Meyderor's fleet was still moving at a speed of six to eight knots, and Colonel Ston stood by Colonel Ton, the former captain of the Bohn, Major Carnest, who had lost his ship, and at this time he could only bet on the hope of taking the port of the East, otherwise, for a maritime race like the Medenor, losing a ship would be even more heinous than losing his life. The first and second www.biquge.info of his first and second officers were on deck when they abandoned the ship, but they were already familiar with the ship before they escaped, but the boatswain in charge of the bilge escaped unscathed, and I heard that he still ran from the bottom bilge to the third deck and then got out of the porthole......

"Captain, we are already very close to the port of the East, but now it is pitch black everywhere, and we can't find the location of the port for the time being." The first mate ran over and reported to Stone.

Ston nodded, he was not surprised at all, although there is no such thing as light control in this era, but no one would be willing to use their own resources to light the road at night, you must know that as long as it is dark in this plane, unless you bring your own lantern, you don't expect a street lamp to illuminate.

"Put down the dinghy, measure the depth, let's get closer, let the lookout keep his eyes open, whoever discovers the port of the East first will get a gold coin." After speaking, the herald beside Ston Chong said to the first mate beside him, "We should be about two miles south of Dongfang Harbor now," he said, pointing to the north, "Those pirates are over there, and it is still the time of high tide, we can enter the harbor while the tide is under the tuit of the dinghy, so that we can break through the defenses of their coast in a very short time." ”

Not far from them, Zeng Zhigang was lurking in the woods behind the shallows of the sea with a platoon of army soldiers, staring closely at the four large ships with a telescope while holding a walkie-talkie to communicate with the communications center. Now he was so nervous that he had to joke with the little girl in charge of communications for a while, but now he was meticulously reporting the situation of the enemy ship. "They had just put down the dinghy, and the people in the dinghy were rowing to the shore, but in a direction to the north, probably towards the harbor."

Hearing the report of the female voice of the communication group, Li Jieqi, who was in charge of the command, nodded and observed in front of the map in the command center.

"According to the report of the radar station, the enemy fleet is now stopped about eight hundred meters to the south, and they should have nautical charts to infer the location of our port." Xiao Mingwei pointed to a few points on the chart and said.

"We don't have a very good port here, and in fact the sandbar is completely submerged at high tide every night, and the water depth is estimated to be about four or five meters, so in this case, I think these boats are fully capable of going directly over the sandbar and coming in from above." "He was summoned to the communications command center to coordinate the command after coming down from cruiser No. 1, and his ship could not participate in the battle at this time anyway." It's a good thing that these big ships have come in, our harbor has not undergone large-scale reconstruction, and the area suitable for big ships is very narrow, and unless they come in and quickly withdraw with the low tide, they only need to block the entrance to the harbor, and it is easy to block them in the harbor. ”

"But you have to know that they have a lot of artillery on their ships," Li Jieqi added, "If they enter the port and fight all over the port and the city, it will be an irreparable loss to break two computers or something, even if they can't hit the computers and break the two electric lights, we will not be able to produce supplements at this stage." ”

"This is a big problem, I do have an idea," a sentence came out of the north latitude on the side, "The sea power of this time and space is eliminated under the standard law of the jungle, and when sailing at sea, there is no maritime order like our old time and space, once you find a ship that is not your own, if the strength is greater than the other party, you will eat the other party, and if the strength is less than the other party, you must escape." This fleet has rushed to our vicinity even with a third of its losses, and there is only one reason, that is, to plunder or occupy our harbor, and there is no way for ships to run onto land to plunder. He said and smiled, and several military veterans next to him also smiled, "We just need to hold the city to prevent the enemy from attacking, you must know that the distance between the port and the city area is at least a thousand meters, I believe that the artillery in the port is not enough to shoot at a target a thousand meters away." ”

"What about the loss of the port area?" Li Jieqi was very depressed, the method of inviting you into the urn was quite effective, but these pirates would not take it lightly when they rushed in and looted, and if they broke the things in the port area, the loss would be great.

