Although it was spring, the sea was quite rough. The building ship "Wuji" sailed out from Penglai Water Village and sailed straight east. It didn't take long before it encountered strong wind and waves. .feichangwenxue.**/Novel Íø!Win the phone bill In this life, Zhen Yao also went to sea for the first time. Looking at the Yellow Sea in the late Han Dynasty, he couldn't help but have a fantasy of conquering the ocean.
"Daddy, I'm dizzy." Next to Zhen Yao, little Zhen Ang was lying weakly on the deck. He felt unwell after returning from the boat yesterday. Now that he was going to sea with the ship, he was even more exhausted.
Zhen Yao smiled and shook his head: "You'll get used to it after a while." It was also his first time to go to sea. The strange thing was that he had no adverse symptoms at all. Zhen Yao could only attribute this to his previous experience of going to sea. .
"Pop!" A wave rolled over the hull. At this moment, the characteristics of the 'Wanji' can be seen. The center of gravity of the ship is not higher due to the construction of double buildings. Even if the wind and waves blow, it is difficult for the building ship to float greatly. .
Zhen Yao¡¯s trip was just to test the feasibility of going to sea with warships. He had no intention of traveling by boat. Moreover, the endless ocean on the sea was spectacular at first sight, but it became boring after a long time.
After driving at full speed for half a day without any accidents, Zhen Yao ordered the return trip. By this time, Zhen Ang was able to walk while holding on to the edge of the boat, but his face was still not good and he had vomited several times.
Zhen Ang vomited, and Zhao Yun was not much better. This victorious general on horseback also felt a little uncomfortable when encountering the waves, but with his own physical constitution, he survived and did not make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
"Compared with Zhao Yun, Xu Sheng was full of energy. He commanded the warships from time to time, but felt that it was not enough. He also led Zhen Yao to watch a sea drill with his soldiers, wasting countless flying arrows and short spears.
When the "Wuji" returned to shore, the sun had already set in the west, and under the hazy moonlight, it reflected Zhen Yao's laughing and appreciative appearance. The "Wanji" went to sea very smoothly. Zhen Yao thought that as long as he did not encounter a rare tsunami, his own warship could attack wherever he wanted. It would not be a problem to directly go to Jiangdong from Qingzhou by sea.
He was in a good mood and slept well. When the sky got brighter the next day, Zhen Yao got up from the tent. At this time, Zhen Ang and Zhao Yun were still feeling uncomfortable and would not be able to wake up for a while.
On the other side of the dock, there were nearly ten warships, some large and some small. Chen Cheng pointed at the warships and said, "Lord, these warships are new ships built in recent months, and they haven't even had a chance to be launched into the water yet."
Nodding slowly, Zhen Yao looked carefully along the shore deck. Needless to say, stern ships and fighting ships were an indispensable part of the navy. [Very literary]. In addition to these small warships, there are two other ships, which are very special.
The hull of the ship is wide and flat, and there is a low platform built on the deck. On the low platform, there is a row of giant crossbows, some with single shots and some with multiple shots.
Zhen Yao frowned slightly and asked, "What can you say about this ship?"
"Reporting to my lord, water battles are much less destructive than land battles. And many equipment cannot be loaded and used." Xu Sheng explained at this time: "Sheng had this idea and sent a warship to Specially used weapons for attacking, like this giant crossbow, it only takes one flying shot to make ordinary buildings and ships sink to the bottom of the water."
"Destructive power?" Zhen Yao nodded briefly. The many limitations of water warfare made it impossible to use many of the cutting-edge instruments in his hands. If he could pull them out individually to form a fleet of weapons, it would be a strange move.
Thinking like this, Zhen Yao wanted to see the power of the giant crossbow ship. Xu Sheng was also very enthusiastic about this. He quickly asked his soldiers to drive out the warship and prepare the giant crossbow to launch.
