Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

When Wang Hongchang heard Lin Yi's words, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

He had already promised Lin Yi to join the First Legion, and his only wish was to give away the two battleships.

He felt that escorting the two battleships this time would be his last chance to board the battleship.

However, Lin Yi was not willing to give him even the last chance to board the ship. How could this not disappoint Wang Hongchang.

Wang Hongchang took a deep breath, and then said to Lin Yi with a rather disappointed expression: "I understand, I understand. Can I go to the port and take another look at the imperial warships?"

"What are you looking at those junk things for? What's there to see? Two outdated junk ships."

Lin Yi said with great disdain.

After hearing Lin Yi's words, Wang Hongchang stood up suddenly, like a tom cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"My lord, although you hold a high position, I don't agree with what you say! Those two battleships are already the most powerful battleships in the world!"

"And they are also the only two battleships in our Daxia! Although I promised you to join the First Army, I don't agree with you!"

Others on the side saw Wang Hongchang so excited and were afraid that he would do something outrageous, so they immediately began to persuade him.

"Brother Chang, don't, don't be angry, calm down!" Ding Yi grabbed Wang Hongchang's hand and motioned him to sit down quickly so as not to offend Lin Yi.

"Old Wang, don't get excited, sit down quickly." Qian Hongtao also came around, trying to push Wang Hongchang back to his seat.

Mo Shoucheng stood between Wang Hongchang and Lin Yi, fearing that Wang Hongchang would not understand and would take action against Lin Yi.

"Oh? It seems Hongchang, you don't believe it?" Lin Yi waved to everyone indifferently, signaling them to get out of the way first.

Lin Yi stood up slowly, then looked down at Wang Hongtao, and said slowly: "Hongchang, you are from the navy, so I would like to ask you, if there is a warship with a displacement of 1.8 tons and a full load of 2.1 tons. "

"A giant ship with five twin mounts, a 304mm main gun, a maximum speed of 21 knots, and a thickest breastplate thickness of 300mm."

"Compared with such battleships, are the Arrogance and Gaydon garbage?"

"What? 1.8 tons, with ten 304mm main guns?"

"How could there be such a big warship?" Wang Hongchang looked in disbelief.

He has been a veteran navy all his life and has never heard of such a large warship.

A current battleship can weigh seven or eight thousand tons, which is already called a big ship. But now, Lin Yi told him that there were even giant ships of nearly twenty thousand tons. Wang Hongchang's first reaction was disbelief.

"Hongchang, just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

"Is a [-]-ton warship big? I can tell you clearly that in the future there will be giant ships of [-] to [-] tons, or even [-] tons!"

"Is a 304mm main gun big? Have you ever thought that the main gun can even reach 460mm?"

"Hongchang, as a human being, you must look forward and not look at things from the perspective of the past."

Lin Yi said seriously to Wang Hongchang.

Indeed, compared with the Yamato, the largest battleship built by mankind, the so-called giant ship Dreadnought is like a child in front of giants.

With the Yamato's 460mm caliber, no warship dares to say that it can receive a round without getting hurt.

Human technology is always in progress.

Fortunately, Lin Yi doesn't have to climb the military technology tree, he just needs to light it up.

Lin Yi felt that he would be able to afford the Yamato sooner or later.

"My lord, where is the battleship you mentioned? Can I have a look? I'll just take a look from a distance." Wang Hongchang was silent for a moment and suddenly said to Lin Yi.

"Want to see it? You can't see it now, but it will be soon." Lin Yi smiled faintly.

"Why? Why can't you see it? And what does it mean to be fast?" At this time, not only Wang Hongchang was confused, but Mo Shoucheng on the side was also confused.

This time when they captured Jinghai Port, Mo Shoucheng's regiment suffered heavy losses because the coalition had giant ships.

If Daxia also had a giant ship like Lin Yi said, even just one, it would save a lot of lives.

Therefore, Mo Shoucheng also particularly hopes that Daxia can rebuild its navy.

"Why? Because those two battleships are still on the high seas! They haven't arrived yet, what do you think? Swim over?" Lin Yi said angrily.

"High seas? Not here?" Wang Hongchang was shocked when he heard Lin Yi's words.

He had just been so excited and wanted to see the giant ship that he neglected something very important.

Daxia does not have the ability to build ships, or in other words, Daxia does not have the ability to build giant ships.

So the one who can build such a warship will definitely not be Daxia, but most likely the John Empire, the strongest naval power in the world.

At this time, the John Empire sent such a large warship to Daxia. It could not be a friendly visit. Since it was not a friendly visit, it was most likely to seek revenge.

Today's Daxia can barely be considered a giant ship, and the only ones that can take part are the Arrogance and Gayden.

But the problem is that these two ships are still in Jinghai Port and are still undergoing repairs, so they have no way to participate in the war.

Once that giant ship launches an attack on Daxia, what will you do to resist it? If it cannot be resisted, then the entire city in Daxia will be destroyed by that battleship.

Thinking of this, Wang Hongchang suddenly became sweaty.

"Your Majesty, I feel that the warship has come with bad intentions. I hope you will take precautions! We cannot defend the towns along the coast. Please ask your Majesty to ask the emperor to order the people in the towns along the coast to evacuate at least thirty Kilometers! Otherwise, I, Daxia, will definitely suffer heavy losses this time!"

When Lin Yi heard Wang Hongchang's words, he was also confused. What does this mean? Could it be that Wang Hongchang thought that the battleship was coming to attack Daxia?

Well, when Lin Yi thought of this, he suddenly felt that it seemed reasonable for Wang Hongchang to think so.

After all, he didn't want to understand that those two battleships were given by the system.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi smiled slightly, and then said to Wang Hongtao: "Hongchang, don't worry, those two battleships were purchased by me."

"What, is this the battleship you bought, my lord?"

At this time, not only Wang Hongchang, but also everyone else present looked surprised.

A question suddenly popped up in their minds: When did the prince buy the battleship? Why didn’t I know? And why buy a battleship?

"Why, it looks like you don't believe it from your expressions?"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. You will know after the ship arrives in a few days."

"But your lord, we are the army, why do we buy battleships?"

"My lord, are you buying the battleship to give to the navy?" Mo Shoucheng followed Lin Yi and was the oldest among everyone present.

He did not think that his prince was a warm-hearted person and could not spend his own money to enhance the strength of others.

"Get out of here and give it to the navy? I bought it for my own use!"

"Also, what does it mean that we are the Army? Why do we buy ships? Who stipulated that the Army cannot have warships!" Lin Yi looked at Mo Shoucheng dissatisfied. He felt that he had not punished him for several days. He seemed to be naughty. It's itchy.
