Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

"The enemy must have transported warships from the wormhole. Otherwise, how could our vanguard be defeated in just half an hour?" Tai Shici said.

"Cough cough."

The generals in charge of commanding this battle all bowed their heads secretly.

"And, what do you think?" Xu Ding asked.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I think it may be the craftsmen of the Western Shang Empire. During this year, they transformed the original warships in Jiangdong to have this large battleship."

"This is a good thing for us."

"If we can capture their warships, let's study them carefully. Maybe we can build them too. It will be easier to control the Yangtze River and the Yellow River in the future."

Jia Xu's words can be regarded as reaching Xu Ding's heart.

Chapter 876 Raiding Jiangdong

Capturing the enemy's warships and using them for yourself is the key to victory.

"Mr. He, it's easy to say. How can we capture those large battleships?" Tai Shici didn't have a clue.

"If we were on land, we could still fight to the death. But on the river, our combat effectiveness is not as good as an ordinary navy in Jiangdong. If we really want to fight, we will definitely be at a disadvantage." Zhang Liao said.

"Cough cough."

Xu Ding coughed a few times, pressed his hands and said, "You all sit down first."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

People take their seats.

Xu Ding said: "As early as last year, I discussed with Feng Xiao that we must strengthen our navy. Only with a strong navy can we control the Yangtze River and the Yellow River."

"I was still thinking about how to strengthen the navy."

"The emergence of large battleships is an opportunity for us to further strengthen the strength of the navy."

Tai Shici asked: "Does Your Majesty have a way to defeat the enemy army on the river?"

Xu Ding said: "Of course I didn't. But I believe that General Gan Ning will definitely be able to do it. I have sent someone to send an order to him to join the battle here in two days. At that time, Gan Ning will be responsible for defeating the enemy in front of us." .”

All the generals present were familiar with Gan Ning.

As early as in Qingzhou, Gan Ning commanded the water army and ran across the Yellow Sea, with great power.

But

Since the invasion of the Western Merchant Empire, he has lost consecutive battles.

Therefore, both Chao Zhongwu had doubts about Gan Ning's ability.

"General Gan's navy lacks weapons and equipment, can it defeat the navy of the Western Shang Empire?" Tai Shici asked.

The rest of the generals also shook their heads secretly.

Obviously don't believe it.

Xu Ding said: "You know that Feng Xiao was in Fancheng, why was he able to hold on for several months without being breached by the [-] enemy troops in Jingzhou? It is because Gan Ning's navy controlled Neijiang and prevented the enemy troops from breaking through."

"what?"

Everyone couldn't believe it.

Gan Ning really blocked the [-] enemy troops?

"Gan Ning's navy has already been equipped with a brigade of equipment and a large number of artillery. Compared with the past, his combat effectiveness is several times, even dozens of times stronger. I believe that he will be able to make great achievements."

Xu Ding instructed Jia Xu directly.

Prepare guns and ammunition for Gan Ning.

When Gan Ning arrives, add it immediately.

Then storm the enemy's large battleships.

"Yes."

Jia Xu took the order.

Gan Ning soon received the imperial edict from Xu Ding.

Let him listen to Li Yang.

He controlled the Neijiang River to prevent the enemy troops from Jingzhou from crossing the river.Just the day before yesterday, I knew that the enemy army in Jingzhou had already gone to Nanchang, and started a fierce battle with Guo Jia's troops in Nanchang.

In other words.

He no longer has to control Neijiang.

If the enemy retreats, it is impossible to attack Fancheng again.

That evening.

Gan Ning led the water army of the headquarters, about [-] warships, and sailed towards Li Yang.

Traveling with the wind, again from top to bottom.

Sailing speed is extremely fast.

He traveled day and night and traveled for a day and a half.

At noon the next day, we arrived at Beihe River in Licheng.

Gan Ning ordered the army to build a water village on the spot.

He took a boat and went to Licheng to meet Xu Ding.

"Xingba, it's been a tough journey." Xu Ding welcomed Gan Ning into the living room.

In the living room stood Jia Xu and Tai Shici.

After everyone said hello.

Xu Ding said: "I called you here this time because I have an important task to entrust to you to do."

"Please order, Your Majesty."

Xu Ding signaled everyone to take their seats, and said with a light smile, "We successively recovered Huainan, Shouchun, and Hefei, and then repelled the tens of thousands of enemy troops who rescued Yangzhou. We decided to cross the Yangtze River and completely wipe out the troops sent by the Western Shang Empire to Jiangdong. But , The enemy has a navy lurking in the middle of the Yangtze River, and as long as we pass by, we will be attacked."
