Chapter 985 Sailing to the Sea of Stars

Even so, Salmon Island is not a place where ordinary criminals want to go, because it is a place where prisoners are assassinated, and there are a large number of criminals living on Salmon Island, and dead people are also a common thing.

After all, more than 3,000 prisoners gathered here, and the dead became commonplace.

After Zhang Mao and Mu Xiu left Jingzhou, Cai Boyu hurried to Shamen Island with his men and horses, where they were to leave the land of the Great Song Dynasty by boat and go to the Wa Kingdom......

The sea breeze was blowing with a slight salty taste, Cai Boyu stood on the deck and looked at the waves that were constantly broken by the bow of the ship and sighed, he was one of the few officials in the Great Song Dynasty who had ever gone to sea, but now he still didn't know these ships in front of him.

If the original warships of the Great Song Dynasty were exquisite and beautiful, then these warships in front of them were behemoths in the sea, with three towering masts, each of which supported three huge sails, and several triangular sails extending from the mainmast to the bow.

Cai Boyu stood under the towering mast and squinted his eyes and looked up, only to feel that this huge sail and mast were much more than the warship, and the master craftsman Yao Wenshun who pulled over asked him: "This mast is so high and the sail is so big, will it bring the ship down......

Yao Wenshun waved his hand again and again and said: "No, no, this is a master craftsman in the Gewu Academy, and he has tried it in the water before, as long as he follows his method, the ship will definitely not be in danger of capsizing." ”

Cai Boli nodded, to be honest, it was the first time he had seen such a huge warship, which was bigger and taller than the iron-walled ploughshare beak warship and the sea falcon ship back then, in Cai Boli's eyes, the bigger and taller the warship, the better.

He was right.

After these two warships presented their drawings to Zhao Zhen in the Gewu Academy, Zhao Zhen was shocked, because these two warships had reached the design level hundreds of years later, and the craftsmen of the Gewu Academy must have confirmed it after experimenting with countless models.

Faced with the patterns of these two advanced warships of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Zhen called them the Great Song Shenzhou, and named them after Ling Xu'an Ji Zhiyuan and Lingfei Shunji, which was the name of the ancient heavenly boat, because these two warships had reached 100,000 ships!

Each battleship can carry more than 1,000 officers and soldiers, nearly 100 guns, and is also equipped with huge shooting rods, eight-bull crossbows, gunpowder shells, and fierce fire fuel tanks, which can be regarded as armed to the teeth, which can be called a miracle in the sea.

You must know that these warships are only body width, and the cabin is only two floors, if you can increase the longitudinal volume, it is simply a monster on the sea! I don't know how much bigger it is than the so-called Armada warship.

Zhao Zhen wrote down his own holy judgment with a stroke of the pen, and promoted the joint research and development of the prison and the Gewu Academy, and Zhao Zhen wanted to make the sea ships of the Great Song Dynasty lead the world for centuries!

Because he knew that with the continuation of time, the sea would become a battlefield for all countries to compete for interests, and the Great Song Dynasty would take control of this battlefield first!

Therefore, when Cai Boyu saw this unprecedented artillery sail warship, his frightened body trembled, even if he stood on the deck, he could still feel its horror and grandeur, and this sea ship could even compare to the feeling of the Daqing Hall in Tokyo.

There are more than two seagoing ships of the same size, and in the dock on the coast of Salmon Island, several other skeletons of these seagoing ships have already begun to be built. ”

The master craftsman frowned slightly and said, "Now that the fastest speed has been used, I'm afraid it will take about a year." ”

A year or so...... Compared to the huge warship, this number is nothing, Cai Boyu said: "Ten months, the imperial court will only give you ten months!" During these ten months, if you need anything, ask the officials to grant them if they are reasonable, and tell the prisoners who built the ships that if they can build them within ten months, the officials will give them amnesty! But if there is a thief and a slipper, he will be immediately beheaded and will be convicted of sitting! ”

The master's body trembled slightly, he knew what Cai Boyu meant, once he sat down, he would not be able to run away and follow the head to the ground, and then nodded respectfully: "The lower official obeys the order!" ”

Cai Boyu took out a small bright yellow holy decree and said: "Yao Wenshun, the superintendent of the sea ships on Shamen Island, receives the order!" ”

…………

Yao Wenshun stood on the cliff closest to the coast of Salmon Island, countless warships on the sea arched and guarded the two Shenzhou of the Great Song Dynasty, forming a magnificent picture in the sunset and slowly leaving, this face is magnificent, the momentum is magnificent, so that Yao Wenshun is numb, these Chinese Shenzhou is made by his own hands!

"How can such a naval army be invincible? Crisscrossing the four seas, cruising eight wildernesses invincible! Cai Boyu doesn't know what to do this time, with such a fleet, even if it is more than enough to slaughter one or two small countries! ”

Cai Boyu not only called two Shenzhou, but also called a large number of main warships of the wave-breaking naval army on Shamen Island, each warship can be said to be armed to the teeth, there is no opponent in naval warfare at all, if you want to go ashore, the guns on the ship can almost be disassembled, and the siege of the city is no longer a problem!

The warship of the Great Song Dynasty finally disappeared completely on the sea, and at the same time, the sunset slowly fell into the sea, the stars in the sky shimmered with a charming glow, and the moonlight shone on the sea, forming a different kind of feminine quiet.

At this time, Salmon Island fell into silence again, except for the large number of warships that disappeared, there was nothing unusual, and no one would notice it, because except for the prisoners who could not leave when they came, no one would come to Salmon Island, and no one would leave!

The starlight is shining, the moonlight is charming, shining on the undulating sea to form a beautiful picture, countless warships are slowly advancing on such a sea, Cai Boyu stood on the deck and looked into the distance and muttered: "Is this what the official family calls the sea of stars?" The end is beautiful and charming......"

"It's very rare for you to see it, like me, you are already tired of seeing the stars and the sea every day, and it is not as good as the braised meat, roast chicken, and wine in front of you!"

The greasy hand was on Cai Boyu's shoulder, and the fragrance of roast chicken wafted over with the sea breeze, Cai Boyu knocked off this hand in disgust and said: "You are also a sanitation officer of the official family, and you used to be a character in the city of Tokyo, why do you become this muddy appearance now, are you a weasel?" This is already the sixth chicken! ”

Rat Three screamed, "You said light! Since the official family moved the capital, instead of taking me away, they sent me to Salmon Island, where every day I see dead people, and they eat only enough food for a stomach. ”

"You should also know the will of the officials, so that you will not only suffer on Salmon Island, but have other priorities! Now that you've made it a success, it's time to show off your skills with me! ”

Rat San smiled: "This is natural, isn't it just to wait for you that a certain family has been guarding this Shamen Island for so many years?" This is ...... to the Wa Kingdom"

"It's not to go to the Wa Kingdom, but to go to the Liao Dynasty!"

Rat San was startled, and stiffly turned his head to the side to look at Cai Boyu in front of him: "What did you say?!" ”
