Chapter 182 Xiangyang·Navy Army Theory
"Fengzi, why are you here?"
Xiang Yan shouted loudly in the mountains, because this place was already outside the territory of Andi, and was in the north of Andi, between a peak near the Han River.
The white fox leaped, but Feng Yun didn't answer. It didn't stop until it landed on the top of the mountain.
"Fengzi, you, the seal has been released!"
Xiang Yan is only a second-level acquired talent, but there is no guarantee that he will retain the innate Feng Yun.
In other words, there are probably not many people in the Chu country who can keep Feng Yun without the seal.
"Look." Feng Yun pointed to the distance. The Han River was surging down, but compared to the rest of the Han River, this place was the narrowest and gentlest.
"Huh?" Xiang Yan didn't move. He was more worried about Feng Yun leaving at this time.
Feng Yun smiled at this.
"I learned from the history of Chu that the Chu State was originally located east of Danding and on the side of Danshui, so it became the land of Danyang."
"And this Danshui is a main branch of the Han River in the north. Relying on this Danshui, I don't know how many countries have been nourished, and it has also become a battleground for many countries."
Just like Yong... After Chu moved its capital from Danyang to the capital of Ying in the south, he cut off the water and attacked, destroyed the Chu people who stayed in Danyang, and took Danyang by force.
For the people of Chu, this period of history is vague, because after the capital was moved, few people came into contact with the people of Danyang. For the powerful people of Chu, this period of history was humiliating, because after the capital was moved, they were separated from other countries, and even if they sent troops, there would be no
Retake Danyang.
But for the king of Chu, he kept it in mind, because Yong was the uncle of the country. After Yong captured Danyang, Chu sent troops, but the king of Zhou sent troops on the grounds that he was not allowed to conspire, Chu was a viscount, and he could not control the whole land of Jingchu.
Zheng Chu...
Of course, this time King Zhou failed to conquer Chu. He failed three times in total...
However, after that, the Chu State no longer talked about the land of Danyang. With the position of Viscount, he controlled the land of Jingchu and returned it to the Great Zhou...
The enmity between the Yong State and the Chu State was thus concluded.
But the Chu State did not dare to act rashly and disturb the Yong State.
After all, when the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty, the eight southwest kingdoms formed the Eight Kingdoms of Mu and Oath to help the King of Zhou, with the Yong Kingdom as the leader, which shows that the Yong Kingdom was powerful.
Even now facing the Yong State, the Chu State cannot be said to be confident.
Qi Yong, a big country in the southwest, is also a count!
There was silence for a long time, thinking that Xiang Yan also knew about this humiliating history.
"call……"
The wind is freezing cold.
"Fengzi, come down the mountain, the wind is strong." Xiang Yan was really worried that Feng Yun would leave, and he would be the one to blame.
Feng Yun smiled lightly, pointed at the Han River and said, "Can you row a boat?"
Xiang Yan was stunned and then said: "The Xiang family of Yan was originally a country in the East. After being destroyed, Chu survived. I grew up in the land of Jingchu since childhood. Jingchu has two major rivers, the Jiang River and the Han River.
There are many lakes and swamps, and I have been good at water since I was a child."
Feng Yun nodded: "It's true that Bashan and Chushui are like this. Each one has its own strengths."
"Xiang Yan, you people from Chu State are good at water, then you say that people from Yangyue are good at mountains, and are they good at fighting in mountains?"
Xiang Yan thought for a moment.
"I have never fought against the Yangyue people, but I heard that the Yangyue people live in the mountains and eat in the mountains. They are familiar with the mountains, and I am afraid they are very good at mountain fighting."
Feng Yun nodded.
"The people of the mountains know the mountains well and are good at mountain warfare. They can be called mountain armies. Their horses and chariots are not allowed to go up the mountain. Only the mountain armies can move fast. This is the advantage of the Cantonese people, and it was also the strategy that Chu State wanted to implement at the beginning.
, the reason for using all our strength to sneak attack the capital of Yangyue and cut off its retreat."
"Actually, if the King of Yangyue does not leave Yangyue, he can hide in the mountains and make Chu unable to defend himself."
