Chapter 201
Chai Lin said: "There are still many difficulties in building a blessing ship. The boiler and steam engine must be several times larger than this. The ship plan of the blessing ship must be suitable for installing propellers. Director Yu sent several craftsmen to work with Xiaoqi They will conduct experiments together for a few days to see if this installation is reasonable, and if there is no problem, they will refit four more centipede ships, and a total of five steam centipede ships will be handed over to the water army battalion for use. Then five more will be refitted for use by the caravan.”

"Okay, owner. I'll make arrangements now." Yu Hao said, "But I have a suggestion, the first batch of shipbuilding can start work on ten ships at the same time, it's better to build seven blessing boats and three flat-bottomed sand boats. "

"Oh, why?" Chailin asked puzzled.

"The lucky boat has a sharp bottom, strong ability to withstand wind and waves, and is suitable for the sea and the ocean. It is very troublesome in the northern seas. It is easy to support the bottom and hit the rocks. The flat-bottomed sand boat is different. It has a flat bottom and travels under the waves. The stability is poor, but it is not afraid of bottoming, and the draft is very shallow. But it is very suitable for driving along the coast, such as going to Quanzhou, Guangzhou and other city shipping companies. It is more suitable to use sand boats. If you go to the sea, it is more suitable to use Fuchuan. "

Chai Lin thought about why this is the case. In the short term, his maritime merchants will still go to the ports along the Song Dynasty.Even going to Koryo is a shallow sea with few big waves.The blessing boat and the flat-bottomed sand boat have to be matched. If you encounter a shallow water port, you can only go on the sand boat.

"It makes sense, then follow your proposal and build seven blessing boats and three sand boats in the first batch." Chailin said.

For the next two days, Yu Hao accompanied Ruan Xiaoqi and a dozen other sailor brothers to experiment with the steam centipede ship.Ruan Xiaoqi admired the ship, its strength was too strong, the loading speed was only a little slower, and the strength of the machine was very durable, and the downtime was very short.

What needs to be paid attention to is that enough coal, wood and well water with relatively good water quality are loaded on board.

This morning, the horns of the school grounds of the township barracks blew together, and Chailin mobilized his troops. The infantry and cavalry were all here, and all the troops assembled in the school grounds.

Chai Lin came with Ou Peng and Ma Lin on horses.

Chai Lin said: "The two new brothers, Ou Peng and Ma Lin, are both proficient in bow and horse and proficient in martial arts."

Ou Peng and Ma Lin clasped their fists to the generals and said, "I'm new here, please take care of me."

The generals said: "When you come, you are a family, and you will take care of each other in the future."

Chai Lin pointed to Lin Chong of the Heavy Cavalry Battalion and said in a low voice, "This is Lin Chong, the battalion commander of our Heavy Cavalry Battalion. He is now called Bao Chong."

Ou Peng was surprised and said: "It turns out that he is the coach. It is better to meet him if he is famous." Ou Peng originally wanted to say that the coach Lin was in Shuibo Liangshan, and why he came here, but there were too many people talking, and he didn't dare to say it. hypersensitive.

Lin Chong said, "Welcome two brothers."

Chai Lin pointed to Pang Wanchun and introduced: "This is Pang Wanchun, Battalion Commander Pang. With a bow in hand, there is no opponent within a hundred steps, and the light cavalry under his leadership moves like the wind."

Pang Wanchun clasped his fists together: "Welcome Brother Ou Peng and Brother Ma Lin. My brother has won the prize. I dare not say that I am invincible within a hundred steps. I just know how to shoot a few arrows."

"Hello, Battalion Commander Pang." The two saluted. They had heard that there was a good archer in the village barracks, but they didn't expect to be so young.

Lu Da said: "Sajia introduced himself, Sajia Luda has a Dharma name called Zhishen."

Ma Lin said: "It turns out that Battalion Commander Lu is the legendary monk Lu Zhishen who pulls willows upside down in the rivers and lakes."

Lu Da smiled and said, "That's right, it's the Sajia. People in the Jianghu still think that Lu Da, Lu Tiha, and Lu Zhishen are three people, but they are actually the names of the Sajia, hahaha. Two brothers, why don't you come to our sword shield camp?" , The Sword and Shield Battalion is heavy infantry, everyone has armor and giant shields."

Pang Wanchun said: "Battle Commander Lu has started robbing people now, but don't count on it. I can see from the postures of the two brothers riding horses that they are proficient in bows and horses. If you want to come, it is our light cavalry battalion."

Liu Xiongda was anxious at the side. Wu Song, the battalion commander of the Chongbu Battalion recently returned home, and the momentum of the Chongbu Battalion was a little weaker.

