Chapter 353: Great Victory

Qiongzhou is the place where he started, and it is also the place of revival in the future, of course, Zhao Yu is very concerned about this battle, and this battle can win at least so that Ali Hague can no longer fight the idea of Qiongzhou within the year. And if www.biquge.info loses, then Qiongzhou will face a catastrophe, and the navy will also suffer great losses, and it is not easy to save up these family funds, especially those soldiers who have been trained for a long time. Ships can be grabbed and built when they are gone, but the training of soldiers cannot be put on the battlefield in a day or two.

Zhao Yu also knew that he was a little overly anxious, this battle was an ambush, and he was equipped with a newly developed flowering bomb, and there were thirty dragon ships that could participate in the battle, and the victory was still very large, otherwise he would not rashly approve this battle. But he also knew that there were many factors that affected the outcome of the battle, and a slight carelessness would lead to failure, so he really wanted to go to the battlefield in person and fight side by side with the Qiongzhou Navy.

But Zhao Yu knew that it was difficult to implement this matter, and he would not agree to go by himself, including the Queen Mother, and he would not let himself go to the front in person when he went to Ying Jieyan, so he could only go secretly; Second, Zhang Shijie was alert to his frequent going to sea, worried that he would fish in troubled waters and sneak away, so he transferred Lu Shicheng and Du Hu, who were familiar with him, and replaced them with his personal guard battalion to follow and monitor. And if he wants to get rid of them, he can only secretly kill them, so he will really turn his face with Zhang Shijie, so he can only press it for the time being and run to the open sea to find opportunities......

"Your Majesty, urgent report!" Just as Zhao Hao was meditating, suddenly Ni Liang hurriedly ran over and said.

"Hey, why are you here?" Zhao Yu was very strange, in order to confuse Zhang Shijie, he deliberately let Ni Liang stay behind, but he came.

"Your Majesty, the bureau sent an urgent report, I know that Your Majesty is worried about the matter over there, so I came." Ni Liang still said with a smile on his face.

"Hurry up and rest." Zhao Yu asked him to sit down next to him and let people bring tea and food, Ni Liang, the kid is honest, but he can't say what he does, but he likes such people very much.

"Great victory, great victory, great victory on East China Sea Island, our Qiongzhou army has won!" While arranging Ni Liang, Zhao Hao opened the letter, and there were only a few words on it: Donghaizhou ambushed and won a great victory, destroying more than 400 enemy ships, capturing more than 200 enemy ships, destroying thousands of enemies, and killing the enemy's Jinghu naval army under the command of Samudan and the deputy capital commander Ali. Our army suffered slight losses. He couldn't help but shout.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, another complete victory!" His Majesty's shouting and shouting immediately alarmed the people on board, and they came to congratulate them. However, Lin Zhiwu and the others all felt a little regretful because they couldn't share their worries for the Lord, and a few stupid boys on the boat over there saw that the Bianjing was so lively, and they were stretching their necks to watch, but they didn't know that they had just walked around the ghost gate.

"Everyone, pack your things, and we'll be back immediately!" Zhao Hao knew that this was just a report from the Secretariat to reassure himself, and the detailed battle situation would be reported later. Winning this battle will also change the local situation in Quang Nam, he has to re-evaluate in order to arrange the things in the future, and the slight loss in the back also makes his heart sink, this battle must have paid a certain price, so he has to hurry back and wait for the detailed report......

Two days later, the detailed report of the Battle of Donghai Island was sent to Zhao Yu's desk, which not only included Ying Jieyan's summary of the battle, but also the battle report of Liu Zhu and the various leading forces. He also broke out in a cold sweat after seeing it, this battle can be described as a dangerous victory, but this risk does not come from the enemy, but from his own mistakes.

The whole battle plan seemed to be perfect, when the enemy entered the Sai Wan waterway and suddenly launched an attack, when the enemy retreated after being attacked, the attack of the Destroyer and the Brave Army would disrupt the enemy's formation, and then the army would follow up and annihilate the enemy in the bay. But they didn't expect that the enemy army did not retreat after the attack but wanted to force through, as a result, they blocked the enemy army in the bay, but the shipwreck also blocked the waterway, and they couldn't pursue it if they wanted to, so they were able to drag the enemy army by fighting hard with the Destroying Front Army and the Brave Army, so that Liu Zhu could lead the army into the bay in a roundabout way and complete the task of annihilating the enemy's naval army.

Therefore, the first half of the battle was dull and disorganized, and only Chen Renweng's department was still a bright spot. Knowing that he was fighting alone, he cooperated with the rear army landing troops to stabilize the situation and successfully left the enemy in the bay. Later, the rear army was unable to support, and they did not stand still, but used the skinning tactics to continue to weaken the enemy army and hold the enemy army in this way. In particular, after discovering that the enemy had signs of breaking through, he immediately divided his troops to fight with the enemy, and entangled the handsome ship so that the enemy could not get out for a while, and then bought enough time for Liu Zhu's brigade. However, from Zhao Hao's point of view, the team that came was more like they came to clean up the battlefield.

In this operation, the Qiongzhou Navy lost more than 40 warships and more than 2,000 casualties. In Zhao Hao's view, such a large loss could be avoided, especially Dong Yicheng's army, which relied on the superiority of equipment to deal a heavy blow to the enemy's front army at the beginning of the war, and then recklessly rushed into the enemy's ships to fight with the enemy in close quarters, resulting in great losses, and the casualties of his troops alone accounted for sixty percent of the total losses. In addition to the solid advantages of the dragon boats themselves, the ability of the commanders and the quality of the officers and men were also the reasons for their very small losses.

Liu Zhu, as the commander of the entire campaign, also made a major mistake, precisely because he was not meticulous in reconnaissance before the battle and misjudged the situation between the two sides, which led to the waterway being blocked after the battle began, and the army could only watch the excitement and could not participate in the battle at all. After that, although he took the opportunity to make a quick decision and joined the battle by detouring, he had lost the best opportunity to destroy the enemy, and the ambush war had become a stalemate. This battle dragged mud and water, and it was sparse. However, the battle he commanded also had special characteristics, such as sending infantry troops to land on the island first on a rainy night to attack the enemy's outposts to clear the hidden obstacles, and arranging rocket launchers on the island to form a three-sided siege against the enemy in coordination with the naval army, which can be called a creative deployment.

After some analysis, in addition to rewarding meritorious service in the edict, Zhao Yu also ordered Liu Zhu and Dong Yicheng to be punished, and told all armies to take warning, and also ordered all departments to sum up experience, find out the mistakes in the battle, deeply review and make relevant measures. Although everyone is still cautious after His Majesty's victory, almost to the point of paranoia, although there are some complaints, they also know that Qiongzhou is His Majesty's last line of defense, and it is by no means a joke that the country will be destroyed as long as it fails once, so it is not a joke to re-summarize the gains and losses of this battle from top to bottom, and learn lessons from it......
