Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

"It's unlucky for us." Chen Xi said with a troubled expression.

That's all I can say, the situation is too bad, at least Chen Xi can't figure out why Guishuang tried to absorb the advantages of the Han army's warships when the Han army was not so strong, but the fact has already happened, Really can only admit to being unlucky.

Originally, Chen Xi thought that Guishuang had won the Han army's navy, so he would probably underestimate the Han army's navy, and because the country's navy has always been very strong, he would probably ignore his own shortcomings until the Han army gave the opponent a blow Only after a serious injury can he react.

However, according to Chen Xi's habit, if you beat a snake to death, you will suffer from it. Now that you have done it, you will definitely not let the other party stand up. It is Chen Xi's routine to beat the other party to death in one breath. Unexpectedly, Guishuang is so fine that Chen Xi can't help it. react to.

Now that such a strange news came out, if it wasn't for Zhou Yu's moral integrity to come and tell Chen Xi in person, maybe Chen Xi would need to send someone to confirm it before he dared to use it for future reference.

To be honest, there is nothing to be afraid of a self-proclaimed No. 1 in the world. The scary thing is that a guy who works harder than you, has better qualifications than you, and has a stronger foundation than you stands in the No. 1 position, secretly rubbing his hands. stealthily learn the strengths of opponents who are weaker than themselves.

Guishuang's style of absorbing the advantages of opponents who are weaker than his own makes Chen Xi's liver ache. He is most afraid of this kind of enemy. It is obvious that with the impeller, the opponent is relying on Guishuang's naval techniques and tactics. The Han army is still fast. In this case, how powerful the naval guns can be is really two things.

It might not even be possible. The naval gun has just been used and hit the opponent a wave. After the opponent confirms the power, it shrinks directly. When we meet again next time, there will be a naval gun on Guishuang's battleship. This shameless and powerful approach , Chen Xi felt a headache.

"What can you do?" Chen Xi looked at Zhou Yu and asked, "We can't use the naval guns. If we don't use them, we can't test what kind of effect this thing has on the opponent's so-called combined defense layer." The effect, if you don’t use it, I also know from your situation, you can’t beat the opponent.”

"Use it, it must be used. The second generation is released, and then we use the first generation to test. What's more, the conventional seventh-generation ship is meaningless before, but when the seventh-generation ship comes out with an all-steel structure, Guishuang wants to imitate it. Let’s see if he has the ability.” Zhou Yu said with a sneer, whether he has a good idea or not is better than nothing.

The problem Zhou Yu mentioned actually only existed before the seventh generation of ships. The concept of all-steel manufacturing itself is a wonderful type, and the steel materials required, to be honest, Chen Xi needs several years, then Guishuang's efforts to pour the whole country are over.

"Well, to put it bluntly, it's burning money. I'm good at that." Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Chen Xi murmured twice. Pompianus, tied together, would not be his opponent.

In this regard, Chen Xi is very confident. The problem that can be solved by burning money is not a problem at all for the unified Han Empire. In his hands, the annual financial revenue of the Han Empire will reach 100 billion yuan sooner or later. There is nothing to be afraid of burning the real assets held by those countries.

Burning money can solve the problem. Chen Xi firmly believes that the other three empires combined will not be able to burn as hard as him. Of course, it is mainly because of some things. After all, the method of burning out the future is still limited by talents.

In terms of basic craftsmanship, there is actually no obvious difference between the four empires. After all, it was not when the industrial system of later generations had developed. The so-called technical barriers between the current four empires did not exist at all, except for some of them. Except for the existing things that cannot be studied, other things, as long as they are obtained, have a direction, and have an idea, only material resources are consumed.

"There is indeed a gap between us and the opponent in terms of naval battle techniques and tactics. There is absolutely no hope of chasing us in this area, so taking the route of giant ships and cannons can at least bring them to the same level as ours, and then drag them to the seventh generation It's enough to make a final decision." Zhou Yu seemed not to have heard Chen Xi's words, and maintained his proper speaking speed, speaking with a touch of confidence.

"Well, if this is the case, our advantage is not great, because once the war starts, they will definitely follow this route to find more suitable and even more powerful naval guns after imitating them. Even if we have the upper hand, and we I am willing to burn money, but the limitation is actually the research speed of my country." Chen Xi frowned and said, doing so would cause a bit of a loss.

"Heh, at least we didn't suffer a loss. If we follow their path, even I have no hope of winning. If we formulate the rules of the game according to our method, although it is limited by the situation, it is impossible to have an instant advantage, at least it can be regarded as one step ahead, step by step. First." Zhou Yu said with a touch of confidence, "The rules of naval warfare must be in our hands, only in this way can we win."

