Black Dragon Code

In the whispers of people, Caesar watched with satisfaction as the first iron armored ship in the North slid into the sea.

To be honest, this ship didn't come easily. Caesar knew nothing about sea ships, and the barren north lacked shipbuilding technology. Few knowledgeable shipbuilders spread the reward of the Black Dragon Emperor to the mainland through the public opinion control department. Everywhere, many talents have been attracted.

Unlike today's mainstream maritime solid-wood vessels that are wrapped in iron skin, this vessel has used a steel frame for the first time. Whether it is a design scheme or a material level, it is ahead of today's mainstream vessels by a level and overall strength. It is also several times higher than wooden warships.

Corvette Velen, a long-distance master from the trade city, received official attention and respect as soon as he arrived on the West Coast, and the shipbuilder was not unaware, and spent some time understanding the drive of the steam furnace. After the model and working principle, he quickly modified the drawings he had conceived to design a warship that met the requirements of the Northern Empire.

After all the technical problems were overcome, Covitt's shipyard immediately received strong support from the empire. This huge and incomparable machine was requested, which only took one year, as required by Emperor Caesar. Armored ships have already appeared.

"But now, this thing is still a semi-finished product." Caesar stared at the sea monster that was bigger than himself, exuding the beauty of steel, and knew.

In order to speed up the construction, this armored ship was not equipped with power modules and weapon systems, but Covett already considered this problem at the beginning of the design, and reserved a steam furnace, transmission structure and paddle wheels in the hull. The card slot and interface can be spliced ​​by welding on these metal parts. Installation is not difficult.

This design idea is good, Caesar decided to keep it to facilitate mass production in the assembly line factory.

As soon as the feasibility demonstration of manufacturing the armored ship was completed, the Empire invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the control area on the west coast, and began to build a large-scale assembly line factory.

That is the true Northland official shipyard. With the emergence of products such as molds and machine tools, the factory can basically produce the same ship parts without changing the requirements, so as not to install power systems and weapons. There was a deviation in the module.

With technical support, reliable modules and a large labor force, the only factor restricting the production of armored ships is steel output. However, in the case of the northern mining industry and the importation of trade, the steel provided is sufficient to support the empire. Demand.

In other words, Northland can build more than three armored ships in one year. If the Emperor Heilong is willing to expand the size of the shipyard, the number will increase.

It should be understood that this is not an ordinary merchant ship or sailing ship, but a giant armored ship for military use. Such armored ships are generally used as flagships in naval battles, and must be supplemented by small-scale warship groups of a certain size.

This means that if the speed of the steam furnace and the training of the Black Wing crew can keep up, the empire can have vast maritime power within five years, and the entire west coast will be full of its own warships. The epic The same is true of the Destroyed Fleet.

This is the charm of combining industry and magic.

Now that the armored ship has been successfully launched into the sea, the next task is to install the power components, and the weapon assembly needs to be moved back a little, because the originally expected black artillery has been banned, and the weapons workshop is developing new artillery-this is also Caesar The reason why one hundred and twenty-five-pound black artillery can be abandoned and given to the Elven Forest.

"Sir, I don't understand."

Hogg stood at the feet of the black dragon, raised his head and asked, "This will be our best weapon. Why should it be leaked out ahead of time." The werewolf scanned the crowd with scarlet eyes: "There are others from here Human beings may become our enemies. "

"To promote national strength."

"Well?"

"I just want them to see the empire growing stronger."

Caesar smiled: "Before I ruled, there shouldn't have been anything like this in the Northland? As the standard of living gradually improved and the non-existent things continued to appear, their identity with the empire would increase. It ’s getting higher-this kind of mentality improvement is all-round, from resistance to doubt, to firmness, piety, worship, and finally, they will even think that the empire is omnipotent. "

"I still don't understand. You are not a deity and you can't absorb faith from it, so what's the point of doing this?" Hogg's voice remained puzzled.

"I can't get faith, but it doesn't mean that faith has no effect on me."

The black dragon murmured: "If everyone in this empire is willing to die for it, what is the difference between the black wing empire and the divine state, I am here with the **** ..."

He said half stopped and smiled down at the werewolf: "You probably understand it, letting the armored ship be exposed is a propaganda method ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ The new ship was inspected for two weeks after entering the sea. After confirming that there were no problems, the official then invited Corvette Velen to the royal court and held a grand ceremony of honor under the watchful eye of everyone.

According to the official announcement, based on the outstanding contribution of the shipbuilder Covill Velen to the empire, His Majesty decided to grant him the title of Earl. Although the title of the Blackwing Noble was not hereditary since the establishment of the empire, the empire retained its descendants to inherit the Earl of Covill Fiefdom power.

The incident caused by this incident was even more significant than the appearance of the armored ship, because after all, only a part of the people in the ship warships kept their attention, but the nobles were the glory that all empire leaders wanted, and this time His Majesty gave The title is not low.

An earl, you have to know that since the establishment of the Black Wing Empire, the royal court has never granted anyone the title of nobility. People have begun to wonder whether the empire is going to ban the nobility system. However, at this time, a new noble was on board. The Empire Stage.

Even more dramatic is that Feng was actually a shipbuilder!

Although Corvette has a good reputation in the industry and is respected as a "master" by the people in the industry, in fact, according to the current values ​​of Eladia, he is still only a craftsman, and his status is as high as that of a businessman. The magician of Pan is distinguished, even compared to the more capable adventurer.

But all the castes that the casters of the Empire had dreamed of were obtained by one such craftsman.

Some keen people have already smelled the empire's attitude from this incident and can see clearly what Wang Ting really values ​​and encourages.

At the same time, the conquest also caused some dissatisfaction among the casters who served the empire, but that's all. The casters soon lost their voices, and there was no more to follow. 8) More exciting novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading school
