Chapter 779: Xu Gongming is in command of the sailor
The famous sailor of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Hui mainly remembers the Cai brothers who were killed by Cao Cao.
Both of them are now in the hands of Liu Biao, in charge of the Jingzhou Water Division.
The other is Lu Meng Ganning on the side of Dongwu, these two are both capable generals of Dongwu, and they are extremely good at water warfare and foot warfare, as well as Zhou Yu, and there may be others, but Zhao Hui has no impression.
Zhou Yu is now like a brother to Sun Ce, and Lu Bu also works under Sun Ce.
However, the current Lu Meng is in his early twenties and has not been reused by Sun Ce.
The other is Gan Ning, there is no news yet.
Gan Ning is a native of Shuzhong, but he has left Ba County, and now he doesn't know where he is, he is just a nobody.
Guo Jia said: "I have already sent people to contact the Cai brothers and Lu Meng, but none of the three of them nodded. ”
The younger sister of the Cai brothers is now Liu Biao's wife, and gave birth to Liu Biao's youngest son, Liu Cong.
Although the Cai brothers are not loyal people, at this point in time, it is a bit difficult to persuade them to come to Jizhou to train sailors.
Zhao Hui himself didn't like these two either.
Of course, what he wants most is Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are like brothers, and Zhao Hui has no hope.
The other is Lu Meng, Lu Meng is only three years younger than Zhou Yu, but the current Lu Meng's ability is far inferior to the majestic Zhou Yu.
He is still the former Wuxia Ameng, and now Lu Meng is still in the learning and growth stage.
In Eastern Wu, there are many people who are stronger than him, whether it is Huang Gai Chengpu and other generals left by Sun Jian, or Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao recruited by Sun Ce himself, they are far stronger than Lu Meng.
So the current Lu Meng is not paid much attention to in Eastern Wu, although he is in Eastern Wu, but Lu Meng is now just following his brother-in-law Deng Dang.
Sun Ce didn't even know that there was such a person as Lu Meng.
Among these people, Lu Meng is the most likely to be persuaded to come to Jizhou.
It is also the person that Zhao Hui thinks is most likely, and at the same time Zhao Hui also wants.
"Then Lu Meng, why don't you agree?"
Lu Meng is not taken seriously now, he just follows his brother-in-law, but his brother-in-law Deng Dang is just another Sima now, and he can't give anything to Lu Meng.
Deng Dang himself was also a general in Sun Ce's hands, and he was also ranked outside the dozens.
Guo Jia said: "Lu Meng refused to leave Soochow, it seems that his brother-in-law is seriously ill. ”
"That's it, let's let people stare at it first."
Lu Meng is just a general now, not a handsome talent.
Now he still needs a lot of accumulation.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are both young heroes, and their status will not be limited by a person's age and limitations.
If Lu Meng really had the style of a general now, Sun Ce would not bury him.
"Keep sending people to look for it, and let them get acquainted with the water first."
If there is no good sailor general, Zhao Hui is ready to train one himself.
It's just that in terms of time, it may take a few more years.
Zhao Hui himself doesn't know much about water warfare, but he only knows some superficial tactics.
But this knowledge of water warfare is enough to train a sailor general.
"The sailor is trained in Qingzhou, and there is Commander Xu Huang for the time being." Zhao Hui said.
Xu Huang Zhijun and Zhao Hui are definitely a hundred at ease.
Although Xu Huang doesn't know how to water, the main training of the sailor at present is in water-based training.
Xu Huang is still competent.
In addition, Xu Huang himself can't be left behind, if there is no suitable choice of sailor generals, Zhao Hui's first choice at that time is still Xu Huang.
The influence of individual force in water warfare is much lower than that in infantry and cavalry combat.
What is more testing is the commander's command, and all kinds of warships change formations.
Most northerners are afraid of water, and not necessarily one out of ten people knows water.
Qingzhou is close to the sea, and the best training point is naturally by the sea.
However, when Xu Huang first started, he did not immediately take people to the beach for training.
There were 10,000 soldiers in total, and they were incorporated into the Naval Division.
But out of 10,000 people, only a few hundred know how to water, and the water nature can only be said to be so-so, and they can barely be drowned when they fall into the water.
Now pull to the sea, no one dares to go into the sea at all.
Even if Xu Huang forcibly drove them into the sea, it is estimated that if a wave comes, there will be only 5,000 people left out of 10,000 people.
So Xu Huang decided that this water-based training should be placed in Qingzhou, in Donglai County.
At first, in the waist-only river water, after the person can be lifted up, he slowly enters the deep water area.
The water war is just the beginning, Zhao Hui's sailor, but the other half of the ocean is going to be behind.
Although most people are reluctant to go into the water.
But the 10,000 sailors that Zhao Hui gave to Xu Huang were not forced to organize those infantry into sailors.
After learning the news, these 10,000 people voluntarily signed up in the army and were recruited from various armies.
To be able to make these landlubbers voluntarily sign up for the water division, it is natural that the water division is better treated and has various subsidies.
It took Xu Huang a month to finally learn the nature of water.
At this moment, he put on a pair of trousers, and sank to the bottom of the river, touching the smooth stones at the bottom of the river with both hands.
People who don't know how to be watery are scared to sink to the bottom.
But when you learn to swim, soaking in the water is extremely comfortable.
Although the river water is a little cold, it is nothing to Xu Huang's physique.
Feeling that the qi in his body was about to be held back, Xu Huang swung his feet and went straight up from the bottom of the river, and then a splash sounded, half of his body exposed the water, opened his mouth and inhaled a few breaths.
"It's comfortable."
Beside him was a group of sleek soldiers.
Some people were swimming, some people were making splashes, laughter, scolding, and resounding in the river from time to time.
History is a month, 10,000 sailors, and most people will do it.
However, there are still some people who are real landlubbers and can't learn no matter how they learn.
If your feet don't step on the bottom of the river, your body will immediately sink and watch the river gurgle and clatter.
For these things that had taken a month and had not been able to learn, Xu Huang was ready to return them.
These people may be giving them a few months to learn, but Xu Huang doesn't have so much time for them.
He was ready to take the sailor to the beach.
The warships are all docked in the port, and these sailors, after all, still have to board the warships and go to sea.
Not only did they have to learn how to be watery, but when they were on a warship, they had to make sure that their bodies were stable, and they couldn't vomit weakly on all fours as soon as they got on the boat.
The soldiers, who had not yet learned the nature of water, were devastated when they learned that they were going to be sent back.
But there is no way.
Training in Xu Huang's hands, a month, failed to learn, it's not that they are lazy.
It's that they really can't learn.
Even if they were given another month, there was no guarantee that they would learn.
He doesn't know how to be watery, and he has no face to say that he is a water master.
These people, even if they don't want to leave in their hearts, can only silently pack their bags and return to their original team.
