Su yonglin looked at the staff officers
This time, the staff officers are not as high-spirited as before.
Because it is a fact that the field combat ability of the Southern Song Dynasty’s "Ma bu" or horse stance just look army is useless, it is also a fact that the Southern Song Dynasty’s water army has strong hand-to-hand combat ability on the surface.
You can imagine how strong the tactical level of the Southern Song Navy was.
According to the research of the Water Warfare Division of the Staff Department, compared with the former Southern Song Dynasty, the water warfare technology has made great progress.
The first progress is that warships make more wind, and when the ship is wide and the bottom is pointed downwind, the speed of the ship is fast and the cargo volume is large, which is suitable for transporting troops, and some tactics such as landing on the beach can be realized.
The second progress is that although the prototype of the vehicle and boat appeared in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was completely mature and could be put into actual combat, and it still appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, the Navy was equipped with 20 ships of different sizes, and these ships were also covered with wooden castles and watchtowers to install trebuchets and rackets.
This giant ship equipped with a racket and a trebuchet is suitable for long-range attack, close-range defense, long-range attack, trebuchet hitting enemy ships, close-range attack, sinking or burning opponents.
Of course, the sea is rough, so the ship is not big, but in rivers and lakes, such a ship is obviously more suitable for war than a seagoing ship
The third progress is the transport of gunpowder weapons, such as the mixing of gunpowder, arsenic and lime powder thunderbolt in porcelain jars, which is the magic weapon to deal with the Jin Army in the Southern Song Dynasty, as well as gunpowder arrows and water warfare devices. It can be said that these firearms are also the masters of the Southern Song Navy.
The Southern Song Navy was very strong, including the jumping gang warfare and the water warfare technology. When dealing with the nomads from the past, the army did not dare to hand-to-hand combat with the nomads, but the water army was quite brave, and the boats and nomads hand-to-hand combat defeated the nomads repeatedly.
But that doesn’t mean the navy can’t win.
The progress of the navy in the Southern Song Dynasty was inherited by the navy headquarters, including sailing ships, river combat ships and water warfare devices.
Especially in firearms, Su Yonglin enhanced the efficiency of gunpowder explosion, and the gun technology was pointed out. Before the crossbow was launched, the rocket had become the main battle firearm, one of the most powerful gunpowder weapons in the world.
When Su Yonglin made a surprise attack on the Jin Army Navy, he knocked the Jin Army Navy out with a big rocket, and then successfully wiped out the Jin Army Navy and won.
Eye-big rocket is the unique technology of the main battle firearm powder granulation, and it is also the unique technology of war. With the more scientific proportion of powder, the power of military powder is rising, which is more powerful than when Su Yonglin made granular powder.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, gunpowder remained in powder and paste form.
Although the artillery skills haven’t been pointed out yet, the military gunpowder technicians have gone further and further along the way of explosion. Su Yonglin can be sure that Song Jun’s gunpowder is far less powerful than the military gunpowder.
This is an important support for Su Yonglin to believe that the army can win the battle.
Others don’t have me. That’s the advantage.
In addition, it is quantity.
Su Yonglin owned more than 300 ships before the founding of the People’s Republic of China. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the navy expanded to more than 500 ships, and now it is still increasing, including the total number of logistics supply ships exceeding 1,000.
The water army is full of 30 thousand, but it is not yet full, but now the navy has more than 13 thousand qualified sailors, so it can be said that a powerful navy has taken shape
There are many reasons why Yan Yanliang’s navy lost miserably. Don’t say that Yan Yanliang didn’t build a navy ship until the year before the Song Dynasty, or that sailors were all new combat experiences. What’s more, there is no hope of luck and quantitative violence.
The navy has different combat experience, although it is not rich, but it is also available, and the sailors are all professional.
Although there is no battle in the eyes of the navy, it often travels to and from the sea to carry out various battles. When encountering pirates, it will also send out hunting battles. Even if it is not so rich, it is by no means a recruit’s egg.
With such a navy, Su Yonglin will never admit that he will lose to the navy of the Southern Song Dynasty.
At present, the only thing Su Yonglin doesn’t know is the current number of naval divisions and the number of sailors in the Southern Song Dynasty. How many ships can the Southern Song Navy quickly dispatch to fight in an emergency?
After more than ten years of peace, did the Southern Song Navy remain once strong, and did it become as useless as the "Ma bu" or horse stance just look because of long-term peace?
But in any case, Su Yonglin is not a brain game player, and he can’t make a trick. It’s just to get rid of the fog and know everyone, right?
"Although I don’t know whether the water war can occupy the wind, there is no doubt that if our navy can win and defeat the Southern Song Navy in the water war, we can directly threaten Lin’ an City by landing in Suzhou Ocean and directly attack the core of the Southern Song Dynasty. This deterrent is very great."
Su Yonglin pointed to the map of Hangzhou Bay.
