Chapter 321: Go to Goryeo to install wheels on the big ship

Guo An said: "Weichen will take Tao Yiping and Yang Ting tomorrow!" ”

Zhu Di nodded: "Yes!" ”

Zhu Liang, Qiu Fu and other veterans also hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, the last general is willing to lead troops to protect Guo Changshi and this steam engine!" ”

"You guys?"

Zhu Di couldn't help but look weird.

Guo An hurriedly said: "The steam engine is not precious, such a large piece of steel object, even if it is given to those people, they don't know how to use it.

What is precious is the entire firearms workshop, the drawings in the workshop, those secret recipes, and all kinds of firearms bombs.

Therefore, please also ask the old generals to stay in the firearms workshop and not leave half a step! ”

The veterans who couldn't wear armor didn't dare to take them to Goryeo.

In this era, it is a very dangerous thing to go out in a horse-drawn carriage, let alone cross the sea by boat.

Zhu Di, Qiu Fu and other veterans couldn't help but hurriedly look at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di also shook his head again and again, "What Guo Qing said is reasonable, you need to guard the firearms workshop for us."

As for the steam engine installed on the big ship, we will allow you to experience it for yourself! ”

"The last general obeys!"

Zhu Liang and Qiu Fu reluctantly responded.

Guo An said again: "Your Highness, Weichen will bring 10,000 catties of stainless steel to Goryeo!" ”

"Ten thousand catties?"

Zhu Di was shocked again, and he was still a little puzzled.

Guo An explained: "Your Highness, Weichen is worried that the wooden planks on those big ships can't bear the weight of the steam engine, and they need to lay steel on the bottom of the big ships!" ”

"But, we will order someone to go to the smelting station to pull 10,000 catties of steel!"

Zhu Di nodded directly.

Now, there is no shortage of steel in his Yan Wangfu.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

……

At night.

Guo An and Liu Baiwei spoke.

Early the next morning, he took Erniu and went to Goryeo.

Over the years, Guo An has only taken Erniu and a personal guard when he goes out.

As for the other guards, they are all in charge of Yan Shanwei.

This kind of thing, not only Guo An is used to it, but Zhu Di and the others Yan Shanwei have long been used to it!

At Zhangjiawan Wharf, there were already five big ships waiting for Guo An.

As for the 10,000 catties of steel and the huge steam engine, they were arranged by Zhu Di last night, dismantled overnight, and loaded onto the big ship.

Therefore.

The people on the entire Zhangjiawan wharf only knew that Guo Changshi, who was in the Yanwang Mansion, took a thousand Yan Shanwei and went to sea to inspect Goryeo.

……

Half a month later.

The fleet arrived directly at Ganghwa Port.

Sun Yan, Chang Guoting and others, who were stationed in Jianghua Port, couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Guo An getting off the ship, as well as the 1,000 heavily armed Yan Shanwei.

"Guo Changshi, but what happened?"

"Don't worry, it's no big deal!"

Guo An smiled lightly, "We have something to do to go to the shipyard and load a big ship with an object." ”

"This will be arranged!"

Sun Yan hurriedly said.

The shipyard is on the side of Ganghwa Port, and the shipyard is much larger than Ganghwa Port.

There are only 500 Yanshanwei stationed in the shipyard.

However, the firepower in the hands of these five hundred households is comparable to Sun Yan's one thousand households.

Moreover, the waters were covered with all kinds of traps and bombs, and no one or ship was allowed to rush into them.

After hearing that Guo An was going to enter the shipyard with five big ships.

Zhang Wu, a thousand households stationed in the shipyard, hurriedly brought a group of subordinate generals to pay a visit.

"Zhang Wu has seen Guo Changshi!"

"Guo An has seen Zhang Qianhu!"

Guo An and Zhang Wu have not met a few times, but they have also heard of this person, who is a confidant who came from Beijing with Zhu Di.

At the beginning, he guarded 100 households for the right side of Yansan, but when he attacked Goryeo Kaesong, he made great contributions and was promoted to 1,000 households.

And Zhang Wu, the 'old man' in Yanshanwei, is because he knows Guo An very well, so he has special respect.

