Chapter Seventy-Four: Crossing the Sea
Even though the soldiers of the Gunpowder Army led by Yuan Yun were all trained by water, when they actually reached the sea, many people began to vomit constantly, after all, staying on the ship all day and training for only two hours a day were two completely different worlds.
The most terrible thing is that the departure time is at the end of summer, and the most typhoon weather in this kind of season is the typhoon weather, Yuan Yun did not consider the danger before setting off, but in the face of the fleeting fighter, he could only choose to forcibly cross the sea.
Seeing the huge waves crashing on the deck of the ship, Yuan Yun's brows furrowed tightly, now there are more than a thousand people loaded on each big ship, if one is accidentally overturned by the waves, the loss is definitely not a small number.
When he thought of this, Yuan Yun kept circling the word 'kamikaze' in his mind, the attack of the Mongols on Japan in history was because of the typhoon, which led to the death of more than 100,000 people, and now when he faced this monstrous wave, he suddenly understood the helplessness of those Mongols at that time.
"Our captain of the Wang clan is very familiar with these waterways, and we try to move forward as close to the coast as possible, so it is unlikely that the ship will capsize, Brother Yun can rest assured." When Diao Chan spoke, he had already brought a bowl of ginger soup.
Soon after sailing, the fleet encountered this typhoon, Yuan Yun kept walking on the deck to watch because he was worried, resulting in being poured cold by the sea, Diao Chan brought ginger soup at the moment because he was worried that Yuan Yun would suffer from typhoid fever, and the battle behind him would not work without a coach.
Yuan Yun took the ginger soup handed by Diao Chan and drank it all in one gulp, and then sighed: "You really shouldn't come with me this time, there are many typhoons in summer, and the sea is not safe, so you took such a risk to come with me, which really makes me feel sorry." ”
Diao Chan shook his head and said with a smile: "It's just to accompany Brother Yun to the sea together, even if it is the Sword Mountain Fire Sea Diao Chan doesn't mind, these small typhoons are nothing at all, and then those soldiers who don't go to sea will suffer, such waves will definitely make them very uncomfortable."
Speaking of which, the concubine is a little strange, this is Brother Yun's first time going to sea, why are you not half uncomfortable, but seem to have been used to it for a long time. ”
It is impossible for Yuan Yun to say that in the past, his research institute was by the sea, so he could only pull some things around, and finally it was a fool.
Diao Chan cut his broken hair, and then continued: "The concubine not only has to accompany Brother Yun to the sea this time, so there is no fear of such a storm at all, but Brother Yun should pay more attention to his body, after all, you are the commander of more than 20,000 people, and you must not make any mistakes." ”
Yuan Yun showed a touched look, but still shook his head and sighed: "The power of nature is not something that people can guess, nothing is certain, I am just a little worried that such a typhoon will make many soldiers uncomfortable, and there are definitely not a few people who will vomit in the cabin, and the sanitary conditions must be paid attention to, I don't want to become sick when I go ashore." ”
Speaking of this, Yuan Yun paused slightly, put the bowl containing ginger soup in the cage, and then continued: "We should also pay special attention to the firearms we carry, those things will definitely not withstand watering. ”
Diao Chan smiled when he heard this, and then replied: "Brother Yun is too worried, the Wang family is not rolling on the sea for a day or two, these will be properly taken care of, you better rest early, such a day will be at least ten days to try, you can't go without sleeping and resting all the time, right?" ”
Yuan Yun nodded, but instead of thinking about resting, he asked again, "What is Brother Kong Ming doing at the moment?" ”
Diao Chan replied: "When the concubine came, I happened to meet him in the cabin, and he seemed to be studying the map sent by Zhao Yun and Deng Ai. ”
After Yuan Yun sighed, he immediately put on his robe, and then planned to go to Zhuge Liang to take a look, looking at Yuan Yun who had left, Diao Chan could only shake his head helplessly, now he is just working so the big ship, and when he arrives at the border of Liaodong, it must be even more difficult.
Zhuge Liang saw Yuan Yun approaching the cabin, and immediately pointed to the opposite position with the feather fan in his hand, and then said with a smile: "The lord is so late and still hasn't rested, as a handsome, you have to pay more attention to your body." ”
Yuan Yun shrugged his shoulders and said: "My handsome man is just a false position, it is you who are really working hard, this will worry about me, it is better to worry more about the body of the old general Huang Zhong, and I don't know if he can survive such a bump." ”
Zhuge Liang smiled: "It's okay, Old Man Huang Zhong just went back from Liang just now, and these waves have no effect on him at all." ”
Yuan Yun had already sat down at this moment, slightly stabilized his body that was shaken by the big ship, and then said: "Ten days later, we will almost land on the coast of Liaodong, where hundreds of miles are deserted, but it is a harbor opened up by the Wang family because of smuggling, so safety is not a problem, but we must be very careful after we land." ”
Zhuge Liang snorted and said: "Fortunately, we chose to come over in the summer, if it is changed to winter, just the severe cold faced after the landing will make Liang extremely worried, now as long as we land smoothly, we can drive straight in, according to Deng Ai's intelligence along the way, there are not many troops to guard, Sima Yi seems to have sent all the combatable resources to Jizhou and Qingzhou, so it is really cheap for us." ”
Yuan Yun said: "No matter how smart Sima Yi is, he would never have thought that we would cross the sea and take Liaodong directly, and when he received the news, he believed that we had completely destroyed all the workshops there, and if he rescued him, we would have boarded the ship and left." ”
Zhuge Liang hummed again, but said worriedly: "I hope Sima Yi will not set up too many defensive forces in this so-called new city, otherwise we will still be very dangerous, once the war drags on in the autumn, we can only choose to retreat, this time we did not bring warm clothing." ”
Yuan Yun also seemed a little worried at this time, after all, the more than eighty tanks that he cared about the most had not appeared until now, and Sima Yi had such a force in his hands, but he didn't need to be on the front line, so it was most likely placed in Liaodong.
