The twenty warships led by Wang Yong moved very fast.

The cooperation of the oarsmen became more and more tacit, and the wind today is westerly, which is beneficial for them to catch up with the dry country grain fleet.

The warship led by Wang Yong quickly advanced towards the grain transport ship in a "》" formation.

In less than a quarter of an hour, they caught up with the grain convoy.

"My lord, I found the dry army's grain transport fleet ahead, with ten **** ships and thirty grain transport ships. They are breaking away from the **** ships and speeding up to Nanhu County!"

Wang Yong immediately ordered, "Catch up at full speed, give priority to destroying the enemy's **** ship, and then quickly chase down the grain ship and take as many prisoners as possible."

"yes."

Twenty warships pierced the lake like flying arrows, and quickly approached the grain transport fleet.

At this time, Shen He, the commander of the ten warships of the Nujiao Army, had already issued the battle order.

In short, this battle must be fought, and it will be withdrawn after a while.

You can't lose too much, and you can't lose too much.

When testing the officers and men of the Angry Dragon Army, they must have both combat effectiveness and acting skills.

The former is definitely no problem. The soldiers who came out of the imperial barracks are not weak in combat.

But acting skills are not necessarily the case, it depends on talent.

A general who is like a **** of war can certainly bring out an invincible army, but not necessarily an army with acting skills.

After studying in school for several years, they can't learn it. It is difficult for a group of soldiers who only know how to fight to show off their acting skills.

Fortunately, their audience is not picky reviewers and critics.

They don't know that this is a play, and they are also an important part of this play.

I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, just because I am in this mountain.

In the game, it is easy to make mistakes in judgment.

Wang Yong's judgment was biased, and he took the Nu Jiao Army as the **** ship of the Qian Kingdom he had encountered before.

It cannot be said that the Qianguo soldiers on the **** ship were too weak, it can only be said that they are not professional sailors, and they are still inferior to the sailors of Xu Fan's department.

And Xu Fan's navy is only a second-to-third-rate navy that has only trained and fought for a few months.

There is still a big gap in combat effectiveness with the real elite navy.

Twenty VS Ten.

Wang Yong is very confident that he can resolve the battle within a quarter of an hour, and then spend another quarter of an hour to catch up with the grain ship.

If the battle is resolved within half an hour, even if the army receives the news, it will be too late to rescue.

"Are these Gan Chinese out of their minds? They know that their warships are no match for us, but every time they send ships over for us to kill, isn't that giving us military exploits!"

"Let them give it away. It would be better to give it a few more times. Do you think you have too much military exploits?"

"Hahaha......"

The battle on the lake was basically over. With the Nu Jiao army not taking it seriously, this battle didn't have any bright spots worth describing.

Wang Yong came up with the warship, and Shen He entangled with Wang Yong while retreating, pretending to be covering the retreat of the grain ship.

Wang Yong and his soldiers didn't think there was any problem. Isn't such a reaction normal?

It would be a problem if Shen He fought him at the beginning and then retreated.

Gan Jun dared to fight us, is there an ambush ahead?

Arranging an ambush on Dongting Lake is very difficult.

Unlike on the shore, where ambush circles can be arranged using various terrains, on the lake, the opponent can be found three to five miles away.

Even if there is no telescope or watchtower, it is definitely possible to spot the enemy a mile away.

So unless there is a very, very suitable terrain, the battles on the lake are more head-to-head battles.

Although there may be more ways to fight, it is always a frontal confrontation.

The "weak" performance of Shen He's direct retreat is very consistent with his impression of Qianjun.

"Catch up, break them up, and hurry up to chase the grain ship. Our goal is grain."

Wang Yong quickly issued an order. It doesn't make much sense to sink one or two warships at this time. If two ships are sunk today, Qianguo can build four more tomorrow.

During this period of time, Xu Fan's men and women have already seen the strong manufacturing capabilities of Qianguo.

The service life of these urgently built warships will not be too long, and they will have to be decommissioned in two or three years at most.

But it is enough, at least it is enough to finish this battle. After the battle in Dongting Lake is over, these ships can still be used to train the navy.

After the training ship can't be used, it can still be used as a fishing boat after a little repair.

In the end, the fishing boat could not be made, and it could be disassembled and given to the people as firewood.

And it only takes a little manpower to make these boats, so it's worth it!

Knowing that the Qian Kingdom can quickly build warships (small, some medium-sized), Xu Fan did not pursue sinking the warships of the Qian Kingdom, but instead pursued killing the soldiers of the Qian army and plundering food.

Of course, this is also related to their less and less food.

I can only rely on Cong Ganjun to make a living.

That is to say, Shenwuwei has Yang Yuan's support behind him, otherwise Dongting County would not be able to bear the food lost every time on the lake.

The food given to Shenwuwei by the imperial court is still on the way.

Only 20,000 stone.

The ministers in the court knew that the king would not let Shenwuwei go to war hungry.

The domestic food can be transported slowly, maybe the war will end after a few times.

All the best!

As long as the war is won, Your Majesty won't care about taking out more food for influence.

Yang Yuan really thinks so, as long as he can win, it is worth spending a little more food~lightnovelpub.net~ But time can't be delayed too long, time is more precious than food.

The battle between Dongting Lake and Nanhu County has lasted for almost three months, and there are still more than ten days left.

Yang Yuan expected the war to last for three months.

In addition to Dongting Lake and Nanhu counties, other counties also began to attack Shunguo.

Shenwuwei is the main force on the southeast line, while the White Tiger Legion and Suzaku Legion are the main force on the northwest line.

The rest of the Qinglong Legion was stationed in Chenjun to guard against Qi.

The Xuanwu Army sits in Wuwei County to guard against barbarians.

Another reason why Cangyang County is not suitable as the Gyeonggi area appeared, because it is too close to the northern barbarians.

Unless Yang Yuan can kill all the barbarians or drive them to a more distant vast sea, Cangyang County may face the crisis of barbarian invasion every year.

It may not be considered a crisis, but it is indeed a kind of trouble, which will involve a lot of energy from the court.

Now the main army of the Qian Kingdom has all rushed to the four directions, but Cangyang County still retains a large number of elite troops to surround the safety of Cangyang City.

If the new capital is farther away from the border, the army guarding the capital can be reduced a lot.

The pressure on Gyeonggi will also be reduced a lot.

In order to provide supplies for hundreds of thousands of troops and the daily necessities of hundreds of thousands of people, 70% of the output of Cangyang County is concentrated in Cangyangcheng.

And this proportion is still growing rapidly.

It is estimated that the consumption of Cangyang County next year will require the support of other counties.

There is no rush to move the capital, there are still many big battles to be fought in the future.

The location of the new capital city is also debatable.

The most important thing now is to bring down Nanhu County.

With the vast Dongting Lake, Qianguo can have a qualified naval training base.

Flood dragons cannot be practiced in Xiaohe.

The first step in transforming a dragon begins with the annihilation of the Shun Kingdom Xu Fan's navy!
