Chapter 720: Chengke and Chengtai
Zhou Jiao looked at the Pioneer going to sea, and couldn't help but feel weak in his legs.
Accustomed to seeing fishing boats, the first time he came into contact with ships in the East China Sea, he was already shocked and completely disfigured. Now that the ironclad ship, which far surpasses the ships of the East China Sea in terms of size and material, is out to sea, he doesn't even know how to express his shock.
I had to sit down on the ground
The head of the craftsman, Sun Xiaoquan, walked up to Li Tai and knelt on his knees, "King Wei, I don't know the slut Sun Xiaoquan, can you ask you to reward the drawings?" ”
Li Tai asked suspiciously, "What do you want drawings for?" ”
The drawings of the ironclad ship are important, but the key points are the steam engine, the smelting of steel, and the craftsmanship of the craftsmen. Even if the drawings are circulated, no country can produce them.
Sun Xiaoquan sighed and said, "Your Highness, the old man is an ancestral shipwright, and his greatest desire in life is to be able to build a ship, a warship that can look down on the world, so as to pay tribute to his ancestors."
Now that the Pioneer has been launched, the rest of the ships will have to be built based on experience. The old man asked the king of Wei to give the drawings to Zaixia, and he wanted to bring them back to Suzhou to pay tribute to his ancestors. ”
Li Tai helped Sun Xiaoquan up, "The ironclad ship is successfully made, you craftsmen should get a great credit, as a director, your credit is even greater, how can this king refuse your request?"
However, although the leaked drawings are not a big problem, however, this king still wants to send guards to follow you, you have no opinion. ”
Sun Xiaoquan nodded, he was already satisfied with the drawings.
The ironclad ship traveling on the sea is covered with hideous iron thorns.
Although this would cause the hull to be subjected to additional wind resistance, even Leng Feng had to compromise after interviewing the opinions of the soldiers.
Compared with practicality, the soldiers paid more attention to the momentum on the battlefield. Momentum is a thing that can reverse the strength and weakness of the enemy on the battlefield many times. This can be seen from the rare defeats of Datang.
Leng Feng, who was helpless, could only agree to everyone's request and let the craftsmen install iron thorns. When he saw that the hull of the ship under the water was also covered with iron spikes, he couldn't help but sweat profusely
If your own people fall off the boat
Without waiting for Leng Feng to think of remedial measures, Li Ke said, "Master, look at it, the Pioneer is so mighty, after going south, those big cannibals will not have to flee in all directions!" ”
Leng Feng patted Li Ke's shoulder, and at the same time was relieved, "Yes, such a ship is enough to make the enemy frightened!" ”
The Pioneer is strong enough to tolerate the petty willfulness of the Tang soldiers. Falling?
How much does it take for someone who lacks a heart and eye to fall?
The Pioneer left the shore and headed for the target ship that had been prepared at sea.
Less than two hundred paces, the rangefinder arrow was fired into the water not far in front of the target ship. After three or four more breaths, an eight-bull crossbow version of the thunderbolt shot out and slammed into the hull of the target ship.
Rumble!
The thunderbolt exploded, and the small target ship was instantly blown in two.
Immediately after, two more gasoline arrows exploded after hitting the target ship.
Unlike Thunderbolts, Gasoline Arrows are primarily powered by flames.
The explosion was painless, but it exploded gasoline and cotton, frosting and other additives.
It really caught fire wherever it fell, and even if it fell to the water, it was still stubbornly burning.
"Horror! In the face of such weapons, any wooden ship is vulnerable! ”
Zhou Jiao, who has always been a spectator, couldn't help but sigh.
Li Tai said proudly, "That's nature, the crossbow arrows on the ship are protected, and an assembly-line attack has also been formed." The eight-bull crossbow, which originally required more than a dozen breaths to fire, could be successfully launched with only three or four breaths. Such a design is already overkill! ”
Leng Feng smiled and said, "Li Tai is right, it is overkill, after this matter, Datang is the top overlord on the sea, there is no one!" ”
Everyone present couldn't help but be proud.
A strong country is not only reflected in a strong army, but also a manifestation of national strength.
The Pioneer returned, perfectly in the dock under the control of the old fisherman. Shocked enough, the boatmen began to go up to inspect the hull.
After sailing, the most important thing is to check, and not to let the details lead to defeat, which is the biggest ban of Dengzhou Shipyard.
Everything is in good condition for the Vanguard, and after reading the report, Leng Feng handed over the document to Wuli Sima in the shipyard, "The Pioneer is completed, and then its safety will be handed over to you." ”
Wuli Sima Zhang Jingguo took the document and said with a smile, "There is a labor to protect the country, and I will immediately call someone to change the guard!" ”
In the case of the existence of Wuli Sima, it is best to put the power of the military aircraft in their hands.
Although to Leng Feng, this Wuli Sima is not worth mentioning, he does not let go of power, this kid does not dare to rob it at all.
However, delegating power is not only to give Li Shimin a little face, but also to throw out a hot potato. After all, many veterans like to find Wuli Sima to carry the black pot.
Those who can find Wuli Sima to carry the black pot are all close ministers of the Son of Heaven.
After Zhang Jingguo took over the Pioneer 1, he immediately ordered his subordinates to change guards, and even asked his subordinates to re-check according to the guidance of the document.
The emperor usually doesn't cut down the Wuli Sima, but if he loses a sea artifact like the Vanguard, his family's head will not be enough to cut off.
After handing over the Vanguard, Leng Feng called the craftsmen and began to discuss the construction of the next two ships.
The construction of the Pioneer was a game. Because the Pioneer is the largest flagship ship in the fleet, if its construction fails, the waste of materials alone will be unbearable.
But fortunately, the Pioneer competed and went to sea perfectly.
Li Tai took out his second drawing and said with a smile, "This is the design of the second ship, the Pioneer is named after the master, how can the second ship be named after me!" ”
Li Ke, who was acting as Leng Feng's escort on the side, pouted, "It's not big or small, I'm bigger than you, anyway, the second ship is also named after me!" ”
Li Tai took the notebook, pointed at Li Ke and said, "I am the one who has the greatest contribution to shipbuilding, do you want to compare with me?" ”
Li Ke""
Looking at the two princes who were arguing, everyone didn't dare to open their mouths easily.
Immortals fight, mortals suffer!
But Leng Feng didn't care about this, he slapped him one by one, and the quarreling brothers suddenly covered their necks and jumped to their feet.
"You two, have you forgotten anyone? In my opinion, the first ship is called the Chengke, and the second is called the Chengtai. Two ships, your brother's name is used. ”
Li Tai and Li Ke hurriedly nodded.
Recently, for some reason, Master has resumed his hobby of patting people's necks.
The point is, you can't hide from it yet.
Li Ke is full of confidence in his skills, but he still can't escape the clutches of his master.
After finalizing the name, Sun Xiaoquan said, "Protector of the country, shipbuilding is not a problem, the key is that our iron is not enough!" ”
