Chapter 56

When Ding Feng heard this, he was even more curious about what kind of ship would be better than a seven-story building ship! So he asked, "Boss! What is it? What did the lord tell you?" Gan Ning couldn't help but smile proudly and said, "Boy! Haha! The lord said, after we take Liaodong, we must first capture the shipbuilders and build ships for us! Think about it, these craftsmen will build building ships, and our craftsmen will build ironclad ships, if both

Combined, it is an iron armored ship! Isn’t it much stronger than these broken wooden ships? And the lord also said that he is now ordering people to make a kind of equipment. As long as this equipment is invented successfully, we can use ships that do not use sails or manpower in the future. This ship is faster and has stronger defenses! And it is also an iron armored ship, you think! If that kind of ship is successfully built, who wants these building ships that are as slow as turtles climbing!"

When Ding Feng heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and said in disbelief: "No sails, no manpower, and fast speed? How is this possible? Without sails, no manpower, can the ship still move? Even if it can move with the water flow, the iron-clad ship would not be too heavy at that time? How could it be fast?" Gan Ning glared at Ding Feng and said to Ding Feng with a cold face: "What do you mean, kid? Are you doubting your lord? Are you tired of living? Do you dare to have this attitude?" Ding Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss! A misunderstanding!

How dare I doubt my lord? I am loyal to my lord! Boss, don't wrong me? But this incident is too unbelievable, right?" Gan Ning rolled his eyes and said, "What's incredible? Besides, even the unbelievable thing has happened to the lord, and it has become very common! Since the lord debuted, that thing has not been incredible! What's this now? The lord can invent this telescope and invent the Clippers that can travel without sailing manpower! There is nothing impossible! You! Just wait and see!"

Ding Feng nodded! Then he said a little depressedly: "As boss, do you say this time, have these ships become waste products? Then have we been working in vain this time? Apart from those prisoners, we can get nothing else!" Gan Ning shook his head and said: "That may not be possible! Although these warships cannot be used by our navy, these ships can be transformed into merchant ships! Selling these ships to those merchants is also a sum of money! Of course, the most valuable one this time is the prisoners!" Ding Feng was still a little puzzled, so he said: "Although prisoners in our Youzhou are also a valuable thing, but the lord has already issued a law! There are certain numbers of prisoners to buy and sell prisoners! There are not many people we captured this time! How much is it worth? I'm afraid it's not enough for our military expenditure to send troops!"

Gan Ning curled his lips and said, "I said you are short-sighted, you boy are not convinced! What do you know! Although the price of prisoners is fixed, it depends on how they are used, and on the identity of those prisoners! These are all elite naval soldiers! Our Youzhou Navy has been in the army for a short time and has no background! Most of the soldiers who are truly available in our army are the foundations we did when we were doing business in Dajiang! The rest are some new recruits! Although the training is real, there is no experience.

How many bloody battles have passed, they are not considered elite! This time, the reason why we can win this time is that in addition to the advantages of tactical intelligence, it still relies on the advantages of equipment, which has little to do with the combat effectiveness of the soldiers! These soldiers in Liaodong are all elite soldiers with a hundred battles, with extremely rich combat experience! They are really rare soldiers! Although our Youzhou Navy now has a population of 100,000! However, according to my understanding of the lord, he will still expand the navy's strength in the future. These prisoners will be our future soldiers!"

Speaking of this, Gan Ning stopped and looked at the captured Liaodong Navy flagship. Ding Feng nodded and understood what Gan Ning meant! But Gan Ning then said: "Of course, the most valuable ones are not these soldiers! Although these soldiers are elite, we cannot train them! The most valuable ones are the generals. Although they are a little unpromising, their talents are extraordinary! Although our Youzhou Navy has a large number, there are not many excellent generals! This is also the disadvantage of our navy!

Although the lord also established the Naval Academy, he said that he did not know much about naval combat, so the Naval Academy could at most train some intermediate generals, and it is hard to say about the advanced ones! Therefore, if our Youzhou Navy wants to expand, we must find a way to absorb outstanding talents from the outside world! Otherwise, no matter how many soldiers we have in the future, it will be difficult to achieve great things! Can't we all need to mobilize every time a battle breaks out? The commander of the Liaodong Navy is a good talent! That's why I said that we made a profit this time!"

