Chapter 186 Skye, Who Is Full Of Tea, Begins War On The Eastern Continent 【1/5 For Automatic Subscri
"The Allies have created an ironclad ship in the inland river in the south of the Kingdom of Al!"
When Ezio said such words.
Not only Ulysses, but even Sofia, who was still watching the artillery all the time, came over at this moment.
Ezio continued.
"They disassembled and modified the steam engine we exported to some merchants, and created a very primitive steam-powered ironclad ship. They..."
Hearing this, Ulysses actually has no interest in listening to the lower levels.
If you are a person who does not know how to do it, you may think that a steam-powered iron-clad ship, with a steam engine, will be successful if it is covered with iron armor.
But if it were that simple, it wouldn't represent a naval age in Ulysses' previous life.
The information Ezio has now is relatively limited, but Ulysses is sure that the so-called steam-powered ironclad ship is completely a bunch of rubbish that is patchwork and full of loopholes.
And just like Ulysses thought.
Kingdom of Al
Lake Seychelles, as the largest inland river in the Kingdom of Al, not only has sufficient water depth, but also has a channel leading to the ocean.
With the official establishment of the Allied Powers, the United Navy was destroyed, and sea navigation was completely restricted.
The inland shipyard here in the Kingdom of Al has become the last hope of the entire Confederate navy.
"Boom..."
Billowing thick smoke spewed out from the chimney, and in the tense expectation of everyone, suddenly, a loud sound erupted.
"Boom!"
Billowing black smoke erupted from the middle of the entire ironclad ship, and the flames filled the room, accompanied by screams of horror.
"Ah! The boiler exploded!"
"Help me quickly! Come on, put out the fire!"
Everyone's complexion changed, and the ships that had been prepared around them leaned over one after another, busy in all kinds of ways to rescue the crew members on board.
"Mr. Hudson, why on earth is this? Why did it explode?!"
A navy general was full of expectations but turned into nothing, with an angry look on his face at the moment.
However, the chief designer of the ironclad warship of the Confederate States known as Hudson is looking bitter at the moment.
"General, there is nothing we can do about it. The steam engine used in the factory itself is different from the steam engine used by the Prouker Empire on warships and trains. The low-pressure steam engine in the factory is simply not enough to drive such a terrifying big guy." .”
"We need to find a way to get a high-pressure steam engine from the Prouker Empire, or research it ourselves..."
"Then study it!" the general said immediately.
Now, Hudson really didn't know what to say.
Talking about professional issues with non-professional people is quite absurd in itself.
"General, the high-pressure steam engine itself is not something that can be built just because it is made. There are problems with its materials and technology. Not to mention anything else, the steel of the boiler itself is seriously substandard in our domestic production, which is why the furnace is fried.
"Also, our coal processing technology is not enough, the quality of the coal itself is also a big problem, and the combustion rate is not high.
"Also, the steel of our own iron-clad ships is not up to standard, and the ramming horn collides with the iron-clad ships of the Prouker Empire, so we can't get any bargain at all."
"and also………"
Seeing Hudson talking endlessly, complaining about one problem after another, the general of the Union Navy finally couldn't take it anymore, and left immediately with a headache.
White Jade Palace.
After Ulysses analyzed the alliance's naval ironclad construction plan, Sofia, who was still a little anxious, finally calmed down at this moment.
However, then she frowned with some resentment.
"So when will you be able to sell us the ironclad ship? Your more powerful battleship hasn't been built yet?"
Ulysses leaned back in his chair, snorted softly, and didn't make any pointless denials about the fact that the Empire was secretly building more powerful warships.
Just then, Helen Ti knocked on the door and walked in.
"Father of the nation, Dean Yinle is here."
Ulysses nodded, and soon the Yule Jotun whom he had summoned came in, but what made him a little puzzled was that behind Ulysses came a beautiful blonde woman with a slim figure.
After seeing Ulysses, the girl immediately showed a bright and charming smile full of admiration.
Along with Yule, he bowed slightly to Ulysses.
So Fia, who was sitting next to Ulysses' desk, raised an eyebrow at Ulysses with a half-smile, and the light in her eyes didn't know what it meant.
He stood up and walked directly outside.
