Lord of the Earth

Xia Tian opened his mouth and the entire Eastern Wu Dynasty showed a look of surprise on their faces.

"What? Did I hear you right? A city!"

"A city must have more than 100,000 people... How could there be such a huge warship?"

Not to mention Zhou Tai and Taishi Ci, even Zhou Yu was surprised when he heard this.

After all, as the admiral of the navy, he knew very well that warships were nothing within the normal range.

But the bigger the ship, the smaller the warship, the more difficult it is to build!
Because ships that are too small cannot be equipped with a large amount of equipment and personnel, cannot be used for military purposes, and do not have the ability to sail in the ocean.

And when the ship reaches a certain limit, the difficulty will increase by more than ten times with each upgrade!
After all, the larger the size, the higher the requirements for the quality of the materials.

Apart from anything else, the "keel" needed for shipbuilding alone is a huge problem.

The "war tower ships" of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, because they were "alive", could be developed from small "boats" to medium-sized "warships" and then to super-large "tower ships".

But in the end it is also limited by the grade of the "ship spirit" itself!

Today, the most powerful warship in the entire Eastern Wu Dynasty is this "flagship".

Its "ship spirit" belongs to the fifth realm of transcendence, has quasi-saint level cultivation, and has a gold rating, but being able to accommodate 30,000 people is already the limit!
It is hard to imagine how big a warship like the one of the Qianxia Dynasty that can carry 100,000 troops is.

"Strictly speaking, I picked up some bargains. The warship named Mirage was originally built by the First Emperor with the whole country's strength for his own search for immortals... Later, by chance, it was acquired by our Qianxia Dynasty!"

"Seriously speaking, when it comes to building warships, our Qianxia Dynasty is definitely not as professional as the Dongwu Dynasty. We still need to ask Dongwu for advice..."

Although this sentence intimidated the Jiangdong hero, Xia Tian was humble in his words.

The "Mirage" was originally a "temporary palace" prepared by Qin Shihuang for his journey to the east in search of immortals and the elixir of immortality. Its area is comparable to that of a small city and can withstand any storm. It was built jointly by Gongshu Jia and Yin-Yang Master.

After entering the Eternal Land and turning into a "wonderful object", it also possessed the additional ability to "grow". Now, almost half a year has passed, and its size has become very large, enough to accommodate the daily life and living of 100,000 people!
If it is used solely to transport troops, even 300,000 or 500,000 people can be transported. The carrying capacity of one ship is comparable to the "navy" of the entire Eastern Wu Dynasty!
In terms of shipbuilding skills, the Qianxia Dynasty itself was not bad.

This is because both the Yin-Yang School and the Gongshu School are now subordinates of the Qianxia Dynasty, and even with the additional personnel from the Mohist Mechanical City, the combination of these three is enough to create a powerful warship!
However, shipbuilding is different from building a house. Designing a truly powerful warship will undoubtedly take a lot of effort.

However, the Qianxia Dynasty lacked the time to accumulate slowly on its own.

In contrast, as a prosperous dynasty mainly engaged in naval warfare, Dongwu had very mature warship manufacturing technology.

Especially these alien "ship spirits" that can merge with warships are quite attractive to Xia Tian!

Because the larger the warship, the more people are needed to operate it.

You know, the daily operation of "Mirage" alone requires tens of thousands of people.

After all, that "dragon whale" is just a spirit of the object, and the entire "mirage" is not strictly speaking a "living thing" in the true sense.

The "war ships" of the Eastern Wu Dynasty are of a "different species" that can not only be cultivated but also have the ability to reproduce.

If it can be combined with the power of the "Yuanchen Secret Realm and Marrow Washing Blood Pool" of the Qianxia Dynasty, it will definitely be possible to quickly develop an extremely powerful navy!

"The King of Qin swept across the world, looking so majestic! He waved his sword to cut through the floating clouds, and all the princes came to the west... He shot sea fish with a crossbow, and the long whale was towering. His forehead and nose were like the Five Mountains, and he raised waves and spewed clouds and thunder..."

"I originally thought these poems were just legends, but I didn't expect that 'mirages' really existed. I feel that Qinglian must have seen the dragon boat of the First Emperor with his own eyes, which is why he wrote such magnificent poems!"

While Zhou Yu was reciting the poem, he glanced at the drunk Li Bai next to him again!
"General Xia is too modest! Although Dongwu has some experience in shipbuilding, the Mirage owned by the Qianxia Dynasty is more powerful than any warship of Dongwu!"

