Chapter 138: New ship

Xiakou hasn't had any major events since Zhuge Liang left. Liu Bei has been actively recruiting troops to buy horses these days. Although he has no money, the troops must pull up first.
Liu Bei wanted to let Liu Yi's workshop produce some armor, but Liu Yi's behavior style of asking for money really made Liu Bei feel helpless. Although the production is all well-equipped, this tens of thousands of daily expenses Not counting the money, the family that Liu Bei got from Liu Qi at this point can't be supported.
"Princess, if you go on like this, don't say that recruiting troops to buy horses is to maintain today's expenses. It's also difficult!" Here, let alone the oil flow, you have to scrape the oil out of yourself. Who can reason?
"How many soldiers are there in our army now?" Liu Bei nodded silently and asked.
"In addition to the more than 5,000 soldiers and horses recruited these days, most of them are untrained soldiers, and many people do not even have weapons in their hands." The quartermaster sighed.
"Where is this?" Liu Bei's eyes widened, although Liu Yi spent a lot of money, but the daily consumption is counted, how much is there a surplus?
"Back to the hero, in this workshop and shipyard, a lot of materials are needed every day, and the generals and soldiers also need food. Our army has money ..." The quartermaster did not say anything in the end, but the meaning was obvious. , Can't hold it anymore, you have to think of a way.
"Go ahead, I will handle this matter, but the soldiers and horses still have to move, don't stop." Liu Bei sighed.
"Hell!" The quartermaster agreed and bowed to retreat.
Liu Bei looked at the direction of the quartermaster leaving, and sighed again. He thought of Zhuge Liang a little bit. In the past, Zhuge Liang gave him an idea when he encountered this kind of thing. But now, there is no one to discuss with him.
Would you like to go to Liu Qi again?
Liu Bei shook his head, Liu Qi was not lenient there, Jing Xiang was captured, Liu Qi had to support tens of thousands of troops, and it was already good to give himself these subsidies, and it would be shameless to go there again.
At this moment, Zhang Fei hummed in an unknown key, carrying a few pieces of wood and walking over there. The look of Liu Bei's face was weird. Why?
Coincidentally Guan Yu also walked towards himself, Liu Bei quickly waved his hand, pointing at Zhang Feidao "Yun Chang, do you know what Yide is doing in recent days?"
"It seems that he was going to the place where the craftsman Zhonglang will be." Guan Yu knew.
"Ah?" Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu. Isn't the relationship between these two people not good? The atmosphere was so embarrassing on the first day. Why is Zhang Fei running now?
By the way, Liu Yi.
Liu Bei suddenly remembered, Zhu Geliang said before leaving, if there is anything undecidable, you can find Liu Yi to discuss, but Liu Yi has been busy building ships these days, Liu Yi subconsciously uses Liu Yi as a powerful craftsman , But neglected this aspect.
"Go and see." Liu Bei took Guan Yu toward the dock. First, he asked Liu Yi if he had any plans. Second, he also wanted to see what Zhang Fei was doing.
...
Outside the dock, a building ship stands on the surface of the river. The hull is quite large. The width of the ship is three feet, and the length is seven or eight feet. Compared with the narrow and long ship, the building ship in front of you feels a little chunky. .
"Prepare, calibrate the target, eighty steps ahead, yes, that is the crooked neck tree on the river bank, add bombs!" But seeing the bank, Liu Yi stood side by side with Zhang Fei, Liu Yi holding a flag in his hand , What is commanding, shouting horns to the ship.
Liu Bei and Guan Yu approached and found out that the original ship was attic behind the ship, but at the other end were two catapults, and at the end there was a reduced version of the bed crossbow. The crossbow is busy around, it looks like it is ready to fire.
Liu Bei was a little curious and did not interrupt. He just watched Guan Yu. He also wanted to see the power of this building.
"put!"
"Crunch ~"
"Boom ~"
With Liu Yi's order, the two catapults and bed crossbows started simultaneously. With a roar, two stone bombs landed on both sides of the crooked neck tree over a distance of 80 steps, splashing two huge Splash, the crossbow arrow was shot on the crooked neck tree, and directly shot through the tree stem.
"Okay!" Liu Bei's eyes lit up and could not help but cheer loudly, and the craftsmen around him also cheered.
"Measuring the distance the ship moves!" Liu Yi said to the craftsman who was responsible for the survey.
But I saw a craftsman riding a small boat and pulling it with a roll of hemp rope under the ship. Then he tied the hemp rope for a period and took out a ruler on the boat to measure it. The boat moved more than four feet and three inches. "
"Failed again?" Zhang Fei said uncomfortably.
"No failure." Liu Yi shook his head, turned to look at Zhang Fei, suddenly pushed him, Zhang Fei shook his body, but Liu Yi withdrew two steps.
"Bo Yuan, what do you mean?" Zhang Fei frowned at Liu Yi.
"The effects of power are mutual. Just like this, when I push you, there will be a force pushing towards myself. The same is true for the warship. When the stone bullets and crossbows are shot out, there must be a force to push the warship. If it is on the ground and the base is fixed, this force will be borne by the ground, but it will not work above the water. The water is soft and cannot fully withstand this force, unless the ship is continuously enlarged to such a strong anti-shock force It is only possible to shake the hull, but for such a big ship, we ca n’t do it now.
