The swamp air boat driven by Qing Cang walked very safely from underwater to the river, and did not encounter any obstacles. This safety is only a short-term safety. Because as time goes by, as he advances, there will be some obstacles. Especially when he reaches Sishui Pass, there is another major pass. There must be many Cao troops guarding there. What they have to do may be to rush through Sishui Pass. With the existence of the air submarine, he can pass through Sishui Pass fearlessly.

When Zhou Cang was still several kilometers away from Sishui Pass, he was fiddling with the telegraph machine. Since the two of them had been traveling for a long time, there was no other thing to play with. He would inevitably feel bored, so it was reasonable for Zhou Cang to get the telegraph machine.

Qing Cang felt that he showed great curiosity about this thing. Qing Cang was also happy to teach him something, but everyone was idle anyway. But when he turned on the telegraph, he received a signal request.

Didi

This is the sound he heard, some are long and short, and that is a telegram. Zhou Cang also asked curiously: "Commander! What is this sound?"

He said, "If there is a telegram, bring paper and pen!"

Zhou Cang prepared paper and pen in panic, and Qing Cang recorded the code while listening. The code was incomplete, but it was repeated. Every once in a while, it would be repeated. So, just remember it once.

He thought to himself that it must be Yang Xiaomei, and some telegram was sent. So he took the telegram and began to receive the telegram message.

It took him a while before he finished picking up. At the same time, he paused the air ship and began to translate the contents of the telegram. Zhou Cang, who was beside him, seemed very confused. He didn't know what was going on, so you just asked casually: "Commander! What's wrong? What was said in the telegram?"

Qing Cang picked up the translated note and looked at it. He said, "Chief Yang sent a telegram saying that the steam engine was not in Guandu. A few days ago, the steam engine head had been sent to Luoyang."

"What? Didn't Commander Yang say yesterday that the steam engine was in Guandu, why was it sent to Luoyang again?" Zhou Cang was puzzled. Not only him, but even Qing Cang was puzzled. It was quite difficult to get from Guandu to Luoyang within one day, and it was that big guy again. But he thought about it again.

Qing Cang said. "This is normal. On the one hand, it is because we have fewer intelligence personnel arranged in width. They obtain intelligence in a relatively single way. Another thing is that some intelligence will be lagging after obtaining it. This causes this situation now."

Zhou Cang seemed to understand but he asked again, what should we do? Where are we going?

Qing Cang said: "Fortunately we have not reached Sishui Pass yet. We can turn around. As long as we pass through the Luo River, we can safely reach Luoyang."

As a tributary connecting Luoyang and the Yellow River, the Luo River has a great role to carry.

Luoyang, as the capital of many dynasties, has experienced the fate of being burned three times, one of which happened in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

In the sixth year of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty (189), Dong Zhuo led his troops into Luoyang, abolished the Shao Emperor, and appointed Liu Xie, the King of Chenliu, as the emperor, and took charge of the government affairs as the prime minister. The following year, the princes of Guandong recommended Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance and attacked Dong Zhuo. Zhuo was defeated and took Emperor Xian to the west to Chang'an, and drove millions of Luoyang to move west to Chang'an. Before his trip, Dong Zhuo's soldiers burned and plundered, and rubble was all over the 200 miles around Luoyang.

Qing Cang had previously received news from Luoyang that it has been abandoned since it was burned. Since 190, it has not been close to people, so civilians cannot reach it and intelligence cannot reach it. It is better to get the information this time.

It is probably already a military zone. It is undoubtedly more difficult to obtain information from here than climbing to the sky, because it is isolated from the world, but there will always be someone who can get information from it. Just like this time, although the news is lagging behind, the news is still obtained with certainty.

So Qing Cang was planning to turn directly to Luoyang at this time. This city that was burned into ruins was once prosperous and could not resist a fire.

Since he made up his mind, Qingcang directly transferred the swamp air and headed towards the Luo River.

In fact, what they missed was just a few miles away. As long as they called back, they would arrive at the mouth of Luohe River in less than a while.

