The breeze on the wide sea was blowing, and the Son of Heaven in military uniform smelled the sea breeze full of the smell of the sea, his nose was a little itchy, and he wanted to rub it, but the ministers were around, and he was embarrassed to always pick his nose, so he had to rub it when he drank tea, as the Son of Heaven, he knew that tea could not be drunk more, because he had to relieve his hands after drinking too much tea, and he would be in the palace, but now it was on the ship, and the civil and military officials were all around, and he went to relieve himself alone?

Xiao Huangmen, who is in charge of pouring tea for the Son of Heaven, is very strange, His Majesty has drunk tea so many times today, how can a cup of tea still be full. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Fortunately, everyone didn't pay much attention to the Son of Heaven, their eyes were on the nearly 100 broken ships on the sea in the distance as an imaginary enemy, these ships were the closest trophies of the East China Sea Governor Su's thick legs, some of the pirates were co-opted, some were killed, and the remaining ships exerted their last residual heat and acted as the object of the trampling of the Yue State Sailors.

The 5,000 Yue Naval Divisions came from four fleets, 1,000 each from the East China Sea Fleet, the South China Sea Fleet, and the West Sea Fleet, and 2,000 from the Funan Fleet. The poles and crossbows of the four ships were ready, the sails had been lowered, and the soldiers were holding their posts with their weapons in hand, but now they all saluted to the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven was very curious, and asked Zhang Zhao, the captain who was accompanying him: "Why are the ships of the Yue Guo Navy Division two-story?" ”

Zhang Zhao said solemnly: "According to the courtesy, the Son of Heaven ship has four layers, the king has three layers, and ordinary generals can only have two layers." ”

The Son of Heaven glanced at Zhang Zhao and let out an "oh" as if he didn't understand. Sun Quan, who was standing on the other side, rolled his eyes speechlessly, and when the old Zhang Zhao said nonsense with his eyes open, the Yue Guolou ship did not build four floors, because the four floors were easy to turn, and it had a fart relationship with the dignity of the emperor. However, at this time, he didn't want to offend Zhang Zhao, firstly, Zhang Zhao was nominally the teacher of King Yue and his middle father of Sun Quan, and secondly, Zhang Zhao was now the third duke by the side of the Son of Heaven, and his status was noble, Zhang Zhao didn't take him seriously before, and now if he takes the opportunity to stink him, he can only endure it.

"Are you sure it's okay?" At the bow of the Tianzilou ship, Sun Shao looked at Ge Heng and Lu Shan with a nervous face: "If you are not sure, it doesn't matter if we don't try, if the performance is smashed, it will be a shame." ”

Ge Heng clenched his fists, his face was also very nervous, his hands were clenched tightly, and he hesitated. Lu Shan greeted the sunshine in the east, squinted at the imaginary enemy in the distance, and when he was silent for two or three breaths, he turned his head and said, "Your Highness, the minister is eighty percent sure." ”

"Eighty?" Sun Shao asked.

"Well, that's still a conservative estimate, if all goes well, it's going to be eighty out of five to ninety."

Sun Shao looked at Lu Shan with some suspicion, Lu Shan's face was calm and his eyes were clear. Sun Shao gritted his teeth and stomped his foot lightly: "Okay, then try, if it happens, you are all marquis of a thousand households, and you can choose the islands in the South China Sea." If it doesn't work......"

Ge Heng and Lu Shan stared at him in unison. Sun Shao met their gaze, looked at it for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "If you don't make it, you can't do it, anyway, I'm not afraid of them." ”

Ge Heng and Lu Shan couldn't help laughing, no one expected Sun Shao to say such a sentence in the end. They glanced at each other and bowed to Sun Shao: "Your Highness, the ministers are ready to go." ”

"Go ahead." Sun Shao waved his hand, and all the hesitation and worry disappeared without a trace in a moment, and the whole person looked confident. When Ge Lu and the others saw it, they couldn't help but increase their confidence again, gave another salute, got off the boat, and went straight to Guan Feng's ship, the Fengyi, to make the final preparations for the weapons at the bottom of the box.

