Chapter 111: Brilliant Victory
Yang Wenli's side occupied the upper reaches, and did not pass through the battle formation, just dispersed, and crashed into the ship formation of the officers and soldiers.
Although some ships also received one shell, this time because they were scattered, at most only one shell, and the two sides entered the mode of engaging the gunwale.
This time, his side has the experience of broadside warfare, and the female wall of the warship is protected, and he has shot a few rounds of arrows, but his soldiers have not been damaged. The soldiers jumped onto the officers and men's boats as soon as the bow of the ship was staggered, holding round shields and drawing knives in their hands, and immediately slashed and slashed, and the Franco-machine cannons on both sides of the officers and men suddenly lost their offensive effect.
Officers and soldiers are so miserable! Just like a target, they were slashed and killed by the soldiers one by one, and the strength of the two sides was too disproportionate, whether it was equipment, strength, or technical combat level, or mental quality, the soldiers had almost no enemy, and the officers and soldiers were slaughtered and exhausted in the blink of an eye. Because the sailors had no weapons and no armor, they not only jumped into the water, but could only surrender on their knees.
It only took a few minutes for the remaining warships and patrol ships of the officers and soldiers to be declared a failure, and what was even worse was that the main generals of the officers and soldiers, who happened to be on these ships, were slaughtered by the red-eyed soldiers, and the remaining boats of the officers and soldiers immediately lost their command and became their own formations, and after receiving a few rounds of arrow rain, they immediately took advantage of the speed of the ship and fled in all directions.
This unexpectedly quick victory, Yang Wenli's tense heartstrings finally relaxed, and he immediately ordered in a loud voice: "Manager Li, you immediately lead the logistics department, count the results, rescue your own wounded, and order your own shipwrights and sailors to rescue the ship." ”
"Obey" Li Huaixuan saluted him with a not-so-standard chest-beating salute and promised loudly. He was so excited that his face was flushed at this time, his own troops had defeated a powerful fleet of naval divisions so easily, especially in close combat, the officers and soldiers became as powerless as weak chickens, which proved that his own troops had excellent combat power, this was still not good at water warfare, if it was a land battle, he couldn't imagine what kind of scene it was.
He was full of unprecedented confidence in this expedition to Liaodong, so he was full of energy, and after leaving Yang Wenli's ship, Li Huaixuan immediately issued various orders, thinking clearly and in an orderly manner.
"Ru Cheng, you immediately gather the soldiers under your merit examination division to conduct statistics on your merits."
"Zi'an, you immediately lead the shipwrights and sailors on the ship to repair the ship, remember, you must hurry, we don't have much time to stay here."
"Xiancheng, you immediately check the captured officers and soldiers, and preach the policy of our army, as well as the owners of our chartered ships this time with kind words to appease them, and explain the problem that our army will make up for it."
The directors of the logistics department went one by one in response to the order, and he himself led the remaining soldiers of the logistics department to actively rescue the wounded.
This work of saving lives and helping the wounded won the gratitude of the soldiers, so he had to do it himself, without it, because he wanted to go higher and farther in Yang Wenli's system, because he was full of confidence in this army.
After he became the head of logistics, Wang Rucheng was also promoted to the next level and became the director of the most important department, the Department of Meritorious Service. Huang Zi'an is the director of the engineering department, and another clerk succeeded Wang Rucheng as the director of the propaganda department.
There are only a few clerks in total, so each of them has to be promoted, which is a typical short man to choose the tallest one, otherwise according to their fame, they are not even Xiucai, and in the official and civil society, it is not qualified to be a teacher.
Of course, it doesn't mean that their ability must not be as good as Xiucai, the ancient eight-strand education system, all of them are nerds, not familiar with the world, in fact, useless, all rely on personal temperament and acquired life training.
……
"Big boss, our brother luckily completed the important task entrusted to us by the big boss and defeated the water painter, please instruct the next part."
Yang Rentian took Yang Renyue and the two of them to report the news of the victory to Yang Wenli, and at the same time, they mainly asked him about his next arrangement.
Although they said that they had defeated the powerful Dangtu Shui Division this time, in fact, their brothers had made many serious mistakes, such as Yang Renyue's command of the fleet was confused, and there was no battle formation at all, which became a scene of chaotic fighting, and their own side also lost a ship.
But he was not born on the water after all, he was a pure landlubber, and he hit it crookedly, and achieved a brilliant victory. Yang Wenli didn't want to criticize him anymore, so he praised the two brothers with a pleasant smile: "Very good, this brilliant victory is the first show of our army's regular warfare, and it is of great significance to be able to win in battle." This proves that you can flexibly apply the knowledge I have taught you, and it also proves that you have been able to command the troops in battle, which is worthy of gratification. ”
"But...... Yes" Yang Wenli praised them and then changed his tone with a "but", and then said: "In this battle, you have a lot of problems, I won't understand them all, you summarize them yourself, I hope you can learn from the lessons, continue to grow, until you can take on the responsibility of a qualified commander."
We should not stay here for too long, otherwise the downstream checkpoints will become suspicious, and if the officers and soldiers and sailors strengthen their defenses, it will be even more difficult for us to break through.
As soon as the ship is repaired, you will organize the fleet and set sail. ”
"Obey" the two brothers, Yang Rentian and Yang Renyue, immediately kowtowed and saluted, and promised loudly.
The surface battle just now has cut off the navigation of the Yangtze River, and the upstream cargo ships have stopped far away, and none of them dare to come down.
After arranging the follow-up matters, Yang Wenli took advantage of the temporary fineness and hurried back to the cabin to appease his little wife.
"Ah......" Yang Wenli leaned over and lifted the plank, he heard a scream, the light was projected, he saw that Xiao Yan'er was shrunk into a ball of fright and screaming, so he hurriedly said: "Yan'er, don't be afraid!" It's me. ”
Xiao Yan'er dared to stand up when she heard his familiar voice, she looked up and asked him worriedly, "Xianggong, have we won the official army?" ”
"If you win, come out!" Yang Wenli stretched out his hand and said to her with a smile.
This is a food storage warehouse on the ship, there is a large amount of grain and meat in it, even if it is hit by a cannonball, it is very safe, Yang Wenli is worried about her safety, and wants her to hide in it alone, which is much safer than in the guest warehouse.
After Xiao Yan'er took Yang Wenli's hand and climbed into the cabin, she stretched out her tender hand, combed her loose hair, and after tidying up her dress, she whispered to Yang Wenli: "Xianggong, I'm so scared, I don't dare to go out to see." ”
Don't look at her young age, she also knows that she has to maintain her identity as a housewife, not only to tidy up and dress up, but also not to speak loudly, she is afraid that her subordinates will laugh at her timidity, and typical people are cautious and big-eyed.
"I'll accompany you to the cabin and sit, and I'll set sail soon." Of course, Yang Wenli knew her careful thoughts, and he didn't break her, but just said to her with a smile.
"Hmm," Xiao Yan'er nodded her little head and agreed.
