ACT247: Armed Cooperation

The Starry Sky Temple Fair, which lasted only three days, came to an end in the blink of an eye. This temple fair was praised as "the best ever" by the rich people who felt feasted their eyes because of the strong "joining" of the AKY boat group, but there were also some smart people who saw the disagreement between AKY and the committee, and thought that this was the strongest gunpowder session.

But no matter what, the guests are the ones who have to leave sooner or later. The battle of the locals is, at most, a little curious for these rich people. Whether or not they have bought the treasures they want, they will leave this notorious chaotic land as soon as the time comes. And their flash, the false peace between the Committee and AKY, will also come to an end.

After some internal deliberations, the committee finally decided to cooperate with Zhao Jian to fight against AKY, who actually put the threat above his head. However, they still need a certain amount of preparation time before they meet each other, so the Luo family first pretended to agree to Alex's proposal, so as to delay some time.

Alex was full of promises, but he proposed to take Luo Shengnan back first, Luo Hu immediately refused, and told the other party that their Luo family has a lot of particulars about marrying daughters!

First of all, this wedding must be Tang style, and the day of worship must also choose an "auspicious day of the zodiac". They have already found a reliable fortune teller to calculate this, and the beginning of the next month (May) is a good day. In addition, he Alex also needs to go back to prepare the bride price of the "Eight Great Things", and he also has to fast for a week before the wedding, and he is not allowed to be close to women during this period. If he disobeys Alex in these messy explanations, he will incur disaster because of his disrespect to the ancestors of the Luo family.

After patiently listening to this head-wrenching request, Alex resisted the urge to cut people and asked Luo Hu, when will he see his bride?

So Luo Hu replied slowly.

"On the day of the chapel, you can see your bride after you have finished jumping the brazier and serving tea according to the rules!"

"I ...... I'll go back and get ready, you. Everyone. Wait. Make move! ”

Gritting his teeth, he squeezed the last few words out of his teeth. Alex got up and left Luo's house. Not long after he left, Zhao Jian walked out from behind the screen in the living room and said to Luo Hu with a smile.

"I said, old man, you are too lacking in virtue, right? Isn't that what a bride is supposed to do when jumping over a brazier? ”

"Cut! How can foreign devils understand this? ”

According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, Zhao Jian has made a bloody alliance with the five ship owners of the committee in front of Guan Erye's shrine, and the two sides have officially become allies. And Zhao also kept his promise, and the day after the AKY group withdrew from the area, he drove the freighter full of weapons.

When the five ship owners saw the rows of brand-new naval guns and the mountains of shell boxes in the cargo hold of the Hydrangea, their jaws were almost closed!

"My God! Boss Zhao, where did you get so many big guys? That's almost enough to arm a fleet, right!? ”

In the face of these high-quality heavy weapons, Luo Quan, the leader of the Fire Crane Boat Regiment, couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart. Running around in the arms room. Zhao Jian didn't laugh at his dirty bun-like behavior, and explained to him with a smile the armed model of the "regular navy".

"If it is according to the armed standards of the regular army, not counting the four 12-inch guns, the firepower level here is only 2 heavy cruisers and 10~15 destroyers, which is almost equivalent to the navy of a small third-rate country. But if you change the navy of a first-class big country, people can lose more than this in a small battle. ”

"Good boy! No wonder the ancestral precepts set up by the old ancestor before his death told us not to provoke the officials and soldiers. If this really them off, it won't take a minute to destroy us!? ”

"Sounds good. Boss Zhao, you seem to know a lot about the official army? ”

Hearing Zhao Jian talk about the regular army, Luo Shengnan's eyes flashed, and he asked seemingly inadvertently. Zhao Jian naturally knew that this was the other party testing himself. At present, among the five ship owners, Luo Shengnan is still suspicious of him, so Zhao Jian said calmly.

"Not only do I know about them, but I also have a certain relationship with them. Otherwise, how could you get such a heavy weapon? It's hard to do this if there's no one up there! ”

"Say so. Do you know a lot of big officials? ”

"Of course! You must know that the current commander-in-chief of the Northern Fleet is Zheng Tianhe, who is higher than ordinary generals, and I can talk and laugh with him! ”

With this batch of heavy weapons supported by Zhao Jian, the courage of the committee side suddenly strengthened a lot! Each of the five ship groups selected 25 clippers with relatively good hulls to carry these naval guns, and these "thick and hard" ships given by Zhao also underwent a certain amount of transformation and simplification in order to facilitate installation.

The smaller 127mm and 135mm are simpler, they don't have bomb silos inserted into the hull, they just need to be firmly fastened to the deck. The large 200mm and 305mm are not available for manual filling, so they still have a full packing system, but they have also been simplified without sacrificing reliability.

It is worth mentioning that Zhao Jian made a batch of hard egg-shaped turrets for these naval guns, which at first glance looked a bit like the turret of the Type 59 tank of the Celestial Dynasty in another time and space, but it became much larger, and it was also frantically equipped with a 12-inch "eagle ♂ owl"!

"What a pity! There are no five pairs of weight-bearing wheels where the soul is, otherwise this battle will be won properly! ”

"Young master, you're saying something that people don't understand again!"

Standing on his own Hydrangea, Zhao Jian, accompanied by Hongling, monitored the pile of "round heads" that were being renovated below, and his maintenance personnel were providing technical guidance to the mechanics of the ship. And in order not to be noticed by AKY when they transformed these "warships", the committee provided Zhao Jian with a magical hidden place.

The vegetation in the Shattered Star Sector is usually ferocious in size due to its gravity-free growth. The most common plant here is a giant vine that grows on an asteroid, which is huge and has no growth limit, and at the same time has super vitality and fecundity, and you can often see dozens of asteroids tied together by a giant vine. In some areas, patches of giant vines will also form a "cosmic tree sea" that stretches for thousands of miles.

Back then, the ancestors of the Luo family accidentally found a huge "cavity" in the middle of a sea of trees, and used it as a hiding place, and now it is used by Zhao Jian and them as a transformation workshop. As far as the eye can see, there is a flickering light of welding everywhere.

"Hongling, what is the current progress of the project?"

"65% of the total has been completed, and it is expected to be completed within a week, so there is still plenty of time."

After Hongling finished speaking, he handed the progress sheet he had sorted out to Zhao Jian, and the other party took the form, took her into his arms, and asked for details while secretly rubbing oil. Zhao Jian likes to see the little maid's pretty face flushed very much, and she pretends to be calm, which is simply unstoppable. But at this moment, there were suddenly a few coughs next to the two, reminding the two of them to pay attention to the impact, but Zhao Jian still went his own way and said without raising his head. (To be continued......)

PS: It's not very obvious that a little bit of death...... Should!
