Vol 3 Chapter 1357: -Let’s start with the sea

Standing in front of the half-built battleship of Usma, the thief felt awkward.
Without him, the main reason is that the ship doesn't look like a warship, on the contrary, it looks like a small boat.
Navigating in land rivers is no problem, but navigating in the sea, there are some shortcomings.
The eastern plain is close to the coast. Whether it is north or south, it is all of its own territory. When sailing on the sea, the speed is much faster than riding a horse. If you can build a large ship that can sail in the sea, go back. Whether it is transportation or fire fighting, it is invincible.
Ji Zei had thought of this a long time ago, but it was delayed for a while because of the plan to march from the north to the south.
Now that it's hard to get free time now, can the thief not pay close attention to this kind of thing?
At the moment, Ji Thief pinched his chin to observe the battleship lying on the ground. While watching, he pondered the matter in his heart. Seeing Ji Thief meditating, Tushan did not dare to bother, but waited quietly.
With the delay of time, gradually, when it was time to go to work, the clansmen of the Engineering Department came one after another. When they saw Ji Zei there, they were all stunned, and they didn't dare to come forward.
In the end, Usma came, and saw the thief, trot over and said hello.
"Master Patriarch, when did you come here."
Hearing the sound, the thief looked back, saw Usma, and smiled: "Usma, I got up very early."
Uthma touched her head and smirked.
With a smile, Usma seemed to have thought of something. He trot a few steps and stood beside the boat, patted his chest, pointed at the boat, and said: "Master Patriarch, come, how about my boat?"
Looking at Usma with a look of excitement, the thief did not feel embarrassed to hit his self-confidence, so he nodded: "Well, very good, very good."
Usmaduo was a clever person, just by looking at the expression of the thief, he knew what it meant.
"Master Patriarch, do you have any ideas?"
The thief thought for a while, then opened his mouth: "Usma, don't you think such a ship is too small?"
Usma looked surprised: "Is this still small?"
The thief nodded: "Well, isn't it small?"
"It's not the patriarch. There are only one hundred clansmen in the military and war department. Such a boat can hold twenty people, and five boats can hold a hundred people, which is not small."
The thief shook his head: "Although the Military War Department is the future navy of the tribe, Usma, you have to know that the navy is not only going into the water, but also into the sea."
Usma blinked at the thief.
The thief said: "The road to the east for a day on the Eastern Plain is the sea. I don't know if you have been to see..."
Before the thief could finish the next words, Usma shook his head: "No, I haven't been to the east."
Ji thief: "···"
"Then you come with me."
"Go? Why are you going?"
"Look at the turbulent sea, and then you can think about whether a warship of this size can sail smoothly on the sea. I believe you will know what to do after reading it. Tushan, go and ask Ado to prepare a car. "
Tushan agreed and turned away.
But for a while, Addo drove to the engineering department, and then the thief pulled Usma into the cart, and the cart left the north gate and headed east.
When he came out, the thief stood on the carriage and looked back.
Usma asked what happened to the thief, and the thief said: "Usma, don't you think our Li volcanic valley is a bit small? And the traffic is not very convenient."
Usma blinked, wondering what the thief meant.
Without understanding, Usma asked what the thief meant.
Ji Zei just shook his head and smiled without saying clearly.
A day’s journey was only half a day away. At the noon meeting, with Tushan and others on horseback, the carriage came to the edge of the cliff on the eastern plain adjacent to the sea.
Going further, there was no way to go. Everyone had to get out of the chariots and horses, leaving a few people to watch in place. After that, Ji thief led the others to find the path and touch down the cliff and walked towards the sea.
On the way, you can see many footprints on the beach next to the sea in front of the cliff.
The footprints are very fresh, and Ji Zei is even more surprised when he sees this.
Usma explained that Li Ya often came to the beach to hunt fish and shrimp, which may be her footprints.
Hearing what Usma said, the thief nodded and gave up.
Walking forward and stepping on the soft sand, it didn't take long for the meeting in the evening to come to the beach.
Looking at the endless blue sea in front of him, the turbulent Pumbai waves rolled and soared, in front of this nature, Ji Zei felt his insignificance once again.
When Uxma saw the sea for the first time, he couldn't help but stunned and organized: "Okay, it's spectacular."
The thief pointed to the direction of the sea and said: "Usma, now, do you think the boat can sail on this? Can it block the sea wind and waves that come on you?"
Usma hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
Ji Zei said: "In the future, the Military Headquarters is going to gallop above the sea. They are destined to dominate the sea. Just like the Hussars, they cannot dominate the plains without the horses. Just like the War Headquarters. Without trebuchets, they cannot use long-range attacks to create deterrence. Therefore, the warships of the Military War Department cannot be reduced.
Usma scratched his head: "But patriarch, how big a boat is to sail on this kind of water?"
Ji Thief smiled happily: "Why, it must be as long as fifteen carriages and as wide as four or five carriages."
In the Lihuo tribe, the carriages are generally two meters in length. According to Ji Zei, the warship must have a starting length of at least 30 meters and a width of ten meters.
This good guy, let alone a hundred people, even if one or two hundred people come in, he can hold it.
This scale is clearly prepared for five hundred people.
When I heard the words of the thief, Usma drooped immediately: "When is it so big?"
Ji thief waved his hand: "I can wait for one or two years without worry."
"Then Black Teng can't wait. He has been arguing that he wants to use warships and training grounds to train his military headquarters."
Ji thief sniffed: "Then first make a small warship and give it to the Military Warfare Department for use, and then dig out Xuanwu Pool as their training ground. As for the big ship, let's design and build it slowly."
Speaking hard, Ji Thief squatted on the sand, pulled back and forth in the soft fine sand, and then picked up a shell in his hand, weighed it, and threw it into the sea.
Ji thief stretched out his hand and looked out: "No one would have thought of developing the sea as their own treasure house. Therefore, as long as a large ship is made and matched with the upper military warhead, this sea is our world, understand? That kind of comparison. The Cavalry Department and the Military Fighting Department are even more unscrupulous and overbearing, Uthma, think about it, are you not excited?"
Usma made her heart surging with what the thief said, and she slapped her chest and shouted: "Don't worry, Lord Patriarch, just for this sentence, just to make the sea our territory, I will give this big ship what I say. !"
Ji Thief smiled, and his smiling eyes disappeared: "Yes, our goal is the stars and the sea. The stars are currently not counted on, so let's start with the sea."
Usma laughed loudly.
"By the way, Lord Patriarch, I have a question." Uthma suddenly said.
The thief looked at the sea with both eyes, and said, "Say."
Usma said: "We can use oars or longer bamboo to drive the kind of boat, but how do we let him go for the big boat you are talking about? Should we also prepare longer bamboo? Hmm, In that case, how long is it."
Usma's words fell, and the thief laughed.
With laughter, Usma's dazed expression cast over.
The thief closed his laughter: "Ahem, I'm sorry, I can't help it. It's such a Usma, sailing in the sea, oars, bamboo, these tools are all out of date, you can't use it on the river. Sailing tools are used in the sea. Do you know? If someone throws a rock at the end of the sea and the ripples are transmitted to our side, it is very likely to become a tsunami. In this case, you can use the oar bamboo , That's not looking for death, what is that?"
Usma was surprised: "Is it so exaggerated? You can't use oars and bamboo, so what do we use?"
"You can use a sailing boat that uses wind."
