Daming: The king and grandson return and don't proclaim themselves emperor? I am the sea lord Chapter 60 A Thousand Miles of Jiangling Returned in Half a Day?
Chapter 60 A Thousand Miles of Jiangling Returned in Half a Day?
"The treasure ship I built is very big, can run very well, and has iron walls."
"Isn't that the Black Dragon Boat?"
"That's a boat, and it only has a copper skin, not a copper wall. The waves in the rivers and lakes are just fine. Can you try galloping in the ocean?"
Wang Huai and Lao Zhu discussed the terms, and A Biao nodded.
"It is too dangerous for ordinary ships to go out to sea. There are strong winds and waves, and the reefs are swelled. The ship will capsize at any time."
Wang Huai looked at Lao Zhu and A Biao with a smile.
"So the treasure ship I built is made of copper and iron, and the hull is strong. Your Majesty no longer has to worry about me capsizing the ship."
Lao Zhu finally realized what Wang Huai wanted and took action.
"This is worth more than silver. Do you want steel to build a ship? Do you know how to build a ship?"
Wang Huai laughed.
"Does Your Majesty need to know how to steam steamed buns? But if you want to gain reputation, conquer the country, and be able to govern the country, then naturally someone will steam the steamed buns so that people all over the world can have steamed buns to eat and not go hungry."
"Similarly, I don't know how to build a ship, but if you come up with an idea, there will be people who can."
Wang Huai said, looking at Lao Zhu with a smile.
Seeing Wang Huai's confident self-confidence, Lao Zhu didn't believe his lies at all!
He can see doctors and tell fortunes, he can do Taoism and martial arts, he can train soldiers and fight, which is already incredible.
He can even do technical work. Is this Wang Huai a human being? Will he still let others live?
Moreover, it is very difficult to cover a ship with copper, but he also wants to make it with steel?
When can ships be made of steel?
Is he a joke sent by the monkey?
Lao Zhu had a black line on his face.
"Building a ship is no joke, let alone making it out of iron. Can iron float?"
"Do you know how to build a boat?"
"Boy, we know you are quite capable, but this treasure ship is so ambitious. Let's be more cautious, okay?"
As Lao Zhu spoke, he became even more sincere.
Wang Huai had long expected this drama, so he smiled slightly, took out a roll of paper from his sleeve, slowly unfolded it, and spread it in front of Lao Zhu and A Biao.
The picture shows an dissected hull of a ship, and the corresponding dimensions are marked, revealing the mystery in the complexity.
Looking at the drawings, Lao Zhu's pupils shrank slightly, his eyes full of shock.
"This, this size, don't you know how to measure? There is no ship of this size!"
Abiao stared closely and said slowly:
"Is it possible that Taoist Master Xiao Wang measured feet into feet and inches into feet?"
Wang Huai shook his head, wondering how to describe this ship, which was as wide as a football field and as long as two football fields.
Abiao explained.
"If the label is correct, this is two Fengtian Palaces spliced together and mounted on a ship - a moving palace!"
Wang Huai gave Ah Biao a thumbs up and explained calmly.
"That's right, the captain is 48 feet long and 20 feet wide. The keel is made of steel. At the same time, the craftsmanship cannot keep up, so the hull is made of mahogany and covered with a thick layer of steel armor. Thousands of cannons cannot penetrate that kind.
."
After a long time, Liang Zhu realized that Wang Huai was not joking.
This is the first generation steel ship that has never been seen or heard of!
If he was really successful in casting, ordinary wind and waves, ordinary rocks, and pirates' artillery would only scratch the ship!
If it hits a wooden boat, it's like a stone hitting an egg!
Moreover, there is still room for additional artillery!
A true overlord of the sea.
If you want to grant this Wang Huai a large number of artillery pieces and the vast ocean, he can go wild. What kind of tyranny is that!
Iron armor collides, thousands of guns are fired, what kind of ship can't be sunk? What beach can't be captured?
