The cabin was narrow and narrow. Qin Feng sat on the small bed and pulled Jin Jingnan and Xiaomao to sit on his left and right. There was no place to sit on the small bed. Looking at Ning Zeyuan and Geng Jingming, Qin Feng pointed to the table opposite, and the two of them looked embarrassed. Although there was no problem with sitting on the table, the seat would be higher than that of the emperor when sitting on it like this, but it seemed that there was no reason to ask the emperor to sit on the table.

"If you can sit, how can you get so many Xiaojiujiu?" Qin Feng glared at them, "Tell me about the situation. When we walk a little further, we will go to the deck to see the scenery."

Hearing the emperor say this, Ning Zeyuan and Geng Jingming both sued each other and sat on the table. Yu Cong and Qiu Dongye, two fourth-rank officials, could not even enter the cottage, so they could only look at the two of them leaning against the door frame. The door of the cabin was small, and their heads leaned against the left and right.

"Your Majesty, the goal we selected this time is an unknown island fifty miles away from Huludao. This island is basically composed of rocks, and there is no tamsui on the island. It is a place suitable for drilling." Ning Zeyuan, sitting at the table, tried his best to lower his head, and his posture seemed a bit weird. "The Ming Dynasty and other warships will arrive in about an hour. Because the experimental ship has to cooperate with their speed, they can only drive at this speed."

Ning Ze pointed to a nautical chart hanging in the cabin. The nameless island was marked with a small red circle, which was very conspicuous.

"What is the fastest speed of the Ming Dynasty and other warships?"

"Your Majesty, what I am talking about is the fastest speed in normal state. Of course, during the battle, you will also get a certain speedup." Ning Ze walked far away.

Qin Feng nodded. Basically, the old warships still use manpower and wind to promote them. At this speed, Xu Lai has carried out a large-scale transformation of the power system and used a large number of gears and transmission shafts to maximize the manpower.

"What is the maximum speed of the new warship in the test?"

"More than twice the old-style warship." Ning Zeyuan replied.

Qin Feng calculated silently in his heart that fifty miles were twenty-five kilometers, and one hour was two hours. After all, the speed of the old warship was about ten kilometers per hour. Of course, if it was a smooth flow, it would definitely be much faster. The speed of the new warship could double the speed of the old warship, and one hour was twenty kilometers, which was much faster than the speed of the steam engine ship in his previous life.

"After going to sea later, I will order the experimental ship to advance at full speed, and I don't have to worry about other warships." Qin Fengdao.

Ning Zeyuan was shocked: "Your Majesty, in this way, the experimental ship will have no protection."

Qin Feng smiled faintly, "This is the Huludao Sea. Could it be that there is anything else that dares to act here without opening your eyes? Or do you have no confidence in the performance of this ship itself?"

Before Ning Zeyuan could speak, Yu Cong, who had a head stuck in outside the door, shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, I guarantee it with my life that the hull of the experimental ship is good, and all indicators are excellent, so there will be no problems."

"Look, Master Yu has already guaranteed it. What are you afraid of? Go and give an order!" Qin Feng waved his hand.

Ning Zeyuan had no choice but to get off the table and walked out of the cabin.

After leaving a tall, fully armed guy, the cabin suddenly seemed much more spacious. Qin Feng waved to the two outside: "Come in, squeeze in, and tell me in detail about the experiment."

Yu Cong and Qiu Dongye squeezed into the cabin. Fortunately, they were both thin and small, and together they were not much wider than Ning Zeyuan, who was fully armed, so they were all stuffed in and sat on the table like Geng Jingming.

"Your Majesty, this time we selected this island for the purpose of confidentiality, and the other hand, it was just for us to experiment with the various properties of artillery and collect various shooting data. On land, although we have collected a lot of shooting data, at sea and above warships are completely different combat environments."

"I understand this." Qin Fengdao.

"This time, in addition to collecting these shooting speeds, we also want to test some newly developed shells, such as chain shells and flowering shells. So on this unknown island, Mr. Ning has made some arrangements."

"Even the flowering bullet was made?" Qin Feng was a little surprised.

"Yes." Qiu Dongye nodded happily, but in a blink of an eye, he became serious again: "It's just that the gunpowder is still very flawed. For example, the problem of too much smoke has not been obvious. "

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Qin Feng smiled and said, "You can't beat the masters of the gunpowder development team. They do the work slowly. They do this, but they risk their lives to do it. By the way, how much gunpowder can there be in Nissan now in the gunpowder workshop of the Weapon Research Institute?"

