Chapter 596 The Beginning of New Battleships(2/2)
The method is more appropriate.”
Sean spoke highly of Master Fitzgerald’s proposal.
When he was designing the new dragon-wrecked battleship, Sean's ideas were unknowingly influenced by the modern ships and battleships of previous generations.
But one issue has been more or less ignored—supply.
Now that ships and warships are emerging on a large scale, the entire world has entered the most prosperous period of the great sea navigation era. Not only are there many supply points, but even routes have become stable.
The navigation business of the Yongye Army is still in its infancy. The Dragon Warship is too advanced. If it relies too much on supplies, it will also limit its combat effectiveness.
In the end, it went back to the old path. When the supply is sufficient, it will be invincible. Once the supply is exhausted, it will be completely trapped.
As the flagship of the explorer fleet, the main mission of the New Dragon Warship is to explore the Endless Sea. The situation it will face will be complex and changeable. It may even take months or even years without a chance to return to the Evernight Army for supplies. Many of them
The problem can only be solved on the spot.
The more diverse the ways to provide kinetic energy, the more options the crew and soldiers will have to choose from.
Moreover, the new dragon skeleton battleship is not made of steel. It will still be mainly made of solid wood. Steel and other metal raw materials are used to lay spell circuits and build energy reactors.
no way.
Many times, even mastering advanced technologies and ideas is of no use, and transitional technologies still have to be used.
Because this is limited by productivity.
The three iron ore mines led by the Yong Ye Army on the border of the Donau Plain have been repaired and have begun to transport iron ore one after another. In addition, the amount of iron ore taken from the Kingsley family in recent years is quite large.
But the hole that cannot support their consumption of iron ore is even bigger.
Weapons and armor require steel, needless to say.
New weapons and artillery also require high-quality steel.
The construction of energy reactors and energy pipelines also requires high-quality metals.
The land transportation mode that the Yongye Army Leader is preparing - railway, is an out-and-out steel-eating monster.
Just for the above items, the Evernight Army Leader, who cannot use alternative products, is already unable to bear the burden. Many projects are being shelved until resources are sufficient.
Food must be eaten one bite at a time, the road must be walked step by step, and technological innovation can only be achieved step by step.
"However, we cannot use old-fashioned masts and sails. I have just readjusted the design of the new warship and incorporated a magic circuit into it. It can not only assist the energy reactor to collect magic energy, but also increase the use of wind power.
efficiency, and then achieve the purpose of increasing the speed of the ship." Sean waved his claws, and a holographic projection appeared in front of everyone.
The design of the new dragon-wrecked battleship has been added with the design of masts and sails.
