Chapter 240

After I launched the water, I knew how stupid the decision was. The canal was no more than the sea. There were so many warships moving here and there to roll the sediment under the water. I couldn't see anything at all! There was no way to climb back to the shore again. In the surprised eyes of the local players around me, I opened the space door leading to mother earth. "ADINA, follow me! Ling! Keep an eye on the gate and don't let anyone in! " I don't want anyone to get into Mother Earth's temple because of curiosity!

After taking ADINA into the water again, let ADINA navigate with sonar, and directly let her present the sonar image in my brain, so that I can know the surrounding situation! Sediment also interferes with sonar, but the distance is so close, and the accuracy of ADINA's biological sonar is very high, I can barely see the three-dimensional scanning map of the bottom!

The wreck was not far in front of us. It looked not small, about half the length of the biling. We groped to the edge of the wreckage, and ADINA touched the hull with her hand and knocked. "Master, this is a metal boat!"

I touched it, too. "Yes, and it's a solid steel plate!" This is a real armored ship. It's not the same as the biling, a warship with wood inside and metal outside!

After the biling was towed away, the sediment was washed away quickly. Here is the channel connecting the two seas. The current speed is very fast. Without the mixing of warships, the water will be clear immediately! Finally, I can see the whole picture. It is indeed a armored ship, and its modeling is quite modern. It is an advanced modern warship! It seems that this is not a local ship. I thought I saw the brand flag on the boat! This is a French ship!

"Shall we go in and have a look?" ADINA suggested.

"Good!"

ADINA hugged me behind my back and swam me into the boat from the big hole in the boat. As a mermaid, ADINA went underwater faster than me! The ship sank only last night. There was no water and grass at all. The cabin was quite clean. After several rounds, we finally got to the bottom of the boat. To our surprise, the ship used thrusters! It's strange that the ship's shape is similar to modern warships. I wonder why I didn't see the sails just now. I understand!

In terms of underwater thruster, ADINA is an expert. A simple check on me said: "quite low-level propeller, power is not big, because the speed should not be fast! What's more, it doesn't seem to be waterproof. If the cabin is flooded, it will stop working! "

"It's OK. It's just junk!" I don't want other people to have the same level of propeller as us! "Let's go somewhere else!"

After checking all the cabins that we could enter, we found an ammunition depot. There were plenty of shells, but they were relatively backward! Found the fort on the deck, picked a relatively complete cannon to check, the gun seems to be more advanced than ours!

After studying the whole ship, the conclusion is: the structure and material technology of European warships are ahead of Asia, and they can build all metal warships that we can't build. Europeans also have an advantage in the manufacture of cannons. The guns on this ship are more advanced than mine. But Europeans are not advanced in everything. Europe's fire Yao power is not big enough, but the artillery is very advanced. The artillery technology in Asia is backward, but the shells are powerful! Two aspects: one is the balance. We should estimate the artillery power as much as the Europeans! Thruster technology should be our strong so far! If the propeller in this wreckage represents the level of European propulsion, then I think the speed of European warships should not be faster! With the above conclusion, I understand why Ashford asked me to buy fire Yao technology. The original problem is here!

After the study, I began to think about how to clear the obstacles. The ship is very large and has a metal hull. Although the shell is not as thick as that of the biling, it may be stronger than the biling! It's unrealistic to blow up such a ship. The only way is to tow it away! Fortunately, there is buoyancy in the water, so long as it does not leave the surface, the warship is not very heavy. He called down the three dragons and the little dragon girl and lifted up the wreckage with little effort. Translation of the warship to the Red Sea, find a deep water area to put down, easy to handle!

The repair of the biling is just a simple treatment. As long as it doesn't affect the navigation, anyway, the hole is underwater, so it doesn't affect the battle. Just bask in the moon tonight!

The fleet finally passed through the Suez Canal, and after entering the Mediterranean Sea, I scattered the pirate fleet. This is the birthplace of my pirate brothers. They all have many old units here. To disperse them is to find all the old ones. These pirates can greatly increase the strength of Naval Warfare!

There is nothing to do in the daytime today. I can only go offline to the base and continue to be familiar with B13 features. By 3:00 p.m., calculate the time, the fleet should be close to gibraltarian, go online! I appeared in the cabin and looked out through the porthole casually. I was shocked by the situation outside. There were many boats around the biling.

"Here you are Sumei suddenly runs in.

"What's going on?" I pointed to all kinds of ships out there. There are all kinds of boats around us, including many fishing boats!

"It's your little pirate brother who brought it back!""Boss!" Just then Rona came in.

"You brought it back?"

"Not all of them! Some of them are brought back by polar bears (polar bear is the new leader of the Russian Pirates)

"what are all these?"

"Last time we went to Asia for negotiation, we took all the elite out, and the rest were old women and children. It would be nice to find these boats!"

That's what Rona said! The last time they came out, they took all the elite away, and then they stayed in Asia to make trouble with the Japanese. Of course, they will not find any good fleet when they come back!

"But Rona suddenly continued, "we brought back something you like!"

