Chapter 286: Mission
On the coast this morning, there was a lot of noise. The crown prince of the country of vicissitudes finally had the cheekiness to follow Liu Xinyu to the beach.
On the coast, boxes of precious medicinal materials and spiritual materials brought by the Praetorian Guards were loaded onto the giant ship in front. There are a lot of boxes, which are the accumulation of many years of the imperial treasury of the country of Qixia.
Many of the medicinal materials and spiritual materials produced in the country of Qixia have been exploited by the East in the past, but most of the precious ones have been left.
The world's resources are still relatively abundant, but all regions have a bias. The country of Qixia also has some precious medicinal materials, but it also lacks many adjuvants. If a medicinal herb wants to be refined into an elixir, it needs to be combined with other medicinal herbs. Otherwise, many medicinal herbs can only be sealed.
Ning Chengwu, the crown prince of the Land of Canglan, looked at the giant ship on the sea and was shocked, "This is the giant ship made of steel, are you really going to open up a route on the green sea of death?"
Liu Xinyu nodded and did not speak.
"Can I go over and have a look?"
Liu Xinyu shook her head slightly, but still didn't speak.
Ning Chengwu: ......
He found out that Liu Xinyu was full of vigilance against himself. After coming to the country of Qixia, Ning Chengwu took the opportunity of this cooperation and support, but he was able to inspect the country of Qixia. But it is difficult to get involved.
In particular, if he wants to know about the industrial and commercial class of the country of Qixia, the new state system and laws of the country of Qixia, etc., almost no one can ask. Especially in terms of industrial technology, the country of Qixia is almost stingy and does not even reveal a word.
Today, he finally saw the legendary steel giant, but he could only honestly stand next to Liu Xinyu, to be precise, standing one step lower next to Liu Xinyu. This made Ning Chengwu only hold his head high when he spoke.
Don't mention the taste in Ning Chengwu's heart. But when I turned my head and looked around, I found that everyone was one level lower than Liu Xinyu, and my heart was a lot more comfortable - Aha, the entire country of Qixia is standing at the feet of a woman!
Liu Xinyu is not ordinary, she lowered her head slightly and understood Ning Chengwu's thoughts, and she was a little disdainful in her heart. Hmph, the reason why I arranged it this way today is for you.
After Liu Xinyu and the palace guards, there were still a large number of audiences, some from the Ocean Group, some from the people, and so on. The great voyage requires the participation of the whole people, and Zhang Hao also took the initiative to invite everyone to visit.
This is just the beginning. In the future, there will be more people, and at that time, everyone will no longer stand, but shout!
Suddenly, there was laughter in the sky, and Zhang Hao saw his cheap master Mingxu Daoist and Liu Dingshan coming together, and the two flew directly to the Zhiyuan battleship. The two were followed by Chen Yansong.
Chen Yansong was still dressed as before, silently following behind the two without speaking. But it was obvious that this guy was also a little excited, and he flew to the deck and began to wander around, knocking and knocking.
A battleship of steel, this is an unprecedented miracle for all.
Captain Mingxu came to the bow of the ship, knocked on the railing, knocked on the turret, stomped on the deck, and then said to Liu Dingshan next to him with a proud face: "If someone told me in the past that I could make a ship out of iron, I would not believe it." But now, I'm still shocked. ”
Liu Dingshan rolled his eyes: "Look at your smug expression, it's going to turn into a waterfall." Anyway, this Zhiyuan was not built by you, what are you proud of!"
"Have you ever heard that one day is a teacher and all life is a father!"
"I'm not trying to use this reason to monopolize this Zhiyuan, right? I can tell you, this Zhiyuan battleship still has 20% of my shares!
Oh...... If you want to board the ship, you need my nod!"
"Go aside!" Mingxu Dao Chang laughed, "Of course I won't be so mean. However, Zhang Hao and I are now one, one with glory and one with loss. I became a god in the transformation period, and Zhang Hao benefited. In the same way, if Zhang Hao can open up the road to the sea, I will also benefit!
Now that I am also in the stage of transforming into a god, within the Xuanzhen Sect, I can also support Zhang Hao. ”
"It's pretty much the same!" Liu Dingshan said from Zhang Hao's point of view, "I'm really afraid that your Xuanzhen Sect will have a hot head and do something that you regret too much." I can tell you, for now, I fully support Zhang Hao. ”
"Rest assured, the Xuanzhen Sect also fully supports Zhang Hao. You may not know that just the day before yesterday, the Xiaoyao faction responded to the matter of Dingshan Dao Chief.
They drew the country of Langya to the past, completely cut off the sea passage of the western and northwest countries of the Fertile Land Continent, and also blocked the Xuanzhen Sect. ”
"Ah......" Liu Dingshan understood the general trend of the Fertile Earth Continent, and he was really shocked by Liu Dingshan's words, "The Loose Sect is trying to trap us." What about Lingyin Mountain?"
"Lingyin Mountain has not yet expressed its position for the time being. But with what I know about Lingyin Mountain, there is a great possibility that they will take advantage of the fire to rob. Hey, the world of cultivation, the law of the jungle. No amount of flowery rhetoric can hide this essence. ”
Liu Dingshan turned his head to look at the low-hanging artillery, thought for a moment and said, "You say, how about we go over this time and bombard the port of Langya Country?"
