The Nameless of the Common Clans

Name: Chen Mo

Fate: Qianlong 97

Luck: 94

Life Skills: Master of Fangzhongshu...

Summoning the System Immortal again and looking at the dazzling array of skills, Chen Mo felt a little emotional. Unknowingly, he had accumulated so many abilities. To be able to pacify the Central Plains, the System Immortal's help was not insignificant. Sometimes, Chen Mo also I will think about it, if there was no secret help from the system gods, would I be able to achieve what I am today?

The answer is yes, no!

Along the way, I have crossed countless levels. No one knows the difficulty of this better than Chen Mo. Without the help of the system gods, I am afraid that I will not be able to grasp the many opportunities that I have encountered in my life. I may not be able to become a teacher, because there is no System, no matter how hard I work, I will never be so good, and naturally I will not be able to attract the favor of my mentor. Even if I rely on my hard work and manage to be a boy, I am afraid that I will miss out on Lu Gong, and will not be able to marry Cai Yan, or even Even Yunsi may not be able to marry her.

It is estimated that in this life, being a local powerful person in the county is the limit, so Chen Mo has always had great respect for this immortal projection who rarely speaks, even if the other party never actively communicates with him.

After silently bowing to the phantom three times, Chen Mo bowed and said: "To the gods, I want to learn the art of water warfare!"

Just like many times in the past, after Chen Mo made a choice, he fell asleep instantly, but his consciousness entered a vast white world, and the next moment, he appeared in a naval camp.

One night is a long time for Chen Mo.

In fact, in the earliest record of the method of water warfare, Wu Zixu extended it from the concept of chariot warfare, and then evolved it based on the differences in water warfare. The difference is that in water warfare, in addition to the warship itself, The requirements for climate are very important. Wind direction can often determine the outcome of a water battle, which places high demands on generals.

In one night, for Chen Mo, he had been floating on the water for more than ten years. He had experienced countless water battles and naval battles. The biggest impression given to Chen Mo was that in addition to generals who were good at water battles, ships also largely determined the fate of ships. It depends on the strength of the navy.

Early the next morning, after Chen Mo woke up, he shook his head and asked someone to call Ma Jun and Liu Yi.

"See the Prime Minister." Ma Jun and Liu Yi are currently mainly responsible for researching and manufacturing new weapons. In Luoyang, it is worth mentioning that Liu Yi, with the secret help of Chen Mo, finally married Lu Bu's daughter, and now the couple Staying in Luoyang, I heard that life was good, but Liu Yi was a bit henpecked. After marrying Lu Lingqi, he never took another concubine in these years.

"I called you two here today because I want to ask, do you two understand the art of shipbuilding?" Chen Mo asked them with a smile as he motioned for them to sit down.

Ma Jun nodded when he heard this and said: "I know a little bit, but when it comes to shipbuilding skills, in the world, I'm afraid the Lu family and the Zhu family in Jiangdong are the ones."

Chen Mo nodded. He had been on ships before, but when it came to shipbuilding, Chen Mo had never paid attention to it. However, in the dream training camp last night, Chen Mo studied it carefully after realizing that warships played a great role in water warfare. He It was found that the warships on different battlefields were different. Some were flat-bottomed warships with poor stability in the water, while some were able to cross the sea.

Although there are also shipbuilding skills in the dream training camp, after comparison, Chen Mo found that most of the shipbuilding skills he could learn were flat-bottomed. The kind of ships that can cross the sea were not explained in the shipbuilding skills, so he could only use the skills he learned in the dream. He took out some things and gave them to Ma Jun and Liu Yi to do.

"You two, take a look at these pictures." Chen Mo drew a drawing of a ship called a keel structure from memory and gave it to the two of them for reference.

"Prime Minister, this kind of structure has never been seen before." Ma Jun frowned after looking at the drawings.

"Is it possible?" Chen Mo asked.

"I've never tried it, so I can't guarantee it." Ma Jun shook his head. Will this kind of pointed-bottomed boat capsize when it enters the water?

"One of you two should try it. I got this from a strange person to see if it can be used!" Chen Mo looked at the two of them. As for who would go, Chen Mo didn't think about it and let them decide for themselves.

"Prime Minister." Liu Yi thought for a moment and saluted Chen Mo: "Brother Deheng needs to be in charge of many things in the craftsman camp. I'm afraid he won't be able to leave. My wife has never seen the majesty of the sea in her life, so why not just leave it to me?" How about leaving this job to me?"

"Alright, I will give you three hundred craftsmen and two thousand escorts to go to the East China Sea to find a place to set up and study this matter. If possible, try to build some big ships. If you need any money, you can report it directly to the court. I will I will help you as much as possible." Chen Mo nodded and said with a smile: "If this happens, you will be the first to conquer Jiangdong in the future."

If it can be done, not only large ships but also small boats will be needed to cooperate. Chen Mo also sent suitable generals to try to train the navy and find some pirates to fight.

"Here!" Liu Yi was not sure. After all, this was a brand new thing that was contrary to their previous ideas. It was still unclear whether it could be successful. It was not good to boast too early. He planned to use this method in Aocang first. Try building a few small boats, and then take the waterway to the East China Sea. If there are any problems, you can detect them in time.

After seeing that Chen Mo had no other instructions, the two stood up and left.