"There is nothing in the port area in the first place, just some warehouses and naturalized people's offices, and their written documents are required to be sent to the Ministry of Commerce every day for summarization, and if they are damaged, they are nothing more than desks, chairs and benches in some offices," Beiwei explained, "The port area has not undergone any large-scale construction, and there are very few fixed facilities, just a few wooden cranes, or manpower squirrel cage cranes, if they are really broken, it would be better for the lumber mill to rebuild a new one." ”

"That's right," Bu Zhongfu hurriedly said, "These ships are very important to us, we only have one training ship in the past few months, the tonnage of this Chunxiao is not large, and the room for transformation is too small." The ships are quite large, and if they can be used by captives, they will definitely be able to expand our navy in a short time. ”

"What's the use of expanding the Navy? Still not allowed to ask for anyone? A discordant voice suddenly came out on the side, and everyone hurriedly looked over to find that it was Sun Wenbin, this executive committee member had been absent from several internal meetings, and this time he was named by Yang Minghuan to participate in this command operation to brush up his sense of existence, but he didn't care about this at all now, he just cared about his farm, which made some departments complain. Our current population is less than 4,000 or 5,000, and although there is still a lot of grain in stock, it can only be consumed for about two months. The port of Champong, where we bought grain, was completely destroyed at this time, and we had no place to buy grain in the future. ”

"I'll go, where is your farm?" Li Jieqi was a little stunned. "It's basically time for your farm to harvest in two months, so those high-yielding crops of potatoes or something should be fine, right?"

"Potatoes are high-yielding, but that thing is not full-filling, corn or something is high-yielding, but can you eat corn as food?" Sun Wenbin couldn't help but sneer, "The ducks and chickens we brought have not yet begun to lay eggs, fortunately, we still have the necessary chicken raising skills, otherwise the chickens may starve to death." ”

"What kind of chicken raising skills?" Everyone was stunned, or was it necessary to cross the crowd, why didn't they know anything?

"Breeding earthworms, I won't tell you this, anyway, chickens and ducks won't steal food from us, and it will be possible to build a farm when they start laying eggs." Sun Wenbin knew that if he continued to talk about this battle, he wouldn't need to command, "Anyway, you can take it easy to capture the prisoners this time, we don't have so much for them to eat, I estimate that they have to rush over after being beaten so badly, it is estimated that it is because there is no food, so if possible, let some of them escape, don't carry them all, we really can't afford to raise so many prisoners." ”

"But we and the militia are less than a thousand, so we don't know how many we can capture." Li Jieqi couldn't help laughing.

…………………………

Zeng Zhigang was still keeping an eye on the boat, and the people on several small boats were rowing the small boats vigorously, pulling the big boat and starting to enter the port. In addition, there are small boats on the big ship downward, and looking at the full line of sailors on the deck, it is estimated that it is intended to land. "Command, I saw a lot of people on the big ship, probably planning to land from the south. In addition, there is a large ship that is heading north away from the coast. ”

The Marines on standby by the lighthouse also retreated to the harbor area at this time, and their machine guns were set up at the head of the city, ready for firing.

Sure enough, after a short time, more than a dozen boats carrying landing sailors began to row towards the shallows on the shore, and a swing gun was also erected on the front of the boat, which was probably used for cover shooting. The sailors drew their swords and daggers, or raised their spears, and prepared for battle, while some of the musketeers were already starting to reload their propellants, looking nervous.

"Command, did you get it?" Zeng Zhigang suddenly felt strange, there was no response to the report just now, and when he looked down, there was no electricity. When he touched his body, he didn't even bring out a spare battery, so he hurriedly called a soldier to rush to the platoon in the ambush in the port to see if there was a spare battery and report the situation here by the way.

However, to his annoyance, the group of enemies seemed to have picked up the pace and soon began to prepare for the landing, "Meow! Can't wait! He took a closer look, and the boat with the swing cannon at the front was only about six meters away from the shoal, and there were at least one hundred and fifty or sixty people on each of the ten or so boats, if there were twelve people in each boat. I only have one platoon here, and if I don't fight now, I won't fight until they have landed, and the enemy will be scattered and will not be able to fight.

"Shoot ready! Pass it on! He made up his mind and whispered the order to shoot at the soldiers beside him.

The soldiers whispered the battle order to their companions, and took out the copper-shelled bullets from the bullet packs, because the caliber of these bullets was 12 mm, so each soldier carried only thirty rounds, and in order to protect them from moisture, they had to be removed from the moisture-proof bullet bags before the battle. One by one, they opened the magazines of their weapons and stuffed the bullets into them accurately, a reload that each of them had contacted at least a thousand times, so that they were able to reload accurately, even though there was no light at this time.

In order to reflect the unity of the officers and soldiers, the officers and soldiers of the army used the same Type 1628 rifle, at this time Zeng Zhigang took this rifle and aimed at the roundabout gunner on the boat, took a deep breath to ease the nervousness, and then took a long breath and narrowed his right eye slightly. At this time, the roundabout gunner was resting his right hand on the barrel of the gun and looking this way, and the face full of flesh was as obvious as it was in Zeng Zhigang's eyes.

"Smack!" The crisp sound of gunfire tore through the silence of Vostochny Harbor, and the roundabout gunner suddenly clutched his chest and plunged headlong into the sea.
