After testing the water properties of the soldiers, everyone entered the camp.

Finished eating.

Yuan Xi called Ma Jun and Yu Ban.

"Tomorrow morning, I'm leaving here for the Yellow Sea. General Yu Ban also went with me. Ma Jun continued to supervise the construction of warships. You said in your letter that if you want to supervise the construction of large warships, you still need to determine the type of ship, do you have a ship type now? Yuan Xi looked at Ma Jun.

"Yes." Ma Jun took out a drawing: "Please take a look at it." This is a large warship drawn by the ministers and their masters. His materials and hull, speed, load-bearing capacity, etc., have been calculated. ”

Yuan Xi took it and looked at it.

The height of the warship was about 15 meters, the width was 20 meters, and the length was 40 meters, and it was divided into two floors, including a rooftop. The left and right fences are made of iron, with many deep circular holes, which are supposed to be used to hide archers. The soldiers crouched there and could shoot enemy ships. On the second deck of the warship, eight small trebuchets were placed, as well as twenty heavy crossbows.

The sail is large, with four sides, and can rise to a height of 20 meters.

"If it is feasible to build this ship, let it be built as such." Yuan Xi handed the drawings back to Ma Jun.

"Don't you need to modify it, lord?"

"What else to modify?"

Ma Jun replied: "We think its hull is too small, it can be bigger. However, when the back of the ship was enlarged, it was too expensive. Because of the expansion of the hull, the amount of wrought iron required was a huge amount, and the manpower required was also high. If the lord agrees, we can give it a try. By then, it might be able to carry thousands of people. The enemy's ships will not be able to match it. ”

"Then what are you waiting for, change!" Yuan Xi didn't say a word, and agreed to Ma Jun's suggestion: "You don't have to worry about money, just ask for it." I have already greeted him, and he will approve everything about the cost of building the navy. ”

"Yes."

Ma Jun replied excitedly: "The minister will definitely do it." ”

"Does the lord have a map of Jeju Island and the Shandong Peninsula?" Yu Ban asked.

"I haven't been to those two islands either, how can there be? When I leave tomorrow, I'll go and investigate. Regardless of the terrain, it will be reached. It's not too late to explore when we get there. ”

Yu Bandao: "The last general has prepared food for a month, I don't know if it's enough?" ”

Yuan Xi said: "Those two islands are near the sea, and if you can catch wild animals, you shouldn't have to worry about meat." All you need to do is bring more corn and vegetables. For the time being, it should be enough to bring a month. ”

"Yes."

After continuing to discuss for a while, Ma Jun and Yu Ban both left the account.

............................

At this time, in Xuchang, Yanzhou, a small event happened.

Cao Cao's chief strategist, Guo Jia, with a porcelain wine bottle in his hand, hurried to Cao Cao's prime minister's mansion and asked to see Cao Cao. Cao Cao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly recruited him in: "Fengxiao, why do you want to see me?" ”

"Prime Minister, good news, good news..." Guo Jia ran forward with a smile and bowed his hand: "Congratulations to the prime minister, congratulations to the prime minister!" ”

"What congratulations? Hershey? What the hell is going on? Now that Yuan Xi's strength is getting stronger and stronger, he is about to use troops against me, what is there to congratulate? Cao Cao still had a lot of sadness on his face.

"Please come with your ministers." Guo Jia walked to the courtyard outside.

Cao Cao was curious and followed Guo Jia.

When he arrived in the courtyard outside, Guo Jia held a bottle of elixir and jade liquor in his hand and asked, "Does the prime minister know, what is this?" ”

"Wine? Yuan Xi's elixir jade liquor? ”

"That's right, it's the Qiong Jelly Jade Liquor. But his role now is not just for drinking. Guo Jia was so excited that he ordered someone to bring a torch, stuff a piece of cotton cloth into the mouth of the bottle, and then light it with fire and throw it more than ten meters away.

Rumble!

Suddenly, the bottle exploded, destroying a large area of vegetation and a deep pit appeared in the ground.

Cao Cao was greatly surprised, and said in a trembling voice: "This, this, this... Why did it explode? ”

Guo Jia said excitedly: "The minister doesn't know. However, the power of the explosion of the jade liquor can damage the surrounding grass and trees, and it will inevitably hurt the soldiers. ”

"Hahahaha, okay..."

Cao Cao reacted, walked excitedly to a place more than ten meters away, saw the damaged grass and trees, looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's really heaven that doesn't kill me, heaven doesn't kill me...!" ”

"Prime Minister, quickly order the purchase of the Qiong Jelly Jade Liquid Bar, don't miss this great opportunity." Guo Jiadao.

"Well, you're right. If you have such a good thing, how can you miss it? Cao Cao nodded heavily.

"If Yuan Xi knew the purpose of the Qiong Jelly Jade Liquor, he would definitely not sell it anymore. Let's hurry. ”

Cao Cao said: "This matter is known to the two of us, and it must not be leaked." Immediately send a caravan to Hebei to buy a large amount of agar jade liquor. Even if you use up all your money, you have to block the market. ”

"No."

Guo Jia received the order.

...........

Guo Jia's discovery can be said to have given Cao Cao great hope. After the elixir jade liquor is ignited, and then collided, it can produce a huge power. If this is thrown on Yuan Xi's giant beast, won't it blow up a large piece?

And when attacking the city, use a trebuchet to throw the wine bottle out and hit the enemy's tower, wouldn't it be invincible and victorious?

Suddenly, Cao Cao's fear of Yuan Xi was greatly reduced. For the warlords of Xiliang, they also have the confidence and intention of compulsory conquest. Perhaps before the war with Yuan Xi, he would be able to obtain more land and greater strength.

Next.

Yu Ban prepared everything.

The 3,000 sailors and the 300 guards of Wen Chou boarded more than 20 warships.

Yuan Xi took the four disagreements, took Gao Ling, and set off first and flew to Jeju Island. According to the memory of modern maps, the location of Jeju Island should be in the northeast direction, diagonally towards the exit of the Daryū River.

Whew...

The four did not fly into the sky and flew for miles.

Gao Ling hugged Yuan Xi, his face was close to his back, and said softly: "It's good that I'm here..." ”

"What?" The wind was too strong, and Yuan Xi didn't hear it clearly.

Gao Ling raised his voice: "I said.... Good thing I'm here? Otherwise, how can I have the opportunity to see the outside world with my husband? ”

Yuan Xi smiled: "It's not the outside world, it's just two islands, and it's only a thousand miles away from our Jizhou." If you want to go, I can take you there at any time. ”

"Really?"

"Of course."

Gao Ling seemed very happy and said, "Okay, if we have a chance in the future, we will definitely come again." ”

The four discords kept flying in the northeast direction without stopping for a moment. At its speed, it can travel tens of miles in an instant, faster than the strengthened Maxima.

A few hours later.

Yuan Xi saw that there was a large black spot in the sea below, and hurriedly ordered Si Buxiang: "It's there, land down quickly." "The four did not receive the order and descended rapidly.

Gao Ling looked down and frowned, "It's just that big." Is this Jeju Island? ”

"Well, it's Jeju Island. However, don't look at him as small now. When we landed, we stood in the sky above Jeju Island, and it was very large. Even the fastest horse can take several days to circumnavigate. Yuan Xi explained.
