Chapter 1367 The iron chain connects the boat, like walking on the ground
The spirit world rules' reply was very cold, but Bai Xiaowen had some confidence in his heart.
It seems that his manipulation of Yuanli is still not proficient enough.
If you are proficient in controlling Yuanli, you should be able to attach it to weapons, or even long-range weapons and ammunition.
The charge of long-range shooting is much more concealed than the charge of punching in melee combat, and can have a surprise victory effect. Moreover, the basic damage of using weapons to attack is higher than that of fist and kick attacks, and there is a greater chance of triggering the instant kill effect.
Bai Xiaowen then took out a geographical map of mountains and rivers.
He had just received a reminder that with the unlocking of Yuanli's special skills, a new feature of the mountain and river geography map had also been unlocked.
After unfolding it, Bai Xiaowen looked at the existing descriptions of the mountain and river geography map.
[Geographic map of mountains and rivers: S-level golden props, a treasure map of the world that carries the destiny of heaven. Based on the ability of the binder, the functions currently enabled on this map are: 1. Check the terrain of the current plane (space). 2. Search for targets
Position.3, Prayer: Designate a target area and change the weather conditions in that area.】
There is another line at the end:
"Note: Activating the praying function requires consuming the user's energy; using the praying function will cause the hidden attribute: luck to be temporarily reduced, and exert a negative impact on the caster in the form of weather changes."
"Prayers will reduce luck?"
Bai Xiaowen scratched his chin. Although this attention message was annotated in small characters and written vaguely, Bai Xiaowen quickly understood its meaning.
The art of praying for peace has the power to change the weather and reverse nature, but it naturally also has negative costs.
Just like Zhuge Liang, during the Battle of Red Cliff, he used the art of praying to borrow three days of east wind to help Zhou Yu burn Red Cliff, thus establishing the Three Kingdoms.
Later in the novel, when he burned Sima Yi in Shangfang Valley, an unexpected rainstorm happened.
Zhuge Liang was good at observing the sky. If there was a sign of rain, how could he not know it?
According to Bai Xiaowen's understanding, this is the negative impact God exerted on Zhuge Liang in the form of "climate changes". The east wind borrowed back then will one day be returned.
However, this negative impact can be basically ignored for Bai Xiaowen, an awakened person.
Bai Xiaowen is still looking forward to what kind of sparks will be created between Yuanli's special skills and the Heavenly Book Volume "Taiping Shu", which records various Taoist miraculous arts.
With Yuanli, Bai Xiaowen is qualified to learn and perform Taoism.
Bai Xiaowen was about to return to his tent to rest when he suddenly heard a cry of murder coming from the river.
Soon someone came to report that the Jiangdong Navy sent more than 20 clippers to attack the water village.
The counselors on the left and right said: "There is no other way now but to order the navy commander Han Song to meet the enemy."
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. Sending Han Song into battle now to confront Zhou Yu's naval forces was purely looking for abuse. Besides, he also promised Han Song that he would not send him into battle to meet the enemy. His task was only to set up a navy camp.
"Restrain the ships in the water village, shrink inward, and move closer to the dry village." Bai Xiaowen gave the first order, and at the same time moved to the upper ship to observe the battle and give command.
On the building ship, Bai Xiaowen saw the Jiangdong Navy Clipper, turning around smoothly and moving back and forth like flying. However, his subordinates, the northern soldiers on the Navy ship, were not used to the water and could not stand firmly on the ship, even while driving the ship.
They are all as slow as a turtle crawling, let alone firing arrows to defend against the enemy.
Jiangdong navy rushed over, and the navy under Bai Xiaowen was in chaos. Several stern ships were sunk, and many sailors who had temporarily changed their jobs fell into the water and drowned.
"Old Han." Bai Xiaowen said in a deep voice in the team channel.
Han Xu agreed, sighted an area with dense naval forces in Jiangdong, and suddenly launched a deep-sea attack!
A huge ghost ship came through the waves and crashed into the target area, splashing waves several feet high. The two nearest Jiangdong ships capsized immediately. The Jiangdong sailors on the ship also fell into the water one after another, fainting.
In a dizzy state, it kept sinking underwater.
Jiangdong's army was taken aback and slowed down its offensive. Bai Xiaowen sounded the golden signal, and the navy ships moved closer to the shore.
However, Han Xu's deep sea impact, after all, is only a drop in the bucket when used on such a large army battlefield. The Jiangdong navy was not intimidated, and soon beat the drum again, and twenty speedboats bit the tail of the northern navy and chased it.
Attack.
Seeing him approaching, Bai Xiaowen ordered to fire arrows.
Cecilia and General Murong Ping, who were well prepared, each led thousands of archers and fired arrows at the twenty Jiangdong clippers.
This hail of arrows finally forced the Jiangdong Navy back, but judging from the opponent's losses, I'm afraid they were only two or three ships and a hundred sailors. Bai Xiaowen's losses were several times that of the opponent.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, Bai Xiaowen ordered the drums to be beaten and the tent raised.
The counselors and generals all saw the battle between the navy and the navy last night, and all of them looked grave.
Han Song knelt down to plead guilty, and Bai Xiaowen said gently: "You and Gu have a word before sending you to the battlefield. What crime do you have? Just focus on training sailors for Gu."
Han Song thanked him and got up and returned to the queue.
Bai Xiaowen glanced at his subordinate Wen Wu and said: "The elite of the Jiangdong navy was evident last night. If you want to go to Jiangdong, this vast river is an obstacle that must be overcome."
Xun You said: "The Yangtze River is stormy and the waves are rough. Our soldiers are bumping on the boats and their footing is unstable, making it difficult to fight."
Bai Xiaowen nodded and said: "I came up with a plan last night. I can order people to build iron chains to connect many buildings and ships together to resist the wind and waves. What do you think?"
Everyone was lost in thought.
It was Xun You who was the first to say: "Although the king's plan is good, he is afraid of fire attack. If Sun Ce and Zhou Yu set fire to the ships and burn one ship, the other ships will be on fire, and our army will be in danger."
After a pause, Xun You said again: "It is spring at this time, and the southeast wind is strong. Please be careful."
Xun You didn't need to speak too clearly, because he knew Bai Xiaowen's wisdom, and it was enough to just point it out.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "I have already considered this. However, the fire attack strategy can be prevented; the problem of bumpy waves and seasickness of soldiers is imminent. It must be solved by connecting boats with iron ropes. Otherwise, how can we talk about the southern expedition? Two evils.
If you have power, take the lighter one."
Xun You surrendered without saying a word and returned to the queue.
Bai Xiaowen then ordered people to supervise the construction of iron chains. The generals dispersed, and only one person remained, Kuai Yue.
Kuai Yue offered advice: "Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Why doesn't the king send his spies across the river and wait for an opportunity to deliver the message?"
Bai Xiaowen asked: "Who can use it?"
Kuai Yue said: "Cai Mao has two clan brothers, named Cai Zhong and Cai He. When the king granted the Jingzhou gentry a few days ago, he did not reward the Cai Zhong brothers because of Cai Mao's death. So these two people can be treated coldly.
Fakely surrender to Wu."
Bai Xiaowen smiled. He had deliberately not rewarded the second brother of the Cai family at first, but he was just thinking about it carefully. Unexpectedly, Kuai Yue mentioned it first.
