"Is there such a content in the military order?" Gan Ning asked curiously, deploying troops is not a joke. Without the order, unless you have Liu Bei's ability, no one will take advantage of you. After all, this kind of
Things are very sensitive in any era.
"Yes, the transfer order said at the beginning that three army corps can be supplemented. Zichuan may also want to try Old Taichang's plan." Zhou Yu said calmly.
Zhao Qi's plan is actually quite executable, and it is indeed an extremely effective containment plan. Needless to say, the mere purpose of containing the opponent's main force is enough for Zhou Yu to try it, not to mention Yang Qun.
The engineering corps was put on board the ship before they were fully trained, which meant they were testing the waters.
"Building a canal there?" Taishi Ci thought thoughtfully, and then he understood the reason why Chen Xi must get the engineering corps that he had finally deceived and abducted. This was because he really planned to use violence to build a canal.
"I have such an idea, but whether it can be cultivated or not is still a matter of debate. Try it first. If you can succeed in cultivating it, but if you can't, you can also use this method to divert Kushan's attention. After all, compared to Kushan's navy, ours
The army definitely has the advantage." Zhou Yu said with a cautious expression.
Zhou Yu also fought against the Kushan navy, so he can naturally understand the gap between the two navies. The Han army has always only focused on the army, while the navy has been an auxiliary force since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States, and was used more to manage shipping, and more
Not to mention something as rare as the navy.
To put it bluntly, the Han army's navy was just established and had no rules and regulations. It was incomparable to the Kushan navy, which had been established for nearly a hundred years and had been running from one side of the Indian Ocean to the other.
It is true that the Roman navy has been established for hundreds of years. The First Persian Empire, the predecessor of the Parthian Empire, and the Achaemenid Dynasty even had the naval combat capability of deploying nearly 100,000 troops at sea in BC. But please remember one thing, that
It's the Mediterranean Sea, not the Indian Ocean.
The difference is very big. The former is called a bathtub. You can use a sampan and a swimming ring to swim there. It is one of the calmest sea areas in the world. The difficulty level is actually only a little higher than that of the Han army's navy. Basically
If you can sail a boat on the Yangtze River, there is no danger in sailing on the Mediterranean.
Precisely because of the different degrees of difficulty, although the Romans' navy was not small, it was only used to transport supplies. What's more, it has been so many years since Rome contracted the Mediterranean.
The meaning of the navy has completely become transportation.
This is why, to this day, the Kushan people have the best navy in the world.
Although Zhou Yu's talent is not bad, it is really ridiculous to say that he was able to create a naval system in just a few times compared to the naval system that Kushan spent a lot of time tinkering with and perfecting, and it was not until the Cecilian era that it was completely finalized and carried forward.
After all, there are still three nails in the broken ship, not to mention that the Kushan ship has not been broken yet. Vesudeva will never die. Even if Kushan is in a period of decline, it is still an empire that can compete with the Han Dynasty. Ganges River Basin, India
The terrible output of the river basin is enough to support the disaster of this country.
Under such circumstances, it is very necessary to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses and survive the early stage. For Zhou Yu, the best way to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses is to use the army to fight against Guishang. As for humiliation, as long as the war can be won, lose some people.
I accepted it, after all, it is better than becoming a dead person.
Naturally, under this situation, Zhou Yu still had no pressure to mobilize infantry. The only struggle was that there were not many infantry available in the south, so he could only borrow some from Youzhou. After all, these infantry in the Central Plains were only
Several legions in Youzhou can run on water.
Others, including the top elites such as the cavalry, are seasick. As for the reorganization of dual-talented shield guards, Zhou Yu is interested in bringing them there. After all, this legion can run on the water. However, Li You gave a
Looking at his eyes, Zhou Yu thought it was better to forget it.
Speaking of which, when Li You went south, he took away two and a half top-level legions that were capable of fighting. They were all created by Huangfu Song, namely the shield guard, the shooting sound, and half a long water. For Li You, these additions
It is basically enough to supplement the rotation of high-end troops.
Well, there is no way. Guo Jia's second letter did not come. If it had come, Li You would probably understand that the high-end troops he had brought with him and the elites retained by Guan Yu and others were still insufficient for offense. Guishang
Apart from anything else, this country has an astonishingly solid foundation even if it has swallowed the poison of Brahman. Ninety years of expansionary conquests have left behind a lot of essence.
"Then let's mobilize our troops. This time we will fight a big one. All the main generals are here. In this case, let's go south first and mobilize all our main forces to have a big fight with Guishang. We will also bring my own troops with us.
"Sun Ce said very excitedly. After all, with Zhou Yu next to him, he was not afraid of trouble at all.
