My Empire War Game

Chapter 586: Set sail (1)

After Su Lun traveled to this world, he had experimented with making gunpowder, but to his disappointment, the gunpowder could not explode at all. The artillery weapon can only stay on the drawing.

Suren had heard that the hill dwarves possessed something similar to gunpowder, used to dig mountains and rocks to dig for mineral deposits, but this material was very expensive. This kind of thing similar to gunpowder is called fire crystal powder, and the main material is a kind of fire crystal.

After the flint is ground and mixed with several other materials, it will produce an effect similar to gunpowder, but the cost of this kind of thing is much more expensive than gunpowder. Even in the southern waters, there are few such fire equipment. For ships with crystal powder weapons, Su Lun plans to build some crystal cannons to install on warships.

The first batch of navy trained by Barbosa returned to Deepwater City. Although this batch of navies only trained for a short period of three months, their strength has met the requirements. After all, in order to train a qualified navy as soon as possible, Barbosa. Directly drag these people to sail on the ocean.

If it hadn't been for Su Lun to prepare a lot of underwater breathing medicine for him, half of the people in this batch of navy would have died. After these three months of intensive training, these people have experienced several storms on the ocean. Under such cruel conditions, the level of these people has naturally improved rapidly.

This method of training is basically to directly let the recruits come to the battlefield with weapons and let the battlefield educate him. This approach is cruel, but as long as they survive, they can quickly become elites. But this situation usually happens in pirates.

Pirates will not give you time to train and adapt, fight again and again, and sail. Only pirates trained in this way can compete with the navy on the sea.

Although various protective measures such as underwater breathing agents have been prepared, there are still a few deaths in this batch of navies, and this is nothing to do.

With this first batch of navies, the first ship in Deepwater City can be used as a warship, and the next navy will be trained from the navy camp. The training period for the navy camp is nine months. It took a long time to go up, but it was several times faster than training the navy in other countries.

It takes at least two years for a navy to transition from recruits to skilled operation of warships. Compared with them, Sulun only needs nine months, which is more than twice as fast.

After inspecting these navies, Su Lun was quite satisfied with them, and then announced that their salaries would be increased. Those who unfortunately died in training were subsidized according to the standards of martyrs, and Zhenbei City would distribute various materials to them.

After hearing that they passed the test, all the soldiers cheered excitedly. These soldiers directly obtained the citizenship of Zhenbei City, and their family members also obtained a field and house. Su Lun was still very generous to the army.

After completing the training, Su Lun gave these navies a few days off, and then waited until the new warship was completed, and formally formed the navy. Barbossa is also the admiral of the Deepwater City navy.

Deep Water City now has two sea ships, one is a training warship and the other is an armed merchant ship. These two ships will not join the navy sequence. After all, these two ships are the hands-on work of the Deep Water City Shipyard, and they exist inside. A lot of problems, of course, these problems are not serious, it is not a problem to be used as a merchant ship, but not as a warship.

The deepwater city navy established by Sulun is about 2,500 people, with 15 to 20 main battleships, as well as a number of reconnaissance ships and supply ships. Such a fleet is naturally incomparable with the navies of the southern countries with a scale of tens of thousands of people, but the combat effectiveness of the Navy of Deepwater City is not weak.

Although the navies of the southern countries are powerful, few ships are made of iron oak. Iron oak has a very good arson effect. The hull is hard. After the collision angle is installed, it can easily be hit at full speed. Ships using teak were crashed.

This kind of thing like horn collision, even in the previous life, did not completely withdraw from the battle arena until the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. The reason is the great power of the collision. In many cases, naval battles occur at sea. The two sides shelled out hundreds of shells. As a result, the two ships were scarred, but there was still no sign of sinking. But the weapon of collision angle can cause a one-shot kill effect on the enemy.

Such a powerful weapon is the killer of the navy pirates. As long as it hits, it can easily knock a huge hole in the sidestring of the ship, and the sea water will gush in immediately, and the ship will sink in a short time.

In contrast, the power of the crystal gun is very limited. After all, the hit rate of the crystal gun is not high. On the sea, the hit rate is even more touching. The artillery battle in the previous era of great voyage was completely two warships. When they are close to each other, they can rely on the number to solve the problem of hit rate, which requires a lot of expense.

