Chapter 398 Testing by both sides
Among the five basic secret techniques of the navy created by Saixi Selian, the secret technique of wave should be the easiest to learn, followed by the secret technique of cloud reserve. Even Zhou Yu now wants to It is also very simple to learn.
Although Yang Ji has never seen the underlying structure of Saisi Selian’s secret technique, its core concept does come from Saisi Selian, so even if Yang Ji’s secret technique is different from Saisi Selian’s secret technique, The technical structure is different, but the difficulty should be similar.
So, among the five basic secret techniques, except for the self-circulation and group defense techniques, Zhou Yu should be able to learn them very easily with Zhou Yu's ability, and it doesn't even take much time, especially The Secret Technique of Waves is a very simple secret technique that can be learned almost by seeing it.
However, among the five basic secret arts, one secret technique is quite special, and that is the cloud gas reserve secret technique that requires the existence of physical creations to store cloud gas. The need for physical creation is the difference between the cloud gas reserve secret technique and the cloud gas reserve secret technique. The biggest difference between other secret techniques.
When Gan Ning fought against Zhou Yu on the Yangtze River, although he had used the cloud gas channel solidification secret technique, and the cloud gas chain secret technique still needed to be connected in parallel with the cloud gas reserve secret technique, Zhou Yu could not see the cloud gas storage warehouse hidden in the cabin. , not to mention the underlying structure of the cloud energy reserve secret technique, so it is still very difficult for Zhou Yu to come up with the cloud energy reserve secret technique.
Of course, Yang Ji did not deny Zhou Yu's ability to develop the corresponding secret skills on his own. After all, it was Zhou Yu who was standing there. In terms of potential, Zhou Yu was the well-deserved number one person in the Han Navy. Although The current Zhou Yu may not be able to defeat Gan Ning, who has the advantage of battleships and secret techniques.
Without the cloud gas reserve warehouse, even if Zhou Yu can use cloud gas chains to connect the warships, he cannot maintain it for a long time. After all, the use of secret techniques also requires the consumption of cloud gas, and Zhou Yu will not do it himself now. It is a circulation secret technique, so Zhou Yu's current cloud energy chain is not long-lasting.
This is also the reason why Zhou Yu used iron ropes to cross the river when he blocked the river. In Zhou Yu's current state, iron chains may be more useful than cloud chains.
"Well, Ziyu, what were you talking about just now?" Cheng Yu seemed to have heard something and turned around to ask Yang Ji. He seemed to have heard Yang Ji muttering about why Zhou Yu wanted to use the iron rope to cross the river.
"It's nothing, I just thought of the reason why Zhou Gongjin didn't use the cloud channel to solidify the secret technique." Yang Ji shook his head. These are not things that cannot be spread. With Cheng Yu's wisdom, they can do it even if Yang Ji doesn't tell them. Guess the reason behind it.
"The reason why Zhou Gongjin didn't use the cloud gas channel solidification secret technique?" Cheng Yu frowned, and then his brows relaxed. He had now guessed what Yang Ji meant. Before, it was just Because he didn't expect the secret of the Navy, now with Yang Ji's reminder, it is easy to think of what Zhou Yu wants to do.
"By the way, is Zhou Gongjin's method really effective?" Chen Qun, who had gone back to the future, also asked Yang Ji. He also guessed Zhou Yu's purpose of setting up the iron chain.
In addition to blocking the river, there is probably the idea of intercepting the Ganning-Ningqingzhou naval fleet. Although I don’t know if it will be useful, I have to try it before saying it. Maybe it will have other effects.
Yang Ji thought for a while and said: "It should be useful. After all, he used iron ropes to tie the battleships together. At least when using certain defense methods, the defense circle can cover more The battleship is on board.”
Yang Ji had also seen the battle report submitted by Gan Ning and the others earlier. Of course he knew what methods Gan Ning used to deal with the Jiangxia navy. How could the Jiangxia navy, which had withstood a blow, have no defensive measures against this.
Cheng Yu, Chen Qun and others are still a little confused. Although they are not very familiar with surface warfare, they also know that surface warships are not very close to each other, especially fleets in combat postures. There is no way a warship can get that close.
Otherwise, it may not be the enemy's warships that sink first, but their friendly forces or their own warships. And if they get too close, it will also affect the performance of each warship.
"Oh, you have to believe Zhou Gongjin. Do you think your water fighting skills are better than Zhou Gongjin's?" Yang Ji curled his lips. These guys are really unfounded.
