After Wei Liguo, he placed the center of his strategy on land, and even adopted a policy of closed-door and sea-banning. Naturally, few people mentioned the recovery of Qiongyi and Yizhou.

  Li Peizhen alone, adhering to the teachings of the ancestors, has always strived to strengthen the navy and regain lost ground.

  Li Peizhen's great-grandfather asked the emperor at the time to send troops many times, and finally got the answer. He formed the most powerful navy since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty to go to Yizhou. However, due to inexperience, he encountered a typhoon and the entire fleet suffered heavy casualties. The great-grandfather also died in the storm, and finally the fleet could only return to the country.

  After this incident, the status of Li Peizhen's family in Wei's country was greatly reduced, and it no longer had the original prestige.

  Li Peizhen's grandfather was not reconciled, he trained sailors in the South China Sea, built warships, and assured the emperor that he could take down the two islands with the head of Xiang Shang, and the emperor finally reluctantly agreed with him to send troops.

  This time the fleet did not encounter a typhoon, but Father Li far underestimated the strength of the opponent. The Liang Dynasty survivors in Qiongyi and Yizhou knew that their overall strength was like ants compared to Dawei, and the only two islands depended on the navy! Therefore, they All the energy was spent on consolidating the coastal defense.

  However, the Wei army had not fought a naval battle for many years, and the Wei army suffered a disastrous defeat, and Li Peizhen's grandfather also tried his best.

  This failure completely crushed Li Peizhen's family under the Five Elements Mountain and could not turn over.

  Nevertheless, Li Peizhen's father

  Still keeping in mind the ancestral teachings, he spent his whole life looking for the design of new warships, exploring the naval strength of Qiongyi and Yizhou, studying the topographical maps and battle plans of the two states, etc.

  He repeatedly made comments to the military aircraft office, asking to restart the plan to recover the two islands, but it has not been adopted.

  By the time of Li Peizhen's generation, the family was even more declining. Li Peizhen only joined a small Taihu Colonel, but he was still keen on studying naval strategies, but his superiors and colleagues around him only regarded him as a lunatic.

  If it wasn't for a golden plaque handwritten by Emperor Taiwu handed down from his ancestors, there would still be some traces of his ancestors, and he might even have lost his position as a school official.

  Although Li Peizhen was unpopular, he was indeed very capable, so the emperor summoned the navy generals, and Dong Ruisi reluctantly agreed to bring him with him.

  Only then did Li Peizhen make a commotion outside the hall just now.

  After listening to Li Peizhen's words, Yan Ge pondered for a long time and said nothing.

  "Teng!"

  Suddenly, Yan Ge stood up from the dragon chair.

  He walked down the steps quickly, came to Li Peizhen, held his hand and said: "Li Peizhen, your family is the hero of our great Wei, I would like to thank your family for their efforts for the unification of the country for hundreds of years. !"

  Li Peizhen never imagined that the emperor would express his gratitude to him, his nose was sour, his blood rushed to his forehead, and his eyes immediately.

  Red: "Your Majesty, it is our duty to be loyal to the country!"

  At this time, Dong Ruisi on the side was already dumbfounded, he really didn't understand that a little schoolmaster who spoke out of bounds words every day would be so highly regarded by the emperor.

  Yan Ge patted Li Peizhen on the shoulder and said: "Li Peizhen! I am here to tell you today that Qiongzhou and Yizhou, I must take back the hands of the Great Wei, no matter how much money and soldiers are sacrificed, Kyushu must be unified. !"

  "emperor!"

  Li Peizhen called out.

  "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

  Li Peizhen knelt on the ground and cried while shouting.

  Since his grandfather's time, his family has been ridiculed and ridiculed so much, and he has endured humiliation until today, and finally he has waited for a bright master who is determined to unify the great cause, how can he not be excited! "Li Peizhen, now you come and tell me, you What do you think about our current navy in Great Wei, and how much do you know about the navy in Qiongyi and Yizhou?"

  Yan Ge asked.

  "As ordered!"

  Li Peizhen wiped his eyes, took out a few maps from his arms and placed them on the table, "Your Majesty, please take a look!"

