Chapter 968 Launching Ceremony
The feeling of having a real warship for the first time is incomparable.

Putting it into the real world before, let alone Porsche and Ferrari, those supercars are not comparable to such a sailing warship. What can be more exciting than driving a sailing warship on the sea? Woolen cloth.

Cannons and giant ships are the romance of men.

After getting off the ship, Fang Fang's mind was full of this warship, and even in his dreams at night, he dreamed that he was driving a warship to ride the wind and waves.

Hearing Fang Fang's ramblings like "raise the sails" and "full rudder", Song Zhixi, who was sleeping beside him, just smiled softly, then closed his eyes and continued to sleep peacefully.

In order to name this warship, Equation also racked its brains.

In the end, it was through discussions at the regular meeting that this warship was given a very meaningful name "Wan Guo".

The name "Wanguo" was quickly agreed by everyone, and it was finalized immediately. No matter what the name of the ship was before Wanguo took over, "Wanguo" is its new name from now on. Your destiny will be tied to the nations, and you will start your new journey in this brand new world.

"What about the flags? Flags must be hung on ships, right?" Wei Lin asked.

"Do you need to design a new flag?" Li Qingman looked at Equation, asking for his opinion.

Fang Fang waved his hand and said, "No, our Wan Guo flag will be flown on the Wan Guo in the future, and no matter where we go, we must let others know that this is our Wan Guo's ship."

Asai Ichiko said: "Then I will go to prepare and try to get the new flag out before launching into the water tomorrow."

Speaking of launching, Equation has been busy these days.

At present, the Wanguo is stranded on the beach, and most of the hull is exposed out of the water.

Such a result also brought some benefits, making it easier for people from all over the world to go up and down. Equation also selected 100 recruits from those recruits, changed their organization from soldiers to crew members, and brought them here every day. To the deck, familiar with the operation of the sailboat.

It was very difficult at the beginning, because I didn’t have any experience of working on a sailboat, including the equations. Facing such a big guy with hundreds of parts on it, I didn’t know how to proceed. .

Fortunately, the ship was stranded on the beach, and the people on it could do whatever they wanted without worrying about being swept away by the waves or going astray.

After a few days of proficiency, coupled with the constant study and exploration of the equation, I roughly figured out the operation method of the sailboat.

There are four sails on the sailboat. There is a triangular sail on the long mast protruding from the bow, and then there are three tall masts on the hull, each of which can hoist a huge sail. This is the most classic three-hand sail in history. In the shape of a masted sailing ship, these sails can perfectly utilize the wind force to allow the sailing ship to sail on the sea.

The wisdom of navigators is praiseworthy. As long as you make good use of these sails, no matter whether it is tailwind or headwind, you can let the ship sail forward on the sea.

These days, Equation took the crew to practice how to raise the sail, how to adjust the angle of the sail, and prepare for the upcoming launching ceremony.

Li Qingman asked worriedly: "Is it really possible? Do you want to get acquainted with it for a while longer?"

Fang Fang said confidently: "I have almost mastered it, so I don't need to be familiar with it anymore. It is more effective to go directly into the water and use actual combat to improve experience."

"Okay then." Li Qingman would not stop the idea of ​​the equation, but he still couldn't help worrying about it. After such a big boat is launched, it is definitely not as easy for beginners to master as imagined. Sylvia, let's go together, I'm at ease when she's here."

"I will take her with me." Fang Fang nodded.

Hathaway was not in the parliament hall, she was a special case.

In terms of identity, Hathaway is not an official of Wanguo, so there is no need to attend the regular meeting of Wanguo, and Hathaway herself does not like crowded scenes, and more often she likes to be alone quietly, except when she is with Equation , so most of the time Hathaway is alone and will not appear on such occasions.

The next day was the planned launch of the Wanguo.

The launching of any ship is no small event, and even launching a ship from a shipyard in modern society is cause for celebration.

In order to celebrate the launching ceremony, relevant people and others have made preparations early.

The new flag prepared by Ishiko Asai for the Wanguo has been hung on the tallest mast in the middle.

The sea breeze was blowing, and the shield flag of the nations was fluttering in the wind. Witnessing the launch of the first warship of the nations, the people who came to watch the launching ceremony felt a sense of pride.

On the beach, in addition to the people who came to watch, there were also officials, soldiers and security personnel from Wan Guo. Everyone in Wan Guo came to witness this grand event.

In the anticipation of everyone, Fang Fang appeared on the beach, followed by his wife Li Qingman, and the beautiful siren princess Hathaway.

"It's the Consul, the Consul is here!"

"Long live the consul!"

"..."

The crowd immediately became restless, and everyone was shouting the name of the equation.

And Equation also enjoys this feeling of being supported by others. It is no exaggeration for IWC to say that Equation has unrivaled prestige.

After leading all nations to repel powerful enemies many times, he is the god of this country, and all the people regard him as the supreme existence.

When we came to the side of the ship, the crew on it had already lowered the rope ladder.

Fang Fang turned his head and waved to the people who were waiting to see through, which caused the crowd to shout even more deafeningly.

"With Hathaway accompanying you, I won't go up." Li Qingman said.

"Well, you stay."

Fang Fang hugged Li Qingman, kissed her forehead, then climbed up the rope ladder and started to board the ship.

After the equation, Hathaway smiled at Li Qingman, telling her that she would not have to worry about the equation, and that she would take care of the equation.

When Equation and Hathaway came to the ship, the crew had already lined up on the deck to welcome them.

Before the neat queue, Fang Fang glanced at the group of crew members he personally selected, nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand, and ordered: "Sail, set sail!"

With an order, these trained crew members acted separately.

The crew turned the winch vigorously, and the white sail slowly rose from the mast.

At the same time, Blake led the soldiers to lay logs on the route where the sailboat was about to enter the water, and then called the soldiers to work together to push the boat into the water.

All four sails on the ship were also raised at this time, and a gust of wind blew, and the ship rolled on the logs. At first, the speed was very slow, and then it rushed towards the sea surface faster and faster.
