Gray Sky, the boss of the Sky Chamber of Commerce, one of the five major chambers of commerce in Jicheng, broke up with a lonely negotiation and broke up unhappily, because Gray Sky wanted to obtain 51% of the equity of Bohai Shipyard through capital injection, and used this as a condition to aid Bohai Shipyard. Lonely's reluctance to accept such a high asking price is an unbearable condition for his brothers at the Bohai Shipyard, who will lose control of the Bohai Shipyard and become vassals of others.

Lonely returned to Bohai City with more than a dozen of his henchmen, and continued to visit the city's player forces in an effort to raise funds.

The situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the Bohai Shipyard, and the rogue players have begun to refuse to carry out attacks because they have not been paid enough, and the number of attacks on Zhoushui ships is decreasing, and they may stop completely at any time - once they stop completely, it will mean the end of the direct confrontation between the two shipyards, and the Bohai Shipyard will be completely defeated in this war of attrition. Lonely and unable to endure the financial pressure that was about to dry up, he continued to throw money into it.

In addition, the complaints of many players at the bottom of the Bohai Shipyard are also getting louder and louder, only spending and no income, which has affected their own development.

But loneliness did not give up hope completely. He even had to bow his head and send an envoy to the Zhoushui shipyard to ask for an end to the confrontation and a peaceful negotiation to resolve the conflict - although the other side did not have much hope of agreeing, it was better than no hope.

Zhoushui Walled City, lakeside.

More than 20 craftsmen who studied shipbuilding technology, after nearly 10 days of supplementing their knowledge of elementary mathematics and physics at the Zhoushui Academy, returned to the shipbuilding base again to study the manufacturing technology of sailing ships. After five days of research. They finally built a dhow and a single sail that was easy to maneuver and could sail on the lake, based on the heavy cabin and the newly designed squad.

With the help of the wind, the dhow can sail smoothly and quickly from the easternmost point of the lake to the westernmost point, saving the energy of NPC sailors for paddling, and making it more efficient. With the same sailors, the degree of sailing ships is far greater than that of heavy cabin ships.

Heavy cabin ships: 1 captain, 50 sailors. Load capacity: 30,000 catties. Voyage: 15 knots.

Sailing time: 10 hours, stopped when the sailor runs out of stamina.

Light dhow: 1 captain. 30~50 sailors. Load capacity: 30,000 catties. Boat:

knots. Sailing time: Sailing without time limit, when the wind stops. Manpower can be used instead.

Usage: Freight. Design unit: Zhoushui University - Scientific Research Institute - Ship Technology Research Group. Manufacturing unit: Zhoushui Shipyard.

Shipyard fabrication: light boats/5 hours, heavy boats/8 hours, heavy ships/10 hours, light dhows\12 hours.

After the first sailboat was successfully built, the fortune of the young bull was ecstatic. Dozens of Zhoushui Alliance Earth Brains such as Qin Xiaobai, Sheep, Nameless, and Chengwang were hurriedly invited to watch the first secret sea trial.

The sailboat sailed smoothly on the lake for a round trip.

There was a burst of enthusiastic cheers from the crowd watching the site on the shore. Although it is said to be a secret trial, but I don't know how to leak the wind, or still be sharp-eyed players to see the shadow of the sailboat, the news of the successful research of the sailboat quickly spread throughout the entire Zhoushui Walled City, countless players from the city flocked to the Zhoushui Lake to watch, and the cheers almost never stopped.

Qin Xiaobai and the others congratulated the wealthy green cow one after another.

The young bull was speechless with excitement. The research on sailing ships was successful. At least it shows that the shipyard he is in charge of is not consuming the resources of the Zhoushui Alliance in vain, but has made achievements. During this time, the Zhoushui Alliance lost a lot of money for the shipyard. The money has to be rewarded.

Qin Xiaobai was very happy about the successful development of the sailboat, "With the sailboat, our ship will no longer be able to sail only in inland rivers. It is completely possible to sail in the Bohai Bay with the help of the wind, sail 480 miles in one day and one night, and go directly to the Qi country on the Shandong Peninsula to carry out long-distance trade. The Fortune Misty Green Bull smiled: "Boss, are you planning to start trade between vassal states now?" ”

"Yes, the time is ripe!"

Qin Xiaobai nodded, summoned the leaders of the Zhoushui Alliance, returned to the conference hall of the Zhoushui Academy, and held a formal alliance meeting. This time it was he who presided over the meeting himself. The entire conference hall was filled with smiles. As many as nearly 200 representatives of players from various industries attended the meeting.

Qin Xiaobai glanced at the players in the hall and said in an unquestionable tone: "The successful development of the light dhow represents a major breakthrough in our technical level in shipping, and it is no longer limited to manpower. Now I have an important proposal to extend our sphere of influence directly to the mouth of the Ji River in the Bohai Bay.

