Lin Bei really didn't want to slap Li Chang's face, but sometimes some people just like to stick their faces out.

When he saw this fleet in the river, Li Chang's old face suddenly turned red, and he felt that he had no face to see the river god again, but at the same time, Li Chang was quite surprised, where is this fleet, why are all such huge ships?

Li Chang's mind turned, and he immediately said urgently: "My lord, this shouldn't be the fleet of the barbarian army, right?" Want to attack my Xiangyang City? ”

Lin Bei was speechless: "Li Chang, you really think too much"

These ships are all big ships in Wanghai City, there are twenty-five in total, and the two ships in front are the two Great Dragon King ships, and there are two people standing on the bow, both of whom are acquaintances, one is Bian Ji, and the other is He Ming

, as for Cui Lan, it did not come.

The arrival of these huge ships made the people of Xiangyang a little frightened, because they had never seen such a huge ship, especially the Great Dragon King Ship, which was eighteen zhang on its body, it was an aircraft carrier of this era, and anyone would be surprised when they saw it.

The sergeant at the head of the city was also startled, and was about to blow the horn, when Lin Bei shouted: "There is no need for this, these fleets are summoned by this god. ”

After speaking, Lin Bei jumped off the dock and swam towards the fleet.

Bian Ji at the bow of the ship had already seen Lin Bei, because Lin Bei's size was too conspicuous, Bian Ji hurriedly beckoned, and He Ming also slowed down the fleet.

As soon as Lin Bei swam in front of the Dawei Dragon King Ship, Bian Ji and He Ming knelt down, and Bian Ji said: "My lord, Xiangyang City has really fallen into the hands of adults?" ”

Lin Bei nodded: "Yes, but you guys came really fast." ”

"After getting the news from Zhen, we were afraid that something would happen to the adults, so we rushed here immediately."

"Is there another fleet on the way?"

"Yes, but our steamships are extremely fast, and those sailboats can't stop them. We didn't get entangled with it, and it was smooth sailing along the way. ”

He Ming said on the side: "My lord, thanks to the master's guidance, if the villain comes by himself, I am afraid he will get lost." ”

Lin Bei nodded: "Master." It turns out that you are quite familiar with the terrain of the Central Plains. "I looked at the ship again, there were no tank chariots on the Dawei Dragon King ship, well, Lin Bei did not order the tank chariots to be sent.

"Xuezhi is originally from the Central Plains," Bian Ji said with a smile.

Lin Bei swam in front, slowly introducing the fleet to the dock, and the surrounding people moved the boats away, looking at the fleet with curiosity in awe. Twenty-five large ships lined up, almost occupying the Fan River.

Bian Ji and He Ming also looked at Xiangyang City with novelty, and saw the awe of the people around them for adults, so they really believed that Lin Bei had also ambushed Xiangyang City.

In fact, after receiving the news from Lin Bei, there was a short argument on the side of Wanghai City, that is, how many boats to send to meet the adult, and then Cui Lan said: "I know the power of the adult in the water, if you need to respond." That mighty dragon king ship must not be enough, anyway, there is no war around the Mekong River now. It's better to send out all the big ships, if the adults really occupy Xiangyang City, they can also be used as a guard. ”

As a result, Wanghai City sent all the big ships, but there were not too many sergeants, and now there were only 1,500 dragon god troops on board. After all, there are not many sergeants in Wanghai City, but the batch of sergeants sent out are all the elite of the Dragon God Army, of course, the most important thing is that these people are very loyal, compared to the River God Army. It can make Lin Bei trust more.

When the ship was stopped, Meng Shu and Pang Tong hurried over, Meng Shu saw Bian Ji, and immediately smiled, but did not speak, but ordered the river god army to let the civilian ships in the dock leave first, and all went to the north pier, so that the east pier docked the big ship of Wanghai City, so as not to collide at the time, in addition, I am afraid that the ship will be damaged, these are all steamships, and the value is very high.

"Meng Shu, order all Xiangyang people not to approach the ship, He Ming, let the sergeant of the Dragon God Army not get off the ship, not unload the armor, if someone approaches without permission, warn first, and kill on the spot if you don't listen." Lin Bei said in a low voice.

