Chapter 257 I feel fooled
Defense is the ability to withstand the damage of cannon fodder. If you want to increase defense, you must increase the thickness of the hull, or add metal bulletproof plates at important positions, which will increase the weight of the battleship and cause the speed to slow down.

Instead, increase the speed.

When the sail design has reached perfection and cannot be improved, it can only be solved by reducing the weight of the hull, and the result is a decrease in defense.

Defense and speed are two attributes that are difficult to trade off for every warship.

Speed ​​stands for quick deployment, and good maneuverability to dodge incoming shells in naval battles.

However, no warship can guarantee that it will not be shot in a naval battle, and how to reduce its own losses after being shot requires a reliable defense capability of the warship.

The warships below the three-masted battleship have tended to be perfect in design, and their speed and defense have reached a very good fit.

But after reaching the battleship level, the increase in the size of the battleship caused a sharp drop in ship speed.

Taking the Conqueror as an example, its propulsion ratio drops to 40, while the propulsion ratio of the barque is 70.

At the same time, the flexibility of the hull has also declined significantly.

The reason why the second-tier battleship has not been designed for a long time is because its speed will drop to an unbearable figure as the hull continues to grow.

No navy is willing to accept a battleship that can't even get out of the port, no matter how powerful its firepower is.

Therefore, the problem that plagues all ship design masters is how to increase the speed of the second-tier battleships. Some ship design masters propose to reduce the defensive capabilities of the second-tier battleships and expand the capacity based on the current third-tier battleship hulls.

Used to hold more weapons, more soldiers, larger Arcatraz and Magic Amplifiers.

This is also the thinking of mainstream ship design masters, and the second-tier battleships designed with this thinking will also appear soon.

Da Liang, who is preparing to develop his fleet based on navigation in the game, still has some understanding of the secrets of these ship designs.

It is also known that there are two contradictory attributes of defense and speed on the ship.

Facing Guice's question, Da Liang thought for a while and said: "Naval battles that require the use of battleships are definitely not low-intensity maritime conflicts. As an important firepower output weapon, it must also be the key target of the enemy's firepower. In naval battles, priority should be given to ensuring one's own survival, and defensive capabilities should even take precedence over offensive capabilities.

But speed is the basis of a warship's survival, and its importance is equal to defense ability.

Therefore, I think both defense and speed are very important for warships. You can't slow down the speed because you want to increase the defense, and you can't reduce the defense because you want to increase the speed. "

Regarding Da Liang's answer, Geese said a little angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, I know that defense and speed are two important attributes for the survival of a battleship, and now I ask you to choose the most important one among them, this is a single topic."

"I chose to make these two attributes fit together through the design of the battleship. A battleship is only a battleship if it has strong defense and speed."

Da Liang replied firmly.

In the 18th world, sailing battleships with 110 guns were used on the seas of the earth. It is impossible to be stuck on a battleship with 80 guns in the game.

Although the weapons of the battleship in the game are not only artillery, but also large biological compartments, ballistas, magic devices, magic amplifiers, these things take up space.

But Da Liang still feels that there is still room for improvement in the design of the battleships in the game. Since the second-level battleship class exists in the game theory, it will definitely appear in the game.

And it is definitely not a so-called reduced second-tier battleship. If the thin-skinned second-tier battleship really does it, it is estimated that even the third-tier battleship can't beat it.

Da Liang's answer made Geese fall into silence. When the undead were silent, no one knew what they were thinking.

After a while, Geese said, "I want to take you in as an apprentice in battleship design. I wonder if Lord Viscount would like to accept me as a teacher?"

apprenticeship?Learn battleship design!

Da Liang really didn't think about it at first.

This is learning life skills. To advance, not only skill books are required, but also proficiency is required.

Proficiency really needs to be honed, accumulated little by little, and it is impossible to practice life skills without spending a lot of time.

If Da Liang was an ordinary player, he would be happy to learn such a powerful job as battleship design. By then, just selling the blueprints of sloop-class ships would be enough to earn a living.

But Da Liang is now the lord, with nearly [-] soldiers in his hands, and the construction of the territory will soon begin to upgrade to four levels.

After level five, Marquis Stanley could not provide construction blueprints, so Da Liang could only lead the army into the kingdom of death, the base camp of the undead, where bone dragons were flying all over the sky and dark knights were running everywhere.

There are also Judgment Corps and Fishing Grounds.

There is also Green Leaf Island, where Jeju City has suffered, and will definitely not let it go.

Brother is now in the world of martial arts, Vega and overseas, can you have time to practice life skills?

But... this is a ship design master who is taking apprentices. In the entire game, there are several players who can find a master-level hero as their master.

Tangled, tangled.

Forget it, fight it.For a high-player like brother, do you still care about learning one more skill?

In case Geese took in a talented apprentice like Brother, he suddenly became so happy that his head cleared up and his thinking became clear.Wouldn't that brother be able to wipe his ass with second-level battle-level blueprints and first-level battle-level blueprints to wipe his nose in the future, and Joyce cried and begged his brother to green their prince?

"It is my honor to be the apprentice of Master Guise."

There was no grand apprenticeship ceremony, nor three kowtows and nine obeisances. Amidst the system's confirmation, Da Liang had a mentor-student relationship with the ship design master Geese.

It's just that Ji Si didn't show too much happiness for accepting Da Liang as an apprentice, but led him into the counter.

Then take down a model of a unit merchant ship on the display stand.

"Before I officially teach you the basic ship design, you need to understand the basic structure of the ship. This is a model of a single-masted merchant ship, which is the most basic hull structure style of all ships. This model has a total of 143 modules Spliced ​​together, and you..." I saw Kees poking down on the sloop model casually, and it immediately turned into a pile of scattered small wooden blocks of various styles, "put these modules in the time limit of 5 minutes Reassembling the inside is your first lesson, remember there is no more and no less.”

Da Liang looked at the pile of small wooden blocks in front of him and opened his mouth wide and said, "Teacher, can you demonstrate it to me first?"

Gith snorted: "If you can't even complete this small model, it means you don't have the talent to be a ship designer. I will terminate our master-apprentice relationship. Remember to send the corpses of the two golden dragons, and keep an eye on the shop. , Every product here has a price tag, if someone comes in to buy a model, you can sell it to him at the price.”

After finishing speaking, Keith walked towards the backyard, leaving only Da Liang in the store with a dazed face.

Feel cheated.
