Can I get to the other side?

After accepting the task of training navy officers, Zhou Yu did not delay at all and got into work after only one day of rest.

Although he has not yet fully cultivated his body, as Zhuge Liang reminded him, the task of training the navy is heavy and he needs to seize the time.

Building a navy is not about recruiting new soldiers to form a navy. Doing so would be too time-consuming and there would be a lack of warships.

Zhou Yu's plan was to make the army's sergeants adapt to water warfare. It would be enough if they could avoid seasickness and be familiar with the basic methods of water warfare.

This was the first time Zhou Yu entered the military camp of the imperial army.

The military camp was neat and clean, without any of the messy and smelly feeling of ordinary military camps. Soldiers came and went in rows of two or three, with steady steps and unswerving eyes, which made people feel a rush of discipline.

"Is this the royal master who defeated Yuan Shao, Ma Chao, and my Jiangdong Rui Shi..."

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu was secretly shocked.

As a battle-hardened general, he naturally has extraordinary vision. He can tell whether an army is elite or not from the details.

The entire Han military camp gave him a sense of order and order. There is also the discipline that seems to be engraved in the bones of the soldiers!

When an army has such a high sense of discipline, its execution ability must also be strong. An army that can execute orders and prohibitions on the battlefield is undoubtedly very terrifying.

But there are few such armies in the world.

And just as Zhou Yu secretly looked at all the details in the military camp, he suddenly heard a sonorous and powerful cry of killing.

Zhou Yu turned his head and looked over.

The direction of the sound came from the school field in the military camp. Gao Shun was commanding a group of soldiers to conduct drills in the school field.

Gao Shun waved his hand and ordered: "Go around the school grounds and goose-step!"

The goose-stepping method is not only to train the military appearance and military power, but also to train the soldiers' discipline. Now it has been included in the daily training content of the army.

His order was quickly conveyed through the command flag.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Thousands of soldiers began to goose-step around the school grounds.

Their footsteps on the ground were like thousands of troops galloping past. While making a roar, they were so uniform!

Everyone's footsteps fell at the same time.

Every time they waved or raised their feet, they were exactly the same, and even their steps made only one sound, as if they were one!

Such a scene is shocking!

No army has ever been so organized. It is hard to imagine that this is something a group of people can do!

With just a startling glance, Zhou Yu could not look away, and for a moment he felt his scalp numb and his back chilly.

What a mighty army this is!

Thousands of soldiers are like a whole body, and the mighty military power is shocking; when they march in step, they are like thunder, which is intimidating.

When walking in unison, it gives people a neat and uniform beauty, which is pleasing to the eye.

"Formation!"

Gao Shun issued another order, and all the soldiers immediately began to disperse in an orderly manner. In less than five breaths, the original array was divided into several square arrays.

At a glance, the square formations are clearly distinct from each other and in order!

Immediately afterwards, the army began to conduct drills, using each phalanx of 500 people as a unit, constantly changing formations among each other, and conducting offensive operations!

Of course, this is not really fighting each other.

What they practiced was the formation changes in the art of war, using formations to break formations until one side's formation began to fall apart.

Under the command of the generals of each square formation, the soldiers continued to change their formations.

But during this process, the formation did not feel messy at all, everything was very orderly!

It seems that each square formation is a sophisticated machine, and every soldier in the square formation is a part that makes up this machine!

Today's military training methods are a combination of some later military training methods provided by Liu Xie, and then established after improvements by Zhang Liao and other generals. It combines many advantages and discards shortcomings.

The shouts of killing in the school ground shook the sky, spreading for miles around, and even the people in Chang'an City could hear it.

After the imperial army arrived, they basically had to practice every day. Before, people would come to watch, but soon the people in the city became accustomed to it.

But this was the first time Zhou Yu saw such a training method.

He stared at it with wide eyes, not wanting to let go of any detail, trying to keep the scene in front of him firmly in his mind.

When the army marched in step or step, he saw what it meant to be as immovable as a mountain; when they formed a formation to charge, he saw what it meant to be aggressive like fire!

Just as Zhou Yu was staring at the soldiers training in the school field, an indifferent voice suddenly came from the side.

"What are you doing here?"

Hearing this voice, Zhou Yu suddenly came back to his senses.

Then he subconsciously looked up and saw a burly general walking towards him, and his pupils suddenly shrank slightly.

Because the person coming is none other than Lu Bu!

Seeing this once sworn enemy, Zhou Yu felt very complicated, but in the end he still bowed respectfully and said, "I have met Mr. Wen."

