Chapter 396 Change of Thought
However, it is not an easy task for Zhou Yu to crack the underlying structure of solidifying Xuan Xiang on the other side, otherwise Yuan Shao would have already launched the project to solidify Xuan Xiang.
Although Yuan Shao continues to implement the backward system of knowledge monopoly, under the pressure of Liu Bei, Yuan Shao also had to order the lifting of a part of the Yuan family's collection of books related to Xuan Xiang's military formation for the purpose of The civil servants and generals under his command studied it and improved their skills.
However, Yuan Shao only opened up part of the book collection, and copied it from his own home. He did not force the civil servants and generals under his account to take out their knowledge for others to study, learn and exchange.
As a firm supporter of knowledge monopoly, the Maison will never spread the knowledge that it relies on to maintain its status when given the choice. Even in Yingchuan Academy, which was established by the Yingchuan family, most of the knowledge taught in it is the essence of some widely circulated classics. At most, it is added with the original classics of various schools that can be passed down, but the interpretation of the original classics is Don't think about the essence, that is the real heirloom of the family.
However, the collection of books in Yingchuan Academy is enough for most people to study. After all, the attitude of scholars in this era is not as perfunctory as most people in later generations. They can really read a book for a lifetime. of.
As for those geniuses who need to read more classics to enrich themselves, they don’t need others to care. After all, their knowledge and wisdom will always let them find what they want, or someone is willing to invest in them. This is also one of the main reasons why aristocratic families are more likely to form factions.
In addition to providing a place for reading and studying books, Yingchuan Academy also plays an important role, that is, it invites certain famous Confucian scholars who are rarely seen by others to serve as teachers, similar to Xun Shuang. Kind of, do you think someone with insufficient qualifications can easily meet and ask him for advice?
However, it can be done in Yingchuan Academy. As long as Xun Shuang is still teaching in the academy, then the students in the academy are qualified to consult Xun Shuang, whether they are the most ordinary common people or those with family backgrounds. The descendants of poor families, or the children of famous and powerful families, could consult Xun Shuang in Yingchuan Academy.
Famous teachers are also resources controlled by aristocratic families. No matter how exquisite the knowledge and wisdom recorded in the classics are, even if they are annotated by sages, there are some things that cannot be learned by just reading books. This can be reflected at this time. The role of a teacher has emerged.
Teachers not only teach students knowledge and knowledge, but also wisdom in dealing with people. A good teacher can also guide students to integrate various scattered knowledge and wisdom into a systematic system for understanding things.

"In this battle, we must be prepared to be defeated and retain as much strength as possible for the follow-up." Zhou Yu's face remained calm and he just said to Li Yan calmly , in sharp contrast to Li Yan's miserable expression.
Li Yan was silent for a while and nodded silently. He did not ask Zhou Yu why he didn't withdraw now or why he was still fighting Liu Beijun here, because he seemed very embarrassed. stupid.
They just lost a night attack, and they plan to withdraw completely. So they might as well surrender now. Anyway, they will retreat when they see Liu Bei's army in the future.
However, as Zhou Yu said, they are likely to lose this battle, so they must be prepared to retreat. This is fundamentally different from the behavior of planning to withdraw without fighting just now. This is called Calculate defeat before victory is calculated. This is a military principle recognized by all military saints. These younger generations are just following the rules.
"Okay, you go take care of the wounds on your body first, and then you will lead the troops to fight." Zhou Yu waved to Li Yan and sent him to take care of the wounds. Li Yan stood There was a pool of dark red blood dripping down after just a short while, which made people feel worried just looking at it, and Li Yan didn't have the strong recovery power of internal energy leaving the body.
“No—hiss!” Li Yan originally wanted to salute Zhou Yu, but he didn’t expect that the wound would be involved. Suddenly, a heartbreaking pain hit Li Yan’s sensory nerves, causing Li Yan’s face to tremble continuously. The ground was twitching, and his right hand unconsciously touched the place where the wound was torn.
Zhou Yu was attracted by Li Yan who gasped for air. After turning his head, he saw Li Yan who was touching his chest with a ferocious expression. Li Yan looked like it was really painful.
