Chapter 301 The advent of the treasure ship, the shocked Yingzheng
In the 38th year of the first emperor, September [-]th, the Double Ninth Festival.
Sanghai City, Daqin Royal Shipyard.
People from all counties across the country came to Sanghai early because they wanted to participate in the launch of the Great Qin Treasure Ship and the first naval parade of the Great Qin Navy.
With the drive of sea trade to Daqin's economy and the continuous publicity, the people of the whole Daqin know the huge benefits of sea trade, and the enthusiasm for opening the sea is also increasing.
There are even many people who plan to come to Sanghai City to watch the ship review ceremony at sea first, and then take a sea boat to Liaodong to participate in the great development of Liaodong.
One by one, the people all had expressions of infinite longing on their faces.
Although the sea breeze was a bit cold, the people who came to participate in the ship review had already put on autumn clothes, and the severe cold was nothing to them.
There were hundreds of thousands of people standing on the side of the pier, everyone was looking forward to it, waiting for the moment when the boat would open and the super battleship would reveal its true colors.
How many legendary sea giants are there, is it really like a small city, whether such a huge warship can float on the sea, how to drive on the sea, how fast it can be, etc., are all the common people talk about. topic for a long time.
Now the answers to these questions can finally be revealed.
Among the waiting audience, there were not only the elated Daqin people, but also the envoys from various countries who were in a state of anxiety and anxiety.
Especially the Roman envoys who have been in Daqin for a long time but have never been able to see Ying Yu, they are even more trembling at this time.
As a country whose capital is right by the sea, Rome is well aware of the importance of sea power.
The real rise of Rome also began after it seized the command of the Mediterranean Sea from Carthage.
But now, Great Qin, which made Rome fearful, has made such an astonishing breakthrough in the navy, which makes the Romans sleepless at night.
At this time, Ying Zheng and all the important ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty had followed Ying Yu to the shipyard.
As soon as they entered the dock, Ying Zheng and a group of important officials couldn't help but gasped.
The original [-]-ton Wuyalou ship had amazed Ying Zheng and the others, and they repeatedly lamented the great breakthrough in Daqin shipbuilding.
But the impact and shock brought by the super giant in front of him is countless times greater than that of the five-toothed ship.
It is seventy feet long (one foot in Daqin is 2.3 meters), thirty feet wide, and twenty feet high together with the mast. Just the majestic momentum of the mountain can make people shudder.
Such a giant will definitely make the enemy frightened, enough to stand in the sea!
Even though he was prepared in his heart, after actually seeing the treasure ship, Manchao Wenwu was still stunned and speechless for a long time.
After a long time, everyone came back to their senses, amazed again and again.
"How did such a behemoth be built?"
"It's not an exaggeration to say that such an amazing ship is a city on the sea, right? This was really built by me, Daqin? Am I dreaming?"
"This giant ship is fine in this dock. If it is launched into the water, will it sink directly because it is too heavy?"
"How could it sink, His Royal Highness will never let this happen!"
A group of civil and military ministers, like Grandma Wenliu entering the Grand View Garden, were dumbfounded and exclaimed again and again.
Ying Yu smiled slightly and waved his hand.
The craftsmen who had already prepared shouted slogans in unison, pulled the pulley block hard, and opened the sluice gate of the dock.
With the influx of sea water, the dock that was originally lower than the sea level was gradually filled, and the huge super battleship gradually floated up.
This scene once again made everyone's eyes widen in surprise.
The eyesight of all the officials is not bad, so they can all see that this huge super battleship has sufficient buoyancy and is rising with the sea water little by little, very stable.
Although such a huge ship does not have any superfluous exaggeration, it gives people a mountain-like majesty and arrogance.
"This Great Qin Treasure Ship, combined with the most advanced technology of my Great Qin, is not only big enough, but also strong enough.
It is equipped with the most advanced catapults and three-bow bed crossbows, which are enough to sink the enemy directly at a distance of hundreds of feet.
And the opponent's crossbow arrows can't penetrate the steel armor of our Great Qin Treasure Ship at all. "
Ying Yu, who was acting as a temporary narrator, introduced to Ying Zheng and others in a loud voice:
"The displacement of the Daqin treasure ship is six times that of the Wuyalou ship, and more than [-] catapults and three-bow crossbows can be installed on it at the same time!"
"Six times that of the five-tooth giant ship!"
"Five hundred long-range attack weapons!"
The eyes of Ying Zheng and others were full of shock
You know, the previous five-tooth giant ship was the largest warship in the world.
At the beginning, Carthage and Macedonia even spared no expense to buy a batch of escort warships from Daqin that were smaller than the five-tooth warships.
The purpose is to study Daqin's shipbuilding technology so as to enhance the naval strength of our country.
In their eyes, the five-tooth battleship is something that is elusive, so they can only choose the next best thing.
But now the treasure ship built by Daqin has increased by six times on the basis of the five-tooth warship!
I believe that when they see the Great Qin Treasure Ship that looks like a city, they will definitely be in despair.
The huge number of five hundred long-range projectile weapons made Wang Jian and other generals swallow their saliva secretly one by one.
They all knew the power of the catapult and the three-bow bed crossbow very well.
It is a terrifying existence that can destroy any opponent hundreds of feet away, and the more the number, the stronger the effect.
And only one Great Qin Treasure Ship gathered more than [-] catapults and three-bow bed crossbows. If the firepower was fully fired, no opponent could avoid this overwhelming attack.
Not only the sea, but even ports and coastlines can be bombed from sea to land.
Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about the powerful three-bow bed crossbow. It only takes a few rounds of volleys, and even a city can be bombarded to pieces.
If the catapult is added, it will definitely be a devastating blow to the enemy.
Even if someone managed to survive this kind of crazy bombardment, they would be terrified and lose their morale.
Wang Jian and the others couldn't help thinking of the Marine Corps and the landing plan that Ying Yu had mentioned.
With such a mobile fortress on the sea, after some bombing, the elite marines are sent to land and fight. Who can stop it?
This treasure ship is completely like a bug!
With this giant in the sea, the oceans of the entire world will belong to Daqin.
Daqin will be the first super empire in history to dominate the ocean and land, and to realize all the grandeur of Daqin under the whole world.
The group of people suddenly felt emotional, even Ying Zheng was no exception.
A smile appeared on Ying Yu's face.
This is the sea giant, the super battleship, that he really wants.
Just one is enough to easily defeat an enemy fleet and get away with it.
And the combination of several battleships is enough to destroy the entire navy of the enemy!
The Great Qin Treasure Ship is an invincible warship at sea!
It is also a symbol of Great Qin's invincible sea power!
