Great Tang princess

Chapter 471 Battleship Launched

Chapter 471 Battleship Launched
At the end of March, the weather had completely warmed up, and many soldiers had already changed into short-sleeved training uniforms, and even went shirtless during some special training.

Li Yuechen knew that shirtless shirts would definitely not be allowed in most of the future troops, but the problem was that in this era, quick-drying clothes could not be made, and soldiers sweated a lot during strenuous exercise, and it was easy to get prickly heat or eczema.

Special circumstances are treated specially, and for some training that does not need to be touched, Li Yuechen will let them be shirtless.

These little things are based on the principle of convenience first, no matter what, and now she can't focus here.

The Queen's Ship has been completed and is about to be launched, so Li Yuechen decided to write a letter back and ask his mother to name it.

As the first warship in the true sense of this era, it is better to leave the naming issue to the emperor.

But at the same time, she couldn't help but think, according to her mother's character in middle school, what if she married Tai Lei and changed her name?

Of course, I didn’t forget to flatter my mother when I wrote the letter. I explained briefly that this kind of ship was completed in the Queen’s era, so the model of this kind of ship will be named “Queen’s Ship” in the future, presumably my mother You should be happy to hear that.

At the same time, I did not forget to say that I am trying to train pilots, and let my mother look for a place suitable for hang glider landing in the future.

After all, if it was Li Yuechen himself, it didn't matter if he landed directly in the palace, after all, it was her courtyard.

But if it is an outsider, even if it is to deliver a letter, it cannot directly land in the palace.So Li Yuechen asked her to find a suitable place.

……

The days in the military camp are always a bit boring, and now that the task of suppressing the bandits has been completed, they have devoted themselves to the day-to-day training.

But there are also some differences. Those soldiers who have gone out to perform missions have undergone some changes visible to the naked eye.

They trained more seriously, and at the same time realized their own shortcomings.

This time, when I went out to perform the mission, I just dealt with a group of bandits and killed two comrades in arms. If one day I dealt with heavily armed enemy soldiers, I am afraid that the casualties would be even greater.

So now the soldiers are training a lot more seriously than before, and some soldiers who were originally mixed up as veterans have become serious again.

After all, their lives are their own, and now they finally understood why His Highness told them to sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime.

……

April [-]th is a big day for the barracks. The Queen's Ship, which took more than two years to build, is finally going to be launched.

It is not a simple matter to transport such a large ship into the water, but the people of this era also have unique wisdom.

Although it is a sharp-bottomed boat, the bottom of the boat is not an acute angle, but has a main beam connecting the front and back, with a width of about one meter.The craftsmen put a polished log under the main beam and used it as a tire to move it.

Because it is a gentle slope to the beach, the boat will slide into the sea by itself under the action of gravity.

At the same time, there are hundreds of people on both sides pulling the left and right balance with hemp ropes to prevent it from tipping to one side.

The craftsmen placed the logs at certain intervals on the gentle slope, extending all the way to the sea.

At the same time, all the soldiers were called to help, and there were other captives and prisoners, but this was not enough. For the sake of safety, Li Yuechen also temporarily recruited some fishermen and young adults from the nearby fishing village.

When these people saw this large ship with a height of more than ten meters, the shocked expressions in their eyes could not be added, and many of them even froze in place.

Standing next to this big black boat, one can feel a huge sense of oppression.

However, as the craftsmen on the deck yelled, they joined the soldiers and pulled the hanging hemp rope.

And Li Yuechen was standing at the front right now, with two hemp ropes that were almost as thick as the forearms of ordinary women beside him.For a while she is responsible for pulling the boat and making it slide forward.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for subordinates to agree to such a request, but Li Yuechen is different from ordinary people. Everyone knows that she is very powerful. After a few words of persuasion, seeing her persistence, she did not continue to say more.

Li Yuechen, who was nearly 1.8 meters tall, was considered relatively tall among ordinary people, but standing in front of this tens of meters tall boat, he still looked like a small bean sprout.

Even though the ship weighs several hundred tons, Li Yuechen is still sure to pull it up.

