Chapter 593: Assembly Number: Complications Erupt in Full Force
During this period of time, the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the Korean Strait were all filled with Jurchen and high-ranking warships.
The Great Demon King didn't gloat, but really felt a nerve tingling. It is a real pain on the skin, and it seems that the three steam-turbine version frigates that can be launched into service in half a month at most, these warships can turn the situation of the entire East China Sea in one fell swoop, but because of an omission, they were taken away by the Koreans who suddenly entered the war.
Now this batch of frigates cannot be put into service, and the only two frigates in the gasoline version, the Goryeo Jurchens have also figured out the operational laws of the gasoline version of the frigates, and under the limited combat range, it is now estimated that the Nagasaki Song Concession is also dangerous.
These bills are going to be taken back sooner or later.
These deranged pirates! They thought that by destroying half of the Dengzhou shipyard and destroying the three Navy frigates that were about to enter service, they would be able to dominate the East China Sea? Then it can only be said that they don't know anything about power!
God bless the Great Song Dynasty, Haizhou Shipyard absorbed the talents and industries transferred from Beijing at that time, and it was even more ferocious, and it was indeed a little slower than the production capacity of Dengzhou Shipyard, but by next summer at the latest, a new version of the frigate should be able to enter the navy service.
A long time ago, the Great Demon King committed a crime against the wind and had already separated the eggs in the basket, and now the order for the five steam turbine version frigates of the Beijing Garrison Division has been started at the same time and has been on the ground for a month.
In addition, the Ye family's shipyards in Mingzhou and Cao Ji's shipyards in Suzhou were almost completed last month, and they are now receiving orders for various civilian ships. Just wait for the situation to change greatly, all of these production capacity can be transferred to military supply, assuming that the Great Demon King is in power and immediately enters the world war mobilization, the current Great Song Dynasty has the ability to produce at least sixty frigates per year.
With such a production capacity, if only naval warfare is fought, theoretically there is still room for single-handedly fighting the whole world.
But now it's just a matter of waiting......
On October 20, Wang Gongchen's telegram reached the imperial court: Dengzhou's economy, trade, and so on were cut off, the people began to flee, fishermen were constantly killed, and all the engineering boats of the Industrial Department were crawling and could not go to sea to support the construction of Nagasaki.
Now Wang Gongchen is rolling all over the ground, asking for reinforcements from the imperial court.
But at this time, the Great Song Dynasty with Han Qi as the prime minister suddenly found that there was no support, and there was no longer any strength to send to Dengzhou.
As Shenji Yan said, one step is slow, and now the Great Song Dynasty as a whole has fallen into a situation of having a headache and a pain in the feet. As early as half a month ago, Zhanzhao Bai Yutang had confirmed that something had happened in the southeastern region, and the phenomenon of cult brainwashing was already very serious in the southeast. The beheading of a few leaders alone could not solve the current problem, and they sent a total of three letters to the imperial court, demanding military authorization and early suppression of possible cultist rebellions.
But such a proposal was shelved.
Based on Zhanzhao Bai Yutang, he should not have appeared in the southeast, but he rashly went over to make trouble, which seemed to be the arrangement of the Great Demon King.
In addition, based on the relatively sensitive "correctness of the legal system" in the Great Song Dynasty, it is impossible for the government that adopts a conservative strategy to authorize the escalation of "criminal cases" into military counterinsurgency actions until a result is reached.
However, now there is real chaos, and there have been many "armed fights involving hundreds of people" in the southeast, which are basically triggered by religious and clan conflicts. They haven't rebelled against the government for the time being, but they are already a big mess, and they don't know what will happen if they evolve.
In this way, the power of the five southeastern roads is limited and cannot be easily migrated.
At the same time, now all the forces of the north exist in order to deal with the Liao State rally. In Han Qi's eyes, the Koreans could not die if they participated in the Great Song Dynasty, but if something happened to the north, the Great Song would die. Therefore, the damage is light, and the court can only explain to Wang Gongchen: there is no support.
In such a short period of time, Han Qi instantly seemed to be several years old.