"Since you are busy here, I will also go to the major universities to see the foreign students."
After Suo Fia left, Ulysses looked at the girl behind Yule suspiciously, and Ulysses hastily introduced apologetically.
"Father of the nation, this is my daughter, Skye Jotun, I heard that you summoned me, Father of the nation, crying and begging for me to take her with me. My wife passed away early, just such a daughter, I... "
Hearing this, Ulysses didn't say much, and waved his hand to signal the other party not to be nervous.
"Mr. Yule, you are about to go to Volgograd County to establish the Volgograd Art University, and there is just one thing that needs to be done before you leave.
Ule rubbed his hands flattered, he didn't expect that Ulysses could still call him a teacher, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.
And Skye, who was behind him, looked at his nominal senior brother with more and more affection in his eyes.
Ulysses didn't notice this when he looked down to get something from the desk drawer.
However, Helen Ti, who was also in the office, saw Skye's eyes at this moment.
For such a situation, there is no surprise.
And who can refuse, a man like Ulysses?
Ulysses took out a thick document and pushed it in front of Ulysses.
"Mr. Yule, you should have watched "Les Miserables". I want to adapt it into a musical recently. You will be in charge of this matter, and it will be the first task of the Volgograd Art University in the future. "
Yule took the file, and as soon as he opened it, he saw that there were songs and lyrics that had been composed one after another.
With his musical literacy, after just watching it for a while, he can feel the strong artistic value contained in it.
The original apprehension turned into excitement at this moment. He held the document and flipped through it page by page.
Seeing this, Helenti took the place directly to a meeting room next to the office, but Skye did not leave with the other party.
"Well, Miss Skye, what do you do?"
Ulysses looked at the girl standing in front of him, and asked in confusion.
Skye was obviously at a loss at the moment, but he still forced a smile on his calm face.
She glanced nervously at the closed door behind her.
"Miss Helenty is really capable. Unlike me, I always have problems with singing, and I can't do anything well."
""#......."
He looked at Skye speechlessly, because of the extreme tension, his language function was disordered, and Skye began to talk teasingly.
Naturally, he can see the affection in the eyes of the other party, but he is not a person who just accepts one when he comes.
Otherwise, in the two palaces of White Jade Palace and Rotis Palace, I don't know how many maids with the same beautiful appearance.
Skye was also aware of his nonsense, facing Ulysses' piercing eyes, his brain was completely confused for a moment.
I want to say something, but I can't say it at all, and I will cry because of my uselessness.
"Miss Skye's voice is very nice, and I think you must sing very well."
Ulysses put down the pen in his hand, looked at this obviously immature girl, and comforted him with words, after all, the father of the other party treated his predecessor "it was really good.
It is also worthy of respect.
When Skye heard this, his pale face finally looked better.
Ulysses smiled slightly: "The character of Fantine has many stories to tell, and she is also an important female character in my book. When the musical is ready, I will definitely go to watch it in person."
"Miss Skye's image and skills can actually give her a try."
At this moment, Skye only felt that she was recognized by Ulysses, so that Ulysses, with her back to the window and bathed in sunlight (Qian Li's), even had a sense of sacredness in her eyes.
Just when Skye was about to say something, the office door was pushed open again.
Helen came in: "Miss Skye, your father is calling for you."
He bowed reluctantly to Ulysses, turned his head three times on the way from the desk to the door.
After Skye left, Helendi said to Ulysses in a very joking manner.
"It seems that Miss Skye can't refuse the charm of the father of the country, but I don't know how Master Yule will put it off.
Ulysses rolled his eyes speechlessly.
St. Eastern Continental Pine.
When the envoy from the Theocracy returned to the holy capital with Zelio's words.
Sure enough, it immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the high-level.
Pope Christian and the top officials of the Holy See immediately issued an order to seize and confiscate the caravans and cheap cloth of the Kiljaron Kingdom.
And a large number of businessmen from the Kiljalong Kingdom were expelled.
This move immediately drew strong anger from Zelio's side.
May 17, 1801.
When a declaration of war from the Kiljalong Kingdom was sent to the Holy Kingdom of Saint Antines.
The two countries in the eastern part of the Holy East Continent have officially entered a state of war.
