Chapter 717 The first effect of driving tigers and swallowing wolf

Since Gan Ning was captured in Hanzhong, he was sent to Youzhou thousands of miles away from Yizhou. Several months have passed. In the past few months, although Gan Ning has eaten well and slept soundly, he still cannot eliminate the knot of being captured by others. In addition, he suddenly became thousands of miles away from home. If it were anyone, he would inevitably feel a little frustrated and entangled.

Gan Ning was a rampant guy in the village and had nostrils upside down. After being locked up for several months, when he saw Taishi Ci, who was serious but majestic, he could imagine his dissatisfaction in his heart.

Before Gan Ning arrived in Quanzhou, Zhao Xing's secret letter to Taishi Ci arrived in advance. In the letter, Zhao Xing specifically reminded Taishi Ci that Gan Ning was a thorny guy, but he was indeed capable. As long as he could be subdued, he would definitely become the number one general under Taishi Ci in the future. As for how to subdue Gan Ning, Zhao Xing did not have any more tips, and Taishi Ci decided it entirely. In fact, this is also a manifestation of Zhao Xing's trust in Taishi Ci. Since Gan Ning is going to follow Taishi Ci in the future, Taishi Ci will do the task of regaining people's hearts.

At the beginning, Taishici and Gan Ning persuaded each other with kind words, moved them with emotion and reason. However, Gan Xingba was always a bold and arrogant guy. He didn't care what others said. If he wanted to convince him, he had to see the truth on his fists and feet. Only by winning could he win.

Taishici is low-key and cautious, but it does not mean that he is a weak and bullied character. Otherwise, Zhao Xing would not have given him the most expensive navy to command. Since Gan Ning is a backward donkey who is leading him without leaving, Taishici must repair him well.

Just as Xu Hui heard just now, in the previous two battles, Taishi Ci did not use any means, and under completely fair conditions, he defeated Gan Ning two consecutive games, which completely dispelled Gan Ning's original arrogance and arrogant temperament. In this third battle, neither of them used any weapons and only used fists and feet to compete on the ground, which showed Gan Ning's solid martial arts foundation. The two fought for nearly a hundred rounds, but it was still difficult to tell the difference.

After the first two contests, Gan Ning had completely put away his arrogance and had a real understanding of Taishi Ci's martial arts and character. This third contest is more appropriate than a competition.

Gan Ning has a thin and strong figure, quick and quick movements, and his movements are erratic. The fists and feet he hit are always unpredictable. Taishici has a tall and well-proportioned figure, and his hands are powerful. His movements are wide open and close. The fists and feet he hits are afraid to fight head-on. When the two of them fought for more than 200 rounds, they were already sweating profusely and finally exhausted, so they jumped out of the field and stopped making peace.

Gan Ning clasped his fists and said, "The Admiral Taishi is really powerful. A certain family lost two losses and one draw in three battles. They have already lost. I am willing to be the vanguard in the future and wait for the order!"

Taishici bowed his fists and said, "It's a blessing to finally get Xingba spitting today! From now on, you and my brothers will work together to do something earth-shaking!"

Seeing that the battle was over, Xu Hui walked to Taishi Ci, saluted a military salute in a regular manner, and then reported loudly: "According to the order of King Pingxi, Xu Hui, the captain of the Sea Dragon Armor No. 3 of Fenwuying, was over and returned to his original position as a navy master. I will report to you!"

Taishi Ci returned the gift and said happily: "Today, Xingba helped him, and Guangzu returned with the captain who had been trained. It won't take long before the navy can have a head-on battle with Gongsun Du's navy!"

Subsequently, Xu Hui submitted the 500,000 taels of additional military expenses he carried with him to Taishi Ci, and handed over the letter of appointment to Gan Ning as the commander of the Jin Navy Fenweiying.

The Jin Navy now has 50,000 officers and soldiers, of which 20,000 are the main force of water warfare, divided into the fourth battalion of Fenwei, Fenwu, Fenzheng and Fenxian, with 5,000 people per battalion; the 20,000 land brigade is the main force of nearshore combat, divided into four brigades, with 5,000 people per team; the remaining 10,000 people are mainly distributed in logistics equipment positions such as auxiliary ships and shipyards.

