Chapter 288: Peak Loop Turn
As the saying goes, striking iron also has to be hard, and if you want to make people respect and face it, you don't rely on language, but hard power!
The Eastern Jin Dynasty has not faced up to the strength of the Han Dynasty, and has the mentality that you can be Ren Yuan and Ren Bian if you want to handle it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBecause they think that the Han Department is weak and dispensable, they can engage in conspiracies in Qingzhou and be unscrupulous. The large fleet of the Han Department came over, and they were thinking about how to get a Han ship, didn't they say that they would treat each other well and establish friendship, but also because they felt that they could take the Han Department at will?
In addition to Ji Chang's own lack of a good impression of the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ Court, it is a necessary trial voyage for a single ship to break in, after all, the Han Department has never been to the Yangtze River, let alone sail into the Yangtze River waterway. It is absolutely necessary to go on a trial voyage with one ship, and it is a brain disease for the whole fleet to break into it before the sea trial.
Speaking of which, doesn't the fleet need to be on trial voyage before it goes in? Therefore, no matter who Ji Chang or someone in the Han Fleet, they had thought that the Eastern Jin Dynasty Navy would intercept it, but they really didn't expect it to be such a big scene.
The Han Ministry has not yet established a country, but the Han Ministry is an independent force, and it does not need to obey which side it is, but what are those people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty doing? They treat Hanbu as a dog's leg at the bottom, without any respect and without mention, and they seem extremely arrogant in their actions.
"Really?" Ji Chang received a report that Fu Wei's ship broke through the first interception line of the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army, but it was the second line that stood in front of it. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "No one on the side of the small ~ Chao~ court wants to communicate?" ”
Anyway, Fu Wei's report did not point out the intention of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to communicate with the small ~ dynasty ~ court, the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army increased the number of encirclement ships, and the ships dispatched by the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army became larger and larger.
"Brutal wants to force a halt to capture?" Ji Chang smiled, and he said mockingly: "Sure enough, it's a bunch of rat-eyed people!" ”
There is nothing wrong with it, it is not difficult to judge what the intentions of the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ Court, they are very eager to get a ship for sea navigation, and many envoys will ask for it when they meet Liu Yan in the past, or so taken for granted, like the extreme Han Department to give the ship is a matter of course, not to give it is against the norm, putting on a look of Lao Tzu is Zhengshuo, even if he fled to the south of the Yangtze River, it is still Zhengshuo's face.
What they can't get from their mouths, after the arrival of the Hanbu Grand Fleet, they originally wanted to rely on relatively mild means to get one, but Ji Chang let the fleet anchor overseas.
The so-called mildness should be a deception, and if you can't deceive, you will take advantage of it?
"The second fleet is ready to defend the first."
"No!"
"Prepare the third batch of fleets, and after confirming that Shijie Zhao's army is attracted, look for an opportunity to land."
"No!"
Now there is no need to have a big war with the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty~ Court, Qingzhou's Changguang County and Dongmu County are entering a period of rapid development, and there is a constant threat from Shijie Zhao from the two directions of Jizhou and Yanzhou, in order to seek greater strategic space to seize the coastal area of Xuzhou is a serious matter.
The trade between the Han Department and the Shijie Zhao State was broken, and if they wanted to open up the trade with the Tuoba Dynasty, Murong Yanguo was used as a roadblock, and the trade with Murong Yanguo was rejected by Liu Yan, so it was necessary to open a new market south of the Yangtze River.
The Han army wanted to capture the coastal area of Xuzhou, and with the annihilation of the Xuzhou army of Shijie Zhao, it was already extremely simple. At this stage, there are not many battle plans of the Han Army, and the first is to take the Shizun training troops on the side of Pengcheng, and the second is to seize the ferry port near Yangzhou on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
At present, there is a Han army on land sweeping south, and it will soon enter the Jianghuai region. Due to the limitations of the terrain in the Jianghuai region, the Han army advanced from the land, even with the assistance of boats and ships, the speed of the army's advance was really not fast.
The sooner the local Xuzhou Dihan Department is taken, the more favorable the next arrangement will be, just when the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ court invited the fleet to the south, then quickly land from the south, and the landing force to take the Jiangdu and Jiangshui Temple is equivalent to having a ready-made river defense fortress on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and then it is better to establish a base in the next transaction with the south of the Yangtze River There is more convenience.
