I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Zhang Nuo also put a lot of thought into this troop that he directly formed himself, so naturally he would not easily let go of these opportunities that can improve the combat effectiveness of the troop and accelerate the growth of the troop.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo not only participated in the seminar seriously, but also put forward his own opinions in a serious manner, and asked everyone to put forward rectification opinions and implement them into practice, instead of just talking about it.

Chapter 735

It was no secret that Zhang Nuo led the entire fleet dangling on the sea, and it was no secret that it was spread by merchant ships passing through the entire strait.

Seeing the uniformly painted warships with people coming and going sailing through the wind and waves, everyone inexplicably felt relieved.

Although pirates are not as rampant as later generations these days, let alone the three-masted sailing ships produced in the port area that are in short supply.However, that doesn't mean it's gone at all.

After all, in any age there are always people who want to make a fortune by doing crooked ways as soon as their brains get hot, especially in the sea. This kind of thing is more difficult but easier to do.

As long as one ship is intercepted, a fortune can be made.

The goods on the bare ship can be sold for a lot of money even on the black market, let alone a good big ship.

However, at present, the fleets that travel between Pyongyang City Port and Dengzhou Port are basically fleets formed by chambers of commerce controlled by Xungui. In the beginning, these fleets were not to guard against pirates, but to resist wind and waves. Never a single boat goes to sea, basically at least three or five boats will go to sea together.

Of course, if there is no almost non-stop logistics demand on both sides, the fleet will not be made to wait so much. After all, delaying time means delaying earning money.

But the huge logistics demand in the port area has smoothed out all these risks. You don’t need to wait for other ships at all. As long as you have space on your ship, let alone three or five ships, even if there are several times more ships, you can get them immediately. Fill you up and tell you to fuck off.

In this way, after all the small fleets come and go, they are not very friendly to pirates.

The sneaky pirates currently sneaking in the strait are basically from the island of Fusang. They discovered a very desperate fact, that is, their small boats can't outrun the big ships of the caravan.

Even if the weather is calm and the sea is calm, the small boats of these ronin are rowing continuously with the wind and manpower. After finally leaning on it, they will suddenly find out, what the hell, why is this boat so much taller than ours?

That's right, compared to Fusang's small boats that originally lagged behind Datang's shipbuilding technology, how could it be compared with the three-masted sailboats that appeared only a thousand years later, with the high sides specially designed to resist wind and waves, It was like a barrier blocking those non-professional pirates.

It's not that they haven't thought about using hooks and claws, but the Tang Dynasty these days, among other things, has that sturdy spirit that is integrated into his bones.

In the words of merchant ship captains and sailors who have been in contact with pirates, it is enough to give you face that His Royal Highness Qin Wang didn’t take people and ships directly to your house to occupy your house, but now you still dare to show your teeth to Datang ?

This is looking for death, I don't need His Royal Highness King Qin to take action, I will take care of you first.

That's right, in the ronin fleets that have appeared so far, all those who dared to rush aboard with hook claws were all taken care of by the sturdy captains and sailors, and none of them succeeded.

Just kidding, no matter what era, those who dare to make a living at sea are all rough and courageous guys, especially the group of Datang, who are 100% from the army, not to mention cruel The top ones have all seen blood. A few chest-high brats dared to come up to grab the boat with a broken knife. Have you asked grandpa?

Although these ronin have not had a successful case so far, they have filled in a lot of human lives, but all the chambers of commerce are a little worried. There are too many ants and they will kill the elephant. They can handle these small boats by themselves, but If there were too many, it would be very good if the men on the boat picked ten fiercely, so why should they fight one hundred alone?

Therefore, when the naval fleet trained and equipped by Zhang Nuoxin set sail, it was immediately welcomed by all passing fleets.

Especially at present, many fleets are still composed of private soldiers recruited under Zhang Nuo's command before, and they have all been trained at the Naval Academy in order to let them know how to be a qualified sailor.

Even sailors have to be trained, let alone captains. In addition to fleet command and combat, in other aspects, the Naval Academy has no secrets about the training of these captains.

Of course, this also has an advantage, that is, once an urgent large-scale battle occurs, these captains will be recruited into the army as soon as possible, and then become a member of the navy.

Even if you don't become the commander of the battleship, but just become the captain of the transportation team, because of the same training school and the same training content, there will be no obstacles to the communication between the two parties.

Therefore, for these merchant ships, the battleship with the fleet command flag and the Qin Wang flag not only represents the navy, but also represents their old superiors and principals. This friendship is completely different.

