It was precisely because of these considerations that Shangguan Qiuyu would grit his teeth and exchange fifty Nine Dragon Battleships at once.

is going to use this to crush the forces of the sailors under the command of King Zhennan, so that the other party can obediently hand over the troop transport ship to himself.

After all, the shipbuilding industry in southern Xinjiang is much behind that of southern Xinjiang, and it is not known how long it will take to build qualified troop carriers and warships.

He didn't have that much time, so he let his subordinates slowly dig people up and slowly accumulate shipbuilding experience.

At the same time, Shangguan Qiuyu's move was more to deter the Zhennan Wangfu and the five families.

If the Shangguan family did not have a fleet to take action, wouldn't the southern frontier boundary be left to the southern division of the navy at that time.

Once the Shangguan family has a strong sailor power, then they will take care of the convenience and dare not easily make enemies with their own family.

Moreover, southern Xinjiang has a strong surface force, and once the two sides are at odds, the southern Xinjiang sailors can also directly go up the river to kill in the south.

Nandi has been comfortable for so many years, coupled with the vertical and horizontal waterways of Nandi, as long as the water power of the Zhennan Wangfu and the five surnamed families cannot stop the Shangguan family's sailors.

Then the troops of southern Xinjiang can land everywhere in the south at will, and then the years of peace and prosperity in the south will be wiped out in an instant.

In this way, with such concerns, the Zhenwang Mansion and the five surnamed families will not turn their faces and play tricks after their own army leaves.

Although Nandi occupies a geographical advantage, it is located in the upper reaches of the water potential of southern Xinjiang.

However, once the Shangguan family had such a powerful water power as the Nine Dragons Battleship, the geographical advantage occupied by Nandi would instantly turn into nothingness.

After all, the Kowloon warship is not something that can be knocked over or burned down the river by a few warships going down the river.

In the inner courtyard of the Zhennan Wangfu, at this time, Zhennan Wang Xuanyuan Yi asked Xiao An in front of him with a gloomy face:

"Haven't you found it yet?"

Seeing his prince's gloomy face, Xiao Anxin couldn't help but tighten, and hurriedly replied:

"Back to the prince, the villain has already sent someone to check, and news has been sent back everywhere, saying that he has not seen the battleship of the five family families pass by during this time.

Moreover, the villain got the news that the Xiang family and the rest of the family were also collecting news about the appearance of the Kowloon warship in Bashui, and it was obvious that the Xiang family had no trace of involvement. ”

Hearing Xiao An say this, Xuanyuan Yi's brows couldn't help frowning even more.

Shen said:

"So, those warships have nothing to do with the Xiang family's shipyard?"

Xiao An nodded affirmatively and said:

"It should be, after all, there are fifty Nine Dragon warships, which is definitely not something that the Xiang family can build in a short period of time.

You must know that the imperial court gathered the entire southern craftsmen and it took nearly ten years to build dozens of Kowloon warships.

Although the Xiang family and other major families received a lot of craftsmen left over from that year.

However, the Xiang family has always tried their best to build merchant ships, and some warships will be built except for the needs of the Zhennan Wangfu and the five families' own guards.

With the strength of the current Xiang family and several others, it is not an overnight thing to build so many new warships at once.

Moreover, they don't know anything about it, which is almost completely impossible. ”

Hearing Xiao An finish speaking, Zhennan Wang Xuanyuan Yi was silent, indeed, as Xiao An said.

If you want to build a water giant like the Nine Dragons Battleship, with the ability of the five surnamed families, it can't be done overnight.

Moreover, the Zhennan Wangfu is not a decoration, and the power of the five surname families has definitely spread to the palace, but in the same way, the Zhennan Wangfu also has eyeliner buried in the five surname families.

To build a water giant like the Kowloon Battleship, the manpower and material resources required are absolutely astronomical.

It is impossible for such a time-consuming and laborious thing to go without any news coming out in the meantime.

But in this way, where did the dozens of huge warships that suddenly appeared in Bashui come from.

Could it be that it fell from the sky?

In this regard, King Zhennan shook his head in confusion, obviously not believing it.

However, such a huge fleet could not appear out of thin air, no matter where it came from, there should always be a way to come.

Now there is no news from the following one by one, I don't see it, I don't know it, and so on.

It is necessary to know that the Zhennan Wangfu is directly under the jurisdiction of the water divisions in the south, and all the water transportation arteries in the south are controlled and eyelined by the water divisions under the jurisdiction of the Zhennan Wangfu.

With the appearance of such a huge fleet, it is absolutely impossible not to attract people's attention, but now the news is coming to him, but he can't help but feel cold.

If the battleship that suddenly appeared in Shangguan's house did not fall from the sky, then it means that his generals are lying.

Nowadays, the land garrisons in various places in the entire southern land are mainly under the orders of the official of the Zhenguo Gong.

If even the sailors under the jurisdiction of the Zhennan Wangfu were also affected by it, obeyed the orders of the Zhenguo Gong Shangguanxiong, and disobeyed his own yang and yin, then he would not be completely hollowed out by him.

Thinking of this, Zhennan Wang Xuanyuan couldn't help but feel a chill, and a cold sweat couldn't help but break out on his back.

As a confidant of his own prince on the side, Xiao An naturally knew what his prince was worried about.

Naturally, he had also heard of the energy of the three words of Zhenguo Gong in Dayu's military, and he only listened to it before and didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, Nandi, like Southern Xinjiang, is far away from Yucheng and the Central Plains.

However, because of the vertical and horizontal waterways and convenient transportation in the south, the imperial court still has a certain degree of control over the south.

For a long time, the southern region has been in a state of comfort for a long time, whether it is the northern captives in the north, or the barbarians in the south, or the rebellions that arise from time to time in the Central Plains, these basically cannot affect the southern land.

Therefore, the local power in the south is very large, and most of the generals of the garrisons in various places are from local families.

But even so, when the order of the town and country general came, these people also obeyed it.

You must know that Zhennan Wangfu is the direct boss of these people, and these people don't sell the face of Zhennan Wangfu much on weekdays.

However, these people are very different in their treatment of the Duke of Zhenguo and the King of Zhennan.

And this also allowed Xiao An to thoroughly see the hidden heritage of the Shangguan family in the Dayu Dynasty.

Why did the royal family not act rashly even if they saw that the Shangguan family was gradually gaining momentum, which is obviously not without reason.

Just when Xiao An was standing quietly aside, not daring to say more to disturb his prince, a steward appeared at the door.

"What's the matter?" Seeing the anxious appearance of the steward, Xiao An frowned and asked.

"Chief, General Xi sent someone to bring news that there were many warships outside the city, with the banner of Zhenguo Gong on them.

At this moment, General Xi is leading the sailor to confront which major general..."

When the steward spoke, he kept gasping for breath, obviously knowing that the matter was urgent, and he didn't dare to delay on the road.

Hearing what the steward said, Xiao An's eyes couldn't help but stare, and he didn't confirm it with the steward.

He knew that the steward would not dare to joke about such a thing, so he waved his hand and motioned for him to go down.

Xuanyuan Yi, who was originally in deep thought, also came back to his senses at this time.

Because he was thinking about things just now, Xuanyuan Yi didn't hear what the previous steward said, and saw Xiao An, who was signaling his subordinates to leave at this moment, with a sad face, so he couldn't help asking:

"Xiao An, what's wrong?"

"Back to the prince, which major general is here, and he is confronting General Xi on the river at the moment. Xiao An said with a bitter face.

After hearing Xiao An's words, Xuanyuan Yi muttered to himself:

"Is it already here?"