"It seems that our focus is wrong." Chen Qun shook his head. They are not on Zhou Yu's side. Why should they consider Zhou Yu? The sinking of Jiangxia Navy has nothing to do with them. It doesn't matter.
After all, the warships of the Jiangxia Navy are old antiques for many years. Even Gan Ning, who is eager to develop the Qingzhou Navy, would not have the idea of a Jiangxia Navy warship. How stupid would he be to ignore the better performance and power? Instead of buying new and larger warships, they will pursue the old antique warships of the Jiangxia Navy.
However, Gan Ning is envious of the Jiangxia navy's navy soldiers. After all, the Qingzhou navy's team is basically selected by him from the Yangtze River bandits. They have been training at sea for so long. Although On the surface, they look good, but compared to the professional sailors of the Jiangxia Navy, the professional quality of the sailors of the Qingzhou Navy is indeed much lower.
"So, you'd better be ready to cross the river. As soon as Gan Xingba arrives, we will start crossing the river to fight the enemy." Yang Ji said to Cao Cao, Chen Qun and others.
"Hey, why don't you give Zhou Gongjin a little greeting gift? After all, that guy Gan Xingba won't be here for a while. How about we say hello to Zhou Gongjin? Didn't they come to sneak attack us last night? We also We should exchange courtesy with the other side." Cheng Yu suggested to Yang Ji, he did not have the demeanor of a humble gentleman like Chen Qun.
“Is this a greeting gift for Zhou Gongjin?” Yang Ji pondered for a while and felt that Cheng Yu’s suggestion seemed pretty good. After all, Zhou Yu gave him a surprise greeting gift last night. He can't help but reciprocate politely. This is a fine tradition in the Central Plains.
"But, we don't seem to have the means to attack the opposing warships here." Chen Qun expressed his concerns as if a clever woman was struggling to make a meal without straw.
What they brought this time was all infantry. Although the Danyang elite also worked as archers, it was probably not enough to cause damage to the warships on the river. The Danyang archers were not powerful enough. ah.
"This is not necessarily true. We just want to give Zhou Gongjin a meeting gift, and we don't necessarily have to sink many naval warships." Yang Ji waved his hand and said not to worry, he could solve these problems. "Uncle Zhi, the mutant Danyang elite under your command should be able to work part-time as archers, right?" Yang Ji turned to greet Chen Dao.
After hearing Yang Ji greet Chen Dao and asking if the Baijie soldiers were part-time archers, Chen Qun, Cao Cao and others were a little confused. Why were Danyang archers suddenly summoned, and Danyang archers Can the arrows penetrate the defense of the opposing battleship?
Chen Dao didn't seem to expect that Yang Ji would greet him, so he was obviously stunned for a moment. After coming back to his senses, Chen Dao quickly replied: "General, you also said that the Baijie soldiers under my command are a variant of Danyang soldiers, so Danyang elites will "Baijie Bing can also do what Danyang Elites can do." Chen Dao's face and voice were very firm, and he was very confident in the Bai Jie Bing he had personally trained.
"That's okay." Yang Ji nodded unequivocally, and then said to Chen Dao: "Go and gather the Baili soldiers, remember to ask them to bring their bows and arrows, they will be needed later. "
"Nuo." Chen Dao didn't ask Yang Ji what he wanted to do when he summoned the Baiji soldiers. That was not what he should consider. What he needed to consider now was how to satisfy Yang Ji's request. After all, he had heard it just now. Yang Ji and the others discussed giving Zhou Yu a surprise meeting gift.
Soon, Chen Dao summoned all the officers and soldiers of the Baijie soldiers, which fully demonstrated the strong organizational power and elite level of the Baijie soldiers. It can only be said that they are worthy of the Imperial Guard level.
"Report! Report to the Governor, a legion has gathered on the other side of the river, pointing at the fleet on the river, not knowing what to do." A messenger rushed into the tent and reported to Zhou Yu Watching the changes on the other side.
The generals who were discussing countermeasures in the big tent heard the words of the messenger and immediately stood up and stared at the soldier. The momentum on his body involuntarily pressed against the messenger, so that a drop of cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the messenger and he trembled. He looked at Zhou Yu who was looking up.
Zhou Yu glared at those guys who were releasing their momentum randomly, then turned to the messenger and asked: "Besides this, did the people on the other side do anything else?"