"If you can do this, you can directly win the game. Zhao Guanjia’s virtue is estimated to escape again?"
Xin Qiji remembered some interesting things he knew in those days and laughed. "At the beginning, 8 Jin Army attacked the south of the Yangtze River, claiming to search the mountains and inspect the sea to catch the Zhao regime in Zhao Gou, and was so scared that he fled directly to Haigen by boat that he dared not stand on land. It was cowardice to the extreme."
Han Tai also laughed. "If my navy can win the Zhao regime and flee again, it will be beautiful."
"I really want to see this scene, too."
Su Yonglin nodded and said, "But if you want to see that the escape of Zhao butler lies in the fact that the" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or" ma bu "or"
Su Yonglin set the key point of this war-the destruction of the Southern Song Navy.
Chapter 666 Casting guns
The Staff Committee of the Staff College agreed with Su Yonglin’s key points.
Moreover, they further believe that more sufficient materials should be prepared for the navy immediately to pull the navy out for emergency adjustment and preparation before the war.
Su Yonglin’s department adopted and then made the Jiaolong Army and the Privy Council Jiaolong Army jointly conduct war drills, and at the same time made the Privy Council Jiaolong Army prepare sufficient logistical support.
In particular, the main battle firearm bed crossbow launching rocket, a powerful firearm beyond Song Jun’s expectation, should be an important support for the navy to occupy the war wind.
Su Yonglin began to arrange the army action again after the navy problem was arranged.
Geographically speaking, the most suitable for carrying out this task is of course Zhang Yuejing’s Henan Corps.
After their victory in the war, they returned to Henan to continue their garrison, while they were handed over to Su Haisheng Qilu Corps for garrison.
Seeing that they directly dispatched an army to participate in this war on the border of Jinghu Theater and Huainan Theater in the Southern Song Dynasty, it is natural that there is no problem and they will be very happy to mobilize them nearby.
An army of 30 thousand people may be insufficient to carry out this task, and more troops are needed
Su Yonglin decided to dispatch 20,000 elite fighters from China to south to cooperate with an army of Henan Corps to fight.
After capturing the Central Plains, Yanyun and Grassland Racecourse, the army completely broke away from the huge disadvantage of cavalry in the Southern Song Dynasty and established a very strong cavalry unit.
Through the catalysis of war, the number of cavalry in the current army has exceeded 50 thousand, and the base is full of motivation and has a considerable tactical level
The number of horses in Yanshan Racecourse and Liaodong Racecourse under construction has exceeded 100,000. Su Yonglin plans to expand the number to one million in five years and build a standing elite fighters with 100,000 people to ride freely in the northern part of the empire.
In addition to the elite fighters with 100,000 troops, Su Yonglin also intends to greatly broaden the professional skills of military soldiers.
He intends to strive for the army to be able to ride horses for everyone. In the end, he will directly use excellent war horses as weapons of war, while ordinary horses, mules and donkeys will be used as means of transportation to build an army, which will make it more mobile.
Professional cavalry naturally needs professional training, but it is not too difficult for ordinary soldiers to just ride on horseback.
He planned that the Chinese army would become a highly specialized and motorized powerful army, and it was far from tactical level to have an army in this era.
Of course, this is another story.
But as far as the eye is concerned, the army still has Song Jun’s cavalry power.
If the navy can compete with the army in the Southern Song Dynasty, Su Yonglin will have the confidence to directly penetrate the Southern Song Dynasty.
These 50,000 people plus 13,000 naval divisions and 63,000 elite troops are generally enough for military strategic purposes.
Later, Su Yonglin and the Staff College discussed which troops should be recruited to fight.
After some discussion, the military leaders unanimously decided to call up You Yijun, the most experienced soldier in Henan Corps. In this battle, the commander-in-chief of Zhou ordered him to command 50 thousand troops to attack the Jianghuai theater in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The order will be confirmed quickly and sent to all departments for preparation as soon as possible.
Among the imperial troops in China, the cavalry, the Henan Corps, the Youyi Army and the Navy and the Jiaolong Army need to work together to complete this military task.
After all the arrangements were made, Su Yonglin took another trip to the Firearms Division of the Ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of Industry to inspect the current research and development workers of gunpowder weapons in the DPRK.
Earlier, he handed over the design of tubular firearms to firearms craftsmen, hoping that they could build successful artillery as soon as possible, even if they could play solid ammunition artillery, which was a very revolutionary change for the current war mode.
Not to mention the fact that the army equipped the navy with bombardable artillery can make the water war bid farewell to the era of jumping for help.
Su Yonglin was busy with the war and was not very concerned about the research and development of firearms. Apart from money and materials, he did not ask about the research and development of firearms.
After he occupied the stable situation in Zhongduji, he separated some energy from the development of firearms, and at that time he learned that craftsmen had experienced four failures.