"Our battalion is the real heavy infantry battalion. Look at our extended horizontal sword, which was developed from the Zhanmajian of the Han and Tang Dynasties." Liu Xiongda said.

Ou Peng raised his eyes and saw that there were 200 people in this battalion, and each of them held a sharp horizontal knife as tall as a man.

Ou Peng and Ma Lin said: "Thank you for your kindness. Where the two of us will go and how to arrange it will depend on my brother's arrangement."

Chai Lin said: "Today just happens to be the big drill day, each battalion drills. The two brothers will take a look at it first, familiarize yourself with the rules in our army, and I will arrange duties for you later."

After the assembly, each battalion dispersed for training.The Chongbu Battalion practiced fighting, and the Sword and Shield Battalion practiced formation.

The Heavy Cavalry Battalion Today, Lin Chong explained the horse battle spear method again. A hundred soldiers with spears rule the roost. Lin Chong rode a spotted beast, wielding a zhangba snake spear gun. The speed of the horse was extremely fast. The spear came out like a dragon, stabbed the scarecrow's throat with a puff, and retracted the gun very quickly. Although a sprint and a sprint are simple, they require extremely high riding and marksmanship.

Ou Peng was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but praise: "What a powerful marksmanship".

Chai Lin said: "Brother Ou Peng, how would you like to watch Coach Lin fight?"

Ou Peng said: "Instructor Lin is united with a horse and a horse, and his marksmanship is perfect, which is rare in the world."

At this time Lin Chong had already turned back, and was saying to the soldiers of the Heavy Cavalry Battalion: "Whoever comes up, come up and compete with me, so that everyone can see."

Ou Peng thought to himself, Brother Chai Lin gave gold and silver, and gave him a precious sword. We have to reflect our own value. Although we are not as good as Lin Chong, we are also skilled in bowing and horses.

Ou Peng clasped his fists and said, "Brother, I want to go and do two tricks with Coach Lin, how about it?"

Chai Lindao: "The ethos in our camp is very open, and you can exchange ideas casually, but the swords and guns have no eyes, and you need to change wooden spears when you exchange ideas."

"it is good."

Ou Peng took a wooden gun with a white wax pole and came to Lin Chong, clasped his fists and said, "Teacher, Ou Peng dares to ask the teacher for some advice."

Lin Chong is very kind and is usually willing to teach.

Lin Chong said: "Brother Ou Peng, you are welcome, let's do a few tricks."

Lin Chong stretched out his hand, and a soldier came over with a wooden gun.

The piebald beast was overjoyed to see someone making a move, and raised its front hooves and howled loudly.

Although Ou Peng's light yellow horse is also one of the best horses in a hundred, it is a little weaker.

The two horses circled around, fighting dozens of moves with guns back and forth.

Ou Peng became more and more frightened as he fought. Lin Chong's gun seemed to be alive, and it was impossible to defend against it.If it is a real fight, it is estimated that it will be defeated after seven or eight moves. In fact, Lin Chong is pointing Ou Peng later.

After fighting for a while, Lin Chong reined in his horse and withdrew, saying: "Brother Ou Peng's marksmanship is very good, but his riding skills are not good enough. I'm afraid he won't be able to ride a horse for a while. Your yellow horse is not bad, and you will be a rare master with more training."

Ou Peng clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your guidance. The instructor's marksmanship is like a god. Ou Peng admires it."

Chai Lin said: "Brother Ou Peng, the Heavy Cavalry Battalion is short of manpower, only 100 people, and needs to be strengthened. How about you and Coach Lin as a lieutenant general?"

Ou Peng said: "Everything is at the disposal of my brother."

Lin Chong said: "Brother Ou Peng is very talented. Given time, he will also be a generation of famous generals. Welcome Brother Ou Peng to join the heavy cavalry camp."

Pang Wanchun of the Qingqi Battalion saw that Ma Lin would go to the Heavy Cavalry Battalion if he didn't attack.Although the Qingqi Battalion has a large number of people and has an establishment of 200 people, the time to form an army is short and there are few masters, so people are needed to join.

Pang Wanchun said: "Brother Ma Lin, come to our Qingqi Camp for a visit. Today we will practice Pegasus riding and archery. As long as you hit a target, you will get a small reward."

Ma Lin said: "Okay, don't know what the rules are?"

"There are ten dummies on the right hand side of the runway. Pegasus runs over here, shooting arrows while running. As long as three arrows hit the dummy, it is considered qualified. Today's reward is a box of salted duck eggs. The brothers all want to win. The salted duck eggs are home for the New Year." Pang Wanchun said.

 Ask for monthly tickets and recommended tickets.
