The two people continued walking forward, and after about a few thousand feet, they saw a huge gap nearly a hundred feet high. Almost all the ground fire on the third floor flowed into this extremely wide gap.
In front of the gap, dozens of soldiers wearing pitch-black armor with cold air curling around their bodies lined up to guard the gap. Each of these guards had a powerful aura. Fang Yun felt it. The aura of these people was still ordinary.
Above the Forbidden Army. And it carries a strange aura.
"These people are actually at the sixth level of residence!"
Fang Yun was secretly shocked. When placed in the army, a warrior at the level of a fetus would be directly at the level of a captain. He could lead tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, making him a true master in the army. But here, there is a row of people standing guard.
Watch out, it’s really a grand event!
"Inside the gap should be the three ship masters on Minshan Mountain."
Fang Yun thought in his heart. From inside the gap, there was a sound of dragons and tigers roaring from time to time. From a distance, Fang Yun felt three auras, overwhelming like a river, giving people a great majesty. The strongest one among them, than
Even more powerful than a great general!
"These three ship masters are so powerful. I'm afraid they are all above the Rebirth Realm! With such strength, no wonder the black-bearded general said that the real people in power on Ming Mountain are these ship masters."
Fang Yun was secretly shocked by the strength of Lou Chuanshi.
"stop!"
Seeing Fang Yun and his party approaching, a soldier leader strode out, raised his hand, and said in a cold voice: "This is a forbidden area of the mine. No one can get close to it, so leave immediately!"
Before Fang Yun could speak, Wu Wei blushed and shouted:
"What do you mean by idle people? You are so blind that you don't even look at who is standing in front of you? Fang Yun, the son of the Marquis of Sifang Fang Yin, the young Marquis!"
"Don't talk about the little Marquis, it's useless even if the Marquis comes!"
The soldier leader said coldly.
"You! You short-sighted dog slave, you are so courageous! Our little marquis is the first place in this year's Lantern Festival civil and military competition. Even Wu Mu and Sangong were alarmed, and they both sent gift cards to collect.
As a disciple. Even the Governor should be polite to such a person when he sees him, but you, a little little slave, dare to speak rudely!"
Wu Wei pretended to be a tiger and yelled loudly. These soldiers usually relied on the support of three ship masters and kept their eyes high. No one paid attention to them. Wu Wei had suffered losses before, and this time it was rare to rely on Fang Yun to do anything.
Have a backer and be strong.
"Wu Mu!" Upon hearing this, dozens of warriors at the fetal level were shocked in their hearts. When they looked at Fang Yun one by one, their arrogance was gone, and their expressions became much more respectful.
"It turns out to be the young Marquis. I'm disrespectful. I hope the young Marquis won't be offended."
The leader of the soldiers bowed down and said cautiously.
"It's okay," Fang Yun waved his hand and said calmly: "I want to go in and visit the three masters. See if you can inform them."
The soldier had a troubled expression on his face: "Little Marquis, it's not that I don't agree. The three masters have already told me that the construction of the building ship has entered a critical moment recently. Even if the Governor comes, I can't put it in. Xiao
people……"
"That being the case, forget it."
Naturally, Fang Yun would not be on the same level as him. Since the other party said that even the governor could not enter, it must be true. Fang Yun would not be stupid enough to stalk him and do nothing but useless things.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the governors of various states were generally at the prince level, and they had to be the best and most qualified princes in the royal family to be qualified to serve as governors of various states. The three ship masters actually said that even the governor came.
You can't put it in. Its status and power are evident.
A simple sentence gave Fang Yun the most intuitive understanding of these ship masters. The power of the ship masters alone is already so heavy, and there is a layer of heavenly craftsmanship above them. Those heavenly craftsmen
Isn't power even more terrifying?
Fang Yun raised his head and glanced at the top of the gap. Nearly a hundred feet away from the ground, a huge shadow of an eaves ship passed over the top of the gap. A powerful and heavy aura emanated from the shadow!
"This should be the powerful navigation weapon of the Zhou Dynasty, the steel ship."
Fang Yun realized something in his heart. This protruding corner, like the corner of the eaves, should be the bow of the building boat. Fang Yun tried his best to see the end of the building boat clearly. However, he looked from bottom to top, exploring
After traveling hundreds of feet, we still couldn't see the end of the bow of this building boat.
A strange feeling arose in Fang Yun's heart. The unfinished steel building ship in the distance was like a prehistoric beast, silently entrenched there. Those who saw it could not help but feel a sense of insignificance.