"But King Yangyue is just a king. Behind him is the clan. What the clan wants is a stable inheritance, so when there is a way out, they all retreat."
"Looking at Chu State again, it lives on water and is good at water. Then, can it have a naval army?"
The naval army was in the Western Zhou Dynasty. There were many countries and wars were not obvious. Only the barbarians everywhere were in friction with the border countries. Like the Chu State, they were determined to destroy the barbarian countries and go to take those lands that were considered barren and barren by the Zhou people.
, very few.
All countries, including barbarians, tend to seek the Central Plains and other places of Emperor Zhou. Who would do the opposite?
But opportunities often lie in places that ordinary people can't see.
Feng Yun came from a later generation, and of course he knew the prosperity of the land south of the Yangtze River. However, floods are serious in the south of the Yangtze River, and the weather is different from that in the north. According to the weekly calendar, there are many problems.
But as long as we can revise the appropriate calendar and control floods, we can grow rapidly.
Therefore, Feng Yun formulated the calendar at the beginning, allowing Baiyue to farm, and formulated a strategy to go south instead of going north to join the battles of hundreds of countries.
Nowadays, the Chu State may have no choice but to invade the south. It won't take long for them to realize that the south is also a treasure.
"Navy army?" Xiang Yan was surprised.
"Fengzi also knows the art of war?"
"Why are the navy and how to fight?"
At this time, the ships between the countries were just for carrying things, not warships.
Just like when the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty, Taigong used ships to transport soldiers in the Yellow River, but there was nothing more.
The same was true for the subsequent Zhou Dynasty, for example... King Ji Xia of Zhou Zhao.
He was also the emperor who conquered Chu.
To conquer Chu, he needed to use ships to cross the river. But when crossing the Han River, the ships destroyed themselves, the Sixth Division was defeated, and the emperor drowned!
It can be seen that the craftsmanship of their ships is weak and they are not good at water, so they cannot be called naval forces.
And at this time...the tide is about to rise.
There is Chu in the south, and there are many countries in Yue, and there is also Wu in the Huaihe River, and the borders of many countries are also separated by water... At that time, the role of the navy will also come into play.
"The water army uses water as cover and water as a vehicle; the speed of the ship depends on the convenience of the ship."
"With a bow in hand, you can march and attack from a distance to intimidate cruisers."
"Hold a spear, rely on the shore and attack at close range, and win by surprise."
"Relying on the water of the world will benefit the country's military."
Feng Yun said, Xiang Yan was stunned and speechless.
"Look, is it faster to sail on water, or to travel on land?"
quick…
The speed of the march alone is of great benefit to all countries.
"Look at the Han River and the rivers that run through Jingchu. They are only used to irrigate the fields. It is too wasteful."
If he had not understood the Chu State at this time, Feng Yun would not have known that in this era, there was no navy division yet.
Most of the ships are small boats, which cannot meet military needs.
"Fengzi... this, what you said, I will inform the clan and ask the clan leader to inform Mr. Chu."
The Xiang clan has many brave generals and few political and military leaders, but if there is a chance of advancement, there is no harm in taking risks.
Saying that, Xiang Yan bowed to Feng Yun.
"Xiang Yan replaced the Xiang family and thanked Fengzi for his teachings. I will remember them for thousands of years and dare not forget them."
Just hearing this, Xiang Yan, a person who loves military warfare, knew how powerful this naval force was and how important it was to the Chu State located in the Chu River.
If the Xiang family talks about this matter, the reward they can get is no less than the grace of rebuilding from destruction to a small clan in Chu.
Feng Yun was not trying to convince anyone, nor was he trying to win Xiang's heart, but he was just expressing his feelings about the world.
Seeing that Xiang Yan was determined to seek merit, Feng Yun warned: "The powerful people in Chu State also have classes, so don't get hurt by greed for merit."
Naval forces will appear even if there is no wind. This is the general trend.
And this achievement of establishing the naval army will probably not have anything to do with the Xiang family.
Before Xiang Yan could wake up from her shock, Feng Yun said to herself: "So, let's go back to our original question - why are you here?"
Feng Yun looked towards the Han River, as if reminiscing.
This swirling wave takes him to the future.
a long time……
"This place is Xiangyang."