Both Lao Zhu and A Biao clearly understood that once this ship was built, the pattern of naval battles would change because of Wang Huai!
But there is one more thing: can a ship made of steel and mahogany really float and sail in the sea?
Both are materials that sink when exposed to water.
Then will this boat sink in the river before it even sets out to sea?
Just a single ship consumes a lot of steel, and if the ship sinks, it will be more painful than floating in the water!
Lao Zhu shook his head slightly.
"Wang Huai, we will give you the ten million silver, but this iron ship cannot be built. With the materials you use, a wooden ship may sink, let alone an iron ship?"
Wang Huai looked around for a week and picked up a copper stove.
Lao Zhu looked wary.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to beat someone up?"
Wang Huai was too lazy to answer and walked out of the hall.
Lao Zhu and A Biao were a little confused, so don't take anything away from them if they fall out.
He followed Wang Huai and stepped out of the palace gate.
By the small pool.
Wang Huai stopped and threw the copper incense burner away. It dropped to the water and swayed for a few times before stopping firmly.
Lao Zhu looked surprised.
"Huh? Can the copper stove float on water?"
Abiao stretched out his hand to press the copper furnace.
"After all, it is round and hollow inside. The ship is long and flat, and it is often fully loaded with cargo."
You're a jerk, you're a straight otaku, I'm drunk too!
Wang Huai complained in his heart, but he could only laugh.
"Let you see what surfing is and what it means to sail across the sea when the wind blows and the waves break!"
Wang Huai waved his hand and walked outside the palace.
Lao Zhu and A Biao looked at each other, a little confused. What kind of medicine is this Xiao Wang Huai selling in the gourd?
Still follow him and move forward.
Your Majesty and the Crown Prince actually followed Taoist Priest Wang. You, the Jin Yiwei, looked at me, and I looked at you, equally confused.
The only thing that is certain is that Mr. Wang will not be unfavorable to their boss.
Jiang Wei followed and did not ask anyone else to follow.
moat.
Wang Huai's Xuanlong boat was parked quietly.
Ah Biao was careful and noticed something fishy.
"The sails of this ship are still there, but where are the oars on the left and right sides of the ship? How could it have sailed over if there was no wind?"
Wang Huai chuckled.
"This is a black technology. The oars are changed into impellers. The boatman only needs one."
"Paddle yourself..."
Lao Zhu stopped himself mid-sentence.
It's impossible even if you think about it, this guy can't even do military training himself, let alone the heavy work of rocking a boat...
The only thing in the world that he can do personally is the female child...
"I put a few coal-burning pots in, the water boiled and the steam rushed to the pot lid. The lid pushed a crankshaft, and the crankshaft drove the impeller..."
Steam engine, Wang Huai could only explain it this way.
Lao Zhu was surprised that this pot was Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace, and was the boatman the boy who lit the fire?
Abiao stared behind the boat for a long time and shook his head slightly.
"This impeller is too small. Is it half as fast as a sail or a human?"
What a joke.
Wang Huai laughed.
"Let's put it this way, with favorable winds and smooth currents, at most a thousand miles of Jiangling can be returned in one day; if I tell you that this thing can be returned to a thousand miles of Jiangling twice a day, does the prince believe it?"
Lao Zhu and A Biao shook their heads at the same time.
This Wang Huai is becoming increasingly unreliable.
I don’t know how many horses were killed in the 800-mile rush!
If a fast horse doesn't eat grass, it won't die from exhaustion. If it doesn't stop all day and night, it can barely run so far.
There is no such thing as a tired horse!
He wants to run two thousand miles in a day, with wings on his fast horse?
Lao Zhu didn't believe it at all, and his face became a little impatient.
"Did you come here just to see this thing?"
Wang Huai shook his head.
"Of course not. Let's go surfing today and let His Majesty open his eyes."
With that said, Wang Huai clapped his hands, and two special forces soldiers moved out a large box.
As soon as the lid of the box was opened, both Lao Zhu and A Biao were stunned... This chapter has been completed!
