhang Nuo's idea, they thought about it for a while and felt that this might be the best result. At present, what Tang needs is mainly resources.Of course, large tracts of farmland in Linyi and Chenla are also needed.

After all, it is difficult to find such a suitable grain planting base in the Tang Dynasty. Three crops a year, with such a grain base, there will be no shortage of grain in the entire Tang Dynasty for generations.

Although Zhang Nuo came this time, he only provided an idea, but it made everyone suddenly enlightened. In fact, it should have been like this. Datang never had any concerns about whether he could fight or not. In the eyes, only they are willing to fight, and they have never been unable to fight this option.

But looking at the lively scene in front of him discussing about dispatching troops, Zhang Nuo slapped himself on the face, committing a crime, obviously he wanted to take a good rest before, why did he say such a word? The download is finished, there must be no rest time, maybe we have to set off as soon as possible.

Could this be the legendary self-inflicted evil?

Zhang Nuo was speechless at this moment, he knew that his end was already doomed, it was impossible for him to drag everyone and tell him to rest for a few days.

Datang's high-speed train was already ready to go, and now after he solved the last problem, everyone has been taken as passengers.

Either jump off the high-speed train and fall to your death, or rush forward with it.

Zhang Nuo was very afraid of death, so he chose the second option very conscientiously, so he was escorted home to pack some things that day, and then he was thrown into the barracks to be with the enthusiastic Li Shimin. .

That's right, Li Shimin, that bastard, just because he has dealt with the courtiers, he can finally conquest himself, so he didn't even bother to wait for the time to launch a public opinion war in the newspaper, so he ran directly to the barracks and prepared to lead people to do it up.

At the same time, the army officers and soldiers who have been training hard in the Yunnan-Guizhou Military Region also ushered in the long-lost rest time, and several soldiers who were not particularly good in psychological quality almost cried out.

It's no wonder that they are suffering, it's just that the life in the forest is too hard!

Chapter 860 Jungle Warfare Training

For these little soldiers receiving special training, this special training is simply inhumane.

In the past, the troops did not have special training, especially before the big competition every year, the various troops practiced desperately, in order to win the first place in the big competition.

But they are not afraid of that kind of training camp. Although they are tired, they can persevere through gritting their teeth, and they can know where their progress is and where their shortcomings are every day.

Moreover, the content of the training is not much different from their usual training in the army. It is more about supplementing their weaknesses and improving their strengths.

But the special training in the jungle is different. First of all, the first difference is that he has a lot of materials to learn and memorize. This alone is enough for many people to complain.

Except for the children of the Wu Xun family, the vast majority of those who can enter the army are actually children of ordinary people. After receiving a few years of education, they found that they really have no advantage in the field of literature. , One is not a good project and the other is really worthless.

Of course, another reason is that the people of Datang still feel in their bones that their children are either in politics or in the army, so what's the matter with wandering around outside all the time.

So this group of people who couldn't get through their studies outside were sent to the army to be trained. When they first came in, they were naturally crying and howling. Today's Datang army is no longer as crude as it used to be in training. look like.

All kinds of new training equipment and training methods have already spread to various units with the transfer of the new batch of officers. These are good ways to keep fit, but they are a bit hard.

But with the army's better and better food, the body is getting stronger day by day.

After these little soldiers get used to it slowly, they will find that as long as they grit their teeth and persist in these trainings, that's all there is to it, and everyone can still find fun in it, such as the annual military competition.

There are national level competitions, as well as those held by each military region. These are all stages for sergeants to show their abilities.

But when these little soldiers got used to it, the special jungle training came.

At this time, they discovered that reading can be more painful than physical training. Physical training means that as long as you persist, you can survive one by one.

But learning is different. If you can’t remember it after learning it, then you really can only learn it over and over again. You have to keep going even if you learn it. Anyway, if you can’t learn it, you can continue. Continue after a meal.

After finally getting through the stage of knowledge learning, I have worked so hard to remember which bugs, which plants are fatal, and which ones are edible and life-saving. At first, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But in the end, when they turned around, they were kicked into the jungle by a group of extremely tough air force soldiers. Unlike the usual training, they didn't have any supplies, just a small knife and a little salt. Flint is not prepared for such a thing.

Well, the objective of the mission is very simple, go in for three days, find a target, and then bring it out, and you can solve all the problems in the middle.

