Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Reckless Wave

The smooth underwater lines of the arc, and their own 'large wooden river boat with keel', are definitely not a product of the times. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"There's no way, let's keep the big ones for admiration, and the small ones will be dismantled first, let me figure out what to do with iron parts such as nails. ”

The world's boats are naturally also European style - of course, this is only the opinion of Niu Ida, a turtle, compared with traditional Chinese wooden boats, most of the world's boats are very similar.

Before Niu Ida crossed, he also sat on a wooden boat with a length of more than five meters, a pure Chinese style, a square-headed and square-headed inland river model.

The feeling is that the most important thing for these small boats is the outer wall planks such as the boat gang and the bottom, and the internal frame only serves to strengthen and maintain the shape, and the structure is relatively simple - even the bow and stern are square, but with a little curvature.

But the local boat, the design idea is completely different.

First of all, there is a sturdy keel, which extends down to the bottom of the ship, like a knife. The common Chinese ships are mostly flat-bottomed, and there is no keel (Ushiida has never seen the actual bird boat Fufune, so there is a misunderstanding about this).

Then there were the very complex ribs, dense like the ribs of a fish, and the larger the ship, the denser it became, and the ribs almost blocked half of the side of the ship.

In traditional Chinese ships, there are many fewer ribs, and small boats are only three or five lanes, and large ships only maintain a very low limit.

It should not be enough to rely on the keel to wear these dense ribs, these boats generally have auxiliary wooden strips, from the bow to the stern, the ribs of the ship are connected again, just depending on the size of the hull, the number of these auxiliary keels is more or less.

Then there is the baffle on the outside of the ship's ribs, which is where the ship comes into direct contact with the seawater.

These ships not only used pegs of special shapes, nailed the ribs to the keel, but also strung the planks vertically with wooden bolts, presumably to strengthen the structure.

However, relatively speaking, their planks are much thinner than those of Chinese boats, and Chinese boats use a kind of curved nail, which seems to be called climbing head nails, which Ushiida has seen others use to repair small wooden boats in parks.

With such a big difference in the hull alone, the sail gear is even more unthinkable.

The overall feeling is that compared with Chinese-style wooden boats, the local boat craftsmanship is very complicated, the cost is too high, and the degree of sturdiness does not feel much advantage. But the sailing performance seems to be better, at the very least, the curve of the hull with the pointed head and tail is really beautiful, and the speed and agility should be strong.

At present, the ships that can be brought to the cottage have local goods, and Niu Ida has no choice. He could only take a kobold to watch carefully when he was dismantling the ship, and learned a little about the construction technology of the locals.

The devil is in the details!

We have discovered a lot of things that we don't usually notice - for example, when these boats are nailed, many places are nailed left and right, and the cracks of the boat board are also filled with hemp silk and oil mud, and the nails alone have several specifications and shapes.

When the dog heads were tossing around the sunken ship, many locals also saw it.

The old captain Hu Ge came over to watch for a while, and couldn't help but comment on the two-masted ship: this ship is a little weird, and the practice of the boat gang is not a common local craft, it should be converted from a foreign merchant ship.

The other two dhow fishing boats, he commented, could be used for both fishing and offshore transportation, and daring veterans even dared to take them across the ocean. One of them is produced by a shipyard in a neighboring country, where the price is cheaper, but the timber is slightly worse than in the local area.

But no matter more, he won't say anything, in the local area, the reputation of the kobold still needs to be managed, the survivors are still on guard, and Ushiida has no good way.

This time the kotou expedition was originally only more than 800 people, but now it has increased to 1,100 one after another.

When he went out, he brought with him less than three hundred craftsmen, most of whom were carpenters, and only a dozen blacksmiths.

Niu Ida thought about it, shipbuilding lacks tools, and there is a shortage of ship nails of various specifications.

I can only go back to the nest once by myself, make enough iron parts to be made in one go, and then bring them back.

Leave these dog heads here to toss, anyway, the situation is stable now, and there will be no accident in the short term.

First of all, the work was assigned: let more than 200 dog heads go to farming, more than 400 dog heads row to the swamp to continue to get food, and the remaining 500 or so are all tossed up for shipbuilding.

Among them, half of the people are divided to cut down trees, and wood is in high demand here.

The rest of the part is going to build a simple wharf, anyway, it's just a simple wooden plank road, as long as you stick to it for a year.

In the end, the most skilled carpenters and helpers remained, and their job was to imitate the structure of the boats, to make as many wooden pieces as they could.

After eating and drinking, he picked out a batch of various metal components from the shipbreaking, and then threw them into the space bag, and then went on the road alone and began to fly towards the thousand caves and hills in the south.

Many metal products can only be produced in the Thousand Caves and Hills, and Tesfir uses teleportation to inform himself that there is a new situation over there.

Thousands of caves and hills, a manpower crisis broke out.

