- "I am just talking casually now, but theoretically speaking, as long as the ship is big enough, it will always float!"
Liu Deng smiled slightly but continued to struggle with them on this issue.
After all, they can¡¯t even build wooden ships at this time, let alone iron-clad ships of later generations.
Liu Deng himself also knew that it was unlikely that he would see the armored fleet in his lifetime.
But as long as you sow this seed, I believe that people in the future will eventually study it.
More than a thousand years in advance, the Han Empire entered the Age of Discovery. Thinking of this Liu Deng makes me tremble!
Even now, he is already imagining the scene of the Han's invincible fleet marching across Yunei.
On the vast ocean, giant ships hundreds of meters long discovered the New World, and then used the weapons in their hands to expand territory for the Han Empire.
Spread the light of the civilization of the Han Dynasty in all directions. In the whole world, it is the king's land, and on the shore of the land, it is the king's ministers.
Only then can these two sentences be truly realized!
Since the pirates of later generations were able to roam all over the world, why should the Han nation, which has a longer civilization than them, stay in a corner?
Liu Deng even wanted to see when the legendary founders of great empires led their armies across all directions with great ambition.
When they suddenly see a modern army armed to the teeth, what are their expressions like?
Presumably at that time, they will feel very surprised.
No matter how powerful the primitive bows and arrows are, can they still compete with the troops with modern weapons?
As for the Huns, Liu Deng didn't take them seriously.
The Huns did not take advantage of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty to directly attack the Han Dynasty. This was the biggest mistake made by the entire Xiongnu nation.
This may be their only chance to make a comeback, but they failed to grasp it.
The ambitious military minister Chanyu directly targeted the countries in the Western Regions.
Taking advantage of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty, he actually gathered an army again and began to sweep across the Western Regions.
It is said that when the countries in the Western Regions saw the forward of the Xiongnu army, they immediately began to surrender.
With this crazy killing, the Huns began to quickly recover. Their strength, which had been damaged in the war, has now been restored to some extent.
At least in terms of population resources, they have almost returned to the pre-war level.
Although, those people from the Western Regions are not very loyal to them.
However, compared to the people of the Han Dynasty, these people from the Western Regions were more adaptable to the nomadic life of the Huns.
" Moreover, the bandit theory they believed in and the gene of surrendering to the strong in their bones made those Huns just wave their riding whips to make them fight for the Huns through life and death.
Even after obtaining a brand-new alloy scimitar from the Western Regions, at this time, the military minister Shanyu is still dreaming of making a comeback and fighting in Chang'an.
Of course, after spending a lot of money to get a new scimitar from the Huns, Liu Deng simply threw the threat of the Huns out of the sky.
This thing is indeed good, but if you want to popularize it on a large scale, you can only rely on the Huns and barbarians from the Western Regions. You can't even think about it for more than ten or twenty years.
With more than ten or twenty years, will Liu Deng prepare them for that long?
"Shall we start?"
After dinner, Chen Boan was a little eager to try it. After all, at this time, after having new ideas, everyone could no longer bear it.
"Then I will wait and see!"
Liu Deng can¡¯t help with the actual work, so now he can only watch from the sidelines.
Although several of the master craftsmen are already old, they immediately took out their tools as soon as they regained their energy.
However, with Chen Boan here today, they can only attack!
The first thing to do when building a ship is naturally to build a model. Although Chen Boan is over seventy years old, the dexterity with which he moves his hands at this moment puts even Liu Deng to shame.
Several master craftsmen cut out one-inch thick boards from the huge wood, and then cut out several one-inch square wooden strips.
This is the keel of the model. The next few master craftsmen moved even faster. They gathered together and communicated quickly.
Then, several peopleThe division of labor began. Some people started to cut wooden boards, others started to cut wooden strips, and Chen Bo'an started to make mortise and tenon joints on the keel.
It only took less than an hour to build the keel of a three-foot-long ship model.
Liu Deng was surprised to find that they rarely used rulers throughout the process, but the parts of the model were able to be put together accurately.
The next step is to cover the boards. This work is much more troublesome than before. However, after all, this is making a model, and all the wooden boards used can be carved with curvatures.
Wait until midnight, with the busy work of these dozen master craftsmen, they actually made this specious model of the Ming Dynasty treasure ship!
"What a wonderful skill!"
Liu Deng was really satisfied with the model of the ship in front of him. The round and full hull, coupled with the three almost iconic masts, although it was just a model, he was already deeply impressed by it.
"What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Although it has not yet been painted with tung oil and the details have been carved, the main part of the ship can almost be said to be completed.
"How about trying to hang up the sail?"
Liu Deng also suddenly became interested.
Whether this works or not, you still need to put it into the water and try it. The hull of this ship is obviously much deeper than the hull of an ordinary building ship.
The deep V-shape at the bottom of the boat is like a sharp blade inserted deeply into the sea.
"The king is right, a boat can float!"
With the support of the keel, the generals already had a pretty good idea of ??the strength of the ship.
"At least at the same scale, it is impossible for any existing warship to be able to hit it.
If we meet on the sea, it doesn't even need to launch any attack, it will just drive straight past.
With the long impact angle on the tip and the support of the keel, it is enough to crush any opponent directly into the seabed.
Chen Boan directly rolled up his trouser legs, holding the model of the ship in his hand, then jumped into the pond next to him, and carefully let go of his hand.
That gentle movement was like stroking his most beloved woman, and the expression on his face was even more disgusting.
"We also need to add some sand and gravel to the bottom of the boat to increase the draft!"
After all, it was just a model of the ship, and the advantages of this pointed-bottomed ship still could not be brought into play. Seeing the ship floating and sinking in the water, Liu Deng suddenly said. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
