Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 64 Li Hongzhang Garrisoned Ruxu

The general of Xiang'an surrendered, and the city of Xiang'an was captured without firing an arrow.Zhang Yi sat in Xiang'an and began to prepare to defend the counterattack from the south of the river.

The most important thing to defend against the counterattack in Jiangshui South is the navy.

After Li Hongzhang received Zhang Yi's order, he immediately commanded the navy and came to Ruxukou along the river.Ruxukou is the place where Chaohu Lake flows into the river, and it is a strategic location.As long as he owns this place, Zhang Yi's navy can advance and retreat freely and remain invincible.

After Li Hongzhang arrived at Ruxukou, he felt that this place was very important, so he left Li Jun to build a water village to prevent Jiangdong navy.

When Li Hongzhang came to Xiang'an, he met Zhang Yi and said, "My lord, now our navy has to enter the river, but the river is more turbulent than Chaohu Lake. It will take a while for the navy to form combat power."

Zhang Yi asked thoughtfully, "Then what do you think?"

Li Hongzhang said: "I intend to set up a water village at Ruxukou and send heavy troops to guard it. Once the Jiangdong navy comes to attack, the navy will suspend training and return to Ruxukou to rely on the water village for defense."

The more Zhang Yi listened, the more he frowned. How does this feel like the Beiyang Navy's way of sticking to the port?Although the current warships are small, the only way to attack is to board the ship except for bows and arrows.However, the role of the navy is still used for offense, and it is not a good way to abandon the advantages of the navy.

"You're still too conservative." Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "As far as I know, our warships are much larger than those of the Jiangdong navy. Although Huainan's boat handling is worse than that of Jiangdong, water warfare is nothing more than Those methods, preventing the enemy from boarding the ship and guarding against the enemy's fire attack, can basically be invincible after these are done well."

Li Hongzhang knew that Zhang Yi was dissatisfied with his conservativeness, so he said: "The main reason is that there are no good generals in water warfare. Although Li Jun and Zhang Shun are good in water, their commanding skills are not high. I am afraid that they will not be opponents of Jiangdong Titans."

When Zhang Yi heard it, it was true.Li Jun and Zhang Shun were originally traders of fishing and selling fish, so their own skills might not be bad, but their ability to lead soldiers is really not that good, otherwise most of Liangshan's gang would not have died.

Zhang Yi thought for a while, and then said to Li Hongzhang: "In this way, the navy will be stationed at Ruxukou first, and Li Jun and Zhang Shun will each take a few large boats to cruise the river. Well, we just need to ensure that Jiangdong does not send troops across the river, and we don’t need to eliminate Jiangdong’s water army.”

Only then did Li Hongzhang heave a sigh of relief. He now knows that the navy was not built overnight.When he asked Zhang Yi for the water army, besides wanting to control the water army deep down in his heart, he also had the idea of ​​fighting with Zhou Yu.

Li Hongzhang and Zhou Yu both lived in the area around Chaohu Lake, and their ages were not much different. Even though Li Hongzhang was implanted in this world, he still had childhood memories.Zhou Yu has been a well-known figure since he was a child, and he is No.1 around Chaohu Lake.It's impossible to say that Li Hongzhang didn't have the idea of ​​fighting with Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu can lead the army, and so can I, Li Hongzhang.And I also want to fight with you to see if you are stronger than me.

It's just that after Li Hongzhang took charge of the navy, he found that his abilities were insufficient. On the contrary, Juchao and Liyang were managed in an orderly manner by him. Li Jun and Zhang Shunlai did all the work.

If these two people were called Shui Xing, perhaps no one could compare to them.But when it comes to training sailors, they are simply not up to the task.

The result is that the soldiers they call out have strong personal combat power, but poor discipline, but they are not very good at using bows and crossbows.

Li Hongzhang went to Ruxukou, and Zhang Yi always felt a little uneasy.Let someone send a letter to Di Qing, so that he can attack other counties in Lujiang, and send Wei Wentong out to threaten Shu County from the east.

He himself took Fan Lihua to Ruxukou by land, and Xiang'an was handed over to the newly summoned Lin Fengxiang to defend.

Fortunately, Lin Fengxiang's implanted status was high enough that he was also a school lieutenant.But how did Zhang Yi remember that the system didn't seem to mention Lin Fengxiang's identity?Was it too busy and forgot?
Zhang Yi took Fan Lihua on the road while enjoying the scenery on the road.Good times, beautiful scenery, and the company of beautiful people should be considered one of the most beautiful things in the world, right?

Although Zhang Yi didn't know how to pick up girls, relying on his knowledge far beyond that of the ancients, and his anecdotes and anecdotes, he still made Fan Lihua radiant.

According to this progress, Zhang Yi felt that he should be able to win Fan Lihua soon.

Fan Lihua also admires Zhang Yi. All beautiful women love heroes. Although Fan Lihua is a tigress, she also needs to find a male tiger, right?

The two of them talked and laughed all the way, saying that the soldiers under him were abusive enough. If this group of people hadn't hoped that Zhang Yi would find a woman soon, they might have mutinied and asked you to abuse single dogs?
When he came to Ruxukou, Zhang Yi met Li Jun and Zhang Shun for the first time, both of whom were handsome.But Li Jun's skin is bronze, Zhang Shun's is white, and very white, even whiter than Fan Lihua.

"This person can't be a woman?" Fan Lihua said a little jealously.

"Male!" Zhang Yi also sighed, there are so many wonders in this world!After sighing, Zhang Yi felt wrong again. Zhang Shun was a hypothetical character, and it was normal to be different from ordinary people. It was like Wei Wentong, who was very close to the artistic image of Guan Yu. Putting him with Guan Yu, his face was redder than Guan Yu's.

The three of Li Hongzhang accompanied Zhang Yi to inspect the water fortress being built, and boarded the boat to see the structure above.After a while, Zhang Yi couldn't stand it anymore.

The hometown of his body is in Wuwei, which is now the area around Gansu, inland.No problem getting him on horseback, but on board!forget it!Zhang Yi is already very good without vomiting.

On the contrary, Fan Lihua adapted very well, without any discomfort at all.No wonder, she is Fan Neng's younger sister, a girl from the south of the Yangtze River, so she should take a lot of boats.

However, Zhang Yi never thought of letting Fan Lihua stay in Ruxukou, but let Li Hongzhang continue to be stationed, and handed over the political affairs of Linhu and Xiang'an to him.

Li Hongzhang's political ability is much higher than his military ability, and his military ability is more strategic and logistical.

Zhang Yi has already started looking for candidates to get a new navy commander. I don't know what can summon Zheng Chenggong!
In other words, there are really few naval generals in ancient China!This may have something to do with not paying attention to the navy!
It seems that the vast land and rich resources also have shortcomings. All eyes are on the land, and the sea is ignored.

After Zhang Yi returned to Xiang'an, he wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to Jingzhou to see if he could find Gan Ning and ask him to join him.

If Gan Ning can be obtained, the navy will have at least one general.