Almost all merchant ships that saw this flag would approach them to say hello and so on. Zhang Nuo sometimes had to sigh, these people are really enthusiastic.

After the exercise, the fleet naturally went straight to the port of Dengzhou. The navy also has a special berthing area here, which has been planned long ago.

At present, the port area is still the one for both military and civilian purposes, and it will be different in the future. Zhang Nuo has already told Li Shimin that a special military port must be built in the future.

Because the replacement of warships in the future will definitely be much faster than merchant ships. At the same time, in terms of technology, material confidentiality, and security, the army and the local government are not on the same level at all. Right now, there is no way because of the constraints, so the military and civilians share it. have to separate.

Of course, the ever-increasing throughput of civilian terminals is also urging the further expansion of the port. Li Shimin is well aware of this. Today, Li Shimin has some ideas about judging the situation through data. Naturally, Zhang What Nuo said was right.

After the warship was moored, all the boys who had just disembarked were a little excited, because they knew that it would not be long before they would enter Chang'an on His Royal Highness King Qin's magical airship that destroyed Turks and broke Tubo.

For them who have been staying in Pyongyang for a long time, the airship is definitely no stranger, and they can see it every now and then, but no matter how familiar they are, they can only see it from a distance from the ground. This time it is different. Passenger again.

Not to mention anything else, this alone is enough for this group of people to brag about for a long time, not to mention that they didn't get on the airship alone, but flew back to Chang'an with Zhang Nuo, the miraculous King Qin, and it was quite a return home. feel it.

Chapter 736 The Navy Arrives in Chang'an

For Zhang Nuo, the airship has changed from being pleasantly surprised and frightened at the beginning to being regarded as an ordinary means of transportation now, and he even dislikes the slow speed of this thing.

If he hadn't been brave enough, he would have planned to get a few propeller planes out and drive them himself as a means of transportation. After all, in terms of speed, those seemingly simple planes were actually much stronger than airships.

But, Zhang Nuo hesitated many times but didn't dare to make it out. One is that he didn't dare, he really didn't dare, even though he found a lot of books for himself to read, and at the same time he played a flight simulation game at home in Lantian City for a long time. , but still dare not do so.

After all, this thing is different from a car. When driving, as long as you don’t kill yourself and don’t go too fast, in the absence of other cars hitting him, basically there will be no danger with the standard safety features on the car. Knocking your head to death is considered the most serious situation.

But airplanes are different. Basically, as long as there is an accident with that thing, it depends on luck if you want to save your life. Even if it is a relatively slow propeller plane, it is still a thing that flies in the sky.

Don't talk about parachutes, even flying a plane with an umbrella bag on your back may cause an accident, let alone Zhang Nuo hasn't found a plane that can fly with an umbrella bag on your back.

Besides, the vast majority of airplane accidents are actually during take-off and landing. At that time, carrying a parachute is useless. Once an accident happens, you can’t see it. Basically, there are only a bunch of mosaics left.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo would rather just sit on the airship and suffer slowly at the moment, and he doesn't plan to build any planes, but if he has a chance in the future, it would be good to throw one to the research institute for slow research.

But there is also a problem. The aircraft is not a steam engine, but a more advanced internal combustion engine. That thing involves more than just machinery, and there are too many upstream and downstream involved.

Oil extraction, smelting, chemical industry, metal smelting, machinery manufacturing, aerodynamics... too many things are included in it.

Now the research institute is still concentrating on how to increase the power of the steam engine. Without a thorough understanding of these things, Zhang Nuo will not promote the research of internal combustion engines at all.

If it is said that Zhang Nuo was a little reckless when he took out various technologies at the beginning, then he has become more cautious now.

Maybe it's because he has been in Datang for a long time, or maybe it's because he has really seen too many things. He clearly knows that blindly and disorderly promotion of technological development will only bring about one result, that is, the entire technological tree Either it will be crooked because of the hurricane rush, or it will completely obliterate the creativity of the researchers.

The feeling that there is information to help you no matter what you study, will completely make those researchers lose the motivation to pursue the truth and create new things, and the original creativity and passion in their minds will gradually lose their vitality because of this easy-to-reach knowledge .

After all, why bother to study the knowledge that can be obtained easily?

Therefore, Zhang Nuo not only blocked the new technology, but also sorted out the things he had produced before. Except for the textbooks from elementary school to high school, Zhang Nuo did not produce any new materials.

To be honest, having complete knowledge from elementary school to high school, especially the knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry, is enough for researchers in this era to lay a solid foundation, and it is even more enough for them to study their own projects.

