Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 576
In Jiangling Mansion, on this day, it was the second time in a year that more than 20 craftsmen gathered around the river to do one thing.

Both sides of the river were full of soldiers patrolling and guarding, and dozens of warships were moored in the rushing water.

At this moment, Sun Jing, who was then the Minister of the Ministry of War, was standing in the river, leading the fleet.

"let's start."

Liu Feng walked out of the cabin slowly.

He was standing very high. At this moment, on the shore, a child in a python robe was waving at Liu Feng.

"Father."

"Xi'er." Liu Feng saw Sun Shangxiang, Cai Yan, Zhen Mi, Cao Jie and the others, as well as the excited Liu Xi.

In Xuchang, Zhuge Liang is now in charge of the power alone, busy with government affairs, and has no time to go south.

Liu Feng also ordered someone to take Liu Xi south to learn more.

"It's in the water."

With a shout, the bow of the iron-clad ship fell directly towards the water surface. The moment it fell into the water, the entire hull was directly across the river. The 80-meter iron-clad ship was a huge monster, nearly 20 meters high.

The moment Liu Feng entered the water, he held onto the deck tightly with both hands. No matter how high the river splashed, he was wearing a special suit, so even if he fell into the water, he could quickly float up from the river.

"crash"

It sank for a moment at the distance of the hull, and then suddenly floated on the river.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

I don't know who it is, standing by the river and roaring loudly.

Immediately, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians shouted in unison: "Long live Your Majesty."

Liu Feng waved his hand to the surroundings, and shouted at Ma Jun, "Ma Shangshu, let's go."

"Here."

"Om..."

A ship's horn sounded, and then thick smoke drifted out from the long chimney.

The standard configuration of a steamship, starting with coal burning, the cabin is high temperature.

The big chimney above the ship, and the thick black smoke in the driving room...

"Kakkaka..."

Behind the ship, the propeller began to rotate rapidly, pushing the iron-clad ship, cutting through countless water waves from the Yangtze River, and heading upstream.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

People on both sides of the Yangtze River shouted excitedly.

There is no need to paddle, and the hull is still iron.

Made of iron, it can not leak water, and it can also drive extremely fast.

Is this something humans can do?
In this day and age, no one would think it was human power.

Then, it can only be attributed to Liu Feng, the son of heaven.

"Whoa."

The boat stopped on the shore, lowered the gangway, and Liu Feng waved to Liu Xi.

The first prince after the revival of the Han Dynasty jumped up and down, ahead of Sun Shangxiang, and ran towards Liu Feng.

"Hey, prince, please slow down." Liu Xi's personal eunuch chased after him, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up.

"Father, is this the iron-clad ship you mentioned?"

"Ah."

Liu Feng stretched out his arms to pick him up, and brought him to the deck, looking down on both sides of the Yangtze River.

"Hee'er."

"See clearly."

Liu Feng pointed at the shore and waved to the excited people.

"If you want to be a king, you must make your subjects proud of you."

"What is pride?"

"It means that they are unrestrained, come to your side spontaneously, wave to you, kowtow to you, and greet you."

"And ah, but also to make them happy."

"Let them eat and drink."

"They have the time to come and see your grand ceremony and grand occasion after the busy farming season."

"If their stomachs are not full, they won't have the strength to come."

"Father, my child understands." Liu Xi nodded seriously.

"Xi'er, I heard that your bow, horse and long sword are all excellent, and your poetry and songs are not bad. It's a little difficult for a five-year-old child."

"The child is not bitter, but the father has turned darker a lot."

"Ha ha……"

Liu Feng laughed, and led him to the bow of the boat, "Xi'er, Father wants you to remember."

"The road is far away. From my big man to Europa and to Heizhou, there are tens of thousands of miles across the land. Even if it takes a year or two, letters cannot be delivered. Those places, even if they are captured, cannot be defended."

"But if my big man has countless fleets, stationed in the ocean, and firmly controls all the islands along the way, if there is any trouble in those places, you can dispatch a powerful armored fleet to suppress it."

"In the future, the power of the ironclad ship will become an internal combustion engine, which can run ten times faster than a horse."

"Ten times faster than a horse?" Liu Xi was startled. He had ridden a war horse before, and his bay red pony was the king of all horses. Even though it was only a pony, it could run fast. Very fast.

In this world, there is something that can run ten times faster than a horse, which completely subverts his cognition.

"Yes, ten times."

"So, Xi'er, the development of the navy in the future is the top priority of my man."

"Father, my child has recorded it."

"Then there is gunpowder."

"firearm."

"Flintlock rifles, you've seen them before, and I've also shown you the scene of rifled guns firing. It's shocking enough, isn't it?"

"Ah."

"That's not even close."

"Thousands of years later, Father believes that there will be stronger and more powerful cannons that can destroy the entire Xuchang City with one shot."

"what……"

Liu Xi was startled, "Father, how can there be such a powerful cannon in this world."

"There will always be."

"If we were the emperor of the Liu family, we wouldn't be able to rule the world."

"The world is in chaos. For those forces that have defected, our research and development cannot keep up with them."

"From now on, our descendants will be attacked by this kind of artillery."

"Do you understand it?"

Liu Xi nodded heavily, "Father, don't worry, my son will definitely not let this happen."

"Whoever offends my strong man will be punished even if he is far away."

"well said."

Liu Feng picked him up again and walked towards the cabin.

"Besides this sentence, what else did I teach you before I let you go to Taiyuan Academy?"

"Father, you also said: A man should be self-improving, and a young man is strong, so the country is strong."

"well said."

"You remember all these for me."

"Remember it for a lifetime, and pass it on."

"You are five years old now."

"I will wait for you until you are able to frighten the imperial court and coerce overseas, then hand over the country to you, and travel the world by myself."

"But when you choose the next emperor, you have to learn from me."

"Cultivate it early."

"If it's too late, you're getting older..."

"Or if someone gets old, gets sick and dies in the middle, and the prince left behind is too young, then he may not be able to hold on to the great succession."

"You know what will happen if you can't hold back."

"The relatives of the powerful ministers, other princes seize power."

"So, this gun must be in the hands of our own people."

"Your instructor is Wang Shuang, I asked Lu Xun, who returned to Beijing to report on his work, to teach you as well."

"Just call him sir."

"Yes, Father."
