The surrounding Huainan Lang officials immediately felt a strong killing intent, and they all turned their faces away, concentrating on their own work, even Lei was coughing, pressing the sword, taking square steps, patrolling in a serious manner, patting Lang Guan's shoulder from time to time."
Be careful, don't be careless.""
Whoa."
Lang Guan also replied solemnly, his voice was loud and his expression was focused.As for Wei Qing, he was lying on the side of the boat, and he didn't seem to move from beginning to end."
Look, they didn't see anything."
Liu Ling turned around, opened his arms, and a smug smile appeared on his face.At this moment, she is no longer the high-ranking Huainan Weng Lord, just a child with countless friends.Liang Xiao stroked his forehead.Liu Ling has been a bit infantilized recently, and he often habitually plays tricks and sells cuteness, except for the brocade clothes on his body, he is no different from ordinary women."
Tell me quickly."
Liu Ling grabbed Liang Xiao's arm and dragged him to the cabin."
I've been thinking about it for two days, but I can't figure out why you want to dismantle my ship.Why" Liang Xiao thought about it carefully, until Liu Ling pursed his lips and was about to get angry again, he said: "Master Weng, in the pool, no, when there is water in the soup pool and there is no water, do you feel anything different" Liu Ling blinked his eyes, as if he understood or not."
When there is no water in the soup pool, have you noticed that the boat is different from before" Liu Ling was even more confused.She was annoyed.Owe over here.Stretch out your two fingers for Zen.said angrily: "If you don't say it, I'll pinch you." ”Liang Xiao's cheeks twitched, and he didn't dare to sell it anymore, so he had to honestly explain the truth of the center of gravity.In this era, the building ship could be used as a combat ship, but it was usually used as a command ship of the main general, and did not directly participate in the battle.In order to show the majesty of the main general, the building ship will be built very high.In this way, there is a serious problem: the center of gravity of the building ship is too high and does not resist the wind.The largest shipyard in Dahan is in Yuzhang.Yuzhang is already in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River.The wind and waves are not small, but they are much weaker than those at sea in terms of frequency and intensity.Even so, when sailing in the Yangtze River, the building ship will also pick up the wind when the wind is light, and once the wind is too strong, it will choose to enter the port to avoid the wind.Liang Xiao wants to dig a large pond on the boat and fill it with seven feet of water.These waters are dozens of tons large, which will seriously raise the center of gravity of the building ship, and once there is wind, it is easy to cause capsizing.In order to reduce this danger.Liang Xiao not only had to dig the pool at the bottom and cling to the deck.It is also necessary to remove all the upper floors and lower the center of gravity as much as possible.Liu Ling listened patiently and woke up like a dream."
You still know about shipbuilding," Liang Xiao hurriedly shook his head."
I don't know about shipbuilding, it's just basic common sense" Before he could finish speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing again.Liu Ling's eyes were a little bad, like an enraged lioness.He quickly diverted the subject."
Lord Weng, if you want to travel overseas, there are still a few problems to solve, so that you can run rampant all over the world and stand alone in the world.""
Say."
Liu Ling clenched his small fist and waved it twice, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes."
First, the ship should further lower the center of gravity, and if there is an opportunity, you should investigate and consider sea vessels.A boat in the sea is not the same as a boat in a river.Second, you have to learn to use the wind, which is what I'm about to say to you.Third, you have to learn to use the stars to orient.When you arrive in the vast sea, there is water all around, and you can only rely on the stars to locate it" Liu Ling interjected: "Do you mean astrology" "Astrology" "I have heard that astrology in the sea is to locate according to the stars when sailing on the sea. ”"There's this thing," Liang Xiao was a little confused.Is the navigation technology of the Han Dynasty so good?"
I have only heard of its name, and I have not been in detail, whether it is or not, it still needs to be verified.However, filial piety is forbidden, business travel is all over the world, there are many overseas merchants in and out of the Central Plains, they should come from the sea, and it is not impossible to locate according to the stars.Let's put this aside for a while, and you can talk about it, what's going on with that borrowing wind power" Liang Xiao calmed down his mood."
Lord Weng was almost taken away by my clothes just now" Liu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly realized."
You mean, some of these cloth bags to take a ride, and use the wind to sail the boat" Liang Xiao hurriedly offered a sycophant."
Lord Weng is wise.""
And," Liu Ling smiled.She rolled her eyes and said, "How did you come up with this idea?"
"I just now" "Okay, okay, when you don't drink, you don't have a few words of truth."