What the? What if the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ Court did not trade with the Han Dynasty? Is it really the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ Court that side is highly centralized? In fact, it is the gate valve and the family who have the final say, and the Sima royal family is a signboard.
Fu Wei began to adapt after two consecutive impacts. He was still very worried about whether the ship would be damaged, and after repeated inquiries, he ran down to the cabin to see, and there was not even a trace of crack in the impact site, which can be regarded as a relief.
In other words, the shipbuilding of the Han Department is very strict, and the keel is basically a giant wood in the east of Liao1, but there is no splicing. In addition, because it is built using a ship model, the structure of the ship and the keel are fully occlusive, as long as there is no problem with the keel, at most the bulkhead is slightly damaged.
The use of hardwood and soaking in tung oil can make the wood harder, and the construction of a ship is a few necessary processes, and the ship built in strict accordance with the procedure generally does not appear too fragile.
After two frontal impacts, the Kirk sailing boat under Fu Wei's feet only left some impact scratches on the front belly, and even the bulkhead did not loosen after inspection, which means that it is a qualified ship.
In fact, it doesn't matter if there is a crack and a water leak, if the emergency reinforcement is not possible, remove an isolation water tank, although it will increase the load and slow down the speed, but if you want to sink for a while, it is a little difficult.
"Left Full Rudder !!"
This single Kirk sailing ship scurried left and right on the river, its four sails could make it reach a speed of five knots, plus the sailors used the oars to add strength, there was no difficulty in running to more than six knots, resulting in the fact that the pursuing Eastern Jin Dynasty naval ships could be left behind at will.
A big detour, the ship tilted to divert the course, after a string of ships, the ships of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Navy were thrown far away, from the angle of Fu Wei, the front should be the north bank of the Yangtze River, where there are scattered some people from the Zhao Kingdom to watch the excitement.
On the north bank of the Yangtze River, there are indeed many people from Shijie Zhao who are watching the excitement, and it seems that it should be people like the coastal defense force. They don't seem to be organized, they just look at the level of familiarity and get together, and they will make noise from time to time.
[Has the second fleet come?] Fu Wei couldn't see the east side from his angle, and he pondered: [Am I just playing hide and seek with the Jin army's navy? 】
The Jin navy has lost three ships, none of which are large in tonnage, two of which were directly sunk, and one of which was hit by their own damaged ships and overturned. There is a rescue operation going on over there, and the boat is constantly picking up the soldiers who have fallen into the water around the location of the sunken ship, but I don't know how many dead and injured the three ships are?
The second fleet has entered the Yangtze River waterway, numbering six Kirk sailboats, their entry has made the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army highly nervous, the south bank of the Yangtze River resounded with the sound of war drums, those civilians who had been watching happily were evacuated, and some coastal defense troops were driven from everywhere.
"They want to go to war?" Yu Bing was a little confused, more puzzled: "Could it be ......?"
What's up? According to Yu Bing's guess, it is estimated that some gate valves and families south of the Yangtze River have made ghosts in Qingzhou and angered Liu Yan, and they will come with a strong anger this time.
After the second batch of six Kirk galleons, the third fleet was entered, which was at least thirty warships and nearly fifty transports, which looked a little dense and murderous.
Fu Wei's ship was already sailing towards the mouth of the Yangtze River, that is, the eastern channel, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval ships behind followed for a short distance and stopped.
Bursts of "dong dong" war drums came from the sea, and then all the ships of the Han Department that entered the Yangtze River waterway also beat the war drums, together with the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army and coastal defense troops beat the war drums, causing the war drums to shake the sky at the mouth of the Yangtze River.
"Is the Han army really going to war with the Jin army?" Guo Xiang has always been watching jokes, he is somewhat familiar with the navy, and he almost knows what warships the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army has, but he sees the Han Navy in a fog. That was the inevitable result of the different ship systems, which led him to laugh when he saw a large number of Han fleets entering the mouth of the Yangtze River: "It's the best to fight, and whoever dies will make us happy." ”
Many of the generals of Shijie Zhao Jun were all "hahaha", laughing and pandering.
"But ......," Guo Xiang thought for a while and said, "we can't take it lightly. He put away his smile and ordered: "Let the security forces make corresponding defensive preparations!" ”
On the other side, when Yu Bing was wondering if he was going to go to war, the people sent by Ji Chang arrived.
"Our army will land directly on the north bank of the Yangtze River, if the Jin army wants to kill thieves, they can come!"
Just such a sentence made the generals on the Eastern Jin Dynasty stunned for a while, and then the heart that hung in his throat was put back again.