"Guard, take him to the military doctor." Looking at Li Yan who was speechless in pain, Zhou Yu waved his hand and called the nearby guards.
Following Zhou Yu's call, two of the hundreds of guards standing guard quickly walked up to Li Yan. After saluting Zhou Yu and apologizing to Li Yan, they directly picked up Li Yan and ran to the camp where the military doctor was, without any regard. Li Yan's injuries.
“Hiss!” Li Yan gasped again. This time, the pain was not just in one wound, but in pain all over his body.
However, Li Yan did not stop the actions of the two guards. After all, he really needed a military doctor to treat his wounds in his current state. His own internal energy alone could not restore his injuries in a short time. , so it is better to involve military doctors. Although military doctors only apply gold sore medicine on the wounds, it is better than nothing.
After quietly looking at Li Yan who was taken away by the guards for a while, Zhou Yu turned back and continued to look at the North Bank, looking at the solidified Xuan Xiang in mid-air on the North Bank, although Zhou Yu could only see one for the rain. The solidified Xuanxiang was locked by Yang Ji, but Zhou Yu still watched it with interest. After all, the lock was also part of the solidified Xuanxiang. If the underlying structure of the lock was cracked, part of the underlying structure of the solidified .
"Commander, our navy has blocked the river. The patrol ship at the outlet reported that no trace of the Qingzhou Navy was found." Jiang Qin jumped out of the darkness and said to Zhou Yu.
"When blocking the river, remember to pay attention to the flowing arrows on the opposite side. They are arrow attacks that can penetrate our ships." Zhou Yu told Jiang Qin.
What Gan Ning brought to him last time was so profound. Zhou Yu really didn’t expect that water battles could be fought in this way. It was not a gang fight or exchanging arrows on the boat. Instead of shooting arrows, they shoot extremely powerful arrows, with the main purpose of sinking enemy naval vessels.
The education Zhou Yu received before was mainly aimed at attacking the soldiers on the enemy's warships. Occasionally, there would be plans to sink enemy warships. After all, expensive toys like warships are not just casual. It can be built by just finding a piece of wood. The general navy tactics are to effectively kill the enemy navy soldiers, then capture the enemy navy warships, and incorporate the enemy navy warships into your own fleet to expand your own fleet. Combat strength.
However, Gan Ning's previous style of using powerful arrows to attack warships was very different from traditional navy tactics. His main purpose was to sink enemy navy warships from the beginning. Although the sinking of the warship will cause a lot of damage, if the warship is sunk, there is no way to capture the enemy's warship. If there is no warship captured, how can we quickly expand the size of the fleet in a short period of time? ?
This reminded Zhou Yu of the Lu family that was taken away by Chen Xi and the others last time. The Lu family in Jiangdong was one of the few Han families that had mastered a full set of warship construction technology. Moreover, when the Lu family left Lujiang, they also left most of the As for the shipbuilding workers and equipment that can be taken away, I heard that the Lu family has now moved the shipyard to Donglai County, Qingzhou. Fenggao even built a port in Donglai County.
Perhaps it was because of the Lu Shipyard standing behind him that Gan Ning dared to use the naval tactic of directly attacking enemy warships. Although using this tactic may be countered by the enemy or even defeated. The enemy sank one of his own warships.
But with the Lu Shipyard providing warships behind him, Gan Ning was not afraid that the enemy would sink his own warships. After all, his group defense style was not a vegetarian, and arrows were not powerful enough. It can't be penetrated at all, so how many arrows can be penetrated?
It is true that Jiangdong is rich in archers, but what the Jiangdong archers are good at is arrow strikes, and they have not developed many archer talent systems for powerful arrow strikes.
"By the way, how are the preparations for the warship's repulsive defense?" Thinking of Gan Ning's powerful arrows and the impressive group defense style, Zhou Yu thought of the one he built himself Repulsion defense architecture.
Even though Zhou Yu quickly mastered the secret techniques of group defense and self-circulation in the original time and space, at that time Zhou Yu had already been working hard in the naval system for a long time and had a certain understanding of the various secret techniques used by the navy. With his understanding and Gan Ning's explanation of Kushan's naval secrets, Zhou Yu allowed Zhou Yu to directly turn Saisi Selian into his own when he used various naval secrets, even if he could not change them on the spot. It becomes your own, and you can also reverse it later.
