Almighty System Great Master Qin

Chapter 67
"I'm going out to sea with you guys." Xiao Hong had been to Korea by boat before, so he wasn't seasick himself, but he had never been on this kind of ancient boat and wanted to experience it.

"Your Majesty, after the ship was built, it has not been in the sea yet, this..." Ji Shengjie said worriedly.

"It's all right, I trust you." Xiao Hong waved his hand nonchalantly, and even if something happened to the ship, he would be able to return safely with his skills.

Xiao Hong followed Zhong Lichang on a wheeled boat.

The wheel boat provided by the system to Xiao Hong is 24 meters long, nine meters wide, and eight meters high (including the mast), which can be fully loaded with 800 soldiers, with a load capacity of about [-] tons and a displacement of [-] tons. Currently the largest ship in the world.

The boat is smaller, but the hull is 19 meters, six meters wide and six meters high (including the mast), which can be fully loaded with 530 sergeants, with a load capacity of 130 tons and a displacement of 430 tons.

However, it is impossible for a wheel boat to accommodate [-] sergeants, because it also needs [-] sailors, food and other items.

"Departure" Zhong Lichang stood at the bow and shouted loudly.

Rumble

Several large ships slowly sailed out of the pier and headed for the sea.

In the beginning, none of the sergeants had any adverse reactions, but when the ship sailed into the ocean, the ship was hit by waves of wind and kept shaking up and down, and many sergeants began to experience seasickness.

Even Xiao Hong felt a little uncomfortable.

Xiao Hong firmly grasped the railing, trying to endure the discomfort in his heart.

"Your Majesty" Zhong Lichang saw Xiao Hong's face turned pale, and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, are you okay?"

"It's all right, how many sergeants are experiencing discomfort now?"

After exchanging semaphore, Zhongli Changhui reported: "Your Majesty, at present, there are sergeants on all ships experiencing discomfort, and the number of them is about 500."

"It's a lot of people." This time, three boats and two wheel boats were dispatched. There were a total of 100 sergeants, and 500 of them were seasick. This is not a small number.

"General Zhong"

"the end will be"

"After sailing for half an hour, return to the pier"

"Here, the general takes his orders." Zhongli often conveyed Xiao Hong's orders through flags.

Half an hour later, the fleet that went out to sea returned to the pier, and Xiao Hong had already recovered. Among the five hundred seasick soldiers, except for more than 100 people who had severe discomfort reactions, most of them persevered.

"General Zhong, look, I told you that sailing at sea is very different from rivers and lakes. Therefore, training must be strengthened, and all sergeants will be able to adapt to sailing at sea within two months."

"The end will understand"

"Well, I won't accompany you for the rest of the training, but I will stay here for a few days. If you have any questions, you can come and ask me."

"Well, I will understand in the end"

Xiao Hong looked at the giant crossbow placed on the wheel boat and fell into thinking. Logically speaking, the role of the giant crossbow at sea is actually very weak.

First of all, there are constant winds and waves on the sea, and the ship is always swaying, and the arrows of the giant crossbow are shot vertically, which will lead to poor accuracy.

And even if it hits the opponent's ship, if it can't cause the ship to leak, the damage is actually not that big.

Therefore, the artillery is the most suitable to be placed on the ship, and because the artillery does not take up much space, multiple artillery can be placed in layers on a warship to increase the hit rate.

In this era when there were no ironclad ships, it only took one blow to sink the opponent's warship.

Xiao Hong looked at the gunpowder worth 150 million meritorious deeds in the shopping mall, but he was also very jealous.

Gunpowder is now a Pandora's box for Daqin. Once the gunpowder is released, it will completely change the pattern of Daqin's foreign warfare.

This will be a more terrifying existence than Yunnan Baiyao. The production of Yunnan Baiyao has been set up in a secret place. No one except Qin Shihuang and Xiao Hong knows where it is.

And for this reason, Qin Shihuang also sent [-] troops to seal off the surrounding areas, patrolling day and night, and once suspicious people were found, they could be killed on the spot, and those who produced Baiyao dared to leave the village for half a step, they would also be killed on the spot.

Moreover, the emergence of gunpowder is also a threat to Xiao Hong. Currently, cold weapons cannot hurt Xiao Hong, but the same cannot be said for firearms derived from gunpowder.

"Should I change it or not?" Xiao Hong was very conflicted. Although his meritorious service is not enough now, when potatoes are promoted to the world, his meritorious service will increase exponentially. Within three months, he will have money to exchange for gunpowder. up.

In this way, Xiao Hong, who was in a tangle, stayed in Kuaiji County for ten days. During these ten days, Xiao Hong also helped Zhong Lichang solve many problems he didn't understand.

Moreover, Xiao Hong personally tried the giant crossbow on the sea surface, and it was exactly as he expected. s damage.

In the past few days, warships built by shipyards from various places have also gathered in Kuaiji County one after another. At this time, Kuaiji County already has ten boats and six wheel boats.

"General Zhong, train well. I'm about to leave. According to the current speed, His Majesty will be fighting abroad in at most two months. Don't lose the chain by then."

"The general understands, please rest assured Mr. Wu An and His Majesty" Zhong Lichang said with a bow.

"Okay, I naturally believe in General Zhong." Xiao Hong rode on his BMW, waved his hand, and left with a thousand soldiers.

"Farewell to Mr. Wu'an" Zhong Lichang and Ji Shengjie bowed to bid farewell to Xiao Hong.

Xiao Hong has been away from Xianyang for nearly two months, and it is time to return, otherwise Shihuang should be in a hurry.

After returning General Xiao Hong to the sheriff of Kuaiji County, he went to Xianyang alone again.

Although Xiao Hong was on his way all the time, he still saw the real life of many people.

Although most grassroots officials are good officials, there are still officials like Huangpu.

Except for Nanyang County and Xianyang, the people in other places are basically living a miserable life, and most people are struggling with life and death every day.

Although Daqin Mining has opened mines in many places, it has played a certain role in improving the lives of the people.

But at present, the main problem in Daqin is the lack of food. Daqin Mining can only pay more wages for the people who go to the mine to work, but there is nothing they can do to provide food.

Xiao Hong is not a god either, he can't conjure up a lot of food, although his fief has harvested a lot of potatoes, but because of tax relief.

The taxes paid by the fief to Xiao Hong were all used by him to offset the taxes of Nanyang County. Now he really has nothing but money.

"Well, all hope can only be pinned on the promotion of potatoes." Xiao Hong's figure cast a long shadow in the setting sun.
