Chapter 702
"Haha! Naturally, you can!"
Su Xuan laughed: "I have high hopes for your naval warfare talent!"
"I won't hide it from you; the navy of the future will be one of the branches I focus on developing; one navy is far from enough!"
"Soon, the second and third navies will take shape;"
"I don't lack naval soldiers and warships; what I lack are capable naval main generals!"
"Of course, I cannot directly appoint you as the naval main general; before that, there will be an assessment, and you will compete with several great naval generals;"
"Whoever is more outstanding will become the new naval main general first;"
"Those who fail will continue to compete and learn until you all meet the requirements, or my naval fleet is sufficient."
In this world, the ocean occupies most of the territory.
Moreover, in future conquests of other continents, the navy will clearly have more advantages and be faster.
Of course, the premise is to have sufficiently powerful warships and sufficient navigation technology.
And Su Xuan lacks none of these.
Over the past few years, he has long used his memories from his past life and his heaven-defying comprehension to restore and create the navy and shipping technologies from his past memories.
In fact, he has even localized and further optimized them.
It can be said that traversing the vast ocean is no longer that difficult for him.
"This subordinate will definitely not disappoint the Lord's expectations!"
Zhou Yu promised excitedly.
This is what he wanted; he couldn't miss such an opportunity no matter what.
Sun Ce, on the side, was not jealous at all, but instead happy for Zhou Yu's encounter and future height.
Best friends for life!
That is them!
He treated Zhou Yu as someone closer than his own brother.
Speaking of his own brother, it reminded Sun Ce of his second brother Sun Quan, whom he had already beheaded.
Sun Ce couldn't help but show a trace of disgust.
Compared to Zhou Yu, his own brother was simply disgusting and despicable.
Actually wanting to rebel against his own brother and secretly control his brother's forces.
Even ignoring the family's future; such a dog is simply not worthy of being a member of his Sun family.
Of course, because he beheaded Sun Quan, although he had told his mother the whole process, Lady Wu also understood Sun Ce's difficulty.
But she couldn't help but be angry at Sun Ce, feeling that Sun Ce shouldn't have been so ruthless and killed Sun Quan directly.
Even sparing his life and putting him under house arrest would have been better than killing him directly!
Lady Wu clearly couldn't bear the fratricide for a while.
But Sun Ce was also helpless.
He had thought about sparing Sun Quan's life and putting him under house arrest.
But he didn't have the qualification to make this decision at all!
From beginning to end, this matter was told to him and helped by Su Xuan.
Moreover, he was preparing to defect to Su Xuan.
If he really spared Sun Quan's life, he wouldn't be able to explain it to Su Xuan, and it would greatly lower his status and image in Su Xuan's heart, thereby affecting the future of the Sun family, the Zhou family, and his subordinates.
Sun Ce couldn't do that.
Therefore, he could only sacrifice Sun Quan and let him die.
"Don't blame me, Second Brother! Blame yourself for courting death and for your vicious heart!"
"If you had cared even a little about brotherly affection, you wouldn't have secretly plotted to eliminate me and seize my foundation."
Sun Ce thought resentfully in his heart.
"Haha! Very good!"
Seeing Zhou Yu full of energy, Su Xuan smiled and waved his hand: "Alright! I will arrange these later; next, I need you to cooperate with my army to smoothly take over the Jiangdong commanderies and complete the reforms in each Jiangdong commandery!"
"This matter cannot be sloppy; if done well, I will record a great merit for you!"
"Of course, given that Bofu and Gongjin have just joined and have already made great contributions, I cannot delay your growth;"
"So, I will temporarily set up a Merit Hall before the army here! You can exchange for whatever you want directly from me!"
"Yes! This is the roster; take a look! If there is anything you want, you can tell us directly!"
"Currently, Bofu, your merit points are 1 Great Merit, 3 Medium Merits, 5 Small Merits."
Saying this, Su Xuan flipped his hand and took out an illustrated catalog of the Merit Pavilion and handed it to Sun Ce and Zhou Yu.
"Uh..."
