Chapter 292

If you don’t accept it, come and do it

Everyone walked through the valley and followed a path to the artificial lake behind.

When we arrived here, we saw several warships docked by the dock. Seeing such a huge creature made everyone feel extremely shocked. The two generals had already rode over for a walk.

However, the warship on the edge was covered with cloth, and I couldn't see what it was on it at all. King Ning was not particularly excited when he saw the warship. After all, he had seen this warship many times, but he was just interested in this cover.

"Sanyuan, why is this still blocking?"

Zhou Ze tightened his horse's belly and walked to Ning Wang's side.

"This is the surprise I want to give to Your Highness today. When the warship was being repaired, I don't know if I could realize the expected implementation. After nearly a month of transformation, a warship has been transformed."

Ning Wang glanced at Zhou Ze, and saw the pride in his eyes, and knew in his heart that this was today's surprise. For a moment, all the hair seemed to be preparing to stand up. After all, the stimulation he felt like he was lingering when he saw the seventh generation crossbow last time.

At this moment, the two of them rode a horse back.

"Brother Zhou, these boats are well made, but why are they covered with cloth?"

Zhou Ze bowed and said:

"I just told Your Highness that although this warship has been repaired, it is somewhat different from what I expected. After all, we must suppress the Western Zhou Dynasty and not just chase their butts. If you want to do it well, you must first sharpen your weapons. Let's take a look at the new warship together!"

As he said that, Zhou Ze raised his hand and a signal thunder was thrown out, hitting the ground and making a sharp roar, and then yellow smoke rose to the ground.

Several navy men slid over from the warship next to them, grabbing ropes and cutting off the cloth blocking the ironclad ship.

The soldiers on the shore began to turn the huge wheels, and the cloth was directly put away, and the ironclad ship appeared directly in front of everyone.

Such a huge hull was wrapped in iron armor, and three layers of holes appeared around the hull, which was one more layer of hole than those warships.

Ning Wang went to see that the hole on the bottom layer of the warship was used by crew members to row the oars, and the upper layer was used for archery. The extra layer was added, each hole was quite large, but it was closed at this time, and I was a little confused for a while.

"Is this putting armor on the warship? How come there is a row of holes?"

Zhou Ze nodded.

"I found the best craftsman and covered it with a layer of not heavy iron plates. Even if I collided with a warship of the same size on the front, I would be safe and sound. After all, there were anti-collision piles on both wings at the bow and stern of the ship.

In order to prevent the iron plate from being corroded and rusted by water, tung oil is applied on it, which can not only prevent corrosion but also ensure the heat resistance of the hull. It also adds a non-flammable medicine powder to prevent it from getting stuck in the fire like ordinary grease.

Of course, the most unique design is that there is a mystery in the uppermost hole of the two wings. Can Your Highness look at it?"

King Ning raised his hand and put it on Zhou Ze's shoulder, sighed and said:

"Your insult to keep you from being in trouble really makes me angry. You can't beat or scold me, do you know?"

Zhou Ze laughed.

After waved his hand behind him, Old Xu had already approached and blew a loud whistle. Then the soldiers brought beside him began to whistle.

King Ning and the two generals all looked at the ironclad ship. After a moment, the third hole that had just been closed was opened, and six long poles were extended.

With the control, the pole was stretched open. I carefully observed that it was very similar to the seventh generation crossbow they promoted, but the crossbow machine was even larger, and there seemed to be many vertical and horizontal bowstrings on it.

King Ning tightened his breath and looked at Zhou Ze sideways.

“It’s done?”

Zhou Ze nodded with a smile.

"It's done. This is specially installed on the ironclad ship. After that, there are specializing in siege, some throwing tinctures and black fire bombs, and some launching iron locks. The purpose is different. It's impossible to perceive the power in this way. Otherwise, if you ask Your Highness to board the ship, you will just reveal the name of the ironclad ship."

King Ning nodded and waved at everyone.

"Come here, come and board the ship with me."

As he said that, the crowd followed King Ning to the ironclad ship and came to the deck. A piece of red cloth was hanging outside the helmsman's workshop.

Without Zhou Ze's guidance, Ning Wang walked straight over. The two generals were unable to express their admiration for Zhou Ze at this moment, and they felt that their performance in the competition was really ashamed.

People are busy with serious business, what are they doing?

Apart from being a stumbling block and internal friction, they have no elegance as a veteran. Not to mention King Ning, they now admire Zhou Ze very much.