  "This is the distribution map of my Great Wei Navy.

  It can be seen that the naval forces of Great Wei have been extremely shrunk, and there are only a few provinces with established naval forces, among which the most powerful are the Bohai Navy, Jiangning Navy and Jinghu Navy."

  "The Bohai Sea Navy has 40 building ships, 70 fighting ships, 150 stern ships, and [-] sailors and soldiers.

  The Jiangning Navy has more than 20 building ships, more than 5 fighting ships, 120 squatters, and [-] sailors and soldiers.

  The strength of the Jinghu navy is almost the same as that of the Jiangning navy."

  "As for the naval forces in Qiongyi and Yizhou.

  Our military department of the Wei Dynasty has never done any spying on this, and the specific situation is still obtained by the officials from merchants who trade between the two islands and foreign countries in the South China Sea."

  Feilu reminds you: three things to read, collect and push

Chapter 229 Is the official too small?

  "There are more than [-] warships in Qiongzhou, and the number of navies exceeds [-]! The naval forces in Yizhou are even stronger, with more than [-] warships and more than [-] navy! The coast is also dissatisfied with the outposts, the towers and the stone forts;

  "The biggest problem is not the difference in quantity. The two islands also have warships that are far more advanced than those of Dawei. Our navy has almost no strength to fight back! Qiongzhou has Shenhuo ships, which are light and move very fast. If you're not careful, the entire fleet will perish in a sea of ​​fire."

  "Yizhou is even more powerful. They have arrogant and powerful warships - slap ships. Each slap ship is equipped with many powerful and terrifying slap sticks. Broken to pieces, the ship destroyed, the navy led by my grandfather was defeated by this kind of ship-beating!"

  "In addition, our soldiers are far behind the enemy in terms of naval combat experience and naval combat proficiency!"

  After listening to Li Peizhen finish, Yan Ge couldn't help supporting his forehead.

  In this way, Wei State's naval power is still far behind the two islands, and it is not easy to conquer the two islands.

  Yan Ge said dejectedly: "So, if I want to conquer Qiongyi and Yizhou in a short period of time, it's just a fantasy."

  A smile appeared on Li Peizhen's face: "Your Majesty, that's not the case.

  The power comparison just mentioned by the minister is based on the fact that the Great Wei did not pay attention to the navy before.

  But now that the Great Wei country is strong and the world is submissive, as long as you spend a little bit of thought on strengthening the navy and formulate an appropriate development strategy, the reversal of form is only a flick of a finger!"

  Yan Ge said: "Well then, if I order you to be the admiral of the navy, how will you develop our navy!"

  Li Peizhen's heart jumped, "Admiral of the Navy"

  These four words mean a lot to him.

  He straightened his back and said: "The first step is naturally to expand the army. I have a large number of people in the Wei Dynasty. First, we will expand the number of the navy to more than double the enemy's number, and occupy an absolute advantage in terms of numbers!" But this is not enough, we It is necessary to train soldiers who are suitable for maritime combat! Nowadays, the navy of the Great Wei is mostly trained between lakes and seas.

  Therefore, when recruiting troops, we should focus on selecting people who are good at swimming in coastal areas, and then concentrate on training, so that we can quickly adapt to maritime operations."

  "Originally, the elite navy soldiers of Neihu can also be dispatched to the coastal areas for training. After months of tempering, they can basically master the essentials of naval warfare."

  Li Peizhen paused for a while and continued: "The second step is to build a ship, the naval battle, the strength of the warship is decisive, without a sufficiently powerful warship, no matter how many soldiers are only rootless duckweed.

  We need to build more ships, build big ships, and also build powerful warships that can compete with Shenhuo ships and beat ships, only in this way can we be invincible in naval battles!"

  "Thirdly, we need to cultivate excellent marines. Excuse me, but there are almost no generals in Great Wei who are good at naval warfare, except for a few generals from the Bohai Sea Division! Because, if Your Majesty wants to quickly improve the combat effectiveness of our navy , Might as well hire navy generals from the countries of Sri Buddha, Jade, and Zawa in the South China Sea to train the Great Wei's own naval warfare talents."