"Swish, swish, swish." The arrows used in the giant crossbow are three points longer than ordinary short spears. They are heavy and fast. Dozens of powerful crossbow arrows flew past, and in the blink of an eye, they were placed on the ground a hundred steps away. A row of wooden walls shot through.
"Okay." It was powerful, which meant that this kind of ordnance ship would definitely be effective on the battlefield. Zhen Yao couldn't help but smile while stroking his hands.
Xu Sheng agreed humbly. Although he was a little complacent in his heart, he was so steady that he still knew how to control his emotions.
Zhen Yao stayed in Penglai Water Village for half a month. During this period, he went out to sea with the warship. It was not until he understood the entire water village that he remembered that he could not stay here for a long time, so he could only feel a little regret. , left Qingzhou and turned around to Wuji.
As soon as Zhen Yao returned to Wuji, Xu You said: "My lord, there was news from Jingzhou a few days ago that the Sun and Liu families were fighting again in Jiangling. In your opinion, this is a good opportunity to watch the fire from the other side, so you might as well let the two of them Fight longer.¡±
"What do you mean by Zi Yuan's words?" Zhen Yao raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.
Xu You then said: "My lord, Liu Pan currently has only fifty thousand soldiers, but Jiangdong's soldiers have no less than one hundred thousand. Jiangling alone can weaken these twoThe fighting power in human hands can also allow the soldiers under the lord's control to take a break, and Sun and Liu cannot be easily distinguished here. "
"What do you think?" Looking around at the civil and military officials, Zhen Yao was not in a hurry to make a conclusion.
When Zhen Yao asked, the first person who stood up was Chen Deng. Ever since Zhen Yao took the Cao family¡¯s wisdom and generals into his account, Chen Deng¡¯s position has become even more embarrassing, so as long as he seizes the opportunity, he will definitely join Zhen Deng. Yao showed his face in front of him and said: "My lord, I think what Ziyuan said is indeed true. If my lord supports Liu Pan with money, food and weapons, he can last longer than Liu Pan."
"Yuan Long's words are wrong. There is no such thing as a free gift in this world. Liu Pan cannot lose, but the lord cannot lose either." Guo Jia walked out shaking his head at this time and said with a smile: "Lower the price, and then Allow him a certain number of years, so that the lord can make a profit."
Guo Jia's words stunned the Xun family uncles and nephews who were familiar with him. Guo Fengxiao, who once regarded money as dirt, has become so stinky. However, these two surrendered ministers were just surprised in their hearts and had no intention of speaking.
Guo Jia's idea is what Zhen Yao likes the most. Although he is from a noble family, he is influenced by the memory of his past life. Naturally, he is not happy with this kind of loss-making business. If there is a war, he must make a fortune. How can he not just go out alone? Come in.
Just as he was about to speak, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, and then the guards outside the hall bowed and said: "My lord, a messenger from Yizhou is here."
"Yizhou? Let him come in." Zhen Yao frowned slightly, paused and said.
"My lord, urgent report from Yizhou." The messenger was dressed in dust. He didn't look at anyone after he walked in. He walked straight to Zhen Yao, took out a letter from his pocket and said.
There was an urgent message from Yizhou. Zhen Yao didn't know why but he was very cautious. After all, he had left Zhang Zha to lead the troops in Yizhou. He also had a group of wise men in Shu and many Liu family veterans, who could send them to Wuji. I came to report urgently, obviously something difficult has happened.
"Yongchang Prefect Yong Kai defected to Wu, the Southern Barbarians rebelled, and the five counties of Yinan fell." The hundreds of words in the urgent letter can be summarized in this sentence. Before Zhen Yao finished reading, his face became frighteningly gloomy.
"Bastard!" Holding the letter tightly in his right hand, Zhen Yao slammed the desk. This scolding was not only a scolding of the rebellious Yong Kai, but also an angry rebuke to the many civil and military officials in Yizhou, including his own negligence in this matter.