Suren intends to equip some crystal cannons, and at the same time prepares to study alchemy cannons. Alchemy cannons have been produced for a long time, but there is also a problem, that is, the operator is a wizard. Sulun wants to let Hathaway improve and see if he can transform the alchemy cannon into something that ordinary people can use. If the transformation is successful, then the army of Deepwater City can sweep across the sea.

The alchemy cannon uses magic power. After directly inputting the magic power, a spell attack similar to the fireball technique is formed. However, this kind of alchemy cannon was thrown into the corner not long after it was developed. The main reason is that sorcerers can use fireball skills, so why use this alchemy cannon to attack. As a result, this kind of alchemy cannon became a joke among wizards.

Su Lun also shook his head helplessly for the idea of ​​an alchemy cannon. This thing went off the track from the beginning. He should make an alchemy cannon that ordinary people can use, not wizards.

The drawings of this kind of alchemy cannon have been collected as negative textbooks in some wizard books. Hathaway is naturally clear, but it is not easy to transform it into a magic item that ordinary people can use. The magic props made by wizards are basically used by wizards, and ordinary people's use is rarely considered.

But this is not without any way, after all, some triggered magic items can also be used by ordinary people.

If the alchemy cannon can be made successfully, Suren intends to replace the ballista on the magic ship of the anger dragon with an alchemy cannon. The ballista on the magic ship has a range of 500 meters, and its shooting accuracy is very accurate. After the ballista has been modified, kerosene has been added to it. The burning effect is very good. A single salvo can ignite a ship.

But compared to the power of the alchemy artillery, the power of fireball is very clear to Suren. It is very threatening to the current wooden ships, and only a few fireballs can easily send a ship to the bottom of the sea.

Sulun summoned the magic ship of the Nulong. The Nulong has been sleeping on the bottom of the sea to accumulate energy for this period of time. Now that the energy on the ship is full, Sulun intends to take the magic ship to the eastern continent.

This time I went to Suren on the Eastern Continent to prepare a large amount of supplies, and at the same time set off together with two merchant ships to form a fleet.

The Nulong has been tested and sailed several times, and there is no problem with its speed or defense at sea. In the curious gaze of the navy on the shore, the Nulong slowly entered the port. The Nulong is larger than a warship. And armed merchant ships are both big.

Moreover, space spells were used in the Fury Dragon, and the space on the ship was very large. A large amount of cargo can be loaded. The Fury Dragon added a lot of alchemical constructions during the production process. According to Hathaway's estimation, its maximum speed can reach 80 nautical miles per hour.

However, due to the immaturity of the energy supply device, the current energy used by the Anger Dragon relies on the magic circle to charge. It usually needs to collect energy. Of course, it can also allow the wizard to inject mana and place magic stones to extract energy. The cost is definitely higher. Big cut.

After collecting the slow energy, it can sail at full speed for about a day, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, and if the cruise speed is used, the Nulong can sail for a month. Of course, if it only relies on the power of the sails, without a big battle, Sailing at sea for a year is no problem.

Su Lun boarded the Angry Dragon, accompanied by some businessmen and scholars familiar with the Eastern Continent. Su Lun was mainly doing business this time, and did not intend to cause trouble. He intends to open up new waterways to make money.

The West Continent is located in the north of the planet, not a short distance from the East Continent, and there is another continent near the equator in the southeast direction of the West Continent.

On the magic ship.

Those scholars who are familiar with the Eastern Continent are introducing the environment of the Eastern Continent to the merchants. There are a large number of poisons on this continent, so after arriving there, you must not eat wild things casually. At the same time, they also tell some of the terroir of the Eastern Continent. Favor.

The proportion of poisons in the entire Eastern Continent accounted for nearly one-tenth, that is, one of the ten kinds of creatures is poisonous, so the intelligent races of the entire Eastern Continent have gained additional toxin resistance during the long biological evolution.

Since the eastern continent is a bit south, the environment here is relatively hot, and the climate changes more drastically than here. It may be sunny in the morning, and it may turn into a thunderstorm in the afternoon, which is somewhat similar to the environment of a tropical rain forest.

In addition to these, the Eastern Continent is also rich in products, and many specialties are completely absent in the Western Continent. In addition to these, the East Continent is also the birthplace of monks. Because of serious accidents during the Arcane Empire, there are many ancient evils sealed on this continent, and these evils are basically the monks’ monasteries. Suppressed.

Su Lun is also very interested in these evil things, but in this long time, many evil things have been killed by the town, maybe he can kill a few to earn some experience.
