The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

Chapter 258 Khitan, Andong Port

Because the search area was so large, thirteen warships appeared in front of the patrol boat.

When the patrol boat approached the enemy ship, it opened fire without any hesitation.

Boom boom boom!

Dense artillery shells whizzed past and landed on the thirteen warships.

Although these ships were heavily armored, they could not withstand the fierce impact of modern artillery shells, even those with a caliber of only 27 mm.

In an instant, the thirteen warships were beaten into sieves.

There were screams on the deck and blood and flesh were flying everywhere.

"Quick, fire quickly."

The fleet commander shouted hurriedly.

"Boom boom boom."

After a while, the warship finally launched a counterattack and fired at the patrol boat.

But the patrol boat was too small, and the artillery had poor accuracy, so none of the shells it fired hit the target.

However, the patrol boat never stopped firing and continued to fire crazily.

A patrol boat even rushed directly into the fleet and started firing crazily.

"Damn it!" The fleet commander's face turned pale when he saw this.

In this situation, he was unable to attack the patrol boat at all and could only passively take the beating.

"Go ahead and sink them."

The fleet commander roared through gritted teeth.

"Yes!"

The warship immediately rushed towards the patrol boat, attempting to sink it.

Unfortunately, the plan did not work.

The patrol boat was moving too fast and the warship couldn't stop it at all. In a blink of an eye, the patrol boat rushed out of the fleet.

"The patrol boat's gun caliber is still too small to sink the enemy ship."

On the big ship, Ning Quan looked at the battle scene and shook his head slightly.

The 27mm naval gun can damage enemy ships, but it is powerless to sink them.

"Let's use the main gun!"

After thinking about it, Ning Quan gave the order.

Ning Quan didn't intend to waste time and decided to use the main gun to deal with the problem.

"Boom!"

Soon, the main guns began firing.

A huge tongue of fire burst out in an instant, and the shells were like meteors, dragging long tails on the sea.

In this powerful flame, one warship after another was torn into pieces.

The shelling lasted about a minute and then ended.

All thirteen enemy warships were sunk, and not a single one escaped.

"The main gun is still powerful."

Looking at this scene, Ning Quan sighed.

This 130mm main gun is invincible in this era.

It's a pity that the number of shells is limited.

"Master, all enemy ships have been destroyed."

At this time, the captain came running to report.

"Well, I saw it. Let's let the patrol boat come back and continue on our way." Ning Quan waved his hand.

"Yes!" The captain immediately went to make arrangements.

After a while, the patrol boat returned.

Then, Ning Quan led the fleet forward.

......

Seven days later, the fleet returned safely to Tamsui Port.

Zhou Yu went to the dock to greet him in person.

“Greetings, my lord!”

"No need for the gift, this is a pretty good harvest."

"So I'll give you two million dan of grain. Please hurry and arrange for the unloading."

Ning Quan said with a smile.

"Thank you, my lord!"

Zhou Yu hurriedly said after hearing this.

Ryukyu also lacks food, and the population of Ryukyu is quite large, at least 800,000 including all the indigenous people.

Zhou Yu was also worried about food.

With these two million stones, the problem was solved immediately.

"Your Highness, how do you plan to transport the remaining food back?"

Zhou Yu suddenly asked.

"Well... I haven't thought about it yet."

"Daqian is definitely not going to make it. Don't even think about it."

Ning Quan frowned.

Ning Quan can take the food in the space back with him, but the food on the ship must be transported by land.

But given Ning Quan's current relationship with His Majesty, this is obviously impossible.

Ning Yuanwu would never let so much food pass through.

"That's easy. Your Majesty has already conquered Khitan. We can send the grain to Khitan and then transport it through Khitan."

"Although the subsequent journey is longer, it is not a problem. After all, the Khitan, Shiwei, and Eastern Xiongnu also need food." Zhou Yu suggested.

“That’s right!”

Ning Quan suddenly understood.

Of course, the Khitan, Shiwei, and Eastern Xiongnu all needed food.

Even if the food is transported back, some of it must be shared with them.

It is actually the same to transport it directly through Khitan now. The key is that Khitan also has a port by the sea, and grain ships can arrive directly, which is more convenient.

"Well, let's do it this way." Ning Quan nodded.

"Hurry up and unload the ship. After that, I will go to Khitan."

"By the way, this is for you."

As he spoke, Ning Quan took out three walkie-talkies and handed them to Zhou Yu.

"Your Highness, what is this?" Zhou Yu asked in surprise.

"This is a walkie-talkie. It can be used for remote communication. I'll teach you how to use it now."

Ning Quan said with a smile, and then taught Zhou Yu how to use it.

"So that's how it is. I never thought there would be such a magical thing in the world."

After learning it, Zhou Yu said in surprise.

"Well, this thing has a communication range of two thousand miles. If you want to communicate with me, you have to make several transfers."

"I will give you three more divisions. You will assign people to be stationed in Yuzhang, Chang'an, and Wuwei to deliver messages."

"Remember to send reliable people, otherwise it will cause trouble."

Ning Quan instructed.

"Yes, I understand!" Zhou Yu saluted respectfully.

"Well, you go and get busy first." Ning Quan waved his hand.

"Yes."

After Zhou Yu left, Ning Quan returned to the City Lord's Mansion to rest.

......

Two days later, Ning Quan led the fleet from Tamsui to Andong.

Andong is Dandong in another world. It belongs to the Khitan territory and is also the only sea outlet that the Khitan can use.

Of course, Khitan has other outlets to the sea, but those places are now completely barren.

After Ning Quan followed Zhou Yu's advice, he immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to Bai Qi in advance, asking him to make arrangements.

But the Khitan royal court was in Baishan, seven or eight miles away from Andong.

So when Ning Quan's fleet arrived, Bai Qi had just received the news and led his men from Baishan.

Khitan is a vast country with a sparse population. Andong City is actually just a slightly larger fishing village with a population of less than two thousand.

It will take a long time to load and unload grain with such a small number of people.

Moreover, these two thousand people were all Khitan civilians. Although the Khitans surrendered, they might not be willing to help.

Because he had just taken over, Bai Qi had not yet sent any officials to these small villages, so Ning Quan could only wait for Bai Qi's arrival.

Ning Quan didn't even get off the boat. He waited on it for four days before finally seeing a huge convoy coming.

The leader was Bai Qi, and beside him followed hundreds of Khitan cavalry.

“Attend, Your Highness!”

Seeing Ning Quan, Bai Qi immediately dismounted and saluted respectfully.
