From a distance, it is the high mast, the fluttering sail looks very huge, the largest ship at the end of the Ming Dynasty should belong to the boat that proclaims the national prestige, and there is no such size, the largest ship displacement of the European ships of the same period is not even as good as the sealing of the boat, no matter which country it sails to, it is the same existence as a giant.

A strange feeling, seeing this ship Xiaochuan did not get a happy feeling as usual, only an inexplicable sense of sadness, more than a hundred years later, European warships can be built to more than 4,000 tons, and the Qing Dynasty still maintains the level of the late Ming Dynasty, shaking his head and smiling bitterly, some ships on the side thought that it was the enemy, the pirate ship was quickly taken out of the side of the rocket, or the fire dragon out of the water, and the side line of the Franco machine artillery were aimed at the huge warship coming from afar.

"That's his own people" Qi Mu wiped the fool on his head, waved his hand, and the flag soldiers on the side waved the flag in their hands, and all the sailors stopped loading gunpowder shells, or prepared rockets, and the sailors who began to prepare for launch all stopped their movements, and the captains of each ship stopped their movements and looked at the warships coming from afar.

"Western barbarians can build such a huge ship!" Qi Mu's eyes had a strange taste in his eyes, looking at this giant ship from more than two hundred years later, Xiao Chuan couldn't explain it to him, he couldn't tell you that this was a ship more than two hundred years later, and now the tonnage of European ships still can't catch up with the Ming Dynasty's sealed boats.

"Well, this is a warship of one of their countries, that country perished because of their unique and superb shipbuilding skills were attacked by a group, this is the only giant ship in the world, Xiyi's ship is still about 5,000 materials at most, not a warship yet," Ogawa said.

Oh, Qi Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Pifu is not guilty, he is guilty, such a powerful shipbuilding technology has been attacked by a group, no wonder it is so cheap Daming!" He said, and Mrs. Chu on the side said: "It's a cheap Shandong army!" Qi Mu frowned when he heard this, but did not speak.

"Well, well, the craftsmen who will build ships have committed suicide by throwing themselves into the sea, so the technology to build this big ship no longer exists" Xiao Chuan said, continuing to make nonsense, Qi Mu thought so, admired the quality of the other party, and said, "What an iron-clad man, he committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea, and the Ming Dynasty lacks this kind of righteous man!" ”

Xiao Chuan smiled, there was no iron-clad man who spoke, the warship in the distance approached this lucky ship, the huge ship board four layers of gun deck, one by one dark gun barrels, Xiao Chuan and the others also came to this ship, and made a gesture to Qi Mu not to worry about is to get on the boat with Mrs. Chu, one by one blonde sailors wearing Spanish Navy uniforms, they looked at Xiao Chuan with longing eyes.

"See His Majesty the Emperor" They said in English at the same time, all of them were in English, which made Xiao Chuan very big, he didn't speak English, and wearing the kind of fox smell unique to foreigners made him very uncomfortable, Mrs. Chu also looked at him with disdain, and an officer came up on the side is the captain of the ship, according to the rules, the commander of each foreign army can speak two sentences of Chinese, this is his own experience in summoning all arms of the war.

"My Honorable Emperor, I am the captain of the St. Trinidad, you can call me William" He wore a big felt hat, a naval uniform, and black leather boots under his feet looked very neat and polite, but they were the Spanish Armada that had been rampant at sea for hundreds of years, and the ghost knows why a Spaniard named himself William, eighty percent of them are system bugs.

Coming to this warship, the warship is more than a hundred meters long, walking on it, making a tata sound, His Majesty William glanced at Mrs. Chu, showed an obsessive look, stepped forward and said, "This beautiful lady, can I invite you to dinner?" ”

All the sailors on the side laughed and spoke in English, Xiao Chuan, who had difficulty passing the third level of English, naturally did not understand their words, and Mrs. Chu showed anger and said, "Get out!" ”

William smiled embarrassedly, and Xiao Chuan said, "She is my wife!" William laughed, and hurriedly bowed: "Oh, I didn't know he turned out to be the princess, forgive my majesty, I invite you to my captain's room!" ”

Xiao Chuan got under the plank, and below it was the four-story gun deck, which had a sour smell that made people feel the urge to vomit, and there were kerosene lamps everywhere, and the light inside was a little dim.

"Wipe the deck for me, you lazy boars, if the deck is dirtier than your face tonight, there will be no dinner," said William as he walked down.

When he came to the captain's quarters, the place looked much better and the air was very fresh, and the table was neatly arranged with various items, and he said, "Your Majesty, may I ask you a question?" Why are we here? His expression became serious.

"Huh!" Seeing the captain in front of him who looked curious, Xiao Chuan continued to flicker, pretending to sigh helplessly: "I took you to sea that day to encircle and suppress pirates, but I encountered a storm and came to the world more than two hundred years ago" Xiao Chuan is signature flicker, generally this kind of flickering plus the other party's explosive loyalty is no problem, of course, sometimes it is not good to meet the kind of Qi Mu who is loyal to the Ming royal family.

"Oh, back in the world more than two hundred years ago?" He looked at Xiao Chuan along the window and said, "This seems to be the territory of the Tatars," and Mrs. Chu said: "This is the Ming Dynasty, not the Tatars." ”

"Oh, princess, how have you become a Tartar, oh, not a Ming Dynastyman," he muttered with some difficulty. Xiao Chuan said: "That's a long story, I need your help to help me defeat a sea overlord here!" ”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, with this most powerful warship in Spain, it's easy to deal with a scumbag warship from more than two hundred years ago, and you will feel like fighting a war like a trip," he said with a smile, touching his long beard full of confidence.

"They have more than 3,000 large and small ships, which are suppressed by the firepower of large ships, and the small fireships are approached with crowd tactics," Ogawa said.

"Your Majesty, did you pronounce the wrong word? Three thousand? Oh, do you say a hundred into a thousand, I sometimes make this mistake of slipping the tongue," William said, wiping the sweat stains from his head.

"No, it's more than 3,000 ships, but most of them are small ships," said Ogawa, and William was full of amazement, "God, more than 3,000 warships, why didn't they unify the world back then!" ”

"Huh! It's a long story, you know that the farther you sail, the longer it will take" Ogawa coughed, "You need to fight alongside these ships outside, they are now my men"

"Oh, they don't look like they're very tonnage, I think we should retreat!" William said seriously, pointed to the map, and said, "Maybe we can ask the East India Company for help, I remember they should have been here at the time!" ”
