Chapter 4157 (1/2)
A conservative estimate
A black gold warship, unless it is too old in performance, must be eliminated.
Otherwise, in the natural environment.
A colorful warship can last at least 3000 years!
Moreover, the technology of multicolored warships is outdated.
In fact, you can also go back to the shipyard to upgrade it, add updated components, and upgrade it to a more advanced and new battleship in line with the trend of the times.
In the long run
Zhu Hengyu has given orders to ice demon heavy industry.
We have to redesign the colorful warships.
All areas, functional areas and equipment are integrated and modularized.
Once it needs to be updated or upgraded in the future, the whole upgrade process can be completed by directly removing the old equipment and replacing it with a new one.
In this way, these colorful warships, even if they have been used for 3000 years, will not be completely eliminated.
It is worth mentioning that the life span of armored ships is only 100 years.
In fact, the focus is not on the armor, but on the wooden hull covered under the armor, which is immersed in the humid sea water all year round.
After hundreds of years, it's hard to maintain enough intensity.
Even after special treatment, it is still the case.
A wooden ship, though theoretically, has a life span of 100 years.
But for warships, there are few battleships that have been used for 100 years.
Warships are not merchant ships.
Battleships often accelerate, decelerate and turn violently in battle.
In the whole process, they will be bombarded by stone bombs and even by other warships.
The wooden keel of a warship is difficult to maintain for a long time. Under such impact, it can still maintain sufficient strength and toughness.
Let alone a hundred years. If you can use it for seventy or eighty years, you will be considered as solid.
Steel warships are different.
Steel has enough strength to resist the waves, to resist the impact of stone bombs.
Even when it is hit by other warships, its main structure will not be distorted easily.
If the impact is just a wooden warship, it is even more devastating.
There will be no distortion in the hull and keel.
Steel warships, only fear steel warships.
As for the wooden warships, they were useless even in their armor.
In the words of 18 engineers of ice magic heavy industry.
In front of the steel warship, the so-called armored ship is just a bigger toy.
From a certain point of view, wooden warships are more suitable for offshore fishing than for warships.
Especially when sailing in the ocean, the ability of wooden warships to resist waves is very poor.
A lot of times
It was not the enemy who killed those navy soldiers.
It's a hurricane, a huge wave, deep in the ocean.
The strength of wooden warships, after all, is limited.
Once encountering a super hurricane or a huge wave, it is easy to be broken and even smashed.
And steel warships, there is no such problem.
In particular, the steel ship with a length of more than 300 meters can almost ignore any wind and wave.
Under the guidance of Zhu Hengyu, the steel warships built by him regarded the hurricane as nothing.
Once there is a hurricane on the sea, the steel warship will just close its top shell and dive into the sea floor.
Even if the sea surface how rough, but the depth of the water, it is still calm, waves can not rise.
What's more, even if they stay on the sea, the so-called stormy waves will overturn the warships at most, but they will never break the steel warships, let alone smash them.
So
For Zhu Hengyu, the steel warship that can be used for more than 3000 years is his irreplaceable choice.
In fact, the core reason why Zhu Hengyu cooperates with the magic cow clan is that he wants to build his own steel warship with the help of the inside information of the magic cow clan.
Steel warships, all they need are precious metals.
Whether it is platinum or black gold, it is not Zhu Hengyu can get.
If Zhu Hengyu was not lucky enough to find a black gold mine in a mine in the sea area of xueyang island.