Currently, the fourth battalion of the Navy is stationed in Quanzhou, the second battalion of Fenwei, the second battalion of Fenwu, the Fenzheng camp of the Le'anliaocheng Military Port in Qingzhou, and the Fenxian camp of the Yuzhou Military Port in Donghai, Xuzhou. In addition, in the advance bases of both Dongmu, a small number of naval officers and soldiers are stationed.

Gan Ning was just a vanguard in front of Sima Yi, and only commanded three thousand soldiers. Now, as soon as he arrived at the Jin Navy, he was awarded the commanding position of 5,000 naval soldiers and nearly a hundred warships of all sizes, which shows how much Zhao Xing and Taishici valued him.

After returning from his studies, Xu Hui was transferred by Taishi Ci to Gan Ning, Fenweiying, and served as deputy commander. In the future, he was mainly responsible for assisting Gan Ning in familiarizing with the characteristics of naval combat, and was responsible for the formulation of the Fenweiying combat plan and the organization and implementation of daily training.

Despite Gan Ning's joining and a group of trained elite captains returned, Taishici still felt that the senior generals of the Navy were really lacking. In order to perform the next many tasks, he still needed to accelerate the promotion of a group of capable subordinates and lead the Navy onto a path of stable and rapid development as soon as possible.

Shortly after Xu Hui returned from Wohu City, Taishici gathered to discuss matters, and the specific content involved the deployment of the Liaodong Navy's operations.

Standing in front of the huge military map, Taishici personally explained to the generals the "Tiger and Wolf Eat" plan that the Crouching Tiger Commander had originally planned.

Taishici said: "The so-called driving tigers and swallowing wolves is mainly divided into three steps. The first step is that the Canglang Army marched thousands of miles, accidentally moved from the Western Regions to the Fuyu territory between the Greater and Greater Khingan Mountains, and combined with the troops of the Fuyu Kingdom to form an oppressive situation from the north to the Wuwan people and Goguryeo, constantly compressing their living space, forcing these two forces to migrate southward and fight with Gongsun Du from Liaodong."

"In the second step, the Black Mountain Army set off from Dongsheng Island and landed in Benhan on a troop transport ship provided by the navy. With the assistance of Dongsheng Kingdom, it drove the three Han tribes to migrate to the Mazishui area, further compressing Gongsundu's living space."

"The third step is that Xiong Fu army takes a troop transport ship provided by the navy to bypass Linyu Pass. After landing in western Liaoning, the Liaodong garrison stationed in Linyu Pass and Gongsun Du's connection with Gongsun Du; the navy completely blocked the coast of Liaodong and completely forced the 20,000 naval troops in Gongsun Du's hands into the entrance of the Liaoshui River to Fangxian. At this point, in a relatively narrow range, there will be many forces such as Wuhuan, Goguryeo, Gongsun Du, Sanhan, and Wuhua to fight. We will be on the periphery and wait to clean up the remaining one!"

With the assistance of the topographic map and combat sand table, Taishici's explanation was very thorough. The generals completely understood the role of the navy in this war. Even "chicken birds" like Gan Ning who had never participated in the combat deployment meeting could understand it.

Gan Ning thought to himself: When Ma Chao came to capture him, did he also gesture to the map or sand table with his subordinates. When his eyes were still dark, he was afraid that he had analyzed himself thoroughly. Now it seems that it is not unfair to lose to Ma Chao. Compared with the troops of Jin State, the difference between the Yizhou army and the troops of Jin State is not a small matter!

"At present, the first phase of driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf has been successfully completed, and the progress of the second phase is also very smooth. The commander of the Crouching Tiger ordered us to enter the third phase in advance. Below, the combat missions of each battalion are announced..." As Taishi Ci's loud voice sounded again, one combat mission after another was quickly issued to the various troops of the Jin Navy. ~
