With the advent of spring, the sea breeze on the inner sea of the king is finally no longer so biting, and many fishing boats that have not been affected by the war between the great empire and the central continent have gradually begun to go to sea, and in the various regions of the king continent, whether it is not affected by the war between several major forces, or it is affected, or the people in the territory between several major warring forces, they have begun to prepare for spring ploughing.

At the same time, as one of the two fleets that escaped from the battlefield in the Western Regions of the Central Continent, the fleet led by Orso arrived near an uninhabited island group in the King's Inland Sea after evacuating from the battle zone: because one of the previous fleets of this fleet was to sink a fleet anchored at the junction of the western regions of the Central Continent and the southern regions of the Central Continent, and secondly, due to the convergence of another silver Pegasus fleet, which was extremely famous among the many fleets on which the sun never sets, to pursue the other fleet, Therefore, the fleet led by Orso took a farther time to assemble than expected, but the speed of the Xiyi fleet was also much longer than previously expected, so the slower than expected assembly speed of the fleet did not have any effect.

"Lord Maori, you're here!" After seeing the hair roots beginning to turn gray on the new Nippon Maru, and asked the Saiyi sailors on the Nippon Maru to use the pedal to connect the Giant Whale-class Hawker Battleship with the Nippon Maru, Orso, who was the captain of the Second Fleet of the Inland Sea, the king of the sun, immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully to him and said (Maori Yuan is not only a naval captain, but also one of the two foreign princes of the Sunset Empire, Prince Xiyi, who is one of the two foreign princes of the Sunset Empire, is one level higher than Orso in terms of status and rights, In such a situation, of course, Orso should show enough respect for him).

"General Orso, although I have never had the opportunity to meet you before, I have often heard of your reputation from your old friend, General Soley. It's better to see than to hear, and you can still have such a spirit when you see the old general today, this is really a blessing for our great empire on which the sun never sets. ”

"Where, where, Your Excellency Maori, you are serious." After exchanging a few polite words with Maoriyuan, according to the rigorous style of the officers on which the sun never sets, Orso immediately shifted the topic of discussion between the two to the point: "Then Your Excellency Maori, can you hand over Sun Linmian to you, and tell me what I need to complete with you next?" ”

"Of course." Mao Liyuan smiled and said, "But before that, I would like to ask Your Excellency Orso to be patient, although our goal has already set off, but with our excellent sailors, we will definitely be able to reach the designated position before it reaches the designated position." Get to the designated position first, and General Orso, if I'm not mistaken, Sun Linmian asked you to learn about the situation of our Xinxiyi battleship before taking action, I think you shouldn't have forgotten about this, and General Orso. In this battle, I only exist as a deputy captain to assist you, and you are the one who really directs the battle. As a qualified captain, of course, you must understand the capabilities of the warship in your hands. I mean, Lord Orso, you should be able to understand what we're going to do next, right? ”

"I understand Lord Maori." Orso nodded earnestly.

"What? And call me Lord Maori? Mao Liyuan said with a smile on his face.

"Then Vice-Captain Maori, please lead me to understand the combat capabilities of the New Xiyi Fleet." Afterwards, Orso left the whale-class Hawkgar battleship he had been aboard and began to visit the flagship of the Saiyi fleet, the New Nippon Maru, and the various types of warships in the Saiyi fleet.

"Because His Majesty Sun Lin Mian mobilized all the production lines for the production of No. 2 artillery to the vicinity of the Lower Maginot Line (the so-called mobilization here refers to the mobilization of all the Sunset artillery craftsmen who could cast the No. 2 gun in the Great Empire before the Lower Maginot Line. It is not that the equipment for casting artillery was mobilized before the Lower Maginot Line), so although our Xiyi fleet is now equipped with artillery with all the guns on the New Delhi Peninsula with the artillery production line, except for the guns equipped with the new Nippon Maru, which are all No. 2 guns, the rest of the guns, including the Daian otaku ships, are equipped with No. 1 guns. If this is bad news, then the good news is that our Xiyi battleships are equipped with No. 1 guns except for those artillery warships that do not need to be equipped, and because our Xiyi fleet learned from Sun Linmian that your fleet is currently extremely short of artillery after the artillery is distributed, so this time we not only brought the artillery that the Xiqin fleet needs, but also the artillery you need. When the new Nippon Maru battleship, led by Mori Motosa, began to move towards the natural harbor and beach in the Nameless Islands one after another, Mori Mototo, pointing to the inside of the ships in the Oyataku ships.

