Chapter 377： Isabella 1 crashes

Regardless of the Venetian's fate, Marin's mission was finally completed very beautifully. Of course, out of good intentions, Marin reminded the Venetians that paddle sailing ships have a disadvantage over sail ships in naval battles. Because there are not many artillery guns ...

Therefore, Marin suggested that Venice should increase the gun positions as much as possible without affecting the sailing performance of the paddle sailboat to improve the combat effectiveness. In this regard, the Governor of Venice, Leonardo Lore, adopted Marin ’s suggestion and ordered an attempt to study the manufacture of a paddle sailboat that could deploy more artillery.

In fact, the Emden Shipyard in Marin has long studied the tactics of adding artillery to paddle sailing ships. Moreover, a final conclusion was drawn-if you want artillery and oars not to affect each other, the best layout is to build a double-deck paddle sailboat. The oarsman paddled through the windows on the lower deck, and the artillery was deployed on the upper deck ...

In this way, the oars of the rower moving back and forth will not affect the artillery above. In this way, a paddle sailboat can deploy twenty or thirty artillery pieces. Of course, it must be a double-deck big paddle sailboat.

In addition, in order to reduce the rear seat torque and avoid the hull from shaking too much, the artillery equipped on the top layer is preferably a small and medium-sized artillery. It is necessary to avoid heavy artillery.

Because, when the heavy artillery is fired, the recoil is very strong. Generally speaking, in order to stabilize the navigation, the center of gravity of the ship is generally low to avoid sailing. The recoil arm of the upper deck artillery is much longer than the lower deck. Then, when the artillery on the top deck fires, the moment produced by the recoil force is much larger than the equivalent power artillery on the lower deck.

If too many heavy guns are installed on the top deck, the recoil torque generated during the salvo is sufficient to tip the ship. Therefore, in the battleships of the 19th century, many heavy artillery was arranged on the lower deck. For example, when the American Matthew Perry led the fleet to deter Edo, Japan, the 68-pound Peksan gun equipped on board was placed on the lower deck. Of course, this also has a reason to protect the flowering bullet from being detonated by Mars from enemy shells. After all, stacking flower bombs on the top deck can easily detonate the entire ship by enemy fire. But it is undeniable that when the heavy artillery is placed on the lower deck, the rear seat torque is much smaller.

If only artillery is placed on the top deck, too many heavy artillery cannot be placed. Otherwise, it will really overturn during the salvo. However, in this era, the specifications of the artillery used by everyone generally did not exceed 20 pounds. Therefore, this problem cannot be regarded as a problem. The Venetians casually placed dozens of pounds of artillery on the top deck, which was enough to fight the Spanish and Portuguese.

Marin, too detailed, did not say that, because this involves some military secrets. For example, in order to be more resistant to shelling, Marin ordered the ribs of the warship to be very dense and thickened the side planks, and intended to be covered with iron.

In this way, a dozen pounds of artillery can't threaten the warship under Marin's command, even a dozen pounds. Only larger caliber artillery can threaten the ship's dense ribs, and thicken the sideboards and the iron-clad warships.

Such a secret, Marin obviously will not tell the Venetian. After all, the world has not yet entered the era of naval warfare, and everyone does not pay much attention to the thickening of the side.

Therefore, Marin did not disclose the core secrets of his own battleship to Venice, but only told Venice a very simple way to increase the artillery-make the ship bigger, get two decks, and open the window on the lower deck for the oarsman In the upper deck without the interference of the oars, some more artillery is arranged for naval warfare ...

In fact, after the Venetian got this inspiration, the strength of the naval battle has been greatly enhanced. At least, it is not a problem to hang Spain on the Mediterranean.

Anyway, some Spain will be unlucky in the future. If the Venetians began to threaten Spain ’s waterways on the Mediterranean Sea, Spain was absolutely forced to scratch their heads ...

The crux of the matter is that if Spain wants to rule the Kingdom of Naples and Sicily, it must communicate through ships and the two places. If the transport line is cut by the Venetians, Spanish rule over the two places will also be a big problem ...

Marin gave the Venetian the idea to cater to the father-in-law Julius II's desire to unify Italy. At least, the probability of the Papal Kingdom acquiring the Kingdom of Naples is greatly increased ...

Sure enough, after returning to Rome, Julius II greatly praised Marin's credit. Of course, between Weng and son-in-law, there is no mention of rewards. After all, Julius II is not as rich as Marin ...

And Marin secretly gave Venice an idea, so that they may crack down on Spanish hegemony in the Mediterranean, and also received high praise from Julius II. From Julius II's point of view, Spain's occupation of the Kingdom of Naples is unreasonable, and it is reasonable to hand over the Kingdom of Naples to the Holy See ...

...

What Julius II and Marin didn't know about Wing-son is that at this time in Spain, a big thing happened-Isabella I crashed ...

As for the reason, it is necessary to ask Marin ...

At the beginning, in order to destroy the marriage alliance between Spain and Britain, Marin deliberately disclosed the news to the French under the guidance of Julius II. As a result, the French really paid attention.

Moreover, the French took Marlin's deliberate disclosure of "Ferdinand II to find women everywhere in Italy" as a top priority.

The French have their own influence in Spain. Even many Spanish aristocrats secretly fell to France and secretly communicated with France to help the French quietly. Among them, the nobles in the border area of ​​northern Spain and France are the most. After all, they do not know on which day their territory will be annexed by France.

Louis XII actually knew that Isabella I was sick ~ www.novelhall.com ~ After all, French spies in Spain were not vegetarian. After hearing about the romantic affair of Ferdinand II in Italy, the treacherous Louis XII recruited the French court painters, and took out the portraits of Ferdinand II painted by the spies as a reference, so that the court painters I drew a dozen doodle images of Ferdinand II and several fruit female groups p ...

Then, Louis XII sent a spy to send these dozen pictures to Spain, so that the French secret son in Spain, through secret channels, was sent to the Spanish royal palace ...

Originally, Isabella I was not in good health. But as long as the mood is soothing, it will be able to recover when the spring blooms. However, these dozens of limited oil paintings about Isabella I's husband Ferdinand II in Italian music, instantly made Isabella I feel bad.

At the same time, news from all over Spain, driven by the French, that Ferdinand II was dating a lover in Italy and Princess Catherine was imprisoned by Henry VII in the Tower of London quickly spread throughout Spain ...

Originally seeing the dozen or so restricted oil paintings, Isabella I was in a bad mood. When I heard that my little daughter, Princess Catherine, was imprisoned and tortured by King Henry VII, Isabella I was in a terrible mood, or extremely angry ...

At this time, her body was weak. With such a great stimulus, he was so angry that Isabella I fell ill again ...

This time, **** brown sugar water failed to save the queen. The 53-year-old Isabella I finally failed to survive, and passed away ... And when the Queen died, Ferdinand II was driving with the young and beautiful Italian girls in the Royal Palace of Naples City. What about "Uncovered Conference" ...
