The Three Kingdoms

Gan Ning replied.

"Westbound!"

Sun Quan heard the words, thought about it, and set a goal for them.

"Gan Ning, have you seen this place? This is the Rinan Jiuzhen area in Jiaozhou. Behind Rinan Jiuzhen there is a large piece of land, which is very barren. This is our next target to conquer!"

"My lord, if we pass here, it should be the Western Regions of the Silk Road in the past?"

Gan Ning stacked the maps one by one, carefully looked at the topographic maps of the Western Regions, interlaced them with the maps of Liangzhou, and pieced together a rough figure, and asked with some doubts: "Someone once said, There is Da Yue Clan in the Western Regions, Da Yue Jianguo, where there is a place comparable to the Central Plains!"

"you can say it this way!"

Sun Quan nodded, and said, "Come here, give Gu a pen and a piece of paper!"

"promise!"

Inside the cabin, a staff officer handed Sun Quan a pen and a piece of white paper.

"Gan Ning, look carefully. This is Xiliang, and this is Shuchuan. This should be the Qiang tribe, and this is Jiaozhou. To the west of them, there is a big world that we can't even see. There is an empire in heaven and earth, which is very vast. If we want to connect and enter from the land, high mountains block the road, deep mountains and wild forests block, we can only take the old Silk Road, but this road is very barren, and it is difficult for the army to walk. Moreover, it is necessary to seize Liangzhou as the foundation, which is impossible for Wu, what you need to do is to find a way to open a passage to this unknown sea area from the sea, and land in this area from the sea!"

Relying on his memory, Sun Quan quickly drew a rough map of the Indian Sea on the white paper.

Indian civilization is also an ancient civilization.

This time should be the period of the Guishuang Empire. The Guishuang Empire, the Anxi Empire, the Roman Empire, and the Han Dynasty are the four overlords on earth in this era.

Sun Quan has extraordinary ambitions and wants to unify the earth, but it would be unrealistic for Wu's navy to hit Rome in one go.

Both the East China Sea and the South China Sea have been taken by the State of Wu, and what they are about to face is to go out of the inner sea and cross the outer sea. There are two paths for the Wu State Navy to choose, one is the Pacific Ocean, and the other is the Indian Ocean.

Taking the Pacific route means landing in the Americas. At this time, the Americas, apart from savages, are still savages. For the Wu Kingdom, it is not a big challenge.

Only take the Indian Ocean, land in India, and then fight all the way from India.

From Guishuang to Anxi, and then from the Mediterranean to Rome, this is a journey Sun Quan planned for the future Wu Kingdom Navy.

"Gan Ning, do you know why Gu transferred you and Zhou Tai to the South China Sea?" Sun Quan asked.

Guarding the South China Sea does not require two such ferocious generals. By doing so, Sun Quan is already making preparations for opening up the Indian Ocean.

"Your Majesty is preparing for the navy's westward journey!" Gan Ning understood.

"clever!"

Sun Quan nodded, pointed to the Indian Ocean, and said, "After the establishment of the South China Sea base, Zhou Tai will be the main general, and Ru will be the deputy general to guard the South China Sea. There is no need to dispatch nearly 20 troops alone. Your goal is to cross this sea area. !"

"I will obey!"

Gan Ning looked a little excited, it is the honor of a general to open up territories.To be continued. .

[Text 6, Chapter [-], set foot on the land of Liaodong again]

Sailing at sea is actually a very irritating thing. After sailing for several days, the fleet has arrived in the waters of Qingzhou, and there is still one day before it can land in Liaodong.

After several days of bumping at sea, Sun Quan, who doesn't often take boats, naturally became a little depressed.

"Gan Ning, when can we go ashore?"

In the central cabin of the Jinfan, Sun Quan gritted his teeth, his forehead was sweating coldly, and his face was very pale.

Since the fifth year of Chuping, he has not gone to sea for several years, and the wind and waves on the sea are just too much for him to bear.

"Your Majesty, bear with it, you can land in Liaodong Port tomorrow morning!"

Gan Ning looked at Sun Quan's uncomfortable look, but he was helpless. He personally brought a bowl of seasickness soup, handed it to Sun Quan, and said comfortingly.

"Ah! Back then when Brother Guhe led the fleet to take the first step to the sea and explore Yizhou, it was not as uncomfortable as it is now!"

Sun Quan sat on the chair, took a sip of the bitter seasickness soup, and then said with some emotion: "It's been too long since Gu's peaceful life, and I haven't been to the sea for a while, and I'm not used to the turbulence at sea. !"

The Jinfan is a large ship. In fact, the cabin is relatively stable, but Sun Quan is really not used to the turbulence on the sea, which will naturally cause adverse effects.

Even though he has achieved success in martial arts now, he still can't bear this kind of ∫... the reaction after the bump.

"Your Majesty, why don't we try to slow down and keep the boat steady!" Gan Ning said in a low voice.

"Need not!"

Sun Quan shook his head when he heard the words, and said: "In this sea, I really feel uneasy, so I'd better go ashore early and pass down the order. Go forward at full speed, I must go ashore as soon as possible!"

"promise!"

Gan Ning nodded.

The next day, in the early morning, when the sun crossed the horizon, the huge Jinfan fleet had already arrived at the port of Liaodong.

It's the late autumn season in October, although the snow hasn't started to snow in northern Xinjiang yet.But Liaodong has already entered winter, and the weather is very cold. The cold wind is howling, and the chill is piercing.

Of course, even the coldness could not suppress the noisy and prosperous scenes emerging from Liaodong Port.

The port of Liaodong is located in the later Lushun.

This is the first port connecting northern Xinjiang and Jiangdong established by the two brothers Sun Quan and Sun Ce when they led troops to land in Liaodong for the first time.

This port is now the most prosperous port in northern Xinjiang.

Since Northern Xinjiang was connected to Jiangdong, shipping has become increasingly prosperous.Many ports have emerged one after another. Several ports have been opened up in Youzhou, and there are also several ports in the Mahan Peninsula, and there are three large ports above Liaodong.

Among them, the exclusive port of the Navy is only Litashi East Port.

Of course, Tashi Port is not just a military port. This port is centered on Tashi County, with a military port to the east.To the west is a free port, with many caravans and people coming and going.

"call!"

Eastern port.The navy guarding the port had already lined up to greet them. Sun Quan stepped off the warship and let out a long breath of foul air.

Still down-to-earth and more spiritual.

"Your Majesty, the last general will be sent here. The envoy Gongsun and General Zu Mao have already led the civil and military forces in Liaodong, waiting for a long time at the front pier. The last general will leave!"

Gan Ning bowed and resigned.

The naval base in the South China Sea is under construction, and with the major changes in the military, he has a lot of things on hand, and the matter of escorting Sun Quan has already delayed him a lot.

Moreover, Sun Quan has set a future journey for him now.He had to prepare, and he couldn't wait for a moment.

"Wait, Xingba, this is for you!"
