Seeing the huge ammunition supply device, Admiral Dailin's dream of modifying the flagship was instantly ended. He had originally considered installing the cannon next to the captain's cabin at the rear, which happened to be heavily reinforced with iron armor.

of.

Now when I look at the real thing, I can see that with such a large area, even if the captain's cabin is removed, it still won't be able to meet the installation requirements!

Zhang Weidao saw the disappointed expression on the admiral's face and understood that he must be very depressed now. This was what he had expected. It is basically impossible to modify a backward magic-modified sail warship with modern weapons. The only way is to replace it with a new one.

Road.

So he quickly spoke to comfort him, "Admiral, don't be discouraged. As long as we eliminate all those old warships and replace them with new steel battleships, we can definitely crush those goblin fleets."

Next to him, Sir Lothar, who was numb to the waste of steel, was tasting the soda provided on the ship and studying the principles of this very exciting drink.

Suddenly hearing Zhang Weidao's words of comfort to Dai Lin, he couldn't hold his breath on the spot and instantly sprayed out the soda in his mouth, spraying it all over Dai Lin's face who was absentmindedly considering whether to buy a new ship.

.

Admiral Dai Lin came back to his senses and wiped the soda on his face, not caring about this.

They live at sea all year round, and it is common for them to be drowned by wind and waves. Being sprayed with water is nothing!

When Sir Lothar saw Dai Lin come to his senses, he repeated Zhang Weidao's words to him in a funny way.

Hearing that Zhang Weidao just said that the entire fleet should be replaced, Admiral Dai Lin was also confused. This is to let Kul Tiras save a hundred years of steel!

"If we were to replace a steel warship, an ordinary warship would also need thousands of tons of steel!"

Zhang Weidao said nonchalantly: "Yes! You don't have to waste thousands of tons of steel, how can you have the nerve to call it a warship?"

"But our annual steel output is only a few thousand tons?" Admiral Dai Lin's voice was a little low after being hit by tons of critical hits.

Regarding the situation in various human countries, Zhang Weidao had long expected that the authority for steel production was not delegated to the people, so it was only this amount. This is the consequence of low production capacity caused by not using the power of the people.

"The solution is actually very simple. Just like the dwarves, open steelmaking to all people."

"When the time comes, we will arrange for blacksmiths from government-run blacksmith shops to go to various places to provide guidance and ensure that steel production can be increased dozens of times. Then we can use steel as a tax credit."

Upon hearing Zhang Weidao's solution, Admiral Dai Lin and Sir Lothar's eyes lit up at the same time. This solution is great!

They had never considered the harm of the steel government policy passed down from their ancestors. Now that Zhang Weidao reminded them and used dwarves as a ready-made example, it suddenly dawned on them. It turned out that they had been constraining themselves for so many years.

ah!

This policy of all-people steelmaking is absolutely beneficial and harmless. There is no threat to the people operating the steelmaking industry. They will only use it to build tools for life and work, and they cannot use it to rebel!

After Zhang Weidao's guidance, the two of them instantly saw the bright future. Sir Lothar saw his Iron Knights galloping across the ocean, and Admiral Dai Lin saw his steel fleet crossing the ocean. This is the charm of steel, even in the world

There are spells, but steel production capacity is still important.

However, the increase in steel production does not happen overnight. Now we still have to see what good things are on board.

Sir Lothar knew this very well. Looking at Zhang Weidao's confident look, he definitely had something good in hand.

"Headmaster Zhang, stop being so pretentious, look at how anxious Dai Lin is."

Zhang Weidao listened to Sir Lothar's ridicule, picked up the phone next to him, and dialed the control center.

"Hey! Let Gersk fire the ship-borne rocket launcher for some air!"

The person answering the phone on the other side was Chief Engineer Gersk's deputy, Nars, who had previously accompanied Zhang Weidao to test the wheat field puppet.

Nars heard Zhang Weidao's voice on the other side of the phone and replied: "Okay! Lord Headmaster!"

Then I heard Nars shouting, "Master! The master wants you to fire up the ship-based rocket launcher and show it off!"

Then I heard Gersk's cursing voice coming from the phone that hadn't been hung up yet.

"If you don't concentrate on studying science, why would you join a sect? Theology can't bring you any inspiration!"

"But the headmaster can provide many advanced technological ideas! It is said that they are gifts from the God of Craftsmen."

Deputy Nars hung up the phone completely, and the argument between the two ended, but Zhang Weidao was still very satisfied. Even dwarf scientists have joined the pantheon, and our deception skills are becoming more and more powerful!

Zhang Weidao was very proud all the way, and returned to the deck with the two bumpkins who saw the phone for the first time.

At this time, the rocket launcher on the side of the hull had been raised. Sir Lothar and Dai Lin finally understood what Zhang Weidao meant when he said to open it for air. When it is not in use, it can be stowed below the deck. Seeing this magical

Weapon, Admiral Dai Lin instantly felt that there was something interesting about it.

Zhang Weidao pointed to the long body of the rocket launcher and introduced it to General Dai Lin.

"This weapon can be used on your existing warships and is perfectly compatible with older warships."

"Moreover, as long as there is enough space on board, ordinary civilian ships can also be used."

This time Admiral Dai Lin finally found a treasure. As long as the upper part of the captain's cabin is leveled, it can be hoisted up and placed. Several gun emplacements can also be eliminated, the upper and lower decks can be opened up, and transformed into a lifting type like this.

.

Admiral Dai Lin is absolutely satisfied with the convenience of this weapon. Next, it depends on the power of the weapon. This needs to be driven to a farther place for test firing, otherwise the explosion will scare the people.

Zhang Weidao gave an order, and the battleship Tianshu left the port and began to speed up to the open sea. Dai Lin, a professional navigator, quickly estimated the speed of the battleship. He came up with a speed of at least thirty knots.

Then, he received a new round of critical hits in an instant.

Sir Lothar looked a little dazed after seeing Daelin estimate the speed of the ship, and quickly patted him on the shoulder to bring him back to his senses.

Admiral Dai Lin looked at Sir Lothar and said with some disbelief: "I just estimated that it won't even take a week for this ship to return to the Kingdom of Stormwind."

Now Sir Lothar was not calm. Although Zhang Weidao mentioned to him that the speed of this battleship was very fast, Sir Lothar only thought that it was young people bragging, and he would definitely discount it in actual sailing. As a result, Dai Lin is now

An admiral personally confirmed that the warship could indeed achieve the speed Zhang Weidao boasted about.

Fortunately, out of politeness, he did not question what Zhang Weidao said, otherwise his old face would definitely be slapped now.

Looking at this fast battleship, although Sir Lothar felt a little slapped in the face, he was still secretly happy. Being able to send back some of the people of Stormwind Kingdom as soon as possible is still very important for stabilizing the morale of the exiled citizens.

Otherwise, once morale drops to a low point, those talents will be poached by some insidious kings. He still knows this kind of thing. If such a thing really happens, it will be absolutely unacceptable to the powerful Sir Lothar.