During this period, he also sent a telegram back, asking Yang Xiaomei to contact him again if there is an urgent matter, because getting information in time is the foundation of victory.

They followed the Luo River to Luoyang. When they reached the time when they were fifty miles away from Luoyang, they saw a large number of Cao troops guarding them. Qing Cang could have predicted that if they really arrived in Luoyang, there would inevitably be a large number of Korean troops guarding them.

The difficulty of directly destroying the steam engine is self-evident, and the difficulty will be raised to the highest level. But now that people have come here, there is no way out, and giving up halfway is not his character. And he believes that he can complete the task and destroy the enemy's steam engine to achieve the plan of destruction.

When they drove the air ship within fifty miles, Cao's army discovered their traces, so someone shouted: "There is an enemy attack! Get together quickly!"

"Discover the enemy is thirty feet away, gather quickly!"

As the orders continued, there were not many people on both sides of the Luo River. After this order, there were more people. These people filled the rivers of the Luo River.

The reactions of these people were much faster than Qing Cang imagined. How could they react so quickly? You should know that their reaction ability is not inferior to that of the Chinese Legion at all. Moreover, their emergency measures were also done well, and they had all kinds of cannons and firearms. In less than a minute, they gathered about 5,000 people by the Luo River.

This was a huge number. He didn't expect that he would be discovered so soon. At the same time, he did not find that someone from Cao's army was ahead. Someone was staring at everything about Luohe at all times. No wonder Yu Xiaomei's intelligence department could not know everything about Luoyang. This person could not get close to him. How to obtain information?

Seeing this, Qing Cang immediately dived into the bottom of the water. Fortunately, the Luo River existed. Otherwise, if they encountered land, they would not even have a place to hide.

He sank to the bottom of the river, which was about ten meters deep and was surrounded by artificial traces. It can be seen that the emperors of Luoyang built the emperors still put a lot of effort into managing this river.

There are several tributaries in the Luo River connecting Luoyang City, so if you can find those tributaries, you will definitely be able to reach Luoyang City.

The people on both sides of the Luo River were shocked by the disappearance of the Qingcang Air Boat. They did not expect that the ship would suddenly disappear from others' sight.

Someone shouted, "Where is that ship? Why is it gone!"

"It was obviously still there just now!"

"What's going on?"

"Go and notify the general."

This matter is quite a matter of fact, and they can't make the decision, so some people jog to the side. This place is nearly fifty miles away from Luoyang, so if they want to notify Luoyang City, it will take some time. More situations are to notify the generals stationed here and they will decide.

They had no idea that Qingcang had already headed towards Luoyang through the Luo River. The air submarine was moving at a constant speed at the bottom of the water. Compared with the Yellow River, the Luo River was much clearer. You could see some fish and shrimps at the bottom of the water, and you could see the sunlight above through the bottom of the water.

These situations were not available in the Yellow River. Zhou Cang thought that the novelty was that the submarine could dive, and this time the novelty was that fish and shrimps could be seen here. He was like a person with a strong desire for knowledge, constantly asking questions about this and that. Qing Cang had no time to reply to him, but he started to talk to himself.

"Big carp, big silverfish, crucian carp, shrimp..."

The entire submarine was like being in an aquarium, with a large number of fish and shrimp swimming over it, and there were also water plants and stones under it.

Qing Cang was not in the mood to care about this place. He looked at the markings on the map and was already very close to Luoyang City at this time, but he didn't know where they would place the steam engine.

It seems that everything depends on luck first. If you are not lucky, they must go to the water surface and catch a few people to ask.

They followed the Luo River and entered a small river canal from the edge of Luoyang. The depth of this He canal is about six meters. Since the bottom of the river is pitch black, black submarines are not so easy to detect.

They continued to penetrate deeper along the canal, and through the flowing animals at the bottom of the river, they could see some black water being discharged into the Luo River through the canal.

"Commander, is that the rule? Why come to us!"

Zhou Cang watched as the fish in the water gradually decreased, and there were clusters of black things covering their way.

"This is the sewage outlet, I think we should have found their place."