Liu Yi is now preparing a book combining the mechanics of the Mohists and the mechanics that he knows, and his own bookman next to him will quickly These words were recorded, and after the end, Liu Yi compiled these contents.
"The reason seems very simple." Zhang Fei groped for a needle-like beard on his chin and nodded.
"It's not too difficult, but no one records these simple truths, and these truths are just the foundation, but how to use them is ever-changing." Liu Yi laughed. "This building ship, no need to change."
Excellent ship stability +26, range +28, speed +27, fighting spirit +29, energy recovery +27
In these few days of experimentation, this warship is one of the best attributes, and the shipbuilding experience of these days has also become more and more perfect. The next step is to build more ships.
"Bo Yuan's good means, if there are more such warships, why fear Cao Cao?" Liu Bei came out of the crowd, looked at the building ship in front of him with amazement, and smiled at Liu Yi.
"Cao Jun is not afraid of the water, and when this thing is fighting Cao Jun, it is best not to show it." Liu Yi bowed slightly to Liu Bei and smiled.
"Why is this?" Liu Bei wondered.
"According to Kong Ming's plan, I hope that Jiang Dong's soldiers and Cao Jun will be crippled, and our army will take advantage of the fishing." Liu Yi pointed to the warship. "There are clouds in the art of war, and this is the reason why it can not be shown. Although our army joined forces with Sun Quan, Jiangdong was more powerful than our army. If this thing was revealed too early, it would only cause Jiangdong to be afraid, and at the same time ask our army to send its troops in full force. At that time, they were mutually suspicious and could not join hands. Fighting against the enemy is not as weak as showing, so Jiangdong fights Cao Cao with all his strength. Our army supports him from the side. The uncle is assured that there are a hundred small boats enough to help Jiangdong succeed. "
"Bo Yuan, what is your intention to create this thing?" Zhang Fei puzzled.
"After Cao Cao's retreat, our army captured the land of Jingzhou. Since then, it has been able to quickly capture the city as a strange soldier. Secondly, when this ship is present, it can also deter Jiangdong!" Liu Yi laughed. "This thing is only available when the Jiangling is captured. , The rest of the time, it must not be exposed to others. "
"No wonder you asked Wei Yan to marry them here," Zhang Fei said suddenly.
Liu Bei remembered what Liu Yi said on that day, and then look at that building ship. These days, a little mustard produced by Liu Yi's spending like running water disappeared instantly. With this kind of weapon, no amount of money is worth the cost. .
"But don't know the geometry of this ship?" Liu Bei asked suddenly.
"The materials are not that much. A boat is about 5,000 yuan, plus the worker's money, the cost of a boat is only about 6,000 yuan." Liu Yi laughed.
Of course, if you sell it upside down, then do n’t want to take it away if you do n’t have 100,000 yuan. Of course, who would sell this kind of thing?
This year, especially in times of war, no one cares about environmental issues, the materials are cheaper, and the ship does not need any special materials. It only needs to process the wood once, even without spending money to buy it, you can do it by organizing your own personnel. The cost of shipbuilding is not too high.
Liu Bei nodded, the price is not expensive, and it is nice to have a shipbuilder of his own.
After expressing emotion, Liu Bei said to Liu Yi, "Bo Yuan, there is something to discuss with you."
"Uncle please." Liu Yi pointed in the direction of the dock and pointed at Liu Bei.
The two took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all the way to the gazebo outside the dock. Liu Yi asked Wei Yan to guard around him, and Mo wanted to bring people closer.
"Uncle, please say." Liu Yi sat on the stone bench and said to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei had some ideas to let Liu Yi collect some to save some expenses ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But he didn't mention it at the moment, but just told Liu Yi about the current plight, and some looked at Liu Yidao "I don't know Can Bo Yuan have a solution? "
"The solution is not difficult." Liu Yi smiled.
"Oh?" Liu Bei asked, "I would like to hear more."
"First, take some of the replaced weapons and exchange some food with Mr. Qi." Liu Yisi asked.
"This ..." Liu Bei smiled bitterly. "We are now recruiting soldiers and horses, and the replaced armor and armor are used by new recruits, I am afraid it is ..."
Liu Yi nodded and thought, "The second is that these craftsmen."
"Ah?" Liu Bei looked at Liu Yi. "What do you say?"
It was disappointing to send someone's money and change hands to recover it.
"The uncle is assured that it is not a looting. I will build some cauldrons later. The uncle can order people to open some posthouses nearby. The food produced by these cauldrons will smell ten miles, which will attract them to spend money to eat." Yi smiled.
"Bo Yuan, this army also serves food. Will they eat it?" Zhang Fei puzzled.
"I will know when I come out." Liu Yi did not explain. The group of artisans are now paid a hundred a day. In Xiakou, they can be regarded as rich people. If they are satisfied with their food and clothing, they will naturally have a higher pursuit, but this also It ’s just an emergency, it ’s better to attract people to consume. It ’s just that Liu Yi does n’t know much about the consumption level of Xiakou people, so I can only focus on my own group of people first, and slowly see if it works. If it's okay, do some other business to form an economic cycle chain, and finally the money will turn around and come back.
Liu Bei was a little doubtful, but he didn't ask much. Until now, let the dead horse be a living horse doctor. Now he entrusted this matter to Liu Yi and took Guan Yu to inspect the military camp.
