For the navy uniform sent, he did not wear white or wear, Liu Yun himself was still wearing a Zhongshan suit, and gave the navy's colonel uniform to Jia Lian, and the rest of the crew became officers, the worst ones were non-commissioned officer uniforms, and even the flag of the river defense army was erected on the Cancer warship.

As soon as the sun came out the next day, under the leadership of Hu Jiansheng, the transport fleet headed for Chongqing, and as soon as it came out of Yichang, it was obvious that there was a solemn atmosphere, and the mountain walls on both sides of the river rose abruptly, and Liu Yun knew that he had entered Xiling Gorge, one of the Three Gorges.

Even if the sun has come out, the river is still foggy, the visibility is extremely low, and the speed of the ships is like a turtle crawling, without brain scanning, Liu Yun also estimated that the speed of the fleet will not exceed 8 knots, but fortunately, when it really arrived at the more treacherous section, the sky was already bright, and the captains of Minsheng Company were experienced and did not have any problems.

As for the Cancer Battleship, Liu Yun really handed it over to Jia Lian, everything depends on how Captain Jia commands, if there is really an accident, he will consider whether to take back the command, if it is just some small accidents, he will turn a blind eye.

For the foggy river, Yuan Qi'er was very excited, according to her, it had a fairyland feeling, but fortunately, she didn't go crazy and performed directly, "fairy floating on water", so Liu Yun followed her, only emphasizing one point, not to affect the normal navigation of the fleet.

With the deepening of the fleet, the navigation situation of the Yangtze River is becoming more and more troublesome, basically sailing according to a fixed route, no deviation of half a point, Liu Yun doesn't care, there is a smart brain to detect the whole process, there is a real accident, he will immediately warn, but from time to time to see the corpses and ship fragments floating upstream, his heart is also a little tight, but Jia Lian is more and more energetic, and the command is determined.

Because the transport fleet is very slow, before noon, I saw more and more ships on the river, many of them are still steamships emitting black smoke, and there are also traditional ships driven by manpower or wind power, some of them are more dangerous and there are more reefs, so they have to rely on the slender ladies on both sides of the strait to tow, shouting neat trumpets, the slender men sweat like rain, Liu Yun felt a lot for a while, there are such kind and hard-working people in China, and the devils will never enter Sichuan.

As the channel became more and more treacherous, and the water situation became more and more complicated, many ships were a little fluttering, and when they saw that the transport fleet was neat and powerful, they all wanted to go with the fleet, and gradually the small fleet of seven ships finally formed a large fleet of hundreds of ships.

Liu Yun was about to issue a warning, Hu Jiansheng and Jia Lian had already issued a flag to the surrounding ships, prohibiting too close to the transport fleet, prohibiting disturbing the formation of the transport fleet, and prohibiting other ships from deliberately causing trouble.

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was still quite bright, because of the fear of missing the harbor that could be docked, the transport fleet did not dare to move forward, under the command of Hu Jiansheng, the fleet anchored in Zigui Town, in order to prevent emergencies, everyone was divided into three shifts, to carry out joint night patrol and vigil, especially the Cancer warship, is ready to fire at any time.

Although Liu Yun has a smart brain, but in the complex terrain of the Three Gorges, he is not so confident, especially if he wants to protect seven ships and more than 400 people, it is really difficult, if he really can't, he has to keep the preheating of the warship engine at any time, provide strong power for the wisdom brain, and carry out large-scale monitoring and early warning of the transport fleet and its surroundings.

Liu Yun himself has ant inner armor protection, and Yuan Qi'er, a master by his side, is not too worried about his own safety, after a bedtime call with Kong Yuling, he fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was already the second morning, and some of the crew had woken up to make final preparations for the next day's voyage, such as preparing breakfast and testing the safety of the ship.

In the Three Gorges in early November, because of the steep mountain walls, the dark water surface, and the mist of the water, even at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, the visibility was still very poor, and it was not until after nine o'clock that the transport fleet dared to set off, and there were occasionally one or two wrecked ships along the way, as well as some survivors who fell into the water and called for help, but because the Three Gorges channel was complicated and there were many reefs, they were afraid that they would not be able to save people, but would suffer themselves, resulting in the ships coming and going around them, none of them were willing to lend a helping hand.

On a shipwrecked ship, there were even a few women and children, the poignant cries for help made the listeners sad and the hearers shed tears, how could this be, everyone is a compatriot, how can they be so cold-blooded, Liu Yun really can't stand it.

Immediately directly ordered the Cancer warship to go to the rescue, the acting captain Jia Lian and the engineer were indifferent at all, even if Colonel Liu made a big official power, it was useless, they all concentrated on sailing with the fleet, and gradually drifted away, and was thinking about whether to forcibly take over the command, a wave hit, and the shipwrecked ship, women and children have disappeared.

