With a loud bang, broken wood flew everywhere.

The paddle-wheeler was holding a hook and crashed into the pirate ship in the middle. This was the first time Huang Gai used this technique. The force was not controlled. The casting force was too strong, and even the "Bronze Rei" broke out and cut the pirate ship in half. Even with the water-tight compartment, it could not stop the sea water from flooding. It quickly sank and stranded. A wave surging, leaving only the mast stubbornly extending out of the sea surface.

While the two ships were connected, Sima Lingcao from Henghai led the elite troops to fly onto the ship. He raised his sword and cut over a thief. The ship of Ji Kingdom was high, Feilu, and Jue's room was like a locust. It was escorted by Ling Cao and others.

Scandals and swept across the front deck of the paddle-wheel ship that crashed into the pirate ship in half. All the brave men rushed onto the enemy ship and fought with the pirates. The thieves followed Guan Cheng and broke into Yongnu City, leaving only the old and weak on the ship. The warriors led by Ling Cao were chopped over and overturned to the ground. They cut the flag and seized the ship.

Cleared the deck and crashed into the cabin. The soldiers in the cabin knelt on the ground and begged for surrender, and the battle ended immediately.

Then he put down the paddle boat and chased the pirates who were desperately swimming towards the Yongnushu Stove.

Apart from the pirate ship that was cut in half by the Henghai Captain's flagship, the rest of the ships were captured by the Ji State Navy.

Huang Gai took the lead and hit the enemy formation. Because of excessive force, after "Bronze Rejection" broke the body, the huge bow of the paddle ship squeezed in from the break. The huge horizontal impact force on both sides of the bow tore the entire ship into two pieces. It was like a seesaw with both ends overloaded. Under the influence of its own weight, it broke and sank into the seabed.

In fact, the function of "Bronze Rejection" is equivalent to a harpoon. After hitting into the hull, it is connected to the enemy ship. Our warriors can seize the ship with one blade.

Because the bow of the ship is "Bronze Rejected" above the water surface, even if it hits the enemy ship, the damaged part is still on the body of the ship, and the sea water will not flow backwards. If the bow of the ship is squeezed in together like a yellow gauge, how can it not last until it explodes?

Sea boats are the foundation of pirates' survival. These large ships have excellent materials and craftsmanship. Tows them back and for a little transformation, they will be of great use. The cost of building a new ship is much higher than that of renovating a ship. The key is that the baggage stolen goods in the cargo hold is also a huge sum of money.

It’s a pity that the shipwreck. Fortunately, it’s shallow water, and it’s not difficult to salvage the cargo in the cabin when the towboat arrives.

He washed away the remaining blood with clean water, and Ling Cao rushed to meet Huang Gai.

Huang Gai said, "I have asked the prisoners. The pirates' families are all in Chunyu Shui Fort. I will be able to reach Qingzhou for a few days. Do Sima dare to go with me?"

"Why don't you dare?" Ling Cao clasped his fists.

Huang Gai came lightly and was a general of Ji State. He was deeply trusted by King Ji State. Ji State was long from east to west and narrow from north to south. He was also facing the sea in the east. There were three thousand pirates, and there were tens of thousands of small families. They were all on the water, and they could be used as the lord.

He sent a paddle-wheeled battleship to chase and suppress the remaining enemies with many small boats. He also sent a clutch to Yongnu County first to report to his lord Liu Bei. When the Ji State fleet arrived, Huang Gai then rushed south and crossed the sea to Qingzhou.

When Liu Bei received the news, Huang Gai had already led his troops to set off. The pirates were destroyed, and only the elderly, weak, women and children were left in the camp. It was just right to go to plunder at this time. I guess enough wealth had been accumulated in the fort. Thinking of this, Liu Bei ordered the fleet of the agency to repair the damage to the pirate ship on the spot. Later, he rushed to the fort to transport the personnel's goods. He sent a message to the fort to send the Pingbo fort and sent a ship to meet him.

The pirates plundered caravans all day long and seized money. Now they have been raided by their lairs, which have been accumulated over the years, and have been wasted one day. When they return alone and witness the tragic situation in the fort, they must have cried blindly.

