In war, in fact, the top priority should be intelligence.

A well-armed and powerful army may stray into the enemy's ambush circle due to intelligence errors. In this world, some methods and their own combat effectiveness are related to weapons, such as fire attack, water attack, etc. of.

Under such circumstances, a beggar soldier can completely defeat an elite army. This is the result of intelligence asymmetry. In ancient battles, if there were no scouts, the entire army would be blind and deaf. Maybe at some point, they will be taken to a specific area by the enemy, waiting for the end of the entire army to be wiped out.

The sea is the most closed environment for the intelligence system. In such an environment, it is almost impossible to know what happened around. The sea is so wide and so monotonous. Will the ships sent out as scouts be able to get back to their original state? The teams are a big problem.

Therefore, it is best to take a fixed route for a large sea ship. Even if you send people out, as long as you are on this route, it is still very easy to find large troops. To the encounter, and it was a sudden encounter.

Therefore, naval battles are the battles that most test the commanding ability of the commander and the level of the ship.

The shipyard under Sun Quan's command naturally cannot compare with Liu Ming's shipbuilding technology. In this respect, they are already at a disadvantage. During the encounter, Sun Quan's ships were three or four levels lower than Liu Ming's ships. Considering the combat effectiveness of the sailors, not considering the commanding ability of the commander, only talking about the ability to shuttle and sail in the sea, Sun Quan's army is at a disadvantage.

This is also the reason why Huang Gai tried every means to fix Liu Mingjun's warships in the first place. If these warships really sailed, Huang Gai would not take any advantage.

It's just that Huang Gai still doesn't know that there is another army that participated in this battle. No matter how Sun Quan investigates, he probably won't know. Liu Ming placed a dock on the Wa Island, where he trained a A group of secret naval forces are waiting for the arrival of this war.

The intelligence error caused Huang Gai to be flanked from front to back; as far as the combat level of the ships is concerned, Liu Ming's navy has a foundation in ballistics, and has practiced for a long time. Every shell can almost hit the target. There is no way to cover this side, after all, they don't have good artillery and shells.

Even when it comes to the quality of the commanders of both sides, Gan Ning is still a general in the middle and late stages of Soochow Wu, while Huang Gai may be a famous general, but now he is old and no longer the peak of courage. Instead, he specializes in learning Qimen weapons. The chain around his waist usually seems to be an ornament, but it is actually one of his main weapons.

Therefore, Huang Gai was not only slightly lacking in strength and combat effectiveness, he only said that Gan Ning suddenly pulled out his chains to launch an attack, but he also took advantage of the word 'odd' and decisively captured Huang Gai.

The remaining ships, except for the main battle ships, are mostly troop carriers.

It can be seen that Soochow is determined to occupy Yizhou and Yazhou, but now, it has sent more than 2 laborers to Yizhou to build bridges and pave roads, dig mountains and mines, open up wasteland and farm, etc. With some manpower, if the war is over and Sun Quan perishes, maybe [-] obedient people can be directly added.

"Thank you general for your support, otherwise..." Dong Xin was really relieved at this moment, and thanked him gratefully.

"No need to talk nonsense, add supplies and ammunition to me immediately, by the way, prepare a meal for my sergeants by the way, we will set off after eating, Yazhou is still waiting for us," Gan Ning said I plan to talk nonsense with him and directly clarify what I need.

Dong Xin also knew that the matter was urgent, so he immediately prepared all the supplies Gan Ning needed, and even brought out the best meals for them.

"These tropical fruits are already ripe," Gan Ning asked while holding a mangosteen.

"It was transplanted before, and after our careful service, most of them survived. They were already old trees, so there is nothing surprising about the results this year," Dong Xin said with a smile.

"Well, prepare some for me, at least there is something to chew on on the way there." Gan Ning ate the mangosteen and thought it tasted pretty good.

The mangosteen these days is still a bit sour, and the pulp is not too much, but it doesn’t matter, it tastes good and is very appetizing. The most needed thing on the boat is appetizers. You must know that most of the food on the sea is very simple.

"By the way, this is the compressed dry food shipped from the mainland last month. It's packed in tin cans. It tastes good and is also resistant to hunger. If the general needs it, why don't you bring some," Dong Xin probably remembered. What, I took out a can of compressed dry food.

Gan Ning seemed to know about it, and nodded in response.

There was no nonsense after that, I just had a meal, and after confirming the supplies, I set off directly. The current military situation is tense, and he, a general, can't just idle around. If he wants to play, he has to win the battle before playing.

The fleet set sail and went south along the monsoon, but it only took a little more than a day to arrive at Yazhou.

At this moment, thick smoke was billowing in Yazhou, and even outside the port, it could be seen that Sun Quan's army had entered the port and was launching an attack on the inland.

"The fleet is taking cover outside the port, and the Marine Corps will prepare for me and go out with me," Gan Ning immediately issued an order.

The fleet immediately bombed the Eastern Wu soldiers and their ships in the port. No matter what the result was, the lifeboats loaded with marines one by one sailed towards the shore.

In about 10 minutes, these heroes braved the rockets from Sun Quan's side and landed smoothly.

They are a special existence in the navy, and their number is only more than 3000. Usually, they also serve as sailors, helping to deal with trivial matters on some ships, but when needed, they will be fully armed and wait for landing orders at any time.

They are the special forces in the navy, even if they go ashore, they are the elite of the elite.

"Bah bah..." A series of gunshots, but the marines began to snipe and kill Sun Quan's army on the shore. These rifled flintlock guns accurately sniped and killed Sun Quan's army one after another at a distance of 300 meters. , there is no one at all, it is necessary to waste a second bullet.

Not long after, the large forces had advanced to the Yazhou government.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the same as last time. The defenders here are guarding the city, while the opponent is attacking the city. Judging from the scene, the two sides have not actually been fighting for a long time, but this is good, anyway, there is no need to worry about being destroyed in the city It's too serious, after all, it still needs to be repaired afterwards.

"Throw grenades, change weapons," Gan Ning shouted.

Immediately, the soldiers threw out the only grenade at their waists, and at the same time replaced the Tang Dao on their backs.

With a burst of roar, the grenade they threw exploded among the enemy troops 100 meters away. At the same time, these soldiers turned into afterimages, but they came to the enemy army not long after. .

With the sword in hand, the kill is clean and neat. The most powerful thing is that the speed of the move is fast and accurate. It not only focuses on the vital point, but also is as fast as three or four swords wielding at the same time. Yes, this navy army The clan is also an ace army, a real ace army.

Fighting till dawn, under the first round of grenades, only a few thousand people from Sun Quan's army fled Yazhou by boat, and the rest were either captured or killed.

An invasion war against Yazhou and Yizhou was put down by Gan Ning with lightning speed.

However, he was not without things to do, but after completing this task, he led his troops to replenish supplies in Yazhou, and then headed towards Wu County to kill.

Yes, Liu Mingjun will never be beaten passively. Since he has come here to fight once, he should naturally reciprocate and fight back once. But this time, Gan Ning did not intend to lose.
