Chapter 634: Zhang Guo's Talent
The sea ship fleet is further up to the two major fleets, which are definitely at the strategic level, and the commander of the fleet is second only to the chief and deputy commanders of the guards and sailors. "It's a pity that the two fleets have not yet been finalized, and they are too large to stay in the pending constitution of the Privy Council.
Zhang Guo commanded the patrol warships, and he can be regarded as the commander of the brigade, and the future is not broad.
Li Chang commanded a forward sea ship team, which was equivalent to the rank of commander of the military capital, but he was not a regular official, because his handsome flag was not a golden anchor, or even a three-silver anchor, and it was only a power test according to the practice of the imperial court.
He suppressed his stomach full of thoughts, and looked at Zhang Guo with a smile, this guy has taken the relationship since Shamen Island and participated in the war.
In the end, when the team was formed, the Eagle Warrior became the ship under the control of the forward sea ship warship.
The attack on the port of the Jin Army was very secretive, only a few people in the command of the guards and sailors knew about it, and Zhang Guo asked him more than once, but he just kept his mouth shut and did not answer, but Zhang Guo seemed to be very unwilling.
Zhang Guo saw that Li Chang smiled without saying a word, smiled awkwardly, and said: "From Shamen Island to the sea, I look at the tides and stars, we are heading northwest, it seems that we really want to go to Luanzhou, what I said is right."
Li Chang raised his eyebrows. He couldn't deny Zhang Guo's words, all the experienced and carefully observed old sailors, combined with Sinan, the sun, the stars, and the direction of the wind, and then compared with the topographic map, to estimate which military state to attack along the coast, it was generally not bad.
What's more, there is also the topographic map of the world and the topographic map of the Emperor and Song Dynasty published by the Yuquan Mountain Academy, which is a map drawn by Wang Xiu, which is said to be taken from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
At the same time, the Department of Military Affairs and the Department of Machinery and Speed of the Privy Council both had topographic survey institutions, and the envoys of all sizes were scattered in the name of business to draw more accurate pictures and texts of military importance, and the guard navy also had a fleet of ships specializing in surveying sea literature.
Of course, these top-secret maps passed to later generations and attracted the attention of historians in the absence of satellites. It is inconceivable that such a precise map can be drawn without precise scientific instruments, especially a world map, which has aroused active debate, and the Classic of Mountains and Seas has been valued by the world.
"You'll understand then," Li Chang said unhurriedly.
Zhang Guo frowned, and said unhappily: "What's the use of secrecy at sea, even if there are Jurchen meticulous works, it is impossible to fly to the shore to tell the truth." In fact, many sailors have understood that there is no need to deceive themselves and cheer everyone up."
Li Chang patted his forehead, what Zhang Guo said was very reasonable, the experienced old sailor definitely already knew the direction of the fleet, and it was pointless to conceal it at sea, so he couldn't help but said cheerfully: "Hit their port and capture the ship, okay?"
Zhang Guo looked at Li Chang slyly, blinked his eyes, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, as I expected, with this battle, the merit will never go down to Chibi, and the Three Purple Gold Anchor Banner will be the second brother's sooner or later." ”
Of course, Li Changyou has the ambition to become the commander of the guards and the navy, and he is also an ambitious warrior to become a privy envoy, and he did not avoid being told by Zhang Guo, and said with a faint smile: "Change, your ship must be close to the fire, and you must suppress the captives before you can do it." ”
Zhang Guo glanced at Li Chang, and did not object, Li Chang is known as the handsome of the nine sons of the royal family, since the Tang Dynasty entered the Shike, the only civil and military champion Lang has long been trained by the forbidden army, everyone understands that the future guards and naval forces are in command, and can even enter the two mansions with their military exploits.
Thinking that they are only one year apart, but the future is worlds apart, if he wants to achieve Li Chang's status today, it will take more than ten years of hard work to grind and survey, and it will still be smooth sailing, he can't help but sigh that Li Chang has excellent luck and can follow Mr. as soon as possible, think about Zong Liang, Li Chang, and Feng Yuan.
However, he suppressed his strange thoughts, no matter how envious he was, he had to rely on his own efforts, and said: "How many chances can you have if 5,000 people land on the transfer ship?"
Li Chang knew that Zhang Guo had asked about the point, what could thousands of sailors do when they went ashore, in case the Jin army and horse team were waiting for the battle, and the odds of victory could be a few points, he couldn't help but hesitate: "Surprise attack, what kind of results can be achieved." ”
Zhang Guo raised his eyebrows and said playfully: "The second brother is busy with military affairs, and he didn't take a closer look at the sea power theory of the mountain chief."
Li Chang didn't like it, and reluctantly said, "Oh, you can talk about it." ”
"The navy actually takes the control of the sea as the foundation, and the goal of weakening the enemy country and even forcing it to surrender is the key to the decisive battle in the ocean and the control of the throat waterway. The landing operation is nothing but an auxiliary type of deterrence, seizing the island or serving as the vanguard of the Mabu army, controlling the landing ground and immediately establishing an offensive camp until the Mabu army forms a deterrent. ”
"However, the mountain chief also said another form, that is, the navy has its own horse infantry army, which can independently assume the responsibility of conquering small countries, but the scale is too large, and it is suitable for small countries in the South China Sea, not for the north."
"In this battle, thousands of soldiers of the Tiger Wing Army are only for training, and the mountain chief thinks about it very long-term, but what he didn't expect is that the climate in the north and the south is different, and the experience of the north cannot meet the needs of the South China Sea." Zhang Guo said a lot, which can be regarded as a wake-up call for Li Chang.
Li Chang bowed his head silently, he couldn't help but admit that Zhang Guo was a natural general of the navy, he only occasionally set foot in this field, but he was lucky, so he said: "What you said is good, but this battle still has to land, as long as you can destroy their navy, even if you pay a few thousand people, it is worth it." ”
"It's a pity to pay thousands of elite soldiers for those few broken ships." Zhang Guo shook his head and did not agree with Li Chang's opinion.
Li Chang raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "There is a good way to change it."
"Second brother, our main task is on the sea, and the intention of the mountain chief is very obvious, to annihilate the captive naval army and sea ships, and then pull the Tiger Wing Army up to practice their hands." Zhang Guo smiled meaningfully.
Li Chang is a little unpredictable, but it doesn't prevent him from understanding, Zhang Guo obviously doesn't explain it, he is waiting for the price to sell, anyway, they are all the same door, what can he do if he is given a chance, anyway, it will increase his strength, and he smiled at the moment: "Come on, I will release the clipper later, and follow me to the commander ship." ”
He rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, second brother, let's go down to eat, and then the dinner will be cold." ”
"The appetite for the food is too monotonous, it's really hard to swallow" Li Chang shook his head with a wry smile, he really didn't want to eat the food on the ship, there were bean sprouts every day.
"You have to eat if you don't want to, it's not good to be hungry. Anyway, the mountain chief mentioned that he would improve the food of the water army, and it was estimated that he would be comfortable after the battle. Zhang Guo laughed.
"Fortunately, there are fresh fish with nets, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to swallow it." Li Changyi waved his hand and walked to the lower warehouse
