312: Battleship launched

The griffin flapped its wings and began to fly slowly, and Anning watched Aslan leave.

"That's right. Maybe I'll be able to surprise you guys a little later. Aslan's words fell, and the two figures had disappeared into the air.

An Ning looked at the big tree in front of her, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Maybe this can really be our home. Not inferior to the place of the Eternal Forest. ”

However, no one noticed that Aslan left on his front foot, and Ashley Warden rode on his back foot and disappeared with him.

Aslan did not go back to Feitian City directly, but flew to Feihu Port.

The gallery lake stretches as far as the eye can see, and for those who have never seen the sea, this is the sea.

Fishing boats are constantly drifting on the gallery lake, and nets are being cast.

The size of the lattice of the fishing net is generally relatively large, almost a fist can pass through, this is the fisherman's fishing rule, young fish do not catch, this is to prevent the occurrence of killing chickens and eggs.

A row of walls has been built in the outermost area of Feihu Port, and the city walls are very thick, especially near the dock, which is heavily guarded.

In other places, tall buildings have been built, but most of them are still under construction.

In a nearby river that extends from the lake, a large dock stands there, and there are many warships docked next to it.

But today, everyone's eyes are focused on a warship, the pitch-black structure is not very gorgeous, the huge hull looks a little bloated, and there are no sails on the deck that other ships have, and it is very bare.

It was a strange ship, no one had ever seen such a ship, and at this time the ship was parked in the shipyard of the dockyard, and it had not yet touched the sea.

"You think this strange boat can really be launched. ”

"Unlikely. You see, it's all steel. If something so heavy falls into the sea, it can't sink yet. ”

"I don't think so, but without sails and oars, can such a big ship move? ”

"I think it's hard. And the ship was built so fast that it seemed to take only a month. ”

"Anyway, I'll go back to work when I'm done. ”

Everyone next to the dockyard looked at the black monster with questioning eyes.

"When will the Duke arrive!" Sergei asked Liu Bowen next to him.

Liu Bowen said, "When I set off before, the Duke said that he would come over soon. I guess there's something wrong with Elven Island!, but it's almost there. ”

"Mr. Sergey. This one...... This black boat can really go out. Zoros next to him frowned at the ship he had never seen in his life.

"It's so hard. A white-bearded middle-aged man next to him shook his head and said, this middle-aged man has scars on his face and a lot of scars on his body, but there is a different feeling in his eyes.

Sergei smiled and said, "In the past, Lord Duke used to say. No matter how much I say, it's useless, and only when you officially meet will you understand the wonder of this monster. ”

"Then we're looking forward to it. Compared to the others, Liu Bowen was very calm, because he knew that this ship was built on the principle that the Duke said.

Since it is something that the Duke thinks can be successful, then it will definitely succeed.

Sergei is the third bachelor introduced by Sherington and Addison, compared to Addison's comprehensiveness, Sherrington's mechanics, Sergei only likes one kind of research, that is, shipbuilding, the fastest battleship in the current empire, the Exocet-class, which he studied, but the Exocet-class is fast, but the defense and combat effectiveness are too poor, and most of the time it is used as a transport speedboat.

Because of this, Sergei was not taken seriously in the major shipbuilding cities in the south, and was finally pulled by Addison with a letter.

At that time, Addison spoke directly to Sergei.

Do you want to see a battleship made of all steel?

At that time, Sergei, who had been swept away from the major shipyards, got up and came to Feitian City without any hesitation, but under Aslan's introduction, especially after the plan to perfectly combine the magic source engine with the warship was proposed, Sergei was suddenly shocked.

Combining the magic source engine with the warship, Sergei thought about it a long time ago, but the magic source engine is expensive, not to mention, to combine the magic source engine with the warship, it is necessary to develop a new underwater power system, which he has not yet conceived, and it has not been studied long ago without Flying City, but no one can practice and produce it.

At this moment, two figures appeared in the distance in the sky.

"Your Excellency, they are here. ”

The two birds landed on the platform that had been prepared long ago next to the dock.

"Your Excellency. ”

"Your Excellency. ”

The group was half-kneeling on the ground, and the other civilians around them also knelt on the ground.

This is what they kneel from the bottom of their hearts.

"Get up. How's the preparations? Aslan said, looking at the black battleship.

"The preparations are all in place, now it's just a matter of dragging the hull out of the dock and into the river. Sergei said aloud.

"Good. Let's go. When I'm launched, I'd like to get on board and see our first battleship. Aslan said with a smile.

The first battleship, maybe this battleship has a lot of flaws, but this is only the first step of the Flying City to the sea, Aslan believes that soon, there will be a navy on the sea, they are flying the flag of the Flying City, they are not afraid of the wind and waves, they are not afraid of the enemy, their goal is to conquer the sea.

Some people must ask, the Flying Sky City is in the inland area, far from the sea, and the gallery lake is indeed big and deep enough, and there is no need to build a strong navy.

In fact, less than 20 kilometers south of the gallery lake, there is a river called Mellan, which is the second largest river in the Baiyun Empire, which was dug in 200 years to connect the Rhinegu River and become the Grand Canal of the Baiyun Empire.

So Aslan has sent someone to survey to see if they can dig a way to connect the Mellan River, which is said to have merged with Gallery Lake during a major flood.

It is believed that good news will be brought to Aslan soon.

A huge crane starts slowly, pulling up the sluice gates and allowing the lake to pour into the dock.

"The battleship began to be launched, everyone paid attention. Sergey shouted.

The launch began.

The crew began to get busy, and a ramp appeared in front of the battleship, and below the ramp was the lake that poured into the dock.

One by one, the devices that had been used to hold the hull of the battleship were unfastened, and when the last fixture was unfastened, the huge hull began to row into the water under the impetus of a group of strong men.

At this time, almost everyone's hearts were raised.
