Xuzhou, Xiapi.

Lu Bu summoned Liu Bei's three brothers again to talk about Jingzhou. He had promised Kuai Yue that as long as Jingzhou could conquer Wuling County, he would send troops to attack Yizhou together.

Now it seems that Liu Biao is not good. He is considering whether to separate his relationship with Liu Biao.

"Xuande, do you know that the 300,000 troops in Jingzhou were defeated?"

"Oh? The 300,000 army was defeated? How many troops did Wu Shun send? 400,000? But the total strength of Yizhou is less than 400,000."

Faced with Lu Bu's inquiry, Liu Bei was crazy and stupid. He is now a member of Lu Bu's command, so how could he get the news first than Lu Bu? Even if he gets it, he can't say it.

Seeing Liu Bei's surprised and puzzled expression, Lu Bu was fooled.

"The Wuling Army has less than 100,000 people defended. After Cai Mao destroyed the Linyuan Shui Army, the Jingzhou Army made no achievements and was even defeated in a head-on decisive battle. It is really unbelievable."

It is hard to imagine what the Zhuque Legion showed its power when Lu Bu, who had never fought head-on with the Wuling Army. He only knew that it was embarrassing that 300,000 people could not defeat the Wuling Army, which was less than 100,000 people. It also indirectly explained a fact that the Jingzhou Army had poor combat power.

"Wen Hou and Wu Shun won the victory, no matter what the plan was, they would not affect Xuzhou. We only need to pay attention to the movements of Cao Cao and Sun Ce."

Cao Cao had already secretly sent someone to contact Liu Bei, but Liu Bei's foundation was not stable and he was not sure to overthrow Lu Bu. He was just to stoop Lu Bu and prevent him from discovering his secret actions.

For Xuzhou, the guards were very thoughtful. On one hand, they were preparing to cheat Lu Bu, while on the other hand, they were preparing to use Cao Cao to cheat Lu Bu.

Chengdu, General's Mansion in the West.

Wu Shun finally waited for the Linyuan battle report.

"The navy warship is gone! Cai Mao, who said to be a dog, is all money! But it doesn't matter, just create new things. Well, you have to create powerful and new ones!"

In the battle of Linyuan, the most severely damaged was Ganning's naval army. All tower ships, Mengchong and Dou Ships were burned.

Fortunately, not many people died. During the battle, the East tried its best to protect the naval army. As long as the new warships were in place, the naval army's combat effectiveness would immediately return to its peak.

"The Zhuge Bird Legion's catapult cart has destroyed a lot of Zhuge's giant crossbow, so I need to add a little more."

There are still weapons in the Weapons. If Dongfang Qiang wants it, he will say that Wu Shun is not too worried. What he is worried about is that there is not enough attack on the people of Jingzhou.

Even if all the major legions have filled up the organization, there are only 20,000 people in the Vermillion Bird Legion, 20,000 people in the Kirin Legion, 20,000 people in the Canglang Legion, 20,000 people in the Xuanwu Legion, 20,000 naval army, and a total of 100,000 troops.

Wuling County needs at least 10,000 people to defend. It is too wasteful and not cost-effective to use the navy as an ordinary soldier. Dongfangqiang can only take them to strengthen their momentum.

With a full calculation, 90,000 people attacked Jingzhou, which was a bit too despised Liu Biao. Wu Shun was not sure. There were a few people, and they were all elites trained carefully. It would be not worth it if they lost too much.

"Qu Ah, send an order to Wei Yan. Just say that Dongfangqiang wants to attack Jingzhou and ask him and Ma Teng to lend 20,000 cavalry to help the battle."

"Yes, let's arrange this."

After Ma Teng unified Xiliang, he had never expressed his words. Wu Shunde had no intention of having Ma Teng expanded. If he didn't take his words seriously, it would be a situation where he closed the door and beat the dog.

After thinking that there was nothing to be arranged, Wu Shun went to the Weaponshop and found Pu Yuan's disciple. If he wanted to build a new warship, he needed to discuss some details with the two craftsmen.

