Chapter 2941 Can't ride the wind (eight)

When it comes to the ancient Roman Empire, it is easy to think of legions in red clothes marching in the flying dust, but as a big country that spans Europe, Asia and Africa, and turns the Mediterranean Sea into its own inland sea, of course it needs a navy. At that time, they mainly used three-layer oars for their warships, and they did not make them themselves. Most of the ships were built by craftsmen recruited from the alliance cities in the Apennine Peninsula.

The initial purpose of the sudden expansion as a barrier to wave-making resistance was as a collision angle. Since the Romans had the advantage in land warfare, and the sea warfare was the housekeeping skill of the Carthaginians, so in the process of fighting for Sicily, Rome initially at a disadvantage.

However, Rome is as good at learning as the Mongols. The Romans learned not only myths from Greece, but also a kind of suspension bridge with a sharp beak installed on the battleship. It is called the "crow suspension bridge". It can be used for siege, as a ladder, or it can be lowered to hit the opponent's hull with its sharp "bird beak". At that time, the Carthaginians liked to use the ramming angle of the ship's stern to damage the flanks of enemy ships. They had a sailing tradition of nearly a thousand years and were more skilled than the Romans, but the "crow suspension bridge" shortened the gap.

Installing the "crow suspension bridge" has both advantages and disadvantages. It will change the center of gravity of the ship and seriously damage the balance of the hull. In fact, the ship has a center of gravity, buoyancy and center of stability, which will change with the change of the loading position. In order to make the ship float stably , will use ballast.

This is summed up from experience. If you can meet an experienced first officer or captain, you can easily and safely reach your destination. Although you can't paddle like young people when you are old, being old doesn't mean losing everything.

When the Romans lost this ability to learn, the nobles stayed in the city of Rome, enjoying cheap food from Egypt, completely ignoring the farmers of their own country, and the decline was unstoppable.

The ancient Roman warships used free people. When the soldiers on the deck were not enough, they only needed to go to the cabin to shout, and a temporary army could be formed immediately. At that time, the Romans regarded joining the army as an honor. You can even change your own destiny.

"What do you think of this?"

Pomona looked up to see that it was Severus, who was also looking at the drawings on her desk.

"Are you still going to 'attack'?" he asked.

"No." Pomona said calmly, "I remember what you said."

He placed a basket on her desk in the conservatory "Eat it while it's hot."

Pomona endured for a while, lifted the lid of the basket, and took out the food inside to eat.

She gnawed on the sandwich like chewing wax, and she hadn't eaten in the castle since last week. Although she was not locked up, she still felt like eating in prison.

"And soup." Severus brought out a plate of chickpea soup from the basket. "I brought it back from the Leaky Cauldron."

"You went to reconcile with Rita Kistor!?" Pomona couldn't help raising her voice, with food residues everywhere in her mouth.

"No." He said cautiously.

"Then what are you doing at the Leaky Cauldron?" asked Pomona.

"Do you want to drink or not?" He asked coldly.

Pomona glanced at the plate of soup. This is a "famous dish" that few Leaky Cauldron bars can offer.

She picked up a spoon and ate a few mouthfuls. There was no need for her to struggle with food.

She drank the soup like a whale, what is that called? Turn grief and anger into appetite?

When the soup was gone, she let out a long sigh.

Tom Riddle has become a thing of the past, and Voldemort has become his new name. Because people are afraid of him, they dare not even say this pseudonym, and use the mysterious man to refer to him.

A person with such prestige falls into the hands of a little baby. This is what Severus said when he persuaded her. Emily will graduate in half a semester, and she will leave school regardless of whether she takes the newt exam or not. Mona is going to stay, how will she get along with teachers and students with such a "halo" in her future?

In the Dream of Red Mansions, there is Aunt Zhao, she is in a position that can neither go up nor down, neither like a master nor a slave, but the master's good deeds are not up to her, and the servant girl dares to fight with her.

If a person is generally not respected by others, then she has to find the reason in herself. She is ignorant and competitive, so she can tell right from wrong. Anyone who encounters such a woman will consider themselves unlucky, and Rita Kistor has added another rumor to make trouble, saying that Scamander has abandoned the macusa chairwoman.

How many days has he been to America? Can you hook up with Serafina so soon?

"Oh, I'm so pissed off!" Pomona put the empty plate on the table.

Severus poured some unknown liquid into her glass.

"What's this?"

"drink."

Don't think I'm afraid of you!

She cursed, but still drank the "potion".

She felt a lot lighter after drinking it, and then hiccupped and giggled.

"What's this?" Pomona asked.

"Wangyoushui, how do you feel?"

"Much better," she said lazily.

"She won't 'rule' this place for long." Severus said coldly, "The new queen is leaving the hive."

Pomona was not happy at all. Although she was in a state of isolation, she had heard that "Asha" was said to be weak to attract "unlucky knights", but she was not so "sickly" at all.

"Amata" always had an image of a perfect lover in her heart, but the "unlucky knight" had no white horse and was not like a prince, so she urged him to work hard. However, Gryffindor boys are generally lazy, and "Amata" pushed him so hard, so he didn't even want to work hard. He and "Asha" joined the same club, and on a few occasions the event was a little late, and the "Unlucky Knight" volunteered to send her back to the lounge.

"Asha" made him feel like a hero, and "Amata" always frustrated his confidence. When "Amata" learned about the two of them, he felt betrayed, and then "Amata" wrestle together.

"Asha" is not really weak, "Amata" dared to fight back when she pulled her hair, and then it was ugly.

Others looked at it like this and thought it was worthless, especially from "Ravenclaw by the Serene Lake". Seeing that a boy had done something wrong, Pomona held back his anger.

Albus also hopes that Gryffindor and Hufflepuff will not be at odds because of this incident, and Emily and her friends who caused all this have become "queens" like Severus said, don't say Hit them, and the sensible thing to do is to get out of the way when they appear.

They didn't do it themselves, although they also have good strength and can easily stun 100 little bats.

Their next target should be the old bat in front of Pomona. After driving away the annoying teachers, this school will be theirs.

Do you have any dark secrets? For example, you have a crush on someone you shouldn't have a crush on, or you hide some kind of contraband. As long as these secrets are mastered by them, you must obey them, otherwise they will spread it to everyone.

This model is relatively unfamiliar to the West, but there is an organization called Jinyiwei in the East. Their duty is to secretly monitor the words and deeds of the military and government officials. They even ransacked the house of the powerful Rongguo Mansion.

Every community has a few housewives who love to pry into other people's privacy. Although Emily is still a young girl, she is essentially the same as them.

"Are we going to search the dorms?" Pomona asked.

"Are you afraid of her?" Severus asked.

"I'm afraid of her?" Pomona sneered.

"That's it?" Severus asked. "How about today?"

Pomona was silent.

"Coward." He said coldly, just about to leave.

"I was wondering if I should call the students from the student union together." Pomona said coldly, "What are you in a hurry for?"

He looked back at her.

"Did you notify Isabella beforehand?" Pomona asked.

"No."

"Then let's go." Pomona put on her witch's hat and went to "surprise".
