Chen Gong came over to explain his purpose to me. He learned that I had obtained this new warship, but due to insufficient staff, he specially brought people to help me.

"These people are my brothers, most of them are very wild. They all have a certain understanding of machinery, so let's get a count of the crew."

The warship has begun to be transformed under the compilation of Gongsun, Zhao Zilong, Fu Tong and others. Chen Gong asked his people to go over and participate in the work of transforming the warship.

Chen Gong said to me: "I have important things to tell you. Based on the information I have received so far, the princes have already organized all the warships that were originally planned to be equipped with the floating fleet into their own troops. After Yuan Benchu ​​was injured, there were no dragons and the princes had their own ulterior motives. Everyone was only concerned about their own considerations. No one would hand over the warships to help you."

"This is almost the same as what I thought. Fortunately, Cao Mengde helped me a little favor and provided me with this warship. Otherwise, I wouldn't even have a warship, and I would be a commander without a warship."

Chen Gong smiled coldly: "Do you think he is really thinking about you? I will provide you with a set of data first. At present, Cao Cao's generals Cao Ren and Cao Hong have arrived at the front line, and everyone has heavy troops in their hands. Cao Ren has an assault fleet in his hand, while Cao Hong is in charge of the armored ships. Both units are equipped with the latest floating warships, and Cao Mengde has not handed over the latest warships to you at all!"

I was surprised: "Take it seriously?! What else do you know?!"

"Cao Mengde has asked Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan brothers to supervise the construction of a new Tiger and Leopard Cavalry unit. Have you ever thought about it? A whole regiment of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry mechas!"

I felt my hair stand up: "What did you say?! A whole regiment of tiger and leopard cavalry mechas?! How did they save such a large family fortune?! Didn't the front line always consume combat?! The Cao family stole the Chang'an Arsenal to their own house?!"

"It's not like that." Gongsun heard our conversation and came over and interrupted: "Chang'an Arsenal itself is very close to Chang'an Research Institute. The heads of two places, one is Cao Ren and the other is Cao Hong, both of them are Cao's family. After Dong Zhongying entered Chang'an, a fire broke out in the Chang'an Arsenal and Chang'an Research Institute. After the fire, a large number of equipment mysteriously disappeared and even the wreckage could not be found. When Cao Ren and Cao Hong reported, they claimed that this was the remnant of the Yellow Turban Army, but afterwards, they were all involved in the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army.

Some transportation teams frequently traveled to and from the industrial bases of Chang'an and Cao's family. The Cao family said that this was moving, but the scale of the moving was significantly larger. After Dong Zhongying's people occupied the Chang'an Research Institute and the Chang'an Arsenal, not only were important production equipment missing, but even some design drawings and skilled technicians were gone. All they left were left were old computers with viruses. Dong Zhongying spent a lot of time to restore operation of the Chang'an Research Institute and the Chang'an Arsenal."

"Cao Mengde is sliding, don't think he is really for your own good." Chen Gong took out a document and handed it to me and said, "This is the coalition's combat plan. I got it from Yuan Benchu's office. Look at the contents above."

After reading this combat plan, I felt confused - the plan clearly stated that the general attack on Hulao Pass will be launched at the end of this month! As the newly established floating warship unit, it must participate in this general attack and be included in the first echelon.

The so-called first echelon, that is, the vanguard troops, can achieve the effect of a surprise attack if the opportunity is good, but everyone has been squatting in front of Hulao Pass for so long, and they can touch each other almost the same amount of weight. In addition, there is also Chang'an City in the air eyeing it. As long as we send troops, we will definitely bring devastating attacks from the other side. At that time, let alone the effect of the surprise attack cannot be achieved, if we cannot become cannon fodder, it will be burning incense!

What's more, our broken ship is not a combat ship, but hastily changed it with a transport ship. Even the weapons and fleet combatants are pieced together, let alone combat power. I guess they have to finish the game as soon as they drive it out!

Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide also came to see the combat plan. After reading it, the two of them said to me: "Brother, why don't we run away?"

"Running? The two armies confront each other and escaping at the last minute is a death sentence..." Chen Gong couldn't help but smile bitterly.

I thought about it and asked Chen Gong: "I know you have a wide range of ways and many ways. What do you think I should do in this situation today?"

Chen Gong said: "In the coalition, the princes fought openly and secretly, and they all hid their own private parts and refused to show their trump card. Now, except for this Gongsun who is sincerely helping you, the other princes will no longer assist you. Whether it is the Yuan family, the Cao family or the Sun family, they all want to hide their strength. If they conquer Hulao Pass, or even Chang'an and overthrow Dong Zhongying, the princes will fight in the future. They will seize territory, divide Dong Zhongying's military resources, military factories, and even Xingzhi Mine. Prepare for dominating the world in the future."

"Should I preserve my strength like them?"

"You have no chance, you have been pushed to the forefront. Now you don't even have a way out. If you really become a deserter, the alliance of princes will condemn you as a sinner, push all the faults on you, and in the end you will be wanted and put you to death."

"Damn it! It's so sinister!" Zhang Yide cursed.

Chen Gong sighed: "Intrigue, this is politics."

I said: "I have no interest in politics, nor dominance of the world. I just want to overthrow Dong Zhongying and restore peace to the world as much as possible."

"It would be great if the people in the Alliance of Princes think so much like you." Chen Gong said: "I have been in contact with you for so long, and I have figured out your character. This way, if you are sincerely willing to listen to me, I have a plan that may help you."

“What plan?”

"Have you heard of Lu?"

I was stunned: "I haven't heard of it."

Chen Gong turned to others: "Have you heard of it?"

Everyone else shook their heads too.

Chen Gong said: "The Lu is the legendary ship of hope, and it is said to be the masterpiece of the great scientist Mr. Shui Jing. As we all know, Mr. Shui Jing once designed the star marrow furnace for Chang'an. At that time, the rulers of Chang'an believed that the design of the star marrow furnace could be applied to aircraft, so Mr. Shui Jing designed an aircraft that could use the star marrow furnace as a source of power."

Zhang Yide said: "We have all seen that star marrow furnace in Chang'an. It has a very high power, and even Chang'an can use it to fly. Has the design of this aircraft finally been completed?"

Before Chen Gong answered, someone next to him said, "The design has been completed and it is said to have been built. Unfortunately, after completing it, Mr. Shui Jing was also ill in bed because of exhaustion and could not see it take off with his own eyes."

The person who speaks is actually Dan Fu!

"Long time no see!" I went over and hugged him enthusiastically.

Shan Fu said: "Oh, it's been a long time since we met. I didn't expect that you have become the commander of the fleet now."

"Just just a commander, look at me now, just like this broken ship, and when I go out to fight, I guess I will turn into cannon fodder."

"Don't say that. If you get Lu, it's different... It's a floating battleship that can match a fleet!"
