Several boatmen leading the way held the torches and quickly lit candlesticks.
Yan Bing, who slowly walked into the cabin, was so happy that his nose bubbles were almost sprayed out. Every design here was exactly the same as the details she drew in the picture. The cabin was full of lanterns wrapped in iron wire, and a candle twice as thick as a thumb was inserted into the lanterns. Looking around, two rows shone to the bow, which was very spectacular!
The reason why Yan Bing chose candles instead of oil lamps for lighting is that the candles are not only a solid, but will not cause spills during the ship's driving, but will not cause irrescue fires in the bumpy waves.
On both sides of each cannon position, there is a wooden barrel filled with fine sand. The barrels are directly mounted on the floor. These fine sands are the best fire extinguishing equipment to deal with various fire sources!
Each gun window is equipped with a wooden cover that is easy to switch. When it is ready to fire the gun, the cover is opened. When it encounters strong winds and waves, it is all closed. Just above these gun windows is an open iron pipe. Moreover, these pipes are equipped from the first floor, to the second floor, even the third floor, four floors, and five floors. After they surround the cabin for a week, they finally lead to the captain's room, the helm room, and the observation deck...
That's right, these pipes... are the earliest prototypes of the phone... to facilitate the captain and the first mate to accurately reach the corresponding floor with each order!
There are no artillery positions on the deck of the warship. All artillery is hidden in the floors below the deck. This is to prevent the uncovered gun positions from being hit by the opponent's shells and causing a death-destruction! The iron sheet inlaid outside the running window of each floor is also to minimize the possibility of death-destruction!
As for the most important material reserves such as artillery shells and launching drugs, Yan Bing is hidden at the bottom of the cabin. When the warship is fully loaded, the huge tonnage will completely press the bottom of the warship below the sea. This design is to allow our warship to bear no matter how many shells the warship will bear, it will not be touched by the gunpowder depot below the sea! 81Zw.????m
Of course, with the current advanced level and range of Liang's artillery, the opponent may not have the opportunity to enter enough range and will be sunk by us, but we are afraid that everything will be in case... After all, Yan Bing still understands the principle of being careful of sailing a ten thousand-year-old ship.
The food and fresh water reserves were designed by Yan Bing on the fourth floor below the third-layer fortress. In order to facilitate the transmission of materials and ammunition between all ship layers, Yan Bing also specially installed a small black technology object...
Winch crane…
To put it bluntly... it's just that there is no electricity... the elevator...
Pure human-powered driving, relying on multi-connection gear sets, cannons, ammunition, and can also be loaded with food and fresh water, which greatly improves the efficiency of material transmission.
For similar cranes, each warship has six parts, four of which are hidden in the cabin, in order to avoid damage during combat and reduce the efficiency of material delivery. The other two parts are installed on the deck, and the shelves are usually fixed. When the ship needs to carry large supplies by the port, the fixing lock will be released, and the shelves will be lowered directly from above the deck to the ground of the port, and then the cargo will be moved to the deck with a winch...
Before this, it can be used to ship cannons first!
Four forty-two-pound ship head cannons, four forty-six-pound ship stern cannons, and a total of one hundred twenty-four-pound side cannons. Such firepower ratio has far exceeded that of Europe's first-class strategic ships! It has reached the level of super-class...
Although Spain has built several giants with more than 130 artillery guns in the history of Europe, the majority of these 130 artillery are six-pound small artillery, supplemented by a small number of twelve-pound artillery and twenty-four-pound artillery, which also leads to our far behind in terms of range and power.
This country has a land area of only 500,000 square kilometers, but it is difficult to support such huge expenses. It has only built three super-class battleships in total. Liang Kingdom built a total of twelve super-class battleships from the beginning. This is the gap in national strength between the two countries...
In Yan Bing's plan, these twelve main warships are both the beginning and the end. In the future, she will only choose the second-level or third-level strategic ships to be built as firepower because she has a better choice...
Steam engine battleship!
Internal combustion engine warship!
Internal combustion engine aircraft carrier!
These "monsters" will gradually replace all sailing strategic ships in the near future and become a new round of maritime overlords!
Since you know this, why bother investing too much in the sailing warship?
It's enough...
At this time, Yan Bing was trembling with excitement and slowly walked out of the cabin of the battleship...
With the blessing of light skills, I jumped onto the observation deck at the top of the warship and looked into the distance...
The sky is level with the sea, the clouds are blending with the sunset, and seagulls are floating in the sky with the rising air of the ocean, and waves of tides are surging on the golden sea surface...
"It's so cool!!! It's so cool!!!"
A scream of excitement made all the craftsmen on the boat board stunned... They looked at each other, but did not dare to say anything... They just raised their necks to look at the "black spot" at the high place...
After a while, he watched the "black spot" sprint down from the watchtower, and in the exclamation of everyone, he slowly landed on the bow of the giant ship...
Yan Bing patted the splint, then turned around and walked towards everyone, shouting loudly: "I have decided! This flagship ranked first! This is named 'Xuansi'!!"
"ah!??"
The craftsmen exclaimed again, and then the craftsmen led by the leader jogged over and came to Yan Bing to whisper, "Prince! This is a taboo!"
"What are the taboos and no taboos!? Can I still not know what my father's temper is? This warship is named Xuansi. My father is too happy! I will definitely not be angry!"
"No... the prince... whether the emperor was angry or not, I have no way to know, but you named it like this... the court blamed him..."
"Just say it was decided by me! If you have any objections, let them come to find me! And this bow image! It will also be carved into my father's appearance! I want my father to see the warships of Liang Kingdom with his own eyes invincible! Dominate the Seven Oceans!" Yan Bing waved his hand and ran to the deck with a blush, bowing to everyone and shouting: "All shipmen have worked hard in the past two years! I will never let you sweat in vain! Now I reward you with a small wine, and wait for tomorrow! I personally give the reward silver!!"
"And...?Silver reward!??"
A group of ship workers looked at each other's surprised expressions on their faces and quickly bowed...
