Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 331 The Benjamin Who Has Never Seen the World

After a while.

The people on board finally saw clearly.

"Boat! It's a ship!"

"Oh, Karma, this boat is too big!"

"Strange, why don't these ships have masts? How do they move forward?"

"Are these ships on fire? Why is there something like a chimney smoking?"

"It's so strange to go against the wind so fast!"

"..."

Although Benjamin, Jack, and the Earl of Hebrew didn't say anything, they all had expressions of shock on their faces.

As the warship got closer and closer, the expressions on the faces of the three became more shocked.

Jack couldn't help exclaiming: "This...is this an iron-clad warship?!"

Benjamin also saw it, with an unbelievable expression on his face: "Oh, how much steel does it take to build a ship with iron armor?!"

The Earl of Hebrew looked like he had seen a ghost, his eyes were as big as a bull's eyes, and he exclaimed, "The water can carry an iron-clad ship? It's unbelievable, how did they do it! ?”

The other sailors on the deck were also shocked, and kept yelling oh man.

At this time, Zhou Jianbo on the iron-clad warship was observing with a binoculars. When he saw Benjamin, he quickly gave orders to the people behind him.

"Slow down! Slow down!"

"It's that foreigner named Benjamin who is a friend of His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince!"

When Li Changfeng left last time, he took his muskets and cannons with him, but he left behind a lot of grenades, which were used as a support for the iron-clad warships to run wild on the sea.

Just now he received a report that a large number of fleets were approaching the coastline. He thought it was the Japanese pirate navy attacking, so he immediately launched the iron-clad warships and brought many soldiers to meet the enemy.

In his opinion, this is the credit for the door-to-door delivery.

The soldiers under his command were also very happy, so they hurriedly killed him.

As a result, Zhou Jianbo observed with a binoculars, and found that the people who came were from foreign countries, and there was an acquaintance among them, who was Benjamin who had accompanied Li Changfeng himself.

When Benjamin's cargo ship was damaged, he spent a lot of time on the shore, so he was acquainted with him.

Zhou Jianbo stood at a conspicuous position on the bow of the ship, looking towards Benjamin and the others with his hands behind his back.

Soon, the younger and better-sighted Jack spotted him and jumped up excitedly.

"General Zhou, it's General Zhou, they must have known we were here to pick us up!"

Benjamin stretched his neck for a closer look, and showed an excited expression: "That's right, it's really General Zhou, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince must have asked him to pick us up!"

After speaking, Benjamin took off the hat in his hand and waved it at Zhou Jianbo.

"Dear General Zhou, hello!"

Seeing their enthusiasm, Hebrew looked a little displeased.

"Isn't he just an admiral? As for making you so happy? The face of the Germanic Empire has been completely humiliated by you!"

Benjamin's face was slightly gloomy, but he adjusted himself quickly. He turned around and said respectfully to Heber: "Dear Lord Earl of Hebrew, the strength of their navy can be seen from the large number of these iron-clad warships. Don't you need respect?"

"General Zhou is a loyal supporter of His Highness the Ninth Prince. Our fleet and the safety of our lives need his protection. Don't we need to respect him? Dagan has something we dream of, and we must maintain our respect!"

Hebrew snorted and turned his head away, with some disdain on his face, but he couldn't find a reason to refute, so he covered his head and didn't speak.

Benjamin ignored him and continued to wave to Zhou Jianbo.

Soon the two ships were close together, Benjamin and Jack couldn't wait to climb up the ladder, Hebrew hesitated and followed.

"Hi Benjamin!" Zhou Jianbo stretched out his hand with a smile on his face.

"Nice to meet you, General Zhou." Benjamin gave Zhou Jianbo a warm hug without shaking hands.

Zhou Jianbo looked embarrassed, and stretched out his hand to pat Benjamin on the back. He has not yet adapted to this unique way of greeting.

Then Benjamin pointed to the Earl of Hebrew who was behind him with a haughty face and his eyes almost raised above his head.

"This is the Earl of our Germanic Empire, representing our king to Dagan, hoping to establish a friendly business relationship with Dagan."

Zhou Jianbo looked bewildered.

He understands the Japanese pirate language, but not the foreign language, and can only understand simple greetings like hello.

Benjamin looked helpless, slapped his forehead and looked at Hebrew.

"My lord Earl, the only one who understands our language in the entire cadre is His Highness the Ninth Prince. Your identity and purpose can only be conveyed by him."

Hebrew nodded and did not speak. He looked at the cabin behind Zhou Jianbo, and the crackling sound aroused his great curiosity.

Benjamin also noticed this, pointing to his ears, then his eyes, and pointing to the cabin, and faltering and making gestures for a long time before Zhou Jianbo understood what he meant.

"Do you want to go in and have a look? Yes, come with me."

Zhou Jianbo hooked his hands, motioning for them to follow.

Benjamin, Jiji, and Hebrew hurriedly followed behind, their eyes full of curiosity.

When the steam engine in the cabin caught their eyes, the three of them stared wide-eyed and kept shouting oh mana.

"Oh, Karma, what is this?!"

"Is this the secret to making the boat sail without sails?!"

"Burning coal, they actually burn coal on board!"

"What kind of machine is this, what is the principle?!"

"..."

Although Zhou Jianbo and the soldiers behind him couldn't understand a word of what they were saying, they could probably guess from their expressions. They all showed pride on their faces. The eyes of Benjamin and the others seemed to be looking at someone who didn't know what to say. A bumpkin who has seen the world.

The pride of Hebrew is gone at this time.

He wasn't an idiot, or he wouldn't have been sent out on a mission, and realized at once that if this coal-burning machine powered ironclad warships, it would be a world-changing invention.

If the navy of the Germanic Empire had mastered this technology, they would have become the supremacy of the seas.

He immediately said seriously to Benjamin: "It is very important to confirm whether this ship is driven by this machine!"

Benjamin also wanted to own such a terrifying fleet, so he nodded and looked at Zhou Jianbo: "Dear General, may I ask if this ship uses this machine as a power output?"

Zhou Jianbo: "What are you talking about?"

Benjamin danced and gestured for a while, Zhou Jianbo was even more at a loss.

In the end, Benjamin sighed and said helplessly: "It seems that we can only go to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince. Without him, we may not be able to make a single step in our endeavor."

Hebrew nodded: "Then hurry up!"
