Qiu Chengcheng was valued by Vesutiva I not just because he was born in a royal family. His status and bloodline were indeed a plus for him, but a large part of his ability to be transferred to the navy as commander by Vesudeva I was
The reason is that when the situation is unstable, this guy will make decisive choices and execute orders based on this choice.
Of course, it's not as good as Zhong Yao's weird talent of making the right choice instantly, but when the situation is not good, making a choice may be more important than right or wrong.
What's more, the judgments given by Masinde generally don't have too many deviations. The judgments made based on this are not necessarily correct, but they are definitely very good choices.
The Thousand Sail Navy of Kushan sounds scary, but in fact the main force is only 300 ships. Most of them are the fifth-generation ships that have been basically eliminated by the Han Dynasty. They are not even considered large among fishing boats now.
fourth generation ship.
However, even if these battleships are used as the main body, one has to admit that Kushan's navy is indeed huge. At least in the Han Dynasty for so many years, after Chen Xi took over, the fourth-generation ships and fifth-generation ships produced combined are not so many.
"Lochte, you should stay in the water village and sit here. Although there shouldn't be any problems, this is our foundation on the front line after all. Someone must be here." Qiuri Zhe left his adjutant behind without hesitation.
In the water village.
"Is it really necessary to dispatch so many battleships?" Lochte felt inexplicably depressed. Even if he did not have the foresight of Masinde, the habit he had developed with Chuli Que for many years also made him feel that at present,
This formation does not look like it is going to deal with the Han navy.
"Zhu Jiayebo's flagship has sunk." Qiuri Que said to all the generals with an ugly look on his face, "You all know his level. He is also ranked among the top three among us. His secret skill of cloud energy is even better.
His control was extremely good, but his flagship sank."
When all the naval officers heard this, their expressions darkened. They, like Qiuri Que, imagined that after a fierce battle, Zhu Kasyapa was limited by the size of the warship and was killed by the other party's flagship.
"That person also participated in the war, and he also sent back for help." Qiuri Que said calmly, and the generals present instantly understood who he was talking about. Although there were many people present who couldn't stand Masinde, but just
Just like Li You from the Han Dynasty, you have to endure it even if you don't like me.
Masinde is also such a character, and I can't stand it, but to be fair, there is probably no one among this group of people who can defeat Masinde in a naval battle. Don't look at the other person who became a monk halfway, but he is immersed in it.
Ten years is no joke.
"Two years ago, the Han army's entire large fleet was easily defeated when facing Ghazni and Zhu Kasyapa, and I think you also know how little damage they suffered. But now they are facing me.
The two fleets of the army can still make some gains, and their scale is definitely not small. I intend to mobilize all the main battleships and the Han Dynasty navy to decide the outcome." Qiuri Que declared loudly, completely suppressing the whispers of others.
.
"If we win this battle and the losses are still within the acceptable range, we will follow Masinde's previous suggestion and go north to attack the Han Dynasty mainland to create opportunities for Your Majesty!" Qiuri Que said loudly.
Now the whole navy is not calm. Even if you didn't know before, you should know now how powerful the Han army is. It sounds good to attack the Han Dynasty, but when you think about what the consequences will be, most navy captains are a little confused.
He has a big head. Since the Huns, who dared to go wild in the Han Dynasty, who has not been beaten to the point of paralysis, lying next to him and waiting to die?
"I know you are hesitant, and I know you are afraid of the Han Dynasty, but the Han Dynasty's warships hit our lungs and destroyed our flagship. Do you think the Han Dynasty and we Kushan can still sit together?
?No way!" Qiu Lique shouted loudly, "We have also conquered the four directions, wiped out the unconquered, and ruled the empire for hundreds of years. Can you endure this humiliation?"
Qiuli Que's roar made all the captains feel tight in their chests. How could they feel comfortable? In the past, they used to show off their power on other people's territory, but now they are blocked by others. After a hundred years, Kuishang is no longer the bad guy he used to be.
He also has his own face and his own pride.
"Let's go and have a fight with the Han Dynasty, defeat them, and let them know that we are not easy to mess with. We have not lived in vain for a hundred years!" Qiulique preached loudly, and all the captains looked at him.
, the blood in his chest was agitated, and his morale also rose sharply.
"Now pick up your weapons, bring your own soldiers, and get on the ship. Let's destroy the Han Dynasty's navy and tell them who is the boss of this place!" Qiuri Que raised his sword and preached high, and all the captains also
The blood surged up, and there was no longer any hesitation.
After the commander-in-chief of the main fleet left, Qiu Li indeed took a breath and sat on the throne, while Lochte sighed and asked, "General, can we really defeat the Han Dynasty?"
"Yes!" Qiu Lize said firmly, "Even if the Han army has made great progress in a short period of time, it is absolutely impossible to defeat us at sea. Just two years is not enough for them to make up for the shortcomings in the navy.