If the previous study was a nightmare, then the jungle training this time is probably a nightmare among nightmares. Even if someone in the family was a hunter before enlisting in the army, they never did it.

In fact, hunters usually go to areas they are familiar with when they enter the mountains, and they also bring supplies. How can they rush in without bringing anything.

But there is no way, the arrogant soldiers who came from the air force with their nostrils turned upside down are not used to them at all, but anyone who wants to be lazy, or cheats in violation of training regulations, these people didn’t feel their existence before, and I don’t know where to hide The people in the room will rush out from all kinds of inexplicable places in an instant, and then they will be beaten up.

Going into the jungle for training, coming back to recuperate and summarizing, entering the jungle again for training, and then coming back to recuperate and summarize, in the past few months, all these sergeants in the entire Yunnan-Guizhou Military Region have become like savages.

Fortunately, this hard time is finally over. The superior has issued an order directly to the military region. All troops have entered the first level of combat readiness and are ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

This group of little soldiers who have been training so much that they are going to be stupid have lost a lot of weight at this time, but the whole person seems to have been tempered, and even when they walk, they habitually move lightly.

This is actually the result of several months of training. You must know that the number of wild beasts in the jungle these days is not comparable to that of later generations.

Leopards, tigers, crocodiles, and other messy carnivorous beasts are everywhere.

Therefore, the difficulty of living in the jungle at this time is actually much higher than that of later generations, not to mention that the botanists and zoologists of later generations have almost thoroughly studied the jungle.

Another thing that cannot be ignored is the gap in equipment. Regardless of how awesome the special forces are in training and performing tasks, in fact the equipment on them is not cheap at all.

But in this day and age, don't count on those things. It's impossible to have them. The materials and craftsmanship can't meet that kind of requirements.

The order has been issued, so what to do at this time is not to continue intense training, but to set aside a period of time to give these little soldiers who have suffered enough in the jungle to recuperate.

Life in the jungle is not easy at all. Not to mention anything else, the physical burden is much heavier than usual, and the continuous battles cannot be supplemented reasonably. It is strange that the body can get better. It's just that they trained and recuperated in the army before and made their foundations relatively solid, otherwise their bodies would have collapsed early at this moment.

But this is about to go to the expedition, so naturally you have to stop training and take good care of your body, otherwise I'm afraid that you will have to wear yourself down as soon as you go up.

Zhang Nuo probably knew the situation in the Yunnan-Guizhou Military Region, so he gave enough time for this side to recover after training. At the same time, he also emphasized that although there will be no more jungle training for the time being, he will just keep people alive and do nothing. , I'm afraid that the body will degenerate very badly.

So the usual training is still necessary. It can even be said that with the jungle training as a base, the previous training intensity can be increased a little bit, and the effect of supplementing while training may be better.

Zhang Nuo turned his head and didn't have the heart to pay attention to that side. He had to go with Li Shimin to see the service status of the latest batch of warships of the Datang Navy, which would be the reliance of the Datang to conquer the sea.

Chapter 861 The Opportunity for Datang to Take Off

Datang's current main warships are of course the same batch of three-prong sailing ships built before. These ships are still very good from a practical point of view. They can fight, run and transport goods. Whether they are military or commercial, everyone loves them. satisfy.

Moreover, Datang's shipping business is currently booming. Although the railway has been repaired, the shortage of manpower and material resources makes it impossible for Datang to build several trunk railways at the same time.

Therefore, sea freight has become a good transportation supplement.

Compared with land transportation, sea transportation has many advantages. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the carrying capacity, a ship can easily pull away the goods of dozens of carriages at once.

Moreover, since the current sea transportation is mainly between the north and the south, basically a large number of merchant ships are actually traveling along the coastline.

So in this way, the risk of facing the strong winds and waves in the middle of the ocean is also avoided, coupled with various protection measures for the cargo in the cabin, so the current sea transportation is unexpectedly safe, even if it is carrying such things as porcelain. Fragile items can also be easily and completely transported to distant places.

Of course, since the new generation of warships has already started construction at full capacity.Therefore, the three-masted sailing ship has actually entered the countdown to its withdrawal from the stage of history.

Perhaps, this Central South Battle is the last large-scale naval battle of the three-masted sailing ships.

The navy officers and soldiers actually knew this news more or less. For them, warships are not only their tools for combat, but also their homes against wind and waves at sea.

No one doesn't want their battleship to be more powerful, but it is inevitable to feel a little bit reluctant to change the battleship.

