Lu Zhongli added the Admiralty and specially transferred Lu Rong to serve as the Minister of the Admiralty to manage naval affairs. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe city lord of Scorching Sun City is also served by Lu Yu's eldest son, Lu Yiheng, who is the first city-level chief official of the half-elves.

Basically, there will not be much change in Scorching Sun City, Lu Rong has already taken care of Scorching Sun City, even if Lu Yiheng develops the Stonetalon Mountain Range according to the development policy set by Lu Rong, it will be enough for him to use it for one or two thousand years.

Every year, the Stonetalon Mountains provide around a thousand bipedal wyvern mounts without affecting their own development. The bipedal wyvern is transferred to civilian use every twenty years of service, and after another twenty years, it is officially retired. After retiring, the bipedal wyvern will return to the Stonetalon Mountains to retire, and those who can raise offspring will raise offspring, and those who can't live a free life.

According to the cycle of reincarnation every forty years, there are always 40,000 two-legged wyverns that can be used in the Thunder Empire. These 40,000 pairs of dragons make the Thunder Empire's military and economy have efficient operation capabilities, and are an important guarantee for the Thunder Empire's strength.

Therefore, although the Stonetalon Mountains are barren, they are an indispensable place in the Thunder Empire, and even if you lose Ethresso, you can't lose it. There has always been a need for someone who can be trusted by Lu Zhongli, who was Lu Rong before, and now Lu Yiheng.

Lu Rong set up the Admiralty in the military port of Ethelsor, which was not close to each other, but was very close to each other, both outside the city of Ethelsor.

The military port has its own shipyard and is really studying warships. Although Lu Zhongli provided Lu Rong with ideas, Lu Rong still had to build the warships one by one before he could determine whether those warships could adapt to the world.

It can be determined that a warship needs to do several things, armor, speed, and firepower.

The armor is the protection ability of the warship itself, if the armor is too thin, it will be blown through by the wind, how can you fight? And the armor at the bottom is especially important, especially if the opponent is still a naga. I can't say when a Naga will burrow under the warship and make a hole in the warship.

Speed, this is an important condition for whether the warship can escape and pursue the enemy, if the speed is fast, it is definitely possible to attack and retreat.

Firepower, which is the means of attack of warships, currently the Thunder Empire can add firepower to warships with bows and arrows, magic, and bipedal dragon knights.

After repeated designs, Lu Rong identified three types of warships. A small scout ship, twelve meters long, more than two meters wide, with a draft of one meter deep, a small mana drive, and mana bottom armor. The maximum speed is 25 meters per second, and the average speed is 15 meters per second. Regular capacity for 8 people, up to 30 people.

Medium-sized frigate, fifty meters long, eleven meters wide, three and a half meters draft, medium mana drive, mana bottom, board armor. The maximum speed is 18 meters per second, the average speed is 12 meters per second, and it can carry eight ballistas, a magic tower, 120 combatants, and a maximum of 460 people.

Large load-bearing ship, one hundred and twenty meters long, thirty meters wide, twelve meters draft, large magic drive, magic bottom, broadside, deck armor. The maximum speed is 18 meters per second, the average speed is 10 meters per second, the conventional carrying is 36 ballistas, 6 magic towers, 130 bipedal dragon knights, 520 combatants, and a maximum of 3,600 people.

After the warship is built, it still needs to be manned, and the sea is not as good as on the land, and the bumps in the sea alone can make many people lose their combat effectiveness.

There is no way to do this, so you can only start training from scratch, but fortunately, there are many people in Ethelesso, and Lu Rong recruited a thousand people nearby, and then started training at sea.

These people are young people with a lot of potential. Before the men who went to Mogaure to recruit returned, these people were the guarantee that Lu Rong would sail out of the warship.

According to the establishment given by Lu Zhongli, it means three large carrier ships, fifteen medium-sized frigates, and fifty small reconnaissance ships. According to the minimum strength, 3,760 people are needed, and with the addition of military ports and spare personnel, at least 6,000 people are needed to maintain the normal operation of this Admiralty.

How to train the navy, Lu Rong didn't know, Lu Zhongli didn't know, even before he crossed. This thing is a military secret, and if a common man knows how to train the navy, the navy is not so valuable.

Everything has to be explored by Lu Rong himself, and the only thing that Lu Zhongli can guarantee is that everything is supplied in full, and money is given to money, and people are asked to give it.

Fortunately, there was no war in the early stage of the formation of the navy, and Naga seemed to have disappeared, allowing Lu Rong to easily explore training. After several generations of hard work, the navy of the Thunder Empire was finally built.

Lu Zhongli personally watched the actual combat exercise and expressed his satisfaction with the combat effectiveness of the navy. However, at the same time, he also said that the current navy lacks actual combat, and a navy that has not undergone actual combat is not a strong navy.

Lu Rong began to send the scout ship out to find Naga's traces and see if he could fight.

After searching for a few months, the reconnaissance ship really found the existence of Naga. Naga occupies an island in the south, and there is a huge island near this island, and Naga seems to want to attack this large island.

But there is a huge creature on the Big Island, almost as tall as a dragon, and it looks like a dragon. But it has two heads, one can spray acid, the other can spray thunder, and when the reconnaissance ship landed on the big island to reconnoitre, it lost two people for a while.

"How many naga are there on the island?" Lu Rong asked with a deep groan.

"Many, at least tens of thousands." Karen Akao, the minotaur in charge of the reconnaissance, said with certainty.

Karen Akao is a descendant of Fili Akao, who climbed the lighthouse when Naga stole lamp oil, and is the seventh grandson of Filip and the sixth grandson of Moro Akao.

Cullen, a 24-year-old leader in the navy, is very good at broadside warfare, and is proficient in naval and land warfare, and graduated from the Department of War of the Royal Academy with a major in strategy and tactics.

It can be said that this is an all-rounder who can take charge on his own, but because of his lack of merit, he has only joined the navy for three years and cannot command the fleet. So now he is the leader of the second reconnaissance formation, and he has six reconnaissance ships under his command.

Lu Rong calculated the strength of the enemy and the enemy, the navy now has two battle formations, each of which has a large carrier ship, four frigates and eight reconnaissance ships. The number of combatants is more than 2,500, and the number of two reconnaissance formations is almost 2,800.

Naga has at least 10,000 men, which is four times that of our army, and even if the bonus of going to warships is doubled, it is almost twice that of our army. Moreover, our army is still on an expedition, and it is obviously at a disadvantage, and it seems that reinforcements are needed.

Lu Rong quickly calculated the advantages of friend and foe, and then said to Karen: "Karen, I need you to go to the trench, to find the dragon, we need their help, by the way, inform the water elemental lord Noxain, he should go out for activities."

"Understood, Your Highness." (To be continued.) )
