Chapter 131: Storm and Evil Three

The transport ships of the Koreans were in the middle of the fleet, and as soon as the Koreans fled, they immediately disrupted the position of the Xia army's naval division.

The Koreans were extremely panicked, and even if they fled, there was no unified direction, and there were all directions in the southeast, northwest, and northwest, and in this sudden situation, Nguyen Jin's command ability was somewhat deficient, and in addition to this situation, the situation was completely out of control.

It is not too wide in the sea, one is chaotic, the ship is mixed with each other, and it is not clear whether we are friends or foes.

The ships of the Qing army and the ships of the Xia army were almost fully engaged, but the ships of the Xia army had a feeling of being powerful but not needed.

The ships that wanted to come forward to support were blocked by the chaotic ships of the North Koreans.

I could only listen to the sound of heavy artillery fire here through the boat.

Even a detour is not too feasible, there are three or five islands in the west, and the coastline in the east, and the two sides are sandwiched, this sea lane is enough on weekdays, but at this time, more than 100 ships are mixed together, and it is very aggrieved.

If you want to make a detour, I'm afraid you have to bypass these three islands.

By then, I'm afraid the winner will already be decided here.

In this way, the Qing army became more and more fierce, and they all had desperate thoughts from Huang Wu down, and regarded the Xia Army Sailor as a flood beast, but they never expected that this light blow found that the Xia Army did not seem to be so terrible, and they had the upper hand.

For a while, the adrenaline hormones skyrocketed, and they didn't need Huang Wu's orders at all, all of them were desperate, one by one, shirtless, firing guns, firing cannons, firing cannons.

Ruan Jin stood at the bow of the boat, and for a moment felt that the silver teeth were crushed, and hatred went to the bone marrow.

Looking at it from his angle, he saw that in the strait, which was not very wide, gunpowder smoke rose one after another, and it seemed that a thin sea fog was spread over the entire sea. I could only see one ship after another, either fighting hard or fleeing in a hurry.

But it was not clear what the situation was on board.

Like a little flame falling into the oil field, Ruan Jin's heart was furious. This anger came at the Qing army, at the Koreans, at the soldiers who were not able to do it below, and at himself.

Since Ruan Jin followed Zhang Xuan, he had never felt so powerless except for dealing with the Zheng Clan's water master.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Order, North Korean ships everywhere quickly get out of the way, otherwise the ships behind can open fire." ”

"Yes." Ruan Yulang didn't dare to refute, and immediately agreed, and passed the order through the flag.

Ruan Jin immediately took off his robe and said, "Order, the whole army will move forward, use me as the arrow, and fight hand-to-hand with the enemy ship." ”

Ruan Jin saw clearly that the Qing army had the greatest advantage

, that is, there are more artillery than the Xia army's artillery. But the rush was too fierce, and in order to give full play to the maximum advantage of the artillery, Huang Wu almost let the ship advance to a distance of several zhang, and within such a distance, although the artillery was the most powerful, almost a single shot could penetrate the sides of the ship.

But such a distance also makes it possible to jump into a gang.

If Ruan is allowed to come in and choose, artillery combat is actually a combat mode that he is not familiar with, and the skills that many people are good at are all developed in their youth. Just like Ruan Jin, he has been fighting at sea for half his life, fighting at sea, jumping in hand-to-hand combat, for him, it is simply commonplace.

This is familiar to the bone marrow.

Even if you dream about it, you can't forget it.

Although now Zhang Xuan has been committed to changing the mode of naval warfare, changing the mode of hand-to-hand combat to the mode of artillery warfare. Ruan Jin also gladly accepted.

But when it came to the critical moment, what he thought of was not how to organize artillery, but rushed up to hand-to-hand combat, which was of course due to the fact that although the total number of artillery of the Xia army was not lower than that of the Qing army, it was scattered on dozens of ships, but it was not as good as the gathering of artillery of the Qing army.

It was also Ruan Jin's instinctive decision.

However, Nguyen's move was not without effect.

Ruan Jinzao fought hard to move forward, at least stabilizing the morale of the army.

