Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

However, an entire brigade of guards also brought certain pressure to the principality.

At least several thousand new soldiers could not appear out of thin air, and the next cycle would take at least three months.

This means Sharif has to wait a few more months.

For him personally, he did not make a fuss after knowing the news.

Sharif naturally understood the reason why Derek made this decision.

This kind of care comes from his status, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad.

But for him, there are many opportunities, so there is no need to rush.

Of course, such a big move by the Northern Principality cannot be concealed.

Originally, the New World was no longer a secret, especially in places with developed maritime trade, where vague rumors had long been spread.

After all, there must be a source for the influx of a large amount of gold, silver and resources in the market.

If it were not for the closed nature of feudal society, it would have been impossible to conceal it long ago.

This time, it was not just the Northern Principality that made a move.

The Southern Noble Alliance, which had suffered a direct attack, had stopped acting.

They collected a large amount of strategic materials on the market and invited craftsmen.

Ships of weapons and soldiers were directly shipped to the New World.

Although no large gold and silver mines have been discovered in the past two years, the resources of the New World are indeed rich. Several small gold and silver mines and a ruby ​​mine have made them rich.

The nobles could not bear to see the benefits they had obtained being taken away by the white-skinned people, and they might even lose more.

According to the words of Count Bergen: "If we can't beat the Yankees in the north, will we be bullied by the white-skinned people?

Isn't it just guns and cannons? We have them in the south."

The arrogance of the nobles made them unable to accept the fact that they were bullied by the white-skinned people.

Otherwise, wouldn't they be reduced to bullying black slaves in the future?

When the nobles worked together, the power of the explosion was considerable.

...

For the ocean, ships are the most important thing.

Human beings cannot conquer the ocean without huge ships.

The limit of wooden sailing ships is below 1,000 meters, and most of them can't even reach half of this data.

But this is not the limit of ships, but the limit of wooden sailing ships.

Outside the nameless island, a brand new ironclad ship is sailing.

Around it, the largest sailing ship is also much smaller.

In terms of speed, wooden sailboats are two to three knots slower than the maximum speed under tailwind.

After a series of tests, the ironclad ship returned home smoothly.

A long chimney, emitting black smoke.

Following the sea breeze, it floated to the shore.

"What a tempting smell, this is the breath of the new era, a powerful breath."

The craftsmen danced and cheered for the power of the ironclad ship.

A ship covered with iron armor, its appearance is a subversion of history.

There has never been such a ship, this is the pinnacle of ships.

Greater density, faster speed, stronger attack power, and even stronger defense.

It is the strongest warship of this era.

Everyone is full of confidence in it. From the beginning of its appearance, it represents the power to sweep this era.

"The maximum speed is 20 knots, and the mil is 1,020. After the weapons are installed, there may be some impact, but the difference will not be too big."

"It can be improved. I can feel the room for improvement. It is different from the previous ships."

"Thank you steam engine group, thank you for the improvements you have made. I hope that a better heart can be installed on this big guy."

The nameless island is as happy as the New Year. The ironclad ship project is the largest project on the island.

Steam engine group, ship group, artillery group, too many people have contributed to this project.

Even at the beginning, everyone thought it was wishful thinking.

How could an iron ship float on the sea?

After experiencing wooden steamships, ironclad steamships, and now steam ironclad ships.

Every step is difficult, especially the steam engine group, which is completely hand-made based on a concept.

The power system composed of multiple steam engines has become the heart of the ironclad ship.

Finally, unprecedented results were achieved.

And not only that, the success of the ironclad ship represents a series of technological advances.

After being free, these technologies can play a huge role in all aspects.

After the celebration, Philip sent someone to deliver good news to Derek.

At the same time, he hurried to make further improvements.

"The most powerful warship in the world should have all the best technologies."

The largest naval gun was installed, and the ship structure had to be adjusted.

Optimization in all aspects, and even a larger ironclad ship was built.

That is, the Northern Principality has enough money to do this kind of experiment.

It was midnight when Derek got the good news.

He did know about the ironclad ship project, and it can even be said that the project was initiated by him.

The purpose is also very simple, that is, to rely on a big project to promote technological progress.

For example, steam engines and steam-powered drills can make gun barrels and cannon barrels faster and better.

This alone can increase the manufacturing efficiency of guns and cannons by dozens of times, and the cost is reduced by half.

Not to mention large ironclad transport ships, the transportation advantages brought are huge.

At the beginning, he never thought that this project could succeed in a short time.

Originally, he thought that if he decomposed some technologies, he could get his money back.

Little did he know that these craftsmen would give him a huge surprise.

Perhaps he underestimated the power of the data panel, or perhaps he overestimated the difficulty of building an ironclad ship.

Anyway, the result now is success, so a lot of tenderness is no longer a problem.

"Let's go to Port Deegan overnight."

The excited Derek was preparing to leave overnight, but Tiona, who was woken up, looked like a madman.

"Derek, are you crazy? Have you ever thought about the impact of leaving so late?" Tiona leaned on the bed and gave advice: "No matter how excited you are now, just get some sleep. , we will set off again when the arrangements are made at dawn.”

As the lord of a principality, how can you do whatever you want?

Every move of the Duke and Duchess attracts everyone's attention and triggers a chain reaction.

If we really set out in the middle of the night, I'm afraid it will make people panic, and it will also be a blow to the prestige of the Duke's Palace.

Derek finally calmed down after hearing the reminder.

He also leaned on the bed and lit a cigarette.

He rarely smoked, even though nobles smoked tobacco leaves and cigars for a long time.

"Tiona, you don't understand. Soon...soon I will be able to wear the queen's crown for you."

Tiona stopped feeling sleepy when she heard this. She held the bed with one hand and approached Derek: "What on earth is an ironclad? Is it so powerful?"

"Of course, it's more powerful than you think. Even if God comes, you must kneel down in front of it." Derek said some rebellious words.
