Volume 5: Overlord of the Sea Chapter 592: Captives
During the Battle of Bohai, Gan Ning sank the main ship where Xiahou Yuan was. After the artillery fire "dispersed" the surroundings, he hurried forward to "catch the big fish."
Although others didn't know that Xiahou Yuan was on board, they knew that there must be high-level generals of Cao Wei on the main ship, especially this one, which was in a relatively important position...
And at this moment, Xu Chu, the guard sent by Cao Cao to Guo Jia, directly entered the divine power mode and came from the air.
Xu Chu in the "God of Power·Tiger Madness" state, like other God of Power modes, appears to be without armor.
Even Tiger Chi had very little armor, his upper body was naked, and he was only half covered with white tiger fur. His figure was considered sturdy among the gods, and he was only one step away from being "bloated".
In the right hand is a single sword connected to the white tiger's fur, with the white tiger's head as the handle, and in the left hand is an iron whip connected to the tiger's tail...
Cao Wei now has two of the world's ten greatest generals - Dian Wei and Xu Chu.
Compared to the Duke of Qi who also had two great generals, Cao Wei’s generals were actually more “monotonous”.
Guan Yu is arrogant, but he has talent as a commander; Zhang Fei is hot-tempered, but he is a rare brave general who can inspire the three armies, and he is also rough but meticulous at the critical moment.
As for Dian Wei and Xu Chu...
Normally he can only be used as a "bodyguard" and can only be used on the battlefield when fighting generals. Not to mention commanding people and using strategies, even leading an army by himself is very "crude".
This time, Guo Jia served as the commander-in-chief of the Wei navy, and Cao Cao specially assigned Xu Chu to him.
Although Cao Cao's death order was for Xu Chu to just protect Guo Jia and not be distracted, after all, there would be few opportunities to fight generals in a naval battle. As for charging the fleet... the artillery was not to be trifled with.
But when Guo Jia asked him to rescue Xiahou Yuan, Xu Chu hesitated for a while and finally took action.
Xiahou Yuan was no ordinary person. Not only did he have a deep relationship with Cao Cao, but he was also one of the top three leaders in terms of power and prestige in the Wei military.
Xu Chu landed at Xiahou Yuan's location and stepped on the water. He not only withstood a wave of solid bullets and shrapnel bullets, but also drew his sword and slashed in all directions...
The huge waves hindered the Chu army warships from approaching - the ones who came to "fish" at this time were naturally "small boats" such as escort boats and torpedo boats.
However, just when he wanted to take the opportunity to grab Xiahou Yuan, the tenth divine general in the world, who was only now exposed to the public, the fifth divine general of the Chu State, took action!
I saw a figure in red, coming straight at me from hundreds of feet away at an extremely fast speed, as if leaving an afterimage, and stopping Xu Chu.
It was Gan Ning who was originally on the ironclad ship. When he discovered Xu Chu's appearance here, he immediately guessed that there was a "big fish" here, so he came here in person.
And at this time, Gan Ning was also in the divine power mode...
No armor either...
However, he was not shirtless, but was wrapped in red Jiangdong brocade. In one hand he held a slender long-handled knife, and in the other hand he held a steel ring connected with red silk, which was about the size of a person's embrace - it was an evolution of Gan Ning's original combination of knife and iron chain flying claws.
However, what Xu Chu was most concerned about was the two objects ...
The reason why Gan Ning was able to arrive here so quickly just now should be related to this!
If you are someone who knows what you are doing, you will definitely be able to tell that this is the legendary... propeller!
That’s right, it’s a very scientific propeller, not something strange.
It was only after Gan Ning came back that Bai Tu knew that he had broken through to the level of a Divine General. The opportunity for his breakthrough was when he was trapped by the wind and waves before, and Gan Ning had reached the state of unity between man and boat...
It may seem strange to say this, but it is true that Gan Ning increased the horsepower of the "Explorer" out of thin air, and when he transformed into the god general mode, there was a pair of mini Qi boat propellers under his feet.
He also mastered a combat skill that allows him to move at super-fast speeds over long distances - he might not be as good as Ma Chao in terms of small-scale maneuvers, but in terms of long-range speed, Gan Ning's "Sky Drop" far exceeds him.
Although Gan Ning was clearly inferior to Xu Chu in the battle of generals, in terms of single combat, Gan Ning should be the last among the generals, which would have impressed Sun Ce very much...
However, they are all divine generals after all. When in a state of divine power, none of them can be solved with just three or two moves, and after a short delay, a long snake formation rushed over directly.
Even Xu Chu was unable to shake the battleships or gunboats and had to retreat, while Gan Ning used the red silk that replaced the armor chains to roll up Xiahou Yuan.
Originally, Xiahou Yuan wanted to be tough and refused to surrender, but Gan Ning, who was in a state of divine power, broke his golden and jade armor, cast a military talisman, and then tied him up.
Although his combat effectiveness was at the bottom among the gods, it was easy for him to deal with ordinary gold and jade generals, especially when Xiahou Yuan's armor was suppressed by the navy on his own ship.
After Gan Ning learned about Xiahou Yuan's identity, he was also very pleased...
"Hahaha, it just so happened that half a year ago, on my goddaughter's third birthday, my gift was not good enough, so this is a good gift!" Gan Ning said happily as he looked at Xiahou Yuan, who was injured when he took off his armor.
"I am a general. I can be killed but not humiliated!" Xiahou Yuan was so angry that he wanted to commit suicide. He would rather die than surrender or be captured.
After all, what this guy said clearly meant to use me as a gift? How could I, Xiahou Yuan, endure such a great humiliation in my life? Believe it or not, I will go on a hunger strike...
"Oh? You're quite tough... Keep him under my watch. He's the grandfather of my goddaughter. I must send him back to Jinling before August 15th!" Gan Ning gave the order without buying it.
Xiahou Yuan was about to curse again, but then he realized...
Grandpa?
Could it be...Bai Ningning?
Indeed, when Xiahou Yuan knew that Xiahou Juan had given birth to a daughter, apart from some resentment about it being a daughter, he was still very happy. He just felt that the relationship between Wei and Chu was not as good as before. Moreover, even if it was like before, it would not be convenient for him to go to see his granddaughter in person - he had long regarded Xiahou Juan as his own daughter.
Now after hearing what Gan Ning said, he knew that his granddaughter had recognized him as her adoptive father...
Bai Ningning, Gan Ning... This was the idea that the King of Chu had in mind when he chose the names, right?
When Xiahou Yuan thought that Xiahou Juan was still in Jinling, he didn't want to die anymore. Of course... he would not surrender.
While Xiahou Yuan persuaded himself in his heart that "life is not only about the annoying Gan Ning in front of me, but also the lovely Ningning in Jinling", he was escorted to Jinling without going on a hunger strike.
Even though Gan Ning wanted to reunite his goddaughter with her on August 15, the Battle of Bohai Sea had not yet ended and the main fleet was still in pursuit, so Gan Ning sent a escort boat to send back Xiahou Yuan, who was tied up...
However, he was still a step late and arrived in Nanjing on August 16.
At the same time, Xiahou Juan had already confiscated all the battleship toys that Ningning's godfather had given her one day in advance, so as not to irritate Xiahou Yuan...
