The third competition is boat fighting.

The requirement for ship warfare is that the size of the ship can carry at least a hundred people, which is the minimum requirement for a warship. After filling a hundred people, the ship sails out to sea, and the speed is still compared, but the track will have many turns and detours, which adds a lot of difficulty.

It is important to know that some boats are designed with a long distance between the bow and stern and a pointed shape at both ends. This shape is the fastest in the water, but has a larger turning radius and is slightly less agile. For example, most of the ships of the Japanese people are of this shape. Most of the ships of the Eastern Sea Kingdom are wider at the end and shorter in length, and they are slightly slower but have a much smaller turning radius. If it is sailing in a straight line, it is naturally the first type of ship to prevail, but this kind of track with more turns requires the ship to have both speed and agility, depending on who has the higher shipbuilding skills.

There are obviously not so many teams participating in the ship battle. Each rebel army sent a total of 50 boats, that is, 50 teams to participate. Since each boat had to carry 100 people, the number of participants was higher than in the previous two days. Boat battles also scored more points than the previous two competitions, with many teams trying to win back points in collective events such as boat battles and artillery battles after losing swimming and water battles. It is important to know that troop combat, ship battles and artillery battles are the key, and it is extremely reasonable for the organizers of the conference to design scores in this way.

Kang Wansheng and Murong Feng did not separate this time, but shared a big boat to participate in the race, because this is a collective event, as long as the boat wins the competition, everyone on the boat can get victory points. Therefore, both of them competed at the same time.

The boat they participated in was the warship of the Shenshui Gate, and the boat was built by Chu Duyun himself. You must know that Chu Duyun is not only the number one blacksmith in the mainland, but also the best in the continent in terms of shipbuilding. It's just that the shipbuilding industry is only more developed in the East China Sea, so her reputation in this area is not as great as that of her blacksmith.

The ship was just enough to carry a hundred people. Due to Chu Duyun's special design, the length of the hull is between the pointed head ship of the Japanese people and the ordinary square-headed boat, and the speed is not as good as that of the pointed head boat, but in this kind of track, its advantages are very obvious. Not only is the straight-line acceleration fast, but also the turning radius is small, and the U-turn speed is also fast.

The sailors on the ship are all masters of the Shenshui Gate, although these masters are all women, but they are extremely good at boating. You must know that Shenshui Gate is named after water, and the ability on water is naturally powerful.

The power of the ship is divided into three parts. One is the wind, which is extremely slow to sail in the sea without the help of the wind. And long-distance voyages are basically dependent on the power of the wind. But in such a short race, wind alone is obviously not enough. Most boats have holes cut next to the cabins, which are equipped with oars, and the sailors in the cabins paddle together. The name of the ship is called Shenshui. The second power part that Chu Duyun designed for this boat was not an ordinary oar. She still saw that Du Wu's Valkyrie Chariot was inspired. On the wheel hub under the Valkyrie Chariot, there are some fan blades installed in the Regu Capital, these fan blades can be stepped on by the person in the car after the Vulcan's chariot is launched, and the fan blades can be rotated with the wheel hub by stepping on two pedals by the person in the car, and the fan blades are like a circle of oars, rowing the water flow forward. Chu Duyun was deeply inspired after seeing this design, and he also admired the hot ancient capital that designed these fan blades.

So she also designed and installed forty sets of huge runners on the Shenshui, and the bottom of the runner went underwater, and the runner was equipped with huge fan blades. Each set of runners is stepped on by two people at the same time, generating a huge rotational force that drives the fan blades to paddle, which is obviously much faster than paddling. It also saves much effort, and at the same time, it can solve the problem caused by the different frequencies of many people paddling.

On the Shenshui, there is a third power source, which is firepower. The stern of the Shenshui is equipped with a huge furnace, after the furnace is boiled, a large amount of steam will be generated, the vapor will be compressed to a certain extent, and then sprayed out through the jet device at the stern, which can also provide greater power for the Shenshui. One of the benefits of this power is that it provides a great boost when the boat is moving from standstill to start, which is beyond the reach of the wind and the wheel. And when the speed of the boat increases, this power does not help much.
