Chapter 182 Chapter 182 New Ship, New Classroom

Burners, off sea.

On the mast of a sailing ship, a young sailor squints at the billowing black smoke on the horizon.

He didn't know what it was, but he knew that it was also advancing, and its speed was much faster than their boat.

Because the black smoke was moving in the direction of their sailboat, and the place where the black smoke was coming out was moving forward at a high speed, much faster than the sailboat he was on.

The Flying Fish sailing ship is a well-known fast sailing ship in the vicinity. When it was designed, it was prepared to use its speed to throw off pirates and ensure the safety of its cargo.

So this cargo sailing ship is a well-known fast ship, with a speed close to 30 kilometers per hour!But in front of the billowing black smoke, the sailboat's speed was obviously not enough.

A legend has recently been circulated among sailors that a monster haunts the vicinity of the Port of Burnas.Its speed is faster than the fastest battleship, and no one has ever seen the true face of that monster.

According to legend, all the sailboats that saw the monster were sunk by the monster, and the sailors were also eaten.So that black-smoky monster has been elusive, making many people very worried.

Even the officials of Bunas Port were alarmed, and sent two armed merchant ships to cruise in the monster-infested waters, warning those approaching merchant ships and persuading them to leave quickly.

But because the ocean is too vast, there will always be passing merchant ships slipping through the net. They will see the black smoke billowing on the sea, but they will not be able to catch up with the owner of the black smoke.

Sailors who can sail on the ocean are more or less adventurous.Many times, they really want to take a look at this mysterious, never-before-seen "monster".

At this moment, the sailors on the monster, or the sailors on the first steam-powered warship of the Datang Group, are operating the most powerful warship in the world, cutting through the surging waves.

Their battleship sailed at sea, and black smoke rose from two funnels.Seagulls hovered over the bow, and the wooden deck reflected a warm glow in the sun.

A slave sailor from the Poplar Kingdom, who has recovered his status as a commoner, wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked towards the sea level in the distance.

Life on this ship is really blissful. They have warm water to drink and plenty of vegetables. Even fighting is much easier and more enjoyable than other warships.

After all, naval battles these days are divided into two types: boarding battles and artillery battles.Regardless of whether it was a boarding battle or an artillery battle, the steam ironclad ships of the Datang Group obviously crushed the existence of the entire era.

The first is the artillery battle. This kind of warship has a completely enclosed turret, and all the gun positions are safely placed under the protection of steel plates, which is obviously much safer than those wooden hulls.

Soldiers fighting in this environment are naturally more calm, and they can focus more on aiming and firing instead of observing the surrounding situation.

And in the boarding battle, if there is really a wooden sailboat that can get close to this ironclad ship, it will face crazy strafing from two Maxim heavy machine guns...

Enemy sailors who can board a ship with such firepower should be T800-level terrorists.

After recovering his status as a commoner, it was only at this moment that he realized that there are so many beautiful scenery in this world, and only then did he realize that there are so many advanced and weird things in this world.

For the first time, he knew that sailing is such an interesting thing, and he also knew for the first time that naval battles can be so romantic!
Yes, big ships and cannons are always a man's romance!When the enemy only has front-loading guns, you can equip breech-loading guns, and the war is definitely a romantic and interesting thing

That's why Americans love war so much and are so happy to wage war - take F-22 to bully SU-27 or even MIG-21, everyone likes this game mode...

The steel battleship of Datang Group is currently in the stage of sea trials. It is debugging its own equipment and testing its ultimate performance.

During the test, the naval officers of Datang Group's security force manipulated the warship and sank a pirate ship.

The pirate ship was going to escape, but they desperately found that this "burning" ship emitting thick smoke, which they had never seen before, was twice or even three times faster than theirs!
Then, the opponent fired from a very, very far distance, which was far beyond their common sense and understanding of naval warfare.

After being shelled from a long distance, before they could react, they were sent into the bottom of the sea by flowering bombs, that is, grenades.

How could it be possible for a wooden sailboat to resist the bombardment of grenades, and how could it be possible for the naked eye to defeat the crushing of the scope?
As for life, the elven sailor swears to the gods that he had never seen such a comfortable life at sea.