Zhou Yu glanced sideways at Sun Ce, and finally thought it would be better not to say anything, and let Sun Ce wave a few times, so that he could stabilize himself later, and it was better after all. The waves flew up when he shouldn't have.
"There are indeed some gaps between us and our opponents in terms of naval warfare techniques and tactics, but some gaps are better filled directly on the battlefield." After Zhou Yu glanced at Sun Ce, he silently withdrew his gaze and decided to go south and accompany Sun Ce on the waves first.
He is also a young man and occasionally likes to be wild.
"In terms of technology and tactics, judging from my previous studies, the core point of Kushan is actually the strengthening of the overall defense. The strengthening of the offensive is not terrible, so I asked Ji Cai to strengthen the lethality of the battleship.
"Although Gan Ning is often unreliable, he is not without brains. On the contrary, he is the kind of character who has great ideas and execution ability.
After suffering a loss from Kushan, although he rarely showed any resentment on his face, Gan Ning was always ready to fight back, so he had approached Lu Jun before to strengthen the long-range strike of the battleship.
After all, some cloud gas techniques and tactics are not suitable for the Han Dynasty, so storing cloud gas, etching the heaven and earth essence, and using heavy ballistae to introduce the heaven and earth essence for long-range strikes are the best choices.
By the way, Gan Ning came up with this idea himself.
As for how this development direction came about, it was actually mainly because after he experimented with naval guns, he was besieged by a group of people. Gan Ning was deeply aware of the ferocious power of naval guns, and felt that he could not defeat the Kushan Navy in close combat, so he
Pat your head and successfully figure out a development direction.
Speaking of the battle in Malacca when he led tens of thousands of pirates and the Kushan navy, although Gan Ning suffered heavy losses and half of his army was destroyed, Gan Ning used this to apply what he learned from Meng Khambu.
Naval techniques and tactics were fully absorbed.
Well, it would be a lie to say that it is fully absorbed. To be precise, so much naval technical and tactical knowledge cannot be mastered in a short time. Not to mention Gan Ning, even a naturally gifted person like Zhou Yu
It is impossible for a general to do it.
But it can be said that Gan Ning is far better than others in this aspect by taking the opposite approach, absorbing what he needs and discarding the parts that are of little value.
Compared to Zhou Yu who had managed to construct a fragmented system based on what he saw and heard at the time, Gan Ning had already combined what he had learned from Meng Kangbu with his own situation and the situation of the Han Dynasty navy.
Most of the things were discarded.
Because the situation of the Han Dynasty is very different from that of the Kushan Dynasty, there is indeed a commonality of techniques and tactics between the two sides, but if it is forced, it will be tantamount to fundamentally distorting the development of the Han Dynasty navy. Therefore, Gan Ning directly used the essence of the Han Dynasty.
, discarding its dross and forcibly incorporating Kushan's techniques and tactics into the new direction of the navy that he developed.
That is the big ship and cannon mode. The most powerful thing on land is undoubtedly the crossbow. Then move the crossbow to the battleship and directly use the crossbow's lethality to make up for the long-range destructive power of the battleship. The crossbow is not powerful enough.
Then develop a more powerful crossbow machine.
If the medium-sized crossbow is not powerful enough to deal fatal damage, then use a heavy-duty crossbow. If the heavy-duty crossbow is not powerful enough, it can continue to be increased to super-heavy. Later, there will be almost permanent construction-type crossbows. As for the reaction force,
The ships can be built bigger and stronger. The Han family's ships are not Kushan's sissy ships. They are not good in other aspects, but they are definitely the direction of city wall development!
What's more, if it doesn't work, you can add heaven and earth essence etching technology and cloud gas transformation technology to enhance the lethality. Anyway, no one has walked this road, so no matter how hard you try, it will be right!
In short, the problem of firepower can be solved with ballistae, and the problem of fort base can also be solved with the size of the ship. Unlike the previous naval battles when jumping ship, Gan Ning's superiority over others was revealed at this moment.
of vividly.
Unlike those conservatives, Gan Ning has his own imagination in tactics. As long as there are problems with the previous tactics, he dares to abandon them without politeness and directly use new tactics. As for the dangers of new tactics
Compared with the old tactics that have been completely cracked, even if the new tactics are dangerous and have loopholes, Gan Ning doesn't care.
After all, even if there are loopholes in the newly released gadgets, if you can find them the first time you see them and counteract them the moment you see them, Gan Ning said, you can do this.
, then what else do I have to say, just consider me unlucky.
Therefore, Gan Ning obviously learned a Kushan naval system in detail from Meng Kangbu, but after discovering that the core of this system was Kushan's unique visualization, Gan Ning unceremoniously changed it
Abandon most of it, even if he understands that this system has very obvious advantages.
