Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2080 The style of the Tang Dynasty, the heart of Jialong

"Mr. Kuroda, please pass on the order. Our army will only attack Jinan in this battle! If anyone dares to cause trouble, he will be killed!" Yi Sunchen said with a serious look.

This is their top priority in this battle!

Entering Qingzhou along the Yellow River, there is naturally not only one county close to the Yellow River, but Dou Jiande's territory has only one county close to the Yellow River.

When they attack Dou Jiande's territory at this time, the other princes will just verbally clamor, but in fact they will most likely choose to sit on the sidelines.

In fact, the person who was just cheated by Dou Jiande's forces might even applaud him!

Therefore, although the territory of Liu Bei's forces is equally empty at this time, they cannot take action at this time!

Whether it is from the immediate perspective or from the perspective of long-term interests, Jinan is also the only place they can attack.

Their purpose this time was to grab a fortune, and there was no need to occupy so many territories. Just one Jinan was enough.

After all, they come from afar, and there are only so many ships. If you grab too many, it won't be of any use if you can't pull them away in the end.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, but if there are those who disobey orders, even without Mr. Li, I will not show mercy!"

In history, Jiuki Jialong absorbed the advantages of old warships, Ming Dynasty ships and European ships, and designed and manufactured a brand new warship. The huge hull is constructed of the finest wood, and the outermost layer is covered with iron plates for reinforcement and fire retardancy. This is the famous "ironclad ship" during Japan's Warring States Period. The ships were also equipped with firearms, and each ship was equipped with three cannons, which were rare at the time.

Yi Sun-shin brought a new type of warship, the tortoise-shell ship, to the Li-Tang Navy, while Gugui Jialong brought an iron-clad ship to the Li-Tang Navy.

Secondly, Gugui Jialong, like Yi Sun-shin, made outstanding contributions to the development of Li Tang Navy.

First of all, Jiuki Jiarong was the first Japanese to surrender to Li Tang. Whether it was during the war to conquer the Japanese or later in the Tang-Qin war, Jiuki Jiarong made great achievements because of his bravery and bravery in battle. .

Among the many Japanese who surrendered to Li Tang, Jiugui Jialong had the highest status and was even given the surname Li. Therefore, outsiders now call him Li Jialong, not Jiugui Jialong.

Jesuit missionaries who came to Japan called this kind of ship "the largest and most gorgeous ship in Japan, very much like a ship in Portugal's hometown." At that time, Portugal did have a kind of warship with a cabin wider than the hull. Due to its poor ocean navigation ability, it never sailed to Japan.

Therefore, Jialong's concept is surprisingly consistent with the concept of warships in Western Europe at that time. However, the use of iron armor on the surface of the ship's hull was three hundred years earlier than in the West. The first armored ships in the West were put into actual combat during the Russo-Turkish War in the 19th century.

"Yaki-kun! Your Excellency, this time can be regarded as a return to the old place!" In another position on the ship, Kuki Yoshiro looked at the land of the big man in the distance and said with a smile.

"Li Jun! The last time I went on an expedition with Lord Oda, I came not to Qingzhou, but to Xuzhou. The land of the Han Dynasty is indeed vast!" Yamata no Orochi lay on the side and lazily basked in the sun. .

Although Kuki Yoshitaka allowed the armored ship to appear in this era across history, there were no artillery in this era, so small catapults were used instead.

When he was in Japan, Jiaki Jialong actually had the design concept of an iron-clad ship. However, the Japanese country at that time was unable to turn his idea of ​​an iron-clad ship into reality in terms of manpower, material and resources.

It was not until Li Tang that he received support from Li Shimin to a certain extent and began to try. However, although Jiuki Jialong transformed his idea into reality, the armored ships were still not installed on a large scale in Li Tang, and only a few were built.

Without him, as far as Li Tang was concerned, he also did not have the national strength to field armored ships on a large scale. He only built a few ships to use as his trump card.

In addition, the armored ship was not suitable for expeditions, so it did not participate in this combat mission.

"Although the land of the Han Dynasty is vast, one day it will belong to me, the Tang Dynasty!" At this moment, Li Jialong's eyes seemed to have light.

There is no doubt that in the history of the Tang Dynasty, the ruling group adopted an open and inclusive attitude towards culture, which was reflected in respect for religious beliefs, promotion of literature and art, reform of national systems, and openness to social life, etc. In terms of power, it can be said that Datang at that time was a truly global empire.

The Li Tang of this era, which was also founded by Li Yuan and Li Shimin father and son, may not be as powerful as the Tang Dynasty in history, but it is open and inclusive and has the same lineage.

Jiugui Jialong was just like the numerous foreign generals who existed in the Tang Dynasty in history. He was impressed by the open and tolerant Tang Dynasty and by Li Shimin's magnanimity.

Although there were many Japanese who defected to the Tang Dynasty, those who sincerely wanted to be a Tang person, rather than a Japanese, like Li Jialong, were still a small minority.

But Baqi couldn't help but curl his lips in a corner where the other party couldn't see him. After being given the surname Li, he really thought of himself as a Tang Dynasty person. I don't know what to say!

"It's coming! General Jialong, you and General Baqi will lead three thousand soldiers as the vanguard! Open the way first!" Looking at the river bank that was almost visible, Li Sunchen sent someone to give Li Jialong an order.

Although according to the intelligence they received, Qingzhou was extremely empty at this time, but out of caution, Yi Sun-shin still excluded some people to test it out.

In fact, Qingzhou is at its most empty at this time.

It can be said that any troops coming at this time may be able to wreak havoc on Qingzhou.

Su Qin and Di Qing rebelled, and Dou Jiande's forces have all gathered in Xuzhou. Qingzhou can be said to have been abandoned by them.

After all, trading a little territory for the victory of the entire Central Plains War, and then the victory of the Southern War, is definitely a worthwhile deal!

But it happened that Liu Bei's troops at this time also retreated into the Central Plains. Even if Dou Jiande's territory in Qingzhou was empty, he could not spare the troops to fight.

Although Yuan Shao and Qin Zheng can grit their teeth and draw out a force that can take advantage of this.

However, the problem is that Dou Jiande's territory is completely surrounded by Liu Bei's territory. They cannot take advantage of this advantage even if they want to.

But it happened that Li Tang, who came from afar, took advantage of this.
