"Count the casualties, reorganize the soldiers in each camp, and who are the commanders guarding the three passes? Behead them first!" Gongsun Qiu's eyes contained endless anger, and he threatened to behead them.

In his opinion, the defenders of the three passes must have neglected their duties, which allowed the enemy to slip in. Today's humiliation must not be allowed to pass. He must vigorously reorganize the military and lead his troops all the way to Qinghe County.

"Third, fourth, and sixth, the three of you will immediately go to the third pass to defend it. If the enemy easily breaks in again, then jump into the river and commit suicide!"

Gongsun Qiu issued orders, which made the three people's faces, which were already ugly, turn even darker.

Send us to guard the three passes?

Who knows how many warships the enemy has. If there are really ten or eight of them coming, then they don’t have to guard them and can just let them pass, okay?

Although the three men were dissatisfied, they could not disobey Gongsun Qiu's order in front of so many people, so they immediately obeyed the order and left.

To put it bluntly, if things are really impossible, they can just run away. After all, they all have extraordinary strength, so they can't make a living anywhere.

After sending everyone back, Gongsun Qiu and Long Er returned to the camp. They sat in front of the map in silence for a long time before they slightly digested the negative emotions of the battle.

After calming down, the two realized that the strength of Qinghe County should not be underestimated. What they should consider now is not how to attack Qinghe County, but how to set up heavy defenses to prevent today's incident from happening again.

After the two men discussed the map for a while, they talked about the sharp knife attack they had just suffered.

"That knife seemed to have a soul attack attached. I still feel the pain in my soul." Long Er touched his legs with lingering fear.

"Fortunately, that guy was under a lot of pressure after swinging the knife, otherwise, we would be in trouble today." Gongsun Qiu recalled carefully and found that after the young man swung the knife, he no longer used any powerful attacking moves. It seemed that this move consumed a lot of energy.

Even so, being able to kill a sixth-level warrior with one sword is enough to be proud of.

After analyzing and comparing the strength gap between the two sides, they discovered that they were at a disadvantage?

"Don't start a war for now. We should keep a low profile. Also, continue to send out spies to find out the situation. Find out how many naval forces they have and how many warships they have. Those spies before were useless. They actually missed such important information!"

Although the two were unwilling to give up and wanted to rush to Qinghe County immediately, from a rational point of view, it was not appropriate to start a war now.

In fact, it’s really not the fault of the spies sent by Shuibo County. This shipyard doesn’t look like a shipyard at all, and the people of Xiaofengzhuang acted very secretly. They didn’t reveal their true appearance to everyone until the warship was launched.

Moreover, Chen Changfan took advantage of the fact that the warship had just been run-in and went straight upstream to the Shuibo County fortress, leaving no one able to react.

Soldiers are valuable and quick.

The reason why we were able to win this battle was entirely due to the word "speed".

"Not only do we need to strengthen our defenses, we also need to build large ships. Otherwise, we'll be at a disadvantage in a fight. If that warship rams us, six or seven of our boats will be destroyed. If we had large ships, we wouldn't be in such a mess!"

"Building a large ship takes time, so let's arrange it as soon as possible."

The two reached a consensus.

The construction period of a large ship is very long. I guess Qinghe County has only built one warship, so it must have cost a lot of money.

In a horizontal comparison, our military strength is still superior, but our high-end combat power has been damaged, so the advantage is not great.

"It seems that it's time to go to Ziquan." Gongsun Qiu looked at Long Er, who was slightly startled and then nodded slowly.

Drinking purple spring water can greatly increase the strength of the body, but it also has a certain possibility of becoming a demon.

Both of them had drunk purple spring water and believed that they could resist the toxicity in the spring water. They planned to use this method to quickly improve their strength.

Du Dagui had also drunk Purple Spring Water before, but the Purple Spring Water he drank at that time was not pure, so his strength did not increase much, and he was easily transformed into a demon.

But the purple spring water that Gongsun Qiu and Long Er mentioned is naturally to go deep into the purple spring, obtain the purest water source, and quickly improve their strength.

……

Wuwuwu——

The ironclad ship sailed down the river and returned to the garrison dock before dark.

The soldiers were very excited and thrilled after returning triumphantly.

You know, the water bandits in Shuibo County are notorious, and even the imperial court is unwilling to encircle and suppress them. But today they actually killed one of them.

I have to say that this ironclad ship is really impressive. The pirates' black-sailed boats are as fragile as paper in front of this giant ship. When the giant ship rams into it, it is crushed with ease. It feels so good!

The returning soldiers excitedly shared today's water battle with their fellow townsmen in the garrison. Their faces flushed with excitement and they spitted all over the place. The fellow soldiers were stunned by what they heard and they wanted to slap their thighs, wondering why they didn't join the attack at that time.

Of course, there were also casualties among the sailors in Qinghe County, but compared with the casualties among the pirates in Shuibo County, they were simply not worth mentioning. This is also one of the reasons why these soldiers are so proud.

"Also, our leader Chen attacked the enemy stronghold and remained fearless in the face of three extraordinary enemies. He directly injured two and killed one with a single blow! He was so fierce!"

Chen Changfan, who had extraordinary hearing, could naturally catch words like this. He just smiled faintly and ignored them.

It's just basic exercise, no need to make a fuss.

Only then did he remember that there was a corpse of a sixth-level transcendent lying on the deck. Out of professional habit, he skillfully went up to touch the corpse and unexpectedly found an exquisite wooden box.

"Zhu Gang is clearly a big, strong man, so why is he carrying such a gaudy box?"

Chen Changfan muttered something, opened the box casually, and his face was immediately brightened.

A round bead as big as a child's fist was lying in the box.

"Night Pearl, this big? This is the first time I've seen one."

Chen Changfan put away the night pearl, a smile on his face, "Today is Luoluo's third birthday, so this is a perfect gift for her."

Chen Changfan waved his hand, and the dragon immediately stepped forward.

"Little Jiaojiao, how is it? Is there any dragon energy in Shuibo County?"

Chen Changfan's surprise attack on Shuibo County was on the one hand to contain the local people, and on the other hand to explore the situation of dragon energy.

The dragon nodded, obviously discovering something.

"Not bad!"

Chen Changfan was about to ride away on his dragon when he suddenly noticed several eager gazes from behind him.

Only then did he remember that Xiao Suchen and others were standing behind him. When they saw him coming, they immediately spoke respectfully.

"Alliance Leader Chen."

"Alliance leader."

"Alliance leader..."

Uh, why are these people so polite all of a sudden?

In the past, Xiao Suchen and Zhou Xing both called him "Brother Changfan" and "Brother Changfan", and Yue Lingfei even called him by his full name. Why did they all voluntarily change their words now?
