Chapter 203 Ship Weapons, Small Catapult [2/7]
Chen Ming took the boat and made a big circle among the Black Sea islands.
He checked the various islands and pirate ports, and after leading people to buy some supplies, he really left the Black Sea Islands.
What he did was to investigate the number of ships with the statues of the Pearl Goddess, and to investigate the strength information of the Pearl Goddess Fleet.
At the same time, he also counted the number of various pirate ships currently in the Black Sea Islands, and came to a general conclusion.
The Pearl Goddess pirate fleet has 107 ships.
Most of them are ordinary pirate ships with a length of more than ten meters and two thousand meters.
It's just that the statue of the Pearl Goddess is carved on the ship.
Each ship can probably carry thirty or forty pirates.
The largest ship among them, Chen Ming just looked at it from a distance, and it was impossible to get close to it, but Chen Ming calculated it in his heart, and he knew that the largest ship was about the same as the ordinary Galen ship in Yanyun Port.
Forty or fifty meters long.
The number of pirates in the Pearl Goddess pirate fleet is also about three or four thousand.
Among the scattered pirate ships in the Black Sea Islands, there are about fifty or sixty ships, and the number of them is about one or two thousand.
Although this number may increase in the future, it should not increase much.
In the end, Chen Ming determined that the force they were preparing to attack Yanyun Port should be close to 200 ships, and the number of people may reach more than 6,000.
And after Chen Ming's observation, he found that the pirates in the Pearl Goddess Pirate Fleet are very different from other ordinary pirates.
It can be seen from the situation, walking, and usual demeanor.
Their usual demeanor, as well as their walking posture, are more like they have undergone some formal military training.
It was very similar to the naval soldiers in Yanyun Port, Chen Ming was startled.
The people in the Pearl Goddess Pirate Fleet are not like ordinary pirates at all, but more like some kind of naval fleet.
Chen Ming felt in his heart that this Pearl Goddess pirate fleet might not be that simple, at least, it couldn't be as simple as ordinary pirates.
After Chen Ming finished his investigation, he left the Black Sea Islands with his five ships.
In a certain port in the Black Sea Islands, Patrick, who was inspecting, was standing at a port. He frowned as he watched the fleet going away from afar.
Just now he took a long look at Chen Ming and the people he brought, and immediately felt something was wrong.
But something was wrong, and he couldn't speak.
It wasn't that there was something wrong with Chen Ming himself, but that they stood together, giving people a feeling that something was wrong. This feeling is not something ordinary pirates can have.
"Kuno, what happened?"
A follower next to Patrick looked at him in a daze, and asked respectfully.
As for the word Kuno, it is obvious what kind of pronoun it is, and it is different from the head of the regiment, the captain, and the like.
I don't know what it means.
"fine."
"Continue to inspect."
Patrick shook his head, then left the port and walked towards the small island.
Yanyun City.
Inner Palace City, Qinzheng Palace.
Su Chen was in the Hall of Qinzheng, when Mocheng Gui walked in, and he saluted Su Chen: "My lord, the batch of kerosene from Qingshi City has arrived.
"Has the oil arrived yet?"
Hearing this, Su Chen folded up the roll of wooden slips in his hand and put them down, then stood up from the chair.
"Yes, it has arrived just now, my lord, this batch of kerosene can not only be used to defend the city, but also can be developed and used by subordinates again for naval battles with ships.
Mocheng Gui nodded and continued.
"For naval battles with ships, Mocheng Gui, I remember you were born in the Mohist school.
Su Chen looked at the Mocheng track.
"Yes, my lord, it seems that you already know what I think."
Mochenggui smiled slightly.
Before that, Su Chen asked Yunsha of Qingshi City for a batch of kerosene and other flammable items for military use.
It has now arrived at Yanyun City.
Regarding this batch of kerosene, Su Chen was influenced by various materials and film and television works when he was on earth, so there are naturally many ways to use it.
And Mo Chenggui was born in the Mohist school, so he can make all kinds of equipment himself.
So, Su Chen thought of it, let Mochenggui make some small trebuchets, and then put the fire oil in the jar, ignite it, and use the trebuchet to project it out.
Place and use on ships for naval battles.
The effect is great.
And Mochenggui is also a smart person, even when Su Chen told him that a batch of kerosene would arrive, he had already started making (Ji Zhao Zhao's small trebuchet.
"..Three small trebuchets have been built, and now they can be used with kerosene for projection experiments."
Mexico City track.
"very good."
Su Chen nodded, and then walked out together with Mocheng Rail, and came to a school ground within the Inner Palace City.
At this moment, in the middle of the school grounds, there are three small trebuchets that are no more than two meters high.
Because it is to be used in naval battles, put it on a ship, it can do a lot
Again, it has been tested with stones in advance, and the range is only tens of meters away.
Next to the small trebuchet, a sergeant named Habayashi was carrying pots one by one, putting them down and lining them up neatly.
Among the pottery pots is the kerosene robbery. .