"A hundred kilograms a day." Qiudongye said, "I am also trying to find ways to increase the output."

"A hundred pounds a day is a lot." Geng Jingming, who was on the side, said in surprise.

"Far from enough." Qiudongye said sternly: "Your Majesty, I guess that our Ming army will inevitably approach the era of full gunpowder. One day, the current big sword, spear, bow and arrow will be replaced by gunpowder weapons. Think about it, the Ming Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, if they really want to fight, even if each person consumes one pound of gunpowder every day, how big should the total amount be? This does not include the gunpowder needed by the people such as mining!"

Geng Jingming widened his eyes and began to settle accounts in his heart.

"How come you have such an idea?" Qin Feng was surprised by the wisdom of people in this era. This problem is naturally not a problem for him, but for people in this era where Gunpowder has just been released, this problem is too advanced.

"Power, Your Majesty, Power!" Qiudongye shouted: "Since ancient times, war has always destroyed everything, but war has also driven us to invent countless equipment. We are always pursuing more effective ways to kill the enemy. Weapons such as cannons, thunderbolts, catapults, and powerful crossbows will inevitably be eliminated. When I brought the cannon to the gourd, a master craftsman submitted a research report to me. I felt it was very necessary and had approved him to take an experimental team to solve the problem."

"What kind of research report?"

"The reduced version of the cannon." Qiu Dongye said: "The master also participated in the development of the cannon. Seeing that the power of the cannon was so great, he imagined that if such a weapon could reduce the weight, or even operate it easily at a soldier, then on the battlefield, who dared to win over my Daming sharpness, and a volley, would solve everything. And the big sword and spear must always be close to you."

"It makes sense!" Qin Feng smiled and applauded: "To do research means to dare to think and do it."

After being encouraged, Qiu Dongye became even more excited. "If we really make this, even an ordinary soldier will not have to be afraid when facing a martial arts master. Think about it, dozens of soldiers fired alternately at the master one by one, one by one. Even if he has the ability to do great things, he will probably not be able to escape the shooting. Hahaha!"

As soon as Qiu Dongye finished speaking, the cabin suddenly became cold. Qiu Dongye looked at the strange faces of the people in the cabin and suddenly came to his senses. Isn’t Your Majesty a master of martial arts? In a flash, cold sweat appeared on his face.

Qin Feng seemed to have no idea: "It makes sense, it makes sense. Qiu Dajiang, I hope that one day you can make this thing."

"The Weapon Research Institute will definitely complete the tasks assigned by Your Majesty." Seeing that Qin Feng was not angry at all, the people in the room started to survive.

"Kitten, the Ministry of War wants to manage gunpowder and firearms, so that no leak can be released." Qin Feng touched his chin and said, "Master Qiu just reminded me that if the management is not strict, you said that if someone gets more than a dozen cannons and bombards the place where I live, I might be killed as a scum before I figured out the situation."

The atmosphere that had just become active in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point again. The old sweat in the wild autumn and winter had not dried up, and new sweat emerged again.

The kitten glanced at Qiu Dongye fiercely and said with a grim smile: "I will do this, but who dares to be unfavorable to Your Majesty? The kitten cut him into pieces."

"It's not just me, but other ministers can't do it!" Qin Feng said seriously: "This thing has a long range and great power. If it is not strictly managed and falls into the hands of people with ulterior motives, it will be a disaster. Qiu Dajiang, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at Qin Feng with calm clouds and gentle winds, the autumn and winter wilderness was frightened. The ancients said that being with the king is like being with a tiger. It is really sincere and not to deceive me. In just a few short breaths, the emperor had already let his heart go to heaven and land several times.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just a little scared."

"What are you afraid of? There is no problem in studying weapons itself. The problem is how to use these weapons so that they can make the greatest contribution to my Ming Dynasty." Qin Feng chuckled, "Work hard, Qiu Dajiang, if your Weapon Research Institute can really develop light, easy-to-use, powerful gunpowder weapons to replace our current big sword and spear, I guarantee you the position of a Duke."

This promise is huge. You should know that the Ming Dynasty has been in its founding for more than ten years, and so far there are only two dukes, one is Wang Hou, the former Minister of Personnel, who has been dead for a long time, and the other is Quan Yun, the former chief minister who has just stepped down. It seems that the emperor is really concerned about this matter.

Even Jin Jingnan looked at Qiudongye with great envy at this time. He has not even won the title of Master Hou yet! But looking at the emperor's appearance, it seems that this is not an easy task.

It is lightweight, easy to use, powerful, and simple seven words, which may take the effort of a generation.
