When Zhu Zhen returned to the Qu County Public Hall, he saw a tall and strong civil servant coming towards him. As soon as he met, he immediately saluted and said, "Secretary Zheng Qinian, I have met Master."

No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang could finally seize the world. The heroes in this wise man's hall were emerging one after another. Although Zhu Zhen had never seen him and did not know his name, he saw his dark face like an old farmer, as dark as black charcoal, as devastated by the sea breeze, he knew that he was not the kind of person who sat in the public hall to enjoy a blessing.

When Zhu Zhen saw him, he felt very happy: "How is the matter done if you don't have any gifts?"

Zheng Qinian replied respectfully: "My uncle suggested that craftsmen be drawn from various shipyards to support Huai'an shipyard to the workshop, and Lord Li Shanchang ordered the implementation.

The lower officials immediately summoned 217 craftsmen with good craftsmanship and experienced seniority to come to join Boye in a new sea boat built in the past two years."

Zhu Zhen was overjoyed: "How many boats are there?"

Zheng Qinian faced the shame and bowed his hand before saying again: "I have been trusted by Bo Ye, and only four new warships were built. However, when it was first built, because craftsmen nowadays found it difficult for them to understand the mystery of Bo Ye's drawings, so everyone took many detours and even made many irreparable mistakes and destroyed a ship. Fortunately, everything went smoothly in the later period. We made the model ship first and understood the theory, and then it went smoothly."

Zhu Zhen was a little ashamed... Although he knew a little about the Queen's ship, he was not professional. The drawings drawn according to his own understanding and memory were naturally inevitably wrong and omissions. It was difficult for these craftsmen to overcome difficulties with the drawings drawn by two knives and build four ships, which was very difficult.

Zhu Zhen looked around the river and asked, "Where is the boat?

Can it be in the shipyard?”

Zheng Qinian nodded and said, "The officials strictly followed Boye's instructions. Some data and processes of the new sea ships are strictly confidential. Therefore, even the new sails are not hung. After arriving last night, they put all the ships in the dock and are not allowed to watch."

An old-fashioned person is reassuring when doing things! Zhu Zhen praised him, and he recommended Chang Mao and Zhu Muying.

Liu Qingshan, Qi Bin and other generals all called out and rushed straight to the shipyard not far from the port.

Several generals didn't know what their head coach was doing, but they all became interested when they heard that it was a new type of sea boat.

Although I won a great victory this time, the speed of the old-fashioned sea boat still makes everyone feel powerless.

If the hot air balloon hadn't discovered the pirate's hiding place early in the sky and then tied up with both sides to chase and block it, the pirate might have run away long ago.

The shipyard has been alerted by soldiers, which will be the norm in the future to prevent people from peeping at the shipyard from obtaining confidential information.

Several people climbed a low ridge between the shipyard and the port. Looking around, the entire shipyard occupied a huge and gentle area between the two mountains.

The original abandoned dock has also been renovated, and four slender new-style sea boats are quietly parked next to the cofferdam on the shore.

Zhu Zhen could not suppress the ecstasy in his heart just after just one look.

This is the queen ship he wants! The bow has prominent horns and looks like a duckbill.

There is a forecastle, but it is obviously lower than the stern.

The stern tower is towering with four masts, the foremast is at the forecastle and the main mast is in the middle of the ship. Both masts are very high and equipped with square sails.

There are two masts on the stern, which are very short and will be equipped with triangular sails.

Fluent lines, majestic and domineering! This is the overlord of the sailing era. However, the queen ship in the dock is a little different from the queen ship in history... When the queen ship was rising, there was no concept of battleships. Ships advocate fighting alone, and they also engage in melee when fighting in groups.

At that time, the idea of ​​artillery was to be able to cover the surroundings of the ship without dead corners, and the hull was designed with a large arc so that the side guns on the ship could be fired toward the surroundings in a fan shape.

However, this seems a bit out of date in Zhu Zhen’s opinion.

In the design drawings, he concentrated all the Queen's gun positions on both sides of the ship's side, so that when the ship comes across, a battle line will be formed, and all the firepower on one side can be concentrated to give the enemy a fatal blow.

Because even if Zhu Zhen built the cannon, the power of the cannon would not be too great due to materials, explosives, etc., and there would not be too strong recoil. Even a volley would not cause damage to the construction structure of the hull.

Of course, no one, including Zheng Qinian, knows what the cannon position reserved by Zhu Zhen is for... Zhu Zhen pointed to the queen ship in the dock and asked Zheng Qinian: "Have you ever tested the speed of the ship?"

When we mentioned this, Zheng Qinian was immediately excited. His dark old face seemed to emit light, and he danced and said, "Of course, this boat is too fast! When we tested it, we couldn't see the specific route of travel, but it was too fast. Bei Zhi had never seen a boat that was so fast. It would not be too much to say that he was riding the wind and waves!"

Ru Taisu frowned and said, "You can collect specific data, but it is still hard for me to imagine how you describe it."

Zheng Qinian had obviously heard of Ru Taisu's name, and admired the officials around Zhu Zhen, and said immediately: "This ship is too fast. We have arrived at our destination before we can measure it.