After all, there are logs underneath to reduce friction, instead of dragging directly on the ground.

In the future, there will be many strong men who will hold the Guinness World Records, and many of them will be able to pull passenger planes by themselves.

Li Yuechen didn't think that his strength would be any worse than those people, so he was quite sure about it.

She has a very clear understanding of her own strength, and she may have exaggerated a bit when she said that the mountain was broken, but there is no problem with tearing up tigers and leopards!

If it is placed in the future, her strength is enough to overturn a bus with bare hands. It is said that she is a humanoid female tyrannosaur, and there is no problem at all.

Following the yell of the craftsman standing on the deck, hundreds of people on both sides of the hull tightened the hemp rope to maintain balance.

Geng Yunqiang was also on the deck, poking his head out and shouting at Li Yuechen: "Your Highness, everything is ready!"

"Okay!" Li Yuechen agreed, then turned around, raised his arms and spun around the hemp rope a few times, wrapping it around his arms.

Wang WuZhi, who was also helping to pull the hemp rope, couldn't help turning his head to look at his father: "This... Your Highness, can you really pull it with the strength of one person?"

Wang Xiaojie nodded: "My father once saw His Highness pulling four horses backwards, so it should be no problem."

This is a picture he has seen with his own eyes, not a legend.

Hearing his father's answer, Wang Wuzhi looked at Li Yuechen who was at the front curiously and expectantly while pulling the hemp rope.

At this moment, she was standing at the front of the boat with her back to everyone, her arms were wrapped with hemp rope, and she began to exert strength slowly.

Pulling such a huge object must not explode violently, otherwise the muscles and ligaments may be torn, and the force must be exerted slowly and gradually.

Li Yuechen grasped the hemp rope thick and thin on his forearm with both hands, and while gradually exerting strength, his upper body was also slowly lowered.

Then she took a deep breath softly and slowly, her feet began to kick the ground with force, the two hemp ropes were completely stretched, and even if she listened carefully, she could hear a slight cracking sound inside.

A breeze blew by, and Li Yuechen's ponytail hanging behind his back fluttered gently with the bright red hair band, dancing with the wind.

At this time, Li Yuechen had fully entered the state of exerting strength, and Wang Wuzhi could clearly see the bulging veins on the back of her hands.It even seemed to spread to all parts of the body under the bright red robe.

Moving your gaze upwards, you can see that the blood vessels on her neck are also bulging, and her fair face has also turned red, as if she was drunk.

The huge hull was still motionless, and everyone who was pulling the rope felt a little worried. Could it be that it couldn't be pulled?
Wang Wuqiong on the side wanted to persuade her, after all, she didn't want His Highness to become the second King Wu of Qin.

However, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a sudden friction sound.

At the same time, Li Yuechen raised his left leg and took a step forward.

Seeing this scene, Wang Wuqiong quickly closed his opened mouth, not daring to disturb her.

To pull such a huge object, she must be highly concentrated, and speaking suddenly may interrupt her rhythm.

It's really hard at first, but once you get started, it's much easier later on.

The huge black hull began to move forward slowly. Although the people on both sides were amazed that Her Royal Highness could pull such a huge ship by herself, they did not let go of their work.

Even Wang Xiaojie and the others, who had already known Li Yuechen's power in advance, all sighed in their hearts, such divine power is really incredible!

The military school students and a group of royal children are also helping here. They are the closest to the bow. Except for a few who are too young on the deck, the rest of the people are pulling the hemp rope and contributing a little. Share your own strength.

The children of the royal family who saw this scene on the deck cheered loudly, while the students of the military academy looked at her back, which was pulling the hull and moving forward slowly, with expressions of admiration on their faces.

As teachers, Lun Qinling and Lu Zhaolin were not asked to help, one was sick and the other was too old, so they didn't need to do it.

The two of them happened to be watching from the side, and they couldn't help gasping.

When Lu Zhaolin met Li Yuechen, she was still a little girl, and to some extent, he had watched her grow up.

I knew that she was very skilled and powerful, but I really didn't expect her strength to be so powerful.

As for talking about Qin Ling, he has completely stayed where he was.

