Chapter 1078 The rain is about to come, and the world will be in chaos!
After Chai Shao really came to learn about these warships in person, he couldn't calm down anymore.
So that day... Chai Shao originally thought that the new warship should be launched later, after all, the weather was not quiet enough that night... Although Hangzhou has a good harbor and is not afraid of storms, Chai Shao still wanted stability.
These new warships are so special... Chai Shao can only say that he really dares to risk his life to ensure that these warships are intact!
Li Sheng said that the factory's production capacity and the use of waterways...are all scheduled.
So Chai Shao had no choice but to obey his orders. After all, if "that kind of warship" was built, then Li Sheng would be the boss. Even if Li Sheng said that the sun rises from the west, he would have to accept whatever he said.
Chai Shao was extremely excited.
That night, at the turn of the Chou and Yin hours, it was exactly four o'clock in the morning when the wind was blowing through the green trees. Generally speaking, from the end of the Yin hour to the Mao hour, it is the time for general production activities or military drills to "dot the clock". Naturally, it is also
When humans are most sleepy.
But Chai Shao was in high spirits that night. Compared with the troops he brought, the young soldiers and captains of the Zhongzuo Institute were much more energetic. Their eyes were shining brightly all the way here!
Along the way, Chai Shao even asked the entire army to start the internal combustion engines on the ship to speed up the operation, hoping to reach Hangzhou in the shortest possible time. This made the soldiers who followed him very puzzled.
I'm just here to receive a new ship, a new ship... Although the Holy Commander is good at building ships, the ships he builds are also very powerful.
But...everyone, is it really necessary to sail over here in such a hurry?
Among the entire team, Chai Shao was actually the only one who was in high spirits almost throughout the whole process.
but!
After arriving at the Hangzhou port, I saw strange-looking ships docked at the pier...
The Forbidden Army soldiers who came with Chai Shao were all stunned...
"Chai...Chai Shuai, why...how could this ship be like this?"
"hehe……"
Chai Shao sneered.
The night is dark and the wind is howling!
Occasionally there was lightning flashing through the clouds.
At this moment, Chai Shao himself felt a little funny.
Such a warship... I'm afraid it is the best in the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a god-level warship.
When foreigners saw this ship sailing, they would be so frightened that they bowed their heads and worshiped. He was so nervous to sail so many ships to escort him. It was really... As for the wind and rain, in Chai Shao's opinion, it was...
It's not even worth mentioning.
At that time, a storm was approaching at the port of Hangzhou, and sometimes I could already feel the pebble-like raindrops hitting my face, with such force that it was as painful as a hard iron slingshot.
But Chai Shao's old wrinkled face only had an excited sneer at the moment.
"Warships can be like this. Otherwise...what do you think the Holy Commander relied on to achieve his current status?"
After saying that, Chai Shao turned around with a subtle sneer and glanced at the young captains who followed him.
As Chai Shao expected, everyone in this group of people looked shocked!
To be honest, it's not just them...
If he hadn't obtained a sketch of the new warship and seen it with his own eyes a few days ago, Chai Shao secretly thought that he might have had the same look at this moment.
But now... Bu Qu and the captain behind him were shocked or not. This is not the focus that Chai Shao needs to focus on. The focus that Chai Shao needs to focus on is the warships themselves. How can they successfully sail these little cuties into the middle of the sea?
Go to Zuosuo's port, and...and how to use these unprecedented and strange warships at sea...
Even if Chai Shao just thinks about this thing, he can't imagine how foreign warships can compete with it!
…
But it is said that Datang is running at high speed internally.
Li Erju was in charge of Chang'an and was in charge of the establishment of a new law-governed college and the construction of the Forbidden Army.
Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Wuji were extremely busy.
On the other side, the generals who were out of town, Cheng Yaojin, Li Jing who returned to Anxi to protect the country, and Chai Shao on the southern island were also very energetic, because whether it was Cheng Yaojin or Chai Shao,
The only reason why he could not go back to Chang'an with Li Jing to have a meal with Li Er at this moment is that they all understood...
Mountain rain is coming, and the world will be in chaos!
The Tang Dynasty, Rome, and Arabia, these are the new Three Kingdoms in the new era.
And this time the Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony is obviously more exciting than the previous Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony on the land of China.
The reason is very simple. The Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony was due to the collapse of order in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the surging desires of the princes. In short, the whole thing was a pure disaster, resulting from a chain reaction of political failure. This was a pure bad thing.
But that is not the case now. The current situation is...
The world today is not caused by the collapse of order in a large empire.
On the contrary, all countries have quietly begun to accelerate their growth for various reasons, and also for various reasons, they are interacting more and more frequently. On the one hand, their interests are becoming more and more entangled, but mutual hostility is naturally growing. After all...
Everyone hopes that their home country can become the biggest beneficiary of this wave of the times!
But this time the "various reasons" were not the collapse of order in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the famine in the world that led to the spread of war.
On the contrary, this time's "various reasons" happened to be that all countries were gradually becoming more and more prosperous. Not to mention ferocious creatures like the Tang Dynasty and Rome, whether China went to sea with the "spirit of the Han envoys"
A heroic man who makes a strategy, or a Roman cavalry who immediately seeks wealth with a sword and a spear, they are all apex predators.
Even the Persian state, which is located at the three forks in the center of the world island, is constantly improving its national power due to the prosperity of maritime trade...
After the coup and the expulsion of her sister's clan from Persia, Dai Qisi didn't feel much pressure at first, but since she learned that her sister actually worked with the Tang Empire and was doing well... Dai Qisi also started to
Work quietly.
Good things in the world don't always happen if you exert your strength, but this is the trend of this era. As long as you sincerely work hard to govern, it is almost impossible for a king to not benefit from the tide of maritime trade and increase national strength.
Of course, for Dai Qisi's Persia and the Kushan Kingdom on the side... although the national power is strong, the foundation is not deep enough and the depth is not broad enough, the harm caused by sea trade is not without...
For example, Dai Qisi has discovered in recent years that prices in Persia seem to be getting weirdly cheaper.
In the past, a grain of gold could buy five baskets of wheat, but in recent years, it can actually buy seven baskets...
This strange phenomenon certainly attracted the attention of Dai Qisi. After dispatching troops to investigate, they found that the reason was that the gold and silver in Persia was decreasing... Of course, the subtlety and profoundness of this matter also made Dai Qisi
