Chapter 740: Arrival at the Dock
The two patrol boats sailed towards the Yaoguo port one after the other. The closer they got to the port, the more fishing boats they encountered. Many fishermen and navy soldiers stared curiously and horrified at the two patrol boats as they cut through the waves. At the dock, Rubik's Cube suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to say hello according to human diplomatic conventions...
Shore pier.
On the city wall near the pier, groups of soldiers quickly climbed onto the city wall with weapons in hand. Heavy crossbows and trebuchets were adjusted. Two speedboats were released from the pier and went straight to the patrol boat where the Rubik's Cube was located.
"Slow down and stay alert."
The robots received the order and loaded their firearms with a loud clatter. The patrol boat's intelligent robot aimed its naval gun at the heavy crossbow on the shore. The near-defense system locked the trebuchet. It's always good to be careful. If these fools accidentally fired with shaking hands, After wondering what to do, after slowing down, two patrol boats with a displacement of 1,000 tons entered the dock side by side and approached.
"Who's in front of you? I'm Lu Sihai, the commander-in-chief of Yao King City's dock! Please tell me your identity!"
On one of the speedboats, which was not much bigger than a coffin in Rubik's opinion, a general in light armor shouted at the patrol boat. Rubik's Cube was sure that the other party was definitely a military minion, and those guard generals would definitely not be so bold to come alone. examine.
Waving his hand, the officer's combat robot stepped forward and stood on the bow of the ship.
"We are the Mechanical Empire's friendly envoy! We have come to Yao Kingdom to discuss important matters! Please inform us!" the battle robot shouted loudly, the voice much louder than that of the general soldier.
The commander waved, and the two small wooden boats stopped, and the two patrol boats also stopped in front of the wooden boats.
The commander's eyes narrowed after taking a closer look at the patrol boat. Ironclad ship? Two ironclad ships! Although the appearance is very strange, the commander recognized the two patrol boats as ironclads at a glance, and the ironclads seemed to be much larger than those in the impression. There were a group of weirdos in black clothes standing on the boats, and there was a pipe above the bow of the ironclads. As for the ironclads, The mechanical empire mentioned by the battle robot made the general feel confused.
The commander-in-chief waved the flag in his hand at the wall of the rear pier, meaning that the other party was not simple and should not act rashly.
He was just a general soldier. Rubik's Cube was too lazy to go out and negotiate. He simply lay on the sofa with Wang Ziyan in his arms and watched soap operas. If he had known better, he would have said hello in advance.
After some negotiation with the battle robots, the commander agreed to dock at the dock. Although he didn’t know what country the Mechanical Empire was, he definitely couldn’t fake this armored ship. It was a standard equipment that only the empire could have. If they really came to attack, they wouldn’t send just these two. After some thought, the commander decided to let the two patrol boats dock.
The combat robot in charge of the negotiation saw that the commander was so interested in the patrol boat and simply invited him to board the boat and dock together. The commander asked for it, so he lowered the gangway, and the commander led two soldiers to climb onto the patrol boat.
"Tsk tsk~ It's really an armored ship~"
The commander stretched out his hand and knocked twice on the deck. The clanging sound was definitely made of steel. The commander didn't care about the embarrassment and even said it was incredible. The ironclad ships he had seen before were only covered with a thin layer of iron around the hull. Install an iron bumper in the front, look at it! The deck of the ship is full of steel! My dear...
Two large ironclad ships arrived at the Yaoguo pier, and the news flew into the palace as fast as wings.
In the king's study, the princess who was reviewing the memorial was startled.
"What did you say? Two large ironclad ships came to our dock? Mechanical Empire Friendship Envoy? Are they confirmed to be two ironclad ships?" Princess Junru almost shouted this sentence. You must know that ordinary countries cannot afford to equip ironclad ships. Even if ordinary countries install a thin layer of iron on their ships, they will fail due to various problems, such as the corrosiveness of seawater, the stability of installation, and various problems. The ironclad ship is a symbol of the navy of a great power, and even the nearby Yun Kingdom or Chehe Kingdom do not have it.
"The Admiral has just sent back the news that they are indeed two armored ships with more than thirty people on board. Moreover, the armored ships are more powerful than the armored ships of other navies. It is said that the decks are made of steel."
An armored general reported what had happened on the dock, but he doubted the statement that the decks were made of steel.
"Hurry up and prepare your horses! I'm going to the dock to greet you in person!"
Princess Junru had to go to greet her in person. A country that could equip ironclad ships was definitely not a small country. She had never heard of the Mechanical Empire. As long as she dared to use the word empire and had ironclad ships, Princess Junru believed that the other party definitely had the strength of the empire, no matter whether the other party was or not. Friendship must be welcomed. The Yao Kingdom can no longer afford to offend any country. The current Yao Kingdom can be said to be in a precarious position surrounded by great powers. The Yao Kingdom has long been regarded as fish on the chopping block. Maybe this mechanical empire has some purpose, it doesn’t matter. No matter how much you pay, you can save the Yao Kingdom.
Led a hundred guards on horseback and rushed out of the palace quickly. Princess Junru and her party went straight to the dock.
One advantage of coastal countries is that after zombies are overrun, the country's capital is habitually relocated to coastal cities. Princess Junru was speeding along the streets and soon saw two strange large ships docked at the pier. They had no masts or sails. There are not even trebuchets and heavy crossbows. From a distance, it is indeed made of steel as the intelligence said, but Princess Junru still can't believe that not only the deck of a ship but also the superstructure is made of steel. Also, what are the weapons? ? Are you going to sail to ram and sink other people's warships?
pier.
The Rubik's Cube and the mechanical soldiers just stood on the dock chatting with the generals. Wang Ziyan was not used to being in public and sat in the cabin watching TV.
Clothes make the man, and horses make the saddle. In order to show the strength of his empire, Mofang made a luxurious general uniform. The new mecha with a golden cape is absolutely cool. Thanks to this luxurious suit, the generals on the dock are respectful to Mofang and even bow and nod. Looking at the light armor on them, the comparison is like the difference between a beggar and a rich second generation. Regardless of whether the other party is an empire or not, just because of the ironclad ship and this cool suit, they should be treated with courtesy.
The polite admiral saw the princess coming to greet him in person from a distance, and quickly waved to the sailors to stand up.
"The princess is here!"
Many sailors saluted, and Princess Junru, who was riding a white horse, slowed down and waved to stand up. Mofang took this opportunity to take a closer look at Princess Junru.
I have to say that as long as she is a princess, there will be no problem with her appearance. After all, kings and emperors are able to marry a lot of beautiful wives, and as the genes are improved from generation to generation, there are few ugly children. She wears a plain white gauze dress on a light pink long skirt, and a light blue emerald gauze on her body. Her phoenix eyes are naturally charming but also awe-inspiring, her skin is icy and her expression is indifferent. She is definitely a beauty of her generation.
