Chapter 953 Military Exercise 2
On the vast sea, the warships advanced towards the predetermined goal. For William, the entire warship brought him too much surprise. On the warship, the division of labor was very obvious. There were about a dozen people in the entire Cambridge, but each of them performed their own duties and did not waste any time.
William also showed a strong interest in the compass of the Ming warship. After careful look, he found that the compass of the Ming Navy's Navy was different from those used by him and others, which should be said to be more complicated. Moreover, this compass was used only by this naval chart. After the development of the naval commander of the Ming Dynasty, the naval charts and other methods have been very perfect. Although Jianglang did not know much about these navigation, it was not important. As long as they were given a direction, they naturally knew how to do it, and this was enough!
There are not many real navy soldiers on each warship. After all, the warships are not very large now, so there is a lot of space on the ship to transport personnel. Therefore, the rear part of the warship is mainly the soldiers' residence. Generally speaking, a warship can transport more than 100 to 200 people. After William looked at the entire warship left and right, the entire warship was full of novelty for him, so they looked at it inside and out, and it took a lot of time. After reading the upper floor of this building, they walked to the stairs. The difference here is that there are two fully armed soldiers holding hands here!
William didn't know, so he walked forward, but after he got there, the two soldiers at the door stretched out their hands and said, "I'm sorry, it's not allowed to enter here!"
You should know that under the staircase, is the place where the Ming warships shelved their artillery. Most people cannot enter at all. Even the soldiers on the warships do not belong to the two floors below cannot enter without permission.
William couldn't help but wonder, turned his head to look at the translator next to him, and the translator immediately said the soldier's words.
William immediately said, "We are your friends and are here to observe. He allows us to visit at will!"
The translator translated William's words again!
After the two soldiers looked at each other, they said: Sorry, this is a secret of this ship. Without the adult's handwriting, no one is allowed to enter! "
The translator had to translate his words again!
William was speechless and looked up. A trace of light came from below, and a faint voice came from him. Moreover, the soldier said that the secret of this ship was the secret of the ship, which means that the battle layer of the warship should be below. If you want to know the power of the Ming warship! Then look at the artillery of this warship, you will know!
William was suddenly disappointed, but still a little unwilling to accept it, and said, "But you said I can do it. Can you let me in?"
The translator had no choice but to translate his words again, but the two soldiers had no intention of letting him in at all, and said, "I'm sorry, I can't enter here!"
The translator had no choice at this time. He pondered for a moment, and honestly helped him translate, and then persuaded: "Mr. William, this should be a military secret of our Ming Dynasty. Most people do not allow it to read it, so please go back!"
It turned out to be a high military secret. Why didn’t William want to know? Even if he couldn’t see the inner vision, he could look outside. But now others don’t give him this opportunity at all. He turned around now. If he couldn’t do it, he would really go to Jiang Lang to ask clearly!
Because of the cold weather, Jiang Lang and Xue Pan are both in the ship now. Seeing William in, Jiang Lang smiled and asked, "Sir William, how do you think?"
William shrugged and said, "Mr. Wang, no one is allowed to enter there. What are the secrets of the height of the ship? I need a handwritten order!"|
"Shizi?"
Jiang Lang smiled faintly and then said, "Then I have nothing to do!"
William couldn't help but say in surprise: "Mr. Wang, you have no choice, either?"
Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "I really have no choice. You must know that there are not many people who can enter. Moreover, if outsiders can enter, they can only report to the Ministry of War. Then the Ministry of War agrees, so that they can enter. Apart from that, only the emperor's consent is approved. Otherwise, there is no other way, and I can't do it."
William was shocked when he heard this. Of course, he understood the meaning of Jiang Lang's words. He was an outsider. The so-called outsider William was naturally very clear. He was either someone else or himself. In their eyes, he was still an outsider now. Because he was an outsider, he could not let you in. If he went in, he had to ask the Ministry of War. If the Ministry of War did not agree, he had to ask the Emperor. He was just a small envoy. He could see the emperor there, and the palace was not a place where he could go in.
