East of Yangzhou, East China Sea.

At this time, there were thirty large ships riding the wind and waves at sea.

Each of these thirty big ships is more than 12 zhang, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, this kind of big ship can be called a giant, and in front of the fleet, the two giant ships are as long as 18 zhang huge, the military flag hanging on the mast is embroidered with a white dragon with teeth and claws, this is the military flag of the Dragon God Army, there is no semicolon in the Three Kingdoms period.

Compared with the last time, the number of big ships this time has increased by five, which is newly made by the craftsmen of Wanghai City, after the news of Lin Bei's occupation of Xiangyang came out, the craftsmen of Wanghai City rushed to work day and night, and stepped up the pace of manufacturing.

He Ming went back this time, delayed for two days, in addition to bringing the tank and combat vehicle to Wanghai, Cui Lan also asked He Ming to bring the Hidden Dragon Special Combat Army, and a hundred Hidden Dragon soldiers were scattered on thirty ships to protect the safety of the fleet.

The delay of two days is because the craftsmen of Wanghai City have strengthened the two Dawei Dragon King ships, and the tail has changed from two steam engines to three, one on the left, one on the right, and the use of the three steam engines has not increased the speed of the Dawei Dragon King Ship, but made the balance of the Dawei Dragon King Ship stronger, and at the same time, the craftsmen added a thick layer of iron plates to the front of the two Dawei Dragon King Ships, with the reinforcement of iron plates, which made the collision ability of the Dawei Dragon King Ship quite terrifying.

Nowadays, Wanghai City actually does not have the talent to fight on the water, all because of the large size and speed of the ships, far beyond the level of this era, but considering that it is likely to be intercepted by ships on the river, and inspired by tank fighting vehicles, it will be reinforced on the Great Dragon King ship.

Yes, Wanghai City does not have combat talents on the water, but it doesn't matter, just directly exert the violence thoroughly, the Great Dragon King Ship is so huge. Far surpass those military ships, and just smash those military ships directly.

This kind of violent water warfare is only applicable to the ships of Wanghai City, the use of steam engines allows large ships to run faster and more powerful than sailboats, coupled with the huge hull of the ship, once it collides with a small boat. The boat will definitely disintegrate lightly, and the river is not too wide, so it is difficult to dodge.

This kind of violent water combat method can definitely make the big ships of Wanghai City invincible in the inland rivers, and they are invincible vertically/horizontally, so this time, He Ming hopes that there are some ships that can only come to die before arriving in Xiangyang, and try the combat effectiveness of the Great Dragon King Ship.

The first city of Yangzhou passing through the mouth of the East China Sea is the place where Yangzhou is now governed, that is, Jianye City, and there is a Jianye Port on the edge of Jianye City. Last time, Wanghai City's fleet came here, and many small boats wanted to stop the fleet, but they were all thrown away, but this time, He Ming let the fleet slow down first and slowly gallop past Jianye Port.

"Huh? There are no warships? Standing at the bow of the ship, He Ming looked at Jianye Port, but did not see any military ships. There are boats, but most of them are fish boats. These fish boats were facing the big ship of Wanghai City, so they could naturally only watch from a distance, and they didn't dare to step forward at all.

"Is there any war? So Jianye City sent all the warships? He Ming had some regrets.

The fleet accelerated again, going upstream, and when passing through Guangling City, it also did not encounter any warships. He Ming then confirmed that there must be a war in Yangzhou.

"It seems that the last time I heard that Sun Jian wanted to attack Jianye, could it be that Liu Jian and Sun Jian started a big war?"

This news made He Ming not sad or happy, he felt that it didn't matter, the main task this time was to send the tank and combat vehicles to Xiangyang. It's best if you can solve some people along the way, and if not, there will definitely be a chance next time.

It can also be seen from this that He Ming's confidence is so strong now, even Liu Xiang and Sun Jian and others don't pay much attention to it, of course, this is only limited to river operations, if it is a ground battle, He Ming will definitely not think so.

The fleet passed through Moling City and Liyang City in a row, all of which were smooth sailing, and seeing that they were about to arrive in Spring Valley City, the flag-bearer on the ship of the Great Dragon King suddenly waved the flag.

"There are many fleets ahead?" When He Ming saw the flag, he immediately became excited, and he went up to the observation attic of the ship and looked ahead.

Sure enough, there were indeed many military ships on the river, and the fleet of Wanghai City should have been spotted over there, so the military ships were also in formation, preparing to stop the fleet of Wanghai City.

"The military flag has the word Liu written on it, is it Liu Xuan's army?" He Ming muttered.

He Ming was a little puzzled, how did Liu Miao come to Spring Valley City, and He Ming did not see any traces of a major battle in Liu Miao's army, and obviously did not fight with Sun Jian.

In fact, Liu Miao is preparing to go to Xiangyang, Yangzhou is already developed by water, so Liu Miao will naturally go to Xiangyang by water, this time, Liu Miao mobilized a total of nearly 500 military ships, 50,000 sailors, it can be said that he is going to Xiangyang to kill the monster of Lin Bei, but Liu Miao's fleet is much slower than Wanghai City's fleet, and it is against the current, so it set off for several days, and was also caught up by He Ming.

