Chapter 650: Great Handsome Look! (Page 1/1)

When he arrived at Marlowe's camp, he saw Marlowe carrying more than 30 sick soldiers outside the camp and leaving them in the mountains and forests.

Marlowe saw Peter pointing to the soldiers who had been carried out of the camp and said, "Only by giving sinners to the gods can the sins be alleviated, otherwise all will be condemned by the gods!" ”

When Peter saw this, he finally realized the seriousness of the situation, and although he did not believe that it was a condemnation of the gods, he knew that it was a contagion.

Marlowe's approach was undoubtedly the right choice, and the isolation of infected soldiers would ensure that more people would survive. Back at his camp, Marlowe finally made up his mind to make a cold-blooded decision.

He told the sick soldiers to return to the city of Resharan on their own for treatment, while the remaining healthy soldiers continued on their way. After this order was given, the morale of the entire team fell to the bottom.

During the night Peter even heard someone crying softly, but he had to make such a decision. With these infected soldiers, whether they advance to Tamsui City or return to Reshalan, they will all be wiped out.

Although to return the sick soldiers to Resharan was to leave the soldiers to fend for themselves, Peter had no choice but to think about the remainder.

Leaving behind the desperate soldiers, Peter led the team onwards. Looking at the desperate eyes, he remembered the terrible Black Death in Europe.

With a disease-ridden epidemic behind him, he didn't dare to bet that the remaining soldiers would catch the dreaded tropical disease if they walked the road again.

For today's plan, there is only one way forward to go, and only when you go all the way to Tamsui City can you take a way to live. As long as the Akito there are defeated, they will leave the terrible jungle by boat.

The march of the whole team with low morale, and every day someone is abandoned. Peter couldn't bear to look at the abandoned soldiers, who would not be able to defeat the Akito even if they reached Tamsui City.

But there was a crazy idea in his mind, the Dutch people had no way to deal with tropical diseases, so what about the Ming people! ……

Weddell had never been so high-spirited, and looking at the dense fleet around him, he felt a sense of pride in his heart.

This is the power of their Westerners, and under so many battleships, any enemy will be crushed into powder. What bullshit Changxing Army, what bullshit giant ship heavy artillery, will be beaten into a pile of rotten wood on the sea under his fleet.

Weddell set out from Manila for one last resupply at the city of Reshalan, south of Taiyuan Island, and immediately set out on the road north.

Except for the occasional dolphin, there was no sign of dolphins along the way. This situation is really abnormal, how can the Taiwan Yuandao Strait, which is a golden waterway, not a single sea ship be able to see it?

Just when Weddell was puzzled, a small boat came from the front of the line, and a large number of sail shadows appeared in front of him. Weddell immediately prepared the entire fleet for battle, and he himself asked the flagship to drive forward to see the ships that appeared.

When he drove the battleship to the front of the group, he was stunned by the scene before him. In the distance, tall masts are visible at sea level.

Looking at the tall mast Wedel, he knew that the tonnage of this kind of battleship must be not small, and when he saw in the clairvoyant mirror that the other party also did not have a bow and stern building, he couldn't close his mouth!

You must know that even in Europe, where Galen ships are rampant, such low warships can only be built in England. This had to do with the idea of naval warfare, which other countries had not yet realized, allowing England to always have an advantage in naval warfare.

Both the dry silk and the Dutch liked to build their warships to be tall, thick, and sturdy, and to sail smoothly on the seas, but at the expense of speed and agility.

In naval warfare, the Dutch and Dutch used to break the opponent's mast with naval guns, causing the opponent to lose power. Then let the battleship come up and capture the enemy ship with hand-to-hand combat, so the battleship is nothing more than a fortress on the sea.

The English, on the other hand, had almost given up on hand-to-hand combat. Therefore, the battleship is built long and narrow, and the low, such a battleship is fast and flexible.

However, the low side of the ship allowed them to fall to the disadvantage in the jumping, so the English battleships mainly used naval guns to deal with their opponents, and tried to avoid the side battles with the opponents.

Weddell was also an expert in naval warfare, often commanding his fleet to use speed and agility to maneuver through enemy ships and then take out the enemy with naval guns.

This was his knack for winning more with less, and today he saw that the enemy ships were somewhat similar to the English ships, and his confidence in this battle was also somewhat shaken.

Looking at the warships that kept popping up in the distance, Weddell's face became more and more ugly. He silently counted in his heart: fifteen, twenty, fifty, seventy, and after finding seventy and still seeing that there were warships continuing to pop up, Weddell no longer bothered about the number of enemy ships, and began to arrange his own tactics.

On the other side, Zhang Dou personally sat on the Moby Dick battleship, and Zheng Zhilong and Zhang Dou in front of him both asked for battle at the same time. The two fleet commanders of the south, one north and the other, wanted to take the lead and make the first contribution to the Changxing army.

Zhang Dou looked at the two and said, "You two don't have to fight, there are more than a hundred enemy ships." It is enough for you to fight, and we must not only win this battle, but also try our best to destroy all enemy ships. Otherwise, allowing so many enemy ships to escape will make the sea area under our control endlessly troubled! ”

Zheng Zhilong took advantage of Zhang Huan's thinking and spoke first: "Handsome! When our warships attack with artillery, they should line up two battle lines in front of the formation to fight hostile bombardment. After defeating the main force of the enemy ship, let the faster battleship chase the enemy. Even if some enemy ships can escape, there shouldn't be too many of them! ”

Zhang Huan waited for Zheng Zhilong to finish speaking, and then said: "Handsome! Although the number of enemy ships was large, most of their warships were old ships. Among them are the dried silk warships redeemed from us, and our army should take the strongest Moby Dick as the vanguard and plunge into the enemy's formation and disrupt the enemy's formation.

Then use the superior firepower to concentrate on the melee ability of the Early Sun Cannon to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop. As long as the enemy ships scatter and escape, our large number of Exocet clippers can come in handy, and it is guaranteed that the Xiyi people will never return! ”

Zhang Dou listened to the plan of the two and nodded again and again, Zheng Zhilong's plan was more conservative, and Zhang Huan's plan was undoubtedly much more exciting.

Both of their plans have merit, and Zhang Dou asks the two of them to negotiate a result together. He, a layman in naval warfare, followed and participated in the formulation of the plan, otherwise it would be easy for a layman to guide an insider.

The two discussed and finally made a decision that Zheng Zhilong's Southern Fleet would first use the battle line to bombard the enemy ships, and Zhang Huan was ready. As soon as there is a flaw in the enemy ship, immediately lead the fleet to insert the enemy ship and break up the formation of the enemy ship. The other ships were prepared to chase the enemy and try not to let go of an enemy ship. ”

"Excellent! The plan is very good, just follow the plan! Zhang Dou nodded and smiled.

"Handsome and high-handed!" The two of them bowed in unison.
