Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2273 - 2015: Joining Forces Against the Enemy (Part 4)

"Issue emergency orders, instruct Li Yan not to approach the site of Gan Ning’s decisive battle with the enemy, use the crossbow mechanism to directly attack the enemy’s warships; the enemy’s secondary Cloud Qi enhancement has directly lost its warship’s defensive power!" Zhou Yu immediately ordered the horn blower.

This attack allowed Zhou Yu to directly discern the intricacies of Kushan’s naval battle techniques. Compared to Gan Ning, who had learned Kushan’s naval battle techniques, Zhou Yu understood more deeply the essence of all naval battle techniques.

[If I’m not mistaken, the enemy’s warships themselves haven’t used materials and structures to enhance their strength, but have strengthened the storage of Cloud Qi. In essence, both these attributes are those possessed by a city; however, because the warship differs in size from a city, only one can be chosen.] Zhou Yu thought with a peculiar expression.

[In other words, the enemy navy’s techniques are basically all based on Cloud Qi techniques.] Zhou Yu was somewhat fascinated; he had understood the essence but also understood why the Han Army’s navy had not yet developed navy techniques.

"So that’s it, the Han Dynasty hasn’t shown any naval techniques on this side, not because the navy is incapable. On the contrary, we’ve actually developed more techniques." Zhou Yu muttered to himself, looking at the gap formed after all possible attackable Kushan warships were quickly sunk.

"It’s a pity that the enemy might have developed a lot of naval combat techniques relying on Cloud Qi reserve technology, but the techniques are too many, and they’re actually unnecessary." Zhou Yu sneered, looking into the distance at Li Yan and others; they had already begun using heavy crossbow machines to attack those Kushan warships whose reserved Cloud Qi had lost their group defense formation.

Although earlier, when Zhou Yu didn’t understand, he felt these techniques were indeed extremely stunning, far more powerful than the Han Dynasty’s naval battle, requiring absorption and learning. But now that Zhou Yu comprehended, discovering the essence of Kushan’s naval battle, Zhou Yu understood that Kushan’s method wasn’t suitable for them.

As for the so-called Kushan naval battle techniques, to put it bluntly, aren’t they merely Cloud Qi application techniques? Kushan naval battles are formidable, to put it bluntly, because their warships reserve a lot of Cloud Qi. In terms of Cloud Qi application techniques, the Central Plains have various military formations, plenty worth referencing.

[Hmm, but the enemy’s naval technology indeed far exceeds ours. To remedy this aspect, developing some naval battle techniques is necessary, but compared to their flaws that are too apparent and numerous, in fact, relying on our warships only requires five or six techniques to be sufficient.] Zhou Yu thought silently.

Because Zhou Yu needs to deal with Sunx Ce regularly, he generally adopts or considers approaches that accommodate Sunx Ce’s intelligence; that is, straightforward and easy for practical combat. Thus, the moment Zhou Yu began truly considering, several plans emerged.

However, these plans aren’t something that can be experimented with in a short time, so Zhou Yu suppressed his inner thoughts and began commanding the warships for a counterattack. If the enemy activates reserved Cloud Qi forming double reinforcement, they withdraw using the crossbow mechanism to attack ships. If the enemy doesn’t suppress, the Han Army performs boarding attacks, trying to seize ships.

Zhou Yu’s actions were quickly detected by Kushan’s lookout and then relayed to Lochte. Lochte was slightly stunned, as if only realizing now such situations could occur, but subsequently recalled how to deal with such situations.

Although his intelligence was greatly suppressed after consuming Zhou Yu’s Spiritual Talent, he had a deep impression of related experiences. He immediately switched combat strategies, ceasing decisive attacks, turning to conventional naval battle modes for suppression and encirclement.

And swiftly dispatched a fleet to similarly suppress the fleet led by Li Yan and Ling Cao, quickly holding Zhou Yu’s fleet in check, causing Zhou Yu to feel quite vexed.
