Chapter 1483： Anti-meter

Once the Peixan artillery is made, let alone invincible, land siege will also be very useful. Most of the European city walls are difficult to resist the continuous pounding of the 68-pound iron ball. Unless it is a particularly thickened wall, it can barely resist it.

Despite the huge caliber, the Peksan gun is not very heavy due to the shortened barrel design. According to Marin's memory, the length of the Peixan gun seems to be only 2.84 meters, which is less than the 3 meters of the 18-pound Hongyi cannon. Therefore, although the pounds are 3.77 times that of the Hongyi Cannon, the total weight of the Peixan cannon is 3.4 tons. This weight is much lighter than those heavy artillery in World War I. If you use more horses, you can still pull them under the enemy walls.

As it happens, Marin's ranch is now fully cultivating tall and strong Sharma. This heavy horse is naturally suitable for pulling heavy artillery. At that time, the responsibility of La Peixan to reach the enemy's wall was given to Sharma.

However, this super heavy gun with a caliber of up to 220 mm seems to have a very large recoil. Even the largest 500-ton warship in Beihai is currently difficult to withstand its huge recoil.

You should know that in the mid-19th century when the Peixan artillery appeared, the main wooden battleship at that time had reached 3,000 to 4,000 tons. For example, the "Victory", a battleship of the late 18th century, has a displacement of more than 3,500 tons.

Moreover, in order to adapt to the powerful recoil of large-caliber artillery, the battleships of that time were reinforced on the hull. Especially the keel part, lest the warship itself be dislodged by recoil during the artillery battle.

Therefore, even if there is a Pexan cannon, Marin must be equipped with a solid battleship to match it. Therefore, Marin had to order-to mobilize the best group of designers in Beihai's shipbuilding industry to design the strongest warship. Moreover, the displacement is required to reach more than 1,000 tons. Otherwise, it is difficult to adapt to the recoil of a heavy gun such as the Peixan. If the ship is too small, even if the structure is strengthened, the huge recoil of the Peksang can cause the hull to roll over ...

In short, neither the development of the Peixan artillery nor the development of a 1,000-ton battleship can be obtained in a short period of time. It may take ten or eight years.

But Marin can afford it and is willing to wait. Because, with this ultimate weapon and battleship, the sea will be named Ma. With a few more such warships coming out, Marin can only learn how Deng Chao danced at home and sang "How lonely is the invincible" ...

At that time, Marin decided to send such an invincible fleet to encircle the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, and slam the Portuguese warships in Lisbon. Then, force Portugal to sign an unequal treaty. For example, ceded South Africa to him or something ...

Marin did not have much interest in Africa, but the tens of thousands of tons of gold in South Africa was something he could not ignore. Therefore, once the big bomb is forced out, go to the port of Lisbon in Portugal to wash the ground, which Marin must do. Moreover, Marin also intends to frighten Spain by beating Portugal in order to achieve the purpose of maintaining maritime hegemony.

But now, Marin can only think about it ... The dozen or so 500-ton warships in the North Sea State are very powerful, but the scale is too small after all. Even if the Portuguese fleet is of inferior quality, it can rely on quantitative advantage to win. Therefore, Marin can only silently pretend to be transparent, so as not to be taught to be a man ...

...

For research and development and confidentiality, Marin ordered that the R & D team to develop the Peixan artillery and 1,000-ton warships be relocated to New York Harbor in the Americas. As a result, it will be difficult for other European countries to know any news.

Moreover, it is also very convenient to develop warships in the Americas. Because, in the New York colony, there are too many red oaks suitable for shipbuilding, and they have been air-dried for more than two years. The R & D team used to command the shipbuilders over there to make big ships. It doesn't matter if the wood is wasted, because there are dozens of meters of red oak logs everywhere. The local red oak logs suitable for large ships are thrown everywhere. Even if it's used as a firewood, I don't worry about waste. Because, the ground is full of such towering trees ...

...

When Marin was thinking about how to dance and sing "How lonely is the invincible" in the future, intelligence came from Italy-John Rafi asked Marlin for help. ...

Speaking of which, Marin's previous plan is now a failure. For example, Marin originally planned to let the Spanish army and the French army fight on the Italian peninsula. It is best to fight both sides and get a dog brain.

But the problem is that Gonzalo de Cordoba, a Spanish star, is too careful and too cumbersome. People refused to attack the city at all. They only knew how to dig trenches and besieged the city. They were very patient.

The French originally expected the Spanish to attack the city of Naples, even for this reason, they did not hesitate to send people to the Spanish mainland to use aggressive methods. However, Gonzalo de Córdoba found a way to use French farmers as cannon fodder to make an offensive look, cracking the French's strategy.

Now, looking at the French soldiers who are hurting French farmers every day, Louis XII is so depressed that he wants to vomit blood. He just couldn't help it. The previous "return carbine" tactics were very easy to use, eliminating tens of thousands of Spanish troops in one go. However, it can only be used once. From the second time onwards, the Spaniards took out a chariot to guard against cavalry charges ...

Therefore, the French now have a dilemma, I do not know how to be better. Because of his previous outstanding performance, Louis XII now trusts John Rafi very much and asks him every day. But John Rafi knows bitterly—what kind of resourceful man is he? The strategies he offered were all taught by Marin ...

In desperation, he could only release the pigeons in the middle of the night and ask Marlin for advice ...

"It really can't be like this. It's always such a stalemate that it doesn't meet my own expectations at all!" Marin also has some headaches now.

...

Malin thought about it and found out that the biggest cause of the current stalemate is Gonzalo de Cordoba, a famous Spanish player.

This product has become mature and does not care about honor and face. As long as he is in one day, it is difficult for the Spanish army to go to the city stupidly.

Therefore, if you want France and Spain to get their brains out, you must dismiss this old product ...

And how to transfer such a famous general? Marin immediately thought of the famous "Changping War" ...

At that time, Zhao Guoming's general Lian Po was just like Gonzalo de Cordova. He was not fooled, insisted on confrontation, and should never fight.

Later, Qin Guo adopted anti-countermeasures and spread rumors that Lian was not good. Zhao Kuo, who was only able to speak, was very powerful. The Qin people were afraid of Zhao Kuo ... Then, King Sabie was fooled, and Lian Po was replaced. Wang Zhaokuo defeated Zhao Guo and lost 400,000 Zhuang Ding. From then on, he was seriously injured and could no longer stand alone against Qin Guo ...

Marin decided to draw a scoop according to the gourd and come up with an anti-countermeasure, so that the Spanish domestic side was dissatisfied with Gonzalo de Cordoba and transferred it away. Then, the two sides have the possibility of a decisive battle ...

Marin thought for a night, wrote many measures, and responded to John Rafi with a pigeon. He wrote it in Morse code, not because the spy couldn't understand it, but he wasn't afraid of the pigeon being intercepted. These countermeasures were quickly sent to John Laffey and then dedicated to Louis XII. Then, the French mainland also moved, and a large number of instructions were sent to Spain. Because, as a neighbor and opponent, France has a lot of spies in Spain, which is very suitable for this matter ...