"After this matter is settled, we can have an exchange of ideas on shipbuilding. I think both sides will benefit greatly..."

Then, he picked up a teacup on the boat and said with a smile.

"By then, I can go meet Kong Ming..."

Then Zhou Yu turned the topic to Zhuge Liang.

His eyes suddenly seemed a bit sharp.

After all, whether in history or in the novels, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu were in a "competitive" relationship!
Although they respect each other, they are still "enemies" to a greater extent.

Especially in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, every time Zhou Yu's strategy was seen through and resolved by Zhuge Liang. Even the achievements that originally belonged to Zhou Yu in history were given to Zhuge Liang by Luo Guanzhong!
Since Yu is born, how can Liang be born!
Even if Zhou Yu was not as narrow-minded and petty as he is portrayed in the novel, he could not help but feel resentful.

"Kong Ming has a keen eye for talent, and he also masters the art of Qimen Dunjia. He can see the will of heaven and choose the Qianxia Dynasty. It can be seen that the ruler of the Qianxia Dynasty must be a dragon among men!"

However, Zhou Yu did not show any obvious emotions, and even praised Xia Tian's "original form" for a while.

"Gongjin is right... I have heard many people in your country talk about your majesty's deeds with pride. I feel that you are not inferior to Emperor Gaozu of Han and Overlord..."

Lu Su also had many words of praise.

Well, when Zhuge Liang talked to him before, he just said that Xia Tian was comparable to the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period in ancient times, Qi Heng and Jin Wen... Now, he has become "Emperor Gaozu the Overlord".

I think by the time I meet the two brothers of the Sun family, they will probably be on par with the "Qin Emperor and Han Emperor"!

It has to be said that people like Lu Su, who speak well and have a good personality, are indeed good at acting as welcoming envoys and making guests feel comfortable.

"So that's how it is. At that time, Kong Ming was actually invited by Mr. Wenhe himself to enter the Land of Eternity?"

As the ship traveled, the two sides chatted about everything under the sun and had a very pleasant conversation.

After learning that Jia Xu was also in the Qianxia Dynasty, and even that Zhuge Liang was invited by him, Zhou and Lu looked at each other with a look of sudden realization.

Originally, both of them were a little confused. Considering Zhuge Kongming's loyalty to Shu Han, how could he leave so easily?
Now that I know that Jia Xu contributed to this, I understand a little bit.

Throughout the Three Kingdoms era, when it comes to wisdom and strategy, Zhuge Kongming may be the undisputed leader, but when it comes to social skills, the old fox Jia Xu is number one!

It must be something he said to Zhuge Liang at the beginning that changed Kong Ming's mind.

But, that’s okay.

This indirectly and significantly weakened the power of Shu Han and took away some of its luck.

Otherwise, the gap between Dongwu and Shuhan might be even greater! "However, Jia Wenhe is also in the Qianxia Dynasty, and even has more experience than Zhuge Kongming... I don't know whether this move by the second young master is a blessing or a curse!"

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were many counselors.

But the most famous group of people undoubtedly know each other very well!
Originally, the presence of Zhuge Liang in the Qianxia Dynasty made Zhou Yu somewhat wary.

After all, Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou but never returned it, which triggered a series of incidents later. Today, there is still a "poisonous scholar" named Jia Xu in the Qianxia Dynasty, so we must be more cautious when dealing with him!
"Hmm? Something's wrong with the water ahead..."

Both sides had their own thoughts but appeared to be very enthusiastic. The war ships were getting closer and closer to the "Stone City".

At this moment, a huge black vortex suddenly appeared on the water surface ahead. Even the nearly 500-meter-long "war ship" was pulled by a huge force and tilted towards the center of the vortex!

"No, what's going on?"

"It's an enemy attack!"

"Don't panic, quickly form a formation!"

However, faced with such changes,

The personnel on the warships did not panic, even the ordinary soldiers were calm, and Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai led their troops quickly.
"In my Dongwu Dynasty, there are two types of soldiers rated by Jade White. Their strength is enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with saints, and they have even fought against saints of foreign races head-on..."

Zhou Yu introduced to Xia Tian.

As a dynasty with great fortune, Eastern Wu might indeed be inferior to Shu Han and Cao Wei, but it was by no means a weakling.

In fact, the entire Eastern Wu Dynasty had two "super soldiers" at the jade white level. This is why, when there were no other saints except Sun Jian who relied on the blessing of national destiny, the Eastern Wu Dynasty was able to compete with the "Lilong Dynasty" which had many saints!
As the most core "navy" in the Eastern Wu camp, Yu Baiping is naturally the best choice.

