Chapter 671, 7th Order Newcomer
What is a Time of Crisis? Different people have different answers.
But in the chaotic battlefield, the soldiers who have lost contact and command are definitely in a moment of crisis.
After all, there is a difference between water warfare and land warfare, infantry troops can form dense formations, but battleships cannot, and there must be enough safety distance between ships, otherwise they will have a water accident before they encounter the enemy.
Thousands of warships of all sizes traversed the entire lake, covering more than ten miles. Suddenly, the fog was enveloped, and the command was lost, which inevitably caused chaos. Especially the issuance of the last military order, let them know that in the next time, they can only rely on themselves.
Before long, screams came from the fog, and occasionally there was a loud noise of ships colliding. This is a signal of what happened to both sides, but as the main generals, Zhou Yu and Huang Zu can't do anything. It's not that they don't work hard, it's just that the fog is too big, and no matter how hard they try, they can't dispel it.
As one of the powerful princes, even if Jiangxia rebuilt the naval army, there are many 7th-order generals, at least the commander of every building ship. In comparison, Liu Feng is much inferior in terms of generals, although he has cultivated a group of 7th-order generals with the two major buildings, he can't configure every building ship, more small building ships, and only 6th-order generals command. The Jiangdong Navy's overall combat effectiveness is the result of Zhou Yu's long-term training.
It is more difficult for the generals trained by special buildings to advance in the future, so many potential generals have not been let in by Liu Feng, and for many years, they have been at the peak of the 6th order. This is a problem that Liu Feng has always been more annoyed by, the generals under his command, as long as they are less than the 7th order, it is too difficult to advance.
But fortunately, compared to those nameless 7th-order generals, these people are not far behind. But there are not many such people in the water army.
The fog is thick, it is impossible to understand the specific situation, the other side does not know, every time a warship collides, you must first ask who the other party is, once it is hostile, it is to start a war.
……
There are thousands of warships on both sides, and the building ships are a few, and there are more, or the boats, ships, and fighting ships, and it is not so easy for these many warships and building ships to meet.
In the fog, the slings and bows almost lost their effect, and they could only be killed head-on on boarding.
Xu Changjie stood at the bow of the ship, and there were still traces of blood on his armor.
As a person who came out of the original Yizhou, one of the so-called "Three Heroes of Yizhou", Liu Feng trusted him, and he has been serving in the Navy all along. He didn't have a prominent family background, he didn't have the blessings of his ancestors, and his growth to the current peak of the 6th Order was all the result of his own efforts.
From the beginning of the weak navy, from the original commander of the navy Wang Yu, to Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, and now Zhou Yu, Xu Changjie has witnessed the growth of the navy all the way, and he admires Zhou Yu, the governor of the navy. It can be said that it was not until the navy was in the hands of Zhou Yu that the Jiangdong navy had the courage to face the Jingzhou navy.
As a lieutenant general in the navy, sitting on a medium-sized building ship and in charge of a small fleet, Xu Changjie is one of the core layers of the navy, and he is very clear about Zhou Yu's plan. The original plan has reached the key, as long as it is a moment later, under the stone throwing commanded by Liu Ye and Zhou Yu's rocket attack, at least two percent of the combat effectiveness of the Jiangxia Navy can be reached.
It's a pity that God is not beautiful, and the success falls short.
When the fog rose suddenly, he had only time to discern the last command from the flagship, so he had to slow down and move forward from memory.
The boat was difficult, because there was no direction, and it had knocked over several of its own boats, avoided for a long time, and finally encountered an enemy shipwreck.
The ship approached, hooked the enemy ship, and soon a soldier was transferred to fight. Compared to a medium-sized ship that could carry 5,000 people, the stern with only 200 people was too weak and was taken down in an instant.
may have accidentally entered the enemy's formation, and after that, the battleship commanded by Xu Changjie kept encountering the enemy, including a boat that was directly overturned by the waves, a shipwreck, and even a small building ship, which had just met one.
The combat effectiveness of the small building ship is not comparable to other small warships, and the untouchable collision has already damaged Xu Changjie's battleship. When seizing the small building ship, another fighting ship and a stern of the Jiangxia Navy arrived, so Xu Changjie had to take action to end the war as soon as possible. But even so, when the battle was over, after counting, his battleship had less than half of the people who could fight, and it could be described as a heavy loss.
Fighting in such weather, capture is not to think about it. The fighting ships and building ships were all scuttled so as not to obstruct the ship's movement, and the side of the boat was abandoned, and all those who surrendered were forced into the water, and it is still unknown whether they could survive.
It's not that he's ruthless, it's just that in this case, he can only do this, and he must first ensure his own safety. He was sure that there would be someone better than him.
Encountering enemies in a row, Xu Changjie had to change direction, the fog had not cleared, and he didn't know how long it would last, he hadn't encountered his own warship for a long time, and wanted to withdraw from the battlefield to rest first.
However, once a person is unlucky, he will stuff his teeth when he drinks cold water.
In just half an hour, the aftermath of the last war had not yet dissipated, and Xu Changjie encountered the enemy again.
This time it was a medium-sized building ship.
There was no need for Xu Changjie to consider whether to fight or not, when it was confirmed that it was too hostile, a large number of hook locks were thrown over, binding the battleship together.
There is no choice but to fight.
A medium-sized building ship in peak condition. As soon as the battle was engaged, Xu Changjie had a judgment in his heart, this was a tough battle.
As the main enemy, Xu Changjie of course knew the distribution of the strength of the Jiangxia naval army, the medium-sized building ship, and the commander was definitely a 7th-order general, coupled with a complete army, even if he was full of confidence in the naval army trained by his own governor, he was not sure about this battle.
"Only death!" The thought welled up in his heart, and he roared and summoned his men to kill the enemy who poured onto the ship.
……
When Liu Feng received the fog from Zhangdu Lake, it was already an hour later. After all, no one knew that this sudden fog would be so big and last so long. Therefore, although some people in Jiangxi were staring at the naval battlefield, Liu Feng still learned the news an hour later.
But even if he knew, he had no choice but to wait for news. Even in order to calm the boredom in his heart, he ordered to intensify the attack on Xiling City.
The loss is already too much, and every time I think about it, I can't stop my heartache.
Until the afternoon, the fog still did not disperse, and under Liu Feng's calm expression, he couldn't help but have mixed thoughts.
What the hell happened in the fog?
Until a sudden system prompt alerted him.
"Dingdong: The system prompts that Xu Changjie, a military general under your command, has successfully advanced to a 7th-order military general through long-term efforts."