Meng Shu and He Ming both nodded and gave their respective orders.

Subsequently, Lin Bei took Bian Ji and others to the city lord's mansion, and on the way, he met Xu Shu and Kong Ming again, so they walked together.

After entering the City Lord's Mansion, he first brought wine and food, and then let the River God Army withdraw from the City Lord's Mansion, so that only his henchmen were left in the house.

Lin Bei began to introduce one by one, Meng Shu and Xu Shu naturally knew Bian Ji, and they were naturally familiar with He Ming, they wanted to introduce Kong Ming and Pang Tong, after some narration, Lin Beipan was on the top, and the rest of the people sat down in turn, Bian Ji sat on the lower left of Lin Bei, the closest to Lin Bei, under Bian Ji was Meng Shu, He Ming, the first on the right was Xu Shu, Kong Ming, and then Pang Tong,

For this kind of ranking, Kong Ming and Pang Tong have no opinion, after all, they are new to this regime, Bian Ji is an old man who has followed Lin Bei for a long time, and he is also a dragon god envoy, even in Wanghai City, Bian Ji is only under Lin Bei.

Another high-ranking person is Cui Lan, Kong Ming and Pang Tong both know that she is a female general, leading the Chenlong Army, comparable to the position of a general, and is the first person in the military under Lin Bei, who is now sitting in Wanghai and did not come.

Just sat down, Zhu Rong also entered the city lord's mansion, and then, Zhu Rong sat behind Meng Shu, which is also a tradition of the Zhu Rong clan, if a man comes forward, his wife will only hide behind him.

With the arrival of Zhurong, in addition to Huang Chengyan, this time it can be said that the old and new are gathered together.

Lin Bei coughed and said, "Kong Ming, Shi Yuan, you tell the master and He Ming about the current situation in Xiangyang. ”

Kong Ming and Pang Tong bowed their hands together, knowing that the adults were deepening their relationship with the dragon god envoy.

After listening to this, Bian Ji looked at the two of them and exclaimed: "It is really worthy of being a handsome and talented person in the Confucian Academy, and the adults can get the help of the two, like a tiger with wings." ”

Kong Ming and Pang Tong didn't even dare to say it.

Lin Bei smiled: "Master, this is not like a tiger with wings. ”

Bian Ji suddenly smiled and said: "It's a gaffe of learning, this is like a dragon with wings."

Lin Bei laughed and said: "Okay, with this word, it's worth drinking a cup, come, it's all done." ”

The crowd hurriedly raised their glasses and drank to their heart's content.

After a drink. Bian Ji straightened his face and asked, "My lord, although Xiangyang has been under the rule of the adult, but the surrounding situation is not good, does the adult have a good plan?" ”

"The soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth." Lin Bei smiled: "In addition, He Ming may have to run again." ”

"Your Excellency, please command." He Ming stood up.

"This time I just brought a fleet. I need you to look back at the sea again, and let the fleet bring the tanks and tanks to Xiangyang City. ”

Bian Ji asked: "My lord, in this way, we need to fight with the Central Plains heroes, with the current 30,000 river god army in Xiangyang, even if the dragon god army can transfer some to come, I'm afraid the strength is not enough, right?" ”

"That's why we need to transfer tanks and combat vehicles, and the two sides to the northeast of Xiangyang City are the Fan River, and there is me in the river. So you don't have to worry that someone will attack Xiangyang from the middle of the river, the northwest direction is Shangyong and Fangling, and people have been sent to persuade them to surrender, even if these two cities do not surrender, with the strength of these two cities, there is no need to worry too much, so don't look at me Although Xiangyang is surrounded by wolves, in a short period of time, only Liu Biao can attack Xiangyang. Like Yuan Shao, Sun Jian. After the tank and combat vehicle are transferred, it will be used as the main force in the early stage of the war, accumulate the confidence of the River God Army, and wait until the back, the River God Army will be able to grow. ”

"Also. There were many craftsmen in Xiangyang City, and after a while, the craftsmen of Wanghai City also came to Xiangyang to instruct these craftsmen to make steam engines and tank chariots, if they could make thousands of tank chariots. Even if the enemy army is numerous, what should we fear? You know, the periphery of Xiangyang City is flat. ”

If there are thousands of tanks and chariots charging together, it is really a person blocking and killing, and the Buddha is blocking and killing the Buddha, there were not many people in Wanghai City before, but now the population of Xiangyang City has joined it, and there are more than 500,000 people, and it will be several times faster to make something.