This is a modern thing, and it must be something that the Black Dragon ordered. Most of the manufacturing industry will produce a large amount of sewage, and the best way to dispose of these sewage is to be discharged into the river channel. No wonder they arrived within fifty miles, and the entire river channel became extremely dark. It turned out that the water was covered with dirt. However, these dirt also provided them with a natural barrier to protect their submarines from being discovered by the enemy.

"What?"

Qing Cang didn't say anything else, but pressed a button.

This led to a pipe extending from the submarine, which was an observation mirror, through which you could observe everything on the water.

The observation mirror rises very high, of course, this happens when there is no danger around.

Qing Cang put his eyes on the eyepiece, and when he saw it, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. That's right, he was shocked.

He murmured: "Even Huaxia City is not of this scale. The Black Dragon really invested a lot!"

He turned the observation mirror and saw that in his field of vision, all modern factories appeared in front of him. A large number of people were working hard in front of the factory, and a large number of carriages were lined with shells, guns, iron parts, and gunpowder. He also saw the bodies of many trains, but there was no steam head. He then understood that they had studied the simple car body, but they could not study the steam engine. No wonder they had to steal his steam engine.

He tried to carefully check whether he could find the whereabouts of the steam engine, but he could not see it no matter how he looked, but he still gained it because he saw a place where important grenades and mines were placed. This scared him very much. Grenades and mines, these two things, which are said to be extremely lethal, have much more lethality to life than muskets, and its mines can also produce huge blasting power on armored vehicles, which will destroy armored vehicles. They seem to have smelled that Huaxia City has begun to study armored vehicles.

Through a large number of modern factories here, he knew that it was an arsenal and had a large number of heavy troops to guard it. It can be said that it was a team of guards a hundred meters. Luoyang had become the weapon base of the Black Dragon.

Qing Cang thought to himself that this base must be destroyed, especially those grenades and landmines must detonate them! Otherwise, it will be an extremely unstable factor for them and the threat to them will be huge.

Seeing that Qingcang's face was solemn and seemed to be something big was about to happen, Zhou Cang asked, "Commander, what's wrong?"

Qing Cang didn't say much for the reason, just said, "Come with me, we're going ashore!"

After that, the submarine was to be lifted to the water.

"What!"

Zhou Cang thought he heard it wrong, so Qing Cang said he wanted to go ashore! This is amazing!

"We went ashore to find the whereabouts of the steam engine, and we couldn't find its location in the water!"

Qing Cang then said what was the purpose of getting ashore. Zhou Cang said directly: "But this place is very dangerous. I'm afraid we won't get off if we go up!"

This is Zhou Cang's temperament. He usually doesn't do something that is too dangerous, so at critical moments, he will remind Qing Cang not to be too anxious. Qing Cang is a systematic person. Of course he is not afraid, but Zhou Cang is afraid!

It seems a bit bad to be so aggressive, and Zhou Cang's words are not unreasonable, because there are heavy troops here to guard them. If you want to act under the eyes of so many soldiers, it is very easy for them to discover.

"That's right!"

Qing Cang also found that he was too hasty this time, and it was a matter of time.

He said again: "In another hour, it will be dark. Let's act dark!"

Qing Cang still didn't let it go. He wanted to make a quick decision. This matter could not be delayed. Once it was time for the Black Dragon to produce the steam engine, it would be too late.

He did not expect that the Black Dragon would use Luoyang City as a military base or a military arsenal, probably because of its convenient transportation. The Yiluo Valley where Luoyang is located is relatively small, and Shandong's economic center is not here. Agricultural production in the Luoyang area is not very developed. However, Luoyang's good geographical location and transportation conditions in the world have become its biggest advantage. In the absence of railways, waterways can be completely replaced.

"Yes, Commander."

Zhou Cang didn't say anything else. Qing Cang made such a decision, and he had to obey.

Qing Cang took out the prepared dry food and distributed it to Zhou Cang, and the two started to eat it. Then the two drove the submarine to a hidden place and exposed the water. Because the submarine could not be parked under the water for too long, they would have to go to the water surface to exchange oxygen for a period of time.