Liu Yun felt very uncomfortable in his heart, he really hated himself, why didn't he decide earlier, why didn't he take over the command directly, he was very disgusted by the coldness of Jia Lian and the crew, he was disheartened for a while, returned to the captain's lounge, and secretly wept alone, and then thought about it, if he ordered the ant robot to form a mecha, it would be to go into the water to rescue now, and there was still a certain chance of success.

Yuan Qi'er didn't know when, floated in, looked at Liu Yun with red eyes, knew that this guy was sad for the women and children who were killed, and couldn't help but overflow with love, touching someone's hair, just wanting to say a few words comfortingly, but the words retracted when they came to her mouth, because she suddenly remembered that her own hands were full of blood, from the beginning of the awakening of spiritual power to today's first-class masters, there are hundreds of unjust souls in her hands, and she has no position to comfort others for a while.

Looking at Liu Yun in a daze, Yuan Qi'er smiled bitterly, this guy returned from overseas, and unintentionally, stirred up the situation in China and changed color, and unconsciously became a big man, but in the end, he was just a child who had nothing to do, silently withdrew his hand and quietly accompanied.

When Liu Yun woke up, the transport fleet had arrived in Badong County, the sky was gradually darkening, and people who were interested in shopping in the county town got off the boat one after another.

Liu Yun went to the bathroom to freshen up a little, returned to the lounge and tidied up a little, and was about to go to the restaurant to have a look, when Jia Lian had already come in, carrying the sauce meat and liquor he had just bought, and wanted to share it with him, and he probably still hated Jia Boyu's ruthlessness and was a little childish.

Jia Lian is an old man, he doesn't know what Colonel Liu is thinking, so he closed the hatch by himself, took out two enamel cups, poured a glass of liquor for Liu Yun, and said with emotion, "Brother, you are a good person, today is my brother is wrong, I apologize to you here."

Jia Lian picked up the porcelain cup, drank the liquor in one gulp, stared at Liu Yun's eyes, and said a little sadly, "It's not my brother's ruthlessness today, you haven't experienced this kind of thing, the shipwreck accident in the Three Gorges area, you can't stretch out your hand casually if you are not completely sure."

Liu Yun was also stunned, he couldn't just reach out to save people, what were the rules, Jia Lian said a little depressed, "Because the river is turbulent, the undercurrent is turbulent, and some ships and some reefs will even move slowly, so people who are begging for a living in the Three Gorges know that there are most new reefs or dangers near the ships that have accidents, so unless the people in distress happen to be floating on the customary waterway, no one dares to reach out to the rescue."

So that's the case, Liu Yun recalled the situation at that time, the ship that had the accident and the women and children who were in distress really deviated from the normal course, Jia Lian was also very nervous at that time, he didn't know where there were unexpected dangers around the route, and he was concentrating on commanding the Cancer warship, so he didn't pay much attention to Colonel Liu, and naturally he didn't explain in time.

Only then did he know that Jia Lian was to blame, in that situation, Jia Lian's approach was right, in the case of unknown danger, he did not have a soft ear because of the blind command of his boss, whether it was Hu Lian or not, Liu Yun felt that this was a person who could do great things.

Liu Yun is also a person who makes mistakes, he immediately picked up the enamel wine glass, and after making a slight gesture to Jia Lian, he took a sip and said very sincerely, "Brother Jia, brother, I blame you, you are right to do that, it is you who saved a boat, Liu Mou is here to thank you."

The misunderstanding disappeared for a while, and after the two talked a little, they realized that everyone is a straight person, and they all belong to the kind that can't hide things in their hearts.

Jia Lian could see it, took a sip of liquor, and then said flatly, "It's not all Principal Jiang's fault, it's because I have a bad background and a straight temperament, so I am naturally excluded by others."

Jia Lian didn't shy away from it, and directly mentioned his situation over the years, it turned out that he had been poor since he was a child, so he became the ninth master of the Qinghong Gang in his teens, and later because of the relationship between the Red Gang, he also worked as a bandit in the Yangtze River, Poyang Lake, Dongting Lake, etc., and the river area.

After being introduced by a friend, he went to the Whampoa Military Academy, and after the teachings of the division commanders, he knew his ignorance and absurdity in the past, and since then he has made up his mind to change his past wrongs, and he wants to do something big to make up for the sins he committed in the past.

Liu Cheng is also full of emotion about what happened to Jia Lian, if there is no appearance of his own, this situation will continue until after 1937, when the Kuomintang has passed through a succession, the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, a large number of veterans and officers died on the battlefield, and some unambitious officers had to be used, Hu Lian in history seems to be the same way to become a miscellaneous brigade commander.

As Jia Lian got to know Liu Yun more and more, he became more and more optimistic about the prospects of cooperation between the two in the future, and he became more and more energetic on the Cancer warship.

Under Hu Jiansheng's navigation, the fleet did not have any problems, and generally sailed only after the sun came out and the visibility was good, not in a hurry or impatient, and only sailed for eight or nine hours a day, and each time it had to dock at a large harbor.
