Seeing the urgent report sent by the Intelligence Department from a secret post in Jingzhou, Wang Yu didn't know what to say for a moment, and felt like he couldn't laugh or cry.
The reason why he did not send Taishi Ci to take action was mainly because he wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible so as not to attract too many people's attention and cause unnecessary trouble.
In addition, I was worried that there would be too little time. Taishi Ci could not go out alone when he wanted to go, but at least he had to take the hundreds of marines he had trained with him. These elite soldiers were all well-trained people, and it was not easy to break them into pieces for stealth.
Difficult, but not always available in time.
Relatively speaking, Gan Ning, who was persuaded by Chun Yuqiong and came from Linjiang to serve, was undoubtedly a better choice.
This historical Soochow general was a fierce general with both courage and force. What Wang Yu remembers most clearly is Gan Ning's heroic deeds of riding a hundred horses in the camp and fighting in all directions at night. At that time, it should be Zhang Liao who showed his power in the battle of Xiaoyaojin
, when the morale of the Soochow army was low, Gan Ning's move to camp did not cause much substantial damage to Cao's army, but it greatly boosted the morale of the Wu army.
But Wang Yu, a fan of the Three Kingdoms, can only be said to be the kind of person who just watches the fun without asking for any in-depth explanations. His understanding of Gan Ning is just that, otherwise he would not have recorded Gan Ning's birthplace as Jiangzhou.
He never expected that Gan Ning would be a more high-profile master than Taishi Ci. Taishi Ci was just a pushy person, but Gan Ning trained everyone around him to become people with similar personalities to him.
The whole team of Jinfan Thieves is just a bunch of people going crazy!
If the fighting prowess of these guys wasn't as strong as their ability to cause trouble, Wang Yu really suspected that he had found the wrong person. Now, he could only feel pain and happiness.
To his relief, Gan Ning's abilities were even better than he expected. After seeing the military situation in Jingzhou, Wang Yu could conclude that this man was born for water battles and night battles!
Needless to say, water battles. From the first battle, Wang Yu's eyes lit up with the tacit understanding and unique tactics displayed by the Jinfan thieves in their attacks.
Tying a rope to a very high mast, like an ape flying over a mountain stream, swinging high and landing directly on the deck of an enemy ship for a boarding battle. This description may make many uninformed people feel confused and have no idea about the king.
For Yu, there is a strong sense of immediacy. Isn't this the tactic of those pirates in the Middle Ages?
In this era, China's navigation industry was far from being large-scale, and most of the experience in water warfare was gained on rivers and lakes. Most inland ships were wide-bottomed ships with shallow drafts, so they would not
The mast is made too high to avoid raising the center of gravity and causing it to roll over. This pirate tactic should have no room for survival.
But Gan Ning is obviously a weirdo, and Wang Yu can't figure out the conditions under which he understood this tactic, but there is no doubt that he will definitely shine after he uses this unexpected move.
of.
Thinking more deeply, Gan Ning liked to make the sails colorful. Although it was for the purpose of being in the limelight, it was also for the purpose of diverting attention. Those gorgeous sails made people not think too highly of his fleet.
He paid too much attention to the mast. Even if he saw it, he would just think that he did this weird thing in order to hang the colorful flags and sails higher and make them more conspicuous.
The tactics are very novel. The adeptness and tacit understanding shown by the Jinfan thieves in the series of tactical actions of joining the ship, seizing the ship, and steering are also shocking. You must know that all of this was carried out at night when the visibility was quite low.
of!
Wang Yu now understands why Gan Ning and his men like to hang bells on their bodies. In addition to the nature of their showman character, it must also be a kind of training, specially designed for night fighting.
In normal times, you are used to distinguishing the location of your companions from the ringing of bells. In wartime, you will naturally have the same tacit understanding as when fighting in the daytime. Similarly, this kind of listening training will definitely be helpful in determining the location and movement of the enemy in night battles. Jinfan Thief
This is how he got his 80% achievement in extraordinary night fighting qualities.
Wang Yu was not sure whether these training and arrangements were done intentionally by Gan Ning or by accident. It was enough for him to know that Gan Ning was stronger than he knew.
On the other hand, Wang Yu didn't take Gan Ning's miraculous archery skills so seriously. He had several generals with excellent archery skills. At least Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun were definitely not inferior to Gan Ning. Tai Shici's archery skills were equally extraordinary, and the others
Even if it's slightly weaker, it won't be too different.
As the scale of war expands, the role of individual bravery becomes less and less important. Being able to effectively embed personal bravery into overall tactics is the most valuable quality.
After Taishi Ci irresponsibly gave up his choice, Qingzhou was in need of a navy general. Gan Ning's appearance was almost as good as giving him a pillow for sleeping.
Of course, Wang Yu's worries also arose from this. Whether it was the escort mission or Gan Ning himself, everything was still unknown until they arrived in Guangling safely and joined the Xuzhou Yulin Army responsible for the response.
Once intercepted, the loss will not only be a matter of a few hostages, but the loss of a general will be the most fatal.
Judging from all the reports, the Jingzhou Navy must not be able to stop Gan Ning.
