Chapter 1533 Navy Conception
"Dare to ask how about water warfare?" Zhang Shun thought for a while, and felt that he should not be preconceived about water warfare tactics, and had to consult professionals first.

Although this Zhao Liangdong is not considered a good general, he has been promoted all the way up, and he understands it quite well.

Hearing this, he couldn't help sorting out his voice, and then he opened his mouth to explain: "Sea battles are not the same as land battles. There is no other way to fight at sea. A big ship wins a small boat, a big gun wins a small gun, many ships win a few ships, and many guns win a few guns." That's all'."

"Therefore, the method of naval warfare is to put weapons first, followed by human ears!"

"Huh?" Hearing Zhao Liangdong's words, Zhang Shun couldn't help but look at him in surprise, and beckoned him to continue talking.

"Equipment is fine, and before the battle, send cruise ships first to scout out where the enemy is, and attack them together." When Zhao Liangdong saw what Zhang Shun was interested in, he couldn't help continuing to show off.

"At the beginning of the battle, the two sides first used guns to damage their ships and kill their soldiers. Second, rockets, fire guns, and oil tanks burned their ships and shot sticks to damage their ships."

"When the two sides meet in battle, they will use smoke pots and limes to disrupt the formation, and then jump off the boat and fight hand-to-hand to determine the outcome."

"In addition to this, there are also 'fire boats', which carry gunpowder, sulfur, etc., to burn their warships; install rams on the bow to sink enemy ships, and so on. And feet."

"Oh?" Zhang Shun pondered for a moment when he heard the words, and then he took a moment to understand. Then the sea battle was not the same as the artillery confrontation he imagined, and he hurriedly asked about the details.

Zhang Shun asked for a long time, but Zhao Liangdong also spoke clearly and logically.

It was only after listening for a long time that Zhang Shun realized that Zhao Liangdong was just parroting his tongue, mostly paraphrasing other people's words.

If we carefully distinguish, the "navy" mentioned by Zhao Liangdong is just a coastal navy, and most of its preset combat areas are just near the coastal islands.

Therefore, the tactics it uses include a lot of fire attack, gang jumping, smashing, landing and so on.

Such a tactic, adapted to such a combat environment, is roughly similar to the tactic of "using the sea to control the land" of later generations.

However, such a navy is only suitable for coastal operations, it is weak in offshore operations, and it is completely incapable of ocean operations. This is completely inconsistent with Zhang Shun's positioning of the navy as a new type of sea force.

In Zhang Shun's heart, he at least builds a marine navy.

This navy can not only go north to support the Dongjiang River, but can even further re-open Lushun, Jinzhou and other places, completely threatening the Houjin flank.

And it should have the ability to fight a decisive battle with the Remnant Navy, so that in the next unification war, the coast, Taiwan, Hainan and other places can be completely pacified.

It can not only fight against Zheng Zhilong, the current maritime overlord, but also resist the navies of powerful countries such as the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain.

Even in the not-too-distant future, it will be able to compete with ocean powers such as the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain for the high profits of the age of great voyages.

However, there is always a difference between dreams and reality, and Zhang Shun's difference is indeed a bit big.

However, as the saying goes: a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and a nine-foot platform begins with the foundation of soil.

Although the current conditions are a bit poor, Zhang Shunyuan's grand vision cannot be supported.

"In this way, one is a lieutenant general sent to you by this king, and he can be regarded as your apprentice!" Zhang Shun pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind.

"One is that this king is going to strengthen the Tianjin navy."

"According to my opinion, the navy can strengthen these aspects."

"One is to replace the artillery. Replace the original JJFron machine on the ship with a new type of artillery to strengthen the firepower."

"One is to increase the navy's marine corps to specifically strengthen the navy's landing and land combat capabilities."

"The other one is to design a new type of artillery warship for full-time maritime combat. What do you think?"

"Just rely on King Shun to make the decision!" As a surrendered general, Zhao Liangdong didn't dare to say no, so he quickly agreed.

"The replacement of the artillery should be completed as soon as possible and adapt as soon as possible." Seeing that Zhao Liangdong had no resentment on his face, Zhang Shun nodded in satisfaction.

"For the navy and marine corps, the king will mobilize soldiers to form it as soon as possible, and the navy will be needed for training."

"It's best, the design of the new warship is finished, and the navy needs more opinions and trials. After the trials are completed, the final shape will be finalized, and then mass construction will be carried out!"

Zhang Shun was methodical, ordering Zhao Liangdong one by one.

Originally, Zhao Liangdong was a little worried that King Shun would kill the donkey, but when the new lieutenant general learned water warfare, he let himself stand aside.

As a result, after listening to some of Zhang Shun's ideas, he realized that Zhang Shun had a grand plan.

He listened for a while, hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but said: "The construction of warships is based on hundreds of years of solid wood. There are no deep mountains and old forests near Tianjin. Your Highness still needs to make preparations early."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun laughed when he heard the words: "There are no deep mountains and old forests in Tianjin, no solid wood for shipbuilding, but there are countless in Liaodong."

"If Liaodong can be regained, the century-old trees will have everything that one expects, so what is missing?"

Zhao Liangdong was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Even the sources of timber for shipbuilding have been thought through. It seems that His Royal Highness King Shun really wants to build a huge navy!

He hastened to promise: "Your Highness, just give orders, and all subordinates will do their best to deal with the navy!"

"Okay, if it's done well, you're more than just the general soldier of Tianjin!" Zhang Shun couldn't help but assured Zhao Liangdong when he saw that Zhao Liangdong was so kind.

Seeing the guarantee, Zhao Liangdong became more and more excited, and couldn't help but continued to explain: "This water battle is different from the land battle."

"This Tianjin navy is stationed at Dagukou."

"The Dagu mouth is on the Haihe River, which is the south bank of the mouth of the Dagu River."

"That's why this navy can not only cross the four seas, but also pass through canals. It can be said that it is an important place to reach the capital!"

"From my subordinate's point of view, if given time, this Dagukou and its Tianjin Wei will become my capital's important maritime town!"

The so-called Dagu River is actually the old name of Haihe River in later generations.Because it goes directly to the sea, it was gradually called Haihe River from the end of Ming Dynasty.

The Haihe River is composed of the main stream and five branches of the North Canal, Yongding River, Daqing River, Ziya River and South Canal.

Among them, the South Canal is the section of the Grand Canal from south to north, while the North Canal is the section from the Haihe River through the capital to Miyun.

As Zhao Liangdong said, if there is a navy that controls the Dagukou, it will not only cut off the Grand Canal to the east, but also threaten the capital.

However, limited by the times, this Zhao Liangdong is still a mix of river division and sea division, thinking that sea ships can reach the capital against the current.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun suddenly thought that in history, the Eight-Power Allied Forces landed here, and then captured Tianjin and Beijing, forcing the then Qing government to sign the "Xin Chou Treaty" that humiliated the country and compensated 9.8 million taels of silver.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun became more determined to build a powerful navy capable of navigating all over the world.