Such ships patrolled back and forth on the Baisha River.

If you dare to do something in the Western Zhou Dynasty, you are brain-related. This is a shock. If you don’t accept it, you will do it!

King Ning grabbed the red silk and pulled it hard. The red silk slid down. The four bright red words on it stunned King Ning. Then he looked back at Zhou Ze. At that moment, tears flashed in King Ning's eyes.

"Ningguo official account?"

Zhou Ze bowed and said:

"Yes, the Duke of Ningguo has been guarding the southern border all his life and devoted himself to the Tang Dynasty. I felt that this first iron armored ship should be engraved with his name, so I made my own decision to name this iron armored ship Ningguo Gongnuan."

King Ning kept nodding, and the two generals were also excited.

“Where are we going to experiment now?”

Zhou Ze waved his hand.

"Old Xu called someone and lifted the red cloth on the hull, then raised the anchor and we went to Tuojiang for a walk."

Old Xu had already greeted people and cut off the larger red cloth rope that blocked the hull, and four big red fonts appeared on the hull.

Then the ironclad ship started to anchor, and the Ningguo Duke drove directly towards the Tuojiang River. There were so many crew members below the warship, and the ship was traveling very fast. The sails above opened and turned into the Tuojiang River in the blink of an eye.

Everyone started to visit, especially the heavy crossbow. When they saw the heavy crossbow machine at close range, King Ning couldn't help but step forward directly, and the controlled soldiers did not let go. After all, the main general did not give any orders.

King Ning checked it and even compared the crossbow's shaft with his arm. He believed that this thing could penetrate the wall.

"Where do we go to Tuojiang to test it? Are there any city walls used for testing?"

Zhou Ze shook his head and reached out to signal everyone to go up. After all, the underside was stuffy.

"Your Highness, let's go up and eat and chat. It's almost an hour away from the destination. I don't want to test the walls. Those that have not been challenged and we have not tried this time. Let me keep it a secret. How about it?"

King Ning had no choice but to step onto the deck and glanced at the two generals.

"I have no objection now?"

And Deming was stunned and looked at Ke Xudong beside him.

"Ah, what to eat?"

For a moment, several people burst into laughter.

Zhou Ze asked someone to prepare hot pot, of course, he was afraid that everyone would feel hot, so he made several large ice basins beside him. While eating and chatting, the boat also came to the place where Lu Zhi and the others had been hiding for six years.

Seeing the low cliffs on both sides, Ke Xudong seemed to understand something. He walked to the south and looked at the low cliff next to him.

"Brother Zhou, is this where Lu Zhi and the others hide?"

Zhou Ze nodded, still very impressed. After all, this is on the Tuojiang River. Many people fall when they get on the boat. They can determine the location at once, and they are definitely a general with real talents and knowledge.

He signaled that Lao Xu could stop the boat and was ready to stand by, and then he said slowly.

"Yes, there is no place to test nearby, there is no people here, and it will not cause panic. The most important thing is to avoid the surveillance of the Monster Hunter and the Shadow Guard. I think it is better to be more secretive. If you are unexpected, you can catch the other party off guard."

Ke Xudong nodded vigorously, and Zhou Ze bowed to King Ning at this time.

"Your Highness, we are here, are you going to start the experiment now?"

King Ning waved his hand.

"start!"

With a command, Old Xu yelled.

"Everyone is here, prepare!"

With the roar, someone yelled the same command as the sound transmission tube below, and then the sound of squeaking and filling can be heard below, neatly and uniformly, as if practicing it multiple times.

Old Xu shouted again.

"The target is the middle section of the low cliff on the south bank, shoot!"

As the sounds of repetition below came, a huge banging sound came. The sound was huge and the deck trembled. With this sound, Ning Wang and the others stared at the low cliff opposite.

Six heavy arrows with legs of adult men were directly inserted into the stone wall of the low cliff. Three were almost completely immersed, and the remaining three were also inserted halfway.

"Second filling, shoot!"

Ning Wang and the others adapted to the sound of the second shooting. Almost all of the six heavy arrows were penetrated into the cliff this time. Everyone knew how hard the cliff was. If it were a city wall, wouldn’t it have penetrated?

And Deming slapped his thigh and was about to speak, Ke Xudong stopped him and pointed to the position of the cliff and shouted in surprise:
Chapter completed!