In fact, this type of troops is not only good at naval battles, but is also very powerful in land battles.

Because this navy is the "Danyang soldiers".

Danyang is a place with dangerous mountains and strong people. They are good at martial arts and fighting, and have high morale and strength. It is a place with elite soldiers. Since ancient times, Danyang's elite soldiers have been the target of many forces' enthusiastic recruitment...

There was an "elite army of Danyang" in the Qianxia Dynasty. They were the "Danyang warriors" under Li Ling who had fought against 80,000 Huns with only 5,000 of them and incurred a five-fold casualty ratio!
And this "Eastern Wu Navy" is the best among the Danyang soldiers, the "Danyang Warriors", and each soldier possesses extraordinary strength!

It can be said that it is not inferior to the five major jade-white military forces of the Qianxia Dynasty today.

Therefore, faced with such a sudden change, no one panicked. Instead, they responded quickly. About two hundred soldiers quickly adjusted their positions to form a military formation. Under the command of Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai, they formed two majestic figures of generals above the battlefield!

A man wearing red armor, as sharp as lightning, holding a bow, looking down on the world.

One of them has eight arms, holding up a shield as big as a mountain!

"Where are the rats, hiding their heads and showing their tails!"

Taishi Ci took the lead, pulling the bow in his hand and shooting arrows together with the huge "archer" in the air. The arrows turned into a thunder-like attack in the air, breaking through the void and penetrating into the "vortex" blocking the front of the warship!
Boom!

After a slight delay.

A violent force exploded, causing the vortex that was over a thousand meters in size to stagnate for a moment!

"Good! General Taishi is mighty!"

The soldiers under him had expressions of admiration on their faces.

However, as if stimulated, the huge vortex suddenly accelerated again after stopping slightly.

"Boom!"

At the same time, a large amount of river water suddenly swirled up into the sky, forming a "water tornado" connecting the sky and the ground, covering an area of ​​thousands of meters, and then moved rapidly towards the direction of the fleet.

"Well, this is it?"

Taishi Ci raised his eyebrows and his eyes became slightly solemn.

The next moment, he pulled out a spear from behind him and placed it on the bow, pointing it straight in the direction of the "water tornado"!

In the sky, the "divine general" formed by the power of the military formation also made some movements.

boom!
The next moment, the power of the military formation transformed into a huge halberd, which pierced the sky like a huge rainbow and penetrated into the huge "water tornado" fiercely!
Clang, Clang, Clang...

However, when the huge halberd came into contact with the "water tornado", it was like it was colliding violently with some metal.

Surprisingly, it disappeared so quickly!

"what is that?"

Later, everyone noticed that in this water tornado, there were a large number of birds similar to "blades" flying rapidly inside it.

Combined with the high-speed rotating "water tornado", it is like a huge "meat grinder", carrying the devastating "force of destruction" and attacking towards the "war ship"!
"Oh no! There is an 'Ice Blade Water Bird' in this tornado!"

Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai both had expressions of shock on their faces.

Ice Blade Water Bird is an extremely powerful alien creature. Each of them has the power of the seventh level of Transcendental Realm, or even quasi-supernatural level!
Its special power can transform water into extremely sharp and hard "ice blades" that are indestructible. Once besieged by it, even extraordinary creatures will find it difficult to escape.

At present, it seems that there are thousands of "Ice Blade Water Birds" in this water tornado. Even a quasi-saint would be strangled if he was caught in it.

"Jiangdong Navy, charge forward and destroy him!"

Even though Zhou Tai also commanded his soldiers to form a military formation, with his aura exuding to the extreme, and controlled the huge "eight-armed general" above his head to raise a heavy shield to resist, he was still in danger under the cutting of these "ice-blade water birds" like thousands of sharp weapons!

Thousands of alien creatures joined together to launch an attack, and even the two generals of the Eastern Wu Dynasty who were about to set foot in the Holy Land found it difficult to cope with it!
Just as it was about to break through the defense line of the "War Ship" and swallow up Lu Su, Zhou Yu, Xia Tian and others, Lu Bu, whose whole body was hidden in armor, slowly raised his head, stretched out a hand and grasped the Fang Tian Huaji!
"Suzaku!"

At this time, a noun came out of Zhou Yu's mouth.

Then, a light suddenly appeared between heaven and earth!

A huge red bird rose up from the flagship of the Eastern Wu Dynasty's navy, shining brightly across the nine heavens and ten earths, with a ray of divine power! (End of this chapter)
