Chapter 418: Great Qin's Alarm Bell (First Update)

"Huh? This ......"

As soon as Wang Li spoke, Ying Gao knew that this guy must not have taken these into account during the experiment, but all of them were pretended, and they should have been full of more than 2,000 sergeants, so he said the number of 2,000.

"I think Lai'er and others also took into account its loading capacity when testing the performance of this warship, but they forgot about the weight of the grain and grass, but it doesn't matter, if you can load two thousand soldiers, plus the weight of the food and salary, you should be able to load a thousand soldiers."

Although Wang Li did miss something, Yinggao did not blame him for this reason, but estimated the data he wanted based on what he said.

"Your Majesty, where can you use so much of this food and baggage, in my opinion, even if you load enough food and baggage, you can also load 1,500 soldiers!"

It was Sima Xin who said this, Sima Xin's among the generals of Great Qin, he has always been known for daring to speak up, and his temperament is the same as his style when he was fighting, he is straightforward.

And he himself knew that Ying Gao transferred him this time, precisely because he was sent by the First Emperor to supervise the construction of a warship during the period of the First Emperor, which was the warship used by Xu Fu when he went to sea.

So as soon as he saw this new warship, Sima Xin's heart wanted to be excited, he knew how difficult it was to supervise the construction of warships, and it was already very laborious to supervise the construction of warships at that time, not to mention that it is so big now, the hard work in this can be imagined.

When Yinggao said that he could only pretend to be a thousand people, Sima Xin thought that this was really a bit overkill, so he said such a sentence based on his own experience.

But Yinggao's next response made the surrounding generals suddenly have a boiling blood.

"If it is forcibly loaded, it is very possible, but for the sailors of my Great Qin, I must provide the strongest warship and the most comfortable environment, so I can load a thousand people, so that my soldiers of Great Qin can be more comfortable on the ship, why not? Since I can build one, I can build ten, a hundred, but every soldier of Daqin is unique! ”

As soon as these words came out, including Sima Xin, who was refuted by Yinggao, their eyes were already ruddy, and under the leadership of Han Xin, they knelt directly on the ground, chanting words of praise for Yinggao, and the scene was quite grand for a while.

Yinggao didn't expect that a sentence he said casually would have such a good effect, after all, he still said it without water, Sima Xin was right, it could indeed fit 1,500 sergeants, but Yinggao really didn't want to do that.

As for the reason, Yinggao said that it was indeed an important reason, and there were some reasons that were not said, that is, in the state of long-term navigation at sea, if too many sergeants were crowded in the crowded cabin, it was easy for some infectious diseases to break out on the warship, and once such a disease broke out, the unlucky person would be a whole ship.

Therefore, Ying Gao had already thought about it, and he would personally design the cabin of the warship, so that the navy troops who would take the warship to fight in the future could have a relatively comfortable environment, of course, this was also to maintain combat effectiveness, and in the final analysis, it would be a virtuous circle.

The reason why such a simple sentence can make many generals kneel on the ground is not only the words of Yinggao here and now, but also what he has been doing, the soldiers of Daqin have been living a bitter life, a large number of resources and wealth are occupied by nobles, and the treasury under the rule of the First Emperor is not very full.

However, as soon as Yinggao ascended the throne, after a few years, through several new policies and modifications to the Qin law, the wealth in the hands of the Great Qin nobles was pulled out and transferred to the treasury of Great Qin like a trick.

With money and food, Yinggao's confidence is naturally very sufficient, as early as after killing Mao Dun, Yinggao on the grounds of commending the soldiers of Daqin, the soldiers of Daqin have more than doubled, others don't know, but they are all generals who know, in the barracks of Daqin, they have never seen the sergeants support their emperor so much, no one else has done it, but Yinggao really did it.

"What do you mean by this, hurry up, look at the ship, look at the ship......"

In the face of such a tearful situation, Yinggao was very calm, while continuing to walk forward by himself, while signaling the generals who were kneeling down to get up, which made Feng Qing and Tian Yan, who were following Yinggao, look very worshipful.

At this time, Tian Yan's heart once again affirmed that his original decision was really right, if he had given Yinggao the result with a sword when he was dancing with a sword, Daqin didn't know what the chaos would be like now, let alone how many people of Daqin would die because of the war caused by Yinggao's death, if it was really at that time, Tian Yan knew that he would really become a sinner in the world, and it would be impossible to get such a happy life.

Of course, what Tian Yan didn't know was that the sword she was holding in her hand at the time was a sword with a mechanism, and once she really stabbed Yinggao, nothing would happen except that the tip of the sword would retract.

After asking the question of loading capacity, Yinggao did not ask any more questions, but took care of himself to look at almost the inside and outside of the ship, and then waved his hand and asked Wang Li to lead the way to Shouchun City.

After this period of trekking, Yinggao is indeed very tired, and he was able to rely on his interest in warships to barely hold on to coming here, but after seeing the warships, a sense of sleepiness hit, and Yinggao really couldn't hold on.

Of course, Wang Li also knew about everyone's long journey, and he didn't hesitate at the moment, and directly brought Yinggao and his party into Shouchun City.

When he arrived in Shouchun, Ying Gao was a little surprised that Wang Li did not arrange himself in his county temple, but took himself to a mansion not far from the county temple, which was very fresh.

According to what Wang Li said, this mansion was just renovated by a nobleman in the county, and he had not lived in it yet, just when Yinggao caught up, Wang Li thought about it again and again or decided to requisition it, and what he didn't expect was that as soon as the nobleman heard that the emperor was going to come as a temporary palace, he happily agreed at that time, and even didn't ask for any compensation, but just let Wang Li re-assign a house to their family in Shouchun City, which shows what kind of popularity Yinggao has reached among the people of Daqin.

