Chapter 263: New Battleship
Kaifeng, the imperial city of the Great Song Dynasty, with a permanent population of more than 2 million, is the most prosperous city in the four countries on the east coast of the high sea.
Now the time is the beginning of June, and Tang Ling has been lying down for nearly three months, eating and drinking well every day at the Dasong headquarters of Lingwan Hotel, and the sisters take turns to take care of them, envying others.
But he wasn't happy!
Although the sea beasts were finally repelled, the Exocet fleet also tasted the first defeat since its formation, and the damage to the Exocet Lord alone exceeded thirty percent, and the rest of the ships were damaged to varying degrees, and they have been overhauled for three months.
Supposedly, it's not a bad thing to taste defeat at this time, but no one is happy to face failure.
"Brother, it's time to eat!"
"Okay, put it on the table for me!"
The mental trauma brought to Tang Ling by the big electric eel was not something that could be healed in just three months, so although he was able to move normally now, he still couldn't use his mental power, otherwise he would be greeted by the pain of life and death.
Even so, he couldn't stop Tang Ling, his mental power couldn't be used, he could still think, and he could draw. Although it was not as convenient as simulating mental power directly in the mental space, this method was also something Tang Ling had been accustomed to before, after all, he was still an ordinary earth game nerd at that time.
With her own man so attentive and focused, Tang Wan'er didn't say anything to dissuade her, not only because she knew that it would not have any effect, but also because she knew Tang Ling's unwillingness in her heart.
In the past few years, Tang Ling has been praised too high, and this time it was not objectively bad, but it really hit Tang Ling.
Tang Wan'er believes that her man can get the field back, as the man of the Tang family, as the heaven of the Tang family, he must also get the field back, and as a wife, what Tang Wan'er has to do is to support him behind his back and take care of him, at most... It's just to let him bully a little more, relax and relax...
"Ahh As if thinking of the embarrassing picture, the beauty put down the plate and ran away.
"Huh?" Looking at the shadow of his woman leaving in a hurry, Tang Ling raised his head, wondered for a moment, and returned to his own world again.
······
At the end of June, several design drawings were sent from Tang Ling's room to the first line of defense in the north through Tang Wan'er's hands, and finally to the hands of Zhou Tianbao, the head of logistics.
"Hurry up, I know that the little junior brother can't be idle, show us what new things he has made!" I don't know where the bigwigs got the news, not long after Zhou Tianbao got the blueprints, a group of people rushed into his office.
There are three kinds of design drawings sent by Tang Ling, one is bigger than the other, and everyone is amazed.
The first is modified from a submarine, but compared with conventional submarines, the appearance of this new type of submarine has changed greatly, from a cylindrical type to a pie type, and from the design drawings, its main part is like a flying saucer under the sea.
The highlight of this new type of submarine is that it has to install a total of four pairs of large pincers of chariot crabs or lobster soldiers, one pair of front and one on the left and right, and this novel design is equivalent to equipping the submarine with a bayonet, making the submarine's melee combat ability soar.
In addition to the surrounding area, hundreds of torpedo tubes and depth charge droppers are installed in the upper and lower directions, making it capable of attacking from any direction, powerful enough to explode.
"Install a set of Essence Stone control system in the crab claw, and use its original muscles, joints, and mental power residues to control it... How did my nephew grow in his brain? After reading the design drawings, Duanmu was shocked, she would never have imagined this kind of thing.
"Equip a submarine with sea beast pincers?" Qin Ji looked at the new submarine on the design drawing, stared at Zhou Tianbao with burning eyes, and said, "Minister Zhou, can you let me build this kind of warship?" ”
"Vice Dean Qin, in fact, that's what the young master explained!" In fact, among the bigwigs present, the only person who can be qualified for this first type of battleship is Qin Ji, so even if he doesn't volunteer, Zhou Tianbao will bring Tang Ling's words.
"Okay, guys, I'm one step ahead!" After receiving the design drawing, Qin Ji left in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to turn the battleship on the design into a real thing!
"Wow..." After Qin Ji left, everyone turned their attention to the second type of battleship, and after seeing what was on it, Jun San exclaimed.
This is a kind of warship with a dragon snapping turtle as the main body, which basically does not destroy its original appearance, but only hollows out the internal organs to build a cabin, and the most important thing is that there will be eight holes in the turtle shell on its back, and eight small cannons of 600 mm caliber will be installed.
And, to create such a battleship, Tang Ling's request was to use three dragon snapping turtles of the same level to frantically strengthen their defense, in addition to defense, insulation work is also the focus, it seems that Tang Ling was clicked once and left a little shadow.
"This kind of thing, even if it's a standard type, has to be close to the dreadnought, right?" Ying Zhong looked at the drawings and muttered.
"Yes, according to the young master's estimate, the standard type is level 40 of the quasi-dreadnought stage, so at most one formation can be created at the moment." Nodding, Zhou Tianbao confirmed Ying Zhong's guess.
"Regarding this second type of battleship, the young master would like to ask the two adults." As he spoke, Zhou Tianbao handed the drawings to Ying Zhong and Jun San.
After receiving the drawings, the two left excitedly, and they also wanted to start building a new warship immediately.
The remaining third type of battleship, Zhou Tianbao handed it directly to Duanmu.
The sea beast needed for this kind of battleship is a floating island hawksbill turtle, because the big electric eel is not easy to handle, Tang Ling failed to get a overlord-level sea beast for Duanmu, so he came up with this kind of battleship.
In terms of size alone, the Floating Island Tortoiseshell is definitely overlord-class, so as long as it is in Tang Ling's hands, it can become a battleship comparable to the overlord-class sea beast.
In Tang Ling's design, there will be a total of three types of such warships, standard, strengthened and special.
The special type is specially prepared for Duanmu, the floating island tortoiseshell is not only comparable in size to the overlord, but also weighs an ordinary overlord of the 2000 level, although the flexibility will be limited, but the design concept of the second type of battleship is transferred to it, in fact, it does not need to be very flexible.
In addition to the special type, the other two models are the design concept of "aircraft carrier" and "transport ship", giving full play to its "large" characteristics, whether it is used to provide take-off and landing platforms for the air force or as supply ships, or it can also be command ships, or even to provide a wider and more stable rest place for the fleet, it is a very good choice.
Therefore, in Tang Ling's vision, the first three warships to be built will become "aircraft carriers", "supply ships", and "command ships" for three different purposes.
