Chapter 375: An Unexpected Fleet
The entire Dreadnought Army is advancing the battle record and learning to reflect.
From Cai Yan himself to the novices who have just gotten a glimpse of the way in teaching literacy in Mintun, they are all working hard to record these deeds and gather them into a book, which has a long history.
On the other hand, Yuan Shao was also reflecting on the failure of this battle.
He suddenly summoned the soldiers and horses directly under Yan Liang and Zhang He to carry out a closed rectification in the name of rectifying the defeat of the party.
Soon, from the Chun Yuqiong general who was on a closed mission, there was a message that Zhang He, who was unfavorable to the rescue, was to be severely punished. Koji Yi and the others were shocked, and they were a little uneasy in the face of the sudden change.
Soon after, a military Sima subordinate to Yan Liang escaped from the closed place. The man fled to the Koji military camp and was informed of the alleged details.
"Yuan Shao first humiliatingly criticized their performance in this campaign, and then forced them to review them one by one. ”
"The two generals, Yan Liang and Zhang He, were very ashamed, and even said some untrue situations and took the responsibility on themselves."
"Now, it is rumored in the army that Zhang He is going to be killed to warn other generals, and Yan Liang will also be degraded as a captain. I'm afraid that the next one will be you, General Koji! ”
Koji Yi was furious, and he soon deduced several times with Zhang He.
The two recovered several times on the sand table and found that as long as Yuan Tan tried his best to rescue Yan Liang, Wen Chou would not be killed.
Or maybe hold the front and don't fight. With Zhang He being prepared, he was clever in dealing with water attacks. That Yan Liang will definitely be saved.
And Zhang He also whispered to Lu Yi, "In recent days, he has seen several military officials on Yuan Tan's side, and I heard that countless mistakes have been made later, which led to the final collapse of the army. ”
Lu Yi replied, "If it weren't for the power of Junyi, reversing the defeat with Yan Liang and breaking the enemy army, it is estimated that Xin Ping, who is loyal to Yuan Tan, will also be killed!" ”
On that day, both of them sighed, but they were sure that Yuan Shao would not be like that, so they concentrated on fighting again.
He never expected that the situation would deteriorate so quickly. Recalling his mentor and friend to Zhang He, he became more and more indignant.
As a last resort, he sent people to Xun Chen, Tian Feng, Xu You, Feng Ji and others to walk around and speak for Zhang He.
However, I don't know if the content is too shocking, or if they all know something, but no one is indignant, but advises Koji Yi not to be impatient.
Just as he was moving around, an unexpected enemy was about to appear.
The sea at sunset is cosy and tranquil.
Spring here always comes late, and as soon as the sun goes down, the darkness of the mountains behind it will envelop the earth and the sky, and then it will be bitterly cold.
Two young generals stopped by the sea.
One of the generals in ink-colored armor took the lead and said, "This voyage is very long, and there are many places in between, and it is difficult for horses to bear it." ”
"It's okay, my night-shining jade lion can completely adapt."
The young man in the ink-colored armor thought for a moment and asked, "The other 1,500 cavalrymen, when they get there, there will really be people ready to prepare horses to greet them?" ”
"Even if Bai Ma Yicong returned to his hometown with an injury, he was always a very reliable partner. Coupled with the help of the merchants of the four seas, there will be war horses waiting for us there. ”
The young man in silver armor had a serious and confident face.
His eyes looked to the other side of the sea, where there was his hometown and family, but there was also the White Horse and countless righteous people who looked at each other with all sincerity.
"Where there is righteousness, there is me Changshan Zhao Zilong!"
He and the black-armored generals made the final preparations, and tomorrow they will set sail to make a big fuss.
They were followed by 2,000 Liaodong soldiers and ample supplies. There is even a group of Qingzhou soldiers and horses, who are in the other direction of the sea, ready to attack together.
Gongsun Du was also not far away looking at his son Gongsun Kang.
This time, let Gongsun Kang and Zhao Yun carry out a surprise attack, and the "battalion state soldiers" who hated Yuan Shao in Qingzhou would join the fleet and launch a surprise attack together.
Gongsun Du stroked his slightly white beard and sighed that time had flown by. Soon, he would be fifty years old.
"My good brother Xu Rong, this separation has been more than ten years. It has been almost ten years since you recommended me to Master Dong as the Taishou of Liaodong. ”
He recalled that when he was young, he and Xu Rong fought together against Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Goguryeo in Xuansu County.
At that time, the situation was much more dangerous than it is now, and I don't know how many relatives and friends did not have the opportunity to see today.
Today, Xu Rong assisted the granddaughter of Dong Taishi, as well as Tong Yuan, who recovered and merged the state and eliminated the Xiongnu.
And he also broke a world in Liaodong, so that Wuhuan and Xianbei could not loot wantonly, and Goguryeo in the east and Sanhan in the south could not merge.
"I wanted to cede the land and become king, but seeing your choice, let's work in one direction. Brother Xu Rong, I hope to expand the territory with you one day! ”
The fleets of Zhao Yun and Gongsun Kang headed south in the cold of early spring, and they did not sail directly to the west, landing directly from the later Jinghai or Cangzhou cities in Tianjin, but first headed south.
A number of islands along the way can be used for all kinds of merchant ships and fishing boats to rest.
At this time, the Jiaodong Peninsula and a considerable part of the Jiaodong Peninsula were under the control of Gongsun Du, so the route was unimpeded.
Still, something unexpected happened.
One day was a sunny day, and suddenly the comfortable southeast wind suddenly stopped and turned into a sharp northwest wind.
Under the strong winds, the Lou ship, which was not very suitable for sea navigation, had a certain deviation, but continuing to move forward did not prevent the fleet from reaching Donglai.
"To the southeast, there is a flotilla! The flag is a triangular yellow scarf! ”
The lookout eagerly warned Gongsun Kang that they had encountered an unexpected convoy.
This is a raiding fleet under the control of pirates!
Half an hour later, the convoy gradually approached the large cargo capacity and slower speed of the building.
Gongsun Kang said angrily, "This Guan Cheng, who usually plunders small boats, dares to approach the fleet of my army!" ”
Zhao Yun had already come to the side of the ship, staring intently at the fleet of the ship.
The more he looked at the ship, the more serious his face became.
Gongsun Kang asked, "Zilong, what's wrong?" Although these ships in charge are fast, they still can't beat us after all, because the building ships are higher and can be condescending. ”
Zhao Yun's expression did not relax because of Gongsun Kang's words.
He analyzed, "You see, the young general, their ship is much narrower than the building ship, but it is very fast, and the bow is raised high, and it can flexibly adjust the angle in the wind and waves. ”
Gongsun Kang listened to Zhao Yun's analysis, and also squinted his eyes and stared for a while. It's a pity that although Liaodong and Donglai are under the command of his father and son, he is still more familiar with cavalry than the sailors.
Zhao Yun analyzed, "What's even more terrifying is that after their ship entered the waves, it was not affected at all. But our building boat has to be careful of the waves at all times, and even has to be drained outside. ”
Gongsun Kang said: "I don't know much about ships and the sea. Later, I asked Mr. Yang Yi, who had been in charge of the fleet and trade in Liaodong. ”
Seeing that Guan Cheng's fleet was approaching, Gongsun Kang ordered the fleet to change formation, and the archers and melee soldiers were all in place, ready to meet the battle.