He only lives with 12 sailors of the same position. If according to the previous standards, this is already a luxury suite at sea.

On the sailing ships of the past, sailors, especially slave sailors, had no condition to have their own bedrooms.They can only be crowded with the goods, and they can't even lie up straight and sleep.

Now, they have a comfortable hammock, and there is also a private locker on one side of the fixed hammock, where they can store their personal belongings, such as the ocean-going allowance issued by Datang Group to all sailors.

This was simply unimaginable in the past, not to mention that they could still eat the specially strengthened meals of the navy in the vast ocean.

Every navy standard meal has sun-dried meat or fish, as well as dried vegetables and fruits-yes, fruits!

In order to ensure the vitamin intake of the sailors, Tang Mo made it mandatory for the sailors to eat at least one orange a day.

In addition, carrots and other vegetables were also dried and stored in large quantities in redundant cabins, so that these sailors who were drifting at sea felt the kindness and warmth from the senior management of Datang Group.

Just looking at the food of the navy, it is a level higher than that of the army, so everyone's morale is very high, and the training is also very hard.

The most important thing is that on a warship, there are lightings that were unimaginable before!Light bulbs can be seen everywhere on battleships.

With the lighting, there is more time, so the sailors on this warship have a new and exciting benefit: learning!
They use their off-duty time to learn a lot of practical knowledge and reserve skills for their life after retirement.

Some of these sailors have learned the principles of mechanical power, and can repair steam engines and other equipment on battleships.Some learn electrification, contact, and strong and weak electricity, and strive to become a qualified electrician.

In short, this is a huge modern warship, and it is also a modern school, and every seaman on this warship is also an unlimited high-tech talent in the future.

Compared with their counterparts in this era, they are indeed high-tech talents.They have seen optical sights, semi-automatic loading machines, and the most advanced stargazing equipment.

On their warships, they also learned what a ventilation system is, what a telegraph is, what communication is and what an automatic weapon is.

They have mastered modern naval warfare, and each of them has several times more experience than their peers when they go out. These experiences are enough to support them and become the proud sons of this era.

In the cab, a sailor looked at the pressure gauge in front of him, and loudly reported to the captain standing beside him: "The power system is all normal!"

"The steam engine is stable!" On the other side, a sailor also shouted.

They have been testing the limits of this battleship recently, but after careful experiments, they found that compared to their poor cognition, this battleship can be described as having no limit.

This is like a person who has used a functional phone for a lifetime and suddenly changed to a Huawei P30. For him, this mobile phone is simply the ultimate mobile phone of the next generation. It takes him a lot of time to figure out all the functions of this mobile phone. .

Before seeing this battleship, if someone told them that they could reach distant lands in the boundless sea, they would definitely laugh and ridicule the other party as crazy.

Inside a pipeline communicator, the voice of the sailor officer on the lower deck reported: "The structure of the hull is normal! There is no abnormal sound!"

Seeing that the warship was advancing at full speed, the waves on the bow were not serious, and the adjutant also said to his captain: "The waves on the bow are slight, no problem! It will not affect the firing of the main gun!"

The captain nodded slightly. Today's sea conditions are very good, so there is no problem with his battleship—these days, his battleship has undergone a series of tests and has proved its superiority.

At this time, the plain but exciting good news came from the lower deck through the communication channel: "The power system is normal!"

And in the telegraph room behind the bridge, a non-commissioned officer who received the telegram took off his earphones and shouted loudly: "The telegram communication... is smooth!"

Everyone is excited, the third test has been completely successful, what they need to do now is to send this good news back to Burnas.

The war is over, and the Cyric Consortium will not be able to restore its system in the Kingdom of Wright for a moment - time is on the side of the Datang Group.

The ships going to Heilong Island for reconnaissance are estimated to have returned. If they also bring back good news, then the plan to emigrate to Heilong Island and seize the island will be implemented.

Everything was developing in a favorable direction, and everything was developing as Tang Mo planned.

"Change the course! Prepare to return!" The captain stood on his command position and gave the order to return with pride: "Send a telegram to the master and tell him! Our sea trial was very successful!"
-
Thanks to the emperor for the reward!Thank you very much for His Majesty the Emperor's support all the time.
