Chapter 210： Military port built

  Chapter 210 The military port is completed

  Qu Mao finished chatting with Kong Ming about the coastal defense weapons in the territory of Yi Village in Beixiang Xiaocun, and rushed to Li Village overnight in spite of Kong Ming's dissuasion.

   Resting in the village for one night, Qu Mao started to gather the leaders to go to the civilian pier of the outlying island after waking up early in the morning, and began to build the coastal defense catapult invented by himself and Kong Ming.

  Although Kong Ming was very pessimistic about the coastal defense catapult that Qu Mao wanted to build, Qu Mao felt that it was a little comfort to his fear, even if it cost resources, it was worth it.

   What's more, every time a coastal defense catapult is built, the cheating system can also give a reward of 10 cheating points.

After four or five days of busy work, when Qu Mao dragged his tired body back to Yi Village, a second-rank halberd soldier knocked on the door and entered Qu Mao's room, and said to Qu Mao: "My lord, when you are not here, Mr. Sunan Send someone back to pass a letter saying that the military port has been built."

  When Qu Mao heard the news, he immediately got up and went to the military port, but he remembered that although his room was illuminated by the night pearl as if it were day, it was already night.

  So Qu Mao waved his hand and said to the second-tier halberd soldiers: "Thank you, soldier! I will go over to have a look tomorrow, and your mission has been successfully completed."

It has to be said that it is a small pity that the construction of the military port was not completed in the first time, but this did not affect Qu Mao. The construction of coastal defense catapults on the three small islands made Qu Mao exhausted. There are more or less cheating rewards for building a building, Qu Mao is really afraid that he will not be able to persist.

  After seeing off the second-tier halberd soldiers, Qu Mao lay on the bed and soon fell asleep.

  Early the next morning, after breakfast in the restaurant of the lord's hut, Qu Mao found a rough horse and ran towards the military port.

  Around 10:00 in the morning, Qu Mao arrived at the Yidao military port that had been built.

  A 9-meter-high wall was automatically built around the military port. Although there are no wall stacks and shooting holes, the 9-meter height alone gives people a strong sense of oppression.

  The gate of the military port is about five meters high and three meters wide. There are thick iron nails protruding about five centimeters on the door panel, which looks mighty and extraordinary.

It was the naval hero Sylvia Ocean who greeted Qu Mao in the military port. Qu Mao asked in astonishment: "Sylvia, why are you here? Where are the others? Shouldn't Sir Mrak lead you?" Go out hunting together to upgrade?"

Sylvia Ocean said indifferently: "My lord, the naval port has been built for a few days, but there are no warships. But even if there are no warships, the naval port cannot be empty, so my subordinates divided the navy into two, first-rank sailors, The sailors remained in the naval barracks, and the subordinates of the second-order ship shooters were brought to the naval port.

   Now the subordinates spend half a day training naval soldiers and sailors in the naval barracks and military port, and half a day is spent hunting and upgrading with Sir Mrak. "

   Qu Mao said: "Well, this arrangement is good. You continue to work on your work, and I will just take a look."

Walking into the military port, there are countless docks in the huge military port. These docks are much more advanced than those zero-level civilian docks in the territory of Yi Village. Unfortunately, there are so many docks in the military port, but there is not even a single warship. The entire military port looks empty. .

  This situation more or less made Qu Mao feel a little embarrassed. There are rows of buildings in the military port, but now there are no people.

   Qu Mao asked Sylvia Ocean who was following him: "Sylvia, do you need some other personnel in the military port?"

  Sylvia Ocean said indifferently: "Yes, my lord. Any military port needs a certain number of shore-based personnel, such as logistics personnel and ship maintenance personnel.

  Generally, it is mainly composed of sailors, first-class sailors and boatmen, mainly serving naval soldiers and warships.

  However, our naval port has just been built, and there are no warships, so the subordinates have not formed shore-based personnel for the time being.

  The most important function of shore-based personnel is the repair and maintenance of warships. However, there are no warships now, and it is meaningless to have shore-based personnel. "

   Qu Mao said: "Our territory is building a shipyard on an outlying island, so we actually have 15 boatmen. If there is a need here, I can transfer some of them. Anyway, the shipyard will not be built in a short while."

  Sylvia Ocean accompanied Qu Mao on a tour of the military port, and said, "My lord, since we have a shipyard, why don't we build warships?

  The talent of the subordinates is ocean affinity, and the skills are basically related to naval warfare. But now you tell me that our territory of Yi Village doesn't even have a warship. Since there is no warship, why do you recruit your subordinates? "

   Qu Mao blushed, and checked Sylvia Oshen's loyalty, and it dropped to 13%. I remember that when I first came to check at the door, there was still 15%, and the loyalty began to drop, which is not good.

  Actually, Qu Mao has also communicated with Lai Dima on the lord communication channel these days, asking to purchase warships, but Lai Dima is really black, and even a lowest-level warship requires 1,000 gold coins from Qu Mao.

