With these 30,000 gold sails, Liu Feng had the capital to fight by water.

Coupled with Gan Ning and Zhou Yu, a water thief who has been making a living in the water for more than ten years, he is unrivaled in the Yangtze River and can be called the king of water battles.

Although the other has mediocre martial arts skills, he is a natural master tactician and battle commander. He is familiar with all kinds of military arts, especially the tactics of water warfare, which is unparalleled in the world.

With troops, commanders and generals, plus the design concept proposed by Liu Feng himself, and the keel warship built by Longcheng's transferred shipbuilder, the Dragon Kingdom's navy can definitely become the most powerful navy today. division.

Therefore, after the training of the Thirty Thousand Jinfan Navy was completed, Guo Jia, the left prime minister of the Dragon Kingdom, suggested to the Dragon Emperor Liu Feng:"Your Majesty, now that our country has elite naval forces, why not use them to attack other countries as soon as possible?

I have a question With this plan, Xuzhou can be conquered effortlessly."

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Liu Feng suddenly became interested and asked,"If you have any clever ideas for Fengxiao, just tell me."

Guo Jia took a sip of the wine and revealed With a satisfied smile, he then said:"Build the plank road openly and visit Chen Cang secretly.

Your Majesty can first send Gong Jin and Xing Ba with a navy of thirty thousand brocade sails to set off from the state of Lu along the waterway and arrive near Zhitan County in Xuzhou Prefecture to hide.

Since His Majesty has been in the north and has never participated in a water battle, the Wei State will definitely not deliberately guard against waterways.

Subsequently, His Majesty sent Qingzhou Taishi Ziyi and Xu Yuanzhi to lead an army to attack Xuzhou from the land.

Ziyi led the army. Starting from the land route, they will definitely be discovered by the Xuzhou defenders soon, so they will definitely concentrate all their forces to fight Ziyi." After

Guo Jia finished speaking, Liu Feng reacted and said:"In this way, Ziyi and Yuan All the soldiers and horses along the way are just a cover. The 30,000 naval troops of Gong Jin and Xing Ba are really effective." After hearing Liu Feng's guess, Guo Jia smiled and said:"Your Majesty is wise, as long as If Gongjin and Xingba's navy can find a good place to hide, it will be difficult for the Xuzhou defenders to find it.

After their Ziyi army has delayed the defenders, Jinfan's navy will turn from darkness to light, and they will be able to catch them by surprise. Tan County was captured in one fell swoop."

Liu Feng was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately appointed Zhou Yu as the commander-in-chief and Gan Ning as the general. They commanded the 30,000 Jinfan navy to sail from Yanzhou Lu State to Xishui, Donghai County, and raided Xuzhou Prefecture through Xishui. Tan County.

The warships of the Dragon Kingdom have been upgraded several times. Now they not only have a keel-structured bottom, but also a human-powered pedal power system.

In addition to stabilizing the hull and preventing it from being overturned by waves, the keel structure can also better reduce water resistance, greatly increasing the speed of the ship.

The human-powered pedals are similar to the multi-person bicycles of later generations. They use human power to pedal the pedals on the boat to drive the propeller under the boat to rotate and move the boat forward.

With such advanced technology and the ability to open the sails when the wind is favorable, the Dragon Kingdom's warships are much faster than other ships.

Zhou Yu and Gan Ning led a navy of 30,000 gold sails from Lu State in the morning and arrived at Xishui in the evening.

However, since the Jinfan Navy had a total of 30,000 people, even the Dragon Kingdom's improved new-type building ships had to dispatch a full 20 ships to transport all 30,000 people.

The warships were not only numerous in number, but also five stories high. They were also very large. If they got close to Tan County, they would be discovered. Therefore, in order to deceive others, Zhou Yu did not let the army dock immediately, but hid it in the surrounding reeds. stand up.

After nightfall, Zhou Yu ordered the warship to dock. After all the soldiers of the Jinfan Navy came ashore, a special person drove the warship back to the original reeds and hid it.

The thirty thousand Jinfan Army also dispersed, each finding a place to hide in the woods or grass.

At the same time, Zhou Yu sent a large number of scouts to Tan County and surrounding counties to inquire about the news. He waited for Tai Shici's army to arrive and then quietly entered Tan County when the Xuzhou garrison went to fight.

At the same time that Zhou Yu and Gan Ning set off, Liu Feng wrote a letter in his own hand and sent it to Taishi Ci with a red-blooded dragon rider riding a golden eagle, telling him Guo Jia's entire plan.

The golden eagle was extremely fast and reached Qingzhou in an hour.

After Taishi Ci read the letter, he informed Xu Shu of Liu Feng's order. Then, Taishi Ci immediately led 3,000 longbowmen and ordered 30,000 Dragon Kingdom troops to attack Xuzhou with Xu Shu as the military advisor.

On Xu Shu's suggestion, Taishi Ci led his army to launch a fierce attack on Langya Kingdom at the junction of Xuzhou and Qingzhou.

The governor of Xuzhou in Wei State was Cheng Yu. When Taishi Ci's army appeared near Langya Kingdom, Cheng Yu discovered it immediately and organized troops to go to Langya Kingdom to resist.

Although Taishi Ci's 30,000 Dragon Kingdom army was not a high-level unit, it was also an elite division after being trained by Taishi Ci. Although they did not have an advantage in numbers when fighting against the Xuzhou defenders, they were able to resist it with Taishi Ci's command. other side.

At the same time, 3,000 longbowmen fired thousands of arrows from the rear. The extremely long range shocked Cheng Yu, who was commanding the rear of the Xuzhou Army. The soldiers around him tried their best to block the flying arrows, and only then did Cheng Yu create a opportunity to escape from the range of the longbowmen.

At the same time, Zhou Yu and Gan Ning, who were lurking outside Tan County, immediately received news from the scouts they sent out. They learned that Cheng Yu had dispatched all the Xuzhou garrison to Langya to resist Tai Shici's attack.

Moreover, the war in Langya has reached a stalemate at this time, and Cheng Yu will definitely have no time to take care of anything else in a short period of time.

So Zhou Yu seized the opportunity and gave an order for Gan Ning to lead the Jinfan Army to raid Tan County, the prefecture's capital.

Since all the Xuzhou garrison's attention was focused on the Langya Kingdom, they never expected that enemy troops would go directly from the waterway to the hinterland of Xuzhou. Therefore, Gan Ning and the 30,000 Jinfan Army unexpectedly attacked Tan County City directly.

Although the Jinfan Army was a naval force, it had been selected by Gan Ning from the ordinary army of the Dragon Kingdom before this, so its combat effectiveness on land was not weak at all.

Coupled with a top-notch general like Gan Ning, Jinfan's army captured Tan County effortlessly.

At this time, Cheng Yu's army, which was still in Langya Kingdom, was shaken when it learned that Tan County, the prefecture's rule, had been captured. Cheng Yu had no choice but to lead his army south to Pengcheng Kingdom and stationed in Pengcheng.

At the same time, due to Xuzhou being cut off from Donghai County by Gan Ning and Cheng Yu's retreat, the Langya Kingdom was unable to withstand the attack of the long archers and was eventually defeated.
