The characteristics of the Qin people's boat troops are the same as those of the Qin army. There are many Qin soldiers, and the boat troops have many boats. The Qin people's warships that cover the big lake rushed over. Xiong Jing had previously thought that Chaos-class gunboats could send a battle-related rapid artillery bombardment to deal with, but a 32-pound cannon cannon is also two holes, which is difficult to deal with. In the wind, the sprint speed of the five-oil battleship can reach a terrifying thirteen knots (24km/h). One shot and two holes cannot prevent the Qin army's warships from sprinting and impacting.

The combat department has not conducted a collision test between the Chaos-class gunboat and the Five-Power Warship. It is not clear whether the 90-degree impact on the front of the Five-Power Warship can break the Chaos-class ribs, but no matter whether it is broken, the Chaos-class gangway will definitely be broken and caused water inlet. The 35-meter-long Chaos-class, which faces the enemy horizontally, may be violently impacted by three Five-Power Warships according to the length of the 35-meter-long boat. No one knows what consequences will be caused after three impacts.

"When will the Chaos Level be launched?" Xiong Jing asked about the sea boat gunboat.

"Report to the king, you have already entered the water." Gongshujian replied. "He is wearing outfits at this time."

"Don't install it for the time being, select a fake Qin warship to hit it, and know its damage." Xiong Jing ordered without regard to his minister's surprise.

The sea boat gunboat is different from the Taotie-class freight sea boat. The Taotie-class cost is only one gold per ton, and the Chaos-class requires about two gold per ton. This is not a heavy tonnage, but a drainage tonnage, so it does not include artillery powder. The cost of a Chaos-class gunboat is 1,050 gold. If you use 1,050 gold for the impact test, Gongshujian and others were all stupid.

"Please choose a place where the water is shallow and not heavy, it's just changing the ribs." Xiong Jing was of course reluctant, this was a new ship.

"How dare you ask the king how to sink the Qin people's warship?" After the order was finished, Bu Liangju asked the question he had always wanted to ask. The warships and artillery were all thought of by the king and made by the king. The king knew everything and would be able to solve the doubts.

"Good." Bu Liangju's question surprised Xiong Jing. He felt that he was asking good questions. Everything was complicated. Even though he had already seen two holes in one shot, he could not calm down and think about the question of why he shot two holes in one shot.

The king said good, and everyone looked at it respectfully, hoping that he could solve this problem. Unfortunately, Xiong Jing knew about ships and not guns. He knew many sailing naval cannons, but he did not know the development context of naval cannons in the sailing era. Just as he did not understand the development context of muskets and key technologies.

He thought for a long time under the gaze of his ministers. In order not to disappoint everyone, he could only say in the end: "I have already recorded this matter, and I have time to think about countermeasures." Seeing that the ministers were disappointed, he added: "Based on melee combat, thirty-two pounds are still too light."

"Too light?" The crowd was confused. In their opinion, thirty-two jin was already a heavy artillery.

"It takes sixty-four pounds." Xiong Jing remembered the British Caron cannons. The Caron cannons are thirty-six pounds and 68 pounds. The British pounds are different from the French pounds used by the Chu army, but it doesn't matter. "The best one hundred and twenty-eight pounds."

"One Hundred and Twenty-Eight kilograms?" Gongshujian, Gongshuling and others were almost falling. The weight of the cannon shell was proportional to the weight of the cannon body, and this ratio was one to two hundred. According to this ratio, the weight of the cannon shell of 120 kilograms should be 24,000 kilograms, that is, 6,000 kilograms. This weight plus the weight of the cannon car, a full eight tons will definitely crush the artillery deck, and the rear seat cannot be buffered. The keel wrapped in the giant iron plate will definitely be displaced due to the breaking of the cannon.

"No." Gong Shujian waved his hands repeatedly, "This cannon weighs more than eight tons, so it is absolutely not available."

"Then make it thin and light." Xiong Jing remembered that the Caron cannon was a cannon with a short range. Many people thought that the emergence of the Caron cannon was epoch-making, but he never understood why the emergence of the Caron cannon was epoch-making?

He didn't understand, but he was slowly understanding now that the eighteen-pound long cannon could penetrate most of the bulwarks of sail battleships at close range, and there was nothing that could not be penetrated with twenty-four-pound long cannons. However, this was just penetrated, exactly the same as what he saw now. If it was a chaotic battle or a clamp, one hole or two holes of the shell could accidentally hurt the friend's ship after piercing the enemy ship.

This is similar to the principle of a light arrow and heavy arrow. The shell is too light and the speed is too fast, and the bulwark passes through it. The shell is extremely heavy, although the speed is slow and the range is short, but it has a great potential, which can actually bring good damage effects. The Karon cannon is a product of this demand. Its function is not to break through the bulwark. Its function is to make all obstacles encountered when it is damaged as much as possible, and to make big holes in the bulwark and other things.

But this is not necessary for the Caron cannon. The Caron cannon was invented because the boring machine had been invented. The French who could not make the Caron cannon could only continue to build long cannons, and could not use the Wilkinson boring machine to bore the Caron cannon like the British. Before the Caron cannons, the Royal Navy's melee tactics could work. In addition to relying on well-trained gunners, one of the few-known secrets is that during melee battle, the gunner would stuff two or even three shells into the barrel, so as to achieve a higher shelling speed and obtain a greater destruction effect.

Xiong Jing did not expect that the damage effect of the Caron can be achieved by stuffing two shells into the barrel. After thinking about the Caron cannon, he had already focused on the Caron cannon and determined that this was the final solution. Gongshujian and Ou Chou couldn't help looking at each other. The Grand Sima Mansion has always had requirements for reducing the weight of the cannon, which can be reduced from six tons to two to three tons that the deck and buffer device can accept. It is really incredible.

"King, the fabric is thin and light. What if it is a blow-up, what should I do?" Ou Chou's face was serious. The cannons made by Ju Tie Mansion rarely exploded. Even if they exploded, they would not explode like those fake cannons, just the cannon body cracked.

"Then try it! If the shells are blown up, the shells can be reduced as appropriate." Xiong Jing knew that there were 68 pounds of Karon cannons, so he did not take back his opinions. "If you want to destroy the Qin warship, the shells must be heavy. The heavier the shells, the larger the holes, and the more sunken the warship."

"As the king said, the shells should be heavy." Naojiu agreed with Xiong Jing's point of view. "You can try it in Juti Mansion, remember to be quick."

"I respectfully accept the order!" Both the king and the great sir, and when they think of the current situation, Ou Chou's heart was unwilling, he immediately agreed. If he could really create a useful cannon of sunken boats, the situation would undoubtedly be a huge help.

Ou Chou was ordered. Seeing that the gunboat test was basically completed, Xiong Jing said again: "The tonnage of the large-wing gunboat is too small, which is not conducive to the arrangement of artillery. Although Shao Siming is a sea boat, the tonnage is still not large. In the future, the gunboats will be mainly Taotie-level and Chaos-level."

His statement was once again surprising, but fortunately Naojiu was clear about this. He added: "Next year, the Qin people may go out of the river, Ji River, and descend from the sea. At that time, the warships and warships, and the seaships will also fight."
