Ice Sea Lord: Starting with Intelligence Update

"Hmph, you've got quite the nerve. Tell me your thoughts."

Jing Sheng nodded vigorously, his face beaming with excitement at being appreciated by a nobleman.

He grabbed a rusty red nail, held it by the end, and started writing on the floor.

His movements were swift and efficient, showing no trace of his earlier dejected and lonely state. He enthusiastically constructed several simple naval battle models.

"My lord, please look!" Jing Sheng spread his hands, directing He Feng's gaze to the simple map drawn on the ground.

The arrangement is very simple: three small circles represent the White Raven City pursuers, and a larger circle represents the Azure.

"If I were that damned officer, I would command the fleet like this." He pointed the spike at one of the small circles.

"This small circle is the main force of the three armed ships. I will position it behind the Azure to exert pressure and track the general direction of the Azure."

Similarly, the other two flanking ships would spread out to the sides, avoiding the Azure's main firepower.

He Feng seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked.

"If this continues, your firepower will be scattered. Without the guidance of the main ship, you are likely to lose your way in the fog, and it will all be for nothing."

With a smile on his face, Jing Sheng waved his index finger, squatted on the ground with his right hand supporting him, then connected the three separate small circles and spoke with a slightly smug look.

"My method is to arrange the entire formation into a relatively fixed isosceles triangle, with the main ship as the vertex, so that the distance between the side ships and the main ship is two sides."

When the main ship begins to fire, the deafening sound will pierce through the dense fog, reaching the ears of the sailors on the side ships at a speed of approximately 300 meters per second. By simply noting the time it is heard, the approximate distance between the main ship and the Azure will become clear.

An excited blush rose on his face, and with a smug smile, he picked up the rusted iron nail and drew three arrows to raise the position of the three small ships.

Finally, the spike was ruthlessly driven into the center of the large circle representing the Azure.

As a result, the three smaller circles formed a perfectly regular isosceles triangle that nested around the larger circle, extinguishing any chance of life.

Upon seeing this scene, He Feng gasped in shock.

"Is there any way for the Azure Ship, which is being besieged, to escape?" he asked calmly, feigning composure.

Jing Sheng waved his hand confidently and replied simply, "In my plan, without divine intervention, this is a dead end for the Azure."

He raised his head, revealing his arrogance without reservation.

"As long as I am willing to take on the next battle, there is no chance for the opponent to escape alive. If you are my opponent, there is only one way out: death."

Jing Sheng was still smugly showing off his achievements, unaware that He Feng's face had turned frighteningly dark.

Countless countermeasures flashed through his mind, but they were all shattered in the fierce brainstorming, leaving him no chance to process them.

The content is detailed and has sufficient theoretical support.

They were not on the same level as someone who had entered the field halfway through, which made He Feng even more fearful.

This guy is really something else!

Using wind speed and formation to pursue the enemy—this incredible offensive tactic was something He Feng found utterly astonishing.

What if he were in charge of this battle?

This kind of person, who's full of brilliant ideas, can be easily beaten down.

Faced with such a master of micro-management, the only result would be that He Feng would be unable to cope and would be overwhelmed.

He Feng is bound to be defeated in his presence.

After the initial shock, He Feng's heart calmed down.

He immediately pulled up the intelligence he had just refreshed, his face a picture of utter excitement.

[Intelligence (Updated): General Jing Sheng has been captured and is being held in your fortress. He possesses exceptional military talent and can be rated as a "Living Han Xin"]

He Feng had already severely overdrawn his mental energy by using Sanqi's spiritual power to refresh the new permanent information, but he still relentlessly used the excuse that the landlord's family still had surplus grain to forcibly squeeze it dry.

I originally wanted to enter information about iron ore to try and refresh the page, but it redirected me to the talent recruitment section instead.

Upon seeing the four large characters "Han Xin in the Living," He Feng rushed towards the prison cell in a great hurry.

Now it seems that it truly lives up to its reputation.

If such talent cannot be put to use by the Azure, he will certainly not spare the life of such a huge threat.

