Chapter 471: Salute fired
Zhu Hao took a huge ship and gradually approached the island of Taiwan, which made Zhou Yu, who heard the report on the island, very nervous after checking it.
Zhou Yu didn't know at all what this behemoth was that gradually appeared in front of him, and whether it was friend or foe, he didn't figure it out, so he immediately ordered all the soldiers on the island to enter combat preparations.
Although this huge ship gave Zhou Yu a feeling that he couldn't resist, he thought in his heart that the soldier was a confidant and died, and he couldn't lose the island of Taiwan that Zhu Hao had just recovered in his hands.
Therefore, he decided to fight to the death, even if he fought to the death, he would fight off this behemoth.
Zhou Yu, who was ready for battle, immediately shouted to the giant ship:
"The ships in front, you have entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty, please stop advancing and accept inspection, otherwise we will see you invading our territory and open fire immediately!"
"The ships in front, you have entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty, please stop advancing and accept inspection, otherwise we will see you invading our territory and open fire immediately!"
……
Zhou Yu shouted the same thing three times, Zhu Hao was standing on the deck, listening to Zhou Yu's shouting, touching his nose, and said secretly:
"I'll it, this Zhou Yu, treat this king as an intruder!"
"But this alertness is good, and it deserves praise!"
When Zhu Hao was praising Zhou Yu in his heart, Zhou Yu had already finished shouting three times, and what happened in the next second made Zhu Hao no longer in the mood to praise Zhou Yu.
Because Zhou Yu shouted three times, the other party did not respond, and there was no sign of stopping, so he immediately ordered to fire.
With hundreds of red-coated cannons, ignited and fired at the same time, the huge roar really scared Zhu Hao on the ship, but then the burst of shells exploded on the giant ship, and the sound was even more harsh, making Zhu Hao forget to be afraid.
He immediately shouted to the shore in a furious rage:
"Lao Tzu is Zhu Youzhen, Zhou Yu, you bastard, you actually bombarded Lao Tzu with cannons, you don't want to live!"
Zhu Hao's voice, under the roar of hundreds of red-clothed cannons, could not reach the island at all.
However, at this time, the flag officer on the ship immediately issued a flag to the shore, telling Zhou Yu that he was his own person, and Zhu Hao was also on the ship, so Zhou Yu immediately stopped shooting.
When Zhou Yu saw the flag on the giant ship, he knew that it was his own ship, and at the same time knew that Zhu Hao was still on the ship.
Knowing this, Zhou Yu broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly ordered someone to stop shooting, and then walked to the front of the dock in person, ready to ask Zhu Hao for his guilt.
As Zhou Yu stopped the bombardment, Zhu Hao didn't care about scolding Zhou Yu anymore, and hurriedly ordered someone to inspect the ship to see if the hull was damaged and whether there was any water leakage.
At the same time, Zhu Hao was ready to jump ship to escape, fortunately, it was not very far from the shore, and Zhu Hao was sure that he could swim to the shore.
Just when Zhu Hao organized people and was about to jump ship collectively, Lu Ban in the operation room walked out and stopped Zhu Hao from saying:
"Your Highness, you don't have to be like this, there is no problem with the ship, it will not leak!"
"But the first time it went into the water, it didn't encounter enemy attacks, but was baptized by its own artillery fire!"
"Weichen must go ashore and ask for an explanation from the guard!"
Zhu Hao looked at Lu Ban with a confident face, his expression was a little surprised, and then he asked:
"Lord Gongyi, just now this king vaguely saw that many cannonballs hit the hull of the ship, how can the ship not leak in such a situation!"
"You better hurry up and prepare and jump ship with this king to escape!"
"Otherwise, if you are taken underwater by this big guy, and if you want to escape, you won't have a chance!"
Zhu Hao said, and was about to step forward and jump ship, Lu Ban saw this, grabbed Zhu Hao's sleeve, and said eagerly:
"Your Highness, you have to believe in Weichen, what Weichen has created himself, you know it in your heart!"
"Besides, didn't you have the ship inspected?"
"It's not too late for you to wait for their news!"
Zhu Hao listened to Lu Ban's words, hesitated slightly, and then said:
"Okay!"
"Then the king, just wait for those who inspect to come back, but if the king finds that the ship is sinking, he will jump ship immediately, and then you don't stop the king, jump with the king!"
"And order everyone, all on deck, so that the ship does not sink under the water and cannot escape!"
With Zhu Hao's order, those who were sent out to inspect the ship had already returned, and they returned to Zhu Hao, telling Zhu Hao that the ship was only on the hull, with some slight craters, and no water leakage was found.
Zhu Hao listened to the words of these people, a little incredulous, and asked again:
"It's not a trivial matter, you can check it out!"
The few people who went out to check hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied in a leading voice:
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I have been waiting everywhere, and I have inspected it three times in detail, and the ship has indeed come out of a slight crater, and there is no damage!"
Zhu Hao listened to this person's words, took a deep breath, calmed down the excitement in his heart, and let these people get up, and then he looked at Lu Ban and said:
"Lord Gongyi, how did you build this boat?"
"Why can't the red-clothed cannon hurt him in the slightest!"
"The steamship you built really gave this king too many surprises!"
Lu Ban listened to Zhu Hao's words, and said with a smug expression:
"Your Highness, this steamship, but the treasury and the Holy Lord's internal funds, all emptied, if you can't resist the cannonballs, then the money will be wasted, and the Holy Lord will definitely give me the guilt at that time!"
"Therefore, as early as when we started to select materials, Weichen tested that the overall material of this steamship can withstand the attack of the red-coated cannon!"
"Please rest assured Your Highness about this, as for its materials, it is also extremely rare, it is extraterrestrial meteoric iron plus a hundred refined iron!"
Zhu Hao listened to Lu Ban's words, and secretly exclaimed in his heart:
"Meteorite plus 100 iron?"
"Isn't that an alloy?"
"This Luban is really worthy of being the originator of craftsmen!"
"The sturdiness of this huge ship can withstand the bombardment of the red-coated cannons, so in this era, what other weapons can hurt it?"
"It's all walking on water, sea tank!"
With the conversation between Zhu Hao and Lu Ban, the giant ship has docked, at this moment Zhou Yu is at the dock, standing silently with his head down, after Zhu Hao and Lu Ban stepped off the boat, Zhu Hao said to Zhou Yu as soon as possible:
"Zhou Dudu, this king came to Taiwan, you are so, use hundreds of red-clothed cannons, welcome me?"
"You really are, give this king a big gift!"
"This is really a 'salute'!"
