Before the imperial court officially announced this decision, Zeng Yi took the first step and told several player guilds about the news. Of course, the first one to tell it was Hua Qianyuexia. Zeng Yi was afraid that if he didn't tell this girl first, he would be the next one.
When they meet again, this girl will eat him. Of course, Zeng Yi didn't say it clearly. After all, the court has not announced it to the public yet, but Zeng Yi told him to ask them to prepare a sum of money, and the court will come up with good things.
Afterwards, of course, this news was also told to Jingfeng Yangming and others. Although Zeng Yi didn't say it clearly, these guys were smarter than the other. They all guessed something from Zeng Yi's words, and each of them still raised funds. Suddenly, several guilds
Raising funds makes other guilds, especially those who are among the top ten guilds like Tianxiang Guild, Fengyun Tianxia Guild and other guilds, very confused and eager to know what they are raising funds for.
But the guilds who know the news are not stupid. They all understand that the imperial court wants to sell warships. Although there are a lot of warships, there will definitely only be so many in a short time. For so many big guilds, the number is simply not enough, so in order to
Try to reduce competitors as much as possible. These guilds are kept strictly confidential. Only Hua Qian Yuexia and the two hall masters of Xiang Tianxiang Guild know the real reason for raising funds.
However, although other guilds did not know the reason, they also prepared a sum of funds just in case. When the imperial court actually opened the first-class battleships, these guilds who had prepared funds realized how important the decision was at that time.
So witty.
The transformation of those wooden warships is actually very simple, that is, adding armor on both sides and ballistae. These things are all ready-made and can be assembled directly. The speed is very fast. In less than a week, those imperial naval forces were eliminated.
All the warships that came down have been renovated. The imperial court also officially issued an announcement.
On the day the announcement was released, these guilds immediately began to take action, one by one, dozens of warships in one day, and the imperial court took action. The guilds who obtained the warships were very happy, especially when they had already obtained some
The second-level auxiliary ironclad guild has a main battleship, and their guild can form a small fleet by itself, so that they can also expand their maritime power.
The NPCs were also very happy, especially the navy. Dozens of warships were launched and they earned two to three million silver. Although the court intercepted half of the money, the rest was enough for the navy to waste for a while.
Subsequent funds were in place, and the transformation of the imperial court's first-class ironclads was accelerated again. A few days later, under the witness of Zeng Yi and others, the first batch of ironclads to be equipped by the imperial court finally completed the transformation. The battleships to be equipped by the imperial court were finally completed.
, compared with the Jiaolong, the artillery has not been reduced, but the caliber is very different. As for the main gun on the Jiaolong, the imperial warship is only equipped with less than one-third, and the rest are artillery of different calibers.
In terms of firepower, it is definitely not as good as the Jiaolong, but between cost, firepower, and speed, this is the best solution that the shipbuilding masters can come up with.
Although the warships to be installed by the imperial court are not the strongest in terms of firepower, they must be the most cost-effective and stable warships. With the launch of the imperial navy's own battleship, the Jiaolong has finally completed its mission, and the navy's own battleship has been launched.
They began to take on various experimental tasks. Even the sailors on the Jiaolong were laid off. The Navy's first batch of sailors had already left the army. They would be trained later and they would be the instructors.
The Jiaolong, which was completely liberated, finally began to go to sea. The reason why the four of Zeng Yi and others were eager to go to sea was actually because those guilds obtained the first-class battleships. Since these guilds obtained the first-class battleships, they have become a little drifting and a little uncomfortable.
They care too much about the Jiaolong. Not long after they obtained the first-class battleship, these guilds probably wanted to test the power of the first-class battleship, and they even jointly wanted to attack the Ryukyu Islands.
Ryukyu was actually a small country before. After the rise of the island country, it was destroyed by the island country. However, Ryukyu is an archipelago, not very big, and not rich in resources. For the big countries in ancient times, it was not too important.
After the island nation destroyed Ryukyu, it did not invest much effort. Later, it actually became a paradise for pirates and bandits.
These guilds united and wanted to try out the newly obtained first-class battleships. It would be appropriate to target Ryukyu, but they did not contact Zeng Yi. If this matter had been left in the past, they would definitely do it. Player
The strongest battleship among them is the Jiaolong, but now, Zeng Yi has not been wooed at all, and the Jiaolong is no longer in his sights.
The players still don't know that the Jiaolong has been upgraded again. According to their understanding of the Jiaolong, the battleship they got is actually not much different from the Jiaolong. Although the defense is definitely a little worse, it is only a dozen or so crossbows.
The firepower is very close to that of the Jiaolong. For them, the Jiaolong is completely dispensable. In their hearts, even if one battleship cannot compare with the Jiaolong, two, three, and four ships can definitely compare with it.
Dragon number.
In order to protect overseas interests, especially the interests of island countries, Zeng Yi must let the player guilds know that the Jiaolong is still the most powerful battleship. Otherwise, if Zeng Yi dares to guarantee it, those guilds will definitely find reasons to kick the four of them out in the future.
They belong to the island country's interest group. Who said they only have four people? Even the blood-clad guards only have more than 2,000 people.
"Brothers, it's time for us to show off! Let's go to Ryukyu too!"
"Hey, we don't have to take action right away. We can wait until the players are exhausted, and then we take action!"
"Are you so sure that the players will be defeated?" The boss looked at Zeng Yi curiously and said.
Zeng Yi smiled: "I, Jin Yiwei, have information about Ryukyu. Ryukyu is not as weak as it seems. Although it does not have much maritime power, Ryukyu now has not only island powers, but also pirate powers. Let's put it this way. In fact, Ryukyu has
The most powerful ones are those pirates. Although the pirate warships are lagging behind, they have rich combat experience and there are many ships. Players may not necessarily be able to make a profit."