Let's talk about how to make cloth bags. ”Liang Xiao was speechless.He had to put aside those rights and wrongs and talk about the ship by the wind first.There was no big timber on the ship that could make a mast, so they had to put it on first, and made some small sails with brocade silk in the cabin, and hung them on the side of the ship, although the effect was not as good as the big sails, but it also saw the effect of the poles, and the speed of the ship increased a lot at once.When the wind is strong, there is no sailor paddling at all, and the boat can take advantage of the wind.Looking at the bulging brocade sails on the side of the bow of the boat, Liu Ling couldn't help but be overjoyed, and even the officials of Huainan Kingdom were amazed, and their eyes were a little more strange when they looked at Liang Xiao.Everyone knows that the wind is strong, and everyone may have been blown by the wind and can't stand still, but Liang Xiao is the first person who can think of this way and use the wind to sail.Thinking of the previous saddle stirrups, Liang Xiao has become a very talented craftsman who is good at thinking in the mouths of Lang officials.Liang Xiao deserved it.As far as he knew, even without his involvement, the Han Chinese would soon be able to invent sails.This thing is not complicated, maybe someone has already used it, but it has not been taken seriously, and only when the maritime trade has become large-scale and more people have used it, will it enter the field of vision of the historian.By the way, this year, the historical records have not yet appeared.All historical records are official archives, and there is no official dynastic history, let alone a general history.Even if there are history books, they are only clauses that record major political events like the Spring and Autumn Period, and will not record the invention of the sail.As far as he knew, the evidence that finally confirmed that there was a sail in the Han Dynasty was not from historical books, but from the Ming utensils buried in the tomb.As soon as he thought of this, Liang Xiao couldn't help but sigh.With the help of dozens of small sails, the speed of the boat was greatly increased, but the oarsmen were much more relaxed.The helmsman quickly adapted to how to coordinate with the sail and control the direction.Working people are smart, but they are not educated and cannot write down their unique opinions and pass them on to future generations.Seeing that Jinfan puffed up the wind and pushed the building boat forward through the waves, Liu Ling stood on top of the flying house with only one floor left, thoughtful.Two days later, Liang Xiao and others arrived at the sea outside Dongye, that is, the mouth of the Minjiang River.All in all, with wind assistance, the speed is at least two or three times faster than that of pure manpower, and the labor intensity of the oarsmen is also significantly reduced.Liu Ling invited Liang Xiao and Weiqing to the cabin."
Dongye is coming, what plan can you have" Liang Xiao and Wei Qing glanced at each other and shook their heads.Liang Xiao said: "I don't have any plans, go directly to my master and see what he means, if" Liu Ling interrupted Liang Xiao.If he is willing to accept the appeasement, everyone will be happy.If he doesn't accept the appeasement, you will find a way to escape," Liang Xiao nodded awkwardly.That's exactly what he thought.When he arrived in the capital of Minyue, he was not familiar with the place, so if he didn't do this, what else could he do?"
”Liang Xiao was overjoyed.To be honest, he has foresight of the overall situation, which is not comparable to Liu Ling, but his ability to deal with this kind of specific affairs is a distance between him and Liu Lingbi.If Liu Ling is willing to help him come up with ideas, the probability of success in this matter will inevitably increase.He stared at Liu Ling for a long time without blinking, but Liu Ling did not speak.Liang Xiao was a little uneasy."
Lord Weng" "I want to go with you." ”"No" Liang Xiao didn't think about it and immediately refused."
If we are in danger, Wei Qing and I still have a chance to escape, and if we take you again, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.You sank a lot of Minyue warships at the mouth of the Songjiang River, and captured Zhengwu and Jingzhao alive, whether it is the king of Minyue or Liu Ju, they will be very angry when they see you.Maybe when they see you, they will take you and take you hostage. ”"It is precisely because I captured Zhengwu and Jing Zhao alive that this matter has to be discussed."
Liu Ling smiled confidently: "Do you want to take me there" Liang Xiao was speechless, so he had to look at Lei Fu for help.Ray smiled bitterly and sighed.It seems that Liu Ling has already explained to him, and he can only stand by Liu Ling's side now."
Since Lord Weng is determined to go, then we have to sacrifice our lives to accompany the gentleman.Can you tell us your plan now?"
”Liu Ling waved his hand, like a general commanding thousands of troops.The building ship entered the port, found a relatively remote location to stop, went to the flag of Huainan country, put down a few small boats, loaded the goods, went ashore to communicate, replenish supplies and fresh water.Liu Ling got into the carriage, and Lei was taken by two Langguan attendants and entered the city separately from Liang Xiao and Weiqing.After the rendezvous, Liu Ling ordered: "Go to the Zhengfu." ”Liang Xiao was taken aback.You captured Zhengwu alive, and you dare to go to Zhengfu to Zhengfu, it's okay to say, it's strange that Zheng'er doesn't shoot you with an arrow."
If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger."
Liu Ling smiled lightly: "It's best for women to communicate with women, I'll get you this little junior sister first, and other things will be easy to do."
Let's go, don't be verbose, I'll listen to you all the way, and now I'll let you see what I'm capable of. ”Liang Xiao had no choice but to put away the paperwork, put on an ordinary knight's suit, and escorted Liu Ling to the Zhengfu to be continued.