And I thought that there were still some unclear things in the first operation, and only after the water pants were trained can he exert his maximum power.

In addition, the biggest advantage of this ship is not its speed, but its sail! This complete set of sail tools was designed by Boye, which is simply ingenious. If you install this kind of sail, you can sail regardless of the wind and the wind!"

Zhu Zhen laughed but said nothing. This actually has nothing to do with what kind of sail is. It is just a simple aerodynamic principle. But it is such a simple principle of "the increase in fluid velocity will reduce the pressure". After explaining it to Zheng Qinian for a long time, I couldn't understand it.

Finally, Zhu Zhen used the pressure of the chief officials and Zhu Yuanzhang's handwritten letters to force it to promote it.

Simple and crude, but very useful.

Liu Qingshan, who was standing by, widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "Don't you pull it. You can wet your trousers' legs even if you urinate in the wind. Wouldn't the boat be blown back in the wind?"

In his perception, ships mainly rely on sails when sailing on the sea. The wind blows the sails to bring power and pushes the ship forward.

But if you face the wind, the force will be reversed. How can you move forward?

Zheng Qinian was polite to Ru Taisu because Ru Taisu was a famous civil servant around Zhu Zhen. Although the lord was not shown and his position was not high, his merits and achievements were placed there, so he was not so polite to Liu Qingshan.

Who is this big guy?

I haven't seen it before... Therefore, Zheng Qinian said bluntly: "Everything in the world has the truth, so we need to study things and make knowledge. Ores can turn into sharp and tough weapons, water can turn into ice, clouds can turn into rain, why can't ships sail against the wind?"

"This..." Liu Qingshan rolled his eyes when he was choked, but he couldn't think of a rebuttal.

Zhu Zhen pointed to the sailboat in the dock and said, "Why dispute?"

The boat is there, let's take it out and let's go, will the truth be revealed?

However, since Liu Qianhu doesn’t believe it, Zheng Zheng is confident and they don’t believe it. How about making a bet?”

This is a black technology, and I will definitely hack Liu Qingshan today.

Ru Taisu nodded immediately: "This is OK."

Those who watch the fun are naturally not afraid of big things... Yang Xun smiled: "Gambling money hurts feelings, and it is a bit vulgar. Why not just bet on a roasted lamb? Whoever loses tonight will be responsible for setting up a barbecue, and the rest of them enjoy drinking and having fun together, how about it?"

Zhu Muying and Chang Mao had no expression on their faces: "I agree."

Liu Qingshan stared at him and said unhappily: "Why did you expect someone to lose?"

I still don’t believe it. If the sailboat can move forward in the wind, it would be better to say that the river flows backwards and the sun rises to the west, and bet if you bet!"

Zhu Zhen smiled and asked Zheng Qinian: "What do you think of Zheng Zheng?"

Nonsense, it’s obvious that Zheng Qinian will refuse something that is determined to win?

So Zheng Qinian had an old face that was three points blacker than black charcoal, and stretched out his fingers with short and thick calluses: "You have to bake two."

Liu Qingshan shouted in anger: "Sir, don't be arrogant. If we can really sail in the wind, then our Huaian Navy will be invincible to the sea with such a magical weapon. So what if we roast lambs for you for a lifetime?

Don’t show off here, get on the ship and get up the sail quickly, and make a judgment on winning or losing!”

After hearing this, Zheng Qinian changed his disdain for Liu Qingshan and gave a thumbs up and praised: "I am a hero in the army. In order to have a sharp artifact in the army, I will be willing to bear any punishment. I deserve the title of Junshan soldier! Regardless of the victory or defeat tonight, please drink three cups with me!"

Previously, Zheng Qinian blamed Liu Qingshan for questioning his words, so he felt that Liu Qingshan was vulgar and rude. At this moment, when he saw that the other party was indeed looking at the navy, his opinion immediately became very touching.

Liu Qingshan laughed and said, "Since that's the case, we will never be drunk and have no return! Hahaha, when it comes to drinking, who have you ever been afraid of?"

However, when I glanced at Zhu Zhen, I saw Zhu Zhen's smile-smile expression next to me, and Ru Taisu, Chang Mao, Yang Xun, and Zhu Muying's disgust, and immediately coughed dryly. I remembered the previous victory and was so tilted that I was skewed. I suddenly blushed and said, "That, my uncle naturally doesn't count. He is an earl and the head coach. Let's drink with him. Is it right?"

Several comrades-in-arms made a gesture to Liu Qingshan that they had learned from Zhu Zhen shortly - they raised their middle fingers in unison and expressed their contempt for Liu Qingshan's shamelessness.

Liu Qingshan blushed and said in anger: "What are you looking at someone with such a strange look?

That's right, my alcohol tolerance is far inferior to my uncle, but what does that matter?

Dissatisfied?

If you don’t accept it, you will let you all go!”

He was arrogant, but he secretly regretted that he had said the wrong thing.

He claimed to be amazing in alcohol, but he was turned to the ground by Zhu Zhenfang not long ago. He drank so much that he was confused. From then on, he never dared to brag about how powerful his alcohol content was in front of Zhu Zhen... This uncle really can drink! Thinking about Zhu Zhen's alcohol content, Liu Qingshan felt trembling in his heart...
