Liu Yun looked at the Turtle Mountain and Snake Mountain that were gradually moving away, and his heart seemed to remain in Kong Yuling's body, and he forcibly resisted the desire to turn back, but secretly made up his mind that he must develop a four-engine transport plane as soon as possible, so that it would be much more convenient to travel to and from Wuhan.

At the highest point of Snake Mountain, Kenji Dohihara, holding a telescope, watched the transport fleet go away, looked at the mini dreadnoughts, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, some were glad that he didn't listen to the slander of his subordinates, looking at Liu Yun's posture, he was really stupid to attack them, and most of them didn't benefit from it, he had also been in the navy before, and he didn't know the horror of dreadnoughts.

Tu Feiyuan looked at Liu Yun who was far away, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, whether it was fear, or contempt, whether it was an enemy, or a friend, he couldn't tell it himself, he just hoped that this guy would be like Liu Bei in Shu, and never go out of Sichuan in the future, it was best to be trapped in Sichuan, of course, this was just his wishful thinking, I am afraid that the time for someone to go out of Sichuan is far faster than he imagined.

Liu Yun finally left, the person who almost killed him finally left, Tu Feiyuan was relieved, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a strange thing from the telescope, rubbed his eyes, and looked at it carefully, sure enough, he was not mistaken, no wonder he always felt that the fleet was a little slow.

So it was, Tu Feiyuan suddenly rolled on the ground with laughter, "semi-diving" transportation of large steel parts, it is really a genius idea, he wants to award a medal to this genius, this set of steelmaking equipment is the latest equipment in France, and it is steelmaking by electricity, like this for a long time semi-submersible, not to mention whether the steel will be deformed, resulting in an accident in the smelting, even if Liu Yun's character is good, it will not be deformed, but half of the steel is in the air, half in the water, it is also easy to electrolysis, after transporting, Whether it works properly or not is a question.

The last trace of doubt was also dispelled, Kenji Dohihara, left satisfied, he could finally go back to the base camp to post, this trip to Wuhan, more successful than he expected, as long as he kept in touch with Funakoshi and Qingzi in the future, he could control Liu Yun, hum, the next step, should consider the issue of "North China autonomy", I don't mind too much if I think I come to Nanjing.

The whole transport fleet is in a line, because there are large steel parts in a semi-submersible state, the speed can not be fast at all, the collective maintains the speed of eleven or two knots, and the order of navigation is also very particular, a navigation ship goes first, mainly for the six ships behind to explore the way.

Therefore, there is a distance of more than 100 meters between the navigation ship and the first cargo ship behind, which is to beware of reefs and shipwrecks, or water bandits colliding with ships and other accidents.

Sandwiched in the middle are four cargo ships, and finally the logistics oil tankers of the fleet, and Liu Yun's Cancer warship, the reason why the Cancer warship is put at the end is because Minsheng Company has two considerations, one is that Liu Yun and his party are not familiar with the channel of the Yangtze River, especially in the Three Gorges area, there are many reefs, the undercurrent is turbulent, and the invincible mini dreadnought is difficult to say that there is no accident, that is, or the character is good and there is an accident, and the unknown route leads to the overall navigation slowing down, and the transport fleet can't stand it.

Secondly, according to the statistics of the Minsheng Company, most of the ships robbed by the bandits in the Yangtze River and other inland waterway shipping are the last few ships of a fleet, just like a lion attacking a flock, and generally do not directly attack the front, so the Cancer warships with strong firepower and full-time combat are in the best position in the transport fleet, which is at the end of the entire fleet.

Liu Yun drew inferences from one another, if the navigation ship at the front, once an accident occurs, the fastest and most powerful Cancer warship can immediately increase its speed, and it can even reach a high speed of 42 knots, a distance of one or two kilometers, that is, a matter of a few minutes, and the effective range of the battleship's artillery fire is as high as 3.5 kilometers, which is about the same anywhere in the fleet.

After a day's voyage, in the evening, the transport fleet arrived in Jiayu County, after a short rest, under the guidance of the lighthouse along the Yangtze River, continued the night voyage, until about ten o'clock in the evening did not drop the anchor, Liu Yun made a little inquiry, only to know that Yueyang.

Yueyang, just the confluence of Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River, it is said that there is also a famous place Yueyang Tower, although Liu Yun wants to see the appearance of Yueyang Tower, but the time is close to night, except for the port and the night market near it There are some lights, the surroundings are pitch black.

When Liu Yun was depressed, Hu Jiansheng of the pilot ship had already notified the person in charge of each ship to hold a meeting through the traffic boat, and asked all ships to pay attention to fire prevention and theft, after all, Yueyang is the confluence of the Yangtze River and Dongting Lake, and there are often some heroes wandering here, and no one can guarantee that these bandits and bandits will not make trouble, especially under the cover of night, it is even more rampant.

Liu Yun went to the pilot ship, and after a period of clichés, Hu Jiansheng, the general director of the fleet, said his thoughts, he thought that the fleet should take advantage of the good traffic conditions, and strive to rush from Yueyang to Yichang within tomorrow, but considering the long distance, the speed is slow.

Therefore, Hu Jiansheng suggested that the fleet should stop at Yueyang for a few hours, then set off immediately, and it is estimated that it will sail for another 20 hours, that is, at this time tomorrow night, it will arrive in Yichang, and everyone should repair for a day to make final preparations for entering the Three Gorges.

