Chapter 661 This wave is sure to be a great victory!
"General, we didn't mean to disturb you, but just now, just now..."
"Just now? What just now?"
Chai Shao frowned, "What on earth are you talking about and what happened just now?"
The soldiers immediately turned their heads and focused their eyes on the crowd.
Chai Shao followed his gaze and looked over, frowning immediately at this glance.
This person...
Why does it look familiar? Isn't this the "third child" from before?
That being said, it really is...
"General, due to military discipline in the middle of the night, I don't dare to scream, but just now I clearly saw that there was... something on the sea!"
Chai Shao's eyes changed, but his expression remained calm, as if he was impatient when someone disturbed his dream.
"What did you see? There is not even a ghost in this vast ocean. Did you see the green flowers in the village, or did you see the little red in the city?"
Chai Shao yelled and scolded, and the soldier was startled. When the other soldiers saw the general's bad expression, they were very nervous. The reason why the Tang army has high combat effectiveness is because of its good logistics and stable troop sources, strict training and strict enforcement of orders and prohibitions.
.
But training eyesight and commanding and prohibiting are undoubtedly more terrifying for the big-headed soldiers...
Several people suddenly became nervous.
But this is exactly the effect of Chai Shaoyao. The difference between a good soldier and a rogue soldier sometimes depends on whether the general knows how to shout.
After being yelled at by him like this, the "Lao San" and others just started talking like they were pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
Just a few minutes ago, "Lao San" and others were also patrolling, but they discovered something unusual on the sea.
The third child saw a tall and scary sailboat!
It is so tall that it can even be said to be no different from the big ships here. The top of the mast is touching the clouds in the sky. You think it is scary or not.
It is absolutely impossible for such a big boat to appear. It is absolutely impossible for fishermen to use such a thing to fish? That is absolutely impossible.
Of course, Chai Shao and Changsun Wuji saw such a scene more than once during these days, while others...
Because the other party was cautious, he didn't see it.
Even if I see it occasionally, I just see some small black dots that have lost their shape due to distance and caution, and this doesn't mean anything -
Everyone now knows that there is something called a "whale" in the sea. This thing is a fish that swallows boats. It is not surprising that it appears and appears from time to time. Only people with special talents and good eyesight like "Lao San" can spot it.
But the difference this time is that in addition to the third child, all his colleagues also saw it.
Not only are there black spots, but there are also firelights swaying on these black spots!
This almost confirms that those black spots are ships, and also confirms that what Lao San saw during this period may be real...
Things suddenly became weird.
But after Chai Shao listened...
At this time, the general's IQ and emotional intelligence are shown.
Chai Shao laughed.
"That's it?"
"Is this what I want to do directly?"
"Aren't they just a few pirates who scared you little ladies like this? How dare you think about Xiao Hong in the village like this?"
"Listen to my order! Immediately notify the third and fifth battalions, and everyone must gather immediately and board the ship!"
Chai Shao shouted loudly and spoke with heroic words,
This immediately calmed the scene.
Seeing how majestic the captain was, the few sailors didn't panic at all. They even seemed to have expected it. The panic in their hearts suddenly subsided. Thinking that they might have to perform meritorious service and get bonuses during this trip, they even felt a little excited and expectant.
…
In the blink of an eye, the sailors ran quickly to inform their comrades in the designated sequence.
Chai Shao looked at the soldiers retreating and breathed out softly.
This time, the situation is definitely unusual.
The other party has always acted in an organized and disciplined manner, so it is impossible for him to make such an obvious mistake easily.
So many people have seen the boat shadow and the fire, so this investigation must be a special investigation...
And such reconnaissance usually only occurs in one situation on the battlefield.
The army is coming!
But as a few soldiers saw.
Of course, Chai Shao did not rely solely on his psychological quality to remain calm and collected, but he also did not rely entirely on his calculations and predictions. He was really calm.
And just like these soldiers...
Chai Shao has a good feeling that this wave will definitely win!
…
soon……
The lights swayed under the warships of the Imperial Navy of the Tang Dynasty.
Then Chai Shao ordered it to be extinguished immediately.
It’s not about playing with fiction and reality, okay, then I’ll play too.
Playing hide and seek in the middle of the night, let's...
"Look in this play, who is the master of suffering and who is the evil spirit... Humph!"
The lights were completely extinguished, but Chai Shao still figured out a way to do something.
Although the opponent is attacking, even if our own side takes advantage of the darkness to attack, the enemy is in darkness and we are in darkness, so there is no advantage at all.
All combat advantages must be based on reliable intelligence.
However, Chai Shao is not a vegetarian, and he has led troops for so many years.
"General, all the torches have been put out. I'm afraid the brothers can't see the flag..."
The adjutant commander next to him, Ma Zhou, said with some worry.
Ma Zhou was originally the young man that Chai Shao admired the most. Now that Chai Shao wanted to start a big job, of course he also brought Ma Zhou along.
Although Ma Zhou was a scholar, he had not seen war scenes. Chai Shao believed that it was entirely feasible to train him as a general.
An abnormal situation has occurred now, and it is not an ordinary abnormality. An attack on the camp may happen at any time. Ma Zhou is a little confused as to why Chai Shao did not invite Li Sheng out, but since his superiors said to send troops, he should follow suit.
There are not so many reasons to talk about in the military. Military strategies must first be implemented accurately, and then we can talk about whether they are correct or incorrect.
Ma Zhou's worries were not unreasonable. It was an unfamiliar naval battle and even an unfamiliar night battle. How the other party ensured that military orders were conveyed, or whether they had other arrangements, was unknown.
But no matter how you think about it, we cannot live without communication. The difference between warships with communication and without communication is a world of difference visible to the naked eye.
But now we have to extinguish the torch and keep the flag...
On Monday, it feels very difficult to make a decision.
But Chai Shao made a decision immediately.
"Don't worry, my dear nephew, King Bin. Send an order for the whole army to use mirrors to communicate!"
"Mirror?"
Ma Zhou couldn't help but be startled, how could he communicate with this thing?
"hey-hey……"
Chai Shao chuckled, showing a bit of cunning that was different from his status as a general.
"Of course the mirror cannot be used as a flag, but it is enough to convey military orders."
Then the few guards around Chai Shao seemed to have expected it. They raised their hands and shouted "hey" and left one after another, sending the order to go.
Chai Shao didn't know where this was coming from, and Ma Zhou was immediately confused. But he soon understood...