I couldn't help feeling a little discouraged, but I was a little unwilling to accept it and said, "Mr. Wang, can't you have any privileges or something?"
Generally speaking, it should be normal for people with Jiang Lang to nod their privileges. After all, he is one of the most valued people by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
Jiang Lang shook his head again. William's persistence was very clear in his heart, but this was absolutely impossible. He said, "I'm sorry, Mr. William, I don't have any privileges. As a destiny official of the court, the higher the status, the more we have to abide by the court's system. The so-called "upper is not good and the subordinates are ineffective. If I don't take the lead in obeying, I can still expect others to abide by it, and another point...!"
Jiang Lang raised his tone and said, "It has been explained that the secrets of our warships are under the warships, so please abide by our rules and regulations. If you keep thinking about it, then we will regard it as your inquiry into our secrets and the enemy of our country!"
Jiang Lang said it very seriously, but this is definitely not a trivial matter. This can be regarded as a negotiation!
William couldn't help but be stunned. Jiang Lang had never been so serious. However, after careful consideration, if he was too persistent, and this belonged to someone else's secret. If he really asked whether he was a spy, he would become someone else's enemy.
However, he was still a little unwilling to admit his mistake and said, "But...!"
"Sir William, don't do it!"
Jiang Lang said again, "I hope you abide by our system. I invite you to participate in our practical exercises this time, and I treat you as a guest!"
William was very clear about what a guest should pay attention to. Of course, he also understood what Jiang Lang meant. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to rest!"
After saying that, he walked out with a little dejected look!
After he left, Xue Pan came over and asked in a low voice: "Sir, is it a bit inappropriate to scold him like this? After all, others are also this envoy?"
Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "There is nothing wrong with this, and, no matter what, he is an outsider. Since he is an outsider, we have to be careful of him, so it doesn't matter above, but below is 1 that he is absolutely not allowed to see."
Xue Pan nodded. Jiang Lang's words did make sense. After all, this warship is the latest warship of the Ming Dynasty, and the artillery is also the latest artillery. It was stolen. Wouldn't that make an enemy for the Ming Dynasty? So I gave up!
During this period, William was not idle either. Although Jiang Lang had made it very clear that he was not allowed to enter the lower part, he did not allow him to look around, so he was not idle either. He carefully saw the entire warship from the beginning and the tail. Of course, this could not be drawn, and he could not draw it in front of others. So now he had to see the warship carefully again. As for drawing, let's go back and talk about it. Now he just needs to remember all this!
Jiang Lang didn't care about his behavior. Of course, the main things of a warship are not on the surface, but on the bottom of the deck, the arrangement of artillery, equipment, keel laying, etc. These are the main things of the warship. Moreover, with warships, no well-trained soldiers to operate this warship is just a decoration. Therefore, it is still a long time for them to learn. The most important point is that in terms of knowledge, they have an insurmountable gap with themselves. They are from modern times, and they don't know that they know, and it's hundreds of years. And with the maturity of some of the Ming Dynasty's technologies, it is not difficult to make these things, but they are not as efficient as the original society!
As for Jiang Lang and the other two, it was windy inside the cabin and it was very cold outside, so it was much warmer inside the cabin!
After driving for more than half a day, the speed of the warship slowed down, and at the same time someone came in and reported: "Sir, you are about to arrive at your destination."
Xue Pan nodded, turned his head to look at Jiang Lang, and said, "Sir^!"
Jiang Lang smiled faintly and said, "Well, you should preside over the presidency!"
Xue Pan nodded and said, "All warships stop and hold a combat meeting immediately!"
At the beginning, I told these warships where they wanted to fight, but now I told these soldiers specific operations, such as where the enemy is, where the attack starts, where the artillery rushes to support them, etc.!
Chapter completed!
