It is not unreasonable for the navy army under Liu Biao to dare to be called the first in the world. Whether it is in terms of the morale and equipment of the soldiers, or the size and sharpness of the warships, as well as the amount of materials reserved, they all live up to the name of elite. Only before that, even heroes such as Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian's father and son did not ask for much good on the river.

On the other hand, on Qin Xu's side, even if there are warships urgently transferred from Jiankang, plus the two Jinfan warships under Gan Ning, they are a little more numerous, but whether it is in terms of troop allocation or the scale of warships, it is really not a grade worse than Liu Biao's navy under Huang Zu. To be honest, even Gan Ning, if he hadn't been a little unable to get off the stage because he was provoked by some words, what he wanted to do most at the moment would be to take advantage of the other party's unhappiness and distance themselves from each other as soon as possible. This has nothing to do with whether or not you are brave enough to be the first, rather than creating indifferent kills, it is better to avoid the truth and make a difference, and then find the field after resting.

But Gan Ning still agreed. He doesn't understand water warfare, and even has some misunderstandings about water warfare, although Gan Ning doesn't deal with it, he won't be vindictive in this matter. What Gan Ning was thinking about was that since he had already entered the army and got on Qin Xu's thief ship, he had to come up with something that he could get his hands on first, so as not to lose face too much. There is still a rule in the rivers and lakes, and you must show sincerity and ability to join the gang, not to mention that it is not difficult to hear from the words of the recruitment, so easily handing over more than ten ships and more than 1,000 sailors to his own hands, Qin Xu's gas is not small. Gan Ning is already a temperament to repay the peach, and now he has no intention of avoiding war in order to consider preserving his strength.

Qin Zhijun said. Let you wait for you to be dispatched by a certain one? Gan Ning looked at the clusters of firelight that were constantly approaching him upstream, which was emitted by the angry wind lantern on the bow of Huang Zu's warship, according to Gan Ning's experience. It has been calculated that Huang Zu's first ship has already sailed to a normal speed, and if nothing else, there is not enough time left for him. Seeing that the lead move around him was because he was looking forward to calculating the distance between the two armies, he actually closed his mouth in interest, just looked at Gan Ning's side, and waited for a conclusion. This surprised Gan Ning a little. Turning his head, he opened his mouth and said to the lead.

"Not bad! That's exactly what the lord said! Let me wait on the river and obey Your Excellency's command! But to be honest, I and my brothers really want to see Jinfan Ganning's ability! "It's not pretentious at all, talking about Qin Xu's military order. There is no sneer at Gan Ning just now, but there is still a bit of a peculiar smell at the end of the words.

"How many soldiers does our army have now? How many ships are there? Gan Ning can see it, and the trick is because he lost face in front of him, and he wants to get some cheap back verbally. Otherwise, you just need to accelerate. Not letting him Gan Ning have the slightest chance to perform is just a simple thing, and it makes people unable to say anything. As for the speculation that he wanted to frame himself, Gan Ning had no doubts at all, joking, counting on a landlubber, and he was a person who once jumped into the river in front of his eyes, and it was said that he lost half his life. Playing tricks with yourself on the river? Don't let Gan Ning look too highly at the trick. Therefore, seeing that at this time, he looked like he was listening to the envoy, and Gan Ning was no longer polite. Asked.

"Before leaving, the general of the left army division allocated 500 sailors of our army, 300 auxiliaries, 11 medium-sized warships, and 5 ships to come together...... Ahem, the one hundred and three brothers you 'invited' to go, a total of one thousand and four people. "It can be seen that a lot of effort was put into it before the recruitment, and the data came as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Well, plus the more than 700 people in a certain department, there are less than 2,000. And from Brother Su...... According to the news that General Su received, the soldiers brought by Huang Zu this time were more than 2,000 elites! I don't know how many supplies such as arrows and straw mats are left on our ship? Gan Ning frowned and asked.

Although the "......" lead move really doesn't understand water warfare, he also probably knows some necessary factors for water warfare from Gan Ning's words, thought for a moment, and said: "When the general of the left army division said that these ships were handed over to our battalion, he did not give any explanation, and they came in a hurry, so the specific number is not very clear, but when he was patrolling the ship before, he saw the cabin where these military assets were reserved, and there were plenty of arrows, and on these eleven warships, each ship should have no less than 2,000 arrows on standby!" Zhao Ning pondered for a while, gave Gan Ning a number, and continued: "However, the two hundred brothers brought by a certain this time have two bases attached to the crossbow in their hands, and there are two thousand arrows. ”

"Too little! And the crossbow bolt is too slow to reload, and it is not very useful on the river! It seems that this time it will take a lot of work. Gan Ning didn't seem to know much about the killing weapons that resounded in the north, and when he saw that the crossbow was only an arm's length, he didn't care about it in his eyes, so that he only felt that his pride was shown to the blind man.