"What?"

Rona took me out of the cabin to the cabin on the opposite side of the ship and pointed out, "that one!"

I followed her fingers and saw a wall! There is a silver wall outside the porthole of biling! I couldn't see clearly through the small porthole, so I ran to the deck. Now see clearly! Next to us is a huge floating object, which is said to be floating, mainly because it seems to have no power. In front of this silvery object are all our modified warships towing it forward! 500 warships towing a thing, you can imagine it's huge! From my point of view, this thing is just a floating island on the sea!

"This This This...! " Excited some stuttering! "What the hell is this?"

"Our booty!" Rona arrogant way: "this morning let us meet their own enemy - the squall pirates! I and the polar bear unite to destroy this regiment completely! It's really exciting to say that we and the squall pirate regiment have always been enemies, but the strength of both sides is equal, and there is no way to take advantage of it. On the contrary, we lost a lot of manpower in vain! This time, we just joined hands with the polar bear, and you helped us change the new artillery and propeller, and easily put the scum out of the wind! "

"How did it come from?"

"This is what the squadron found at our base. According to the prisoners, the Kingdom on the shore often sent troops to wipe out the pirate garrison recently, which made them uneasy. It happened that we went to Asia, and the squall pirates dominated the Mediterranean Sea and made a lot of profits. For long-term consideration, they decided to build a water city to take all their families to sea. So they spent all their savings and made this thing! "

"Sea city?" I looked at this thing again! "It is worthy of the name Although the Corvette is nearly three hundred meters in length, it is not as large as the Corvette! But next to this huge floating object, the biling is like an aircraft carrier, and a torpedo boat is parked next to it! "How big is this thing?"

"I don't know exactly how long it is. I'll go and ask the captured designer!"

"Well, hurry up!"

Soon the designer was caught. It was a NPC and a European. "Are you the designer of this thing?"

"Yes Although the man looked very gentle, but he was very brave. He broke away from the sailor behind and stood up. "Besides, don't call my baby 'this thing'! You can call her Noah

I'm dizzy! The legendary Noah's Ark doesn't refer to this one, does it? "This How long is Noah? "

"You mean structured data?"

"Yes

_____________________________________________________________

"It has a total length of 23108.6 meters, a width of 2607.9 meters, a draft of 297.7 meters when fully loaded, 207.1 meters out of the ship's side, 208 meters of the main control tower and 278 meters of the mast height."

Oh, my God! Is this a boat? Feel like an island! It's strange that it's called a sea city. It's not a big city in general!

It took me a long time to recover from my excitement. "What power does this thing use? Is it sail or oar? Or do you have thrusters? "

"The design is a combination of three kinds of power, but for the time being nothing has been installed! It's just an empty shell

"Empty shell?"

"There are no internal cabins, propellers, oars, sails, weapons and living quarters that were to be installed! Except for the outer shell, only the inner supporting frame is made, and there is no other thing! "

Such a good thing actually has nothing, I am a little angry, the tone of speech is inevitably some blunt: "why not pretend?"

As a result, the designer roared back with a louder voice than me: "it's not all because of you! If it hadn't been for your fleet's sudden attack, we would still be building it now. " His voice suddenly softened. "May I ask how you plan to settle Noah?"

"Of course I wish it could be done! But...! "

"That's good!" The designer suddenly planned my words. "As long as you are willing to pay, I am willing to continue to serve you and complete her!""What?" The designer's response was unexpected. "If I attack you, you don't hate me, but you help me build a boat?"

"Please find out one thing! I'm not a pirate! I'm luzo, Teuton's first ship designer! I helped pirates design ships because my design was not accepted by the state. During a voyage, the pirates attacked my ship. They even wanted to build Noah after they saw my plan. I had a way to fulfill my dream, and of course I would not give up, so I helped design and build Noah. I don't care who you are as long as you are willing to pay me to finish my work

So this designer is German! Why not be so crazy about technology! Real scientists are like this. They only care about whether their works are perfect or not. As for what other people do with this thing, they don't have to consider. Otherwise, the atomic bomb will not come out!

"How much does it cost to finish this thing?"

"I don't know. The pirates didn't ask! I can only list the required materials, price and labor cost, you can calculate it yourself

"Good!" I shook hands with him and then said to the first mate behind me, "take designer luzo to the VIP room for a rest."

After luzo left, Rona and I went to Noah. After we got up, we found that the steel monster was designed according to the battleship! In the middle of the whole hull is the superstructure of the ship, which is basically the base of the weapon platform. It seems that the degree of completion is quite high. As long as the gun is installed, it can be completed! I don't know how many guns this big ship needs to load! It's estimated that if it's full, he'll be able to pick a fleet from a ship!

Standing on the deck, I suddenly found that I also promised Ya not only to become a super Fort! Although the hull was designed according to the architectural style of the battleship, Noah was so huge that there were 400 meters wide flat decks on both sides of the central superstructure area! What can a horizontal deck of 400 meters wide and tens of thousands of meters long be used for? I don't have to explain it?

