Chapter 1728: 0 ton battleship
When he left London, Marin's opera was elite, and he started an exaggerated star-style performance. I saw him embarrassingly embark on the ship. After boarding, facing the audience on the London dock, Marin also publicly pulled out his sword "Frost Sorrow", cut off a guardrail on the ship, and shouted loudly-Ma Princess Grete is her daughter-in-law and can only marry her son Caesar. Whoever dares to snatch, whoever is cut ...
His performance really bluffed many people. Some nobles in England began to worry about a civil war in the country. After all, Marin had two 10,000 legionaries in England. Anxious for him, leading the soldiers to rebel is not a thing at all.
Even Marin's performance bluffed the French. François I was very happy when he heard that Malin and England were in a very unhappy situation. He summoned his cronies and nobles and secretly discussed the possibility of using Marin to provoke the British Civil War.
After all, if Marin ’s army provokes a civil war in England, England must be in a mess. By that time, France had the opportunity to annex England.
According to the inference of Francois I and his followers-whether Edward wins or Marin wins, France will benefit the fisherman.
Marin is not a weak chicken, but a ruthless man. Even if Edward can win, he will inevitably suffer heavy losses. By then, it will be difficult to resist the French invasion.
If Marin wins, he is also happy. Because, Marin captured England, the name is not correct. By then, he would be able to seize England in the name of revenge for Edward. Sure, you can get a lot of response from the English aristocracy ...
It is a pity that Francois I did not know that all these thoughts were just fantasy. Because Edward would not be so stupid as to flip his face with Marin. Even the English are ready to take the Calais fortress ...
...
Back at Emden, Marin went to the indoor swimming pool at the secret base to visit the diver training. Divers are very powerful arms. In future generations, divers in the military are also called frogmen.
Frogmen are very powerful arms. They can conduct underwater reconnaissance, they can also dive close to enemy ships, and use bombs to blast the bottom of enemy ships.
Moreover, in this era, frogmen's natural enemy dolphin soldiers and underwater sonar are absent. If the frogmen are trained, they can be used to blast enemy warships.
For example, frogmen can dive underneath enemy main battleships. Then, using a suction cup device, the bomb was adsorbed on the bottom of the enemy ship and detonated.
The ships of this age were all wooden ships, but they could not withstand the explosion of bombs. Once the bottom of the ship leaks, the European-style sailboat has no watertight compartment design and can only sink ...
Of course, in order to achieve combat objectives, the North Sea State must also develop a suction cup device for fixing bombs. At the same time, a powerful bomb needs to be developed.
Black gunpowder is too weak to be suitable for blasting ships. Therefore, Marin wanted to develop a more powerful bomb.
In fact, Marin already has smokeless gunpowder. However, if this thing is not passivated, the performance is very unstable, and once passivated, the burning speed becomes slower, and it is not suitable as an explosive. Therefore, Marin must find another way.
It is a pity that Marin does not understand the manufacturing technology of the famous C-4 in later generations, and can only regret to give up this artifact.
Then, he didn't understand bitterness or something. Tine or something is not clearly stated in later generations ...
Well, then, there is only one choice-Nobel Explosives ...
The most classic Knott's explosive is nitrate-glycerin-oil with diatomaceous earth. This is relatively easy, that is, concentrated nitric acid reacts with glycerin, and then, mixed with diatomaceous earth.
But it is said that this thing is super fierce. Nobel tried to kill his younger brother.
Marin did not dare to engage in this thing himself, and could only find a few who were not afraid of death to experiment. As for how to achieve a safe ratio, it can only be tried with human life. Anyway, he was afraid to personally configure the experiment.
If the research of this Nobel explosive is successful, combined with a suction cup device and a moisture-proof ignition system, then the Frogman troops can let the Spanish and Portuguese fleets be called dad ...
...
In fact, in this operation in Calais, Marin can also send divers. But considering that it was still spring, the water was still cold. If you freeze the diver, it's not worth the loss. If he waited until the summer, Marin might have agreed to divers into combat.
But time does not wait for others, and in the summer, the French government and opposition may stabilize. At that time, sending troops may be taught by the French to be a man. Therefore, in a hurry, Marin can only count on the sewer iron gate to solve Calais' French defense.
...
After inspecting the training of the frogmen in the indoor warm water swimming pool, Marin originally planned to rush back to Aurich with Angela and Caesar, but Emden Military Port suddenly sailed back to a large ship, so Marin had to stay , Let Angela and Caesar go back first.
What big ship appeared in the military port? It turned out that the shipyard on Long Island, New York, successfully built a 1,000-ton battleship! The ship sailing into the port of Emden is the 1000-ton battleship test ship developed by Marin for the New York Shipyard!
As early as a few years ago, Marin gave the task of developing a 1,000-ton warship. In the beginning, this work was carried out at Emden Shipyard. However, after considering the factors of confidentiality, Marin transferred the mainly involved craftsmen to the New York Shipyard.
The shipyard on New York ’s Long Island has a pile of wood, all of which are high-quality oaks that have been cut down from the North American continent for at least several hundred years, mainly red oak. Moreover, they have been air-dried for more than two years, reaching the standards of shipbuilding.
At the Long Island Shipyard in New York, if you want to get qualified shipbuilding wood, it is terribly simple, just go to a rainproof shed where you can store wood. Moreover, every log can be used as a keel.
When the local North Sea shipbuilders first came to the New York Shipyard, they were ecstatic when they faced the logs suitable for keel storage in the rain shelter. But for a long time ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Because the logs suitable for keel are everywhere, these shipbuilders are numb. Even if the logs suitable for the keel are cut and broken down and made into ribs, they do not feel sorry.
Originally, the 1,000-ton battleship was designed and planned to start. However, Marin suddenly brought back a group of treasure ship craftsmen from Daming. Moreover, he ordered the craftsmen who knew how to build treasure ships to participate in the manufacture of 1,000-ton warships, and requested the application of watertight compartment technology to the manufacture of new warships ...
Then, the manufacture of the 1,000-ton battleship was pushed back. European shipbuilders are mainly responsible for the design and manufacture of keel structures. The craftsmen of Baoming Daming are mainly responsible for the design and manufacture of watertight compartments. Then, the two merged to complete the battleship ...
But precisely because of the fusion of the two schools, a lot of conflicts of ideas appeared at the beginning. Therefore, at the beginning, the cooperation between European craftsmen and Daming craftsmen was not pleasant, and there were many contradictions.
For this reason, the progress of shipbuilding has slowed down so much. It has been dragging on for several years, until the two craftsmen learned from each other, and let the east and west technologies be integrated, and finally successfully produced a thousand-ton warship with a watertight compartment design ...
With excitement, Marin came to the secret military port, boarded the 1,000-ton warship that had completed the test, and began inspection ...
