"This kid did a good job, he won a battle as soon as he shot, killing more than 40 old hairies, which can be regarded as a good start for us to travel back to 1900. ”

"Well, in fact, victory is still secondary, because although the scale of this battle is not large, Luo Yue did not blindly rely on our superiority in weapons to go head-to-head with Mao Xiao, but first formulated a tactical plan, and then attacked, which is what satisfies me the most. Although our weapons are indeed the most advanced in this era, but our numbers are too small, the number of troops is insufficient, and there is no logistical supply, whether it is bullets or missiles, it is one shot less than one, and the same is true for warships, needless to say, even the fuel is not replenished, don't forget that the warships of this era are still coal-burning, and the regiment must not blindly rely on our existing weapons, but must be based on this era, and this battle has not captured more than 40 rifles? That's the way we should be fighting for now, capturing as many enemy weapons as possible and using them until we can produce them ourselves. ”

"Well, I agree with Lao Xiao's words, weapons have never been the main factor in war, only those who use weapons are the most important, so we must give full play to people's subjective initiative, and we can't rely on advanced weapons, this is also the usual style of our army, and capturing the enemy's weapons to supplement ourselves, this is the glorious tradition of our army, in this era, we still have to insist on playing, don't you say, Lao Qin?"

"What you said is right, but there is the most important point, that is, to win the support of the people, without the support of the people, everything else is floating clouds, whether it is in that era, it is the unchanging truth, so I said that Platoon Commander Luo did a good job in this point, respected the discipline of the masses, and did not get carried away when he won the battle, this is what we must insist on the most. ”

Xia Bohai said with a smile: "What Lao Qin said is right, the situation we are facing now is similar to the situation before we crossed over and before the founding of the People's Republic of China. ”

Xiao Jianjun said: "I don't object to this, but the situation still has to be treated, and we can't copy the previous set, after all, there are still differences in the times, otherwise it would be a mistake of empiricism, just like this time, I beat away Mao Xiao, saved the whole village, and it is not too much to eat a meal in the village, this is also a willing invitation to our soldiers, and having a meal together can deepen our feelings with the people in the village." ”

Qin Zheng smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not so rigid, just now I told Platoon Commander Luo that they can go to eat with confidence, just need to pay." ”

Xia Bohai was a little strange and said, "Paying money? Is the money we came to this era paying RMB? What is the difference between this and playing a white slip?"

Qin Zheng said: "This is what you two haven't noticed, in addition to seizing some weapons in this battle, didn't you also find a lot of silver and copper coins from Mao Xiao's body? ”

After ordering Luo Yue to go into battle, Xia Bohai, Xiao Jianjun, and Qin Zheng on the Kunming ship, as well as Shang Jinfeng, captain of the Kunming ship, and Chu Yaping, commander of the Marine Corps, all gathered in the conference room, and had video contact with Zhang Wei, captain of the Sanya ship, Zhang Guangzhi, captain of the Huaihua ship, Lu Kai, captain of the Changbaishan ship, and Xie Teng, captain of the Taihu ship, and paid attention to the war situation on the shore.

After learning that Luo Yue led the soldiers to defeat the Russian army and achieve victory, everyone was also relieved, although each individual had a greater grasp of this battle, after all, their own side had an absolute advantage in weapons, even if the troops ashore could not withstand it, they could also call for the support of carrier-based helicopters, which could be said to be the chance to win, but first, this was the first battle through the fleet, and the result would directly affect the morale and confidence of the whole army; second, it was also because all the people lacked actual combat experience and did not have a good grasp of the battlefield, so it was inevitable that they would be a little nervous。

At this time, Xia Bohai said: "Although we won this battle, after all, we did not completely annihilate the Russian army, so after the Russian army fled back, it will definitely attract the attention of the defenders at Dagukou, and the battle plan we formulated at the beginning may not be realized." ”

Xiao Jianjun said: "Then use the alternative plan, according to my estimate, after the remnants of the Russian army fled back to Dagukou to report the situation, Dagukou will definitely send most of the army to attack Hejiawan Village, so that the garrison of Dagukou will inevitably be empty, we can just use Hejiawan Village to attract the troops of the Eight-Nation Alliance stationed in Dagukou, and then concentrate our five warships to attack Dagu from the sea and carry out landing operations." ”

Xia Bohai nodded and said, "I think this plan is feasible, but now there is only one platoon of troops in Hejiawan Village, if Dagukou wants to attack Hejiawan Village, the number of troops dispatched will never be less, can a platoon withstand it?"

Xiao Jianjun said: "Then give them more troops and send a company ashore, it should be about the same." ”

Chu Yaping said: "The landing operation needs the Marine Corps, we now only have two battalions plus one company of Marines, which also includes two artillery companies and two machine gun companies, and there are only seven Marine companies, so the strength is not enough, if the strength of Hejiawan Village is increased, it will only weaken the strength of the landing operation, what if the Dagukou side does not send troops to attack Hejiawan Village?"

