Chapter 1137: Breakthrough in shipbuilding technology

   On July 31, the sixth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao became unhappy after hearing Xinping's latest report on the battle against the Anti-Yizhen Alliance.

However, as a player of God's Chosen, Qu Mao had already expected the difficulty of fighting with God's Chosen players, so some unexpected things happened on the battlefield against the Anti-Yizhen Alliance, Qu Mao felt that it was acceptable. , the big deal is that you can cheat a lot of kryptonians by cheating.

When discussing countermeasures with Xinping, Qu Mao postponed the increase in troops until after August 5th. The main reason was that the combined forces of the navy, army, imperial guards, garrison and magic army would make the total number of troops in the territory of Yi Gong The scale has exceeded 150 million fighters, which poses a great challenge to the military expenditure in the account of Yigong Territory.

In addition, recently, the Yigong Territory has captured a lot of independent territories in the Eastern Continent. When an independent territory is first won, it often requires the Yigong Territory to invest a lot of gold coins and resources, and there will be no return in the short term. It doesn't matter whether this independent territory was obtained through the war of destroying the country or directly persuaded to surrender by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

  Of course, the independent territory obtained through direct persuasion to capitulate will suffer relatively little damage. Generally, after a small amount of investment in the Yigong territory, it will basically be able to gain benefits after 3 months.

  As for the independent territory obtained through the war of destroying the country, it mainly depends on the degree of destruction during the war of destroying the country. The best ones generally take half a year to get the benefits.

In this context, Qu Mao is not willing to continue to increase the number of soldiers, and in the independent territory that has been captured for a long time, Su Yan has been building infrastructure and water conservancy and livelihood projects since the beginning of the year, and the amount of gold coins and resources consumed is not high. few.

On the eastern peninsula of the Eastern Continental Bay, on the 600-kilometer border with the Mughal Empire, another 10 towns were built in the territory of Yi Gong to confront the Mughal Empire. These new towns are not to mention the gold coins for construction And resources, just relocating residents also needs to use a lot of gold coins. After all, the necessary resettlement fees for relocating residents still need to be paid.

  At this juncture, increasing the number of soldiers leads to an increase in military expenditures, which is tantamount to quenching thirst with poison.

   Telling Xinping that he was considering increasing troops on August 5, it was not that Qu Mao’s cheating value was not enough for Krypton Warrior recruitment coupons, but because he was worried that the gold coins in the account of Yigong Territory were not enough to support it.

At least wait until July 31, after Yigong Territory has deducted the military expenses in July, plus some expenses at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, after the settlement is clear, see the remaining balance of the Yigong Territory account on the territory property panel How much is it before we can continue to consider the matter of adding fighters.

Of course, up to now, it is still a problem that the cheating value in Qu Mao’s cheating system does not exceed 100 million points. Qu Mao has always wanted to wait until his cheating points have accumulated enough to use 100 million points, just to see if he has accumulated enough 100 million points After clicking the cheating value, is there a new change in the cheating system?

   But in any case, even if there is a need to replenish troops on the battlefield in the eastern peninsula of the eastern mainland bay, it will be on August 5th.

  On August 1, the sixth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao got up late because he went to the market in the early hours of the previous night to conduct transactions, but Su Qiaoer told Qu Mao to visit the outlying island shipyard through remote communication.

  I vaguely heard Su Qiaoer say that it was in the Fukumura Shipyard on Outlying Islands, and it seemed that the shipbuilding process had achieved a technological breakthrough.

  Fucun Shipyard, as the earliest shipyard in Yigong Territory, has always had a weak sense of existence. Suddenly hearing that Fucun Shipyard has made a breakthrough in shipbuilding technology, Qu Mao immediately became excited.

  In fact, among all the large-scale functional buildings in Yigong Territory, Qu Mao was most dissatisfied with the shipyard.

From the initial acquisition of the construction drawings of the shipyard to the construction of a large number of shipyards in Yigong Territory, it seems that the shipyards in Yigong Territory can only build some small sampans or civilian ships forever. The biggest contribution to Yigong Territory is to assist The naval barracks repairs battle-damaged warships.

Suddenly he heard that there was a breakthrough in shipbuilding technology, and Qu Mao suddenly felt like he could see the moon when the clouds opened, so he decisively pulled out a war horse from the backyard of the lord's hut, rode on the horse and headed towards the south of Yi Island at the fastest speed Komura rushed away.

   Then on the Ziguang trail in the underground world, Qu Mao still rode his horse and galloped. He didn't slow down when he left the island to the small village. He ran along the repaired stone road to the Fucun shipyard.

Fortunately, Li Xiang built the mainland of the outlying island a long time ago. Even so, it took Qu Mao a full hour and a half to rush to the Fucun Shipyard. The horse was already exhausted and out of breath. This was due to the factor of game data Otherwise, Qu Mao thought that the war horse might be exhausted to death.

  As soon as he arrived at Fucun Shipyard, a technician greeted Qu Mao.

   Qu Mao couldn't wait to ask: "What kind of technological innovation does the shipyard have? Did it research the manufacture of new ships?"

  The technician invited Qu Mao to go to the embankment of the shipyard, and said, "My lord, please go to the anti-ballista platform. The actual fire test will be carried out soon, and you will understand it when you see it."

  Up to the embankment, the soldiers of the guard army were manipulating a coastal defense ballista, and said to Qu Mao: "My lord, I think you should use a telescope to take a closer look."

  Following the good, Qu Mao took out his binoculars to search the sea, and sure enough, he found a 20-meter-long civilian ship on the sea less than 400 meters away. The side of the ship was only about 3 meters above sea level.

   Just when Qu Mao was puzzled, the coastal defense ballista fired a crossbow arrow with a "collapse", and the civilian ship in the field of view of Qu Mao's telescope shook.

  Qu Mao put down the binoculars and said, "What is this? How can a civilian ship withstand the fire of a coastal defense ballista within range?"

  The technician said: "Please wait at the dock for a while, sir."

  Dubiously following the technicians back to the dock below the embankment, the civilian ship that was hit soon returned to the dock and docked in front of Qu Mao.

   Qu Mao glanced at the civilian ship docked in the dock, his eyes narrowed for a moment, and he murmured after a long while: "Damn it! I actually built an iron-clad ship. This technological breakthrough is a bit big, right?"

The technician was stunned for a while, then said: "My lord, I don't understand what ironclad ship is, but this ship is indeed a technological innovation of our shipyard. In the early days, it was only to prevent fishing boats from sinking when they hit the rocks when they went out to sea, but some people said that it can be used by the military. , that’s why I invite you, my lord, to come and have a look.”

Qu Mao was stunned for a moment, and then took a closer look at the civilian ship moored in the dock. There was a fist-sized dent in the place where the crossbow arrow shot, and then Qu Mao roared sadly: "Damn it! It's just a cover. A layer of iron armor."
