Chapter 285

On the sea, the Han Army fluttered, and there must be a Han flag with red letters on a black background on the mast of every ship.

How much space do three hundred ships occupy over the sea? The length of each ship will not be less than 23 meters, and the width is basically more than 6 meters. It is necessary to keep enough space between each other. In particular, in order to set up a clear formation, you can see the head but not the tail.

Maybe it's a mistake not to see the tail? The large fleet can see the outline of the ships in front, and the ships behind can only see the sails or masts. That's what the earth is determined by the ellipse. It's not that you see the mast before you see the hull when you're far away!

"Row upon row!" Yu Bing's eyes were round: "cover the sea!"

What does row upon row mean? It is often used to describe buildings, ships, etc. arranged closely and neatly. There are two allusions to this idiom, poetry, ode to Zhou and Liangyi: "the index obtained is the millet accumulated. It worships like Yong, and it is like a comb."; In the Southern Song Dynasty (not Zhao's Song Dynasty), Bao Zhao wrote a poem in Yongshi: "the twelve thoroughfares in the capital fly every scale."

Of course, Yu Bing doesn't mean "row upon row". He says more, but it's such a brief statement.

Indeed, the rows are very neat and dense. The large fleet is coming towards the estuary of the Yangtze River. Looking at the hunting of the Han flag and the arrangement of ships, you can feel a strong sense of oppression even if you are far away

"No, shouldn't!" Xie an is only twenty-three years old this year. He looks like a young and gentle young man. He dresses very carefully and meticulously. He looks like a man who pays great attention to etiquette. He can see that the fleet has also lost its attitude and said in a daze: "four years, only four years, Liu Sujun... No, how can the king of Qi develop a strong army on land and build a water army?"

No way, Liu Yan with golden fingers can be so capricious, that is, he can be so unreasonable.

King Qi? Sima Yue, the new emperor of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was much more generous than the previous one. The latest conclusion was that Liu Yan was appointed king of Qi. That was the conclusion only after the Han Army annihilated the Xuzhou army. Before, they could all agree with the previous emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty or the door lords and aristocratic families in the court.

Yu Bing's eyes were terrible. He stared at the increasingly clear-cut fleet and subconsciously said, "no matter how it developed, if it can be used by us..." he didn't say the following words. It's estimated that he felt too unbearable?

Do you know how much money the small ~ imperial ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has to throw in every year to maintain the huge Yangtze River Navy? If you change it into copper money, several mountains can definitely be filled.

Do you understand why the Eastern Jin Dynasty has been expanding to the southwest? Except that it is difficult to recover the hometown north of the Yangtze River, it is not to obtain wood for shipbuilding.

Shipbuilding can not be made of any wood. In addition, it needs enough tung oil. A large number of wood that can be used for shipbuilding in the south of the Yangtze River are consumed. The Eastern Jin Dynasty can't help bullying the aborigines in the southwest? Not yet! The Eastern Jin Dynasty also recovered a lost hometown, Jiaozhi, and established Jiaozhou there, including Wuping County, Jiaozhi County, Jiuzhen County, Jiude county and rinan county.

"Yes, if it can be used by us, it will be easy to recover the Central Plains!" Xie an just said something: "unfortunately, he has been crowned king..."

Sima 1 the state of Jin does not pay attention to whether different surnames can be granted the king, or Murong Zhuang will not be granted the king of Yan. But that's for the Hu people, and for those of Chinese and Miao descent, there is really no example of a king with a different surname.

The small ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty sealed Liu Yan as king? There's really nothing to say, either as an alien or a deadly enemy.

Yu Yi sipped his mouth. Their family are all beautiful men. One by one, they look more beautiful. Even they sipped their mouth very well. He lowered his voice and said, "when they land, will they follow the plan?"

A group of people look at me and I look at you. They are all a little stunned.

"I'm afraid... It's difficult." Yu Bing was full of Entanglement: "I thought there were many ships, but I didn't expect..."

Up to now, this group of people in the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty have not counted how many ships came from the Chu and Han Dynasties, but only saw them arranged in neat rows. How can they play tricks when the number is large?

They are standing on a hill on the shore. The higher the altitude, the clearer they can see. On the other side of the estuary of the Yangtze River is the dense Han Navy, but on the river to the west is the dense inland water army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. On the other side of Jingkou, there should be a group of frightened Shijie Zhao army.

By the way, the allusion of being frightened comes from Fu Jian's going south in the pre Qin period. There are also two idioms: all grass and trees are soldiers and throwing a whip to cut off water.

Ji Chang was also looking at the shore. He held a cylindrical thing in his hand, closed his other eyes, and raised a mocking smile at the corners of his mouth: "those guys at the top of the mountain should be the noble dignitaries of the small ~ Dynasty ~ court?"

