Because they were building a big killing weapon for their giant ships, and at the same time, those small warships had to adapt to the cooperation with the giant ships, so the Red Turban Army temporarily stopped moving.

As for Yan Ling, the main time is to follow Li Shanchang to get familiar with government affairs. I have to say that Li Shanchang is a very good teacher, he is gentle, patient and mature and steady, he can always see through the key at a glance, he is simply a natural seedling of government affairs, and Yan Ling has also learned a lot under his hands.

But after all, he has just defected, and it is impossible for him to immediately take over the power of the territory under the jurisdiction of the rebel army, so he is only familiar with it, and he still has more free time.

So Yan Ling simply wandered around the barracks of the righteous army.

He also made friends with many people because of this, such as the famous Xu Da, who has a resolute face, is very tall, and has good martial arts, but his speech is like a spring breeze; For example, Chang Yuchun, perhaps because of his background as a bandit, he is rough and heroic, but fortunately, the city government is also not very deep; Even a few people from the Chaohu Water Army, who were quite hostile before, he also made friends.

The Chaohu Water Army may not be well-known among the people, but at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was an important member of the dynasty. Although Yan Ling's three giant ships have somewhat compared their contributions, but now is the early stage of entrepreneurship, and the credit is still there, Yan Ling also showed that he will not exist as a general for a long time in the future, and several people are also bold men, and a few glasses of wine are also very popular.

The most impressive thing is that the two little guys who always pestered Xu Da to talk about the art of war, although they were young, they had to pretend to be mature, they were Zhu Yuanzhang's righteous sons.

Zhu Wenzhong, Zhu Ying.

Looking at these two immature faces, Yan Ling suddenly felt a sense of cultivation.

They are the future of the Ming Dynasty.

-----------------

December.

A group of people suddenly gathered at the gate of the camp, and when they looked carefully, Xu Da and the others were among them, and the leader turned out to be the marshal of their righteous army.

The person opposite was wearing the official uniform of the Yuan Dynasty, and looking at the appearance of the righteous army, it seemed that he was ...... Send?

"Who is that person?" Yan Ling became curious, Zhu Yuanzhang was actually quite broad-minded in his early years, and many generals of the Yuan Dynasty were pardoned by him and not killed, but he was not a cat or a dog, and there were not many people who could make him love talents, he dragged a guard passing by and asked.

"Naha."

Yan Ling glanced at the man deeply and kept his appearance in his heart.

As if sensing something, Naha turned his face back and met him.

-----------------

The days of leisure did not last long, the Red Turbans were building weapons, repurging their armaments, adapting to new tactics, and their enemies were not idle.

"Staff, staff." When Zhu Yuanzhang's guards came to the door, he was checking the logistics volume of the Red Turban Army, and he had gradually begun to assist Li Shanchang in handling some affairs these days, and when he heard someone calling him, Yan Ling raised his head.

"Marshal, please come over."

"What's the matter?"

"Staff officer, the barbarian son of Yuanzhong, The Hague, led the boat division into the quarry river, blocking the north and south, and wanted to attack the Taiping, the marshal held an emergency meeting, please hurry up."

"Whoa." The chair was carried back, and Yan Ling stood up violently.

"Is it finally time to fight?"

Jin Ge Iron Horse, there is no man who does not yearn for it.

It's finally time.

He walked out quickly and rushed to Zhu Yuanzhang's camp, and the generals also came to sit down at this time, and after a while, the entire camp was already full of people.

The huge map was spread out on the table, and the marshal was writing and drawing on it solemnly, turning his head from time to time to discuss something with Xu Da beside him.

No one is afraid, there is only excitement in everyone's hearts, is there finally a decisive battle with the Yuan army?

Since ancient times, fame can only be obtained immediately! This team is like the rising sun, with infinite expectations for the future, they are not afraid of battle, eager to show their bravery in this troubled era, and fight for a name for eternity!

At this time, the marshal finally had the idea of fighting and began his deployment.

"Xu Da! Ordered you to lead a partial division, so set up a suspicious formation and divide the enemy's troops! ”

"Spring is often encountered! You lead a dead army, and when the battle starts, you will go straight to the enemy's army, and you must divide the Yuan army! ”

"Soup and! ……”

……

"In the end, someone needs to sit on three giant ships to attack the Yuan army with sharp weapons in order to achieve the final victory!"

Because of the "big killer" on the giant ship, Zhu Yuanzhang had to regretfully retract his plan to use one of them as his own ship, but these three big ships are the killer weapons on the battlefield, and one person must command them.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes swept over the people present, and the generals who had not yet been named couldn't help but straighten up.

Everyone wants to command such a huge ship, not to mention the majesty, it is safe, and the credit will not be small. However, the task is also heavy, and the giant ship as the hole card must appear at the right time. If it's too early, the Yuan army will have a chance to retreat, and even more so late, if the sailors have been defeated, the three giant ships will only be devoured by wolves in the end.

However, all the main generals have gone on the expedition, and only a few partial generals remain.

Who could it be? All eyes were on them.

The eyes of the generals looked at each other, and the sound of "zizi" seemed to sound in the air, as if sparks were coming out. This matter is a monstrous achievement, and whoever can catch it will undoubtedly soar into the sky in the future, and they have no intention of backing down.

Even their direct boss had already spoken out and began to recommend his subordinates to Zhu Yuanzhang, and the camp was a little lively for a while.

Who will the marshal choose in the end?

Yan Ling and Li Shanchang sat together, and they were also quite interested in guessing. He didn't think he had this opportunity, after all, he was a newcomer, although Zhu Yuanzhang had also heard that he had led hundreds of clan soldiers to defeat thousands of rebellious soldiers, but at this time, there was no doubt that a general who knew the roots was more reliable.

"Yan Ling! You command three huge ships, and when the time is right, you can maneuver and hit the enemy's general directly, and you must succeed! ”

Yan Ling was stunned, obviously he didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang's choice would be himself.

He met Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, and his gaze was decisive and full of expectations.

"But marshal, I have never commanded such a war, I'm afraid it's a lack ......of ability," Yan Ling excused himself.

"You said that you have been to sea, and you are the only one in the army who has ever commanded such a ship. Although we still have a few generals here, none of them have any experience in water warfare, and fighting against the rebels and ambushing Chen Yexian have proved your talent. Zhu Yuanzhang said encouragingly:

"And Xu Da told us, you are good at learning war, the former champion Hou was seventeen years old as Bi Yao (Bi Yao Lieutenant), and in the first battle, he led eight hundred light cavalry to hundreds of miles to kill the first captive, why can't you?"

Yan Ling only felt that a fire had ignited in his heart.

"Yes!" In everyone's astonished gaze, he stood up and said loudly.
