"This battleship is named Zhenyuan Ship! During the construction process, our Dahuangzhuang soldiers and civilians put in countless hard work and blood and sweat. It is your day and night construction that made this miracle possible!
During the construction process, many touching stories emerged, and more than ten people even sacrificed their precious lives! Today, on behalf of His Majesty and the people of the world, my concubine and I salute you! "
Together, Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan bowed in front of thousands of craftsmen and their families!
Thousands of people were full of tears and knelt down to return the favor!
Some of the officials were disapproving when they saw Queen Zhang Yan and Marquis Zhongyi treating lowly craftsmen like this, but it was not convenient to say anything at this moment.
Huang Xiao said loudly: "Your efforts will not be in vain, history will remember this moment today! My Chinese homeland will return to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty because of the Zhenyuan ship! My people of the Ming Dynasty will go to the world on the armored ship Everywhere, branches and leaves spread and thrive! This ship is the starting point of the great journey! The starting point created by you!"
The craftsmen, Zuo Guangdou, Song Yingxing and others all know what Huang Xiao is referring to!
At the same time, I also know that this is extremely significant! Everyone is excited!
But Yang Lian and others looked at each other in confusion, what kind of homeland of China? What does it have to do with this iron-hulled ship?
"We are now inviting the family members of the hero and representatives of outstanding craftsmen to board the ship first along with the queen!"
Dozens of family members and representatives came over.
Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan smiled at each other!
Zhang Yan was the first to board the ship.
Then came dozens of family members.
Next are the soldiers.
Then there are the hundreds of officials led by Huang Xiao.
Song Yingxing shouted: "Open the gate! Enter the water!"
The floodgates were opened.
The chimney also started to smoke.
Firecrackers sounded on the shore!
The Zhenyuan ship slowly sailed out of the dock amidst the cheers of the crowd on the shore! Entering the wide Chaobai River!
The craftsmen were so excited that they shed tears.
Huang Xiao was also extremely excited at the moment!
Zhenyuan ship! The Zhenyuan ship that was captured by the Japanese and dragged back to Japan for exhibition!
He created it in the Ming Dynasty!
The civil and military officials could not help but look at the retreating lake in shock!
It is really a wonder that such a heavy armored ship, carrying hundreds of people, can sail smoothly and easily in the turbulent Chaobai River!
Zhang Yan and Huang Xiao went to the top of the bridge.
The second floor is for craftsman representatives and operation rooms.
At the bottom level are the officials.
The soldiers were busy debugging the artillery.
Song Yingxing and Wang Zheng were on the deck to direct!
"The lake is so clear, and the view from a distance is so refreshing!" Zhang Yan exclaimed.
Huang Xiao nodded. In this pollution-free time and space, the mountains and clear waters are so beautiful that it makes people enchanted.
Huang Xiao said: "My dear, it's time to test the cannon! The noise is a bit loud, please step back and cover your ears."
Zhang Yan retreated and looked around. She saw no one else, and she was far from the shore. No one should see her covering her ears, but she thought about it and said, "No need!"
"Well, when you have sex, open your mouth and you won't feel uncomfortable."
Huang Xiao stepped forward and waved the flag!
The main gun in front waved a flag in response.
Huang Xiao retreated.
Not long after, a huge explosion sounded!
The hull of the ship seemed to be shaken.
Zhang Yan was shocked! In panic, Huang Xiao almost fell down, and Huang Xiao quickly helped him.
Zhang Yan was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she hugged Huang Xiao tightly.
"boom!"
"boom!"
Then there were two more loud noises, but it was two main guns firing in unison!
Huang Xiao gently patted Zhang Yan on the back and said in her ear: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, it's okay!"
Zhang Yan shuddered and woke up with a start. Her face suddenly turned red and she pushed Huang Xiao away.
"Just now I……"
Huang Xiao said calmly: "It was nothing just now. My sister-in-law was about to fall, so I helped her! Let's go and see the effect!"
"Yeah." Zhang Yan nodded.
The two of them went to the front of the ship island. Looking around, they saw that the open space with white circles was already in a mess.
When Song Yingxing saw the two of them, he shouted excitedly: "Mother, sir, all three shots were hit!"
Huang Xiao laughed and gave a thumbs up, "Great job!"
All the soldiers also cheered!