In this place, build a seaside base! We used this coastal base to travel to the Yellow River Valley, as well as Qi, Wei, Chu and other places, to carry out trade across the princes, and no longer limited to a narrow place. In the past, heavy cabin ships could sail up to 150 miles a day, but now we have sailing boats that sail 480 miles a day, three times as long as they can accomplish such a task. ”

Qin Xiaobai's proposal immediately caused shock, excitement and excitement among hundreds of players in the entire hall.

Sheep, Nameless, Becoming a King, Blood Killing, Thousands of Miles Without Staying, God King and others all showed shocked expressions, Xiaobai's hand was too big, and he directly picked out the restrictions on the complex trade of 6 places within a radius of hundreds of miles from Yandi, and went directly to a place thousands of miles away from the waterway. Xiaobai regards the shipyard as so important, and does not hesitate to spend a lot of money and money, most of which is also because of this reason.

The leaders have expressed their positions.

The sheep expressed their support unreservedly.

Nameless smiled: "I agree with the boss's idea to build an important base near the sea, so that our influence will expand tenfold or even a hundred times faster." As a result, Bohai Shipyard has been completely left behind by us and cannot compete with us. ”

Cheng Wang thought about it for a moment and said, "I agree with this idea. However, if we set up a base near the sea, it will be far away from our base around the water walled city, and there will be no sufficient security guarantee. Unless it's a military base, it's easy to be vandalized by an adversary. ”

Bloody Kill smiled: "I think we can simply build a military base, where to transfer some of our troops." Configure the 6th Army and Navy at the same time, and see who dares to move our coastal base when the time comes! ”

Thousands of miles do not stay in contemplation. The mouth of the Ji River to the Bohai Sea is about the area of Tanggukou in Tianjin, and this place is a good place to establish a naval base. As long as this outlet is controlled, it is equivalent to controlling the outlet to the sea in the hinterland of the entire Yan Kingdom. directly choked the throat of the entire hinterland of Yan Kingdom. As for the hundreds of thousands of players in Jicheng, they were also trapped in fishing nets.

Thousands of miles without staying a little shocked Qin Xiaobai's precise and ferocious shot, and said: "I agree with Boss Xiaobai's resolution, if you can successfully build a powerful sea and 6 military bases here, the strategic value is great." On this basis, there will be security in the development of business and trade exchanges. ”

The God King also expressed his position and said with a smile: "This is a plan that is enough to affect the entire Yan Kingdom. However, this outlet to the sea is relatively close to Bohai City, and it is farther away from our Zhoushui Walled City. It is necessary to have enough troops, and try to build the base all at once so as not to be damaged in the middle of the attack. ”

The opinions of all the main leaders were generally unanimous, and they all agreed with Qin Xiaobai's coastal base plan. The rest of the player delegates were also largely supportive, with few worrying about the success of the plan.

Qin Xiaobai nodded, seeing that it was almost over, all members voted on whether to support this coastal base plan. In the end, 98% of the council representatives voted in favor, with a few abstaining and no objections. The entire parliamentary representatives of the Zhoushui Alliance have achieved a high degree of unanimity on this plan.

Qin Xiaobai announced that the "Linhai Base Plan" was approved by the Alliance Council and was listed as the highest-level plan of the Zhoushui Alliance, officially entering the implementation stage.

The details of the implementation of this plan are subject to secrecy procedures, and in order to avoid leakage, ordinary delegates to the coalition meeting have no right to intervene. With the exception of implementation, only the Speaker and the three Deputy Speakers are entitled to know the full details. All the details will be disclosed to all delegates after the entire plan is completed.

The centerpiece of the whole plan is the sailboat.

Yes, without a sailboat, there would be no "coastal base plan", and the cabin ship could not take on such a heavy task. At present, Zhoushui Shipyard has only developed one type of light dhow, and there is only one.

Qin Xiaobai's first step was to expand the number of shipyards and shipbuilders, doubling the production capacity of sailboats and greatly expanding. In addition, research funds continue to be invested in the study of medium-sized dhows, heavy dhows, and military war sailboats with a larger carrying capacity. Only by studying the war sailing ships can we protect the naval bases -- and this work will continue to be done by the young people who have lost their money.

In the second step, a large number of troops of the 6th Army were dispatched to the mouth of the Jihe River in the Bohai Sea, to survey the terrain and build the 6th and Haihai military bases.

First of all, the 6th Army base must ensure that this base is foolproof on the 6th ground before continuing to build a naval base. If the safety of the 6 ground cannot be guaranteed, then this coastal base can easily be destroyed.
