The Three Kingdoms

Sun Quan's face changed slightly.

The Pacific Ocean is indeed not easy to get along with, but at present, many of the navy's warships have been replaced with ironclad warships, which have great guarantees in terms of stability and navigation safety, but I did not expect such a large loss.

"Your Majesty, the weather at sea is unpredictable and unpredictable. We have been swallowed by the waves many times, and our current warship is not enough to survive the waves. It is best if we can arrive safely!" Qi Chang sighed.

The biggest enemy of the navy will always be the moody blue sea and blue sky. (To be continued.)

[Chapter 370 of the text The world is round]

Ever since the Great Wu Navy rushed out of the Yangtze River waterway and occupied the East China Sea and the South China Sea, it has continued to develop, whether it is in the research of warships or the improvement of sea navigation technology, it is constantly improving.Please read the most complete!

The strength of the Great Wu Navy today is far inferior to that of the Roman Empire, the overlord of Western Europe.

The territory of the Roman Empire stretches from the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, to the Indian Ocean. The sea territory is very large, so they also have a certain amount of naval power, and this force is very strong, but it is definitely not enough for them to compete with the Great Wu Navy.

In the infantry and cavalry of the army, they may be comparable to the Wu army, but in the navy, they are far from enough in terms of equipment and combat effectiveness.

But the enemy of the Great Wu Navy is not them.

In this era, the enemy of the Great Wu Navy will always be the moody and magnificent sea.

Over the years, the Great Wu Navy has not encountered any major damage at sea. Even the battle in Laizhou Bay that year only used a small part of the naval force. The real casualties of the navy were all swallowed by the waves.

The Flame Legion is a legion that has transformed from a half-naval and half-army to an all-naval model. They have little experience in sailing at sea, and it is already very good to be able to cross the Pacific Ocean, and there must be some casualties.

But Sun Quan didn't expect to go back and forth to the Pacific Ocean, and they actually killed nearly a division's troops, which surprised him. Maybe the decision to let the Flame Legion cross the Pacific Ocean to capture the American continent was not well thought out.

"Gong Miao, it seems that you still need to learn from Zhou Tai in terms of navy!"

Sun Quan sighed, and said instructingly: "Especially naval personnel, the Flame Legion is also the main force of the Wu army, and many of them can fight, but there are too few people who are proficient in sea navigation, so you will be injured during the voyage." heavy!"

"Your Majesty, in fact, I have searched the Dongzhi Lecture Hall. Whether it is an instructor or a student, as long as they are proficient in HNA, I have dispatched them in, and I have also sent people to study in the Sea Eagle Corps." , but we were mainly land infantry before, and it is impossible to become an elite navy all at once!"

He Qi smiled wryly.

He Qi became famous in the battle to annihilate Shanyue. As a famous general who is famous for his mountain warfare, he suddenly became the admiral of the navy after driving a duck into a sedan chair. He was under a lot of pressure.

Although as a native of Jiangdong, he is also familiar with some naval operations in Hanoi.

But sea navigation is different from river navigation.

In this regard, he suffered a lot.

"Everything needs a process, I understand!"

Sun Quan nodded, and then said: "However, the Flame Legion has become the second all-naval legion. This is obvious to all Wu Jun. You must become familiar with HNA as soon as possible. This sea is huge. Next, we will continue to There is a third naval corps, a fourth naval corps... If you can't adapt, it will be difficult to guarantee the next plan!"

"I will understand at the end!"

He Qi nodded.

In the past, his fleet was only wandering in the East China Sea, and he already felt that the sea was very big, but now that he was out of the open sea, he felt the boundlessness of the sea. Wu Jun wanted to conquer this sea, but two naval regiments were not enough of.

In the future, more naval legions will definitely be recruited. His Flame Legion has become a model. If it is not done well, it will greatly hinder the development of the navy in the future.

"Has the navigation chart from our Central Plains to the New World been shown?" Sun Quan asked.

"It's marked, but it's rough and needs to be improved!"

"Show me!"

"Yes!"

He Qi handed over a nautical chart that marked the islands. This nautical chart is exactly the nautical chart that connects the Central Plains and the American continent and crosses the Pacific Ocean.

"This nautical chart is pretty good!"

"Your Majesty, this is the fastest and safest voyage map that our Flame Legion has spent countless tossing and tossing in the sea with several sea-navigation expedition teams!" He Qi said.

"At present, our warships can't sail for too long. Compared with the sea, our warships still need to be improved, so from now on, the Flame Legion will start to build transfer stations on these islands, with transfer stations , Whether it is a warship or a civilian ship, it can cross the Pacific Ocean!"

"Your Majesty, if you do this, the project will be huge!" He Qi frowned.

"No matter how big the project is, we must do it!"

Sun Quan said resolutely: "It is not so easy for us to conquer this piece of sea, but the Great Wu Dynasty will not waver in its determination to conquer the sea. This piece of sea belongs to us. Even if we pay more, it is worth it!"

"Understood!" Sensing Sun Quan's determination, He Qi nodded in agreement.

"Gong Miao, how is the strength of your army currently preserved?"

Sun Quan thought about it, and asked suddenly.

"Report to Your Majesty!"

He Qi thought for a while before replying respectfully: "The strength of the five armies of the Flame Legion is still very good, and the casualties have been controlled within the range of three divisions. Although it is difficult to exterminate those natives at present, it is only because The terrain is vast, we can't use all our strength to strangle them, but the casualties to us are not too great!"

The natives on the New World could not pose a threat to their legion at all.

Most of the casualties of the Flame Legion, except for the price paid by HNA, basically preserved their strength very well, and there were no battles with large casualties.

"If I want to deploy three armies of yours to fight against the Roman Empire next year, can you spare them?"

Sun Quan asked again.

Next year's upcoming battle against the Roman Empire is a battle that Sun Quan has been preparing for a long time. The three legions in the first theater in the west, the Bashu Legion and the Flying Tiger Legion that will enter the west after the New Year, add up to half the strength of the Wu army.

But he still hopes to deploy more troops to attack, and strive to defeat their spirits in a single battle.

"Drop the strength of the three armies?"

He Qi couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard this, but after pondering for a while, he nodded and said, "Your Majesty, there should be no problem in mobilizing the three armies to join the battle, but we need to delay the extermination of the natives of the New World!"

"Then take it easy, it's very difficult for them to pose a threat to our Great Wu Dynasty!"

Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Bong Xiao, Ziyu!"

"His Majesty!"

The two came out from the left and right side rooms.

"Go get a big map!"

"Big map?"

"That's right, the big map, the map of our Great Wu territory, plus the map of the Roman Empire we know so far, all linked together for me, hang it up!"