It is said that experts look at the tricks, while laymen watch the excitement. Gan Ning happens to be an expert in the navy. Therefore, he still admires the ability of the Liaodong Navy to command the fleet. Moreover, Gan Ning also understands that although this commander was defeated by him in this water battle, it does not mean that the commander's command ability is worse than that of him, but that he does not understand that his turmoil battleship is made of steel, and he suffers his own secret losses. That is why he values ​​the generals of the Liaodong Navy so much! Ding Feng only then understood Gan Ning's intention! After understanding these principles, he truly admires Gan Ning. No wonder the lord valued the boss so much! It turns out that the boss's strategic vision is indeed much stronger than those of him!

At this moment, someone came to report and said, "Report to General! The enemy's warship has been captured by our army! The captives have been controlled! Please tell us what should we do next?" Gan Ning heard this, smiled slightly, and said to Ding Feng: "Let's go! Let's see! These people may be our robes in the future!" Ding Feng smiled and rushed to the flagship of Liaodong with Gan Ning!

A group of generals of the Youzhou Navy followed Gan Ning to the other party's flagship and saw the soldiers and generals of the Liaodong Navy standing aside obediently. Of course, they were all tied up! But what interested Gan Ning was that there were still a few people on the ground tied up with stinky socks in their mouths! It looked very funny! Gan Ning just looked at it, but he didn't care. Instead, he turned his head to look at the prisoners and said, "Who are you the commander of the Liaodong Navy? Stand up for me!" As soon as Gan Ning finished speaking, the captives all looked at one person. The man smiled awkwardly, stood up, and said to Gan Ning in a flattering manner: "Report to General! The villain is the commander of this army! The villain Wang Shuo, please hello to the general!" (Wang Shuo, a book friend played the true love!)

Seeing him like this, Gan Ning couldn't help but frown! Wang Shuo's attitude is so flattering and unconscionable, it's really disgusting! How could he have real talent and knowledge in such a person? Gan Ning was really a little suspicious. The person who commanded the Liaodong Navy just now was not this person at all! So Gan Ning said directly: "You are the person who commanded the Liaodong Navy just now and fought with our army, but are you?" Wang Shuo was stunned when he heard this. He didn't know what Gan Ning meant to ask this question! Is this to be held accountable or another reason! If you value this commander, you have to do it.

It would be fine if Gan Ning was ready to hold him accountable and wanted to take revenge and stand up, it would be troublesome! So he quickly said, "Report to General, the villain dare not hide it! Although the villain is the commander of this army, it is not the villain who commanded the battle just now! But someone else!" After that, he pointed to Mr. Xu, who was stuffed with smelly socks in his mouth, and said, "It was him who commanded the battle just now! He was sent by Gongsun Du to assist me in the battle! He did not hold any position in the army, but just a staff officer! A villain can be a shallow man, how could he be the general's opponent!"

When Gan Ning heard this, he was very interested, so he smiled and said, "Haha! No wonder, why is it so strange! Since he was sent by Gongsun Du, why only he was given a staff position? Why do you tie him up?" Wang Shuo smiled awkwardly again and said, "The reason why he only gave him a staff position was specially explained by Gongsun Du! Because this person is not our person at all! He is not even a Han person! I don't know who sent him to meet Gongsun Du! Gongsun Du saw that he was talented, but he was not at ease with him, so he did this! As for tie him up, it was because when the general asked us to surrender just now, he refused to surrender, and he insisted on resisting to the end and preparing to die with the general! So the villain had no choice but to have someone catch him!"

Only then did Gan Ning and others understand what was going on! Wang Shuo was a cordyceps and probably had no talent, so Gan Ning was naturally too lazy to pay attention to him! He was interested in Mr. Xu now! Mr. Xu was not a Han Chinese or a person from other forces, but it was really rare for him to have such talent! If he was conquered, it would be a great thing for the Youzhou Navy! So Gan Ning said, "Let him loosen his ties! I have something to ask him!" After hearing Gan Ning's words, the person next to him quickly loosened the tie for Mr. Xu and took away the smelly socks in his mouth! Gan Ning said to him with interest: "Who are you? How could you run to Gongsun Du? Now you have been captured by our army! Are you willing to surrender to our army?"
