Liu Cong arrived outside Wuchang City and ran straight to the dock without entering the city.

At this time, Liang Zhu'er had already gone to the front station and went to the dock to inform Gan Ning that Liu Zhizhong had arrived. Gan Ning was very happy after hearing this and hurriedly led his generals to leave the dock and come to greet him.

Gan Ning was in the navy and had long heard that Liu Cong led troops to attack Soochow and won consecutive battles.

He pursued Sun Quan outside Wuchang City to Niutoushan and Yupu Beach, and defeated Zhou Yu's tens of thousands of troops in a battle. Within two months of sending troops, he occupied Wuchang, the important town of Soochow. He led his troops through the Pingdingshan Grand Canyon and directed his troops towards Chai Chai.

Mulberry City.

Whenever Gan Ning heard about Liu Cong's victory, he would drink wine and congratulate the generals. During the banquet, all the generals praised Liu Cong's abilities, saying that Liu Cong was a rare and powerful general in the world since ancient times.

Famous generals such as Han Xin, the Overlord of Chu, are also far behind."

Therefore, all the generals of Ganning Navy admired Liu Cong from the bottom of their hearts. At this time, they simply regarded Liu Cong as a god, "How could he have such a great ability unless King Kong, the god of heaven, reincarnated into this life."

In those two years, the word "great savior" did not exist in the Chinese vocabulary. If this word had existed long ago, the soldiers and people of Jingzhou would have added it to Liu Cong's name by this time.

Besides, Gan Ning is also a good general. He is not only a good general, he is simply an outstanding general.

By the way, to say that Gan Ning is an outstanding general means that he is outstanding in the navy.

In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, only the Jingzhou Navy and the Soochow Navy became truly large-scale naval forces.

The strength of these two naval divisions has been mentioned before. Generally speaking, the Jingzhou Navy has an advantage over the Soochow Navy in terms of the number of ships and sailors.

Let's put it this way, in terms of overall strength, the Soochow Navy accounts for half of the Jingzhou Navy.

As for the famous and powerful Cao Cao, although he occupies most of the world, he doesn't even have a decent navy team at this time.

Cao Cao later dug the Xuanwu Pond in Linzhang to train his navy, but it was just a whim.

From this point of view, there were only two decent naval forces in the world at that time, one was the Jingzhou Navy led by Gan Ning, and the other was the Soochow Navy led by Zhou Yu.

It can be seen that Gan Ning and Zhou Yu were really outstanding naval generals.

Such outstanding generals are usually arrogant and look down on others. Needless to say, Zhou Yu looked down on Gan Ning, and Gan Ning certainly looked down on Zhou Yu.

As for Gan Ning, he not only looked down on Zhou Yu, but he probably didn't even take Sun Quan into his eyes. Not only Sun Quan, who among the generals in the world could he look down on?

He once said this in front of dozens of generals under his tent: "When it comes to water warfare, I don't admire anyone! Isn't Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai the three heroes of the Soochow Navy? Let them come over and give it a try! I

Let the three of them go up at the same time! Hahahaha, after one battle, if I don't knock the three of them down to the bottom of the river and become bastards, then I, Gan Ning, will be incompetent."

However, Gan Ning admired Liu Cong. This was real admiration, not because Liu Cong was his immediate boss, but because Liu Cong was capable.

Liu Cong will predict, and the prediction is absolutely accurate;

Liu Cong would mobilize the army and civilians to plant mulberry and raise silkworms to reclaim wasteland and farmland, which Gan Ning could not even imagine;

When Liu Cong led his troops in battle, he always came up with strange plans. His plans were always successful and he had no plans left.

All these things about Liu Cong made Gan Ning admire him.

Even when playing with women, Gan Ning felt ashamed: "Actually, well, to be honest, Liu Cong and Liu Zhizhong look not much different from me, Gan Ning. Well, they are not much better than me. They are a few centimeters taller than me.

He looks about the same as me.

To be honest, I, Gan Ning, am also a handsome and romantic man, one of the fisherman beauties on both sides of the river. Who has never loved me? As soon as we met and exchanged a few words, they were all willing to sleep with me.

But, damn! What kind of beauties did Liu Cong and Liu Zhizhong play?

Yuan Ying, the daughter of the great general in the world.

When she was living in a restaurant, she hid her sharp weapons to protect herself and performed her art without selling her body. Many dignitaries and playboys came to coax her. In the end, Yuan Ying willingly became Liu Cong's second wife.

Cai Fengfei, Cai Mao's niece, her aunt personally acted as a matchmaker to marry her niece to Liu Cong.

I Gan Ning dare not even think about such a good thing.

I also heard that Mrs. Cai immediately selected two excellent maids to give Liu Cong to experience life after Liu Cong and her niece got engaged.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk, have I, Gan Ning, ever enjoyed such a good thing?"

Although Liu Cong played with these high-end women, one reason was that Liu Cong was from a nobler background than Gan Ning, and Gan Ning also knew it.

However, Gan Ning would always use other arguments to prove that Liu Cong was better at playing with women than him: "Liu Qi and Liu Cong have the same background, and they are the eldest son of Liu. In terms of conditions, they are definitely superior to Liu Cong. But, how come Mrs. Cai is so good at playing with women?"