Xu Ping'an was counting the number of dog heads with his fingers:

Brother Long led the team, about 250 people went out to do odd jobs, looking for food, collecting wood and charcoal, and coming back every once in a while to help make iron, and the feeding, discharging, and turning of the blast furnace were all hard work.

There are about 300 professional blacksmiths, and they have to divide half of their manpower, taking turns to go out to collect ore and burn charcoal, for kobolds, blacksmith miners are not separated, so that these guys can better understand the characteristics of ore. This is the most high-end skilled worker at present, and he usually takes turns to take classes to strengthen his knowledge.

The textile industry 70 is mainly made of rope and bowstring.

The carpenter and the bowsmith were only 80 together, and they mainly made iron tire bows, and they could have made some wheels, carts, barrels, etc., but because they were taken away a lot by Ushiida, the output dropped greatly, and these had to take turns in class.

There are a total of 200 material transport teams and patrol teams.

There are 150 cannons to build by themselves, mainly to try out a variety of artillery configurations, which is quite labor-intensive.

There are more than 100 nitrate field projects in Tesfield, and there is a lot of civil construction in the early stage of this project, and it should be much better to be on track in the future.

Guan Renxiu's chemical industry has 50 people, and I haven't seen any results yet.

In other words, every kobold is busy, and not a single rich one!

At this time, the Brave Hill made a big move, not only attacking a bullshit castle by himself, but also asking the kobold to assist in attacking the other two strongholds next to him......

The other party's reasons are very good, the conditions are quite exciting, and the consequences of refusing are absolutely tragic......

It's just the knot of this pit daddy now!

Xu Ping'an snapped his fingers and counted, and there were not many idle dog heads who could go out to fight!

Well, if the various departments get together, they can still squeeze out hundreds of combat dog heads, but there are only one thousand and two dog heads in total, how many can be made?

Even if you squeeze out hundreds of dog-headed regular troops, go out hundreds of kilometers in the winter, fight fortified castles, and fight two at the same time, the logistics rely on human allies, and the enemies are all elite one by one, and you are drunk when you think about it......

I choose death!(╯°Д°)╯┴┴

Before Xu Anping went crazy, Niu Jingtian could be regarded as rushing back, and several traversers rarely got together.

Hearing these shitty things, the most angry person turned out to be Niu Ida: "No! Who do these bastards think they are? The old man has thousands of tigers, well-armed, has never tasted defeat in a hundred battles, and there are countless demons and demons! When will it be the turn of those dicks to drink!"

The Great Khan: "Who are you talking about, how does it sound like a catastrophe of the undead!"

The more Niu Jingtian thought about it, the more unhappy he became, and the little fat claw waved: "Brother Long, count the number of dog heads, everyone copy the guys and prepare to go! If you are crooked, you will be angry with these grandsons! I remember that they usually leave the grain in the rear, right? Cut, fight with the old man!"

Brother Long: "Captain, you are so handsome! Living so big, I admire you the most, and this matter is left to me!"

He turned around and went to greet his dog friends.

Everyone was shocked! How did you directly enter the Hong Kong film mode?

Xu Ping'an also lost his temper at this time, and hurriedly pulled Niu Jingtian to persuade him: "Calling and drinking or something, how can it be so exaggerated, besides, we have saved a lot of food these days, it's a big deal to do it alone." They also said that if they agreed, they could pay us two months' food......"

"Just two months of food! This little thing wants me to jump into the fire pit, it's really beautiful!Wait, is it really two months of food for nothing? Don't you want money, right? Kuku Kuku~~ It's really a little family, it's only two months of food...... Tell them that the food is less than three months, don't talk about it, Kuku Kuku~~ Also, ah, do you have a map? Where are those two castles, why do you want me to investigate...... Kuku Kuku~~"

And then the thing flew away......

Xu Anping: me! I can't say hello before you change your face!

Guan Renxiu smirked and wiped his sweat: "Hehe, what happened just a few minutes? I seem to have lost my memory for a few minutes? Hehe, it must be that I thought too much......"

Tesfil also smirked together: "Hehe, yes, I don't seem to be able to remember something, hehe, it must be something unimportant......"

Xu Anping pressed his temples hard, what is the result of this TM?

Thinking that he had been working with this road for several months, and that he would continue to do so in the future, Xu Ping'an only felt dizzy, no, I wanted to be alone...... Don't ask me who Jingjing is!

Actually, Ushiida wasn't crazy just now, he just couldn't hear people mention food, and he was a little nervous when he mentioned food.

But if you want the kobold to send troops, it is actually not as difficult as Xu Ping'an thought.

Because Xu Anping has already entered a misunderstanding - if the kobold continue to develop on multiple fronts, they will naturally not have enough manpower, and they will not even be able to make up soldiers, let alone go on an expedition.

However, there is a tactic called reckless waves......