Zhen Yao sat on it and got angry, but the civil and military officials behind him didn't know why. In the end, Guo Jia was brave and asked: "Lord, what happened in Yizhou?"
"You see for yourselves." Zhen Yao was still angry and threw away the letter in his hand, but closed his eyes and said nothing.
After a while, this urgent letter from Yizhou was read by many civil and military officials. Almost everyone was shocked by this incident and broke into a cold sweat.
However, among these people, there were also a few who only showed a slightly surprised expression and then returned to a calm expression. It was like the old guys Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others, who also had their thoughts deep in their hearts.
"Lord, the Yongchang Rebellion is just a skin disease and nothing to be afraid of. It's just the southern barbarians of Yizhou who need to be comforted." The speaker was Fazheng. Of all the people present, he was the only one who lived in Yizhou. The understanding is also very profound.
The Southern Barbarians are no better than the Xianbei, Wuhuan and other tribes in the north. The Xianbei and other tribes have been in the grassland for a long time and have almost no connection with the Han Dynasty. Many of the Nanman people have integrated into Yizhou and mixed with the local Han people.
So it is destined that it is impossible to treat the Nanman people as we did the Xianbei, killing them all, because it is impossible to kill them all, and it is not easy to kill them. Fazheng's life in Yizhou was not short, and he had learned about it specifically.
Soon, Meng Da also came out and said: "My lord, you are very filial and upright. To recover the southern barbarians, the main thing is to care for them." This guy is handsome and talented, but it is a pity that he has too many flaws in his character and has never been put to much use.
Chen Deng shook his head when he heard the words: "Although this statement is not bad, it also has flaws. How can the people in the southern barbarians accept the order obediently? If you don't beat him until it hurts, he will still rebel. Based on Deng's opinion, Chang'an troops and horses should be mobilized , fight against the rebellion together with the Yizhou soldiers, first capture and kill the leader of the thieves before talking about anything else."
The people below started arguing with each other, which made Zhen Yao feel very annoyed. He immediately waved his hands and shouted: "That's enough. This is a meeting hall, not a market. Wen He, tell me about Yizhou." How to decide the matter!"
When Jia Xu heard this, his squinted eyes slowly opened, and he bowed and said: "Reporting to my lord, Xu thinks that it is enough to transfer Zhang Ren to Shu and work with Zhang Zha to put down the rebellion. As for the matter of appeasement, I can leave it to Huang Quan. .¡±
"Okay, I will act on Wen He's words and order Zhang Ren to lead 20,000 Chang'an soldiers to the south." It's not like Zhen Yao has never thought about asking Zhang Fei to support Zhang Jia, but when he thinks about Zhang Fei's temper, he really wants to let him go south. If he has a murderous nature, he will probably end up with something bad. In comparison, Zhang Xing is still steady and familiar with the topography of Sichuan.?? is more appropriate.
The edict was quickly issued under Chen Lin's pen. After a little drying, Zhen Yao sealed it in an envelope and asked his messengers to take it to Chang'an quickly. The war in Yizhou is urgent and cannot be delayed even a moment.
"Shi Yuan, if this plan succeeds, my lord will be able to sit on half of the Han Dynasty, but you will have achieved great success." Under Jiangling City, in the Jiangdong camp from afar, Zhou Yu said with a chuckle.
Pang Tong's ugly face that had not changed for thousands of years showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Gong Jin's words make Tong afraid to accept it. Tong can only implement a small plan, and he cannot be a great hero."
He said this, but Pang Tong's proud character made him look proud. He was the one who came up with the plan to connect the West to Yinan, and he was also responsible for instigating the rebellion against Yongchang Yongchang and stimulating the rebellion of the Southern Barbarians.
If Yizhou really takes over and Jiangling is captured now, considering that Sun Quan owns a large area of ????Jing, Yang, Jiao, and Yi, he can indeed be said to be on a par with Zhen Yao.