  But even if Qu Mao couldn’t afford so many gold coins now, he still told Lai Dima that he wanted to purchase a warship, but he asked Lai Dima for a 20% discount.

  Thinking that Sylvia Ocean's loyalty has dropped, Qu Mao had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, "Sylvia, there is no warship in the territory for the time being, so you don't have to worry.

  I can dispatch a sea ship to let you train the sailors and sailors in night navigation.

  Because we are going to open a new port route about 500 kilometers away from Yancheng Port, and we are still 300 kilometers away from Yancheng Port, so sailors and first-level sailors must have night navigation capabilities.

  Let’s settle down first, there will definitely be warships in the future, don’t worry, I promise to get you at least one warship within two months. "

   While chatting with Sylvia Ocean, Qu Mao walked to the edge of the military port, and suddenly Qu Mao stopped, pointed to the cliff and asked, "Sylvia, what is that?"

  Sylvia Ocean glanced at it, and said casually: "My lord, this is the defensive weapon that comes with the military port—the ballista. It has an effective range of 300 meters and is used to attack unknown ships trying to approach the military port."

  Qu Mao immediately became interested, climbed up the cliff to study carefully, and found that this kind of ballista does not require human operation, and can shoot automatically. It is obviously a game-like defensive item.

  Come down from the cliff, Qu Mao asked: "Sylvia, can we build this ballista outside the military port?"

  Sylvia Ocean was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My lord, this subordinate doesn't know much about ballistas.

   It is God's will that this subordinate was recruited to the territory of Yi Village, but his subordinate is a naval logistics officer, not a naval equipment research and development engineer, so his subordinate has no way to answer your question.

  God's will is to let the subordinates be loyal to the lord they serve, and did not let the subordinates develop naval weapons.

  Since your lord has asked this question, the subordinates feel that since these ballistas can defend automatically, there must be God's will in them. Since there is God's will in them, I am afraid it is not so easy to research and build. "

   Qu Mao nodded, and said: "Well, I understand now that you said that.

   But obviously, I can arrange technical workers to conduct reverse research. If the research is done, wouldn't our coastal defense weapons be countless times stronger than coastal defense catapults? "

  Sylvia Ocean looked at Qu Mao in astonishment, and said after a while: "My lord, automatic defense is a miracle of God, but what can we mortals actually figure out and study?

   You want to find skilled workers to reverse engineer the artifact given by God, isn't it blasphemy?

  Even if God doesn’t care about your recklessness, how can it be possible to manufacture the exquisite artifact designed by God with the ordinary knowledge of a skilled worker? "

   Qu Mao waved his hand, and decided not to continue discussing this issue with Sylvia Oshen, a little magician, but to arrange for someone to immediately go to Nanlai Village to call two carpenters, two blacksmiths, and two stonemasons.

The military port is closer to Nanlai Village. In less than half an hour, a navy soldier led ten citizens in and saluted Qu Mao: "My lord, Village Chief Zhang Kai arranged for the six skilled workers you requested, and arranged Four elite leaders followed, and the subordinates did not dare to ask more questions.

  The village chief Zhang Kai said that you understand his arrangement. "

   Qu Mao nodded, and said to the navy soldiers: "You have done a good job, soldier, thank you. Your task has been completed, and I really understand what Village Chief Zhang Kai did."

   Turning to the ten leaders from the small village from the south, he said: "Everyone, from now on, ten of you will set up a research and development team to develop the manufacturing technology of the shore defense ballista on the cliff. The military port has brought a total of 8 coastal defense ballistas.

  In the process of researching ballista manufacturing technology, I allow you to dismantle two of them, and you must study how to build coastal defense ballista for me, you know? "

The craftsman headed by    bowed his hands and said: "Master, there are ready-made finished products, and even if the subordinates cannot make finished products that look like spirits, there is still no problem in making finished products that look similar.

   It's just that automatic defense is a miracle, I'm afraid we can't research it. "

Qu Mao said: "Do your best. Even if you can't do automatic defense, we can do it manually. All in all, we should study how to build a coastal defense ballista as soon as possible. Attacking on your own still requires the manipulation of our subjects to attack.

   Time has to be hurry up, you try to live temporarily in the military port, and study day and night.

   There is a shipyard for repairing warships in the naval port, where you can find tools and make components. "

   "Yes, my lord, this subordinate waits to complete the task as soon as possible." Ten leaders expressed their acceptance of Qu Mao's task.

  Sylvia Ocean watched Qu Mao arrange the tasks suspiciously the whole time, as if thinking that Qu Mao was just joking.

  After arranging a team of skilled workers from Nanlai Village to carry out the reverse research and development task of coastal defense ballistas, Qu Mao decided that it would be more appropriate to go to Nanlai Village.

  So Qu Mao bid farewell to Sylvia Ocean, waved goodbye to the technical workers group, and then walked out of the gate of the military port and walked towards the small village of Mingang.