.
"After this steel building ship is completed, it will probably be several thousand feet high, like a mountain. The hull is so huge, but the exit from the mountain is very small. I don't know how it will be transported out after it is completed? Will it break the top of the mountain?"
Fang Yun secretly thought in his heart that Liangzhou is still far away from the sea. Logically speaking, a huge building ship should not be built in the heart of the mountain.
"Wu Wei, let's go."
Fang Yun withdrew his gaze, called Wu Wei, turned around and left. Although Lou Chuan could not see the whole picture, he could see a corner, and for Fang Yun, that was enough.
Fang Yun specifically proposed this visit to the mountainside to Li Yu. It was just a simple visit, which made Fang Yun deeply understand the special status of the Ministry of Industry in the Zhou Dynasty.
The great Zhou Dynasty had tens of thousands of troops, and they were invincible on land. However, when such a huge army reached the boundless sea, it was as weak as a speck in the ocean, unable to do anything.
The sea is vast and boundless, hundreds or thousands of times larger than the land area. The vast waves have more than a thousand billions of waves.
On the sea, the weather changes, and big waves can roll up thousands of feet. Under the sea, there are fierce and cruel sea tribes. These sea tribes are very different from humans. They can stir up winds and waves and drive away huge sea beasts. The strongest among them are
They can also control thunder and lightning. In order to conquer the overseas Yinghuang, the Zhou Dynasty lost countless soldiers. It was not until the Ministry of Industry built huge steel ships that the situation changed.
These steel buildings are thousands of feet high and weigh tens of millions of tons. If placed in the sea, no matter how big the waves are, they will not be able to capsize them. The navy of the Great Zhou Dynasty was almost entirely supported by the steel buildings built by the Ministry of Works.
"Little Marquis, actually we can still get in as long as we use some tricks!"
On the way back, Wu Wei kept chattering.
"No need," Fang Yun said lightly. As the saying goes, you can know the mood of autumn by looking at one leaf, and you can know the whole leopard by peeking at a spot. It's enough to see a corner of the ship! After entering, it is nothing more than the scene of the ship builder building the ship.
For Fang Yun, all he needs now is to build a pair of armor to use in the army in the future.
The smelting area in the middle of the mountain has only one entrance and one exit, both of which lead to the ground. After a while, the two people walked out of the middle of the mountain.
On the central main peak, thick smoke billowed, and the underground fires gushed out from the ground, crisscrossing the surface, forming a large network. Densely packed cauldrons were suspended in these underground fire rock flows.
Next to each bronze tripod, there is a soldier and a scholar. A dense crowd of figures stood on the top of the mountain, listening to the instructions of General Blackbeard, whom Fang Yun had met once:
"... Throw the iron ingots into the cauldron and let the earthly fire melt them. The purpose of this step is to further refine these iron ingots. Remove the impurities and purify them from miscellaneous iron to refined iron. After these refined iron,
It is the material of the armor you are wearing."
"After the iron melts, it is a hundred times of steelmaking. The so-called hundred times of steelmaking, for ordinary craftsmen, means hammering continuously for a hundred days, and each day is a refinement. After a hundred times of refinement, it is a hundred times of steelmaking. But we warriors don't have to
It’s so troublesome. When we warriors build it, we use true energy, gang energy, and aura, which is equivalent to ten times, fifteen times, or twenty times that of ordinary people. But don’t think it’s so easy. It takes at least
Hundreds of kilograms of Hundred-Refined Steel, you can make at most ten kilograms in one day. Therefore, even if you reach the aura level, it will take at least fifty days to prepare a pair of armor of Hundred-Refined Iron. That is more than one
Yue’s effort..."
"Ah! It actually takes so long!"
"Isn't it just a show?"
…
Before General Blackbeard finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar. According to what Li Yu said, they originally thought they would only need to stay for more than ten days, but now it seems that it will take at least a month.
"Quiet!" General Blackbeard shouted angrily, with a voice like thunder: "The training of the scholars of the Great Zhou Dynasty was actually to extract iron ingots from the ore, then forge them into hundreds of steel, and finally forge their own armor. This is
The purpose of your coming to the mine for training. Now that the imperial court has exempted you from the mining process, this is already a great favor. If anyone continues to be wordy, I will immediately send him back to the ore area until he has dug enough ore!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence on the top of the mountain, and everyone stopped talking. Now everyone wants to return to the capital. If they are kicked back to the mining area, the gain will outweigh the loss.