Using incentives, the Azure is not in a favorable position.

Even though they were bound by friendship, their meeting was merely a fleeting encounter.

If they were to turn against him, it would plunge him and the Azure into an abyss of no return, completely ruining their future.

Now, Jing Sheng only has two choices.

You either serve the Blue from the bottom of your heart, or you'll be executed on the spot.

Such a monster must never be allowed to return to the mountains.

The next topic concerned him and the lives of all the prisoners of war in White Raven.

He Feng then put on an extremely kind smile, creating an atmosphere of great amiability, and even placed his right hand on Jing Sheng's shoulder.

Try to blur the sense of distance between the two as much as possible, and deliberately bring them closer.

All of this truly touched Jing Sheng deeply.

Seeing He Feng's extremely appreciative attitude, he inexplicably felt a surge of arrogance and inflated ego.

After years of wandering and being unappreciated, he unexpectedly met a kindred spirit and a wise leader when he was in dire straits.

The resentment of unfulfilled ambitions is washed away, replaced by a sense of peace and acceptance.

Isn't all of this preordained?

Is this what they mean by putting yourself in a life-or-death situation and then finding a way out?

Before he knew it, he was so overwhelmed with joy that his mind went blank, and as he grinned from ear to ear, tears streamed down his face.

But his genius and pride quickly made him wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his elbow.

Tears only have meaning when they fall on the enemy.

At this point, Jing Sheng had already assumed that He Feng treated him as a trusted subordinate, and naturally forgot all about the hierarchy between ruler and subject.

Even, under He Feng's prompting, he inexplicably moved his left arm and put it on He Feng's shoulder, laughing uncontrollably.

They were as close as brothers who hadn't seen each other for many years, as if they were about to pour out all the bitterness they had endured over the years.

"I've been fortunate enough to meet a benefactor who appreciates my talent, and this benefactor is completely in awe of my abilities." Jing Sheng thought to himself, completely oblivious to the strangeness of the situation, and instead believing it to be a sign of trust.

Dude, why are you lying to your brothers?

He Feng originally planned to take a long-term approach and use the sweet words and promises of being given important responsibilities to test the guy's inner world.

But seeing the other party's bewitched appearance and their excitement that had already been dragged into the state, He Feng was somewhat unable to handle it.

He doesn't understand human relationships and social dynamics, no wonder he's stuck in a rut, stuck in the middle and can only be a lowly soldier.

But that's good, because it makes it easier to explore the inner world of such people.

Now that the fish had taken the bait, He Feng asked with a hidden glint of concern.

"Well, Brother Jingsheng, do you want to go back to White Crow City?"

"Maybe!" Jing Sheng's eyes curved slightly as he pulled He Feng even closer.

This man was completely unaware that his reckless words had committed a grave offense and touched He Feng's sore spot!

"Well then, in that case I can only..." He Feng's smile froze abruptly as he slowly placed his right hand on the scabbard of the icy blade on his belt.

With one strike, he could guarantee a fatal blow, giving the opponent an explanation.

He Feng pressed his body close to the carotid artery, ensuring that he could accurately slash the carotid artery so that the victim would die quickly enough without suffering.

Those watching from the sidelines unknowingly sensed a barely perceptible murderous intent, and all of them lowered their heads, not daring to utter a word.

Amidst this, Jing Sheng, out of place with the atmosphere, continued his unfinished ramblings with a sly expression.

"The art of war is based on deception. I will provide false information while ensuring my own safety, so that the Azure will have enough time to develop its power."

After all, my lord, you have shown me great kindness.

He abruptly withdrew his killing intent, chuckled, and patted Jing Sheng a few times in admiration before leisurely sheathing his nearly drawn blade.

"From this day forward, you will officially assume command of the newly formed fleet of my Azure. Do you have any objections?"

Jing Sheng's eyes trembled slightly, then he quickly put his arms around Jing Sheng's back and shoulders, squatted down on the ground, and shouted in a deafening voice.

"If the lord does not despise me, I will serve him with utmost loyalty and devotion!"
