Conservative estimate...

A black and gold warship must be eliminated unless it is too old in performance.

Otherwise, it is within the natural environment.

A colorful battleship can last at least three thousand years!

Moreover, even if the technology of the colorful warship is outdated.

In fact, you can also drive back to the shipyard, upgrade it, add updated components, and upgrade it to a more advanced new battleship that conforms to the trend of the times.

For the long-term consideration...

Zhu Hengyu has issued an order to Ice Demon Heavy Industry.

The colorful battleship must be redesigned.

Integrate and modularize each area, functional area, and equipment.

Once it needs to be updated in the future, or upgraded, the old equipment will be directly removed and the new equipment will be replaced, and the entire upgrade process can be completed.

In this way, these colorful warships will not be completely eliminated even if they have been used for three thousand years.

It is worth mentioning that the lifespan of the ironclad ship is only one hundred years.

In fact, the focus is not on iron armor, but on the wooden hull covered under the iron armor, which is soaked in damp sea water all year round.

After hundreds of years, it is difficult to maintain sufficient intensity.

Even after special treatment, this is still the case.

Although a wooden boat has a theoretical life span of a hundred years.

However, for warships, there are few battleships that can last for a hundred years.

Warships are not merchant ships.

When fighting, battleships often accelerate, slow down, and turn violently.

During the entire process, you will be constantly bombarded by stone bombs or even impacted by other warships.

The wooden keel of a warship is difficult to maintain sufficient strength and toughness for a long time, and frequently under such impacts.

Not to mention a hundred years, it is already solid if it can last for seventy or eighty years.

But steel warships are different.

Steel has enough strength to fight against waves and the impact of stone bombs.

Even when it is hit by other warships, its main structure will not be easily distorted and deformed.

If it hits just a wooden warship, it will be even more devastating.

The body of the warship and the keel will not be distorted at all.

Iron warships are only afraid of steel warships.

As for those wooden warships, even if they are worn with iron armor, they are still useless.

In the words of Eighteen Engineers of Ice Magic Heavy Industry.

In front of the steel warship, the so-called iron armored ship is just a bigger toy.

From a certain perspective, wooden warships are actually more suitable for offshore fishing and are not suitable for warships.

Especially when sailing in the ocean, wooden warships have very poor ability to resist waves.

Many times...

What killed those naval soldiers was not actually the enemy.

It is a hurricane and huge wave in the depths of the sea.

The strength of wooden warships is ultimately limited.

Once you encounter a super hurricane or huge wave, you can easily be broken or even beaten.

And the steel warships have no problem at all.

Especially the steel giant ships with a length of more than 300 meters can almost ignore any wind and waves.

Under Zhu Hengyu's suggestion, the steel warships built regarded hurricanes as nothing.

Once a hurricane blew on the sea surface, the steel warship would just shut down the top of the carapace and dive into the seabed.

No matter how stormy the sea is, the deep water is still calm and unremitting.

Moreover, even if it stays on the sea, the so-called storm will overturn the warship at most, but you can't break the steel warship, let alone crush it.

therefore……

For Zhu Hengyu, being able to use the steel warship for more than three thousand years is his irreplaceable choice.

The core reason why Zhu Hengyu cooperated with the Demon Bull Clan has actually been hidden is that he has to use the foundation of the Demon Bull Clan to build his own steel warship.

All steel warships need are precious metals.

Whether it is platinum or black gold, that is not something Zhu Hengyu can do.

If Zhu Hengyu hadn't been lucky enough to find a black gold mine in the mine in the waters of Blood Sheep Island.

I'm afraid he can't even build the ten black and gold warships that are now.

With the foundation of Ice Demon Heavy Industry, it has accumulated tens of millions of years, but it has only accumulated the materials for building a small platinum warship and a giant black gold warship.

If even Ice Demon Heavy Industry has not obtained too many precious metals, Zhu Hengyu would not have to think about it.

If we do not cooperate with the Demon Bull Clan and do not find any way to let the Demon Bull Clan open up metal resource trading to Zhu Hengyu.

Even if the entire Demon Sheep Clan Army fully supports Zhu Hengyu, it will be useless.

The mining ability of the Demon Sheep clan is very ordinary.

There are very few metal ores accumulated.

The most important thing is that the metal consumed by the three thousand large shipyards of the Demon Sheep clan is already an astronomical figure.

There are no extra resources to allocate them to Zhu Hengyu!

For the Demon Sheep clan, metal is the most scarce strategic resource.

For the powerful and powerful people of the Demon Sheep clan, metal is the core interest and cannot be coveted.

If Zhu Hengyu dared to show a little covetousness, he would probably become the public enemy of all the powerful.

With Zhu Hengyu's current background, he was directly swept out.

I'll definitely be swept out...

Don’t think that the Demon Sheep Clan Army will be selfless.

Once core interests are involved, no matter who you are, you will be boycotted.

Didn’t the Liu family, who was unscrupulous in cheating Zhu Hengyu?

If it weren't for this, how could Zhu Hengyu and his army be trapped in Yangjiao Island and Yangjiao City?

If Zhu Hengyu hadn't been a little skilled.

Zhu Hengyu's corpse is probably already cold.

Although the head of the Liu family was temporarily whipped to Leng Yamen, it seemed that the future was dim and there was no hope.

In fact, as long as you cool for a while, everything will eventually pass.

No one will mention this matter again.

After completely forgetting something, he still has the opportunity to rise.

Although last time, he designed to frame Zhu Hengyu and angered the bigwigs in the military headquarters, the old saying goes well, there is no eternal enemy, only eternal interests.

Therefore, Liu Feng still has the opportunity to rise again.

Liu Feng was just a demon general, so he dared to target Zhu Hengyu so unscrupulously and fearlessly.

Moreover, even after he did everything, he was not punished too much.

If Zhu Hengyu hadn't taken the opportunity to take over the position of Demon General, and ruined the good things of the bosses of the Demon Sheep Clan's military headquarters.

Liu Feng is likely to be only verbal criticism.

He will not be transferred to the Leng Yamen and will be idle.

Just imagine...

A demon handsome man could say such unscrupulous words.

So what about the devil kings of those kings of a country?

They really touched their core, and they didn't buy the face of the Demon King.

Basically, as long as it is not a serious crime to betray the Demon Sheep clan or betray the Demon clan.

There is no way to deal with the Demon King's military law.