Seeing that the lead move seemed to be about to say something that he didn't like to hear, although he had suffered a "big loss" in the water war, he still had some appreciation for the fact that he was still not afraid of the battle, Gan Ning still resisted the words of the lead move, and said with a solemn face: "Don't think that the deputy commander is deliberately making things difficult." This war on the river is different from that on land, compared with personal bravery, the sophistication of the sword, the effect and lethality of the arrows are the greatest guarantee. If the degree of attention is not enough, then on the river can only be used as a live target for the opponent, even if it has the advantage, unless the final battle is connected, it is difficult to predict the outcome of the battle. It's just that Huang Zu's combat strength is almost twice that of us, and our arrows are only 2,000 per ship, which can only support one projectile......"

"Aren't there twenty thousand ships out of ten? Belch...... So what do you say to do? Draw blurted out. But as soon as I finished speaking, I knew that my words were a little taken for granted. Indeed, eleven ships had 22,000 arrows in storage, which at first glance sounded like they could support a skirmish. But the problem is that now this is on a large river, and it is impossible for these ships to cross their hulls on the river and concentrate their "firepower" to meet the enemy. Even if you have never been exposed to water warfare, you can think of it, and if this is the case, it will be no different from sending you to death. As long as Liu Biao's army lasted no more than a few miles, and the time was only covered by arrows in less than a quarter of an hour, if he cut it off, it would be enough to wrap himself and others with dumplings by virtue of the advantage in numbers and the sharpness of the warship.

"What to do? Well, I don't know how much of the combat power of these soldiers under the command of the deputy commander can be left if they fight on the side? Gan Ning glanced at the soldiers who were standing behind the recruit, their faces were a little pale, and they were obviously enduring the discomfort, and asked.

"Yes, of course...... Cough...... What do you mean? "I actually want Gan Ning, the "head of the water thief", to see the demeanor of the first dead soldier who once defeated the world's elite soldier Bai Ma Yicong. It's just that I understand that the soldiers of the Jiankang Navy sent by Guo Jia are okay, at least most of them are from Jiangdong, they grew up near the water since they were children, and they won't get seasick. And his 300 soldiers who have been on board the ship since they got on the ship, have been seasick to varying degrees by the dark wind and high waves of this month, although until now, they have maintained a good "military appearance" in front of friendly troops and Jinfan thieves, but it can only be said that they are holding on. In this state, not to mention facing Liu Biao's water army, who is experienced in water warfare, is fighting on the side, and being able to maintain the accuracy of the crossbow first in the distance is actually very good. Therefore, although Gan Ning doesn't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, anyway, it is easy to say and not very good-sounding words will come out, and the trick is really "forced" by the truth and has no temper.

"Huh! Not much fun! Don't worry about the deputy commander! There is still time, please lead the deputy commander to communicate on your behalf and gather the arrows on the nearby ships on a few small boats of Gan, and watch us and other Jinfan people present a small gift to Qin Envoy Jun this time! Gan Ning didn't understand the meaning of the words, but the corners of his mouth were hooked, but he couldn't hide the ridicule, and pretended to be affectionate and hugged the shoulder of the pull, and said with a smile: "By the way, I still have to bother the deputy commander to bother to sweep the battle for us, rest assured, if you have military merits this time, a certain family will share half of you!" It's also a misunderstanding of the previous one, and I can't compensate you! ”

"You...... This...... Thief boss! Lao Tzu doesn't need you to share the credit! Who wouldn't be able to play tricks, if you have the ability to play it, you will be shown to the uncle! "I know that Gan Ning is definitely deliberate. Because Gan Ning's hand was on his hands, he used the way of patting and pinching to express his boldness and "closeness", which was exactly where Gan Ning was hurt by the last "misunderstanding". He subconsciously grinned and gasped, but he couldn't let the people around him see that he had suffered a "secret loss", so he could only snort and hold on. Although he knew that what Gan Ning said was the truth, the first battalion that dominated the land battle was really a weakness in the water battle, even if he added these Jiangdong naval troops newly recruited by Guo Jia, compared with the Jinfan thieves under Gan Ning who had been begging for a living on the river, it was indeed more than a step weaker. The trick is very clear in his heart, but it is also difficult to lose the battle, and he gritted his teeth and said.

"Deputy Commander, at the current speed, Huang Zu's navy is afraid that in less than half an hour, it will be within the range of our ships......" Gan Ning only chuckled at the complaint of the draw, and kindly reminded the still indignant move. Then he looked at the back of the figure who had been looking for his "trouble", although his face was unswerving, but he still quickly went to transfer the back of the military according to his instructions. Gan Ning, who was forced to take refuge in this matter because of Guo Jia and Qin Xu's calculations, suddenly felt a little in his heart that his current choice was actually not so bad.
