Chapter 95 Buying a Boat

The afterglow of the sunset sprinkles from the west, dyeing the sea with blood red.▲∴

However, if you look carefully, you will find that the blood-red color on the nearby sea is not completely dyed by the sunset.

Among the broken wooden boards floating everywhere on the sea were mixed with corpses wearing gray and black clothes.

From these corpses, a pool of dazzling red blood flowed out, dyeing the color of the sea even more thrilling.

However, this miserable situation fell into Remito Russell's eyes, but it could not cause any thrill in his heart.

The eyes of the corpses floating on the sea and the surroundings were rapidly sinking due to severe damage. While bringing huge vortexes, they also brought the corpses to the huge sea boat in the deep sea to pass by. Russell couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

This is the seventeenth day of his leadership of the Third Fleet of the Candela Empire Navy and the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce to cooperate. The pirates he encountered today are the thirteenth batch of pirates they encountered in these seventeen days.

Like when they encountered the twelve pirates before, the Kandra Empire Navy fleet did not need to take action. When the traces of these pirates were discovered, the frigate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce immediately launched a fierce offensive, and defeated all of these pirate ships a thousand meters away.

From beginning to end, these poor pirates didn't even touch the side of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's frigate, and they were all knocked into the sea.

Except for some pirates who saw the opportunity, who took a small boat to escape from the battlefield first, none of the other pirates survived and all fell into the deep sea.

Waiting for their destiny, either fall into the mouth of a shark or drown directly.

Russell had no sympathy for these pirates. But every time he saw the fierce offensive of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce with his own eyes, he would always be unable to help but the veins on his forehead pounding.

If these pirates were replaced by the Kandra Empire Navy fleet, would the result be any different?

At first, Russell had imagined many ways to deal with the New Air Chamber of Commerce's frigate offensive.

For example, encircle one step ahead and do not give the New Air Chamber of Commerce frigate time to develop a range advantage.

For example, if you are seriously injured, you must approach the frigate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible, try your best to start close combat, and win by relying on the number of people.

For example...

However, after witnessing the situation of the frigate of the New Air Flight Chamber of Commerce bullying these pirates again and again these days, Russell gradually overturned all his ideas.

Now he was sure. Even if these pirates were replaced by the Kandra Empire Navy fleet, the result would not change.

The only difference is probably that the Candela Empire Navy will last longer than these pirates.

As for whether more people can escape, it depends on the mood of the Frigate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

After all, the terrifying frigates such as the New Air Chamber of Commerce's frigates sailed at sea faster than the Kandra Empire Navy Fleet and ordinary wooden sea ships such as the pirates. If they wanted to pursue it, there was no possibility of escape.

As for the frontal shock?

What a joke!

The extremely terrifying magic cannons of the Frigate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will completely defeat you if you can't even touch their side!

Moreover, with the super fast speed of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce frigate, it is a fantasy to encircle them!

So Russell and the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce operated for seventeen days and thought for seventeen days, but in the end they came up with a fact that he was very reluctant to admit but had to admit.

In his heart, the originally powerful and invincible Kandra Empire Navy fleet would probably have no power to fight back if he faced the enemy's frigate in the New Air Chamber of Commerce head-on.

Every time I think of the descriptions of the pirates' descriptions of the frigate of the New Air Chamber of Commerce in the sealed archives of the Navy Staff, Russell felt that the description was extremely appropriate.

This fleet is like coming from another world and has surpassed this era!

After turning around and ordering his subordinates to clean up the battlefield with the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, Russell signaled his seat to get closer to the flagship of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, and then took a small boat to board the flagship of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce.

Although the two sides have cooperated in name for half a month, this is the first time Russell has personally boarded the frigate of the New Air Chamber of Commerce.

When viewing from the perspective of the bystanders, they already felt that the frigate was extremely huge. After actually stepping on the deck of the frigate, Russell felt the huge difference between the frigate and the Kander Empire Navy Fleet.

The difference that makes him feel profound is that stepping on the deck of this frigate will make you feel particularly at ease, just like stepping on solid land, not like you can easily feel the bumps caused by the waves on those wooden sea boats.

The reason for this difference is of course because the frigate is almost made of steel, and its weight is far greater than that of a wooden sea ship, and of course it will appear more stable on the sea surface.

"Sir Leslie, can you tell me how much of the total weight of this ship is?" Russell suddenly asked after a few greetings with Leslie who came up.

Leslie was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and shook her head and said, "I don't have any accurate data. However, the set displacement of this ship when it left the factory is about 1,000 tons, and its net weight should be more than 600 tons."