"Ban, if they can defeat Zhu Kasyapa this time, they must find another way, but this method will definitely not be able to make up for all the shortcomings."
"Indeed." Lochte felt a little confident.
There is no way, few of those people in Kushan who can really fight will look down on the Han Dynasty, because they know very well what they, their fathers, their grandfathers, and their great ancestors have been fighting for for so many years. To put it bluntly, no
Just to prove to the Han Dynasty that we are qualified!
After Dayuezhi was hacked to the point of paralysis by the Xiongnu, he actually lost his courage. For more than a hundred years, he was almost a subsidiary of the Kingdom of Bactria, and the Kingdom of Bactria was casually destroyed by one of the seven Parthian nobles. At that time
You can imagine how weak the Da Yuezhi is.
It can be said that Da Yuezhi was still a scumbag at that time. Even when he came to Yan Gaozhen later, he was actually just a small king with a very small area. In reality, such a small king was basically useless in places like Central Asia.
Maybe get up.
However, Kuishang has risen unexpectedly. To be honest, many of the reasons for this are Banchao.
Because Kuishang really rose to prominence after being pinned down and rubbed in the dirt by Ban Chao. That time really gave Kushan a huge blow. It was like a man who worked hard to prove that he was not a bastard and wanted to marry
The local leopard who is the daughter of the rich family next door was severely stabbed in the heart by the other party.
Let’s not talk about the Xiongnu. That guy Da Yuezhi also knows that he can’t compare. If he is not a mortal enemy of the Han Dynasty, then the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty might be Qin Chu. To put it simply, the queen of Qin is often from Chu.
Princess, after all, both sides are relatively equal in strength.
But at that time, the Yueshi, who had a territory, felt that they were more powerful than Wusun. Wusun had married two Han clan eldest daughters, but at least he was stronger than Shanshan.
Shanshan also married. Although everyone knew that she was a palace maid, at least she was given the title of princess when she was given the gift. Yuezhi felt that she had a pretty face, and she also made great efforts to find a princess.
It’s not possible to give it to the best, but it’s okay to give it to the eldest daughter of the fifth server.
However, his face was swollen by Ban Chao, and without saying anything, the Yuezhi was abruptly woken up. After all, his ancestors were rich. When the Yuezhi was at his most powerful, he and Donghu divided the northern border, and the Huns were not even worthy of carrying their shoes.
As a result, Yuezhi woke up from her sweet dream after her face was swollen.
It can be said that the generation of northern nobles who founded the Kushan Kingdom all remembered this incident, held their breath and went south to fight, and then passed this incident down. If you really want to say it, it did take a long time, but in short, in fact
It is also very short, with only five generations of people living in Beigui.
The ancestor was slapped in the face so hard that this group of people suddenly realized that they were not even as good as a small country like Shanshan. At least when the Han Dynasty faced Shanshan Country, they were perfunctory and gave it to a palace maid.
When it was his turn, he was slapped directly.
It hurt so much that the Yuezhi woke up and remembered it for the rest of his life. He also asked his children and grandchildren to remember it before he died. Even after the two sides broke off contact for more than a hundred years, the Kushan envoys were able to run to the Han Dynasty smoothly.
Oh my god, how deeply do you remember this?
Maybe the southern Brahmins didn't have any deep feelings, but if they were from the northern aristocracy, they could remember that incident for a lifetime, and the deep impression was enough to make them remember the power of the Han Dynasty forever.
This is their shadow, and it is also their driving force. The shadows of the five generations have accumulated to this day, and they still dare to punch the Han Dynasty. It can only be said that Kushan has really worked hard to become stronger in these hundreds of years.
"Guard the camp here, and let's kill the Han navy first." Qiulique's words not only strengthened Lohit's confidence, but also strengthened his own confidence. What happened to Zhu Kasyapa was indeed
It put a lot of pressure on Qiuli Que, and also gave him the idea of killing the Han Dynasty navy and curbing the opponent's barbaric growth.
It's not a problem if the ship is gone, but if the people are gone, Qiu Li really doesn't believe that the Han Dynasty can quickly find tens of thousands of sailors who are good at naval warfare. The navy is more difficult to train than the cavalry!
"Well, don't worry, I'll let you know if there are any problems here." Lochte said with a smile, "Besides, we have recruited almost 100,000 natives, and there are still 600 to 700 small ships. Even if
Even if the main force of the Han army turns around, I can drag you back."
"This is unlikely, but you just have to keep it safe." Qiu Li indeed shook his head and said.
After arranging things in the water village, Qiu Li indeed took his headquarters aboard the largest warship in the entire Thousand Sail Navy. Although it was still smaller than the castrated version of the seventh-generation ship, this was already the first time for Kushan craftsmen to board the ship.
After the design was completed, it was the largest ship produced.
As Qiuri Que boarded the ship, hundreds of main warships stationed in Malacca soon unloaded their anchors and rushed towards the location where Zhu He came to send the message.