When Zhang Nuo and Li Shimin arrived at the naval base, what they saw was this kind of scene. Groups of marines disembarked from the ships, some said goodbye to the battleships, and some looked enviously at their companions who had gone away.

That's right, not all naval officers and soldiers can change their outfits. At present, there is only one new warship in the entire Tang Dynasty that is just ready to go to sea.

And this battleship undertakes not only combat missions, but also a training function.

The "Dingyuan"-class ironclad ship equipped with a high-power reciprocating steam engine will replace the previous three-barrel sailboat as the general flagship of the navy.

At the same time, it will also serve as a training ship to continuously provide the navy with new ship operation training.

After all, compared with the traditional three-masted sailing ship, the new ironclad ship is a completely different type of ship in terms of sailing, combat, and maintenance.

If the navies want to truly control this new type of warship, there are really too many things to learn.

Therefore, this time, the navy has also transferred a small number of elite soldiers from each ship, and they will become the first crew of the Dingyuan-class ironclad ship Dingyuan.

At the same time, they will also be the instructors of the first batch of new ships. After they have been familiar with this place for enough time, they will be divided into three groups. It also exists as a practical training instructor for the next batch of training officers and soldiers.

The second batch will bring their own learning experience, return to the original ships, and start to lead their colleagues to take over the next batch of warships.

And the last batch will go to the Naval Academy. They will have dual identities. On the one hand, they will be instructors, who will start training the naval cadets in class in advance; researcher.

Based on the various materials provided by Zhang Nuo, they will combine their own experience on board, surrounding hydrographic data, and other technical data to study how to further develop the combat effectiveness of the new navy ships.

At the same time, everyone has to submit regular reports to the Naval Shipyard. From the experience of use to their own needs and their imagination for future new warships, as long as it is useful information, it can be sorted out and submitted to the past.

This is what Zhang Nuo attaches great importance to, perhaps it is a knot in his heart.

Speaking of which, the Rabbit Navy of the later generations actually went through the era of broken copper and iron. It was not until 095 that it really embarked on the road of independent navy. Many things before were either purchased and slowly learned and transformed. Or it is imitation.

Not to mention that we were absent during the craziest and most glorious sea battles throughout World War II.

This also led to the fact that in Zhang Nuo's memory, even if it was a battleship sissy game, the excellent ships that appeared in it were foreign warships such as Bismarck, Iowa, Yamato, and so on.

Zhang Nuo didn't have this opportunity before, but now he has it. The entire naval affairs of the Tang Dynasty can almost be said to be settled by Zhang Nuo. Even if it costs a lot to build a few battleships, no one will say anything.

Because everyone knows that the more powerful the warship, the more rewarding it will be. Zhang Nuo has proved this countless times.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo didn't intend to blindly follow the imitation route. After all, he was a traverser with the system's father in his hands, so he should be a little arrogant.

The path that Zhang Nuo wants to take is very simple. He will just watch from the sidelines and point out the general path for everyone, so as to avoid walking on some deformed paths and causing a lot of waste of resources.

However, everyone is allowed to make mistakes, and everyone is allowed to try. Only in this way can we truly create new warships that meet the national conditions of the Tang Dynasty and meet the requirements of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Nuo didn't care about Bismarck, Prince of Wales, or Yamato anymore. What he wanted was a new type of warship independently designed and manufactured by Datang.

Ironclad warships are imitations, it doesn’t matter, this is to increase experience for everyone, and we will not build a few ships at all. After everyone is familiar with this new shipbuilding method and the operation method of new ships, the internal combustion engine must also be upgraded. There will be batches of new ships appearing again.

This is Zhang Nuo's thoughts on the future development of the navy. Of course, he knows that aircraft carriers are a good thing, and he also knows that the emergence of missiles in the future will make battleships gradually withdraw from the stage of history.

However, Zhang Nuo hopes that Datang will go through such a journey, accumulate experience along the way, and expand the territory along the way.

It's okay to waste some resources, Australia is still empty, and there are not many people in the Americas, a lot of resources are waiting for Datang to get them.

It's okay to waste some manpower, not to mention other places, just the Indochina Peninsula where I'm going this time, there are a large number of monkey-like slaves waiting for Datang to catch.

What Zhang Nuo wanted was Datang's take-off!

Chapter 862 Li Shimin's Careful Thoughts

The sailors began to board the ship one by one. Everyone undoubtedly liked this new warship Zhang Nuo very much. After all, they are still fighters, and as long as they are fighters, there is no one who does not like powerful weapons.

