"This...is this a steamship?" Li Rongrong covered her mouth in surprise. Although she had heard Fusu mention it before, she was still deeply moved when she saw it with her own eyes.
On the deck of the ship, craftsmen were busy shuttling back and forth, some were debugging precision instruments, some were checking the huge steam engine. Everything was in order, full of the atmosphere of modern industry.
"Yes, Rongrong, this is our steamship." Fusu took her hand and stepped onto the wooden bridge leading to the ship.
As they walked, the wooden planks beneath their feet trembled slightly, as if they were also excited about the upcoming journey.
As soon as she boarded the ship, Li Rongrong was immediately attracted by the scene before her.
The interior design of the ship retains the elegance of ancient ships while incorporating elements of modern technology.
In the spacious and bright cockpit, various instrument panels are arranged in an orderly manner. In the center is a huge nautical chart, on which fine lines are used to outline the territory of the Qin Dynasty and the unknown distance.
In a corner of the cockpit, a compass improved by modern technology stands quietly, guiding the direction, as if it is the eyes of Daqin exploring the world.
"Look here, Rongrong."
Fusu took her to the heart of the ship - the steam engine room.
...
...
Here, the huge steam engine roars, and countless gears and connecting rods rotate rapidly under the push of steam, converting thermal energy into mechanical energy and driving the entire ship forward.
Li Rongrong noticed that among these complex mechanical structures, there were several particularly conspicuous parts, which were made of special materials they brought back from modern times. They not only improved the efficiency of the steam engine, but also greatly extended its service life.
"We brought these parts back from the modern era. After being skillfully modified by Mohist and Gongshu, they have been perfectly integrated into this ship," Fusu explained. "They make our steamship more advanced and more reliable than any ancient ship."
Li Rongrong looked at these parts carefully, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
These fragments from the future are not only a symbol of the Qin Dynasty's technological progress, but also a testimony to their joint efforts to change history.
She gently stroked the cold metal surface, shocked beyond words.
Isn’t Fusu too powerful?
Does he really not have some cheat system or something like that?
It was amazing that they were able to find so many talented people even though she only provided theoretical and technical guidance.
We really can’t underestimate our ancestors!
"Fusu, this is too amazing!"
Li Rongrong sincerely praised, "With these steamships, Daqin's navy will be invincible, and our expansion plan will be more successful."
Fusu smiled and nodded, his eyes flashing with infinite longing for the future.
"Yes, Rongrong. With these steamships, we can not only conquer that insect-like island faster, but also explore farther seas and plant the flag of the Qin Dynasty in every corner of the world."
The two walked out of the steam engine room and onto the deck. The sea breeze gently blew on their faces, bringing a slight coolness, but also making people feel relaxed and happy.
Li Rongrong stood at the bow, looking at the vast sea in the distance, her heart filled with lofty ambitions.
"Fusu, tell me, can we really change history and make Qin the most powerful country in the world?"
There was a hint of uncertainty in Li Rongrong's voice, but more of it was determination and expectation.
"Of course, Rongrong." Fusu held her hand tightly, his eyes firm, "As long as we work together, nothing is impossible. The future of Daqin is in our hands."
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the sea, making the waves sparkle, as if cheering for the young couple.
In the days that followed, Fusu and Li Rongrong continued to promote Daqin's technological progress and military expansion.
After applying to Qin Shi Huang, they used the soldiers who originally defended the city in Longchuan County to train the first batch of navy.
Making full preparations for the coming war.
Time flies. Jingzi can return to the modern world once every six months. Just after Li Rongrong and Fusu stayed in the modern world for about ten days, they returned to Daqin again.
The navy has almost finished training.
Even Qin Shihuang came to the seaside in person to command the battle after hearing it.
Following an order from Qin Shi Huang, the fleet of Qin's steamships, like a giant steel dragon, broke through the waves on the sea, heading directly for the island that Fusu likened to a "bug".
The sea breeze was howling, the flags were fluttering, and the morale of the Qin warriors was high, their hearts filled with desire for victory.
"I have no clothes, but I will share them with you!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The trained Qin soldiers were in high spirits and unstoppable.
Of course, although the Army Fleet had undergone training, it also encountered many challenges during the voyage.
Sometimes, strong winds and huge waves would suddenly come and try to block their way, but the steamship, with its powerful power and stable structure, was always able to overcome the danger and continue to move forward.
At this time, the soldiers would be grateful to the immortals for gifting them the steamship, and at the same time they would constantly be thankful that the Qin Dynasty had His Majesty and Prince Fusu.
Sometimes, they would encounter attacks by pirates.
During the Qin Dynasty, each island was occupied by a small wooden boat, which was like the difference between an ant and an elephant compared to the Qin Dynasty's giant steel ships.
These pirates were simply vulnerable in front of the Qin fleet.
Relying on advanced weapons and strict discipline, the Qin warriors quickly defeated the pirates and ensured the safety of the voyage.
During the voyage, Fusu and Li Rongrong always kept a close eye on the progress of the war.
They used modern communication equipment to maintain close contact with the fleet and adjust strategies and tactics at any time.
At the same time, they continued to study the enemy's situation and developed detailed combat plans.
Finally, the fleet arrived at the sea area near the island. On the island, there were still some islanders who ate raw meat and drank blood.
They did not anticipate the arrival of the Qin fleet.
All he could do was foolishly shout: "Monster, monster!"
What's worse, some even offered human heads as sacrifices in an attempt to pray for their god, the Yamata-no-Orochi, to come.
Li Rongrong was dismissive of this. After all, how could such legendary things possibly exist?
However, what she didn't expect was that they actually found an anaconda by some unknown means.
It’s totally wrong. It’s just a relatively large python, but it was actually regarded as a god.
This is of no use at all.
The battle has begun.
The Qin fleet quickly launched an offensive, with cannons on steamships roaring and firing deadly shells at the enemies on the island.
The shells exploded on the enemy's positions, creating a sea of fire and smoke.
The first one to be blown up was the anaconda.
The anaconda sensed danger and actually swallowed the person next to it in an attempt to escape from the island.
The Qin warriors did not use bombs this time, but directly used the improved version of the Qin crossbow to kill the jumping anaconda.
At the same time, the Qin warriors also boarded small boats, bravely landed on the island, and quickly occupied it.
It was under such circumstances that the islanders, who only knew how to eat raw meat and drink blood, actually started killing each other.
Fusu and Li Rongrong stood on the deck of the flagship and witnessed this victorious battle with their own eyes.
The obsession in my heart was finally resolved.
After the battle, the Qin fleet established a base on the island and began to work on further expansion.