Even though Lu Bu was the murderer of Sun Ce, today is different from the past. He has surrendered to the imperial court and both sides stand on the same front.

So some hatred must be let go.

Seeing Zhou Yu bowing his head and saluting, Lu Bu didn't give him a good look and snorted coldly: "Let me ask you, why are you here in my general's camp?"

"You are still here watching the training of our soldiers. Could it be that you want to be a spy and secretly learn how to train soldiers?"

Seeing Lu Bu being so aggressive, Chen Gong, who was following him, couldn't stand it anymore and said, "General Zhou has surrendered to the imperial court now, how can he be a spy? General, be careful what you say."

Zhou Yu's identity has been cleared. He is no longer a criminal who conspired against him, but a general with status and position.

Lu Bu said disgustedly: "A rebel is a traitor. I don't believe that he is sincerely surrendering. Your Majesty is still too gullible."

"I think this guy is pretending to submit, but in fact he is waiting for an opportunity to rebel!"

He didn't have any good impressions of Zhou Yu. A group of Jiangdong rats had caused him a lot of suffering in Yangzhou.

That is to say, he was not present when the emperor pardoned Zhou Yu yesterday, otherwise he would have stood up to oppose it.

Facing Lu Bu's words, Zhou Yu remained silent.

"Fengxian!"

Chen Gong suddenly straightened his face when he heard that Yilu Bu was going too far and scolded him in a low voice.

Seeing that Chen Gong was really angry, Lu Bu had no choice but to swallow his words again, glanced at Zhou Yu, and strode away.

After Lu Bu left, Chen Gong apologized to Zhou Yu and said, "General Zhou, don't mind. Duke Wen is such a rude person."

"Now that the general has just surrendered, Duke Wen will inevitably find it difficult to accept it. It will be fine when we get along with him for a long time in the future."

Zhou Yu sighed softly and said with a wry smile: "I am a defeated general and a rebel traitor. It is understandable that Duke Wen is dissatisfied with me."

"May I ask your surname?"

The person in front of him can silence Lu Bu with just one word, which shows that his status and relationship with Lu Bu are extraordinary.

Chen Gong cupped his hands and said, "Chen Gong, whose name is Gongtai."

Only then did Zhou Yu realize. He cupped his hands and said, "It turns out that your Excellency is Chen Gongtai. I have admired his famous name for a long time, but I am disrespectful and disrespectful."

He had long heard that Lü Bu had a confidant named Chen Gong, who gave advice to Lü Bu. The two men complemented each other in both civil and military affairs.

"The general is so complimentary."

Chen Gong smiled slightly and then asked: "I wonder why the general came to visit our army today?"

Zhou Yu said: "I was ordered by His Majesty to train naval forces for the imperial court, but it is impossible for all the soldiers and horses in the imperial court to become familiar with water warfare in three months."

"And the Bingzhou Army under Duke Wen is the most elite army in the imperial court, so I want to focus on starting with the Bingzhou Army."

He has already understood the composition of the imperial court's troops. Currently, the imperial court has a total of 150,000 troops, including a full 50,000 soldiers in the Bingzhou Army, all of whom are elites who have experienced war.

The Bingzhou Army will definitely be the main force going south to attack Cao Cao in the future, so it is not too late to train the Bingzhou Army first, and then slowly train the other armies.

"I see."

After hearing Zhou Yu's intention, Chen Gong finally understood, and then nodded and said: "Since your Majesty has given permission, it's all right."

"General, come with me to sit in the tent for a while. I will call all the key generals and tell them how to train them. The general can just communicate with them directly."

Zhou Yu nodded, but remembered something again, so he asked hesitantly: "Where is Mr. Wen..."

Chen Gong said with a smile: "General, don't worry. Mr. Wen is not afraid of anything, but he only dares to disobey His Majesty's will."

"At most, he will complain a few words, but he will never interfere with the general's training. If there is any problem, the general will just come to me directly, and I will tell him."

Zhou Yu was completely relieved after hearing this.

Then he went to the camp with Chen Gong.

Walking on the road, Chen Gong pointed to the soldiers in the school field, and then asked: "General Zhou, what do you think of the soldiers of our Bingzhou Army? Are they stronger or weaker than the soldiers and horses of Jiangdong?"

Zhou Yu replied without hesitation: "The military's strict discipline and elite soldiers are unparalleled in the world, far superior to the elite soldiers from Jiangdong."