Although the superstructure let me see very satisfied, but entered the cabin after the total despair! Inside the tower are several beams. Standing on them, you can see from the top. Inside the hull, as luzo said, it's completely empty! There are some supporting structures in the huge hull, but the partitions between the cabins are not installed. You can see the stern from the bow. The whole ship is empty!

"Boss! Have you come up too? " Rice from the side jumped over. After a long time, everyone is here!

Rose came up and said, "what are you going to do with this?"

"Finish it

"I'll tell you in advance that it's not cheaper to build than Eisinger!"

"I know! But considering its future combat effectiveness, I decided to finish it

"In fact, it doesn't cost much to build it!" Sumei suddenly comes in from behind. "It was really expensive for you to build the biling. It was because you were totally dependent on the purchase, so it cost a lot of money, but now it is different! Luzo is free labor, material aisinger can produce, anyway, it is his own, as long as the cost can be calculated! Besides, the most wasteful shell part of this thing has been completed, and the rest of the project will not need too many things! As for labor! Are there enough skeletons in the misty army? "

"In this way, what I need to use is the material cost."

"More than material costs, of course!" Su Mei continued: "the most expensive one is probably cannons! It's a waste for a warship of this size to be fully equipped with guns, and the magic crystal cannon is too expensive. How many guns can you calculate for yourself? "

God! At the beginning, it has been a sky high price to install cannons on the biling. This time, it is not only more in quantity, but also all of them are magic crystal cannons. What should I do!

"In fact, there are ways to save money." Rose is worthy of studying economics. She is the best at business. "We can buy technology directly! We can buy a lot of big guns in the dark hall at a lower price, so that we can not have a lot of big guns designed by ourselves. I think the magic crystal cannon is similar to the electronic products sold outside now. The material cost is very low, but the technology is expensive! "

"Let's start with that! I'll talk about the rest later! "

"Purple sun! Come on out, we're in gibraltarian! " Chuang Wang suddenly called outside.

We ran out quickly, and when we got back to the biling, I took the telescope from the first mate and looked at the sea ahead. I can clearly see a large flash of warships appear in the channel ahead, it seems that this is the imperial fleet! "Chief officer! Stop the fleet and stand by. The biling will go alone

The fleet soon stopped and our bealing sailed alone. In front of the imperial fleet, there are two long snake arrays in order, which stop on the shore, stretching for dozens of kilometers! As the distance approached, I was able to see the whole of gibraltarian. According to the chart, it's called gibraltarian in the game. It hasn't changed its name, but the terrain seems to have changed. The coasts on both sides of the Mediterranean gradually closed here, and finally formed a channel only four or five kilometers wide at the mouth of the sea. The shores on both sides of the Strait are not beaches, but vertical cliffs, which rise 20 to 30 meters high and are completely flat at the top. This terrain is simply the best terrain to set up the fort, the vertical cliff can protect the fort from invasion, and the height of more than 20 meters creates a drop for the same fort, thus increasing the range.Now at this distance, I can see the silver cannons on both sides of the cliff without any help. It seems that many of them are magic crystal cannons! Such a terrifying terrain and the fort, not to mention our ships, even if it is more than twice, it will certainly not be able to rush through!

But the reason why I dare to go this way is to bet on how much the British see us! With the news I sent out in advance of the attack on Indonesia, the British should know our fighting capacity. Over the course of the day, they understood the whole thing. They should know that if they attack us, we will certainly fail, but the imperial fleet will also be transformed from the world's first fleet into a small fleet that can be bullied by most fleets at will! If we can't win the firepower, it's not a problem to pull some backers!

In front of the fleet, a warship not much smaller than the biling also opened, and the flag bearer said that the other side was an envoy ship! The advanced warship slowly drew up, and an authentic English Knight appeared in the bow. When the two ships came together, he stood on the side of the ship and held out his hand to me!

The two warships were about the same height. Now that we were close together, we could shake hands across the side of the ship.

"Hello, I'm ziri from China! This is my fleet

"Hello, I'm Bach, English. This is my imperial fleet. The guild belongs to imperial alliance

"Hello! Hello

The two of us started to be polite, and then Bach said let's go through and review his fleet! Although I was worried, I ordered the fleet to move forward. Anyway, it's always going to pass. It's a trap. I can't help it! But I believe that the British people should not want to fight with me, even if they hit us, they will not get any benefits! And now we have more assurance than at the beginning that the British didn't know Noah was empty. When Bach and I were courteous just now, he tried to talk to me many times. He was very careful about this big guy that he had never seen before! Anyway, I played Tai Chi with him. I didn't tell him what Noah was. I just kept hinting that this was our secret weapon! I believe that the British do not know the situation is not dare to open fire!

After my fleet began to advance, Bach's warships left the biling and went to the front to serve as a guide ship for us, and I quickly took time to make small moves! First of all, let ADINA go into the water to see if the mouth of gibraltarian is deep enough! Biling is nothing, but Noah's water intake is nearly 300 meters. You can't be careful! In addition, hurry to inform the back of everything as planned!