Liu Yun doesn't understand the shipping of the Yangtze River, so naturally he won't speak nonsense, but the person in charge of other ships has different opinions, most of them think that "safety is the first", sail for 20 hours, and the two ends are dark, the most prone to accidents, everyone goes out to figure out.

In the end, the captains had no choice but to learn Western democracy, and held a collective vote on whether to sail at night, except for Liu Yun who did not understand and did not vote, the rest was just three votes to three, Hu Jiansheng smiled bitterly, so he had to do work with Liu Yun to see what Liu Dong's opinion was.

Liu Yun also hesitated, he didn't understand at all, he was currently serving as the captain of the Cancer Warship, after all, he was still learning to sail while sailing, and the reason why there were no mistakes was still relying on the assistance of the brain, and the manipulation of the ant robot, even if there was a problem, it could be corrected in time.

Night sailing, Liu Yun can also guarantee that the "Cancer" will not have an accident, but it is true that there is no guarantee that other ships will not have an accident, when he said his concerns, the other captains laughed, everyone is a veteran on this section of the river, even if you close your eyes, you can also drive the boat to Yichang, the night voyage at both ends is also pediatrics, and what everyone is really worried about is the Cancer.

Hu Jiansheng's real concern is still the Three Gorges, now that the dry season is approaching, whether many sections can be navigated, is a question, the reason why he wanted to go to Yichang a day earlier, is to collect the latest navigation information, Liu Yun has also heard of the name of the Three Gorges, it is said that after 1950, some reefs were bombed, and it is still a high-incidence area of accidents, so he decided to vote for Hu Jiansheng.

Since everyone reached an agreement on the night voyage, the captains did not say much, and immediately returned to their respective ships to prepare for the night voyage of the fleet, Hu Jiansheng was not worried about Liu Yun, and wanted to personally go to the Cancer warship to assist in command, but Liu Yun frankly admitted that it was a military secret, and politely declined.

After Liu Yun returned to the Cancer warship, he had some guesses about Hu Jiansheng, and he did not suspect that he was a spy of the Japanese, but suspected that he was a member of the Wuhan Jiang Fangjun, and wanted to take the opportunity of night sailing to get on the warship, most of which was to explore the truth and truth, and it was not ruled out that the military wanted to directly requisition.

Liu Yun didn't bother to think too much, as for the Cancer warship, no one wanted to move, he also wanted to rely on its cannon to deter bandits and bandits along the way, especially after arriving in Anchang Town in Fucheng, and relying on its strong power to drag 1,200 tons of steelmaking equipment back to West Sichuan County.

As for the Jiang Defense Army in Wuhan and Yichang, Liu Yun also thought of a way, through the ant robot, to contact Kong Yuling, and asked her to greet Kong Caishen in Nanjing, and the relevant departments in Nanjing gave orders to the Jiang Defense Army in Yichang and asked them to assist him in transporting equipment into Sichuan.

When the time comes, I don't know who will requisition whom, Liu Yun smiled darkly, and his heart was a little ruthless, if there was really no way, he directly took out Lao Jiang's handwritten warrant, and also made a prelude, so that the Jiang Defense Army could also try the power of the "Cancer Battleship" firepower salvo.

A few hours later, the transport fleet continued to set off, under the illumination of the lighthouses along the way, the night sailing state of other ships was no different from the daytime, thanks to the captains' years of sailing practice, and the rich experience of the sailors, and Liu Yun had the uninterrupted scanning of the brain, even if there was no starlight and moonlight at night, it was the same as the daylight, all kinds of navigation conditions were clear, and with the efforts of Kong's sailors, the voyage of the fleet was always the same, which made the captains put away their contemptuous mentality.

With the support of twelve engines, if the brain is fully fired, its scanning radius is as high as 20 kilometers, Liu Yun can predict many navigation situations in advance, and several times want to remind the fleet that there are broken ships at the bottom of the river in front of them, or debris floating upstream.

As a result, before Liu Yun could send a signal, Hu Jiansheng on the pilot ship had already sent a signal and guided the fleet to avoid them one by one, and then Liu Dongjia really knew the difference between an amateur captain and a professional captain, if he didn't have a brain, he would be a rookie at all.

Fortunately, the night flight time was very short, only three or four hours, and when the sun just came out, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and secretly made up their minds that if possible, they would never accompany Hu Jiansheng, a madman, to play any night flight, which was simply terrible.

As there were more and more ships on the river, Liu Yun was thinking about whether to eat some breakfast, the transport fleet was already about to arrive in Jianli County, the river was deep and wide, and there were no reefs, which was the best seaworthiness section, and the fleet couldn't help but speed up.

At noon, the fleet had arrived in Jingzhou, and Liu Yun couldn't help but remember a friend, it was Yang Kai during the military training in Nanjing, this person was the old Yang family in Jingzhou City, and now he should be the deputy county magistrate of Shayang County, Jingzhou, I don't know if this nerd went to take office.

The fleet did not understand someone's sentimentality, and was not even ready to stop, and continued to move forward at full speed, and had already raised the ten knots of the night voyage to twelve or three knots, probably because the captains were really scared, and really didn't want to do any more night sailing, so they involuntarily accelerated the speed of the ship, arrived at Shashi before dark, and walked for two hours at night, and finally arrived in Yichang an hour and a half earlier than the expected time.

After two days of sailing, everyone was a little tired, and the captains generously told all the crew that the fleet would rest in Yichang for a day, and everyone could go shopping in Yichang City, but it was best not to be too long, because if the Three Gorges traffic conditions permitted, the boat might be sailed in advance.