At the same time, this is also a kind of screening. Only those who can master this knowledge proficiently and have the desire to continue to study will be eligible to enter the research institute for more detailed research.

And even if these people start researching, they can only do their own research first. After the research reaches a certain level and the results are obtained, Zhang Nuo will open his private library to them after he submits it to Zhang Nuo for review. All kinds of knowledge come out.

In fact, the things in it are not particularly advanced things, they are the textbooks of various universities, but one advantage is that it contains a lot of things, because the classification of subjects in later generations is becoming more and more detailed, so each school has its own. Advantageous disciplines and academic atmosphere, an excellent textbook can actually allow these people to figure out the direction in their own research fields.

Speaking of the airship, when they first boarded the airship, the boys in the navy couldn't help being curious. They not only ran around from time to time, but also wanted to go into some forbidden places to "explore the secrets".Of course, what they can gain is two more footprints on their buttocks.

The people who operate the airship today are not the same group of researchers as before. Those researchers now have their own research projects, and they will only be responsible for regular inspections of the airship, and at the same time send one or two people with the ship to serve as technical guidance.

Now the airship is operated by Zhang Nuo's personal guards. Almost all of them are veterans. Maybe others will be concerned about the identity of these navy brats, but for those who follow every day Behind Zhang Nuo, Li Shimin's personal guards could be seen from time to time saying, these kids are just like the juniors in the family, if you want to be mischievous, kicking you is nothing.

And after almost half a day of flying, these little bastards finally calmed down. After all, the flying process of the airship is actually quite boring. From the very beginning, when you see a cloud, you have to make a fuss for a while until you see the white sky. Yunhai felt bored, but it was really fast.

The flight of the airship is like this, smooth, slow but boring, but fortunately, the transportation capacity is strong.

Otherwise, the current Datang really can't find a transportation method that can transport hundreds of people as quickly as an airship.

Of course, it is not without cost to drag hundreds of people to Chang'an at once this time, at least most of the people are actually crowded in the warehouse.

It is not a comfortable experience to sit on the ground in that poor place for a long time, but seeing the name of the airship and the novel experience, it seems that everyone can hold on?

At noon the next day, the airship flew to Chang'an as scheduled. It was the first time to see Chang'an City from a high altitude, which was a very wonderful experience for these little boys on the airship.

Even what was a bit unbearable before has become indifferent now, after all, this kind of experience is really rare.

Zhang Nuo looked at the city of Chang'an below, and then at the gang of youngsters who had already changed into navy uniforms, and suddenly came up with an idea, it seems, can they make them more majestic?

Chapter 737 Chang'an New Scenery

For the people of Chang'an City, airships are no longer a rare thing. Although they don't know how such a big "ship" flies, this does not prevent them from being able to hold their hands in front of relatives who came to seek refuge from other places. Arrogantly pointing at the airship flying in the sky, showing off proudly.

"Did you see that thing? It's called an airship. It was made by His Royal Highness Qin Wang and his old man. This thing can only be seen often in Chang'an City!"

"You must know that this thing is amazing. The Turks are powerful. A few years ago, when His Majesty first ascended the throne, he went to the edge of Chang'an, but now, with this thing, people on the ground, houses and everything can be seen clearly. It’s so clear, it’s still possible to send down thunder from the sky!”

"That's how Turkic was found by the old man King Qin and stewed with a spoon. Tubo was also subdued by this airship directly to the king's capital. Is it awesome?"

"Haha, this is a view that can only be seen in Chang'an City!"

If this kind of bragging has never been cut off in Chang'an City, and it is even too much, if someone in my family is in the personal guard army of His Royal Highness King Qin, and flew to many places with His Highness King Qin, that is called A proud one.

Faced with this situation, generally speaking, those relatives who came to Chang'an City from other places would open their mouths wide and look at the monster-like airship flying in the sky, unable to speak for a long time.

This has also become a reserved item for the people of Chang'an City facing relatives from other places, and they never tire of it.

The old people in Chang'an City are very familiar with this airship. They can clearly tell when this airship took off and landed recently. They all knew exactly what the airship had brought back from Korea.

After all, these news are not classified information at all, and the protection of the airship is just to keep the idlers away!

But even those who are familiar with airships are still confused today.

Because today the airship neither docked at its own airship field, nor flew directly to the palace as usual, but stopped directly at the gate of Chang'an City swaggeringly.

What is this for?

Everyone was dumbfounded, why did His Highness King Qin stop at the gate of the city, and the unloading was not here.

But ignorance does not mean that these people are stupid. Seeing the airship coming down straight, the sergeant in charge of guarding the city gate hurriedly drove away the idlers.

