Chapter 307 Jiangdong Arson Enthusiasts
Heavy rain poured down from the dark rain clouds towards Shucheng and nearby areas.
A heavy rain of this level can paralyze Shucheng's drainage system in up to a quarter of an hour, causing serious urban flooding.
"Hmph, are you still resisting? Then let me add some more ingredients for you to experience the cold secret technique derived from Zijing's talent."
Chen Xi looked at the people who were still resisting. Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others, who continued to launch legion attacks with the intention of defeating Yuyun, once again started another preparation of their own.
In the rain clouds over Shucheng, a secret ritual constructed from spiritual power was activated by Chen Xi.
Although the legion attacks of Sun Ce and others would occasionally destroy some of the secret rituals in the rain clouds, how could Chen Xi, a guy who advocates nested military formations, not consider this possibility.
Sun Ce and others used legion attacks with the intention of breaking through the clouds and dispersing the cold rainstorm, but the result was that it had no effect.
Because Chen Xi nested multiple cold secret techniques into one large cold secret technique.
Even if Sun Ce and others break one of the secret techniques, it will not affect the other secret techniques. At most, it will affect the nested large-scale cold secret technique.
Although the legion attack of Sun Ce and others can defeat Yuyun, it is not like Chen Xi will not redeploy Yuyun to make up for the destroyed Yuyun.
Looking at the shivering soldiers who were poured by the cold rain, Sun Ce quickly used his inner energy to open a barrier for Zhou Yu, and asked Zhou Yu worriedly: "Gong Jin, we What should we do now?"
Zhou Yu frowned and did not answer Sun Ce's question first. Instead, he looked around at the soldiers who were shivering in the cold rain.
Zhou Yu felt the feedback that his spiritual talent brought to him, "You really think highly of us who have been partial to the army all the way. Six talent owners came to us at once."
"Six One!?" Sun Ce originally wanted to hear how Zhou Yu would solve Leng Yu's problem, but he didn't expect to hear such explosive news from Zhou Yu.
"It should be a civil servant and five generals with inner energy separated from the body." Zhou Yu said calmly.
As for why Zhou Yu could not detect Liu Bei and Cao Cao, the two awakeners of monarch talent.
The most likely reason is that Zhou Yu has no conceptual knowledge related to the monarch's talent, and Liu Bei's legion talent has been merged into the monarch's talent, so it was not detected.
"There are actually five generals with inner energy separated from the body?" Sun Ce's eyes widened. He did not mention the civil servant, because Zhou Yu could handle it, but he had to let him deal with the generals.
Sun Ce swallowed his saliva. If there were only two or three generals with inner energy separated from the body, Sun Ce could delay it for a while, but with five inner energy separated from the body, Sun Ce felt like he had to send it.
"There are only five generals with inner energy separated from the body. It is not a big problem. When the clouds are pressed, hundreds of elite soldiers will be deployed to hold them back.
The important thing is the chill contained in the rain. If there is no If we can dispel this coldness, it will be difficult for the soldiers to display their combat effectiveness," Zhou Yu said with a calm expression.
Seeing Zhou Yu's calm look, Sun Ce's anxious mood calmed down instantly. As long as Zhou Yu hasn't started to worry, there is no need to worry. Zhou Yu will definitely have a way to solve the problem at hand.
"Then what should we do?" Sun Ce acted as a perfect listener and asked the question that he and the surrounding generals wanted to ask most.
"When I was studying the Xuan Xiang Formation recently, I came up with an idea about water and fire, which can be used in this scene." Zhou Yu said calmly.
Perhaps Zhou Yu's expression was too bland, so the generals, including Sun Ce, believed that Zhou Yu's research on the Xuanxiang Formation could solve the problem encountered this time.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and set it up. We will all obey your command." Sun Ce said, holding Zhou Yu's hand.
The rest of the generals also looked at Zhou Yu expectantly, believing that Zhou Yu could lead them to victory. Even if it was not victory, it would be a successful breakout.
"Okay." Zhou Yu raised the flag with a calm expression, "All officers and soldiers listen to the order, follow my command, and rise up!"
With Zhou Yu's order, Sun Ce's army began It started to move, and the clouds began to change with the changes in the army array.
The effect of the initial Xuanxiang Formation, which was originally used to cover the figure, was not cancelled, but was integrated into another Xuanxiang Formation.
The misty fog that shrouded Sun Ce's army turned into the color of burning clouds. The Xuanxiang Formation used the heat converted from the clouds to dispel all the chill in the rain.