This is Zhou Yu's emotion from the bottom of his heart, and there is no lie at all.

It's not as good as it is. The Bingzhou Army is powerful to the naked eye, both in terms of the quality of its soldiers and its weapons and equipment.

Chen Gong sighed after hearing this: "So I ask General Zhou to train carefully. I don't want to see these elite soldiers die in vain because they are not good at water warfare."

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Don't worry!"

…

After making the decision to build a navy, Liu Xie appointed Zhou Yu to train the army, handed over the task of building warships to the Smelting Bureau, and personally summoned Meng Yang, the director of the Smelting Bureau.

Weiyang Palace, Xuan Room.

"See Your Majesty."

After seeing Liu Xie, Meng Yang immediately saluted respectfully.

"Get up."

Liu Xie raised his left hand to indicate that he would not be polite, and then asked: "I will send troops south to fight against thieves in three months. Can the Smelting Bureau build enough warships in three months?"

Meng Yang had a look of embarrassment on his face when he heard this, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, three months... to be honest, it's a bit too soon."

"However, if enough manpower can be guaranteed, the Smelting Bureau can try its best."

He didn't dare to vouch for it. After all, it was a major matter related to going south to hunt down thieves, so he could only say that he would try his best.

After receiving this answer, Liu Xie couldn't help but frowned, but he also knew that time was tight, so he nodded and said, "Let's give it a try... What is that in your hand?"

He noticed that Meng Yang was holding a brocade box in his hand.

Mentioning this, Meng Yang suddenly became energetic and said enthusiastically: "Reporting to your Majesty, these are the research results of the Smelting Bureau during this period. I specially brought them to your Majesty for review."

As he spoke, he opened the brocade box in his hand.

There was a stack of drawings in the box, which were the results of the research and development of the craftsmen of the Metallurgical Bureau!

"Let me see it quickly!"

When Liu Xie saw these drawings, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he stood up and approached regardless of the emperor's etiquette.

He was curious about what surprises the Metallurgical Bureau could bring him this time.

Meng Yang laid out the drawings one by one, and then introduced them to Liu Xie with a red face.

"First of all, it is a new and improved version of the catapult. Unlike the traditional catapult, the new version uses torsion force to launch stones, with higher accuracy and longer range."

"This is the second generation of Mo Dao designed for the Mo Dao Army. It uses a new forging process, which is more handy, tougher, and has stronger armor-breaking ability."

"This is a new type of heavy armor designed for the heavy armor army. It also uses a new forging process to enhance defense while reducing weight..."

...

Meng Yang showed Liu Xie the new processes of the Manufacturing Bureau one by one.

The Mohist disciples were originally good at studying these technologies, and the Metallurgical Bureau provided them with a stable research environment, so they have achieved many extraordinary results over such a long time.

Liu Xie looked at the dazzling drawings in front of him, and even with his cunning, he couldn't help but feel quite happy.

Once these achievements are applied to the army, the combat effectiveness of the army can be greatly improved, and the southward expedition to fight the bandits will be more confident!

"But your majesty, these are nothing, we have also developed a real killer!"

After introducing these achievements to Liu Xie, Meng Yang said confidently, his face flushed with excitement.

"What killer?"

Liu Xie's curiosity was aroused again when he heard this. These achievements are nothing?

Meng Yang looked at Gao Lan on the side and said, "General Gao, please bring in the things I brought."

"Okay."

Gao Lan nodded, then turned and left the Xuanshi.

After a while, he came back again, but this time he was followed by several soldiers, who worked together to carry a huge object in.

This is a huge crossbow bed.

Unlike the traditional crossbow bed, this crossbow bed is mixed with many metal accessories, so that the whole gives people a sense of coldness and ferocity.

In addition, there were several soldiers holding thick crossbow arrows, which made people feel tingling!

Each crossbow arrow in their hands was as thick as a baby's forearm, reflecting a cold luster, as if it was thirsty for blood!

There was not even a blood groove on the arrow body, because there was no need.

It is conceivable that once hit by this arrow, there would be a big blood hole everywhere!

There is no room for the blood groove to play a role!

This is a war art that combines violence and killing!

"This is..."

Looking at the hideous killing weapon in front of him, Liu Xie's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart was even more shocked.

Meng Yang stepped forward and came to the side of the crossbow bed, and said excitedly:

"Your Majesty, please allow me to introduce you to the latest achievements of our smelting bureau, a killing weapon made using the Mohist mechanical technique-"

"Ten-shot crossbow!"
