Daming: Apocalypse of Longevity

Chapter 71 Galen Warship
Because the intentions of these Thais are too obvious, Zhu Tianqi naturally can't fail to feel it. The chime clock they presented to him is obviously to show themselves the advanced technology of their Thais. Make the chiming bell into the shape of a Catholic church to achieve the purpose of preaching to yourself.

But unfortunately, Zhu Tianqi did not let them get what they wanted. Instead, he directly used a children's watch to dampen the spirit of the Thai people. He didn't even give them a chance to say what they said. After the "wrist watch" bestowed by Zhu Tianqi was more advanced, Volger was a little ashamed of himself, so naturally he didn't have the nerve to mention the matter of preaching.

Then Franji was a little discouraged. After he stepped forward to salute, he didn't dare to show off any more. He obediently opened the cloth covers of the two gifts behind him. They were two very exquisite Western-style warship models.

Giroud, the leader of the Franchise, introduced to Zhu Tianqi: "Dear Your Majesty the Emperor, these two ship models are modeled after our Atlantic country's Karak-type warships and Galen-type warships, both in appearance and interior. The structure is exactly the same as the real Karak ship and Galen ship..."

At this point, Giroud suddenly stopped talking, swallowed the rest of the words, did not continue, and bowed his head respectfully.

In fact, according to the plan of the Thai and Western people, they intend to present the self-ringing bell first to make the Emperor Ming aware of the advanced technology of the West and the West. missionary matters.

Then they presented ship models to show the powerful Thai-Spanish warships to the Ming Emperor, in order to let the Ming Emperor know how powerful their Thai-Spanish fleet was. This also meant to demonstrate their force to the Ming Emperor.

Of course, the Taixi people do have such capital. Today's Western-style warships are indeed much more advanced than the Fuchuan Guangzhou ships commonly used in the Ming Dynasty, and the Taixi people's artillery technology is also ahead of the Ming Dynasty.

Although the Ming Dynasty won several naval battles with the Taixi people, in fact it mainly relied on numerical superiority. Since the Ming Dynasty implemented a sea ban, shipbuilding and navigation skills began to decline.

But today's Franji people don't dare to say the following words to show off to the Ming Emperor the advancement of the Western warships and the strength of the Western fleet, because they have just been crushed by the Ming Dynasty in clock technology. It is obvious that the Ming Dynasty The technology is much more advanced and developed than they imagined.

Now, if he continues to blindly praise his own warships without any appreciation, who knows whether he will anger the Ming Emperor and lead to death?At that time, maybe the Ming Dynasty will send a powerful fleet composed of more advanced warships that they have never seen before to Haojing Ao and expel them!
Of course, even if the Ming Dynasty only used the existing fleet of Fuzhou and Guangzhou, it could easily expel them from Haojingao!

But this time, Zhu Tianqi showed more interest than when he saw the self-ringing bell. After all, developing Ming Dynasty's shipbuilding and navigation skills was Zhu Tianqi's next very important plan.

Needless to say, the Western carrack is a mainstream sailing ship that has long been famous and loved by Westerners. It was used by Magellan when he sailed around the world and when Columbus discovered the American continent.Galenic ships are a rising star that have only emerged in recent decades. In 1588, the British defeated the Spanish Empire's Armada, which was composed of Karak-type warships, with a fleet of smaller tonnage Galenic ships, and became a newly emerging maritime force. Overlord, the faster and more maneuverable Galen ships have gradually become the new favorite of Westerners.

To develop the Ming Dynasty's shipbuilding technology, it is necessary to learn from the advantages of Western warships. After all, throughout the era of sailing, Galenic ships were the "protagonists". It was with Galenic ships that Britain built the world's largest shipbuilding industry. The most powerful fleet gradually became the "Empire on which the Sun Never Sets."

Although Zhu Tianqi, who has a system and a krypton life store, will definitely build more advanced steam-powered warships in the future, before that, a more reliable sailing ship must be used as a transition.

Zhu Tianqi stood up, walked off the platform himself, walked to the front of the Galen warship and observed it carefully. At the same time, the overall structure of the Galen ship in front of him had already appeared in his mind. , the entire Galen warship was dismantled into parts, which bloomed in his mind in a very three-dimensional manner!
Zhu Tianqi knew that with his talent for construction, he could completely draw the blueprints for building the Galen ship based on the model in front of him, but he was not yet sure whether the model of the Galen ship in front of him was different from the real Galen ship. There was no difference, so he immediately turned around and asked the Naffron robot, "Are you sure that the structure of this ship model is exactly the same as the real Galen ship?"

Zhu Tianqi's excessive concern for this ship model surprised these Westerners. They thought that the Ming Emperor would not care about the exquisite self-ringing bells before, and he was even more lazy to take a look at this wooden model. Unexpectedly, The Emperor of Ming Dynasty was not only interested in this ship model, but he was also very knowledgeable about the goods. He could recognize which ship was a Galen ship without anyone introducing it to him!

Although Jirou looked shocked, he still hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, these two warship models are both made by our Atlantic shipyard, and they are absolutely identical to the real Karak warships and Galen warships. of!"

Zhu Tianqi nodded slowly and walked back towards the dragon chair. He said to Wang Yuanbao: "These two warship models will be sent to me to Qianqing Palace later."

"My slave obeys the order!" Wang Yuanbao quickly bowed and nodded in agreement.

Both Giroud and the other Thai and Western people were very surprised. They could not understand why the Ming Emperor did not like exquisite self-ringing bells. Instead, he liked warship models, and even acted very knowledgeable, as if he was interested in their Karak ships and Galen's ships are all well understood.

This question didn't come until Sun Yuanhua told the Taixi people that the emperor had always liked to use wood to make exquisite furniture and handicrafts, and they figured out the reason. After all, if the two ship models were just judged from their appearance and structure, they were For those who like carpentry and craftsmanship, it is indeed a rare product!
At this point, Sun Yuanhua made a temporary guest appearance in the "Ming Dynasty War Ignorance" without knowing it, making people in Europe and the West think that the reason why the Ming Emperor showed extraordinary interest in the two warship models was just because he was a carpenter enthusiast.

People in Europe and the West could not have imagined that in just two years, the Ming Dynasty would use these two warship models to imitate the Galen ship, and later transform it into a Galen ship that was more advanced than the Galen ships of other countries in Europe and the West. A new type of warship!
　I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival!