Of course, those generals on the side of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were not without doubts about such a big fanfare of the Han Dynasty, but they could at least judge that there would be friction, but a big war was a bit unlikely.
The reason is quite simple, the Eastern Jin Dynasty does not rely on a war to conquer, only relying on the naval army to conquer the Eastern Jin Dynasty is even more impossible, what is needed is to advance by land and water, at least an army of more than 100,000, less than 100,000 Even if it can gain a firm foothold on the south bank of the Yangtze River, it will inevitably be a great war next.
Want to kill Jiankang directly after landing? That's actually thinking too much. The Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ Court has always been facing the threat of the Hu people in the north, and the roads to Jiankang have been established without knowing how many passes and strongholds, and then the 100,000 naval troops of the Eastern Jin Dynasty are definitely not raising and eating white rice, and if they do not solve the 100,000 naval army, what if they land on the south bank?
However, then again, if Liu Yan is ruthless and directly "storm the navy" thousands of warships to see the Yangtze River, let alone 100,000 sailors, what if it is hundreds of thousands of sailors. It's just that Liu Yan hasn't even done it in the Central Plains now, how could he go south of the Yangtze River to play with the Eastern Jin Dynasty ~ Dynasty ~ Court?
In the third and fourth batches, more and more Han warships entered the Yangtze River waterway, and the large-scale actions caused the Eastern Jin Dynasty naval army to be ready for action, such as arranging assault boats filled with fire oil and firewood, and mobilizing enough bed crossbows to the shore.
The Yangtze River waterway flows from west to east, and the boats set fire to the inland waterways, as long as there are enough of them to scare the downstream boats.
A large number of fleets entered the Yangtze River waterway, Guo Xiang sensed the slightest wrong, he once again ordered the security troops to prepare, in addition to the shore defense troops, the small number but very present Shijie naval army also began to prepare for battle.
Coincidentally, Guo Xiang also ordered the preparation of fireboats, and ordered that if the Han fleet showed signs of landing, the ships would be set on fire immediately.
Ji Chang actually didn't need to inform the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but one of the goals of their coming this time was to make the Eastern Jin Dynasty Xiao~Chao~ Ting realize the strength of the Han army, so naturally it was to let the generals of the Eastern Jin Dynasty take a good look, and it was unnecessary to make sudden moves, what was needed was a grand trend.
"Pioneer ship, seize the upstream and set up the Hengjiang Iron Cable!"
Although Hanbu is playing with sea boats, since he has arrived, how can he not make relevant plans and preparations in advance?
The iron cable can be used to block, of course, it can block the passing ships, and the number of draft ships you want to stop depends entirely on how tight the iron cable is pulled.
"If it weren't for the Eastern Jin Dynasty Xiao~Chao~Court to see our strength, where would it be inappropriate to land?" Ji Chang is telling the truth: "We came to the Yangtze River waterway and landed again, just to let them recognize the facts. ”
There are pioneer ships that rush at high speed, and when they reach a suitable position, they begin to place the iron cables, and then the two ships cooperate to stretch the iron cables to both sides.
The Eastern Jin Dynasty still had a skeptical attitude towards the Han Ministry to land on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
"I have a rough idea of what Hanbe means." Yu Bing said with a smile: "All the actions are to let us know the current situation. ”
On that side, the ships of the Han Department had begun to approach the north bank of the Yangtze River, and after they entered the firing range, they began to shoot arrows at any target that could be attacked, whether it was a bed crossbow and a strong crossbow together, and instantly let the Shijie Zhao army on the shore know what was going to happen.
When the Hanbu ships began to manipulate the iron rope across the river, Guo Xiang had already ordered the ships upstream to ignite and release, but it was one thing to give an order, and another thing to convey the order in place.
Yu Yi thought for a long time with a calm face, and suggested: "Let's send a navy." ”
The Eastern Jin Dynasty Navy gathered a large number of warships in this area, and some of the soldiers in the Navy were also ready to attack. They were originally a fleet to defend the Han Army, and they may also have been used to participate in the attack on the Shijie Zhao army.
For the naval army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, crossing the river was actually a very frequent thing, and they relied on the advantages of the naval army to cross the river and fight more than once, but the scale was generally small.
"Nope." Yu Bing smiled playfully: "Since the Han Department wants to show its strength, let them show it, and observe what is going on with the Han Department's water army." ”
…… Divide... Cut... Line......
