Chapter 614: Perfect Cooperation
Yao Dali asked himself to be the vanguard officer of the entire fleet.
In fact, when the two naval divisions first merged, Director Wang was still a little uneasy.
Because Yao Dali came from outside the customs, in terms of origin, he was a direct general of the Beiting Protectorate, and his relationship with Li Dachui was much deeper than his own.
Besides, Yao Dali is older than himself.
Although Guanwai has never been known for its naval skills, the two had previously fought against each other in the waters of Zigui and Badong, and Director Wang knew that the other party's water skills were not bad.
And the hundreds of warships brought by the opponent are much higher in performance than the warships under his own command.
Don’t underestimate this advantage,
In water battles, the good performance of a ship can sometimes determine the outcome in an instant.
For example, if two ships are clashing, and one is faster and has a smaller turning radius, then it is very likely that when you are halfway through the turn, the other ship has already hit you.
Just this small amount can kill you.
Director Wang humbly asked Yao Dali to serve as the commander of this navy.
Director Wang still remembers Yao Dali’s expression at that time fresh.
The naval general from outside the customs looked at Director Wang as if he were a monster, "General Wang, the appointment of a military commander is such a serious matter. Once the order is given, we can only resolutely carry it out. Son, how can we give and take things privately? You don’t want your head anymore, but Yao still wants to live and make contributions!”
These words choked Director Wang to death.
Just be polite, okay?
He thought the other party was angry.
But later cooperation proved that he really thought too much.
Yao Dali didn't have much respect for their general, but he really didn't give much in the slightest when executing orders.
As time went by, Wang Daocai learned about the military system of the Beiting Protectorate and related codes and military laws from Yao Dali.
A soldier with control is a general without control.
After learning this, Director Wang finally felt relieved.
With this as a foundation, the cooperation between the two has gradually become better.
Of course, Director Wang is still very grateful to Yao Dali.
Sometimes rules are rules, but reality is reality. Yao Dali really wants to put small shoes on his director Wang, but he really has no way to do it.
The Queen Mother has also confessed in private that they must keep a low profile now.
They will all work under Li Dachui in the future. Being able to maintain a good relationship with these veterans from outside the customs is also good for themselves. Of great benefit.
So, he responded to Yao Dali's request.
Yao Dali is actually very satisfied.
In the past, when he was outside the customs, although he was the person in charge of the navy, he really had nothing to fight for. He worked more as the captain of the transportation team. Occasionally, he was the happiest thing when he had the opportunity to suppress water bandits.
He also went to Xuanwu Prefecture and took a large group of people to go to sea to study for a period of time. However, after only going to sea once or twice, Yao Dali knew that it was not his area of expertise. No matter how hard I work, I can't compare to Cai Ming and Cai Tianci and his son. Even the leaders of the experienced voyage fleets, and even the pirates who were beaten to death by the Beiting Navy fleet, are better than me. The direction of my efforts is the inland river.
After arriving in Shu, he quickly formed a powerful fleet. Ambitious, he easily captured Zigui and Badong in his first battle out of Shu. Then he met Director Wang in the land of Yiling.
After that battle, Yao Dali knew that his actual combat experience was really insufficient. If the performance of his own warships was not far superior to that of his opponents, he would have suffered a huge defeat in the battle of Yiling.
Fortunately, after the Danyang coup, Director Wang returned in a hurry, and the two never fought again. When they met again, they had become comrades-in-arms.
Yao Dali is a very motivated person,
so he humbly asked Director Wang for his experience and skills in water warfare,
because Director Wang wanted to compete with others outside the customs The generals have a good relationship, so they don't hesitate to pass the news on.
Director Wang thinks that Yao Dali is a trusted general of Li Dachui, but Yao Dali's own family knows his own affairs, so how can he be regarded as a direct descendant of Li Dachui?
It's just that there are really no generals outside the pass who are good at inland warfare, so I chose the taller one among the short ones.
I am lucky enough to be the one who stands out,
but if I don't work hard to grow,
I will be eliminated soon.
Because when he arrived in the pass and the south, Yao Dali had clearly felt the pressure.
People who are proficient in water warfare have a lot of energy on board!
Just because you have the upper hand doesn't mean you can stay ahead.
You cannot seize the opportunity that comes first, first served. Once you are suppressed, it will be even more difficult to stand up again.
Now that a guy like Director Wang, who has a strong family background, is willing to teach everything he has to offer, he would be stupid if he didn’t study hard.
You must know that knowledge like this is generally not spread to others.
However, Yao Dali also discovered a shortcoming of Chu's navy, that is, his understanding of water areas was only limited to certain generals.
And in the two years since he came to Shuzhong, the results of a lot of basic work he had done were really shocked when Director Wang was placed in front of him.
A thick stack of maps clearly described the hydrological and geographical data of the entire river.
Looking through these maps, Director Wang was extremely surprised.
Of course he is clear. The Wang family has passed down the history of this river. They know the details of this river very clearly. However, this is the confidence of their Wang family. But now, Yao Dali took it out and roughly Turn over, there are some places that you know better than you know.
And that's not all, because Yao Dali also brought out weather data over the years and the impact of weather on the river. Looking at these things individually, you may not think there is anything special about them, but when they are connected, they become extremely important. information.
Collecting, sorting, and analyzing, Beiting Protectorate has always attached great importance to these things. Zhiqiuyuan has a statistics department and a department specializing in cartography. It has always been familiar with doing these things.
What does it mean to combine two good things into one? This is it!
After seeing these things, Director Wang no longer had any intention to hide the naval combat skills, because combat skills can be explored. Instead, Yao Dali took out these things. More precious.
Shu County Navy has these detailed information and more advanced warships. Even if they don't have themselves, they will have a powerful navy in the future.
The two generals cooperated sincerely without any small thoughts of their own. Even if the people below wanted to act like monsters, they would be suppressed in a few times. Although the two naval divisions were actually merged less than two months ago, their combat effectiveness has already been Rough steps formed.
In Director Wang's words, as long as there is one more battle, as long as this battle is won, then their navy will be able to dominate the river and have no rivals.
Yao Dali stood on the bow of the boat with his sword pressed, watching the river water hitting the high waves on the bow of the boat. The sound of eagles was heard in the sky. When he raised his head, he saw the eagle above his head. Keeping around in circles and watching the eagle's flight path, Yao Dali chuckled.
"Second order, the enemy vanguard is still at most five miles away from us, prepare to fight! Winning the first battle will greatly boost morale."