The messenger wiped it. The sweat on his forehead broke out and he said to Zhou Yu: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the Baijie soldiers brought their bows and arrows with them when they gathered. They are gathering on the shore to point at our fleet." The messenger told what he saw. After he came out, he had been in the field of messenger for a long time, so of course he knew what to say and what not to say.
After listening to the words of the messenger, Zhou Yu turned directly to Jiang Qin and said: "Gong Yi, immediately mobilize the prepared repulsion troops to board the ship. If the other side fires arrows at our warship, directly order the repulsion troops to support the repulsion force. Block as much as you can; if the other side doesn't take action, you should stay on the fleet and keep an eye on them until they retreat."
Zhou Yu still looks calm, and his clear and precise instructions make the restless. The generals calmed down and listened attentively to Zhou Yu's orders. Maybe they would have a mission next.
"No." Jiang Qin didn't say much. He saluted Zhou Yu and walked out of the tent directly. Now he needed to mobilize the repulsion army to the fleet as quickly as possible. Now under the chain of iron cables, it was difficult to avoid the warships on the river. The incoming arrows.
"You all go and get ready for battle. Remember to bring your bow and a sufficient number of arrows when you go back. Next, we may have to compete with the opponent to see whose archery skills are better." Seeing Jiang Qin After walking out of the tent, Zhou Yu turned around and said to Li Tong, Li Yan and others, asking them to prepare for battle.
Although it is unlikely that the two sides will launch a large-scale battle when the Qingzhou Navy does not appear. After all, under the obstruction of the Yangtze River, it is difficult for Liu Bei's army on the opposite side to forcibly cross under the obstruction of the Jiangxia Navy. River.
This time, the reason why the people on the other side took action against the fleet that blocked the river was most likely to test the combat effectiveness of their Jiangxia navy, but Zhou Yu felt that they were more likely to do so. They wanted to test whether the archers on the shore could stop the fleet blocking the river and create an opportunity for the crossing troops to forcibly cross the river.
“Promise!” The generals from Jiangdong in the big tent shouted excitedly. They did not think that their archery skills would be lost to the northern generals and soldiers on the opposite side. They wanted to prove to the world that their archery skills from Jiangdong were is the strongest.
After arranging tasks for the generals in the tent, Zhou Yu also walked out of the tent. He wanted to see for himself what was going on on the other side. According to common sense, they who had just withstood the night attack should rest for a day and a half before following up. They are going to war, not to mention that the army on the other side only arrived yesterday. Don't they need to rest?
Even if the generals and commanders with strong inner energy do not need to rest, the soldiers under their command must rest. Those soldiers do not have the same strong inner energy as middle and high-level officers, which can quickly relieve physical and mental fatigue.
"General, all members of the Baijie Army have arrived. Please give the general an order." After gathering the troops on the shore, Chen Dao walked to Yang Ji and said.
"Sure enough, they are worthy of being white soldiers of the imperial guard level. This level of organizational strength is just like cheating." Looking at the neat queue of white soldiers, Yang Ji was quite satisfied. , the resources he invested in Chen Dao were not in vain.
Listening to Yang Ji's praise, Chen Dao stood there without the slightest sense of excitement. He knew very well that the reason why he was able to bring the Baiji soldiers to the level of the Imperial Guard so quickly was that Yang Ji was indispensable. of betting.
Although Chen Dao is confident that he will bring Bai Jie Bing to the current Imperial Guard in the future, or even to a higher level, Chen Dao also knows one thing very well. If Yang Ji hadn't helped him and Bai Jie Bing, they would not have been able to survive for a few years. As time went by, there was no way that Bai Jibing could become a Imperial Guard.
Although it is possible to rely on the overflow of talent strength to feed back physical fitness, so that the Baijie soldiers can quickly gain a foothold at the level of the Imperial Guard, but Chen Dao is very aware of the side effects of this, which is not what Chen Dao wants.
“Next, I will give the Baijie soldiers a solidified Xuanxiang embedded with the power storage and explosion talents, and what you have to do is to empty the arrows you brought at the fleet on the river.
You don’t need to worry about the counterattack of the Jiangdong archers on the other side, there will be other legions to help you stop the arrows on the other side, you just need to empty the arrows in the arrow pot," Yang Ji said to Chen Dao.
"No." Chen Dao saluted Yang Ji, then turned around and conveyed Yang Ji's order to the Baijie soldiers. Since Yang Ji asked the Baijie soldiers to just empty the arrows in the arrow pots and ignore the arrow rain attack from the opposite side, then Of course Chen Dao chose to believe Yang Ji, after all, that was Yang Ji.