"Now that you have made up your mind, we will do as we are told."

He Ming asked, "My lord, the villain will immediately look back at the sea?" ”

Lin Bei thought for a while and asked, "At the current speed of a steamship, how many days does it take to look back at the sea once?" ”

"If one qiē shun lì, it only takes five days and nights."

Except for Bian Ji and He Ming, everyone present looked shocked, these people had already heard the name of the steam engine, and they had tried their best to think about the role of the steam engine, but now that they heard this exact number, Xu Shu and the others still felt extremely surprised, and they could only look back at Haicheng in five days and nights? Wouldn't it take only ten days and nights to make a round trip?

Where is Wanghai City? In the extreme south of the territory of the Han Dynasty, if it was before, from Xiangyang to Wanghai by land, even if it was horsebacking, day and night, I am afraid it would take a month, this is still the best situation, if you add the appearance of unexpected situations, three months is already very fast, in fact, no one will be so idle to experiment, but everyone knows that ten days and nights back and forth is impossible.

But now, something that was originally impossible has appeared, everyone knows that this is what the steam engine brings, even if Xiangyang City is lost in the future, as long as there is a steam ship, it can attack the hinterland of the Central Plains at any time, what a terrible thing it is for the Central Plains heroes.

"A fetish, if it's really a fetish." At the same time, there are more expectations for that tank tank.

"Ten more days and nights?" Lin Bei was a little dissatisfied, and asked Bian Jidao: "Before I left, the craftsmen had already made the water drawing machine, and in addition, I also told the craftsmen to improve the water drawing machine, but now has it been made in real condition?" ”

"It's under development."

"Oh." Lin Bei was a little disappointed.

The water engine is the prototype of the internal combustion engine, once it is made, the internal combustion engine can be used instead of the steam engine, and the speed of the ship will increase, and a round trip in ten days can be called a god speed in the eyes of Xu Shu and others, but Lin Bei is still not satisfied, the plane of the future generations can fly in half a day, Lin Bei has seen a lot, so he does not think it is an exaggeration.

However, disappointment and disappointment, Lin Bei had no choice, he could only point out the direction, and the real thing had to rely on the craftsman, five days and nights would be five days and nights, back and forth for more than ten days, and nothing could happen in Xiangyang City, so he said: "Meng Shu, tell the staff, prepare meat, let the Dragon God Army eat first, rest for a day, and then set off for Wanghai tomorrow morning." ”

He Ming got up and said, "Thank you, sir." ”

Lin Bei said to He Ming again: "Wanghai City is the foundation of my Great Power Dragon King Sect, after you go back, tell Sù Cui Lan and Zhongzhi, during this period of my absence, you must be careful, the matter of conquering the Pufeng people can be suspended, build more big ships, in addition, the construction of roads and Vientiane City cannot be stopped, after a while, a group of people may be sent to Wanghai City, let Zhongzhi pay attention to it." ”

Although he occupied Xiangyang City, it may be because he has not been here for a long time, so Lin Bei has not yet given birth to a sense of belonging here, in Lin Bei's heart, Wanghai City is more important than Xiangyang City, and when the big ship is built a lot, Lin Bei will definitely send some more people to Wanghai, these people can be Xiangyang people, or people from the surrounding cities, it is best to send all the people from Xiangyang City and the surrounding cities away, so that there is no worry about Wanghai people Ding Buwang.

On the second day, He Ming left with the fleet and Bian Ji's handwritten letter, and he would return to Wanghai City to transport the tanks and chariots.

At noon, the outpost of the Heshen Army reported that Liu Biao was coming towards Xiangyang with the army, and where he passed, he shouted the slogan that Xiangyang City was occupied by monsters, so he wanted to come to Xiangyang to eliminate demons.

Liu Biao was originally a state pastor, and he had a certain reputation in Jingzhou, and along the way, the original army of 20,000 skyrocketed to 40,000. (To be continued......)