And the terrain of Liaodong is extremely flat, which is most suitable for these steel monsters to gallop, if you find that these more than 80 tanks are really hoarded here, it is really not how to face it, this is probably the real lifting of a stone to shoot yourself in the foot, back then I came up with this kind of weapon, I didn't use it much, but it was all cheap Sima Yi.
"But you're worried about the tanks?" Zhuge Liang suddenly asked.
Yuan Yun nodded and said, "The carrier pigeons were also sent from Guandu before, and I didn't find out that Sima Yi had used those sharp weapons, so I was more worried that Sima Yi would put these tanks in Liaodong to guard against the rebellion of the Xianbei Ministry."
If that's the case, it's equivalent to being bumped into by us, and you can only consider yourself unlucky. ”
Zhuge Liang frowned and asked, "Is there a way to deal with it, after all, those steel monsters are from the hands of the lord." ”
Yuan Yun thought about it, and then nodded: "There is a way to deal with it, but it is not easy, and it is very dangerous, once the other party discovers us in advance, and then lets the tanks form a phalanx, we really have no chance of winning at all." ”
Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and said: "It's good that there is a way, this time we must implement a scorched earth policy along the way, no matter what living things are, they must be destroyed, and if they encounter the village, they can only be completely flattened, otherwise a bad news will leak."
Liang has already sent a letter to Zhao Yun and Deng Ai, asking them to choose a road without a village as much as possible, but there are many Orion villages in Liaodong, and the range of activities of these Orions is very large, I don't know if we will really be exposed in advance, counting in many conditions, there are still many disadvantages for us, speaking of this sneak attack, Liang is not too much in agreement, in fact, as long as we maintain a defensive position on the frontal battlefield, after two or three years of confrontation, Sima Yi's baggage armaments will inevitably not be able to keep up, and sooner or later we will be wiped out. ”
Looking at Zhuge Liang, who was unwilling to take risks, Yuan Yun had a sense of familiarity, after all, this is what the history books said about him, so in order to increase some confidence for Zhuge Liang, he could only smile and say: "Because of this, Sima Yi will not guess that we will take the risk of sneaking attack from behind, so the defense here will inevitably be relaxed, this must be said to be an opportunity, sometimes taking some risks can reap greater benefits, once we destroy Sima Yi's old capital in Liaodong, he will no longer have any tricks, then this rebellion will inevitably end in a few months." ”
Even if Yuan Yun said this, Zhuge Liang still frowned, because in his opinion, this surprise attack on Liaodong was indeed very risky, in the past, the gunpowder army fought mainly by relying on strong supplies, and then crushing the opponent, and now the lone army is deep, not to mention the supply guarantee, and even the terrain is not familiar, so leading the army to fight is naturally very worrying.
Zhuge Liang hadn't slept well for a few nights because of this, and this lonely expedition was the biggest adventure in his life, and he was very detailed about all kinds of dangers, but even so, he still felt very uneasy.
The waves are constantly beating on the big ship, even if you sit in the cabin, you can still hear those huge sounds, and the continuous shaking all day long does make these northern gunpowder soldiers die and live, some people can't even stand it halfway, there are definitely not a few people who want to jump into the sea, but fortunately, Huang Zhong's army is very strict to prevent this kind of thing from happening.
Seeing that the soldiers of the Gunpowder Army were so uncomfortable, Yuan Yun also decided in his heart that this was the first time that the Gunpowder Army went to sea to land and operate, and it would also be the last, after all, the northerners were born with an aversion to water, and if they really wanted to organize a naval and land corps in the future, then it was best to choose from the southerners.
The typhoon lasted for two days, and on the third day, the sky immediately became clear above the sea, and finally the soldiers of the Gunpowder Army let out a sullen breath, and some of the soldiers who vomited jaundice water finally had the opportunity to bask in the sun on the deck.
In this way, a few days later, the big ship finally docked in a certain bay in Liaodong, and the speed of the soldiers getting off the ship was obviously much faster than when they boarded the ship, and when everyone logged in on the shore, Yuan Yun made the decision to stay for three days, because many people have completely collapsed, and many people can't eat and drink these days at sea, so they are not weak to have ghosts, so the first task now is to recover.
Fortunately, in addition to carrying people, Wang's big ship also carried a large amount of supplies, enough for 20,000 people to eat here, and when he saw the richness of the food he carried, Yuan Yun couldn't help but secretly thank Chen Deng, because he was really thoughtful.
And this Chen Deng is estimated to be in Guandu, but I don't know what kind of fate he will end up with after proposing to Cao Ang to let go of those rebellious clans in Yangzhou, at this point, Yuan Yun in order not to make Chen Deng look too out of line, so he sent a flying pigeon in advance, and first put forward that proposal, which is regarded as a guarantee for Chen Deng, and then it depends on whether Cao Ang's anger can be suppressed.
Looking at the waves that kept surging behind him, coupled with the very pleasant sound of the waves, Yuan Yun shook his head, now is not the time to worry about Chen Deng, the Gunpowder Army has landed, so the battle will follow. ()