"Lord, if you have something to do, just send someone to notify Pu Yuan, why do you need to come here in person?"

Seeing Wu Shun coming, Pu Yuan quickly stopped the work in his hand to receive his lord. Since he came to Wu Shun's command, Pu Yuan's life has been very fulfilling. What he likes is that the materials he did not dare to expect in the past are piled up here like mountains. For Pu Yuan, this is the place he yearned for the most.

"After the battle of Linyuan, all my naval warships were destroyed. I want to build a new type of warship, so I will talk to you about it."

Wu Shun went straight to the point.

"Please move!"

Since we are talking about things, we naturally cannot talk about them in noisy environments.

When he arrived at the place where Old Ou rested, Wu Shun ordered people to bring paper and pen and draw it directly on the paper. Soon, the graphics of a modern warship appeared on the paper.

"Is the lord's painting a warship?"

Mr. Ou asked uncertainly.

The pattern on the paper has a sharp front end, raised upwards, without a mast sail. Because Wu Shun said just now that the navy warships were completely destroyed, Ou Lao guessed that the ship was drawn.

"Yes, this is a kind of warship! It looks like a layer of iron! When you encounter an enemy warship, you will hit it directly..."

Wu Shun described the power of the warship he drew to Lao Ou and Pu Yuan, who were present, and was stunned.

"Lord, how can this ship move without masts or sails?"

Pu Yuan looked at it for a long time but couldn't understand how the so-called warship moved. And he was covered in iron sheets. Can the ship float on the water?

"Oh, forgot. I'll draw it again!"

Wu Shun picked up the pen and drew a large impeller below the stern of the boat.

"Here, this is the source of power for the warship. As long as the impeller rotates, you can walk forward and reverse, and you can retreat. By controlling an impeller, the warship can start from front, back and left and right. How about it, it's amazing?"

After Wu Shun said this, Lao Ou and Pu Yuan were even more dizzy. What if that thing turned the boat and ran forward? Can the boat run backwards? And it will start from front, back, left and right. Is there such a magical boat in the world?

"Lord? The bottom of this ship is not flat, will it not tilt and overturn in the water?"

Seeing the end, Mr. Ou raised a very critical question. Today's warships, whether they are huge tower ships or small fighting ships, are flat at the bottom.

The warship painted by Wu Shun is pointed at the bottom, which goes against ordinary common sense.

"Hahaha, will you turn it over? You will know if you come up with a model."

Wu Shun didn't know how to build ships, he just drew out the warships from his previous life according to his impression. The bottom of the warship was not flat and would definitely not turn over. Wu Shun explained the principle, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

Wu Shun gave all the tips and directions that professionals do. Next, we have to rely on the group of skilled craftsmen in Yizhou to explore on their own.

Wu Shun believed that with the leadership of Ou Lao and Pu Yuan, the warships he drew would definitely be built. On that day, the invincible Jingzhou naval army would be broken into pieces when they hit.

"Take me and follow the lord's instructions and first make a model according to the drawings drawn by the lord."

Wu Shun loves to invent and is famous for his inventions in Yizhou. Pu Yuan did not find it strange that Wu Shun could draw such a strange warship.

"Don't follow my drawings, you can study it yourself first, I just drew it at will."

When Wu Shun heard that Pu Yuan wanted to make a model based on the pictures he had drawn casually, he hurriedly stopped him. The things he had drawn casually were not right, and they only looked rough.

Hearing Wu Shun's objection, Pu Yuan instantly remembered Wu Shun's temper as a manager. However, he did not think Wu Shun would not draw detailed pictures, but thought Wu Shun was testing them. So he said:

"Okay, my subordinates took the drawing and asked the boatman to study it. Then they made a model."

"Okay, then I'll go back first. Remember to call me when the model goes into the water."

"I understand!"

The new warship has finally begun to be developed, and I don’t know how long it will take. However, Wu Shun was full of expectations.

Two months passed in a flash, and outside Linyuan City, ninety thousand troops gathered to fight to fight.