"In addition, after our Western Qin Fleet's Da'an Mansion once again absorbed the wood and stone technique given to us by the Western Qin Empire, our Sunset Empire's Paddle Wheel Technique has once again grown like a fly, and in addition, because the steam engine technique mastered by Mo Forging has been simplified after we have cracked it one by one, so that our shipwrights can combine this technique with the Paddlewheel Technique, so now our Sunset Empire's Xiyi Fleet can not only increase its average movement speed by more than 20% in terms of average movement speed, And if necessary, we can have the soldiers inside the ship burn coal to make the steam engine fully operational, so that the movement speed of our Xiyi warship can be increased by more than 10% again. ”

This is really exciting news, I didn't expect that the sun never sets on the navy will also use the steam engine one day. After hearing Maori Yuan's introduction, Orso said excitedly: "Then Maori Vice Captain, do you think that the warships of our regular navy will also be equipped with this kind of equipment that can supply the speed of the warship?" ”

"I don't think it's very likely." Mao Liyuan thought for a while and said: "First of all, the power source for the regular warships of our Sunset Empire to sail is the sail, not the paddle wheel device, even if we can install the steam engine, in this case, the power from the steam engine cannot be transmitted to the sails, so installing the steam engine on the regular warship of the Sunset Empire is in addition to increasing the weight of the regular warship of our Sunset Empire." It is simply impossible to give us any help from the regular warships of the Great Empire on which the sun never sets. ”

"Huh? Is this the so-called improved version of the Thousand Fire Ship? I think this thing was called an explosion ship, huh? At this moment, Orso, who was located above the new Nippon Maru, suddenly focused his eyes on a small ship with a golden lion flag and very similar in shape to the Xiyi warship Thousand Fires Ship located below the Daan Mansion Ship and said, "This thing seems to be no different from the Thousand Fires Ship?" Even the Greek firethrower is the same for the line of defense? ”

"That's because Captain Orso didn't take a closer look at the bombing of this fort." Mao Liyuan smiled and said: "First of all, Captain Orso, you first pay attention to the Greek fire jet device of this explosive ship, if you look closely, you will find that most of the Greek fire jet devices of the explosive ship are very old, this is because the explosion ships are almost disposable warships, so there is no need to be equipped with a better Greek fire jet device for a period of time, in fact, under normal circumstances, the bombing ship only needs to ensure that the Greek fire jet device can be used once under normal circumstances; Secondly, Captain Orso, have you noticed that the stern of these exploding ships is sealed with strips of cloth and planks to form a sealed packet? These things may be very inconspicuous, but this thing is indeed where the real power of the explosive ship lies - there is enough black powder in it that can directly blow a hole in the battleship of the Dinghai, and if the target is any kind of medium warship, as long as the side is blown up by the power generated by this explosive ship, in most cases, these medium warships will only be blown in two. Even if they hadn't been blown in two, the keels of these medium-sized battleships would have been fatally damaged. ”

"What? How powerful could it be? Orso said with a look of surprise. Immediately, he asked Mao Liyuan with a somewhat ugly face: "Then the explosion ship can produce such terrifying power in a short period of time." Aren't these Xiyi sailors on the bombing ship ............"

"Captain Orso can rest assured on this, we will never let the innocent sun never set on him to die." Mao Liyuan seemed to know Orso's thoughts, and immediately after he finished speaking, he said: "Most of the Xiyi people who control this kind of one-time warship are members of the kamikaze, Your Excellency Orso, I think you have been stationed in the northwest waters of the Central Continent before this, and you should have heard about the situation of the kamikaze, right?" ”

"Of course, any force that threatens the peace within the Great Empire on which the sun never sets. Those of us who are the guardians of the Sunset Empire may not know about the members of the kamikaze, and in fact, if I am not mistaken, any of our high-ranking officers in the Sunset Empire have known about this team through the intelligence system enjoyed by the high-ranking officers of Sunset............ In this case, then all the Xiyi soldiers who control the existence of the exploding ships in the Xiyi fleet. Are they all members of the kamikaze? ”

"To be precise, whether it is a thousand fire ships or exploding ships, the Xiyi sailors are now members of the kamikaze drones, after all, this kind of military position with a mortality rate of more than 70%, as long as you are not a madman, you must not choose to become the crew of a thousand fire ships or explosive ships in the Xiyi naval army."

"Really? That's it, anyway, this is done for the sake of the great empire on which the sun never sets, and for the great empire on which the sun never sets, it is acceptable to pay as much sacrifice as possible. After a moment of silence, Orso sighed.