Chasing and defeating an empire with a complete naval warfare system, even a talented person like Zhou Yu does not have such confidence. After all, it is an empire, and there are not many people out of tens of millions who can do it ? It can only be said whether the country is willing to use it.

Witnessing the eruption of the Thousand Sails Navy in Malacca, and hearing about the massacre in the Indochina Peninsula where thousands of people practiced their qi, Zhou Yu had a clear understanding of the empire. opponent.

If you want to defeat the opponent in the aspect that this opponent is best at, without thinking of other ways, just bury your head and fight hard, even Zhou Yu can't stand it.

However, switching to a place where neither side has an advantage and opened up a battlefield again, Zhou Yu pondered over and over again, and felt that he still had a chance of winning, no matter how bad he was, he would not lose worse than the previous situation. After all, he also had an empire behind him.

After sending away Zhou Yu, who was mentally prepared and planning the layout, Chen Xi thought about organizing a team to attack, upgrade the naval guns to a new version, and then use this generation of naval guns to start the battle, and then use the new version for a decisive battle.

[Does Guishuang still have such an eclectic attitude? Ordinarily, if there is such an attitude, even if Weisudeva I falls, this empire will not be defeated by Ardashir. 】 Chen Xi frowned and thought, this attitude is not normal at all.

It’s not that it shouldn’t be like this. In fact, humbly accepting the essence of another civilization and discarding the dross is an ability that any civilization has during its rising period. The problem is that the Guishuang Empire is actually going downhill now.

Once Vesudeva I died, the country would fall apart in an instant, and then the Zoroastrian sect plus some northern scum led Ardashir to invade, causing the country to collapse to a tiny place the moment King II took over. degree.

As a result, the situation that Zhou Yu has investigated now seems to blind Chen Xi, that is, the so-called Guishuang Empire is still on the rise.

"It's strange." Chen Xi scratched his head, but he couldn't figure it out, so he could only let it go and investigate later.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the content of Chen Xi's estimation. The Guishuang Empire is indeed not in the rising period of civilization, but this does not mean that Guishuang cannot absorb nutrition from the Han Empire. In the history of the Guishuang Empire, there are Then a country is very special.

Well, there is no doubt that this country is the Han Empire. The Han Empire has an indelible impression on the royal family of the Guishuang Empire. If the commander of the Qianfan Navy is the Sisi family, it may be because of the arrogance in the heart that Chen Xi said Case.

However, the commander of this wave of Qianfan Navy is Qiu Lique, a child of the Guishuang royal family, one of the five royal families of the Yue family, a descendant of the royal family who is superior and outstanding, and he is very impressed with what happened to his ancestors, and he will also be very impressed. The Han navy, which he defeated, was of great interest.

Switching to other nobles to command, after defeating the Han Dynasty, at most entangled for a while, thinking about what they have provoked a strong enemy, of course there will be some dudes who don't know what the Han Empire means to the Guishuang Empire, Both of these will hardly care about the opponent's ships, wrecks, etc. after the fight.

After all, for these two kinds of people, it is as simple as the loser has nothing, and there is no need to say anything else. This sentence ends everything, and naturally the relics of the Han Dynasty do not need to be salvaged.

However, it is different if it is Qiu Li. As a descendant of the royal family, after defeating the Han Dynasty, besides panic, it is more of a kind of excitement. It goes without saying how excited I am after being overwhelmed.

After the excitement, Qiu Li really naturally wanted to salvage the sunken ship of the Han Dynasty and study it, not for anything else, just to feel the difference between the two sides and why Guishuang won.

Then Qiu Li gave an order to salvage the sunken ships of the Han Dynasty in the shallow sea area of ​​Malacca one by one, including the sixth-generation ship that Gan Ning sank. Shipbuilding technology is a bit interesting.

He looked at the Han Dynasty from the perspective of the strong, so naturally he would not have any pride. If he looked at the problem squarely, he would naturally find the problem.

Although the warships of the Han Dynasty and Guishuang's warships have moved in two directions of development, such as keels, impellers, and airtight cabins that transcend the times, but are not technically difficult, they were sent by Qiu Lique in an instant. The craftsman will report.

After realizing these technologies that truly surpassed his own warships, not only did Qiu Li not feel ashamed of his own shipbuilding technology, but he felt that it was natural for the Han Dynasty to have this technology, and then naturally sent people to study it carefully, spending more than a year Thoroughly understand the sixth-generation ships, and then strengthen them on their own warships.