It's not that Jingzhou's navy is too weak, it's just that Jingzhou itself is in the midst of drastic changes. Both the navy and land forces are in a state of disorganization, and the Jinfan thieves have already demonstrated their power in the night battle at Yuliangzhou.
Under this situation, the interception by Jingzhou Navy naturally became ineffective.
Moreover, the leader of the Jingzhou Navy, Cai Mao, was involved in affairs in Xiangyang and did not dare to leave. His deputy, Zhang Yun, was shot to death by Gan Ning with an arrow. Although the Jingzhou Navy was numerous, it was leaderless, so how could it be said that there could be any effective interception?
Mian River, that is, Han River, after passing through Xiangyang, flows southeast as a whole, merges into Yunmengze east of Jingling, and finally merges with the Yangtze River in Hanyang area. As the war situation in Jiangxia deteriorated day by day, the navy was no longer able to patrol the river defenses and block the rivers.
Jiangdong's navy advanced westward, so the thirteen lines of defense were established. The main purpose was to prevent Jiangdong's light troops from raiding Jingling or Xiangyang.
Ordinarily, if there are so many checkpoints, if each one is strictly guarded, even if the Jinfan thieves are exhausted, most of the Jinfan thieves can be consumed. But the problem is, after the battle of Yuliangzhou and the several checkpoints in the north were broken through by Gan Ning, the following
The morale of the level dropped to the bottom, and everyone just ran away.
Due to the convenience of flying pigeons to send messages, the information Wang Yu got was all the latest, and the delay was only five or six days at most. Based on the intelligence speculation, Gan Ning's fleet has now entered the Yunmengze area, and the terrain in the swamp is
It was quite complicated, and even if Cai Mao integrated his army to pursue it, it would be too late.
The Jingzhou Army is no longer a concern, but the next difficulty becomes the stronger Jiangdong Army!
Wang Yu still has some understanding of Sun Ce's character. If Pang Degong and his party are just crossing the border, he may not have the intention to stop them. Kidnapping hostages is not in line with the style of this Jiangdong overlord. He had already used it in the last fight.
Once, Sun Ce will definitely not use it again this time.
The problem is that Gan Ning was too ostentatious along the way. The saying that the Jinfan passed through the border without any trace of integrity was not a boast by Gan Ning himself, but was used by the people of Jingzhou to describe his majesty.
Against the background of the mighty record of defeating the thirteen water checkpoints in one battle, or escaping in the face of the wind, this description is not an exaggeration. However, considering Sun Ce's unyielding and angry temper, Jiangdong Navy's large-scale deployment to intercept is not an exaggeration.
What an unimaginable thing.
Wang Yu could not help but worry about the serious situation, but the Qingzhou Army's sphere of influence in the Yangtze River Basin was only limited to Guangling and Jiangdu, and was completely beyond the reach of the Jiangxia area, and he could not think of any effective measures at the moment.
Because he was so worried, Wang Yu's mood seemed a little low at the wedding banquet.
"Lord, today is a big day, everyone is looking at you." Jia Xu came over to remind him, holding a wine cup.
"Maybe we are too familiar with each other, and we don't have any special feelings..."
Wang Yu didn't know how those couples who turned into close relationships from colleagues in later generations usually got along with each other. Anyway, he was not used to it. Especially Zhang Ning and Mi Zhen, who usually asked for instructions or discussed fortifications with him in a serious manner.
, Leng Ding changed his identity, but it felt a bit awkward no matter what.
Er Qiao and Zhen Mi are too unfamiliar, especially Zhen Mi and Wang Yu. They didn't meet each other for the first time until the class teacher returned to Gaotang. Of course, they felt amazing, but the problem is, they just met
After so many meetings, we didn’t even exchange a few words, and then we got married and went home. Isn’t this an awkward feeling?
Of course, the significance of marrying Er Qiao and Zhen Mi is very important. The Zhen family is a prominent family in Zhongshan Kingdom, and Er Qiao's family is even more famous. Marrying them will be very beneficial to stabilizing the local people, and it can also cast a shadow over oneself.
There is an aura of nostalgia for the old relationship - Qiao Mao and her father Wang Kuang had been talking to each other for a while. In this era, this can be regarded as a sign of speculation.
"Every time you go around, you'll get used to it."
Jia Xu raised the wine cup and took a sip, and said with a smile: "Seven beauties have passed through the door, and they are full of beauty. It would be too unsatisfactory for you, my lord, to keep a cold face. What's more, Jing Xiang is so willing to dominate and dominate,
The powerful Mianshui is a great supplement to the strength of our Qingzhou Army. My lord's keen eye for knowing people and his reputation for pulling heroes out of the wilderness has become even more famous. It can be said to be a double blessing."
"Until the person comes back, all this is still unknown." Wang Yu nodded, shook his head, and finally sighed.
"My lord, it is said that the past cannot be forgotten and the past cannot be pursued. Since the coordination operation has been arranged, Jun Yi is steady in his actions, Shi Yuan is resourceful, and Yu Zhongxiang is there to mediate. It is just a coordination. How can it be difficult to achieve success?"
After a few words of consolation, Jia Xu pointed to somewhere in the hall and said meaningfully: "My lord, there is no need to worry too much and just concentrate on what is in front of you!"
Wang Yu subconsciously looked around and saw Lu Bu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, striding into the hall. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
