Chapter 772 Zhou Gongjin
Blue sea and sky, calm wind and waves, on a remote and beautiful island, Zhou Yu sat cross-legged on a large rock on the edge of the cliff, his eyes slightly closed, with a Jiaowei Qin on his lap, gently stroking the strings.
The sweet sound of the piano echoes the sound of the crashing waves, unexpectedly showing a different kind of harmony.
Suddenly, a big wave came over and hit the cliff. The water splashed and scattered all over the ground, but nothing was wet within a few feet around Zhou Yu.
After a long time, the sound of the piano slowly ended, but Zhou Yu had no intention of getting up. He looked at the battle that had ended in the distance and pursed his lips slightly.
The two fleets that had already decided the winner were heading towards the island. A young general stepped onto the island before everyone else and walked to Zhou Yu's side.
"General, you win again this time." Lu Meng said with half admiration and half dejection.
"How's the damage?"
"The army led by the general was only damaged by 20%. The last general's subordinates were damaged by more than half." Lu Meng said with a hint of shame.
"Ziming, your growth rate is really amazing!" Zhou Yu sighed. In the beginning, he could win with less than 10% of the battle losses, but now he has to pay more than twice the casualties. Only then
How long did it take? Lu Meng's learning ability is indeed too strong.
"How can I be compared to the general if I have little talent and knowledge? I have conducted dozens of exercises with the general and have never won. Not to mention, I can't even cause enough damage to the general. I am really ashamed of myself." Lu Meng lowered his head slightly.
He didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Yu.
Although the Zhou Yu in front of him was only a few years older than him, the gap between them was like a chasm, and they were not on the same level at all.
During each exercise, the strength of the warships on both sides was almost the same. The only difference was the difference in command between him and Zhou Yu. The two sides arranged their troops dozens of times, and each time he returned with a huge defeat. If
Not every time he could notice his progress, Lu Meng might really have doubts about whether he was suitable to lead an army in battle. A fair fight, knowing the basics and facing off against Zhou Yu was enough to make anyone doubt his life.
"Commanding operations is like playing chess, arranging troops and waiting for the enemy's opportunities. It's also like playing music, advancing and retreating in a well-founded manner, and echoing each other. Your foundation is very solid. It seems that you are really making strategic plans.
You have worked hard to learn it. But your troop formation is a bit too rigid and not flexible enough. No matter what kind of formation, it has its weaknesses and shortcomings. Once caught, it must be quickly changed. It is not obvious in land battles.
It is important, but in a naval battle, it is much more convenient to change formations than in a land battle. This will test a general's ability to respond to changes." Zhou Yu said calmly.
He was a naturally handsome man. After being transferred here by Yuan Shu to train the navy, he suddenly discovered that the navy, which had higher requirements for troop formations, had a broader horizon for him.
After all, when fighting on land, the forces of both sides were in disarray and moved slowly. It was difficult for even Zhou Yu to change the formation temporarily. Most of them had to put more effort into the initial formation. And the water force in the unit of warships
The battle is much more flexible than the land battle, and Zhou Yu's advantage in commanding the military formation can be fully utilized. If it is said that on land, Zhou Yu still needs to lose a lot of troops to defeat Lu Meng, but on the water Zhou Yu can defeat Lu Meng.
.
"What the general said is true, but it's a pity that the general is dull and not as smart as the general." Lu Meng sighed.
He understands the truth, but unfortunately he just can't do it. Not only him, but probably few people in the world except Zhou Yu can barely do it. Every time he fights with Zhou Yu, Lu Meng feels a sense of suffocation, no matter how he arranges the formation and changes.
As if he had no idea, the other side deployed targeted formations, which suppressed him until he lost his temper. Both sides had equal strength, but when they fought, it was as if they were surrounded and under siege.
And during this period of time, not only is he growing, Zhou Yu is also making continuous progress. After this period of growth, Zhou Yu has become even more abnormal. He can defeat him by commanding the army with the sound of the piano. If it is true,
With all his strength, Lu Meng is afraid that his record will be brought back to its original record.
"Report!"
A long shout sounded from far to near, and the messenger quickly came forward, knelt on the ground and clasped his fists, saying: "General, Your Majesty has a new order."
"Oh?" Zhou Yu's eyelids twitched slightly.
"General, Your Majesty has sent an order. It seems that we can also participate in this final battle." Lu Meng's eyes were filled with excitement and he said excitedly.
"It's not that simple." Zhou Yu was not in a hurry to take over the order, and said slowly: "Most of the generals under His Majesty's command have gathered for this final battle. The lineup is already extremely luxurious. There is no need for us to add icing on the cake. Not to mention the future of Da Chu.
The attack on Kushan depends on the navy we have trained. His Majesty will not transfer us because of this, there must be other reasons."
After saying that, Zhou Yu took the order and slowly unfolded it. After scanning his eyes, a playful expression appeared on his face, and he spoke out a name meaningfully: "Zhuge Kongming!"
…
"Your Majesty, if you bring the two of them together, you won't be afraid of them fighting?" Guo Jia asked with a smile.
"Don't worry, Gong Jin and Kong Ming are both open-minded and calm people. They can't fight. If it were Pang Tong and Lu Xun, it would be possible. Birds of a feather flock together, and they are all young talents. I think they
There will definitely be a lot of sparks between them." Yuan Shu said with a smile.
As Zhou Yu's adoptive father, Yuan Shu knew very well that Zhou Yu was not the narrow-minded person described in the novel at all. On the contrary, he could be said to be as broad-minded as the sea. The same is true for Zhuge Liang. Both of them were young and successful.
Unparalleled in intelligence, Yuan Shu felt that they would definitely become friends.
"Kong Ming and Gong Jin are both outstanding heroes in the world. I am afraid that in the future, the heavy burden of Chu will fall on them." Yuan Shu sighed.
Those who do not plan for the future will not plan for the future. Yuan Shu is not a short-sighted person. Having learned from the destruction of Wei, Shu and Wu, Yuan Shu naturally knows the importance of cultivating talents for future generations.
Don't you see, at the peak of the Shu Han Dynasty, the five tigers gathered together, Zhuge Fuzheng was upright, good generals were like clouds, and counselors were like rain. The same was true for Wei and Wu, with five good generals, five great counselors, twelve tiger ministers, and four great governors. And here they are.
What about the second generation? Except for the Wei Kingdom, the Shu Kingdom has no general Liao Hua as the vanguard, and the Wu Kingdom also has a talent gap. After that, the three kingdoms will all be gone, with only a few people left to play the leading role, and the rest are all
He is a mediocre person. In the end, he was picked by the Sima family.
With these lessons learned, Yuan Shu naturally attaches great importance to the next generation. Nowadays, the next generation of Da Chu is full of talents, but in Yuan Shu's heart, the most important people are only a few people, and Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu are the best among them. Yuan Shu regards Zhuge Liang's
He was positioned as the prime minister and assistant of the country, while Zhou Yu was the commander-in-chief of the country.
