"Reply to Lao Cao and Lao Guo and say that I will personally lead the navy to raid the lairs in Jingzhou and Jiangdong!"
"???"
"Kid, do you have a lot of questions..." Looking at the shocked expression of the shadow guard, Lu Yan couldn't help but think of a string of lyrics in his mind...
Lu Yan's plan was not a whim, he had actually been thinking about it for a long time.
Many navy soldiers are good at water. After more than a year of training, most of them have become accustomed to life on board.
When the time comes to enter the sea, some people will definitely not be able to adapt to it, but they can only slowly adapt to it at sea.
Lu Yan came back from his thoughts and saw the shadow guard staring at him in astonishment with his mouth open.
Lu Yan stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him, but he was completely unaware.
It seems that this news is still a bit too shocking... Lu Yan simply patted the shadow guard on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You go and send a message to Zilong and my wife for me first, and let them lead the Dragon Riding Battalion.
We will go to Xuchang with the remaining cavalry from the Wolf Cavalry Battalion to await Duke Cao’s orders."
The shadow guard was patted by Lu Yan and finally came to his senses. After hearing Lu Yan's instructions, he quickly clasped his fists and accepted the order: "I accept the order!"
However, the shadow guard refused to leave after accepting the order.
Seeing this, Lu Yan asked again: "Do you have any more questions?"
"Well...if you really lead the navy on an expedition, how should your subordinates answer when the Prime Minister or Guo Jijiu asks?"
"Let's do this. I'll write a letter later, and you can hand it over to Duke Cao for me. I'll explain everything about the navy to him clearly in the letter."
"Um... I understand!"
After the shadow guards left, Liu Bei walked out of the cement factory, came to Lu Yan, and asked, "Sir, are you going to fight again?"
Liu Bei's face was also covered in dust, and his tone was slightly lonely, making him seem a little out of spirit.
Lu Yan looked at Liu Bei's slightly lonely look and replied with a smile: "Yes! This time Jingzhou and Jiangdong are unexpectedly vigorous, and I have no choice but to do so!"
"Then... I wish you success, sir."
Lu Yan nodded and suddenly asked: "You actually want to go to the battlefield again, right?"
Liu Bei was slightly stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and said: "Although I miss the days when I was on the battlefield with my second and third brothers, I don't want to go back to the battlefield again. Because I understand that it is better to kill than to kill."
To defeat the enemy, managing people’s livelihood well is a more difficult and important thing!”
"You have finally understood something!" Lu Yan chuckled, but still said: "However, while ensuring people's livelihood, force is also indispensable."
After a moment of pause, Lu Yan thought for a while and continued: "Let me give you a message..."
"I would like to listen to your teachings, sir!" Liu Bei cupped his hands and made a gesture of listening attentively.
"Dignity is only on the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon!"
After finishing speaking, Lu Yan turned around and walked towards the cement factory. There is still some work to be finished there. Once it is completely completed, the road paving plan from Youzhou to Liaoxi County can be started!
Lu Yan walked away for a long time, but Liu Bei was still stunned on the spot, repeating the sentence: "Dignity is only on the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon..."
After about a while of drinking tea, Liu Bei finally slowly came to his senses, "Sir's words were like thunder, and I was enlightened!"
After Liu Bei sighed with emotion, he patted the loose flesh on his thighs, shook his head and murmured to himself: "My achievements have not yet been accomplished but my thighs have regenerated. I don't know how old I am...
I don’t know how my second and third brothers are doing now... It must feel great to ride on the grassland!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Liu Bei's mouth. After moving his slightly heavy body, he said to himself: "Let's get up early tomorrow and practice sword practice. Although I don't know if there will be a chance to return to the battlefield, my energy is still the same."
It shouldn’t be lost.”
...
Navy station.
The soldiers were whispering to each other and discussing a lot.
"Don't get excited!"
"Steady, steady!"
"When the specific military orders come down, just act according to the plan. Now, please calm down for me, don't beep!"
The speaker was a veteran of the Jinfan Army. He had been hanging out with Gan Ning since he was a teenager, and it must have been nearly ten years now. He is now also a formation commander, and can be regarded as a mid-level general in the navy.
After the formation of the navy, those in the Jinfan Army who had rich experience in water warfare turned into middle- and low-level officers... If they did well, they could already lead a battleship formation on their own.
Today, the navy was going through daily training... Suddenly, drums sounded loudly in the station, so the navy soldiers returned to the station one after another and rallied.
When there are more people, news spreads faster.
As soon as the soldiers gathered together, news came that Lu Qianqi was preparing to lead the navy to attack Jingzhou and Jiangdong!
The naval generals who finally got the chance to go on the expedition were all excited and excited, and then the somewhat chaotic scene at the beginning began.
The naval station is located on the high platform.
Lu Yan stood at the front, with Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi lined up on the left and right; behind him were Gan Ning, Su Fei and other naval generals, filling the small general platform to the brim.
Lu Yan glanced at the naval officers who were suppressing their excitement and said loudly:
"Everyone!
Although the Navy has only been established for a year, we are now about to start our journey.
Are you ready?"
“Always ready!!”
The loud voice shook the sky.
Lu Yan was very satisfied with their energy and answers, "Not bad! But I hope you can still be so tough when you get to the sea. Don't become a soft-footed shrimp and come to me again and complain, "Lu Qiuqi,
I can't do it anymore...'"
"Hahaha!"
"Men, you must never say no! Whether the Han Dynasty Naval Administration can be corrected depends on the performance of each of you!"
"Hoo ho ho!"
"Drink drink drink!!"
The soldiers responded to Lu Yan with their own shouts.
"With a strong enemy in the north and a vicious neighbor in the west, Jingzhou and Jiangdong sent 300,000 troops to attack us... What should we do to deal with these shameless villains?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Not only do we want to kill! We also want to ransack their homes! Only by making them pay a heavy enough price will they know how powerful we are!"
"Search the house! Search the house! Search the house!" The navy soldiers were so excited by Lu Yan's words that their eyes turned red. They wished they could take their weapons and rush into Jiangdong or Jingzhou to ransack it!
Morale is through the roof!
Lu Yan showed a satisfied expression, and then raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. As soon as he raised his hand, the entire station became audible.
Lu Yan immediately ordered: "Liu Xuande!"
Liu Bei strode forward, came to Lu Yan, bowed and clasped his fists, saying: "My subordinate is here!"
"After I leave, you will be in charge of all military affairs in Chenliu County. You must guard the rear for us!"
"But if something goes wrong, be prepared to come and see me!" Liu Bei replied in a sonorous tone.
"Zhuge Kongming!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"I will leave all the affairs of the supervisor to you. At the same time, you will also be responsible for the training of the field soldiers and new recruits."
"I obey my orders!"
"Sima Zhongda!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"I order you to work with Yi Ji and Han Hao to raise the food and grass needed for the army. After the logistics support is completed, you will serve as the army commander and accompany me and the 100,000 navy troops on the expedition!"
Sima Yi did not expect that Lu Yan would take him on an expedition. After a brief moment of surprise, he still showed a hint of excitement and accepted the order with his hands in hand: "I accept the order!"
