Shen Kuo smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, the warship is sturdy and unscathed......"

Lu Chengqi wondered: "Then why didn't Shen Qing see joy on his face?" "You know, the new warship is all Shen Kuo's hard work, there is no reason why the mother and son cannons can be loaded on the ship, Shen Kuo will be unhappy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Lu Chengqi has insight into people's hearts, he still has his own set, no matter how he says it, he has done sales, and he has dealt with people a lot, so he will naturally master this skill.

Sure enough, Shen Kuo shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the minister still underestimated the power of the cannon......"

Lu Chengqi was shocked, could it be that his guess was true?

I only heard Shen Kuo continue: "Keel technology can indeed ensure that the hull is strong and durable, and if it is properly maintained, it will not be a problem to use it for fifty years." It's just that after installing this sub-mother cannon, I'm afraid it can only be used for about ten years......"

Lu Chengqi said in a deep voice: "Why is this? ”

Shen Kuo explained: "Back to Your Majesty, whether it is the keel or the hull of the new warship, it is all made of mortise and tenon joints. Such a structure is not afraid of high winds and waves, but is afraid of this kind of shaking. The minister has calculated that if there are four sub-cannons, a single salvo can move the ship two feet away......"

Lu Chengqi was a little surprised, the sub-mother cannon was a Fran machine gun, how could it be so powerful? In this way, it is not that the power of the sub-mother cannon is too small, but that the power is too great, and the new warship cannot withstand such great power. "The three Qing families, is there a solution?" Adhering to the principle of never wasting what can be used, Lu Chengqi looked at the six cannon windows with a little sadness and said so.

The three of them looked at each other, and Tang Xun said: "Your Majesty, this can only reduce the power of the sub-mother cannon......"

There is indeed only one way to go, Lu Chengqi smiled bitterly: "Then what if the entire hull is cast in iron?" ”

The three of them were stunned, this little emperor really dared to think of anything! Mo said that the entire hull was cast in iron, that is, the keel was cast in iron, which was very difficult. No way, with the current iron-smelting technology, the big iron-making ship is simply not realistic! Besides, can iron float on water?

Shen Kuo was stunned and asked, "Your Majesty, can this iron build ships?" ”

Lu Chengqi was also stunned and said, "Why can't it?" As long as the gravity of the water discharged below the waterline is sufficient to balance the gravity of the ship itself, the ship will not sink......"

The three of them looked at each other, and Lu Chengqi was a little panicked: "You don't know this? ”

The three of them shook their heads in unison, and Lu Chengqi hurriedly changed the topic and said, "I also read Western miscellaneous books, and I don't know if it's right, you have time to test it...... Now the key thing is how to solve the problem of artillery loading......"

Su Song didn't speak all the time, but now he finally spoke: "Your Majesty, why don't you make the sub-mother cannon one smaller like this?" ”

Lu Chengqi nodded and said, "It should be like this, the ship's artillery is one size smaller, and the rest of the sub-mother cannons still have to be so powerful." The power of the ship's guns still needs to be there, and the balance is up to you. ”

Shen Kuo nodded, the sub-mother cannon was a design that he had in a flash of inspiration. As for the power, they haven't figured it out yet. How easy is it to master the balance of power? Tang Xun's mind was spinning quickly, and he suddenly said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this. Just put the charge a little less, isn't it? ”

Wake up the person in the dream with a word, Lu Chengqi didn't expect that there was such a trick. Indeed, the power of black and gunpowder depends on the proportion and weight of gunpowder.

Lu Chengqi stroked his palm and said: "Tang Qing is just a fast brain, yes, this method is good!" If you encounter a land battle, you can also push the sub-mother cannon down from the ship, killing two birds with one stone! However, you have to experiment with this charge many times to get it out. In the training of the forbidden army, it depends on the standards you have set......"

The three of them nodded, and Shen Kuo said tentatively: "Your Majesty, this sub-mother cannon has been loaded and fired, is it time to go back?" The three of them all knew that Lu Chengqi had been assassinated. Not only the three people knew, but almost the whole world knew about it. There is no way, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and a person like the emperor who is so high up that he can hardly look directly can still be assassinated. This incident is enough to serve as a conversation for the people of Dashun after tea and dinner for several years.

At this time, on the river, except for more than ten Chang'an Navy Division Tiger Wing soldiers on the boat, there were almost no guards. In this case, if anyone knew that the little emperor was on the boat and desperately approached the assassination, then the sin would be great. Lu Chengqi has no sons, not even a close relative, if he hangs up, Dashun will be completely messed up.

Lu Chengqi was also excited, thinking that they had made several sub-mother cannons, but he didn't expect only one. That kind of earth-destroying salvo still couldn't be seen, and Lu Chengqi was not interested in staying any longer, and said, "Okay, let's go back first." Shen Qing, Tang Qing, Su Qing, you want a snack on this cannon. There is only more than a year left in the three-year treaty with Liao, and the last sneak attack on the Luanhe Palace greatly damaged the vitality of Liao, but it was not deeply hurt. In this way, between Shunliao and Liao, the grievances are even deeper, alas......"

The three of them glanced at each other and understood that even if he was a little emperor, he had a lot of troubles. Not only do you have to worry about domestic affairs, but also foreign affairs. No wonder the little emperor wants to remove the prime minister and set up a cabinet. The cabinet divides the power of the prime minister, otherwise if all the political affairs are entrusted to Zaifu, the authority is too great, and even the emperor has to be afraid of three points, how can this work?

The new warship sailed extremely fast in the wind and rain. It's just that the sail operator is hard, and he has to control the sail in the drizzle, and he is soaked.

Lu Chengqi looked into the distance, looking at the rivers and mountains that belonged to him and belonged to the whole Han people, and he had a lot of thoughts for a while.

The advent of firearms and factories marked the beginning of the industrial revolution. But now there is not even a steam engine, let alone an internal combustion engine. "Do I really want to bring China into that era ahead of schedule?" Lu Chengqi's thoughts flew, remembering all kinds of haze in the later life, Lu Chengqi was a little hesitant in his heart. When I came to this era, I saw the blue sky and white clouds that I couldn't see in later generations, and I really couldn't bear this fresh air. But there is no way, the Han people are an agrarian people, and the individual is not strong, and they must rely on unity and wisdom to continue to survive. Unlike nomads, nomads are fierce hunters, born with bows and horses. If you fight for your body, the Han people will never be able to fight. Maybe you can rely on your will to fight a war or two. Once life is stable, whether it is Han people or nomads, they are greedy for pleasure and do not want to forge ahead, that is, "there is no home at home, no foreign patients outside the country, and the country will perish......

Thinking like this, before I knew it, the new warship had returned to the dock.

And Gao Ho and a group of imperial guards were already waiting for him under the eaves of the dock at this moment. Seeing him get off the boat, Gao Ho hurriedly opened an oil-paper umbrella and ran over to hold an umbrella for him. (To be continued.) )