When the cold raindrops fell on the soldiers, they turned into warm water drops.
"It can only be said that he is indeed the Jiangdong arsonist Zhou Zhouyu Gongjin. He has already understood the fire method at this time." Chen Xi looked at the fire cloud burning not far away.
"It seems that Zichuan, your idea of using rain and cold to delay the enemy's movements has failed." Cao Cao said, who didn't know when he appeared again.
"Although the idea of delaying the enemy's mobility failed, it was not without any results." Chen Xi smiled and did not refute Cao Cao.
"Look, didn't we consume a large wave of enemy energy?" Chen Xi pointed at Sun Cejun's cloud, which was one-third smaller in size.
The fire-attribute Xuanxiang formation used by Zhou Yu today was something he had just researched, and he had not had time to optimize it, so it consumed a lot of cloud energy.
"As a result, the suppression of the enemy's cloud energy has been greatly reduced for several generals." Chen Xi looked at Cao Cao, only Dian Wei was behind him.
"There are only two generals, Sun Boxu and Zhou Youping, among the enemy forces. I guess you generals can win a victory, right?" Chen Xi said to Cao Cao with a smile.
"Of course!" Cao Cao agreed to Chen Xi's words without hesitation, and he must also agree to Chen Xi's words.
Otherwise...Cao Cao doesn't know what slanders Chen Xi, a guy like Chen Xi, will give Liu Beijin.
After finally regaining his original intention of conquering the West, Cao Cao did not want to lose the organizational structure that he had finally preserved just because of his temporary exuberance.
"Then I'll leave it to Duke Cao." Chen Xi smiled and nodded to Cao Cao. After all, except for two-thirds of the Qingzhou fleet, Chen Xi really didn't have any other legions.
At this time, Liu Bei's foresight in bringing Cao Cao out can be reflected.
Well, the matter of bringing Cao Cao out really has nothing to do with Chen Xi. It was Liu Bei who first brought it up.
Cao Cao's face was distorted for a moment. Chen Xi definitely did it on purpose.
"Leave it to me." Cao Cao took Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and others off the ship with an expressionless expression.
The next journey requires speed charging of the cavalry units under Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan.
"You still like to scare people so much." Liu Bei shook his head and was speechless about Chen Xi's behavior.
"People like Mr. Cao always need to be frightened from time to time, otherwise he will swell like a dolphin." Chen Xi explained his reasons to Liu Bei. "Forget it, I won't express any more opinions. Anyway, you must have a reason for doing things."
Liu Bei thought about it carefully and thought it would be better not to interfere with Chen Xi. He But I don’t think I can clearly see Chen Xi’s long-term plan.
Since Chen Xi did this, he must have his reasons. It feels abnormal now, but it’s just that he can’t see what Chen Xi foresees.
Yang Ji has told these people a long time ago that when you don’t understand Chen Xi’s operations, don’t make noises in Chen Xi’s ears. That’s just because you think you understand. In fact, you don’t understand at all. I don’t know what Chen Xi is doing.
Before Chen Xi's plan was revealed, no one could see clearly what Chen Xi was doing.
Maybe you saw Chen Xi preparing for one thing, but in fact Chen Xi was preparing for another thing.
After hearing what Liu Bei said, Chen Xi twitched the corners of his mouth a few times. What did that guy Yang Ji say to Liu Bei?
It’s okay to get vaccinated with Liu Bei, after all, many of his actions require Liu Bei’s cooperation.
However, that guy Yang Ji actually chose to mess up and only explained it to Liu Bei. The others didn't say anything at all, saying that they would let the smart people find out by themselves.
Only what they discover on their own can truly convince them of just how huge Chen Xi's figure is in the internal affairs and logistics sector.
"By the way, is there really no problem over there in Chaohu? The various skilled craftsmen there will be the backbone of our future Donglai Shipyard." Liu Bei directly pulled the craftsmen from the Lujia Shipyard in Chaohu. Under his own command.
After all, they are not a fire brigade to put out fires. Their trip to Jiangdong to rescue the Lu family will cost rescue fees.
Of course, Liu Bei also knew that the Lu family’s archives, documents, books and wealth had been burned in a fire, so the kind-hearted Liu Bei used various craftsmen in the Lu family shipyard in Chaohu to pay off the money.
"Xuan Degong, you have to believe in Ziyi's ability. He will handle everything in Chaohu." Chen Xi expressed his belief in Tai Shici's ability.
