Chapter 457: Navy! Navy!
Along the way, Angru has been numb to the shock of the simply exaggerated scale and prosperity of Great Xia.
At this time, he realized what kind of behemoth they were facing before.
The lizardmen don't even have the qualifications to compare with it.
When he met Xia Qi, it was when Angru was the most nervous, and with the sound of "Your Majesty has arrived", his nerves suddenly tensed to the extreme.
I saw that Xia Qi, who was dressed in a black robe, slowly sat on the throne surrounded by a group of guards.
Looking at the young face on the throne, Anglo was stunned, but as the other party's gaze fell on him, he only felt a huge pressure.
This feeling of pressure made his breathing lighter.
"Adolf, see Your Majesty!"
On the other side, Adolf gave a military salute to Xia Qi.
Angru, who reacted, did the same, and hurriedly gave a military salute to Xia Qi, but compared to Adolf, he had no momentum at all.
Fortunately, Anglo has not officially belonged to anyone, and Xia Qi does not blame him for this.
Then, a customary process began, and Xia Qi officially accepted Anglo's allegiance.
Xia Qi smiled and welcomed the lizardmen clan to join the big family of Great Xia.
His gesture made Unglo, who had always been nervous, instantly flattered.
The submission of the lizardmen clan is really a great thing for Xia Qi.
The Lizardmen have a combat class in the water, which is of great value to Xia Qi, who is preparing to establish a navy, and the Lizardmen have the Scaly Rider as a flying unit, which can effectively expand the air force of Great Xia.
The most important point is that the lizardmen have giant beasts, and at the same time, the existence of the steel-jawed beasts directly increases the value of the lizardmen by at least one level.
In addition, if the lizardmen are solved, the mussel people will also surrender to Great Xia.
Although the attack power of the mussels is not very strong, they can at most serve as a auxiliary force on the battlefield.
Of course, there are benefits, but there are also troubles.
Although Xia Qi had already understood the whole incident in Arthur Wang's report, he still patiently re-understood it from Angru's mouth.
"Dark Elves, and Fishmen."
Just a hydra is a huge threat at sea, and now a group of fishmen must be added.
The most troublesome thing for Xia Qi is that these guys are still mixed together.
And then there's the one outside the swampy forest.
According to the news that the elven druids have been coming back one after another during this period of time, Xia Qi has learned that on that great plain, on both sides of the summer water, there are a full seventeen human kingdoms and forces.
At the same time, the area was quite large, the size of nearly two goblin districts.
But the problem is still the same problem, the current territory of Great Xia has reached its limit, and it is actually meaningless to expand it any further.
However, not territorial, population, mineral resources are still very fragrant.
So after a short period of thought, Xia Qi sent an envoy, with Su Qin as the main envoy, to those kingdoms.
At the same time, in order to prevent accidents, Xia Qi also specially equipped him with an army of 3,000 troops.
Straight to the point.
For Xia Qi, who is still in the infancy of the navy, it can be said that the beginning is hellish difficulty.
Even the lizardmen of the lizardmen clan can handle those fishmen, but what about hydra?
In the water, the Hydra can be said to be a strategic-level weapon.
I'm afraid that even the cannons at this stage can't take it, even if it's a phantom color, the hydra can't beat it and drill directly into the sea, and anyone will be dumbfounded.
Just when Xia Qi was distressed by this, Adolf and Angru rested in Great Xia City for two days before returning to the swamp forest.
One is to withdraw troops, and the other is to migrate the lizardmen.
Originally, Xia Qi planned to let the lizardmen stay on the other side of the swampy forest.
In this way, there is a good chance that those invading players will be teleported to a swamp, if nothing else, that swamp alone will have enough for them to eat a pot.
But because of some things after that, Xia Qi then dismissed this plan.
A few days later.
[You have won this support battle]
【You have obtained the item "Silver Chest]*1]
Ou Yo?
Xia Qi, who heard the system prompt, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that this wave also obtained a silver treasure chest.
Subsequently, after Jiang Ben's thanks, Xia Qi once again bought three silver props.
Looking at the three silver props in his hand, Xia Qi first handed over the design drawings of the coastal defense cannon to the Ordnance Department, so that they could develop and build them as quickly as possible.
Shore defense artillery, as the name suggests, is a cannon built on the shore.
At the same time, because it is fixed on the ground, there is no tonnage limit, as long as you have the ability, you can build as much as you want.
In the early wars, shore defense artillery played a great role, sinking countless ships.
After the shore defense artillery was developed, Xia Qi took the lead in building shore defense artillery on both sides of the summer water and Daxia Lake.
In particular, Great Xia Lake is so large that most of the remaining waters are not within the scope of Great Xia, except for its outer parts.
If one day, this news is learned by other players, and the other party directly gathers a large number of warships and chooses to invade, then the Great Xia City will be exposed to the guns of others.
Although there is also a navy on the Daxia side, but if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid that it will not be?