But now, Zhou Yu, who had just taken over Jiangxia Navy for a few years, would need a lot of time to understand Gan Ning's group defense and cloud reserve secrets.
However, Zhou Yu's current requirement is just to defend against Gan Ning's extremely powerful arrows, so Zhou Yu built a repulsive defense structure that can deflect arrows.
"The repulsion field can indeed effectively defend against powerful arrows, but we have very few soldiers with repulsion talents. Whether we can gather the number of people in a legion is a question." Jiang Qin shook his head and said. , he had also seen Gan Ning's powerful arrows, and he also knew the purpose of Zhou Yu's repulsion structure.
However, the question now is not whether the repulsion field can defend against light arrow strikes like Gan Ning's, but whether they can gather enough soldiers with repulsion talents. After all, there are few people. I can't activate the repulsion field.
"Well, I understand." Zhou Yu's expression was still calm and indifferent, as if Jiang Qin's problem could be solved easily. Jiang Qin looked at him with admiration. Regardless of whether Zhou Yu had a solution at this time, just this Jiang Qin's character of being calm and calm is worthy of Jiang Qin's recognition and learning.
"Then how should we solve this problem?" Although I admire Zhou Yu's character very much, the problem still needs to be solved. After all, no matter how strong the character is, it is useless if it cannot solve the problem.
"Since the direction of elite talent is not feasible, then we should go in the direction of developing secret arts." Zhou Yu's fingertips slightly wavered the strings and gave his own solution.
"Secret Technique?" Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment, a little confused as to what Zhou Yu was thinking. After all, people like them had little need for it, or for people of their level, even if they didn't have the secret technique, Can do those operations.
The difference is that the secret technique is based on points and surfaces, and then leverages the essence of heaven and earth to build a corresponding essence model and produce corresponding phenomena.
And they, those who have inner energy separated from the body and spiritual wise men, use their powerful inner energy and spiritual power to forcibly distort reality, causing the essence of heaven and earth to display certain phenomena.
So, for those who are truly strong, secret arts are just some tricks and are not worth pursuing. Excessive pursuit of the power of secret arts will lead to instability in their own strength.
"Well, you heard it right, I'm talking about secret techniques." Zhou Yu nodded calmly, not feeling at all that there was anything wrong with using secret techniques as a top wise man who had awakened his spiritual talent. Yes, after all, being able to activate the repulsion field is the key, and the other things are not important at all.
"Yes, why can't it be a secret skill, or should it be a secret skill!" Jiang Qin suddenly realized that the secret skill does not require a number of people to maintain it like elite talents. He only needs one A person with internal Qi leaving the body or a spiritual wise man who can use secret techniques will suffice.
"So, Commander, have you developed the secret technique?" Jiang Qin asked Zhou Yu with his eyes shining. He couldn't wait to see what the secret technique of repulsion in Zhou Yu's mouth looked like. .
"No, I did not develop this secret technique." Zhou Yu shook his head. Although he had the idea of developing the secret technique, a lot of affairs were on him during this period. Where did he find the time to develop the secret technique? Ah, it’s good to be able to complete the secret technique of sound wave detection, and the priority level of the secret technique of repulsion is not high, not to mention that there are legions with the talent of repulsion to support it, so why worry.
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Jiang Qin was silent for a moment and said, "I understand." He also saw Zhou Yu's hard work during this period, and it was really unrealistic to find time to develop secret techniques.
"Then, the patrol ship at the seaport did not detect the Qingzhou fleet?" Jiang Qin asked Zhou Yu, the secret of repulsion will be gone if it is gone. Anyway, it is not that there are no legions with the talent of repulsion. , at most Zhou Yu had to work hard when mobilizing the repulsion field.
"Continue to monitor and report any situation immediately. You are no match for Gan Ning on the water." Zhou Yu said to Jiang Qin, bluntly stating that Jiang Qin was no match for Gan Ning in a water battle. thing.
"I know, Governor, you don't have to tell me this specifically." Jiang Qin said with a bitter smile.