  "Fourth, we must create naval tactics that suit the great Wei himself.

  Regarding this point, my father absorbed the tactics handed down from his ancestors, worked hard, and finally wrote "Zhenhai Yaoshu".

  The book records twenty-eight kinds of fleet formations, and the subordinate officials have already mastered them.

  As long as you practice it, you will be able to shine on the battlefield!"

  "Fifth, know yourself and the enemy, and you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles.

  The imperial court should send people to spy on the more specific strength of the navy on the two islands, including the distribution of coastal defenses, leading troops, etc., and obtain detailed combat maps, so that you will not lose your way during the battle, and you will be able to target your goals."

  After Li Peizhen finished speaking, Yan Ge couldn't help clapping.

  If he was moved by Li Peizhen's family's spirit of serving the country just now, he is now impressed by Li Peizhen's talent.

  If Great Wei had such a navy admiral, why wouldn't the navy be able to grow stronger! "Li Peizhen obeys orders!"

  Yan Ge shouted.

  "The minister is here!"

  Li Peizhen knelt down with sincerity and fear.

  "I named you a third-rank Pingyi general, commanding the South China Sea navy admiral, and taking full responsibility for the recovery of the Qiongyi and Qiongyi states from now on.

  You must set up an invincible navy for me, I will not only take back the lost land, but in the future I will go far and wide to conquer all the barbarians!"

  Li Peizhen's eyes widened, she didn't seem to think that happiness would come so suddenly, she stood still and even forgot to accept the order.

  On the other side, Dong Ruisi and Li Peizhen were even more shocked, her chin almost dropped to the ground.

  That is the third-rank Pingyi general, and the same rank as the governor of a province! Admiral of the South China Sea Navy, the entire South China Sea fleet is under his jurisdiction! A Taihu captain, in a blink of an eye, became the Jiangning water that made him The existence that Shidutong looks up to, how exciting the changes in life! "What's wrong with Li Peizhen, I think the official I gave you is too small"

  Yan Ge said jokingly.

  "No no no, it's the emperor's grace, and the minister is already grateful, I don't know what to say!"

  Li Peizhen said in tears, "Your Majesty, the corpse of the lower official is in the South China Sea, and I will also take the Qiongyi states for you!"

  Yan Ge said: "Then don't! As long as you take over Qiongyi and Yizhou, you are the second-rank General Zhenhai, and I am still waiting for you to lay more ground for me in the future."

  After Li Peizhen's excitement calmed down a little, Yan Ge asked, "Peizhen, I will ask Fan Li to allocate the cost of setting up the navy, and Jiang Ziya and Chen Lei from the military will also fully assist.

  As for the borrowing of foreign admirals, Xue Liren of Honglu Temple will also negotiate for you.

  If you think there will be any difficulties, please mention it with me."

  Li Peizhen clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I don't worry about money or manpower, but there is one thing that needs to be reported to Your Majesty."

  "you say."

  "The soul of the navy lies in warships. If I, the Great Wei, cannot develop a warship that can compete with the Shenhuo ship and the ship, it will still fail miserably.

  After all, Kechen is not a craftsman, even if he worked hard, he could not design a new type of warship, and he still needs professional craftsmen to develop it."

  Yan Ge hurriedly asked: "There are so many skilled craftsmen in the imperial court's weapons supervisors, I should be able to let them develop new types of warships with a single imperial decree."

  Li Peizhen shook his head: "After all, the craftsmen of the Weapons Supervision are not skilled in the sea, and the mechanism for designing land operations is acceptable, but it is difficult to design warships."

  Yan Ge said: "That's good, don't I have a few craftsmen who are good at making warships in Huanghuang Dawei?"

  Li Peizhen said: "I have considered this for a long time. I have visited the famous shipbuilding masters of the Wei Dynasty, and finally found a person. If this person can go out into the mountains and develop warships for His Majesty, the great thing can be accomplished!"

  "Who is so amazing"

  "This person is Kui Nianyun of Lizhou, Mr. Minghu!"

  "Kui Nianyun, who is he to be so admired by you?"