If it really doesn't work, Xia Qi will directly fill in the lake to make land, and then build various buildings on it.
At the same time, steam battleships are also a good thing.
In this matter, the priority in manufacturing is undoubtedly the battleship!
The early naval warfare mode was basically a typical doctrine of big ships and huge artillery.
To put it simply, you have a battleship that is heavier than your opponent's tonnage, carry more guns on board, and sink the enemy ship directly with the greater power and longer range of your large-caliber guns before your opponent gets close to you!
It, this is the maritime hegemony of that time.
It wasn't until the advent of aircraft carriers that the domination of battleships over the seas was finally ended!
The design drawings of the steam battleship, as well as the construction drawings of the lighthouse at sea, were sent by Xia Qi to the shipyard in the northeast region.
As for why Xia Qi built a shipyard in the northeast, isn't it a desert?
It all started with the past.
At the beginning, Hua Ye led his army all the way east, cleaning up the orc tribes along the way.
Those who are willing to surrender will be temporarily imprisoned, and those who are unwilling to surrender will be directly eliminated.
Then, an ocean appeared before their eyes.
After receiving this report, Xia Qi, who was too far away from the territory of Great Xia at that time, was overjoyed, and the news that came later surprised him beyond comprehension.
Because, what they found was not just a sea area, but a huge inland sea that was almost closed!
Such a geographical structure made it so that Xia Qi only needed to defend at its exit, and the enemy's warships could not enter, while the warships of Great Xia could go back safely to repair and replenish.
didn't say anything, after Xia Qi rewarded Huaye and the soldiers under his command, he directly turned his attention to the inland sea.
It just so happened that Xia Qi had opened a gold-level port construction drawing before, and if he didn't say it, he used it directly.
Shipyards, Daxia also have, and even shipbuilders are ready-made, and when the new shipyard is built, they can be transferred.
Straight to the point.
After sending the drawings out, Xia Qi calmed down for a long time.
At the same time, a difficult problem was placed in front of him.
The geographical location of the inland sea is indeed very good, and it can withstand enemy warships.
However, what can block the surface of the water, but what about the underwater?
Fishmen, hydras, and even submarines in future naval battles.
"Tsk!"
Xia Qi tugged at his hair with some distress.
Just then, a guard walked in from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, Potter asks to see you."
Hearing this name, Xia Qi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Let him in."
After receiving Xia Qi's summons, people came quickly.
Potter is a typical dwarven figure, who loves to drink, smoke, and burn his hair......
Cough!
In short, this guy is a genius at mixing gunpowder.
A few years ago, after Xia Qi's unlocking all the way, a new special building was finally unlocked, the Gunpowder Workshop.
This gunpowder workshop is specially designed to mix gunpowder, which can improve the efficiency and quality of gunpowder and the power of explosion.
At present, all the gunpowder used in all firearms in Great Xia comes from the gunpowder workshop.
While the gunpowder workshop produced gunpowder in large quantities, Xia Qi gave Porter, the person in charge of the gunpowder workshop, a task, that is, to mix more powerful gunpowder, which is the so-called high gunpowder!
"Wechen Potter, see Your Majesty!"
"Excuse me."
Seeing this, Xia Qi waved his hand to signal him to excuse himself, and then asked him about the high gunpowder.
"Potter, is there any new development on the Gunpowder side?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the purpose of Wechen's visit this time is to tell Your Majesty that the latest type of high gunpowder has been successfully blended!"
Speaking of this, Rao was in front of His Majesty the Emperor Xia Qi, and Potter's tone couldn't help but bring some smugness.
The matter of mixing gunpowder is not as simple as imagined.
With a successful recipe, it's even harder to make any improvements.
Therefore, being able to improve the latest type of high gunpowder formula in a short period of time, Potter is indeed proud of his capital.
Xia Qi, who received such a reply, was suddenly overjoyed.
After rewarding Potter, he ordered Gondor to be called to the Dwarven Master Forge and Deputy Minister of Ordnance Research.
Because, just now, Xia Qi thought of a good way to prevent underwater enemies.
"Mines?"
Later, Xia Qi told Gondor about the concept and general function of the mine.
Gondor had an extremely keen sense of smell in the manufacture of thermal weapons, and at this moment his face showed an irrepressible look of excitement.
Xia Qi's words directly made his inspiration explode instantly.
After obtaining Xia Qi's consent, Gangduo took out the pen and paper he was carrying on the spot, and then wrote down the ideas in his head in turn in front of Xia Qi.
While writing, I will put forward some ideas from time to time and discuss them with Xia Qi.
Xia Qi is no stranger to this, he has been like this for I don't know how many years before, with many years of rich experience in dealing with Xia Fox, coupled with the open thinking of modern people, he can completely cope with these topics that Gondor ran out.
It's not like giving better advice.
I don't know how long it took, Gondor finally left satisfied, and Xia Qi let out a long breath.
I have to say that dealing with these guys is really tiring.
