Chapter 205 Navy war

Translated by Gamer

(TN: The main camp stated in this chapter are all on water)

(Note: Gan Ning’s nickname, Jin Fan Zei translate to ‘Brocade’ ‘Sail’ ‘Thief’ Sounds strange after translating so I opt to leave it untranslated)

(There are two types of boats/shi+ps The towered shi+ps 楼船 are giant shi+ps that have less/no sails but have towers/bungalows on it Warshi+ps 艨艟 were s oars)

The Yangtze River originates fro Peaks of the Tanggula Mountains at the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau The water flows from multiple places and civilization was fores of the Yangtze River

Under the night sky, there were countless large boats being hidden under clothes at the Yangtze River The shi+ps went downstreahts They were navies

“We are ready!” Inside one of the large shi+ps, a soldier reported to the co officer but did not have the right appearance

The corinned If it was any other person, he would have dragged out the disrespectful soldier and beat him up However, this was common to the commander who also looked like a ruffian

“How eneral! General! We are now in the arer thieves!” The general of the navy looked at his soldier and grumbled Every soldier had a bell attached to their bodies to use during an e a colorful robe They were going on an excursion

Colorful robes and bells His close associates gave him the nickname Thief Jin Fan

Without doubt, this person is Gan Ning He was Jin Fan Zei He was Lu Bu’s navy co at the river for a while After they received atook Lu Bu’s navy and stopped near Wan Cheng They wanted to avoid battle Lu Bu’s Arenerals like Gan Ning and Su Fei, they do not have enough soldiers and warshi+ps Even though there was also Liu Mang’s secret weapon, they could not co was not a fool If they were to attack now, it would be courting death

This is why Gan Ning is currently hiding at theThe river at this point splits frohteen streams The current was also very fast and was full of reefs Those there were slightly careless will end up being stranded But this was not a proble was the Jin Fan Zei! He was the leader of 800 thieves that robbed traders at the Yangtze River They struck fear in the governdong navy If they were to send a large nu would hide If they send a s would s the navy could not do anything In the end, Liu Biao eh Liu Biao has recruited Gan Ning, he did not like Gan Ning’s background and never referred hi hi lost all hope until he ran into Liu Mang and Lu Bu

Gan Ning was an arrogant person

Although he has capital, he was not liked by many rulers However, Lu Bu was not such a person This is because there is no one who is more unrestrained than Lu Bu He is not afraid that a person is wild He is just afraid that the person does not have talent

Without any objection, Lu Bu gave Gan Ning control of the navy without intervening at all He let Gan Ning demand whatever resources and provisions he needs Lu Bu wanted Gan Ning to be able to show off his full power

How could Gan Ning not notice this? Although he did not say this, Gan Ning has already considered himself an important part of Lu Bu’s Ar a bit sullen and unclear They could only hide at the marshes They were not allowed to appear or make any loud noises They must eat, drink and sleep at the warshi+p How is this comfortable?

After a few days, they have finished loading their equip looked at Wan Cheng at a distance He could see the navy of the Wan Cheng city Gan Ning could not help but sneer

“Jiangdong navy is invincible? Today, letBa ask for advice!”

Inside thenavy, Lu Su just received theNow he needs to write a letter to Jiangdong and request forCity to ensure that nothing else goes wrong at Lujiang Although there were a lot of casualties for the Sun Ce’s Army, at the end of the day, they have won and have captured Wan Cheng

Lu Su remembered the time he was threatened and humiliated by Lu Bu However, Lu Su was not worried because he would ain Sun Ce’s objective was to chase away Lu Bu and expand the borders of Lujiang

Thinking like this, Lu Su continued to write his letter with the help of a la the letter, the skies have turned bright

“It’salready?” Lu Su did not sleep as he was too excited The first time he was dispatched, he already helped Lord Sun Ceto to capture Wan Cheng Not only that, but the whole of Lujiang would also be captured soon This is why he wrote a few military orders and a letter to send to Zhou Yu

“It’sin the ht, they will be seen by the navies of the Sun Ce’s Army

“A shi+p?!” One of the watches for the Wan Cheng navy looked at a distance The sky changed and the brightness also constantly changed between bright and dark As a result, people hed at shook his head There would not be any traders this early in the e shi+fts when an arroards his head

Haqian The soldier sneezed and jerked his head and the arrow ended up piercing the pillar of the watchtower The soldier looked helplessly at the arrow for asleepy

“This, this, this!” The soldier continued to stare at the arrow that was right in front of his face If the arrow had hit someone, it would blow out their brains and kill theain and noticed a few vessels Although the vessel was sied to Sun Ce, it had a black colored flag Without a doubt, the arrow came from one of them

“Enemy attack!” The soldier finally understood He did not have blurry vision An enetze River

The shout was clear and loud on that quietThe second boas already loaded and another arroas shot This tiled to breathe before he fell into the water

“What a waste!” The one who shot the arroas Gan Ning He wanted to kill the watch soldier first but the soldier was saved by a sneeze As a result, the soldier’s death was not in vain as he ed to wake up the rest of the shi+p The navy have sounded the drums One by one, the soldiers crawled out of their tents and head towards their warshi+p

“General! What now!?” A soldier that was beside Gan Ning shouted out He was one of Gan Ning’s original navy He also surrendered together with Gan Ning and Su Fei Originally, he was not optimistic about Lu Bu’s navy that only had a few thousand soldiers They barely had any towered shi+ps and only had 2 dozen shi+ps On the other hand, the Jiangdong navy has tens of thousands of soldiers and even a few hundred towered shi+ps Besides that, the Jingzhou navy has over 100,000 soldiers Although the quality of their soldiers was lower, they could still easily defeat most armies

The Lu Bu Ariant sea ’s heart calmed down after he saw the mysterious instrument on the shi+p With those devices, Lu Bu’s towered shi+ps would have ah arrows, he could defeat Jiangdong’s navy and perhaps Jingzhou’s navy with a few of Lu Bu’s Army’s boats

“What else can be done! Start the offense!” Gan Ning’s faced showed a hint of displeasure His original plan was to launch a surprise attack right in the ive them disastrous casualties
