Chapter 576

The scene in front of me.

For them, it was too shocking.

Not to mention soldiers who have been inland and have seen small sails at most, even if they have been to the coast and seen naval warships, they can't imagine the scene in front of them.

Big again!

And long!

High again!

It doesn't look like it's made of wood, and it's very impactful.

In front of such a giant beast, people are really too small, and it is very strange. This ship has no sails, but it can sail on the sea, it is incredible!

"alright!"

The officer gave a loud shout.

"keep going."

Only then did the soldiers regain their senses and keep up with the pace.

subsequently.

Just like just now, this small section of road was blocked many times. When I turned over the hillside and went downhill, my eyes looked at the huge ship.

surprise!

praise!

And endless curiosity.

. . .

half an hour later.

When we came to the place where we were stationed, there was a distance from the coast, but we could still see the giant beasts on the coast from a distance. The officer on the way didn't explain much.

Just said something: do more things, ask less questions.

It's noon.

Start eating.

It's all dry food, and it will be eaten soon.

Everyone also briefly familiarized themselves with the surrounding environment. From here to the pier, the terrain is slanted downwards, the slope is not big, and the land is not completely barren.

There is some vegetation, but no big trees, apparently, just the surface layer of soil with a little fertility.

A small river flows from a looming mountain range in the distance.

Not much water.

But enough for daily use.

Simply rest.

gather!

Come to the shore.

As a deep-water port, it is indeed deep enough. The difference between the shore and the sea level is as high as two floors. Generally, ships dock here, and it is difficult for people to come up.

But the giant beast in front of him is far above sea level.

"Crack! Crack!"

Just as he was thinking about how to get up, a voice sounded.

Let's take a look.

The ship's waist was split and lowered like a ditch gate. There were not just one, but a full twenty openings. After laying flat, it could be seen that the section was made of steel.

They all clicked their tongues, it was really a steel ship.

this......

It really.....did it!

Steel shipbuilding is not a new theory, and is even quite old.

after all.

In daily life, an iron pot can also float on the river. It can be said that not long after the birth of the iron pot, steel shipbuilding is not a new theory.

It just never materialized.

One, output.

Second, processing.

Three, motivation.

In short.

For thousands of years, people have been trying to solve it, but no one has done it.

now.

I actually saw an iron ship sailing on the sea without sails.

In an instant, many people thought of electric fans, which can generate power by rotation, which has become very popular recently.

Furthermore, many soldiers with active minds thought of Zhengyuan Company.

Suddenly, I was shocked.

"..."

I can't believe this guess, but if I want to explain the scene in front of me, I really can't think of other possibilities.

For a moment, a trace of horror flashed in the eyes of many soldiers.

I heard that His Majesty and Nanqing are very close, but I have never heard of how much it is involved with Zhengyuan Company, and everything in front of me, if it is not a huge relationship, how can I explain it?

If there is any involvement.

Recalling everything that happened to the Quartet forces from the beginning of Zhengyuan Company's fortune to the present...Thinking carefully, I am terrified! The kind that shudders the soul.

Take a deep breath.

Just think about it.

Never talk about it, otherwise, it will kill people.

. . .

boom!

The huge gate landed.

"Follow!"

The officer went up first, and the soldiers came back to their senses, followed closely behind, and entered the cabin, only to see densely packed objects, most of which they didn't recognize at all.

"Move the wheelbarrow parts down first."

"These."

"These."

"And these, assemble below."

"..."

There are many people and strong strength, and soon, the parts of the 5,000 wheelbarrows were moved down. Since the army already had some, the soldiers also knew how to assemble them.

Simple structure.

quite skilled.

Then, the next moving project.

Um?

The parts are fairly familiar, it's just... isn't it a little too big?

The body shape is based on the heavy-duty carriage, lengthened, widened, and heightened, and the tires are more than half the height of a person. Can't all war horses be changed into pack horses?

with doubts.

Start assembling.

After a while, more than 20 super-long 'carriages' were assembled.

Looking at the finished product, everyone was really worried about their horses.

Will it be scrapped?

"The bag inside, load this car!"

The chief gave an order again, and everyone had to obey.

Good weight!

The inside is like sand, one layer, three layers, five layers.

"Sir, you can't stack anymore, the horse can't move."

"I don't need a horse."

finished.

In the shocked eyes of the soldiers.

hum~

hum~

Looking along the sound, I saw a big eight-wheeled guy coming out of the boat. The tires were very big. It looked like the whole thing was made of steel. The height of two people was about two.

The key is that it moves by itself, and only one person operates on it.

Wearing different clothes, I think they are the staff on the ship.

Forehead!

Looking at the ship in front of him again, it didn't seem too difficult to accept.

ten minutes later.

When watching that object pull more than 20 flatbed trucks spliced ​​together and drive to the distant camp, the soldiers' cognition was subverted again.

Too strong, at least the pull of a hundred horses.

"Don't stand still."

"Continue to deliver the goods."

Seeing the urging of the officer, the soldiers got busy again.

This time, with great drive.

Because everyone knows that there is such a thing, how much effort can be saved, and the dock construction materials are piled up nearby, and a wheelbarrow is enough.

For a while, I was very busy.

It was not uninstalled until dark.

. . .

the next day.

morning.

Keep busy, not at the pier, but at the camp. Before building the pier, at least repair the place where you live. The first step is to repair the wall.

clang!

clang!

A steel drill was driven into the ground, and several soldiers stepped forward to dig.

The groove was laid soon, cross-shaped, half a meter deep, and it was said that it was a permanent building, and it would be used for decades in the future, so some steel bars were placed inside.

Distressed!

It's steel, and it's of excellent quality.

When it comes to forging weapons, one is an excellent weapon.

But now, it is too extravagant to use it directly to build a house!

subsequently.

Watching the brothers in the next process pouring the so-called "concrete" on it, my heart trembled. Just throwing it into the soil like this, how much of it is there?

Then, he looked at the pouring material again.

This thing was mentioned during the training after dinner last night.

Condensation.

It is very hard after solidification. I made it last night, but I could only cut a little bit of debris when I chopped it with a knife this morning.

For a moment, everyone thought of its military use.

The plasticity is simply unreasonable!

. . .

It's been a busy morning.

With the efforts of nearly 10,000 soldiers, the plinth of the wall was finished. After lunch, they took a rest and continued to work, but the diversion began.

Partial installation of fences.

Part of it began to dig holes, saying that it was the underground pipe network and the foundation of the house.

Part of the road construction began.

In short.

The whole camp gradually changed.

That big guy, worth hundreds of horses, was transporting gravel back and forth. God knows how the empire bought the gravel machinery from Zhengyuan Company.

Once the mountain exploded, there was no need for people to knock on the stone, it was directly broken.

Then send it to the lowest reaches of the river for washing.

After working hard for a while, I took out the water bottle I had just issued and took a sip.

Cool!

This thing is much better than the animal skin water bag, and now everyone has one.

The water is also very clean. The water is taken from the upper reaches of the river, and after passing through a filtering device, it becomes very clear, just like spring water, with a little sweetness.
