God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

With the order given, the Kushan naval fleet on the outskirts began to concentrate its firepower on the permanent crossbows on land, using their powerful force to knock out those who dared to offend them.

Meanwhile, the main force of the Kushan navy began to mobilize further, accumulating strength to launch attacks on ports and shipyards further away.

It didn't take long to prepare, without any hesitation or agonizing.

The naval fleet commanded and led by Cecissian launched an attack on the predetermined target with high efficiency and precision.

The impact, formed directly from the essence of heaven and earth, destroyed all the small boats docked outside the port, as well as the protective measures and equipment around the port.

On the port side, the shipyard, with its huge building area, also suffered from this impact and blow.

The sturdy and reliable shipyard withstood the impact, but its massive roof shattered, revealing everything that remained inside.

In particular, the massive steel warships, which were mostly completed and still gleaming under attack, were directly exposed to the entire Kushan navy.

"What is that?" The moment the steel behemoth appeared, Kapil's eyes flashed with shock. He leaned against the railing, staring intently into the distance, as if afraid he was seeing things.

After confirming there were no problems, Kapil turned his head and looked at the already accumulating attack. He quickly shouted, "Change the attack direction, prioritize attacking the enemy port, and have the fleet move closer to confirm the situation inside the enemy shipyard."

Faced with Capil's order, Cecissian hesitated briefly, but ultimately did not stop the order from being issued.

Cecissian was quite certain that the giant steel ship inside the shipyard was indeed a real giant steel ship, a warship truly made of steel.

Even from a distance close to the horizon, Cecissian could still clearly see its enormous size and its distinctive metallic sheen.

These things alone demonstrate just how important this shipyard is.

The more important the shipyard, the higher the likelihood of a decisive battle with the Han Empire's navy, and the higher the probability of them achieving their objectives.

However, these are only superficial.

The core reason for this was that Cecissarian knew that many things could not be accomplished after seeing this half-finished steel behemoth.

I had almost given up hope, but now it seems like hope has reappeared, yet this hope is accompanied by despair.

Cecissarian's original plan was to destroy the Han Empire's shipyards, seize the Han Empire's main naval force, and create a twenty-year advantage for the Kushan Empire, making it easier for the next successor.

However, upon seeing the naval fleet led by Moncomb, Cecissian silently cut the time in half.

Even if they could destroy the Han Empire's shipyards and main naval fleet, Cecissian was unsure of the Han Empire's willingness to use so much steel to build giant ships.

Such a large number of steel behemoths, if they were deployed to the army, could arm hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops.

Judging from the performance of the Han Empire's navy, the other side seemed completely unaware of this possibility. Judging by this small sample, the Han Empire's steel reserves likely exceeded his expectations.

In this era, although steel production cannot directly determine a nation's power, the situation can be completely different if the disparity in steel power is too great.

With such resources, how long could the Kushan fleet maintain its advantage over the Han Empire?

To sustain this for longer, we have to win, and we absolutely must win.

Only in this way can the Kushan fleet go further, and go further under his protection.

Under these unfavorable conditions, seeing a nearly completed, semi-finished, and poorly armed steel behemoth filled Cecissian with indescribable joy.

If we can bring back even one ship, it will have significant reference value for the research direction and ideas of the entire subsequent empire.

With this technical experience and value, we can further address their shortcomings and make them stronger.

Moreover, this was a colossal steel warship, a terrifying existence he had seen many times on the battlefield, but had never even heard of elsewhere.

If we can bring such a giant ship back, even if we can't replicate it, we can add some weapons and carry out complete modifications and alterations, and then use it as a new ship.

Moreover, given the special nature of this type of ship, it's likely that only flagships will receive such treatment in the future.

From this perspective, everything seen when the shipyard's roof is lifted seems like a good thing. But sometimes, too many good things can turn out to be bad.

Having seen so many massive steel warships, Cecissian recalled the number and scale of steel warships possessed by the Han Empire and fell into silence and deep thought.

Thinking about the steel behemoths of the Han Empire's naval fleet, the number of ships appearing has reached as many as eight.

Originally, it was thought that this size was already unexpected, belonging to the main naval force of the Han Empire.

Unexpectedly, the main naval force of the Han Empire was so unique.

"Get close to him, capture him, and at the same time drive away the Han Empire people around the shipyard to prevent them from re-entering the shipyard and causing damage to everything inside. This will trigger a second round of sabotage, shifting the main target and means of attack to those outside." Having figured out the reason, Cecissarian quickly arranged for everyone to issue relevant orders and information to the unfinished steel behemoth.

In fact, Cecissian's worries were somewhat unnecessary. No matter how unfinished this steel behemoth was, it was still made of steel and was quite sturdy. How could it possibly be destroyed by a few workers?

The reason I didn't think of this was because I was too anxious, as if I was afraid that I would lose some opportunities completely.

Kapil, who was in the rear, then used this information to perform unified calculations and processing to arrive at the appropriate result.

To ensure the safety of the shipyard area and to drive away the Han Empire's forces, Cecissian commanded the frontline ships to move closer to the Han Empire's Qiongzhou shipyard. This not only created a deterrent effect but also diverted a portion of the army to search for landing sites, aiming to achieve some degree of occupation on land.

If we can capture it, then taking over this massive steel warship, even if it's only half-finished, will be a piece of cake. (End of Chapter)