Sun Shao turned around, looked at the Son of Heaven and the ministers on the deck of the Jue Room (the fourth floor of the ship) with a smile on his face, strode up, came to the Son of Heaven, and bowed down: "Your Majesty, everything is ready, please give your Majesty the order to attack." ”

The Son of Heaven's heart was full of happiness, although he knew that this water division could not be mastered by himself, but at least at this moment, this water division was the water division of the Han Dynasty, and he had to call the command. He stood up solemnly, took a command flag from the hand of Taiwei Zhang Zhao, and solemnly handed it to Sun Shao: "King Yue, order me to attack the Han Navy." ”

"Yui!" Sun Shao snorted, took the order flag and held it in his arms, saluted the Son of Heaven and the Taiwei Zhang Zhao in turn, and then strode to the railing, standing silent. The sailors and soldiers on both sides looked at it, and their blood boiled one by one, and Su Thick Leg on the boat on the left side of the leading building was the first to raise his arm and shout:

"Long live Your Majesty, long live King Yue!"

Immediately after, Cui Qian, who was the leader on the right, shouted not to be outdone:

"The Han army is mighty, and the sailor is mighty!"

The five thousand sailors immediately shouted in unison:

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live King Yue! ”

"The Han army is mighty! The sailor is mighty! ”

The roar was neat and powerful, like a human shout, and it was clearly the result of a long period of training. The Son of Heaven smiled when he heard this, no matter what, at this time, it was already a very gratifying thing for him to be able to put him in front of the Yue State Naval Division, and to be able to put the Han army that had already existed in name only.

"Long live Your Majesty!" Sun Shao turned to face the Son of Heaven, raised his arms, and shouted: "The Han army is mighty!" ”

Tai Lieutenant Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong, who had just arrived in the imperial history, hurriedly shouted, and the other entourages also shouted in unison, only Liu Bei, the king of Shu, Sun Quan, the king of Wu, and Cao Zhang, the new general of the chariot and cavalry, were a little stunned, they didn't expect Sun Shao to play this hand, hesitated for a moment, and had to drink everyone to salute the Son of Heaven, and shouted in unison:

"Long live Your Majesty, the Han army is mighty!"

The Son of Heaven is happy and looks forward to himself.

Sun Shao shouted twice, raised the order flag in his hand, and the five thousand sailors who were originally shouting in unison were suddenly silent, they quietly looked at the building boat, looked at Sun Shao, and looked at the battle flag in Sun Shao's hand.

Sun Shao waved the flag violently, and then pointed forward. The East China Sea Fleet in front of the left immediately erupted into a thunderous roar, and several warships guarding the building ship suddenly started and quickly rushed forward. Immediately after, the thick-legged boat of the East China Sea Governor Su followed the start, and the snow-white waves rolled out from the back of the boat, and the pointed bow ploughed a blue wave on the sea surface, and galloped forward. A moment later, Cui Qian's department of the West Sea Fleet, which was led on the right, also started, and then the South China Sea Fleet in the rear on the left, and only the Funan Fleet in the rear on the right side remained unmoved, quietly watching the three fleets gallop away.

The Son of Heaven hurriedly raised the clairvoyance in his hand and looked intently at the calm sea in the distance. Several ministers were silent, with different thoughts, straightened their clairvoyance, and watched King Yue's finale.

In a matter of moments, the East China Sea Fleet at the forefront approached the imaginary enemy, and with a sound of a drum, a dark cloud flew up from the ship, mixed with a few black dots in the middle, and in the blink of an eye, it flew a distance of two hundred paces, accurately hitting those imaginary enemies. As the water column rose into the sky, the outermost two ships were hit first, and the Son of Heaven clearly saw in the clairvoyance that an originally calm warship suddenly shook a little, and after a short pause, it suddenly unraveled and sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The East China Sea Fleet, which had taken the lead in approaching the imaginary enemy, had already approached the group of ships after firing several rounds of crossbow fire and thunderbolts, and instead of slowing down, they swept past the perimeter of the group at full speed.