What is His Royal Highness King Qin's status in the Tang Dynasty? Do you have to discuss some things with ordinary people like them?

Since the old man wants to land at the gate of the city, there is a reason for him to land at the gate of the city. It is only reasonable for the big guy to make room quickly.

Sure enough, as soon as the airship came to a complete stop, the rear cargo door opened, and young men in uniform white uniforms filed down from above.

The last one to come down was naturally Zhang Nuo. He just gave an order, and the officers and sailors who had already been trained below hurriedly lined up.

With a sound that is very unfamiliar to others, Zhang Nuo has been familiar with the passwords such as "stand at attention", "take a rest", "report the number", "look right", "look forward" and so on in Zhang Nuo's mind for many years. Report one by one.

Just after coming down, the young navy boys who were still a little bit tired now lined up in small squares with ships as the unit, with their chests up and their heads up like a conditioned reflex.

Looking at the neat group of people in front of him, Zhang Nuo took out an electric horn and shouted loudly,

"Boys, I know that you are all Guanzhong children from Chang'an City. I have trained you for a long time, and I finally saw you graduate. However, the elders in your hometown have never seen you after training!"

"So, I will give you a chance to enter Chang'an from here, and then enter the imperial palace through Zhuque Street, so that your hometown elders, relatives and friends can take a good look at what you will look like after training!"

"So, everyone, the captains lead the team, target the palace, follow my car, and set off!"

Zhang Nuo's decision was actually an idea that came to his mind after seeing these well-dressed youngsters on the airship, but he felt that not only these youngsters would like it, but even the people in Chang'an City would like it. Even the happiest one should be Li Shimin who is still in the palace at the moment.

Li Shimin always enjoys this kind of thing that can show off his military strength.

Of course, what Zhang Nuo said just now is not wrong. In fact, this is also the time for the second generation of the army and the children of Guanzhong to show themselves to their parents and folks.

Zhang Nuo waved his hand again, and a car that was stored in the system warehouse and followed wherever he went appeared directly beside him, and Cao Xing also got in the car very consciously and sat in the driver's seat.

For marching in a row, the navy cubs who have been drilled to death in the naval academy are very familiar with it.

However, in the past, they just walked back and forth on the school playground, how could they feel like walking in Chang'an City now, you must know that this is their hometown, and their relatives and friends all live here.

And they all believed that, with the deep-seated urination of Chang'an people, the scene at the gate of the city must have been widely spread. watching.

Therefore, following behind Zhang Nuo's deliberately slowed-down car, the group of youngsters who often complained that queue practice was unnecessary, lined up in a horizontal and vertical queue that no one had ever seen before. Step by step, walking is a majestic, that is a vigorous.

No matter how the people next to him applauded, and even the family members shouted from time to time, they pretended not to hear it!

They know that this is His Royal Highness Qin Wang, and their principal specially made it. A show that belongs to them, if you want to make a show, there will be opportunities to make a show in the future, but now, they will go all out to make this show a good one. beautiful.

So, even though the journey was several kilometers long this time, no one complained of suffering or tiredness, and no one fell behind or stepped in disorder. All the neat phalanxes were dressed like this, and no one had ever seen them before, but Absolutely good-looking and energetic military uniforms, walked through the city of Chang'an.

On this day in Chang'an City, it seemed that the stop button was pressed. Everyone crowded on the side of the road, looking at this special team with excitement. This is Datang's team, this is their children, this is Their pride, this is also the new scenery of Chang'an City!

Chapter 738

Li Shimin didn't even stay in the palace, he had received the news a long time ago, and waited directly at the gate of the palace.

Standing on top of the gate of the imperial palace, Li Shimin looked at the phalanxes approaching from a distance, and almost made his mouth crooked with a smile.

Damn, why does brother Zhang Nuo always come up with something different from others? It turns out that the sergeants can still be so energetic and mighty after training.

Look at those people, they were all famously difficult monkeys who used to roll around in the army, but now Zhang Nuo took care of them very well.

And the generals crowded around Li Shimin at this time also laughed at this time, they are all old soldiers, and they are different from the civil servants on the other side who only know how to watch the fun.

They clearly know that if a troop can march so neatly for a long time, it proves that the troop has really complied with orders and prohibitions.

And a highly disciplined army, no matter what other skills it has, at least has laid the foundation of an excellent army, and the rest is nothing more than training and actual combat.

This is undoubtedly very good news for them. After all, the children of most of them are in that army and are heading here.

Regarding the handing over of the children to Zhang Nuo, it is nonsense to say that they are 100% assured.
