Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 169 Zheng He's Treasure Ship, Hunting Whales and Sharks?
"Om~"

When the horn sounded throughout Hepu Port, the 10,000+ people near the port all looked at the behemoth moored in the port, which had been assembled for two or three months.

"Nine masts and twelve sails, powered by sailors and oars at the bottom of the cabin. The oars controlled by the sailors are divided into gear force arm oars and straight arm oars. If they are driven with all their strength, the speed of the boat should be three times that of the Jiaolong warship. above!"

Xu Sheng listened to Zheng He's introduction, his eyes showed a look of horror, such a big thing, you tell me it can run faster than my Xiaolong King Kong?
He glanced to the side, his flagship, a five-story ship nearly 40 meters long, with a huge "Xu" battle flag on the bow.

In front of Zheng He's treasure ship, which is 140 meters long, that is the younger brother.

"The hull is all wood, with shovel nails, iron curium, shovel nails, and leech nails. The structure is stable. There are five floors from the bilge to the deck. There are three poops at the stern and two forecastles at the bow."

"There are a total of thirty cannons on the hull, eight Flang machines, and 22 red cannons."

"It's just that there are fewer projectiles. There are only more than 70 rounds. If you use them, they will be gone. Our gunpowder workshop will not be able to produce them in a short period of time. At least we will have to wait for a year or a half."

Having said that, Zheng He walked to the bow and pointed to the two honeycomb-like quiveres placed on the deck, "This is a swarm of bees."

"They are the two finished products that I played to the lord."

"Ignite the match, and in a short breath, 160 arrows burst out in a swarm, and the flying speed is extremely fast, it can shoot 32 steps, but it's a pity that the accuracy is not good. Originally, we used only [-] arrows. A swarm of bees, at this moment, in order to enhance our combat capability at sea, this thing also increases the number of arrows."

After speaking, Zheng He brought Xu Sheng to the vicinity of the cabin again.

Twenty bed crossbows and ten small catapults immediately caught Xu Sheng's attention.

"The catapult can throw five hundred steps, and the winch is fixed on the ship. As long as the warship is stable and firm, it can exert extremely strong power. The thing thrown is a fierce oil bomb. As long as this thing is ignited in advance and thrown out, If it falls on the enemy ship, it will not be extinguished by pouring water, and it only takes a dozen altars to burn a five-story dragon warship."

"On the bed crossbow, in addition to the two-foot-long giant arrow, there is also a black powder explosive bag made by the gunpowder workshop. It's only twenty catties, and there are a lot of barbed wire mixed in it, as long as it falls on the enemy ship and explodes, the lethality is absolutely astonishing."

Xu Sheng was secretly surprised, and the next breath, the warship began to slowly sail out of the port.

The 140-51-meter behemoth is [-] meters wide even if it is [-] meters wide. When moving, there cannot be any warships around.

Riding the wind and waves, when hundreds of boatmen stepped on the pedals together, the gears turned, and the warship began to travel across the sea at high speed.

"Whoo~"

In the distance, more than ten miles away, a huge monster suddenly jumped out of the sea and slammed into the sea.

"crash"

The rain surged up all over the sky and sprinkled a large area.

"there."

Xu Sheng's eyes suddenly brightened. Now the sea is clear and cloudless, and his vision is excellent. With his sharp eyesight, even if he is ten miles away, he can't escape.

After all, the figure of this whale salamander is quite big.

It was about 20 meters long, and they couldn't recognize what species it was.

"Prepare the bed crossbow!~"

Xu Sheng raised one hand violently, and the twenty bed crossbows opened their bows and arrows almost simultaneously, and began to aim into the distance.

"Whoo~"

The next time he jumped out of the sea, the salamander had already swam half a mile away.

"Raise the sails, sail at full speed, and at least get within one mile before you can shoot the arrow."

"Here."

One mile is five hundred steps.

Within [-] steps, the bed crossbow is only accurate. If it exceeds [-] steps, the bed crossbow shoots out. Although the elevation angle is sufficient, after the free fall, it is unknown where it went.

"Whoo~"

The nine masts turned together, and the twelve sails swelled up with the strong wind! ~
Driven by the wind, the speed of the warship suddenly doubled.

Under Xu Sheng's surprised eyes, the distance between him and the whale salamander was rapidly closing.

Ten miles
five miles
Sanri
one mile

"Let go!~"

Xu Sheng saw the whale salamander in front jumping high from the sea again, twenty arrows, like meteors chasing the moon, hit the air directly with a scream.

"Swish"

Twelve or thirteen arrows pierced directly into the sea, and the remaining few pierced into the back of the salamander.

"Whoa..."

A huge monster with a length of more than 20 meters rolling and struggling under the seabed is the most terrifying.

But the more it struggled, the more blood flowed.

In just a dozen breaths, the entire sea was dyed red.

"Drop the anchor, and drag this behemoth onto the warship." Xu Sheng ordered abruptly.

"No rush." ​​Zheng He stretched out his hand to stop him, pointing to the large dorsal fins cruising over the sea surface, counting them in detail, I'm afraid there are no less than twenty or thirty.

"Are they all sea wolves (sharks)?" Xu Sheng's eyes showed a bit of fear, and he saw that Zheng He had ordered the sergeants to come to the side of the ship with twenty explosive packs.

"Get ready!~"

Seeing countless sharks with their bloody mouths open, they swarmed up, snatched the carcass of the salamander that Zheng He's treasure ship hunted this time, and started to eat it.

"Light it up!~"

Twenty explosive packs were suddenly ignited.

In an instant, a pungent smell flew up along with sparks.

"Let go!~"

With an order, twenty explosive packets were thrown into the water.

"Straight oar out of the water, evacuate at full speed."

The moment the explosive package was thrown, Zheng He had already ordered to escape from this sea area.

After driving for less than half a mile, the ground shook for a while, and dozens of sharks in the explosion area had already turned into pieces of flesh and blood...

A series of turbulent and turbulent waves poured towards the surroundings.

Zheng He stood at the bow of the ship, holding the side of the ship with one hand, watching the waves of the sea surge up wave after wave, beat on the side of the ship, poured into the deck, but could not destroy this treasure ship of Zheng He.

There was a confident smile on his face.

"Captain Xu, we have such a sharp weapon."

"There is also Zheng He's treasure ship, which is the world's number one."

"Do you think our army can beat the Jiangdong Navy?"

Amidst the noisy voice, Xu Sheng looked at the raging and angry sea.

"Of course it can."

"The sea monster whale salamander was directly shot by us. Even these sea wolves are vulnerable."

"Could it be that there are still warships in this world that can beat them at sea?"

"There is a Zheng He treasure ship, which is enough to destroy the Kuaiji Navy!"

Xu Sheng grinned at the corner of his mouth, showing absolute confidence.
