Chapter 837 The Magical Clairvoyance
In fact, the Han Dynasty had a navy, and the main battleships were building ships.

In the Western Han Dynasty, building ships had been produced in large quantities. In Liu Xi's compilation and annotation "Shi Ming, Shi Bing", "the first floor of the building ship is called Lu, the second floor is called Feilu, and the third floor is called Que Room." Du You's "Tong Dian" "The building ship, Three layers of buildings are built on the ship, female walls are lined up, battle grids, banners are set up, spear holes are opened for driving windows, throwing carts, stones, and iron buckets are placed, and the shape is like a fortress." Basically, the structure of this kind of ship is generally divided into two types: Three floors, but there are also as many as five and ten floors. Due to the huge hull, the height is more than 10 feet, and it is one of the main types of ships for naval warfare.During Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Gongsun Shu built a 10-story building boat when he gathered troops to accumulate food and rebelled against Shu.

A large ship equipped with trebuchets, crossbows, and auxiliary boats can accommodate hundreds of people.

The person in charge of commanding the fleet is called the General Lou Chuan.

There are garrisons in Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou, which are directly under the command of the imperial court.Later, when Dong Zhuo was in chaos, these water troops ran out of food, and became the private property of the princes from all over the country.

The last Lou Chuan general was called Gu Yue, and now he has defected to Yuan Shao and became Yuan Shao's subordinate. This time, he was ordered to lead the fleet to attack Jizhou's defense.

Gu Yue has lived in Qingzhou for a long time, and has a good understanding of the terrain around the Bohai Sea. She knows that Zhang He only has [-] cavalry in his hands, so she plans to come for a walk with the dog and exhaust the team to death.

"Report! General, the cavalry on the shore have stopped!"

The men in charge of spying on the intelligence walked into the command ship.

stopped?

Gu Yue smiled slightly.

Finally can't hold it anymore?

This is also inevitable.

When marching on water, a person travels on a boat with the help of water and wind, and will not get tired even for a month or two, but marching on the road can only borrow human and animal power, which will eventually be exhausted.

It is commendable that the general on the shore lasted for four or five days.

"General, should we find a suitable place to land?"

Not in a hurry!
Gu Yue waved her hand.

His eyes fell on the map.

The Bohai Sea Circle is very large, and although there are several ferries around, they will also become the target of the other party's close attention. Even if they drive across, it is difficult to land.

Although they have 5 people, most of them are naval forces, and they are no match for ordinary infantry in land combat, let alone the opponent has [-] cavalry.

There are two ways in front of Gu Yue, one is to find a place to land on the coast, and then gather troops to attack behind the Jizhou defense line.

The advantage of this is that the army can be flexible and attack any target at will.The disadvantage is that without the support of the fleet, replenishment is a very serious problem.

The other is to go retrograde along the mouth of the Yellow River and drive into the hinterland of Zhangwu County. The waterways advance side by side, so that they can take care of each other and ensure the safety of supplies for the landing troops. The disadvantage is that they must advance along the river, and the landing troops cannot leave the river bank.

As the general of the navy, Gu Yue naturally preferred the second method.

Taking warships as the basis, proceed step by step, even if the attack fails, there is still a way out.

After all, Jizhou has no ships, so there is nothing to do with them.

Thinking of this, Gu Yue hastily ordered.

"Pass my order, advance at full speed, enter from the mouth of the Yellow River, advance along the river, attack the surrounding counties and counties along the way, disrupt the defense of Jizhou, and cooperate with General Yuan's strategy."

promise!
Everyone responded in unison!

……

Seeing hundreds of ships sailing northward, two figures appeared on the shore not far away, they were Zhang He and Zhao Dahammer.

The two held a strange cylinder in their hands. There were two lenses at one end of the cylinder, which could be stretched and stretched. Through this strange cylinder, they could see the situation three to five miles away.

Because of this, they don't have to chase Qingzhou's ships all the time, they just need to follow them far behind, saving a lot of energy.

"My lord really has the ability to penetrate the heavens and penetrate the earth. How did he create such a miraculous thing?"

Zhang He held this thing fondly and studied it over and over again.

This is clairvoyance!
Zhao Dachui said proudly.

It turned out that Guo Jia bought several high-purity crystals at a high price, then hired skilled craftsmen to polish them for dozens of days, and then supplemented them with bronze materials to make an original telescope.

Although it is not as accurate as later generations, it is still very advanced in this era.

clairvoyance?
Zhang He couldn't help but nodded.

Although they may not be able to see the situation thousands of miles away, it is also very surprising to them.

"By the way, this clairvoyance is a special treasure for the gods, and it is a blessing for ordinary people to look at it. When my lord was Donghua's god in the previous life..."

Zhao Dachui's saliva was flying, and he began to brag.

This guy has never changed his habit of pretending to be bragging.

alright, alright!

Zhang He shook his head helplessly.

In order to expand the prestige of Yunzhou, Guo Jia deliberately packaged Zhao Dahammer and made him a man of the hour in Yunzhou.

Zhao Dahammer lived up to expectations, and became stronger and stronger in the business of pretending to be coercive, becoming a veritable king of coercion.

It's just that Yunzhou's strength is getting stronger and stronger now, and there is no need to pretend to be a foil to himself, so Zhao Dahammer has not come in handy these years.

How could he miss the opportunity to show off?

But he didn't choose a good target to pretend to be.

As for the details of Zhao Dachui, how could Zhang Yun, the elder of Yunzhou, not know?

It would be good not to expose you, and you rubbed your nose on your face.

Although Zhao Dahammer was pretending to be aggressive, but this clairvoyance was indeed very useful, and Zhang Xi was a little bit reluctant.

With this thing, it will be much easier to observe the enemy's situation in the future. Find a high ground and look at it, and you can know the enemy's situation within three or four miles.

"Sledgehammer, let's discuss something!"

Zhang He said mysteriously.

what's up?

Zhao Dahammer was a little annoyed that Zhang He's career of pretending to be aggressive was interrupted.

Zhang He coughed and said, "Look, brother is working very hard outside, chasing the boat and observing the situation. Can you lend me this thing first!"

As soon as the words were finished, Zhao Dachui pulled the clairvoyant back.

I don't think about it!

Zhao Dachui snorted, and said: "This is a treasure of the fairy family. How can you, an ordinary person, have it? Besides, it is very scarce. There are only two in Yunzhou now. In order to cooperate with this operation, the lord let me take it with you." Get one. You also know that our artillery needs this clairvoyance more than you."

Good steel should be used on the blade.

After making two clairvoyance, Guo Jia kept one for himself, and the other was given priority to the artillery.

With this clairvoyance, the artillery command is like a tiger with wings added.

So this is ah!

Zhang He was a little disappointed, but he still expressed his understanding.

They lost their clairvoyance, so at best they worked harder.

If the artillery has no clairvoyance, its power will naturally be greatly reduced.

but……

Zhao Dachui changed the subject, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, the lord said, this thing can be mass-produced in the future, and each commander will have one."

Very good!
Hearing this, Zhang Yun felt relieved.

With this thing, who in the world is still the opponent of the Yunzhou Army.
