As for the formation of the test force, Lin Jue can only inform Bi Fang of his needs, and how to form it specifically, this is his business.

Finally solved the problem of the line infantry team, and he was idle for the time being.

However, in order to form a line infantry unit, there is another problem in front of us, that is, muskets, the muskets in this world are basically arquebuses, not to mention the trouble of loading, and even the salvo of line up to shoot is difficult to do. For the current Lin Jue, the arquebus is just barely usable. It is no wonder that everyone says that it is better to engage in musket troops than to engage in bow and arrow troops, because the advantages of muskets in this world have not yet been discovered.

If the creation of a line infantry unit is to be ensured, the requirements for weapons naturally need to be increased, either revolver muskets or flintlock muskets, and arquebuses cannot continue to be used.

"Maybe you can go to Jiang Quan and see if he knows the principle of the revolver and flintlock pistol. ”

A few days ago, there was something to do, and Lin Jue had been busy, but there was nothing out of the ordinary. But today, suddenly in his free time, he finally realized that something seemed to be wrong.

"By the way, Phenice, I haven't seen her since the last time I visited her room. ”

Lin Jue turned around, looked at Lin Yue, and asked, "Have you seen the little phoenix recently?"

Lin Yue shook his head and said, "No." ”

"It's strange, she's not usually so quiet, isn't she?" Lin Jue frowned.

After a moment of silence, Lin Jue said: "Yue'er, you don't have to follow me today, anyway, I don't have anything to do now, I'll go to the dock later, you go to the little phoenix and chat with her." ”

"Good. ”

Watching Lin Yue leave the office, Lin Jue sighed softly.

"Blame me, let her go to such a far place, go for so long and come back, I should have apologized to her, alas, let Yue'er talk to her first, I'll go to her later." ”

Lin Jue wrapped his coat tightly, left the Governor's Palace, and walked towards the dock.

Outside the Governor's Palace, the big tree that has grown for more than a month is extremely eye-catching, because it is too tall, and now the height has reached fifty meters high.

It is like Phoenix, it is thriving, the dense canopy is covered with snow and ice, but the branches are bare, without a single leaf.

Lin Jue just glanced at it, then crossed this place and continued to walk towards the dock. How this big tree grows, the whole Phoenix City estimates that he knows best, because his office is facing this towering tree. He watched it grow little by little every day, and when he thought about it, although he had a huge sense of accomplishment, he didn't have much interest in it because he saw it too much.

The area of Phoenix City is not large, and the Governor's Palace is also not far from the location of the docks, but in about ten minutes, he has arrived here.

Aside from the bunch of small ships that had to sit quietly in the harbor due to the ice floes, the only thing that stood out was probably the tall dockyard on the edge of the coast.

In the dock, a behemoth, the future flagship of the Orlant Navy, has begun to take shape, Lin Jue took a closer look, not only the laying of the keel, but even the construction of the main hull, has been completed more than half, it seems that under the supervision of Jiang Quan, the speed of the construction of this ship is still very considerable.

Although there was no business at the docks under the blockade of the ice floe, except for the shipbuilders still wandering around, the whole dock was left empty, but even so, the head of the dock still patrolled the area.

It was precisely because the dock was empty that the person in charge saw Lin Jue wandering around at a glance, for this governor, maybe there were not many people who didn't know him, and he naturally couldn't be one of those few.

So he hurriedly greeted him: "Your Excellency, is there anything you need help with?"

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Are you still patrolling on such a cold day?"

The person in charge looked a little humble and said with a smile: "After all, the dock is also a gateway to Phoenix, so you can't be careless." ”

Looking at his frozen red palms and cheeks, Lin Jue patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's hard work, let's rest and rest first after the patrol, your body is important." ”

The person in charge was a little flattered, after all, he was only a member of the lowest level of society in the Orlante Kingdom, and he was lucky to get the job of the dock leader, and he was excited to get the condolences of Lin Jue, who was known as the king's right-hand man.

For the condolences of the person in charge, Lin Jue just relied on the rules of conduct on the earth, which was a subconscious move, but he didn't pay attention to these details, his attention was attracted by the sea. He glanced at the sea covered by a large number of ice floes, and shook his head helplessly, it seemed that it was impossible to leave Phoenix City in winter, it was simply wishful thinking.

"By the way, do you know where Sir Jiang is?" Lin Jue asked.

The person in charge pointed to the south side of the pier, where there was a house made entirely of brick and stone, and he said, "Sir Jiang has been going there every day these days. ”

Under the guidance of the person in charge, Lin Jue soon came to the outside of the masonry house.

Different from the cold feeling of the entire Phoenix City, outside this brick and stone house, Lin Jue actually felt a sultry breath hitting his face. It seems that the temperature in this room is extremely high.

Here, he could still hear sounds coming from inside the house, what seemed to be the sound of steel striking hard objects.

Lin Jue pushed open the door and walked in.

He glanced inside the room, and the whole room was like a blacksmith's workshop, with countless iron tools, a huge furnace, and a raging flame, filling the entire field of vision. Inside the house, Jiang Quan, two dwarven craftsmen who had never seen before, and Gerhiya, a total of four people in this small workshop, they were chattering about something.

However, Lin Jue didn't pay attention to them, his eyes were attracted by a strange machine on the table.

"Steam engine?" Lin Jue's eyes glowed and he exclaimed.

Everyone in the room obviously also discovered Lin Jue's existence, and instantly quieted down. Gerthia jumped up and down in front of Lin Jue and said with a smile: "What, did the Governor personally come to inspect the work?"

Lin Jue shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't dare to do this, I'm just wandering around idle." ”

After finishing speaking, Lin Jue's eyes turned to the steam engine on the table again, although it was only a half-finished product, only a rough prototype, but it still made him excited.

Jiang Quan glanced at him and said, "Don't look at it, it's just a half-finished product." ”

Lin Jue asked, "When will this machine be completed?"

Jiang Quan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who knows? ”

"Speaking of which, you didn't come here all of a sudden just to see if we were lazy, right?" Jiang Quanhu wondered.

"Of course not, I'm here for you. Lin Jue said as he glanced at everyone.

Jiang Quan immediately understood what Lin Jue meant, followed him out of the door, and came outside the house.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Jiang Quan asked.

"Can you make flintlock pistols, or revolver muskets?"

Hearing this, Jiang Quan was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Jue's fiery gaze, seemed to see through his thoughts, turned his head and left directly, and said as he walked: "Why don't you die? You treat me as Doraemon? No, I won't be killed, don't bother me." ”
