The God of War in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 306 Training the Navy
Liu Minghui and the others were also present, and they were inexplicably disappointed when they heard the imperial decree.

But there is no doubt that Lingdi was right.Zang Yu is indeed rebelling, and they are also involved in it.If it wasn't for Chen Ran's reticence, they would have died miserably.

Liu Minghui and the others were just thinking about it in their hearts, so naturally they didn't dare to act recklessly.Thinking about it carefully, Zang Yu's early death also had some advantages.

At least they don't have to go to die together.Now they are still alive, but Zang Yu has already died in Ji's hands.

……

It took half a month to reorganize the army and arrange all parties.

According to Jia Xu's suggestion, Chen Ran began to test the reactions of various counties.Chen Ran spread the will of Emperor Ling, and sent people to various counties to send news.

Chen Ran announced that the prefect of each county, he is the Yangzhou shepherd sent by the imperial court, in charge of Yangzhou's military and political affairs, it depends on how all parties react.

It was not beyond Chen Ran's expectations. The reactions of all the counties were normal. At the very least, there was no open opposition. For Chen Ran, the new master of Yangzhou, they all expressed their support verbally.

Xiang Kuaiji County and Yuzhang County naturally also have sheriffs sent by the imperial court, but the problem is that although there are sheriffs, they don't work at all.

The local rebel forces are too strong, and the imperial court's orders are useless at all.Even if these county guards show their favor, it is actually useless

But in this way, Chen Ran's goal can be considered achieved.At the same time, Chen Ran also sent people to the counties to send news, ordering the prefects of the counties to discuss matters in Shouchun.

As the chief official appointed by Emperor Ling, Chen Ran is qualified to do so, and Chen Ran knows the meaning of Emperor Ling's sending him here, not just to manage Yangzhou well.

……

During this time, Chen Ran has been recuperating and training soldiers.As for the government affairs, Chen Ran followed Jia Xu's opinion, which was roughly the same as before, and there were not many changes.

Now that the situation is not stable, it is not the time for Chen Ran to reform and enrich the people and strengthen the army.When Yangzhou stabilizes and Chen Ran does things, it will be the real order and prohibition.

The so-called political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. There are old guns, but it will take a while for power to emerge.

"Han Sheng, how is the situation in Chaohu Lake?" Huang Zhong asked in front of Chen Ranxiang in the governor's mansion.

Huang Zhong arched his hands and said: "The person sent to investigate sent back the news. During this time, Zheng Bao and other thieves have calmed down a lot. They are always afraid of us and dare not act rashly."

Chen Ran nodded thoughtfully. In Yangzhou, the only places that can be regarded as peaceful are Jiujiang County and other places.However, there are still some troubles in Jiujiang County, and Chaohu Zheng Bao is a big problem.

Because there is no water army, Chen Ran has no way to conquer this group of water thieves now.And Zang Yu, a weak chicken, has some sailors under his command, but he is also very weak.

If Zang Yu had a powerful naval force, how could he have sent such big killers as Lou Chuan out.In fact, Zang Yu only had two buildings in his hands.At this moment, everything is under Chen Ran's control.

So in a short time, Chen Ran had nothing to do with Zheng Bao.Now that Zheng Bao can settle down a bit, it is naturally the best.

Chen Ran said: "Send people to keep an eye on Chaohu. Zheng Bao has tens of thousands of thieves, most of them are fierce and elite people, and they are bordering Jiujiang County, so we must guard against them!"

Huang Zhong cupped his hands and said, "Your subordinate obeys!"

Chen Ran helped his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that training the navy is also on the agenda, not to mention training a strong army, at least it will be able to fight in a water battle!"

Huang Zhong was silent and speechless, he was not good at water warfare either.

Chen Ran thought for a while, and said, "Yuan Fu performed well in the last Huai Shui battle. From my point of view, it's better to let Yuan Fu train the water army!"

Huang Zhong pondered slightly, then replied: "My subordinates also found that Yuan Fu is quite good at water, which can be used."

"Well, it's decided like this, Han Sheng, how is your army training going?" Chen Ran asked.

Huang Zhong replied: "Although it is not as good as killing the elite of the Shenshen army, it is already possible to enforce orders and prohibit them."

"Well, let's first draw five thousand soldiers who are good at water, and order Yuan Fu to train the water army. If there are not enough ships, let the craftsmen supervise the construction." Chen Ran ordered.

It is impossible for Yangzhou water town to have shipbuilders, but no matter how skilled craftsmen are today, it is impossible to make warships that satisfy Chen Ran, but now, Chen Ran can only make do with it.

For the current situation of the navy, Chen Ran is also not easy to start. Chen Ran frowned and thought about it, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he thought of something.

He summoned his personal guards and wrote a letter for his personal guards to send to Lingling County, Jingzhou.Ask the prefect of Lingling for one person.

In Chen Ran's memory, in Lingling, Jingzhou, there were a large number of talented sailors.It is the well-known Zhou Yu playing Huang Gai in Huang Gai.

This Huang Gai was from Lingling, Jingzhou, and he was a minor official in Lingling when he was young.Later, he followed Sun Jian, fought south and north, and became a great veteran of Soochow.

I think Huang Gai joined Sun Jian during this period when Sun Jian was the prefect of Changsha.However, Chen Ran is not sure about the exact time, but Chen Ran feels that he should at least try it.

If Huang Gai can really be dug over by the diggers, then it feels good.As for Han Dang and other generals, they didn't know Zhou Jinren's family name, and Chen Ran didn't know where they were, so it would be troublesome even if they wanted to poach them.

As for Gan Ning, Zhou Yu, etc., they are too young, even if Chen Ran finds them, it will be useless, on the contrary, it will disrupt their growth trajectory, and maybe a genius will become a mediocre one.

After writing the letter, Chen Ran let out a foul breath.When the situation in Yangzhou settles down, he must find a way to get the armament up.The weapons are advanced enough, and the combat effectiveness will naturally become stronger.

Now that I think about it carefully, although his team has expanded to nearly 4 people, the army that can be used is the Killing God Army.

Ordinary soldiers, compared with the elite divisions in the northern part of the Han Dynasty, are not a star and a half behind.Training has to keep up, and preparation has to go beyond.

After sorting out the thoughts in his mind, Chen Ran shook his head lightly, walked out of the hall, and came to the courtyard.

The envoys he sent to the various counties have already rushed back one after another, presumably those prefects who want to come are also on their way, and maybe they will arrive one after another.

Chen Ran didn't mean to tear up his face, as long as they knew the general idea, Chen Ran wasn't going to make a fuss out of a molehill.If there is a war in Yangzhou, it will hurt Yangzhou too much.

But there is still one very important thing, Chen Ran needs to understand their attitude.If you sincerely surrender, you can use it naturally.If they have other plans, they will suffer a lot after Chen Ran rests and recuperates.