After Yinggao repeatedly confirmed that this was indeed the willingness of the nobleman, he agreed to Wang Li's arrangement, and he still agreed with Wang Li's decision to give the other family equivalent compensation.

According to Wang Li, at noon the next day, he would hold a reception banquet for Yinggao in Shouchun City, and several county orders near Jiujiang County would also be present, and Chen Ying, the county guard of Huiji County, was also coming from Wu County, and it would be around noon the next day.

Yinggao, who has never advocated extravagance and waste, this time he did not stop Wang Li's reception banquet for the first time, he just said to Wang Li that he would definitely be there, and then swaggered into the room that Wang Li had already arranged for him, and at this time, no one could disturb Ying's Yaxing, who was shouting and sleeping soundly.

This night, Ying Gao naturally wouldn't have anything to do with Feng Qing and Tian Yan, and the mansion that Wang Li found for them had four or five bedrooms, and there was still a surplus of wealth in one of them, which made Ying Gao slander Wang Li in secret, and said that this person really didn't know how to speculate on the emperor's thoughts, so why don't you think about what I brought the two ladies to for.

At noon the next day, Yinggao left Feng Qing and Tian Yan in the mansion to rest, while he took the Zhu family to the county temple in Shouchun County, where Wang Li arranged a feast for Yinggao.

After Yinggao arrived, he saw Chen Ying hurriedly bring a group of officials to come to greet him, because Yinggao came very suddenly, so Chen Ying hurried over from Wu County after learning about it, but he still didn't see Yinggao on the first day.

Although the location of Yinggao's patrol is Jiujiang County, Chen Ying is also the person he must see, because in the place under his rule, there is really a place near the sea, and if the Daqin naval army wants to develop, it is definitely not possible to practice on the river alone, the sea is where they must set foot in, so Chen Ying is bound to play a key role in the future development of the Great Qin naval army.

When the banquet began, Yinggao had no rules, while signaling the officials present to be more comfortable, while eating a lot of Jiujiang County's specialties.

But what the people below didn't know was that when Yinggao was full of food and drink, the true purpose of this banquet had just been revealed.

"Princes, I am here today, not only for General Wang Li's reception, but also to take advantage of this banquet to announce some matters to the princes."

The emperor said that he wanted to announce some matters, so can there be a trivial matter, definitely not, this time, everyone who was still staggering under the bottom suddenly became honest, and they all looked at Yinggao intently, wanting to see what kind of things he would announce in this realm.

In fact, Yinggao announced his decision at this banquet, which was also considered to be well thought out, because at this banquet, not only the generals he brought were there, but also the officials of Jiujiang County, and even the officials of Huiji County.

Seeing that everyone's attention had been attracted by Yinggao, Yinggao cleared his throat and was ready to start his performance.

"I saw the warship built by Wang Li and Chen Ying in Jiujiang County yesterday, and I was very relieved, this warship is the warship that my Great Qin needs, the credit of the two of you for these years should not be in vain, this cup deserves my respect for the two."

After finishing speaking, Yinggao picked up a bottle of wine on his table and drank it all.

Although they had thought that they might be praised by the emperor, on such an occasion, Wang Li and Chen Ying still felt a little flattered, and the two hurriedly came out when they heard this, and while drinking all the wine in their hands, they thanked Yinggao repeatedly.

"But do you know why I spent so much manpower and material resources to build a warship of this scale? Say whatever you want, whether it is in my heart or not, I will forgive you and other sins today! ”

Ying Gao knew that he must not dare to answer when he asked directly, so he added such a sentence at the end, although it felt very awkward to say it, but after Ying Gao finished speaking, he found that this pardon for their innocence was still very effective, and many people showed a look of eagerness, wanting to guess the emperor's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, we can use these warships to find the immortal mountain on the sea as Xu Fu said before, once we find the immortal mountain, we can protect the monarch for a long life, and my great Qin rivers and mountains will be forever!"

At this time, a county magistrate who had already drunk a few bottles of wine just now knelt on the ground and said loudly.

"I don't believe in the so-called overseas immortal mountains, and I won't live forever, but the rivers and mountains of Great Qin, I will at least ensure that I am extremely stable during my reign."

After saying this, the man also knew that he seemed to be a little speechless, so he could only retreat stupidly.

When Han Xin saw this situation, he said in his heart that it was better not to let those guys who didn't understand anything stand up and talk nonsense, and he still understood the purpose of Yinggao's question, which was nothing more than to instill a little knowledge in these coastal officials.

So, Han Xin hurriedly stood up, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "According to the faith, although the territory of my Great Qin is vast, but Xu Fu has already proved before that the sea water around Great Qin is much wider than the territory of Great Qin, and on the sea, there is a dynasty that is no different from my Great Qin, although some are not civilized, and the combat power is not worth mentioning, but once there is a dynasty that is stronger than my Great Qin's combat power, it will be a hidden crisis in the future of my Great Qin, so my Great Qin wants to use the current time to build a strong warship, Then train the trolls, just in case! ”

Han Xin's analysis is actually nothing more than copying Yinggao's previous theory, but the people here are hearing about it for the first time, they still didn't believe it at the beginning, and some didn't even know what Han Xin said.

But before the discussion began, Yinggao spoke first.

"What General Han Xin said is very much in line with my wishes, and the scouts I sent before have already said that in the south of Nanhai County, there is likely to be a dynasty with armed forces, as for how large it is, it is unknown, but just this is enough to sound the alarm for my Great Qin."