From the day the Zhejiang Navy Division was formed, Ruan Jin was the commander, and it can be said that the Zhejiang Navy Division was established by Ruan Jin one by one, and his prestige in the army was not comparable to others. Since he was charging forward, the panic in the army was suddenly swept away.

Even many North Koreans have stabilized their minds.

Of course, some of the North Koreans were still panicked and were suddenly shelled.

Not the Qing army, but the Xia army.

However, there is also a side effect. That is, Nguyen Jin gave up command.

Ruan Jin is ready to engage the Qing army, how can he take over the command of the entire battlefield? The battlefield is plunged into a melee.

For a while, the two sides were at a stalemate.

Although the Qing army had many artillery, after all, there were few people and few ships, and the Xia army had many experienced men and heavy strength, and after losing several ships, they still rushed up one ship after another, and now the ships on both sides have no speed at all. It's all drifting along the water, focusing on the engagement.

It's just that even so, Xia Jun's situation is not so easy to recover.

The Qing army has already made a good move, but the Xia army has such and such shortcomings, but it cannot be changed for a while.

Ruan Jin saw clearly, he now had two choices.

If he retreated, it would be impossible for the Qing army to leave him, maybe those Koreans could not withdraw, but other ships could withdraw. In this way, it only takes a few days of cultivation to make a comeback and fight, and it is already known

The bottom of the Qing army's water division was once again fighting, and Ruan Jin was confident that the Qing army's water division would not be able to take advantage.

But Ruan Jin didn't want that.

The Xia Army's sailors have never been defeated, the southerners are good at ships, and the northerners are good at horses, this is known to the world, Ruan Jin is not willing to fall into his hands in this first defeat, and the current situation is not without room for recovery.

Ruan Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw clearly. The most fierce ship, with a large flag inlaid with gold "yellow" characters on it, remembered the information from the north, and immediately guessed that the person on this boat was the chief general of the Qing army, the traitor Huang Wu of the Zheng family.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first." Ruan Jin said secretly in his heart. With this in mind, he immediately gave the order, and his boat rushed towards Huang Wu's boat. In his mind, killing Huang Wu, the Qing army's sailors were self-defeating.

It's just that on the battlefield, not only Ruan Jin thought so, but Huang Wu also thought so.

Huang Wu has a very clear understanding of the strength of the Qing army's sailors, and the reality of the southern ships and northern horses dooms the northern sailors to make more efforts if they want to defeat the southern sailors, not to mention anything else, just sailors.

If Xia Jun wants to find sailors, he only needs to recruit some pirates and fishermen, and with a little training, he is a good sailor. The north is not without fishermen, but the overall number is too different from that in the south. There are also shipyards, there is no need to find them in the south at all, unless it is to build Western-style warships, the local shipyards are enough, just relax the restrictions.

The number of shipbuilders in the south is limited to the number of big trees, and only if there are enough big trees, it is not very difficult to want to storm ships. But the north is different, even if there is a Qingjiangpu shipyard, it was burned by someone.

Now it's just a matter of gathering some craftsmen.

A shipyard was built in Tianjin before ships could be built.

This is not counting the gap in money and grain between the two sides, just such a gap, the same one million taels of input, can be formed in the south of the sailor, than in the north.

For a long period of time, it is impossible to change the weakness of the Qing army's naval division. So Huang Wu didn't want to let go of any opportunity, because he didn't know that he missed an opportunity today, and he won't have it in the future.

This time, he didn't know how much effort it took to create this surprise attack, which caught Xia Jun off guard. This time the bottom is exposed, and it is almost impossible to find such an opportunity in the future.

Therefore, we must make the most of this opportunity.

And at this moment, the whereabouts of Ruan Jin's boat happened to be seen by Huang Wu, and Huang Wu's decision went without saying, and for a while, the ships of the main generals of the two sides were about to collide together. The soldiers on both sides were excited, as if they were two gamblers who had pressed all the gamblers, their faces were red, their blood was rushing, their eyes were bloodshot, and even their eyes seemed to have become bloody. Just waiting for the opening.

The king sees the king.