Behind them, the West Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet came one after another, acting according to the law, ravaging these imaginary enemies one after another, the South China Sea Fleet had just rushed over, and the East China Sea Fleet, which had turned the corner, rushed up again, although they only had three building ships, a total of only twelve ships, but they cooperated tacitly, hesitated three wolves, surrounded a giant beast that was strong, but there was nothing to do, and each time they gnawed a large piece of meat. In the face of a smooth and gorgeous attack, in just a quarter of an hour, one hundred and ten ships were scattered, most of them sunk to the bottom of the sea, and only a few broken ships were left floating miserably on the surface of the sea, with tattered planks everywhere.

Seeing the three fleets "returning from a great victory", the Son of Heaven breathed a sigh of relief, put down his clairvoyance, shook his sore arm, and exclaimed: "The sailors of the Yue Kingdom are really sharp, and they cooperate tacitly, like an arm, okay." ”

"Your Majesty, this is the Great Han Sailor." Zhang Zhao reminded.

"Oh?" The Son of Heaven was stunned for a moment, and then smiled happily again: "Yes, it's my Han Sailor." Yesterday, I watched the foot riding drill, which has made my ambition suddenly born, and today I see the sailor proud, and my heart is even more majestic and majestic. ”

"The Han army is mighty! The sailor is mighty! The crowd was babbling about the situation.

"His Royal Highness King Yue, why doesn't your boat move?" Cao Zhang, who was not convinced, shouted loudly.

Sun Shao, who was full of smiles, shook his head and motioned to Cao Zhang to calm down: "The front is just an aperitif, and the back is a big dish, but I didn't expect those guys to be too happy and kill all the imaginary enemies, I am arranging for someone to replenish the ship, and I will invite you to watch a good show right away." ”

"I'll wait and see with Your Majesty." Cao Zhangyin said with a smile. However, although he tried his best to make himself look sinister, his face with thick eyebrows and big eyes did not look like a bad person.

"Don't worry, you will be satisfied."

"What, there's anything more powerful?" The Son of Heaven was taken aback, the smooth and sharp attack just now had opened his eyes, how could it be an aperitif, and the big dish had not yet been served?

"Your Majesty, please." Sun Shao said respectfully, he glanced back, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please look, the supplementary imaginary enemy is coming." ”

The Son of Heaven hurriedly raised his clairvoyance and looked into the distance, only to see more than a dozen building ships slowly approaching and stopping on the sea, but this time they did not stop together, but stopped one in the east and one in the west, and were divided into four places. The Son of Heaven was a little surprised, and was about to ask, but saw Sun Shao raise his arm, gesture to the Fengyi number on the right, and wave the command flag in his hand, then turned around and said, "Your Majesty, please look at the latest weapon of my Han Sailor." ”

The Son of Heaven didn't care about the soreness of his arm, and hurriedly turned Qianli to the Fengyi building ship on the right. I saw that a high pipe at the back of the Fengyi building ship suddenly spewed out a puff of black smoke, straight into the sky, and then the building ship began to accelerate at an incredible speed, a few points faster than the three building ships just now, in a short period of time, the building ship was like a galloping horse galloping away in the distance, and the churning waves ploughed a triangular water surface behind the boat.

"This ......" Tianzi was dumbfounded, when he saw the three building ships just now, he already felt very fast, he had always heard that Sun Shao's warship was amazingly fast, this time he finally saw it with his own eyes, and he was surprised, but he didn't expect this Fengyi to move together, and the original three building ships were dwarfed, and they were compared all of a sudden.

Not only was the Son of Heaven surprised, but others were also surprised, and the most surprised was Sun Quan, he put down the clairvoyance, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and hurriedly put the clairvoyance on his eyes, because of excessive force, the clairvoyance almost squeezed out his eyeballs. His mouth was open, and although he couldn't see his eyes, the shocked look was still clearly visible.

The building boat, which was originally talking and laughing, was suddenly so quiet that only exclamations and gasps remained, only Zhang Zhao was calm, although he did not squint, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth could not hide the pride in his heart. Compared with his pride, although Sun Shao was also very calm, the corners of his eyes twitched from time to time, he did not raise his clairvoyance, but his two hands held the railing tightly. If someone were standing next to him, they would be able to hear his heavy breathing.

He was very nervous.