Not marrying Cai Fengfei to Liu Qi? Also, why didn't Yuan Ying take the initiative to fall into Liu Qi's arms, sleep with him, and become his second wife?

This shows that even though Liu Cong and Liu Zhizhong are young, they are talented! They are talented in leading troops to fight, managing the country, and playing with women. They are all better than me, Gan Ning! I cannot accept it."

Therefore, Gan Ning admired Liu Cong completely.

Now, Liu Cong and Liu Zhizhong are here. Gan Ning knows that Liu Zhizhong is here to guide him in conquering Huangzhou and Luchun.

Gan Ning also knew the importance of conquering Huangzhou County and Luchun County: "These two cities are the bridgeheads of Soochow in Jiangbei, and their status is very important. If I capture these two cities, it will be equivalent to cutting off Chaisang and Wu soldiers."

Left arm."

Therefore, before Liu Cong came, Gan Ning had already seen the troop deployment and city defense situation of these two cities and had a clear reconnaissance. But when Liu Cong came over to approve the battle plan, Gan Ning immediately started fighting.

"I will complete the task successfully and satisfy the lord.

Well, since I took refuge with the lord, I, Gan Ning, have not really shown my hand on the battlefield!"

At this time, Gan Ning welcomed Liu Cong into the dock.

This Wuchang Wharf is not big.

Before Liu Cong regained Wuchang, the city of Wuchang served as a barrier to the west of Soochow, and Sun Quan sent his own capable general Ding Feng and Xu Sheng to garrison it.

At that time, there were not many Soochow ships moored at the wharf. Because Sun Quan knew that Jingzhou Navy was powerful, he transferred most of the ships at Wuchang Wharf to Poyang Lake to garrison them.

When Liu Cong regained Wuchang, he knew that the Wuchang Wharf had little value, so after regaining Wuchang, he did not even come to inspect the wharf.

Now, Gan Ning has moved the main force of the navy to station at Wuchang Wharf.

After Liu Cong arrived at the pier, he glanced at the river surface of the pier and suddenly became excited and heroic.

On the water surface of the pier, more than a dozen three-masted giant ships were moored majestically on the water of the river. Hundreds of medium-sized warships were crowded together and moored next to the giant ships.

Countless sampans came and went between the giant ship and the dock. On the dock, Jingzhou sailors came and went, all busy working.

Next to the ship, a river of spring water flows eastward in mighty force.

On the river, in the sky, and among the ships, countless waterbirds were flying up and down.

The masts of more than a dozen three-masted warships pointed straight into the sky, as if they were trying to pierce the sky.

This is the first time Liu Cong has seen such a majestic navy fleet since he time traveled. Even before he time traveled, he had never seen it once, so he felt excited, heroic, sighed, and secretly shouted: "I didn't expect Liu Cong to

Cong traveled through time and managed to get to this point! The most powerful fleet in the world is under my control. Hahaha, I will live up to the mission given to me by the times!"

When Liu Cong saw this huge fleet, he began to fantasize. He thought, a three-masted sailing ship carrying thousands of people, haha, this is the only fleet in the world, not just China, but which country in the world now

There is no such advanced ship technology!

Huh, country? This is the eleventh year of Jian'an, 206 AD. According to what I learned about history before traveling through time, most areas on the earth were still in a period of ignorance and uncivilization.

Well, the Euphrates, Tigris and Tigris civilizations just emerged less than two thousand years ago. The Nile civilization basically happened at the same time as the Mesopotamia. The Ganges civilization and the Yellow River civilization were not separated by much time.

Leaving aside the time of the rise of various civilizations, it was around 207 AD. No civilized area on the earth has ever had such a huge fleet like Jingzhou!

Three-masted sailing ship, a giant ship, there is no such thing in the world!

With this fleet, I, Liu Cong, can conquer the world. When we set out from here, we can avoid the typhoon-prone season.

Just from the mouth of the Yangtze River.

However, the current marine hydrological data is incomplete and compass navigation technology has not yet been used, so it is not easy to conquer the world by sailing."

Liu Cong felt a little embarrassed when he thought of this. However, when he thought of his own era, and of the later voyages of Zheng He and Magellan and Columbus, he immediately felt confident and his heart beat rapidly. "Zheng He was earlier than Magellan."

, earlier than Columbus, they, Zheng He, Columbus and Magellan sailed on ships, weren't they also sailing ships?

Our sailing technology has now reached a mature level. Zheng He and others can sail, why can't I now?

At that time, they only relied on sailing boats to explore their way forward, and did not have compass navigation technology. Didn't Magellan circle the earth once?

Alas, no, I am afraid that when Magellan opened a global route, the Chinese compass had already spread to Europe, right? Compass navigation technology has been maturely used.

Damn it! Why didn’t I bring a compass with me when I traveled through time? I forgot, I forgot. Hahahahahaha!”

Liu Cong suddenly laughed.

Liu Cong burst into laughter, which made Gan Ning, Liang Zhuer and others very confused. They all stared at Liu Cong with misty eyes.

Liu Cong knew that he had lost his composure, but he was reluctant to give up his fantasy, so he ordered Gan Ning: "You go to the Chinese army's tent to prepare first and prepare to report the battle plan. I want to wait here for a while and enjoy the view of the great river.
