"Zhao Gao. Invite Mr. Qin to come immediately. King Qin said after listening to the news of Li Si's report.

"Whoa." Zhao Gao nodded respectfully in agreement.

"Wait. Call Wang Ben casually. King Qin then ordered.

"Whoa." Zhao Gao respectfully and slowly withdrew.

Shang Wen was holding his notebook and was constantly joting down something. Shang Wen considered that the potential of the Flying Eagle 1 had been basically exhausted. The first is the limited load capacity. And that damn powerplant. All this has doomed the Flying Eagle 1 to be no longer able to upgrade. Redesign of another airship.

Shang Wen began to sketch in his notebook. The first draft of the design for the Flying Eagle II. Shang Wen felt that the overall scale of the Flying Eagle 2 must be further expanded. The length and width should be more than double that of the original Flying Eagle 1, in order to provide strong power. A steam engine must be used. This is already an indisputable fact. I tested the Flying Eagle 1 last time. Manpower is no longer fully able to withstand the interference of strong winds. Then there's the overall structure. Ironwork was most likely needed in part. Iron is not an iron pipe. The wing section needs to be reprocessed from wood. The method of hollowing out is already very backward. It must be machined. Lightweight manufacturing. Strength of wood. Shang Wen summarizes the precautions for improvement.

At this time, Wang Ben couldn't wait to get on the airship. The airship slowly lifted into the air. His soldiers cheered. Shang Wen couldn't help but smile. This guy loves to be in the limelight.

There are a lot of problems with airships. Shang Wen listed a whole bunch of questions. But the most important question is when the airship has to have a strong heart. The steam engine is the core power of the airship. This has been very prominent. And judging by all the current installations. The Qin army also lacked effective means of transportation, even horse-drawn carriages, which were only used by the army, and a large number of supply vehicles were all ox carts. Speed, load capacity, can not be compared. Improvements to the steam engine to make it more miniaturized and easy to install. That's the most important thing. If you don't make a change. Arsenals need a lot of iron, coal. It will bring down the country hard.

Cheap and fast means of transport. Shang Wen recorded it in his notebook. This is my primary job at the moment, and the work of muskets and artillery is left to others to do. What I provide myself is the drawings. Exegesis. The rest of the processing is left to the craftsmen to figure out by themselves. Shang Wen firmly believes that Chinese have never lacked innovation. What is lacking is opportunity. It's the platform.

The airship is already flying freely in the air. The soldiers followed the airship back and forth like wild horses. Shangwen stopped recording. Look at the scene in front of you. A soldier of the Qin army who has never conquered the sky. Seeing your own generals can take to the skies. All of a sudden, it aroused the competitive spirit among the soldiers of the Qin army.

"Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin. Zhao Gao shouted breathlessly.

Shang Wen turned his head when he heard the voice and looked at Zhao Gao, who was sweating profusely.

"What?" Shang Wen asked calmly.

"Your Majesty, the King, please consult with you on a major matter. Where is General Wang. The king also invited him. Zhao Gao said.

"That". Shang Wen pointed to the airship in the sky and said.

Zhao Gao was a little surprised when he saw the airship. Then it was a little difficult. Because he didn't know how to call Wang Ben down.

"Forget it, I'll go first. Let him follow. Shang Wen said.

"That's, that's it." Zhao Gao said helplessly.

Shang Wen followed Zhao Gao to the Qin Palace. Seeing that King Qin and Li Si were discussing something again.

"Meet the King." Shang Wen saluted.

"Get up." King Qin waved his hand and said.

"Zhao bought an artillery piece from Chu. Yan Guo is very anxious now, and needs to see the musket immediately. Does Mr. Qin have any countermeasures? King Qin said straight to the point.

Shang Wen heard the news. So fast. The production of their own muskets has just been solved with the production of barrels. Mass production is still not possible. The craftsmen worked hard. More than fifty muskets were produced in one day. It's basically the limit. If only it was solved in a short period of time. No way. It's really impossible.

Shang Wen frowned. King Qin looked at Shang Wen. Lees also watched. Looking forward to Shang Wen's approach.

"Your Majesty, the production of this musket is very limited. In such a short period of time. It's hard to do. Shang Wen said and pulled out his "notebook." Flipping through the notebook, Shang Wen said like a treasure.

"The current production of muskets. Production at full capacity, capable of producing fifty muskets a day. More than three artillery pieces. Shang Wen said according to the notebook.

King Qin and Li Si stared curiously at Shang Wen's "notebook".

"Unless. Unless. Shang Wen said after seeing the current size of the Musketeers.

"Oh. What the? King Qin said.

"Unless you hand over all the muskets of my Great Qin's musket team." Shang Wen said.

Li Si gasped. The musket team, which had been formed with great difficulty, has now handed over all the muskets it is equipped with. Give it to the six countries. This, this is basically a collaborator.

King Qin was even more puzzled. It's too bold to be.

"The musket that my Great Qin Musket Team is currently equipped with. Calibre. style, are not uniform. It's very uncoordinated to train. Shang Wen explained.

"These muskets are basically scrap. I, Daqin, can re-plan and manufacture new standard muskets. Unified caliber. Length. bullets and so on. And what to do with the musket in the hand became a problem. Continued use affects the familiarity of soldiers with the weapon, and there are many problems. It's better to sell them all as weapons to Yan Guo. Shang Wen said slowly. I'm sorting out my thoughts in my head. This trick also came to me suddenly.

"In addition, I, Daqin, will send a team of more than a dozen people. Nominally to help the Yan soldiers get acquainted with muskets. Secretly observe. Summarize the application of muskets on the battlefield. ”

"Can the prime minister ask the envoy of the Yan Kingdom? Do they need artillery. If needed. I, Daqin, can provide thirty pieces of artillery. Shang Wen said as he looked at the notes in his hand.

King Qin was even more surprised. What is this guy doing. Do you want to sell Qin Jun's family money?

"Your Majesty need not worry. The caliber of these guns was very small. The two-inch caliber is basically no longer able to meet the needs of operations. Moreover, these guns did not experience real combat. The minister thought, and then the two countries of Yan and Zhao fought. Try the power of artillery. And then improve. Shang Wen said.

"Yes." King Qin listened to Shang Wen's explanation and felt that it was okay. After all, these guns were not tested. And you have to send a team to observe the effect of these cannons. Nowadays, there is basically no fighting. Why not use such an opportunity on top of that.
