Britain's largest port.
This was originally a free port, but because of the Dreadnought-class battleships, the port is now full of soldiers.
No ships will be able to enter this port today.
All because of the big guy docked at this port.
It is so big that it cannot be docked at ordinary military ports.
Of course, for some other reasons, George III and the military decided to display it for the first time in Britain's largest free port.
It started in the early hours of the morning until now at eight o'clock in the morning, as the bells rang.
Declare that the time has come to reveal Him.
At this time, the port was also full of people.
Without exception, they all looked at the huge building in the port and exclaimed in amazement.
"Oh, Lord, what is this? It's so big."
"Is it a ship? Why is it made of iron? How did such a steel ship not sink on the sea?"
"See what's on board?"
"Is that a cannon? An adult can fit into such a cannon!"
…
The civilians, nobles, officers, and soldiers surrounding the port all, without exception, exclaimed in admiration at such a behemoth.
This is too big.
It's so big that it's uncanny.
Among the crowd, Mo Cheng and Hu Xier were actually invited to visit this behemoth.
This is the latest battleship developed by Britain.
However, Mo Cheng lost interest in this latest battleship developed by Britain after just one glance.
To him, this battleship was extremely familiar, as if it were a replica of Long Yan.
At this time, the British soldiers lined up to disperse the crowd and opened a path among the mountains and seas of people.
George III walked slowly with majestic steps.
With everyone watching, board the deck of this behemoth.
The scientists responsible for studying the ship followed closely and introduced the facilities on the ship to George III.
"Dear Your Majesty, this Dreadnought-class battleship has 10 main guns of the same model and with consistent ballistic performance."
"The 12-inch long 305mm main gun will deliver a devastating blow to any ship in the world."
"We used four sets of Longyan giant steam engines as its power source. According to our tests, the maximum speed can be increased to 21 knots, and it also has very reliable performance."
"In terms of speed, we believe we can compete with the Dragon Flame supply ship."
"At the same time, we have adopted new defensive armor. As you can see, this ship is almost entirely made of steel."
"This is due to the new material we have developed, which is lighter in weight but has stronger defense."
"In some important defense locations, we have even increased the armor thickness to 11 inches. This is unprecedented defensive armor."
George III nodded. He didn't understand these data but was quite satisfied.
This all sounds like it could compete with the Dragon Flame supply ship.
Arriving on the deck, George III's eyes lit up.
He saw many powerful cannons, the caliber of which was large enough for an adult to fit inside.
There is probably nothing that such a volley of artillery cannot destroy.
Seeing George III's shocked expression, Will, as the main researcher of this ship, smiled.
He pointed with his hand at the fort group in front.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to solemnly introduce to you the most important component of this battleship, the weapon system!"
"We used a total of ten main guns, one of which was symmetrically arranged on both sides. There were eight main guns with the maximum firepower on the whole side. The firepower advantage was doubled. No matter where the enemy launched the attack from, we were able to use at least nine main guns. artillery."
"This is nearly three times the number of main artillery pieces on our current ships."
"He also used twenty-seven 3-inch secondary guns to defend against enemy close attacks."
"Such a behemoth with such strong firepower can definitely be called fearless!"
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
George III responded in the affirmative. He looked at Will and praised: "You will be our British hero!"
"You brought us a very powerful battleship. I will let everyone remember your contribution."
Will bowed deeply and said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I am not very honored!"
George III patted him on the shoulder, and he walked to the bow of the ship and looked at the Britons under the ship.
They looked at His Majesty standing on this behemoth, and saw only the people around him, and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet."
The originally lively crowd suddenly became quiet.
Everyone was looking at George III.
King George III stood on the boat, glanced at it, and shouted loudly: "Today is a special day!"
"We in Britain have used the most powerful battleship in the world, a battleship without equal."
"He will bring peace to us in Britain!"
"We will form the most powerful navy to defend our peaceful life. No one can threaten us!"
"This battleship will have epoch-making significance!"
"We Britain will be invincible!"
"Let us offer our highest respect to Will, the designer of this battleship, who allowed us to win peace!"
King George III stepped aside and bowed slightly.
Thunderous voices erupted from the British crowd, they were all cheering and jumping for joy.
They are all so excited about this Dreadnought-class battleship.
Among the crowd, Mo Cheng and Hu Xier turned and left.
As Mo Cheng left, he sighed and said, "There will be chaos on the sea soon."
Hu Xier nodded in agreement, and the two left hand in hand.
As Newton, who participated in this research, he was slightly stunned when he saw Will receiving so much applause and praise.
According to his understanding, the core power component of this ship comes from dragon flames.
This ship is able to reach the fastest sailing speed of twenty-one meters, entirely because of Stephenson's adjustment of the Longyan steam engine.
The new material used to build the steel ship was invented by another scientist after studying the wreckage of the Longyan supply ship.
The dynamic design of the ship was his own.
Except for the installation and research and development of those cannons, it was Will who did it.
How could he have the nerve to say that he designed this ship?
The core of this ship comes from Long Yan's research results. They just used Long Yan's research results plus their own research improvements.
Newton was standing behind Will. He pulled Will inappropriately and asked, "Will, the power of this ship is a giant steam engine from Dragon Flame, and the materials are obtained by studying the materials on the supply ship."
"What does this have to do with you?"
Will's face froze and he didn't know how to refute.