"I don't know what is the important matter for Guo Changshi to come to the shipyard this time?"

"This official has 10,000 catties of stainless steel, as well as a group of craftsmen, to load a big ship with one thing!"

"10,000 catties of steel?"

As for what things were installed, Zhang Wu didn't care, but he was surprised by the 10,000 catties of steel.

"Exactly!"

Guo An nodded slightly, "I still need to bother Zhang Qianhu to send someone to lead these five big ships into the shipyard!" ”

"Guo Changshi, please rest assured!"

Zhang Wu looked at a hundred households beside him, "Li Yong, quickly lead people to lead Guo Changshi's five big ships into the shipyard!" ”

"The last general obeys!"

A hundred households, who were not good-looking, but were very capable from top to bottom, answered the call and walked towards the ship with a few subordinates.

Soon, five large ships slowly moved towards the shipyard.

"Guo Changshi, I'll wait here, please!"

Zhang Wu invited Guo An.

"Zhang Qianhu, please!"

Guo An said politely, followed Zhang Wu, followed Jianghua Port to the south, entered a hidden cement road, and after walking about a hundred steps, he entered the shipyard.

The shipyard is huge, and eight dockyards have been built.

Inside, nearly 1,000 Goryeo craftsmen are busy back and forth.

Zhang Wu took Guo An directly to a dock.

The five big ships were already quietly docked on the dock.

This time, it was replaced by Guo An and took Zhang Wu to board a big ship.

"Zhang Qianhu, you need to put this object in the cabin of the big ship."

"This ......"

Zhang Wu, Sun Yan and the others couldn't help but be full of surprise when they looked at the huge steel object in front of them.

"Guo Changshi, what is this?"

"The wheels of the big ship!"

Guo An smiled lightly, "These steel objects are the wheels of a big ship, which can make the big ship run faster in the sea!" ”

"The wheels of a big ship?"

Zhang Wu, Sun Yan and others were still confused.

However, several people did not doubt the truth of Guo An's words.

Soon.

Then he called a few shipbuilders, including the Ming and the Koreans.

The steam engine was removed from the ship and assembled.

Then, after experimenting with the shipbuilders, their eyes lit up.

They had already thought about how much benefit it would be for a big ship to install these steam engines on the bottom of the ship.

The only concern is that the bottom of the big ship is full of planks, and I am afraid that after a long time, it will not be able to bear the weight of the steam engine.

However, after hearing that Guo An brought 10,000 catties of steel, which could be laid on the bottom of the big ship, these shipbuilders excitedly said that there was no problem.

10,000 catties of steel can be used by them to the bottom of the big ship, and they have never experienced this kind of rich life.

As for Guo An, after giving an explanation to these craftsmen, he left Tao Yiping, Yang Ting and others, and followed Zhang Wu to inspect the shipyard.

In fact, to say that it is an inspection is to satisfy Guo An's curiosity.

Even if there is any loophole somewhere, Guo An believes that he can't see it himself.

……

And in the country of Goryeo, Kaesong.

Jin Zhong, Sun Ke, Zhang Xing and others also received reports.

"Guo Changshi came to Jianghua Port with a thousand Yan Shanwei, is he going to the shipyard?"

"Exactly!"

"Could it be that His Royal Highness King Yan is preparing to carry out trade between Beiping Mansion and the Wa Kingdom?"

Jin Zhong and Shang Kezhou and other civil officials glanced at each other, their faces full of doubts.

"Probably not, the Wa Kingdom is too far away from Beiping Mansion. And there aren't too many big ships these days......"

Zhang Xing said slowly.

It's just that Jin Zhong and Shang Kezhou have already gotten up, "Commander Zhang, Commander Sun, the lower officials are going to meet Guo Changshi, and the city will be handed over to the two commanders!" ”

With that, the two of them had already walked out.

Behind them, Zhang Xing and Sun Ke looked helpless!

These civil officials don't have the stinky problems of those civil officials in the court, and they like to look down on military generals.

However, it is too casual!

Sometimes, I want to directly pull these generals and use them as civilian officials!

……

I'm sorry~~ My eyes suddenly changed, and I can't see things blurry, so I'll change four thousand today!