"Six hundred tons!" Russell took a deep breath, and a shocked look on his face involuntarily.

The largest ship in the Kandra Empire naval fleet is the Thunder-class warship. According to manufacturing standards, the total weight of wood required is only less than one hundred tons.

This weight is less than one-sixth of this frigate!

Although the density of wood is certainly not comparable to that of steel, the gap is still extremely exaggerated.

So although the size of the Thunder-class warship does not seem much smaller than that of the frigate, even if we put aside the magic cannons and other military magic machinery equipped with terrifying attack power on the frigate, just by hitting the frigate head-on, the Thunder-class warship may not be able to withstand the slight collision of the frigate.

To compare... no. This is not qualified to compare at all!

Russell forced his shock down. He silently looked down at the solid deck under his feet. Then he looked up at the thick steel main city platform in the middle of the deck, and a question flashed through his mind.

If a frigate just like this consumes more than 600 tons of steel, then the frigate of the New Air Chamber of Commerce in front of him now has a total of twenty frigates.

If you count it, it would be an astonishing 12,000 tons of steel.

Not to mention that the steel used to build these frigates is obviously completely different from ordinary pig iron. Not only does it have extremely strong resistance to impact, corrosion and embroidery, Russell cannot imagine how it was cast even if it is only more than 12,000 tons of pig iron.

Although this frigate is made of steel plates connected and cast, how are these steel plates cast? How did the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce perfectly combine these steel plates together so that they are so tight that they are originally a whole?

Russell has been holding these questions in his heart for half a month. Now when he asks Leslie in person, he hopes to get an answer that he can understand.

However, Leslie smiled and shook her head.

"Sorry, Lord Russell, these things are secrets of our Chamber of Commerce, and I have nothing to tell you. And in fact, even if I want to tell you in violation of the Chamber of Commerce's regulations, I don't know what to say, because... I don't understand at all."

"Don't understand?" Russell frowned slightly, his expression slightly unhappy.

Leslie was unwilling to say that he could understand, after all, this may indeed involve the trade secrets of the New Air Chamber of Commerce.

But he said he didn't understand. This was simply a joke!

He is the commander of the New Air Flight Chamber of Commerce frigate, how could he know nothing about this ship?

"I really don't understand." Seeing Russell's unhappiness, Leslie explained with a smile. "The construction of this ship involves a lot of very professional knowledge of magic and mechanical knowledge, which I have never studied. All I know is how to use the ship, not how to make it."

Russell was silent for a moment, nodded, admitting that Leslie made sense.

Not to mention that this frigate with an extremely amazing technical content, even if it is a Thunderclass warship, he, the deputy chief of staff of the Navy's Staff, can almost be regarded as having no idea about its manufacturing.

However, he asked Leslie about this, and he didn't expect to get the answer directly from him.

After pondering for a while, Russell said to Leslie: "Mr. Leslie, through this cooperation, I have a deep understanding of the outstanding capabilities of your New Flight Chamber of Commerce frigates. I am very interested in these frigates and hope you can tell me President Xu, saying that our Kandera Empire Navy hopes to officially start cooperation with your New Flight Chamber of Commerce. We have many places to discuss these frigates."

Leslie smiled slightly: "Sir Russell, if you are interested in these frigates, I think President will be very happy to negotiate with you. But if you want to cooperate... I don't think it is necessary to be so troublesome."

"Oh? Lord Leslie, what are your opinions?" Russell was a little surprised.

"There is no question." Leslie waved his hand, and the smile on his face put a hint of cunning. "Since the Kandra Empire Navy fleet is interested in frigates, it's very simple. Just buy it directly from our Chamber of Commerce."

"Buy it directly?" Russell was stunned, with a very surprised expression. "Can you... your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce be willing to sell these powerful frigates directly?"

"Of course, we are in the chamber of talks. Someone is willing to buy our things, why can't we sell them?" Leslie shrugged and said with a relaxed look on his face.

Russell looked up and down at Leslie with a strange look on his face, and confirmed that he was not joking. Then he took a breath and asked carefully: "So Lord Leslie, your New Flying Chamber of Commerce priced this frigate... what is the approximate price?"

"Not expensive, no expensive." Leslie stretched out two fingers: "A ship of two million gold coins."

Russell's eyes suddenly turned black and he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Do you dare to be a little bit unintentional in this damn Xinfei Chamber of Commerce? (To be continued, please search for Piaotiansi, novels are better, updated and faster!