Xia Bohai said: "This is easy, if the Dagukou side does not send troops to attack Hejiawan Village, then let the troops on the shore attack Dagukou from the shore, which can also contain the strength of Dagukou, so I think it is better not only to send a company, but also to add an artillery platoon and a machine gun platoon to strengthen their long-range strike force." ”

Qin Zheng said: "According to Luo Yue's report, many villagers were injured, as well as the captured Russian prisoners were also wounded, and there will inevitably be casualties in the later tactics, so I suggest that a medical team should also be organized to go ashore." ”

Xiao Jianjun nodded and said: "This is very good, but the top priority now is to figure out the garrison situation at Dagukou, and to park those warships at Dagukou, so as to know yourself and your opponent." As he spoke, he turned to Qin Zheng and said, "Old Qin, have you studied the history of this area, do you know the details of the situation?"

Qin Zheng shook his head and said, " The Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China was basically a land war, but the Eight-Nation Coalition sent warships to participate in the war, but because the Qing government's Beiyang Fleet fled to Shanghai to avoid the war, the actual naval battle never happened, and the larger-scale ship combat operation was the battle between the coalition fleet and the Dagu Fort, and there were 17 coalition warships participating in the service, all of which were small warships under 1,000 tons, but later various countries still successively sent ships to escort the troops to China, but the countries sent were also second- and third-class warships, mainly protective cruisers, of course, there were also a small number of main armored cruisers and battleships, but there were some coming and going, and some warships left after sending the armySome of them are still moored at Dagukou, just like the Japanese fleet we photographed in the morning, so the total number of ships of the Eight-Nation Coalition is not easy to count, and I can't say how many warships are still parked at Dagukou. ”

Chu Yaping said strangely: "Political commissar, wasn't the Beiyang Naval Division wiped out during the First Sino-Japanese War? Why is there still a Beiyang Naval Division at this time?"

Qin Zheng said with a smile: "After the fiasco in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, all the officers and men of the Beiyang Fleet were dismissed, and the Prime Minister's Navy Yamen and the Inner and Outer Naval Academies were all withdrawn. However, with the efforts of a group of far-sighted people, the Qing government still rebuilt the Beiyang Fleet in 1896. In that year, the three Dome cruisers ordered from Germany, the Haichen, Hairong, and Haichou, all had a displacement of 2,950 tons, a speed of 20 knots, and three 150-mm rapid-fire guns, eight 105-mm rapid-fire guns, two 60-mm rapid-fire guns, and one torpedo tube. In 1897, two protective cruisers were ordered in the United Kingdom: Haitian and Haiqi, which were basically built based on the Japanese Yoshino, and their performance and combat effectiveness were roughly equivalent to those of the Yoshino, with a displacement of 4,300 tons and a speed of 24 knots. 2 203-mm guns, 10 120-mm guns, 12 47-mm guns, 4 37-mm guns, 5 torpedo tubes. In addition, four torpedo boats, the Hailong, Haiqing, Haihua, and Haixi, were also purchased, with a full load displacement of 280 tons, a speed of 32 knots, six 47mm rapid-fire guns, and two 356mm torpedo tubes. In addition to the two torpedo boats Feiting and Flying Eagle ordered before the First Sino-Japanese War, and the appointment of Ye Zuqi and Sa Zhenbing, the former generals of the Beiyang Naval Division, and the commander, it can be regarded as the initial scale. ”

When Xia Bohai heard this, he shook his head again and again, and said: "The capital ship has been reduced from 7,000 tons to 4,000 tons, and it seems that the strength of the rebuilt Beiyang Naval Division is not as good as before!"

Xiao Jianjun said: "That can't be helped, I accompanied more than 200 million silver in the First Sino-Japanese War, then I still have the money to buy a ship, and it can be restored to this level, which is already good, and it is really impossible to stop the Eight-Nation Alliance with these five warships." ”

Qin Zheng also nodded, and said: "During the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, Ye Zuqi led the main warships of the Beiyang Naval Division to the south and anchored in Shanghai, and later participated in the southeast protection, but at that time, there were five torpedo boats, Hailong, Haiqing, Haihua, Haixi, and Feiting, which were moored together at Dagukou for maintenance and repair, and as a result, these five torpedo boats were captured by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and they were divided between Britain, Germany, France, and Russia, of which Russia was divided into two ships. ”

Xia Bohai's face was solemn, and he said: "Comrades, the ship is the national fortune, no matter in that era, it is the unchanging truth, since we have come to this era, we should do something, and we can't let history repeat itself." ”

Xiao Jianjun said: "According to Lao Qin's introduction, I suggest that the Yueyang ship be notified immediately and a drone will be dispatched to reconnoiter Dagukou, and in addition, didn't we capture some Russian prisoners? Notify Platoon Commander Luo to interrogate the prisoners and understand the details of Dagukou." ”

Xia Bohai was about to speak, when the guards on one side came over and said, "Report to the commander, there is news from the Yueyang ship." ”