The Ji State Navy paddle ship is 36 zhang long, nine zhang per foot wide, seven 2 zhang high, five inches high, three floors of building, eight wheels, three masts in front and back, driven by animal power, hidden hooks and resist (corners). It can accommodate 500 soldiers and 500 stones of baggage. If it is loaded, it can be changed to a thousand stone merchant ship. The load is closely related to the structure of the hull and materials used. In fact, if it is simply based on space, this ship can accommodate tens of thousands of stones. However, the hull is not enough to support such weight. Just improve the process and replace it with stronger wood, the tens of stone sea ship is not a dream.

The paddle wheel bucket ship is eighteen zhang long, four zhang wide, five zhang high, and one foot high. It is set up on one floor, with six wheels in a row, and only one mast is set up, driven by animal power, without hooks and crossbows, which can accommodate 200 soldiers and 300 stones of baggage. Similarly, if the structure and materials are improved, this ship can also be equipped with tens of stones.

When shipbuilding nowadays, the technology is mostly inherited from the pre-Qin period. In addition to watertight compartments, techniques such as balanced rudders, keels, nail joints, and mortise joints have not yet appeared.

It was not until the "nail joint and mortise" process that the hull strength was greatly improved during the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The "hull shipbuilding method" of first setting the keel, then setting the water bottom plate, and then the cabin plate. The "hull shipbuilding method" of setting the ribs at the junction of the cabin plate and the outer plate did not appear until the Song Dynasty.

It is precisely because of the insufficient structural strength of the hull that the current "large load on the ship" is not possible to make reasonable use of the cabin to transport more personnel and materials.

At present, the most urgent shipbuilding process that needs to be upgraded is keel.

After several busy days, the thief corpses in Yongnu City were finally salvaged. After beheading, the headless corpses were piled up with red horse boats and sent out of the city to burn them. Seeing officials coming and looking for them, it was very hard. The residents in the city spontaneously went into the water to salvage them. While the corpses were not rotten, they were transported out of the city to burn. It was much less harmful than waiting for the corpses to swell and float out, polluting water bodies and causing plagues.

After watching it on the spot, Liu Bei immediately revised Zhong Yao's reconstruction plan. King Ji wanted to convert Yongnu City into a water city. Similar to Wuzhen in later generations: building houses on the river, deep houses and courtyards, heavy ridges and high eaves, quaint and beautiful.

Of course, nowadays, we like to build tall buildings. How can the low Wuzhen be in line with my aesthetic of "high is the most important" in the glorious Tianhan? These high-rise buildings should be like the Baihu water pavilions, all of which are five levels.

Once the channels are digging deep in the city, all old sea boats of each household can be repaired. The waterways in the city can be allowed to enter and exit by themselves. In this way, the marsh trees outside the city and the marsh trees are open and unobstructed, which is no different from chariots and horses.

The so-called seeing is real. Yongnu Shu is "wide, thousands of miles away". East and west are "wide", and north and south are "extensive". Broad refers to area. Looking at the real world, it is not as huge as Liu Bei thought. A thousand miles of large lakes refers to "a thousand miles around" rather than "a thousand miles away".

What Zhong Yao said in his memorial about "Thousand Miles of Whirlpool" is naturally the circumference.

There are hundreds of miles of city, each with a poldered field of 100 miles (50 miles radius), so it takes several cities. The only worry here is salt. Liu Bei has ordered people to dig the soil and see it, but the deep soil has not been salinized.

The reason is not difficult. If several rivers are washed and diluted day and night, there will be sea invasions, and the salt in the water will be quickly diluted and taken away. What's more, there are several rivers nearby that enter the sea, fresh water and sea water are mixed, and the salt content is quite low. It is suitable for farming. This place is very different from the low-lying terrain and the sea water cannot be discharged in time, and it will become stains after a long time.

Just wait for the six hundred miles of the court to arrive at the official documents and all the Qianliu Shous belong to Ji Kingdom. The Qianli pier that Zhong Yao yearned for will soon be realized.

When the Linxiang Municipal Fleet set off from Dali City and arrived at the outer sea. Then along the underground river in the stoop, headed up the river and sailed into the city. The grand construction was launched. As the Yongnu fisherman who had lived here for a long time, how could he not understand his own stoop? He was wary before and was blocked by Wu Zhu, so he dared not tell him the truth. Now that his heart is completely resolved, the people's hearts are attached to him. How can he hide his own private affairs? This reveals the water feelings in the thousands of miles of Yongnu shovel, no matter how big or small, it is.

Liu Bei was overjoyed. He was determined to be good at water and could follow the map and found that the journey was smooth.

What are you waiting for?