The cylindrical thing is, of course, a monocular telescope. Now that this thing has appeared, it means that Hanbu has also got the glass out. It must be said that it's too late to get the glass out now... Too late... Too late

As far as 5000 or 6000 years ago, the Egyptians first invented fired glass, which later spread all over Europe.

At first, it may be thought that Yinchao glass was also introduced from the west, but archaeological discoveries broke this view.

In 1965, a Shang Dynasty blue glaze impression statue with five dark green thick and transparent glass glazes was unearthed in he 1 Nan.

In 1975, thousands of glass tubes and beads were unearthed in the tombs of the early and Middle Western Zhou Dynasty in Bao1 Jiru, 1 family and 1 village. According to the identification of ancient objects by Chinese and foreign scientists, they are lead barium glass, which is different from the sodium calcium glass in the West. The glass of the Chinese dynasty came from its own system.

The archaeological discovery also shows that the glass of the Chinese dynasty was later than that of Egypt. It sprouted in the Shang Dynasty and began to be fired in the Western Zhou Dynasty at the latest.

According to the biography of the son of mu, King Mu of Zhou ascended the mountain of Quarrying and ordered the people to mine stones and cast them into utensils, that is, to burn glass. However, in the early days of the Chinese dynasty, the ancients called glass as Yu Lin, Liu Li, Yu Li, Bi Liu, Yao Yu, Shui Jing, can Zi Yu, etc. after the northern and Southern Dynasties (both the Wuhu and Luanhua period), it was sometimes also called glass and material ware.

There is glass, choose from thousands of choices, and then select the lens with less bubbles for grinding. Know that the telescope is folded away, so it is not too simple to manufacture. That is, the yield will be relatively low, and then there will be trouble in the process, but who let Liu Yan get so many craftsmen. Shi Hu wants to build a ship when he catches a craftsman, but no matter how many low-level talents are, he won't only choose a craftsman who can build a ship. Anyway, as long as he is a craftsman, he will catch it. As a result, Liu Yan is cheap. After the craftsmen on Liu Yan's side spilled over, they wanted to study other things, that is, they could be willful.

The estuary of the Yangtze River was narrow and wide in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. There was an island shaped like an egg at the estuary. If Liu Yan came in person, he would find that the current south of the Yangtze River is fundamentally different from what he knows. For example, there is no upper sea at all. The upper sea is now sinking under the seabed. That island in the shape of an egg does not exist in modern times.

"Lord, where shall we sail and stop?"

"It's around the island."

Yu Bing and other people from the Eastern Jin Dynasty were waiting for the Han navy to land with various emotions, and they also ordered to make various preparations, but the Han Navy did not move far from the island on the sea?

At this time, the Han Navy had put down the boat and went to check the water depth and reefs near the island.

Since the location is the estuary of the Yangtze River, the water flow must be easy to think of and too difficult to enter. After all, that's the direction of the water flow.

It is estimated that the lowered boat also encountered this situation for the first time. As a result, it can still paddle forward without being close to the estuary of the Yangtze River. In the upstream area, it takes non boss efforts to move forward, but the more in-depth it is, the more difficult it is to move forward. Finally, the people on the boat really exhausted their strength. First, a small boat floated out of the sea with the current under the eyes of unknown people, and then it seemed to have an effect. The other small boats also rested and drifted with the waves.

"..." Ji Chang was stunned. He really didn't know this would happen.

In fact, the Han Navy did not take a boat to rush out of the Haikou of a river. It entered the Yellow River several times along the wind and with the thrust of the oars, but I really didn't know that the boat would be rolled out against the water.

Yu Bing saw "ha ha!" Laugh, and the others are laughing. In fact, they were very worried before. After watching the scene just now, they could finally laugh.

"They don't understand inland water warfare." Xie an still had something to say: "in this way, we won't be afraid of them rushing into the Yangtze River."

Isn't it? The reason why the inland water army, which is more inward at the mouth of the Yangtze River, is not that it is worried that it will be rushed into the Yangtze River by a fleet that did not know who it belongs to before.

Knowing that the fleet belonged to the Han Dynasty, the Yangtze River Navy in the Eastern Jin Dynasty not only did not relax, but became more nervous. That's because the Hu people don't understand water. No matter how large the fleet is, there is no shortage of Jin people in the Han Department, especially the Han Army captured many people in the huaishui generation of Xuzhou. They can't let them be nervous.

What happened? The Han Navy took a boat to rush out of Haikou. Is there anything more that can expose its ignorance of inland water warfare?

Ji Chang wanted to hit his head against the wall at this moment. He looked aside complaining. It was a strong man with no expression on his face. He was the captain of the warship.

Well, a strong man is actually a creature summoned by the system. Every ship has such an existence.

After the system upgrade, the system calls creatures with IQ, but I don't know what the situation is. Many things don't communicate at all, let alone remind people of something. They just follow Liu Yan's orders and do their own work.

Ji Chang doesn't understand or understand, but he knows it's a big shame this time!