Han Qi couldn't be discouraged when he was in front of people, and he still acted like he was tough. Only Zhao Zongshi found that the old man cried in the dead of night, just like when he came back after the defeat of Haoshuichuan and the annihilation of the whole army, when he came back to face the tears of his family who died in battle, Han Qi also cried at that time, and half of his hair turned white on the spot.
Regret not being at the beginning!
Just because he felt that the action was too big and unnecessary, he ignored Wang Yan's military policy suggestion of "the southeast five-way defense change", and ignored the implementation of the Dengzhou defense plan to strengthen the special period!
Now that I think about it, Han Qi has to admit that he blamed Wang Yan for his mistakes, he didn't do it all because of personal grievances and the court. His so-called suggestion looked like he was against Han Qi, but it was actually a kind of loyalty.
The current situation in the southeast, the reason why there are "commandos" who have beheaded the bandit leaders non-stop, and there is still chaos, is because the freezing three feet is not a day's cold. The garrison has not changed its guard for too long, and those who collect money collect money, and those who pull the bias frame have adapted to the clan and religious water and soil environment in the southeast, so there is serious indulgence and inaction.
With the indulgence of the government and the garrison, even without the help of evil bandits, it gradually increased the friction between uncontrolled religions and clans.
It's always the old driver who rolls over. Novices stumble very poorly, but because of caution and timidity, there are often small problems, but there are no major problems. That's it.
Because the military leaders of the Southeast Fifth Road have adapted to the general environment of religion and clan tearing, just like the old driver thinks that he can drive faster and steady, so something happened.
If you follow the advice of the Great Demon King earlier, seize the opportunity to change the defense of the Southeast Fifth Road, and the new army will not be familiar with them with anyone after entering, as long as you are cautious and careful to maintain a novice mentality, the Southeast will naturally not be chaotic, at least it can be delayed.
But obviously, the fact that there are large fights everywhere in the southeast is no longer taken into account. It can be expected that it will not be able to calm down in a short period of time, but it will be trapped in the military strength of the Southeast Fifth Route and cannot be moved.
The place can't be calmed down for the time being, just because the guard has not been changed.
According to the theory of Shenjiyan, it is not that they are not forbidden troops, but they have been rooted in the southeast for a long time, and they have adapted to the clan and religion, and the clan and religion have also adapted to them. This is called drug resistance in later medical terms.
Sometimes it has nothing to do with the grade of the drug, taking this medicine does not work, and changing to the same level of antibiotic will take effect immediately. This is not to say how powerful the new drugs are, but that the germs are not familiar with these "new troops" and do not understand their methods, tempers, and tactics.
In fact, this is the meaning of the change of defense of the army.
The armed forces of the central government must not be able to adapt to the local water and soil, and the local water and soil must not be adapted to the central army.
Now it is clear that a good opportunity to change the defense and maintain stability has been missed. Then the only way to do this is to use the obviously drug-resistant veterans to hold on to the southeast.
Otherwise, if the army is forcibly withdrawn and replaced now, the southeast and fifth roads will immediately enter a big movement, which is to be expected.
So when Zhao Zongshi came to ask for a plan, Wang Yan asserted: The southeast can only be like this for the time being, and it will not really fall into chaos, but there must be no large-scale garrison evacuation, and this situation must be maintained, relying on the immunity generated by Confucianism in the southeast, and relying on the relatively young vitality of the Great Song Dynasty regime to slowly calm down.
In addition, Wang Yan had no better way to deal with it.
In fact, Zhanzhao Bai Yutang has already made Liu Ningjing and Fang La's teachers and uncles suddenly. But now they are still tracking down another group of cultists.
The occurrence of the southeast incident is by no means accidental, it is obvious that the traditional religion and clan division in the southeast have been used, and Zhanzhao's letter has been revealed: many traces of the Great Tibetan Ming King, the Xingzhu Sea, and the Xixia Yipintang have appeared in the southeast region.
When the establishment faction like Zhanzhao has already participated in the beheading operation and thinks that the problem is not small, it obviously shows how strong the latent factor of the disease in the southeast is.