After four years of uninterrupted research by Ge Heng and others, thirteen model machines were abolished, and the first batch of finalized steam engines was finally made. Whether this is the same as the original steam engine in history, Sun Shao doesn't know, he only knows that even now, the operation of these steam engines is unstable, and the longest normal working time is less than eleven hours, not even a day. But it is such an immature product, but it shows great power, four steam engines can keep the Fengyi sailing at a normal speed, eight can play the sprint speed when rowing with six hundred sailors, he put the first batch of sixteen products together, and use the propeller that has been improved many times, it can be said that the current Fengyi has reached the fastest speed that can be achieved by hull design.

The effect of this is obvious, the speed revealed by the Fengyi is the speed that a battleship, especially a warship as large as the Lou ship has never had, but the risk is also very great, it is difficult to guarantee how long it will run at full speed, maybe in the next moment, a certain steam engine will lie down, or even two or three, and in the most extreme case, it may even exceed half, in that case, this exercise has become a joke.

Even if sixteen units can give Sun Shao face and keep running normally, it is only half the success, and there is a more important link below.

Ge Xuan and Wei Boyang studied the earth-shaking thunder for three years.

The process of these two people researching gunpowder was very fast, and under the guidance of the prescription given by Sun Shao, it only took them one year to turn black powder into a mass-produced product, but in the process of producing artillery, they encountered great trouble. Sun Shao didn't know much about this, and the help he gave them was very limited, so they could only explore it themselves, and after countless experiments, they finally figured out a little way and made a bronze and brass cannon barrel, but the training was very complicated, and it was far from reaching the practical stage. It happened that Sun Shao sent Qin Lun from Funan to Zhuya, and Ge Heng and Ma Jun were greatly inspired after hearing the torsion ballista of the Great Qin people that Qin Lun said, and simply used the earth-shattering thunder that Ge Xuan and they had studied on the improved torsion ballista.

This attempt had an unexpected effect. The torsion ballista has the advantages of both a strong crossbow and a thunderbolt, and the range and accuracy are also high, and the range and accuracy are also guaranteed after using the greatly reduced weight of the earth-shattering thunder. However, the power of black powder is actually limited, if you use an iron shell, it will usually explode in half, and the lethality is limited, that is, the sound is terrifying. But who said it well, the power of the people is infinite, and the mechanics who are full of food and have nothing to do every day have come up with all kinds of ideas to increase the lethality, some stuff nails in it, some put poison in it, and some painstakingly grind out a few ditches in order to make the iron shell explode a few more pieces.

And today, in order to make the effect very majestic, the iron shell is filled with fire oil, Sun Shao held his breath and listened attentively, until the sound that could no longer be called a loud noise came, and a raging fire broke out on an imaginary enemy warship, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Listening to the explosions one after another, looking at the enemy ships burning violently one after another, the Son of Heaven and the others held their breath, until the Fengyi made a circle and returned to the ship of the Son of Heaven, there were bursts of violent explosions in the distance, and more than a dozen building ships were blown into pieces one after another in the explosion, flying all over the sky, with the billowing smoke, it was amazing.

Of course, these explosions were caused by the explosion of explosives installed on the ships in advance, and it was impossible to blow up these ships with just a dozen earth-shattering thunders and set them on fire.

But except for Sun Shao, no one on this ship knew the truth, what they saw was that the Fengyi rode out at an astonishing speed to single-handedly take on a dozen building ships, retreated before the enemy could react, and then turned the enemy into pieces with a loud bang.

In an instant, only Liu Bei remembered the scene when Guan Yu killed Yan Liang in the Baima Slope among the ten thousand troops, but he didn't expect that twenty years later, Guan Yu's daughter staged a more stylish scene. Liu Bei suddenly regretted it, he found that he had gone to Sun Shao again, and pushing Guan Yu to Luoyang as a trouble was tantamount to pushing away a powerful ally, otherwise, with the filial piety of Sun Shao and his wife to Guan Yu, how could Shu State go back with a little bit of this earth-shattering thunder.