Although he is already preparing to attack Jiangdong, in fact, according to Chen Mo's plan, he will not take the initiative to provoke a war for at least five years. The Central Plains has just been conquered, the implementation of new laws, the improvement of people's livelihood, and the rectification of officialdom have not been completed for five years. Years would not come down at all. Just as Sima Yi had guessed, his first step in rectifying the officialdom was to start with the local county magistrates, and then work his way up to the court step by step. Although it was more troublesome in the early stage, but as time went by It will be easier in the end and the foundation will be more solid.

So regarding the navy, Chen Mo had a lot of time to practice. In the next few days, Chen Mo wrote out the navy tactics and asked Ma Jun to publish them. It doesn’t have to be too much. This thing is not suitable for promotion yet. If Jiang Dong gets it , on the contrary, it is disadvantageous, as long as all important generals under his command have one copy.

"What do Wen He think?" In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chen Mo looked at Jia Xu as he looked at the people who were reading the naval strategy with gusto.

"Xu doesn't understand water warfare. It would be unfair if I leave it to my ministers to evaluate him. People will be dissatisfied. However, my lord has been fighting hard for a long time. With this strategy, I think it won't be too bad." Jia Xu said with a smile.

Chen Mo's theoretical foundation is very solid. All the examples of water warfare recorded in history books can be found in this naval warfare strategy, and he has conducted a rigorous analysis. However, if you have never been exposed to water warfare, you can only rely on what is said in the book. Jia Xu couldn't say how powerful his famous navy strategy was, as it was a bit like talking on paper, but facing Chen Mo, Jia Xu couldn't say it directly.

The people present were all human beings, so naturally they would not refute it directly, but they did not evaluate it either. Whether this strategy is useful or not depends on the effectiveness of the generals' training.

Chen Mo can probably guess what everyone is thinking. Sometimes not saying it directly is just a refutation, but it is just more tactful. Chen Mo is not angry. Although the things learned in the dream training camp have been confirmed countless times, there is absolutely no problem, but before the results come out, No matter how much I tried to promise, it was useless. He immediately smiled and said: "Let's choose some generals to try. Do you have anyone in mind?"

"My lord, when it comes to generals, I think that General Lu has been marching to the north in recent years, which has made the Hu people afraid to go south to herd horses. The Xianbei and Xiongnu tribes have sent people to offer generous gifts to our court. I should ask General Lu to give it a try." Xiu smiled.

What does it mean to talk on paper? That's it.

Chen Mo nodded and did not answer. Xun You on the side smiled and said: "I heard that when General Lu wanted to cross the Han River, during the battle with the Jingxiang navy, he held on to the railing and vomited. Obviously he was not used to fighting on the water, and General Lu was like This year, I am getting used to living in the northern part of the country, but now I am suddenly going south, I am afraid I will feel uncomfortable.”

Xun You's words also meant what Chen Mo said. He has led thousands of troops and he knows very well that this talent is real. Some people are good at cavalry, some are good at infantry combat, some are good at defense, and some like to attack. This is the method of water warfare. Similar to the ancient chariot battles, Lu Bu's fighting method is obviously not suitable, and Lu Bu obviously rejects water battles. Even if it is changed now, you have to ask more than 100 or 50 old people to go into the water to learn swimming, which is obviously not suitable. Lu Bu's battlefield is on the grassland. Not Jianghai.

"In this way, first recruit fishermen to establish a naval army in the East China Sea, and then let the generals from all parties come to test and select generals suitable for naval warfare." Chen Mo waved his hand. The matter of naval generals has always been a headache for him. If he has to fight Jiangdong in the future, this water battle cannot be avoided, but now he can only try it step by step. He has time and can take his time.

Everyone nodded. The time to attack Jiangdong is not yet ripe. Training the navy in the East China Sea is considered preparation in advance. There is no need to be too anxious.

"There's one more thing." Chen Mo thought for a while, looked at the crowd and said, "Before Meng De died, he left a last word that if he wanted to bring peace to the world, he should first establish the land of Shu. What do you think?"

Xun You thought: "The land of Shu is difficult to level, because the road to Shu is difficult. If the lord does not want this place, Cao Cao and Sun Quan will definitely try to take it. If these two people are allowed to capture Shu, it will be even harder for our army to pacify the world. What Cao Gong said , and it is indeed reasonable, but I think that if our army can conquer Jingxiang, it is not a bad idea to pacify Jiangdong first, and then conquer Shu. Even if we can succeed, Shu may be defeated without attack, and Liu Zhang will definitely come to surrender. "

Chen Mo nodded. Cao Cao's last words to Chen Mo were based on the premise that Chen Mo could not quickly pacify Jiangdong and Jingzhou. If Chen Mo could pacify Jingzhou first, or even only need to capture Nanjun, even if he could not quickly pacify Jiangdong, he could Cut off the connection between Jiangdong and Shu. As long as Sun Quan is not stupid, he will not dare to attack Shu through Chen Mo.

Jiangdong Chen Mo can't deal with it for the time being, but Liu Bei in Jingzhou and Chen Mo are still confident to fight. At least this Nanjun, Chen Mo is confident to win.

"If we attack Jingzhou, we must be absolutely sure and monitor Jingzhou's movements closely. If Liu Bei intends to enter Shu, ask Zhang Liao to contain him immediately!"

"Here!"