Rock Turtle Battleship: This is a kind of heavy warship that is more strange than the Sharp Knife Warship among the various warships of the Griffin Empire, its hull is like a huge oval wooden hull floating on the water, the height is not very high, and the draft is very deep, although this is mainly caused by the facilities above the surface deck of the battleship, but in any case it cannot be denied that the lower body of the Rock Turtle Warship is low and occupies a large sea area in the water, As a result, the Rock Turtle Battleship was not only unable to make holes in the inner deck surface on both sides of the hull like many ships, but then arranged ballistas and other objects, and this was only one of the three strange things about the Rock Turtle Battleship; As the second strange thing about the Rock Turtle Battleship, that is, the iron turtle shell of the Rock Turtle Battleship, a turtle shell built from the surface deck of the Rock Turtle Battleship, and finally wrapping the surface of the Rock Turtle Battleship, with an average thickness of 1 cm and many gaps or iron windows at the junction, this strange turtle shell was associated with the hull of the Rock Turtle Battleship when it was built with the hull of the Rock Turtle Battleship, which made it so that when the boulder hit the surface of the Rock Turtle Battleship, the force transmitted was not borne by the battleship but by the seawater. It's like you put a piece of wood on the surface of the water and press it with your fingers, no matter how hard you use it. The wood itself does not hurt in any way; As for the most strange point, that is, the power of the rock turtle battleship; The source is actually the 20 pairs of giant oars installed in the crevices of the Rock Turtle Battleship, of course, if you look at the size of the Rock Turtle Battleship, then this strange thing can be understood, and the Rock Turtle Battleship is worthy of his name here: turtle-like defense, turtle-like steering ability, plus hard defense like a turtle shell. Of course, although the Rock Turtle Battleship is extremely strange, the Rock Turtle Battleship can provide extremely effective help and variable use on the battlefield, especially in naval combat tactics: the combat weapons of the Rock Turtle Battleship are also those semi-mechanized crossbows called poisonous bee crossbows, and because the turtle shell and hull are built together, the Rock Turtle Battleship is extremely powerful in terms of firepower. This is not only because the Rock Turtle Battleship is fully equipped with 60 poisonous bee crossbows, but more importantly, the oval hull design of the Rock Turtle Battleship makes it impossible to strike at the enemy except for the bow of the Rock Turtle Battleship, so the Rock Turtle Battleship can also be said to be an enlarged and strengthened version of the Arrow Castle Ship; In addition, the bow part of the Rock Turtle battleship was a dragon-shaped head with a special hydraulic jet. Although the bow of the ship cannot shoot Greek fire, it can shoot smoke and other things. In addition, the Rock Turtle Battleship is large enough because of the sound of the ship. Therefore, under certain circumstances, it is possible to make a cameo appearance as a transport ship, so it is better to say that the Rock Turtle Battleship is a heavy armed support transport ship than a heavy battleship.

Gryphon Battleship: A heavy battleship with a huge hull, the overall shape is an inverted trapezoidal rather than a curved warship like the Sunset Battleship, although this kind of griffin Great Empire heavy battleship called Griffin does not have the iron head of the medium and medium warships of the Holy Light Empire, but due to its selection of materials, it chooses a relatively rare amount of hard wood. Therefore, although the griffin battleship is a wooden-hulled battleship, its body structure and shell hardness are worse than the bow of the Holy Light Empire, but the griffin warship is much stronger than the Holy Light ship of the Holy Light Empire on the whole. For example, they all have 6 sails, and the inside of the hull has 3 decks as storage for war equipment, etc., and the griffin battleship is different from several other powerful heavy warships, the crossbow equipped on the griffin warship is a semi-mechanized ballista like a poisonous scorpion crossbow, and the 3-shot mechanical crossbow placed in front of and behind the outer deck of the griffin warship is not the 3-shot mechanical crossbow of the Holy Bright Empire, but unique to the Holy Light Empire, after all the conveyors are assembled, as long as one sailor adjusts the angle and controls the launcher, In addition, it is worth mentioning that the head of the griffin battleship is the bow of the knife battleship, and the head is wrapped in a heavy iron plate, in addition to the sharp and terrifying ramming angle hidden underwater, if the battleship can't open the side of the ship to expose the side of the ship to the griffin battleship moving at full speed (the griffon battleship can reduce the main force of air because of the design of the bow, Therefore, in terms of movement speed, it is between the movement speed of ordinary medium ships and the movement speed of heavy ships), even the Hawker Weighted Class A battleship will be smashed in two by it, and the Whale-class Hawkgar battleship may survive, but the keel cannot be saved.

Wave Breaker Battleship: In fact, it is a knockoff of the Divine Light Empire's Dinghai Battleship, which is a battleship produced after the Holy Light Empire's side built the Dinghai Battleship, and because it does not have the core skills of the Dinghai Battleship in terms of volume, its volume is much smaller than that of the Divine Light Empire's Dinghai Battleship, but the larger the volume of this type of battleship, the increase is only the load, and the reason why the Dinghai Battleship is so big, To this day, in the eyes of many people, it is just to make the Staff of Judgment work on it, so there are also many people who think that the strength of the Seabreaker Battleship lies in its possession of a monster cannon that covers the shame of a cannon, and the reason why it is said is because in addition to being able to operate the "Staff of Judgment" on it, the Seabreaker Battleship is inferior to the Wavebreaker Battleship in terms of movement speed, armor ability, and firepower, after all, the Wavebreaker Battleship is equipped with semi-mechanized poison bee crossbows, counterweight trebuchets, etc., However, the Seamaster warships used more common ballistas and counterweight trebuchets, and even the so-called three-shot crossbow was not as penetrating as the Poison Bee crossbow.