Sun Shao, who had completely relaxed, stood on the side of the boat with a smile, watching Guan Feng, who was overjoyed, striding up with a war knife, and stretched out a very gentlemanly hand to lead Guan Feng to the Son of Heaven, and the husband and wife both saluted: "After the sailor exercise, please comment on Your Majesty." ”

"Huh? Yes! The Son of Heaven put down his clairvoyance, looked at the smoke billowing sky in the distance, and closed his mouth for a long time, only then did he feel that his arm was so sore that he couldn't lift it, and even his chin couldn't close it, he took a step forward, pulled Sun Shao impatiently, raised his hand with great effort, and pointed to the sea in the distance: "Sun ...... Sun Qing, what kind of weapon is that, so powerful? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, that's the earth-shattering thunder." Sun Shaoqiang couldn't help but smile proudly: "When this thing is powerful, it is like thunder in the sky, but Your Majesty is far away today, so it doesn't sound so big, next time you can get closer......"

"No, no, no......" The Son of Heaven shook his head again and again, and said with a wry smile: "It's not big?" You can hear it so far away, and if you get closer, won't you even deaf your ears? Shocking thunder, earth-shaking thunder, as its name suggests. ”

The Son of Heaven said, and suddenly felt a little strange, what is the name of this thing is not good, but it is called Earthquake Thunder, I am the Son of Heaven, he is Earthquake Thunder, isn't this impossible to get along with me? He subconsciously glanced at Sun Shao, and Sun Shao smiled harmlessly. When Tianzi thought about it, he felt that he might be a little allergic. Among the four kings, Sun Shao was the most loyal, and he shouldn't have this idea.

"By the way, why is Guan Qing's warship so fast? A few points faster than the other warships, similar to a galloping horse? The Son of Heaven asked with great interest: "Guan Qing, your father and daughter are both heroes." ”

"Your Majesty praises, but the concubines dare not be ashamed." Guan Feng blushed, took a step back shyly, and half-hid behind Sun Shao.

"Your Majesty, what is used in this ship is not manpower, but material resources." Sun Shao said with a smile: "This uses the power of steam, so the name of the minister is the steam engine." ”

"Steam?" The Son of Heaven thought for a moment and asked, "But it's the same as the steam when making steamed cakes?" ”

Sun Shao secretly praised himself, who said that the son of heaven is stupid and smart. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

The Son of Heaven was very happy, and said with a smile on his back: "Sun Qing, I have nothing to do in Luoyang, and I have also read a lot of articles from Zhuya Academy, who is that...... I have also read the article that water is heated and steamy, and the powerful steam in the steam, but I didn't expect that this insignificant steam could actually drive a ship. ”

"Your Majesty, there is a great way in heaven and earth, and the great road is in all things, Your Majesty is very wise, if you pay a little attention, you will definitely be able to discover more heavenly ways. The minister has heard two lines of poetry, and he dares to offer it to encourage His Majesty. ”

"Oh, what a poem, tell me about it." The Son of Heaven urged again and again with high interest.

"All things are self-satisfied, and the four seasons are happy with others."

The Son of Heaven sighed two sentences, and sighed: "Good poems, I don't know who wrote them, I didn't have a chance to see them, it's really a regret in my life." ”

"What do you hear, you wrote it yourself, right?" Cao Zhang squeezed in front of him, squeezed his eyes at Sun Shao, and then gave a salute to the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty doesn't know, His Royal Highness King Yue also wrote poems back then, and there are many good sentences in them, and my father and Wang Disciple Jian are full of praise." For example, what 'the stars hang down and the plains are wide, and the moon swells and the rivers flow', even a rough person like the minister knows it. In my opinion, these two sentences may also be the masterpieces of His Royal Highness King Yue, but he has occasional witty sentences, and he is busy with government affairs, so he has no time to make up for it, so he has to say that he heard it. ”

Sun Shao was speechless.

The Son of Heaven looked at Sun Shao, who was a little embarrassed, and then looked at Cao Zhang, who was clearly a little weak-hearted, and rushed to show favor to Sun Shao, smiled, turned to the ministers and smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, you look at the sailors of the Yue Kingdom...... No, how powerful is my Great Han Sailor? ”

"Your Majesty, with such a sailor guarding the sea frontier for Your Majesty, my Han will definitely be invincible in the world." Liu Bei, the king of Shu, hurriedly congratulated, and then arched his hand to Sun Shao: "Virtuous nephew, you are always unexpected." Compared to the sailors, our foot riding is simply not worth mentioning. ”