As a former opponent, he had carefully studied Li Yuechen's combat power, and thought he knew her very well.

However, when he saw the scene in front of him, he felt that he didn't know her much better than the others, as if the two had just met.

……

The hull was pulled by Li Yuechen to the top of the gentle slope. As the bow of the boat was gradually pressed down, Li Yuechen felt the strength in his hands loosen a lot.

At this point, there is no need for Li Yuechen to continue pulling. The ship will slide into the sea by itself under the action of gravity. The gentle slope is not long, probably less than 100 meters, and the length of this ship is about 50 meters.

Seeing that the hull started to move by itself, Li Yuechen breathed a sigh of relief, threw the two hemp ropes to the outside, and at the same time left the front ramp.

The huge hull slid towards the sea pressing against the arranged logs, and the speed was much faster than before.

This shallow sea has been thoroughly explored in advance, and there are no hidden reefs. There is only uniform sand below, so there is no need to worry about hitting the bottom of the boat.

The huge black hull rushed into the ocean at a speed of [-] kilometers per hour, splashing a large amount of seawater.

The moment it entered the sea, the friction force was further reduced, and the hull rushed into the sea at a faster speed.

When the hull completely entered the water, the hull shook violently from side to side twice.Fortunately, the people on the deck were well prepared, and they all firmly grasped the fixed objects next to them.

Geng Yunqiang and several soldiers hugged several young royal children tightly in their arms to prevent them from falling.

From the violent shaking at the beginning, the amplitude gradually decreased, and finally, the hull completely stabilized, no longer shaking, and it felt similar to land.

The wind wasn't too strong today, and the small waves rushed over and slapped the hull without shaking at all. If it was an ordinary boat before, it might have already started to sway.

The craftsmen on the ship immediately entered the interior of the hull to check. After about a cup of tea, their figures appeared on the deck again, raised their hands to the shore and waved, indicating that there was no problem!
"Alas--"

Seeing this gesture, the soldiers on the bank cheered in unison, and many even jumped up happily.

It seems that there will be a chance to go to sea on this boat in the future, and it will be summer soon, and various diving trainings will almost start by then. I think there should be a chance to go to sea on this boat when it comes.

……

Li Yuechen also had a gratified expression on his face, and then he took Wang Wuqiong and others to the boat in a small sampan, intending to go up to see the specific situation.

Several people came to the side of the big boat, and the rope ladder that had been prepared earlier hung down from above, and several people climbed up along the hull.

Grasping the edge with one hand, Li Yuechen jumped up, lightly jumped onto the deck, and turned to look at the sea level in the distance.

The endless sea seems very empty, and the blue sea and blue sky are connected together in the distance. At a glance, there is an empty space in front of you, which instantly opens up your mood a lot.

When people see such a scene, they will subconsciously take a deep breath and express their feelings.

The oldest and most experienced craftsmen came to Li Yuechen and saluted happily and excitedly: "Your Highness, after careful inspection, everything is normal and there is no problem!"

"Well, you've worked hard!" Li Yuechen smiled, "Now that the boat has been successfully launched, you have made indispensable contributions, and you should be credited with a collective first-class merit!"

Although the design drawings and ideas were provided by Li Yuechen, after all, they made it from scratch, which can be regarded as a major contribution to the country, and there is no problem at all giving them first-class merit!

Hearing her words, the craftsmen saluted together: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Although none of them had any experience in military training, the Academy of Engineering was a military institution, and these craftsmen were also registered as military officers. They were considered technical officers, so there was nothing wrong with giving him a military salute.

Then a group of royal children ran over one after another, surrounded Li Yuechen in the middle, chatting about the huge strength she had just pulled the hull by herself.

And Geng Yunqiang who was behind them didn't come to disturb, but just stared blankly at the princess whom he had been with for many years.

It feels like she has been like this since she was a child, and she can always bring some shocking surprises from time to time.

All kinds of unimaginable inventions, not to mention hearing, even if you see it with your own eyes, you will doubt whether you have hallucinations.

Geng Yunqiang felt a little curious, what kind of incredible fairy treasures will His Highness make in the future?