But controlling this epoch-making weaponry is not an easy task.

They have already studied for a period of time before coming here, of course, they all learned through books and models, and they finally passed the exam and achieved excellent results before they could stand out in various positions.

What they need now is to practice what they have learned before on this Dingyuan ship.

Li Shimin immediately rushed to the Dingyuan with great enthusiasm, but Zhang Nuo ignored him, as long as Li Shimin didn't go to sea, it would be fine. In today's Datang, the safest place is the barracks.

Zhang Nuo didn't have time to take care of that old boy Li Shimin, now he managed to escape from Chang'an City, he was like a horse Fang Nanshan, but he started to have fun, he couldn't calm down if he didn't make a fuss for a few days.

What Zhang Nuo has to do now is very simple, find a comfortable big bed, and sleep well for a day or two first.

That's right, it's just sleeping. Zhang Nuo worked tirelessly at the bicycle factory for half a month before, and then rushed to the navy without stopping. Seeing that there are still a lot of things to do, this is not a good time Take a nap and rest, what else are you going to do?

Zhang Nuo slept for a whole day. He was really exhausted before. The process of constantly dealing with various affairs and communicating with people was simply a torment for him.

Maybe some workaholics would like this kind of life, but for a salty fish like Zhang Nuo, it was a real pain.

And when Zhang Nuo was sleeping and Li Shimin was having fun, the new issue of Datang Daily began to publish an article titled "Tianzhu Wolf's Ambition, Invading Our Territory, Datang Vows Revenge" on the front page.

Good guy, editor-in-chief Wei Zhengwei has performed super-level in this article, scolding Tianzhuna from head to toe.

In fact, when Lao Wei asked him to write some things before, he was still quite responsive. After all, not everyone can be like Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo. They are shameless about some things, as long as they can get a fig leaf to make sense of it. of.

Lao Wei is a traditional literati, and he is still the kind with a strong character, so for the tasks assigned by Li Shimin or Zhang Nuo from time to time, although he has to complete the tasks assigned by Li Shimin or Zhang Nuo from time to time, it is nonsense to say that he agrees with them. .

But this time is different, Tianzhu really attacked Nanzhao, this is unbearable for Old Wei.

Where is Nanzhao, it is on the edge of Datang, that is the vassal state of Datang, and if Tianzhu beat Nanzhao, it would be the same as beating Datang.

Wei Zheng thinks the same as all Tang people, my feudal state is my territory, if you beat my feudal state, you won't give me face, and if you don't give me face, I will beat you.

And Wei Zheng, who burst out with subjective initiative, stunned everyone else with his literary talent, logic, and organization. Damn, he was born as an admonisher. When this long-lost firepower is fully fired, is this effect really special? yes.

However, a good effect is also necessary. With the foundation of public opinion, Li Chengqian, as a child who took care of his father's house, is now considered a professional supervisor of the country with proficiency in business.

After waiting for a day or two for the comments in the newspaper to ferment, he turned around and threw out a front-page article written by himself.

There are quite a lot of quotations and classics written in it, but in fact, let’s sum it up, it’s just one meaning, Tianzhu’s children don’t talk about martial arts, Datang decided to teach him to be a man, his father has decided to drive himself to conquer, and Datang also set off at the same time His Royal Highness King Qin, and as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he will sincerely pray for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the rear, and at the same time, he will also do a good job in logistics and take good care of his family.

Well, the little boy has grown up slowly in the past few years, and he has become more and more cautious, and he will praise himself by the way when he praises his father for stepping on Tianzhu.

However, Zhang Nuo doesn't care about this level of self-promotion, and Li Shimin doesn't care either, because in his opinion, it's best for Li Chengqian to grow up quickly, and then take over his burden, so that he can drag Zhang Nuo everywhere Waves.

Of course, the main reason is also because Li Chengqian's point of view in the article is actually very in place, and what he positions himself is logistics support and housekeeping.

If Li Chengqian said that he would come to help fight the war, you can see whether Li Shimin beat up people, just kidding, he spent so much thought and effort to finally get a chance to come out to command the army, how could he run away because of his own son? go back!

God knows how long it will be before it is his turn to come out again after this time, and sometimes even if Li Shimin thinks a little pessimistically, he may not have the opportunity to see the scenery of other places, or really occupy a place until after he really abdicates.