Huang Xiao waved his flag and the boat stopped and turned left on the river.
Soon, twenty-four artillery pieces were lined up on the side, and the muzzles were pointed at the firing area again.
"Mother, the noise should be quieter this time. You should go over and cover your ears!"
Zhang Yan was ashamed and angry, snorted and got off the ladder.
Huang Xiao smiled, waved the flag, and gave the order to fire!
He also walked down quickly, and saw Zhang Yan covering her ears. Seeing Huang Xiao coming over, she blushed and wanted to put her hands down, but she didn't dare. Huang Xiao couldn't help but laugh. .
Zhang Yan glared at Huang Xiao angrily and turned around.
"Boom boom boom!"
Twenty-four artillery pieces fired one after another.
Although the sound this time was smaller than that of the main gun, it was much more intensive.
Seeing Zhang Yan's body trembling, Huang Xiao's heart softened. He walked over and held Zhang Yan's shoulders from behind...
Zhang Yan felt much better now.
…
These two rounds of artillery fire came down.
The people on the shore kept cheering.
But the civil and military officials changed their colors in shock!
Many people were so scared that their lips were blue and their faces were pale!
"It's like the earth is falling apart! It's terrible!"
"Yes, no one can stop this power!"
"When the Japanese slaves invaded our waters, how could the Japanese slaves dare if we had this Zhenyuan ship!"
"When we have the Zhenyuan ship to assist Goryeo, this one ship is enough!"
"The red-haired man invaded our waters in the second year of Tianqi! He destroyed 80 Chinese sailing ships, captured more than 80 Chinese, and seized more than 60 guns! He entered Gulangyu Island in Xiamen, burned, killed and looted! The following year, with the strong support of His Majesty, Break the red hair!
If there had been the Zhenyuan ship at that time, our country, China, would not have been humiliated by the red-haired people, and our people would not have been killed countless times! "
"Yes! The hateful red-haired people did not leave after the defeat. Instead, they have occupied Dongfan for more than two years! I will ask the empress to send troops and let the Zhenyuan ship destroy the red-haired people in one fell swoop and regain Dongfan in one fell swoop!" ( A certain crab is so powerful that it will be called Dongfan from now on)
…
All the ministers were talking happily!
How much I disliked it just now, now I love it so much!
The Zhenyuan ship tested its speed in the river. After waiting for all aspects, it slowed down and slowly sailed into the dock and docked!
Zhang Yan led hundreds of officials and others off the boat.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty! Long live your Majesty! Long live the empress! Long live the virtuous minister!"
thousands of people shouted in unison.
All the officials also congratulated in unison!
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded, ending the launching ceremony.
Zhang Yan was banished to the imperial court and returned to the palace.
All the officials also left.
Huang Xiao specifically asked Zuo Guangdou to stay in Dahuang Village temporarily.
The time and location of the training class have also been decided.
After Huang Xiao, Song Yingxing, and Wang Zheng discussed it again, they also returned to Dahuang Village.
Huang Xiao's arrangement is to build three Zhenyuan-class ships first, and then supplement them with small-tonnage gunboats and supply ships. First, build a fleet!
With three battleships like this, Huang Xiao can say without bragging that they can defeat invincible opponents in the world!
Thousands of people returned to Dahuang Village happily. News about the launch of the battleship also spread throughout Dahuang Village, and the village was filled with a festive atmosphere.
Compared to other people, the people of Dahuang Village know much more about the significance of battleships!
Today's shelling is another wake-up call for the ministers!
That means now the Queen and Huang Xiao have another big killer in their hands!
When the officials left, they were very respectful to Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan!
Li Zicheng, Sun Chengzong and other ten people were also shocked and numb!
Everyone has their own special arrangements, let’s not mention them for now.
"Master, the meal is ready, I will serve it for you!"
Back at the house, Yueniang immediately went to the kitchen when she saw him.
Soon the food was all on the table.
Yueniang asked: "Why are you leaving in such a hurry? You don't want to stay and have dinner before going back!"
Huang Xiao knew that Zhang Yan left because she felt ashamed and embarrassed!
It'll be fine tomorrow.
"Your Majesty, I'm tired. Let's go back first. Yue'er, let's eat together!"
Yueniang sat down with her, added food to Huang Xiao, and asked: "Will so many people come to test the aircraft tomorrow?"