Daoist Mingxu was taken aback by Liu Dingshan's brain hole, he was more calm after all. After thinking about it, he still shook his head slightly: "The first time I traded, I think it should be stable." As long as the first transaction is successful, the future development will be smooth.
And when there are more steel giants in the future, we will fight from the sea!"
"It's me who is anxious. Liu Dingshan took a deep breath and said slowly, "In the future, we will form a fleet and dominate the Emerald Sea with the steel torrent!"
"Steel torrent...... You have to have a master to cooperate!" Mingxu Dao Chang sighed.
When Mingxu Daoist and Liu Dingshan were discussing, Chen Yansong stood aside coolly and didn't speak, it seemed that it was really an occupational disease - a guard.
Zhang Hao said this to Dugu Junjie at this time. Zhang Hao came to the side of Mingxu Daoist and said, "Master, it's about to set sail." ”
Daoist Mingxu nodded and asked Zhang Hao, "You also want to follow?"
Zhang Hao stood in front of the railing, looking at the sea, "Yes, you have to see it with your own eyes to know what the outside world is like and to determine how to go in the future." ”
By this time, the cargo had been loaded and the anchor had been pulled.
Dugu Junjie left the bow and walked towards the captain's room.
But at this moment, a female guard beside Liu Xinyu suddenly flew over, saying that she had something important to discuss with Zhang Hao, and she was the prince of the country of Canglan.
According to the female guards, Ning Chengwu, the prince of this Canglan Country, was also a little excited, he actually wanted Zhang Hao and the Zhiyuan battleship to bombard Qianlong Port from the sea, while Canglan Country attacked from the land, and everyone worked together to repel the defenders of Langya Country occupying Qianlong Port.
This seems like a good suggestion. But Zhang Hao thought about it, but refused.
"Why?" said the Mingxu Dao Chief. If Qianlong Harbor can be recaptured, then the Xuanzhen Sect will be able to obtain a port to go to sea, which is crucial.
Zhang Hao slowly explained: "Master, what we want to show to the outside world this time is a strong, peaceful, but communicative image. Our purpose this time is to open up sea lanes.
This time, if we encounter the challenge of the country of Langya, we can either fight 'passively' or attack Qianlong Harbor. But even so, we will try to fight alone and not align!
This time, we are not sailing for the sake of fighting. Rather, for the mission!
We are here to explore, to explore a path of life from the green sea of death!
That's the greatest thing!"
Daoist Mingxu carefully touched the meaning of these words, and had to nod.
And Liu Dingshan also agreed with Zhang Hao's words. "Yes, this time we are trying to forge a path of life from the green sea of death. We are exploring a new future for humanity, not infighting.
It's a great start, and it won't be tarnished!
Zhang Hao, I support you!"
At this time, Dugu Junjie roared: "Set sail!"
The order was given, and the giant ship began to roar. The three 100-millimeter guns in front of the giant ship suddenly pointed to the sky, and the next moment the flames erupted, and the three shells exploded at an altitude of several kilometers, blooming with brilliant light. Also, rolling thunder.
The cannonballs were fired, and the front of the giant ship suddenly sank half a meter, and the waves rolled around it, and the waves washed over the nearby cliffs and roared.
This sudden move startled many people. Only a few people who knew the plan in advance were calm.
Liu Xinyu looked up at the sky lightly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth. Then he looked down at Ning Chengwu, the prince of the Canglan Country, and said softly: "Ning Chengwu, what do you think of the Zhiyuan?"
Ning Chengwu withdrew his shocked eyes, looked at Liu Xinyu who was not the slightest shock, and a trace of admiration and self-shame flashed in his heart. He looked at the Zhiyuan, watched the Zhiyuan slowly accelerate, and had to say from the bottom of his heart: "Amazing!"
Liu Xinyu didn't speak again, but quietly watched as the Zhiyuan began to accelerate and slowly left the small port.
This time, the Zhiyuan carried a total of 211 people, except for Zhang Hao, Hou Shangzhuo and a few other technicians, the rest were all combatants. Including sailors, gunners, etc., and many of them are in the Jindan period and the Yuan infant stage.
Thanks to Dayang Group, Zhang Hao proudly recruited many masters, making up for the short development time and lack of masters in the Zhang family.
The giant ship slowly accelerated, pushing away layers of ripples on the surface of the sea, and the ripples slowly rose and fell, spreading to the end of the line of sight.
The morning waves were still a little noticeable, but the giant ship was like a mountain, thick and steady. Even if you just look at it, you can feel the power of steel. The rigid and rough lines and rows of huge rivets all show the power of industry.
At this time, the steel giant ship had been painted. However, only a few places such as the superstructure and railings were painted white. The rest remained in the true color of steel, black and gray.
The morning sun gradually rose, gilding this unprecedented steel battleship with golden brilliance.
In the golden light, the giant ship slowly accelerated and began to move south.
For the first time in recorded history, humanity has officially begun its own exploration in the open sea.
(Weakly ask, can you rest today?)