Yes, this time the old immortals of the stars are really in the Central Plains, whether it is really the magic power of the boundless big Yan I don't know, but they have already brought complications from the Great Song Dynasty at this moment. These terrorists are really capable.
Bai Yutang sent a letter asking her husband to decisively increase support.
But Wang Yan replied: There is no support, you are the support of the Southeast Fifth Road.
Because of this critical period, Cao Qing was ordered to rush to Haizhou with the Great Demon King's personal guards. Her responsibility is to protect the Haizhou shipyard from a "terrorist attack". Otherwise, now the frigates of the Dengzhou shipyard have been destroyed and cannot be put into service. If something happens to the Haizhou Shipyard, then the basic pill of the Great Song Dynasty's East China Sea strategy will not be able to breathe for two years.
In view of the deployment mistakes of the imperial court in the early days, the navy now needs to fight in a more difficult environment, and I hope that Chen Ergou will not have any more moths.
Manager Chen, who is known as a sewing machine as fast as the wind, is also old and unable to support the southeast.
At this time, the capital was also in chaos, and he needed to stay in Tokyo. And Uncle Liao, who is known as an immovable mountain, has to fully assume the responsibility of protecting his family. General Mu Guiying, as a symbol of "the first warrior of the Great Song Army", her work during this period was also very important, and she could not leave her post without permission.
So it's not surprising, just like the entire Great Song Dynasty strategy, the big demon king told the child and her mother: there will be no more support, everyone has a position in a war, and everyone wants to support, but even the landlord's family has no surplus food. That's the position between you and Zhanzhao, don't come back if you lose it. On the battlefield is a warrior, don't complain......
On 3 November, the situation deteriorated again.
In addition to the fact that more and more merchant ships were attacked, so that no one in the Song Kingdom dared to go to sea now, at the same time, the harassment along the coast of Wajima was becoming more and more serious.
Even more deadly: one of the frigates of the Great Song Navy was defeated! Sinking in the Yellow Sea, all the officers and men in the battleship were martyred!
Chen Ergou, the political commissar of the Navy, sent a message to the Privy Council asking for support, saying that if there is no new naval force input, the East China Sea strategy will be completely defeated.
This is the autumn of the crisis of survival!
At this time, Zhao Zongshi and Han Qi did not blame Wang Yan anymore. It can be said that the situation in the East China Sea was initiated by Wang Yan himself. Under normal circumstances, under the current situation, Han Qi would definitely comment on Wang Yan's deployment in the East China Sea at that time, and let him take the blame for the defeat of the navy.
But now that there is a fire in the southeast backyard, the Great Demon King correctly predicted, and the cardinal government has not done anything, no one is qualified to criticize Wang Yan's strategic thinking.
And this naval defeat is too shocking.
The root cause was a mechanical failure, which caused the Navy No. 2 battleship to stop and lose power. The No. 2 ship released a fireworks distress signal, but Chen Ergou's department was too far away to rescue.
In the end, they were surrounded by many Goryeo and Jurchen warships, and they used the directions that the artillery could not take care of to make tactical advances, and they finally boarded the naval warship.
Unable to defeat them, and not wanting the frigate to fall into the hands of the enemy, they chose to ignite the fuel tank and blow themselves up. As a result, the frigate, more than 100 Song navies, and more than 100 enemies who boarded the battleships were all destroyed.
Later, Chen Ergou's flagship arrived to disperse the enemy warship and rescued two surviving naval soldiers from the sea who were badly burned.
This was the first defeat of the Great Song Navy.
When they received the report, Han Qi and Zhao Zongshi couldn't imagine that such a navy could be from the waste material of the Infantry Division? This is clearly the bloodline of the Funing New Army.
This happens to be the ability and banner of the Great Demon King.
No one can understand that after being brainwashed and ignited by the Great Demon King, under the leadership of several instructors and General Chen Ergou, the war has been fought until now but it has completed its transformation.
Han Qi and Zhao Zongshi also felt very angry about this, this is the Demon King's Spirit Banner, they are the dark knights of the East China Sea......
