This water battle lasted for four hours, and the Jiangdong navy won a complete victory.

More than seventy enemy warships were wiped out, and only twenty or thirty of the hundreds of warships escaped. More than 10,000 enemies were captured alive, and many more died in the South China Sea.

This is the cruelty of war.

However, for the Jiangdong Navy, which had experienced hundreds of battles, they had no sympathy. After cleaning the battlefield, they headed towards the south of Linyi State to fight with the army.

The land war has also come to an end.

With the addition of hot air balloons and gunpowder, the enemy army was completely defeated. In the end, there were not many enemy troops left who fled.

Jiangdong's army successfully captured Bijing County, Linyi and used this county as a temporary camp.

When they were cleaning the battlefield, they even discovered that King Quxiong of Linyi Kingdom had died in battle. This surprised Zhou Yu and other generals.

As a result, Lin Yiguo was leaderless, and the remaining rebels in the county were nothing more than a rabble.

Zhou Yu directly divided his troops and left behind Lu Su, Han Dang and other 30,000 soldiers to garrison Bijing County, guard the prisoners and surrender them, and clean the battlefield at the same time.

Too many enemy soldiers died in battle, and the bodies must be disposed of, otherwise a plague will occur.

Twenty thousand troops were divided into generals such as Chen Wu and Dong Xi to pursue the deserters toward the tropical rain forest on the left. With the physical fitness of Jiangdong's army, it was easy to defeat one against five.

Even the miasma and poisonous insects in the tropical rainforest have minimal impact.

The remaining 50,000 troops followed Zhou Yu, Sun Ce and other generals to pursue the victory, and used the heads of the district heroes to capture the entire Linyi Kingdom in one fell swoop!

The army marched toward the next county in great strength.

After the navy returned in triumph, it docked at the seaport beside Bijing County, escorted the captives and surrendered troops to Bijing County, replenished supplies, and set off again in a mighty manner.

Lin Yi State is close to the sea, so it is just right for a joint attack by land and water.

In the next month, under Zhou Yu's command, Sun Ce, Huang Gai and other powerful generals led the 50,000 Jiangdong Army with overwhelming force.

The rebels of Lin Yi State were originally leaderless because their king Ou Xiong died in battle. In addition, Jiangdong's army was as powerful as a wolf and a tiger, and it was impossible to resist it.

In many counties, there were even scenes of Jiangdong's army descending upon the enemy as soon as they arrived. It was like welcoming Master Wang’s arrival.

In less than two months, the entire Linyi Kingdom was under the control of Jiangdong Army.

This is because the march took most of the time. In fact, the actual attack on the city only took six or seven days.

At this point, the territory of the Han Dynasty expanded again. In later generations, the whole territory of Yue Nan became within the territory of the Han Dynasty.

Not only that, the 20,000 elite Jiangdong Army led by Chen Wu and Dong Xi entered the tropical rainforest on the left to pursue the fleeing enemy soldiers.

The two generals deserve to be Jiang Biao's tiger ministers, and Jiang Dongjun deserves to be a tiger and wolf division. The country that was originally the home and simple village of later generations also lost a lot of territory.

The main reason is that this time Lin Yiguo united with neighboring countries to send troops to counterattack Jiangdong Army, which also gave the Han a chance to take action, and the division was famous.

After Zhou Yu captured the entire territory of Linyi, he led a heavy army to guard it. At the same time, prepare to send troops to Laowo and Jiansu Village on the side, and even further to the Tau Kingdom and Xian Dian.

If the countries that can seize this Golden Triangle set up naval bases in Xiandian, their sea routes will not need to pass through the Strait of Malacca.

In addition to saving a lot of tariffs, it can also avoid the impact of ocean currents and other environments on the fleet.

In ancient sea voyages, ships would be destroyed and people would be killed anytime and anywhere. This was due to the influence of ocean currents, whirlpools, and weather. Such disasters from nature were almost impossible to contend with.

Especially in the Strait of Malacca, sudden tsunamis and hurricanes are common.

Many fleets of the Jiangdong Navy were defeated by the attacks of nature.

If they can seize the countries in the Golden Triangle, they can cross overland to Xiandian, and then continue westward towards the Indian Ocean through the navy.

This strategic layout has crucial strategic significance for the Han Dynasty's future plan to conquer the world.

Even Zhou Yu and other generals were excited.

"If we can capture these countries, our military exploits will definitely be higher than General Huang's capture of Goguryeo!"

Huang Gai said with some longing. Although they both have the surname Huang, Huang Zhong is now General Wei, and his military rank is several levels higher than Huang Gai's.

"When we captured the Linyi Kingdom, His Majesty was very happy, as can be seen from the reward given by His Majesty. Lu

Meng said with a smile:"If we can really capture Funan, Siam, Shan and other countries, maybe our Jiangdong Army will collectively be promoted to two ranks!""

"exactly."

Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and other generals laughed.

They were under the command of Jiangdong Navy. After defeating the enemy's coalition navy, they advanced on land and water with Zhou Yu, Sun Ce, Huang Gai and other armies.

Now after capturing the entire Linyi Kingdom, At the same time, the troops pointed at Jianpu Village, the Tau Nation and other countries. After all, there is a Tau Nation Bay here, which allows them to attack the two countries.

"In fact, we can be bolder……"

Zhou Yu looked at the world map in front of him. This map was said to be produced by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Roughly label the islands and countries around the Han Dynasty.

In ancient times when transportation and navigation were inconvenient and it was difficult to see the world, it was a world-class miracle that such a 'world map' could be created!

"In addition to seizing Siam (Ti Kingdom), Funan (Jiansuzhai), Shan Kingdom (Xiandian) and other Nanyang countries, we can also capture Malacca (Malexia), Luzon (Felubin)...

Turn the South China Sea into the inland sea of ​​the Han Dynasty!"

Zhou Yu's words made many generals and advisers present fall into silence!

Goosebumps broke out in everyone's eyes, and everyone felt excited, excited, and excited!

"I heard that there was a Roman Empire in the far west, which could be compared with our Han Empire.

Their territory spanned the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa, turning the Mediterranean into their own inland sea.

I heard that the Mediterranean Sea is not under the South China Sea!"

Lu Meng said leisurely.

This made many generals even more excited. Suddenly, an extremely ambitious goal appeared!

Turn the South China Sea into the Han Dynasty's inland sea!

Their Han Dynasty is the world's first empire, and the so-called Roman Empire will also be conquered by them in the future. It’s just a sweep of the Han cavalry!

Rome can circle the middle of the earth and turn it into an inland sea. Naturally, the Han Dynasty can also circle the South Sea and turn it into an inland sea.

Thinking about it really makes people feel motivated and excited!