"But, isn't it said that Jiangxia's navy is very strong? Can Ziyi, an army general, really be able to command the navy?" Liu Bei said worriedly.
It's not that Liu Bei doesn't believe in Tai Shi Ci's ability. If Tai Shi Ci was on land, Liu Bei would never have any other ideas.
However, Taishi Ci is now leading one-third of the Qingzhou fleet. Liu Bei knows how difficult it is for an army general to transfer to a navy general.
It is not just a matter of learning water skills, learning how to fight on a ship as if it were on plain ground, and learning to operate a ship, then you can become a qualified naval officer.
Liu Bei believed that Taishi Ci, who was recommended by Yang Ji and Chen Xi, had the qualifications to become a naval general.
However, it wasn’t long before Taishi Ci transferred from an army general to a navy general. Can he really command a fleet by himself?
You know, Yang Ji's initial positioning for Tai Shici was the Marine Corps.
“The Jiangxia Navy is indeed very strong, but it is the Jiangxia Navy under the command of Zhou Gongjin.
Without Zhou Gongjin’s command, the Jiangxia Navy would have relied on our ships With the performance advantages, there is no problem in blocking Jiangxia Navy." Chen Xi shook his head.
"As for whether Ziyi can command one-third of the Qingzhou fleet, Mr. Xuande should not mention it again. Ziyi's qualifications in naval warfare will allow him to quickly learn the necessary skills for naval warfare. All tactics and techniques," Chen Xi said calmly.
"Wen Xiang, do you think what I said is right?" Chen Xi suddenly asked Xu Sheng, who temporarily commanded one-third of the Qingzhou fleet.
"Huh?" Xu Sheng was confused. Why did he suddenly ask about him? He was just a minion. You must know that when he was in the Danyang Department of Xuzhou, he was just a military prince.
Even after Xuzhou became a territory under Liu Bei's rule and was transferred to the Qingzhou Fleet, he was still just a military prince.
Even though Chen Xi and Liu Bei ordered him to temporarily command one-third of the Qingzhou fleet this time, Xu Sheng was still essentially a military prince.
"No need to avoid taboos, just express your opinion directly." Chen Xi waved his hand to signal Xu Sheng not to be nervous.
"I think Chen Hou is right." Xu Sheng suppressed his blush and said seriously.
Although Xu Sheng felt that if he did it himself, he might be able to do better than Tai Shici.
But Xu Sheng is not a simple reckless man after all, and his temperament is quite smooth.
What's more, Xu Sheng doesn't think Tai Shici can't do it, but he will do better if he is allowed to do it.
After all, Taishi Ci was born in the north and had never been exposed to water fighting before. It is normal for him to be a little green now.
However, Xu Sheng still recognized Taishi Ci's qualifications. After all, he could command a fleet, so how could he not have some qualifications?
Liu Bei took a look at Xu Sheng, who was temporarily promoted by Chen Xi, and then said no more.
Maybe this guy is also a gifted party in water battles. The gifted party is the most unreasonable group of people.
Zhou Yu suddenly looked in a certain direction, and Sun Ce seemed to feel something and looked in the same direction as Zhou Yu.
"Bo Fu, you take people to stop them, and I will organize the defense line." Zhou Yu said to Sun Ce calmly.
"Okay." Sun Ce didn't say much. He led his personal guards and stepped forward to stop the cavalry troops led by Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan.
[Damn, how did the cavalry on the opposite side run in such muddy conditions? 】Zhou Yu was puzzled.
However, now is not the time to think about these temporarily useless things. The most important thing now is to withdraw the army into Shucheng.
"Gong Jin, assist me in using legion attacks to force their cavalry to slow down!" Sun Ce shouted to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu did not answer, but silently mobilized his soldiers and gathered cloud energy to bless Sun Ce.
The remaining cloud energy of Sun Cejun was poured directly into Sun Ce under Zhou Yu's control.
Sun Ce, dressed in golden armor, was infused with cloud energy and wildly displayed his legionary talent. He needed the help of his soldiers to integrate the cloud energy.
A golden sun rose slowly amid the pouring rain, even affecting the dark clouds in the sky, making the dark clouds show signs of dispersing.
"Wonderful talent, the legion attacked and interrupted Sun Bofu's movements." Xiahou Dun greeted Xiahou Yuan.
Sun Ce on the other side also discovered the actions of Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan.
