Chapter 4, 5, and 6: Building the Daming Treasure Ship

Zhao Yun has recruited one hundred thousand naval forces, and his daily task is to train naval forces. In addition to physical training for the soldiers every day, Zhao Yun mainly engages in actual combat exercises. In order to become stronger on the battlefield in the future.

Zhao Yun takes the soldiers to practice on the water every day. Basically, one bath lasts for half a day. The southerners are okay when they come down every day, but the northerners can’t! Because they are not familiar with water, there are blisters under their feet at night. Some can’t hold on and leave!

In addition to training in the water, there are also two hours of land training every day, which are all one-on-one actual combat exercises. Everyone is wearing armor and holding a long spear for stabs to exercise his speed and arm strength.

When they are not wearing armor, Zhao Yun will teach them some methods and skills in close combat, which can improve their personal physical fitness and combat quality. Zhao Yun also specially taught his thirteen styles of Zhao’s spear to the soldiers.

Zhao’s thirteen styles are Zhao Yun’s unique skills, which can be invincible on the battlefield and kill the enemy invisible. Of course, everyone’s abilities are different, and how much they can learn depends on their personal comprehension ability.

After a period of training, the navy has basically been completed. Zhao Yun came to report to Chen Chong that day and asked Chen Chong to test the basic abilities of the navy. Chen Chong came to the scene and felt very satisfied after seeing the naval maneuvers on the water. He praised Zhao Yun for his good management.

Zhao Yun was found during this day and asked him to build 800 Da Ming Treasure Ships with a deadline of three months. After hearing this, Zhao Yun said:

“Master, it’s a bit difficult to build this kind of giant ship in such a short time,’.”

“It’s okay. Go ahead and do it boldly. Pick whatever you want with manpower and material resources. Come to me if you have any difficulties.”

With Chen Chong’s words, Zhao She felt much more at ease! So he started shipbuilding. Zhao Yun looked for 300 carpenters, 200 blacksmiths, and dozens of handymen from outside. The carpenters were responsible for the shape of the boat. The blacksmith is responsible for the reinforcement work inside and outside the ship.

For this reason, Zhao Yun recruited several shipbuilders from the private sector to design the exterior structure of the ship and the layout of the facilities inside. After several people discussed it, it was decided to install many transverse bulkheads on the hull structure.

The ship has 28 large cabins and 23 small cabins, which can strengthen and resist sinking. And it can also be loaded, which plays a different role.

The appearance of this kind of ship is generally small square, wide and flat, and it is a kind of building ship. There are five floors from the bottom tank to the deck, three floors on the deck, and a deckhouse in the middle of the main frame.

A mighty tiger head relief is designed on the front of the bow. On both sides, the front part is embossed or painted with flying dragon, and the back is painted with phoenix. Above the tail is the big Peng bird flying high.

The length of the boat is generally 120 to 148, and the width is 40 to 60. The overall design is a sail-like structure, and the canvas surface has a canopy for reinforcement.

The workers designed the length, width, height, and structure of the ship based on these. To this end, the woodworkers must first transport the wood, and then saw it into boards of various sizes, and first assemble the general frame.

After polishing and forming, the blacksmiths have to prepare a lot of iron dices, dices, mother dices, etc., and then fix the boat plates one by one, so that a boat is basically formed. The next step is high-end design.

Zhao Yun also found a few professional carving masters for the bow and stern reliefs from the folks. After more than three months of fighting, 800 ships were finally completed and stopped firmly on the river. It looks magnificent and very spectacular.

Zhao Yun went to Chen Chong and said that the ship was ready! He only waited for Chen Chong to come and inspect it. Chen Chong came to the surface of the river and was shocked to see such a magnificent scene! He said to Zhao Yun:

“I didn’t misunderstand you. I didn’t expect you to have completed the construction of so many ships in just a few months. It is incredible.

“The heroine, in fact, these are the contributions of the workers. I’m just responsible for managing them.

“No matter what, your contribution is immeasurable. Let’s just say, whatever rewards you want, I will satisfy you all.”

“Master, this is what I should do, and I don’t need any rewards.”

“Then I will give you a sword! As the saying goes, a sword is a gift to a hero. This sword was used by Jing Ke when he assassinated King Qin. I will give it to you! I hope you will fight to kill the enemy.”

Speaking, Chen Chong took it out of the box and handed it to Zhao Yun, who also readily accepted it. Because this sword is not an ordinary sword, the golden color is so bright, and the moment it is pulled out, it buzzes, and it looks like a good sword. Of course Zhao Yun can’t put it down!

In the course of this day, I thought that now that one hundred thousand naval forces have been in place and eight hundred ships have been set up, it is time to attack Jingzhou next. So Chen Chong approached Zhuge Liang and asked:

“Military strategist, you see that the navy and the warships are already in place, and they are just waiting to attack Jingzhou. What good strategy do you have?”



“Master, the power of Jingzhou is currently flourishing. If we want to take it, we must first find the person Xun You.”

“Is he better than you?

“Of course! We are not at the same level.

Chen Chong feels that the world is so big, where can I find such a person?