Both sides found each other, the standard-bearers began to wave their flags, the trumpets sounded, and although there was no grudge against each other, the war was on the verge of breaking out.

The Yangtze River is wide, Liu Xuan's 500 military ships are densely packed in the middle, stretching for more than ten miles, if you look closely, you can find that Liu Xuan is actually very talented in water warfare, and the military ships under his command can echo each other, among them, the large, medium and small wing military ships are placed in a certain direction, quite a formation, on the other hand, looking at the fleet on this side of Haicheng, the formation on this side is a long dragon, and then, He Ming ordered, another Dawei Dragon King accelerated a little, and the previous Dawei Dragon King was juxtaposed, and the following fleet just followed, The sergeants on the ship drew their bows and arrows, and some of them did not even hold their blades, but prepared to extinguish the fire.

One side stopped guarding, while the other continued to move forward, so the two sides quickly came into contact.

"Who's coming?" In Liu Xuan's army, a loud roar came from a small wing boat.

He Ming smiled slightly, and with a wave of his hand, several sergeants on the Great Dragon King ship bent their bows and arrows, and with just a few arrows, they shot the people on the ship into hedgehogs and turned over and fell into the water.

With another wave of his hand, the Great Dragon King began to slowly accelerate, crashing towards Liu Xuan's fleet with a sky-high momentum.

When did Liu Xuan's navy see this kind of river warfare, but when he saw the iron plate in front of the Dawei Dragon King Ship, and then looked at the size of the Dawei Dragon King Ship, he knew in his heart that if he was really hit, I was afraid that their ships would only be torn apart.

Although He Ming saw those water ghosts, he was not afraid at all, with the speed of the Great Dragon King Ship, it was really a fool's dream to chisel through the bottom of the ship under the water, who could swim as fast as a steamboat?

Although Liu Xuan's navy reflected the speed was also good, but there were always ships that could not be reflected, and they were mercilessly hit by the Dawei Dragon King ship, and with a few bangs, the hull was directly knocked away, and the sergeant on the ship would definitely be killed as long as he escaped slowly.

After the two Dawei Dragon King ships collided with the ship, the hull was only slightly shocked, nothing happened at all, the sergeants on the ship all bent their bows and arrows, and shot mercilessly towards the surrounding ships, the dragon god sergeant didn't care about the ship, and the place where he stood was high, so he could shoot with confidence, on the other hand, Liu Xuan's sergeant, their ship must first avoid the Dawei Dragon King ship before they could counterattack, and the place where they stood was low, and the disadvantage was great.

Suddenly, the two sides exchanged arrows and arrows, screaming continuously, most of them were sent by Sergeant Liu Xuan, and Liao Liao, who was injured by the Dragon God Army, was very little, once he was injured, he retreated directly, or lay down on the boat, and the sergeant on Liu Xuanjun's ship could not see it at all.

Bang bang!!

The two mighty dragon king ships destroyed fifty or sixty military ships in a row, and smashed a bloody road from Liu Xuan's naval army, and the smallest of the Wanghai City ships followed by was also twelve zhang, which was not too inferior, and the remaining ships were also knocked away, and then they drove away, and went farther and farther away in the sight of Liu Xuan's military ships, and their ships could not catch up at all

After the fleet of Wanghai City left, there were many water ghosts floating on the river, and all of them had a helpless look on their faces: Damn, the boat is too fast, they can't climb the boat at all, and there is no way to talk about wanting to chisel through the bottom of the ship.

This inexplicable war actually lasted only a few minutes, but Liu Miao's navy suffered a lot of losses, sixty or seventy ships were destroyed, most of them were hit by the big ships of Wanghai City, some of them were hit by themselves because of evasion, and the sergeants in Liu Miao's army died more than 2,000, most of them were shot to death, and corpses were floating everywhere on the river.

This kind of loss is actually acceptable, but what Liu Miao can't accept is the loss of the Dragon God Army, not even the fur is injured, and Liu Miao still can't figure out whose force the Dragon God Army belongs to, Liu Miao is quite aggrieved.

Liu Miao slowly peeled off the cocoon, but he knew a little about the origin of the Dragon God Army, because He Ming also passed through Jianye City last time, but Liu Miao still didn't know which force He Ming belonged to, and he didn't know where so many big ships came from.

"Why are these big ships so fast?" Liu Miao couldn't think of it even if he wanted to break his scalp.

The ships of this era mostly rely on manpower and sails to move forward, if they go down the river, it is easy to say, but if they go upstream, the larger the ship, the more pulp hands are needed, and it is almost difficult for the boats of six zhang and seven zhang to roll backwards in the river, Liu Miao has always thought that all ships are like this, but now, the big ship of eighteen zhang is still flying up fast, which really hit Liu Xuan.

Liu Miao was aggrieved, but He Ming felt extremely happy, this battle, really brought the destructive power of the Dawei Dragon King ship into full play, thirty big ships faced five hundred military ships, calmly passed, damaged the opponent's sixty or seventy military ships, but did not hurt their own fur, even the Dragon God Army miraculously did not lose a single person, only more than 100 people were injured, in addition to miracles, it also shows the strength of this combat method.

It is conceivable that as long as Wanghai City continues to maintain the superiority of large ships and steam engines, then it will always be in a dominant position in water warfare. (To be continued......)
