Chapter 442: Take the initiative

In Chenhe City, Yang Xi analyzed the situation of all parties, and Sangou obeyed orders in his office.

As the director of the National Security Administration, Sangou is responsible for the intelligence work of the entire Chenhe country, which is a very important part.

"Three dogs! You will divide thirty airships into three parts, three battlefields, and ten for each battlefield. There is absolutely no problem in the northeast, and our strength in the south is enough to deal with it. I'm afraid of chaos in the Western Regions right now. The Western Regions will send ten crosses first, and I will let Yang Xiao hurry up the work, and in June, all the military horses of the seven countries will be in place, and when the war begins, another ten crosses should be built to aid the Western Regions. ”

"Yes! Son! Oh, by the way, you transferred General Huang Zhong to Irrawaddy City, but only brought 100,000 people, I'm afraid it's not enough, General Ji Ling is in Irrawaddy, only 100,000 military horses, that is, plus General Leizi's 50,000 military horses in the Wuchang Strait, the total strength is only 250,000. ”

"Don't worry, wars don't depend on a large number of people. Now that the city of Ayeyarwady is also connected to the train, I will transfer people to pass, and how many people can be pulled by one train, and how many trains will be sent. With 250,000 riflemen and mortars, if Huang Zhong can't hold it, then he will live up to my trust. You just have to do the inform, by the way, how is Amir's military horse investigation? ”

"Tell Childe! The 600,000 Amir coalition army was divided into two parts, the 200,000 naval army was assembled on the island of Sri Lanka in the southernmost part of the Amir Empire, and the 400,000 infantry army was in Calcutta. ”

"Sri Lanka Island? It is only 2,000 kilometers across the Bay of Bengal, and it takes only a few days to be a human-powered boat. ”

Yang Xi looked at the map and began to think about strategic deployment.

"Quick! Hurry up and send your airship to the Andaman Sea, hurry! No! I'm going to go myself! I had an idea! I'll have to go there myself to make it happen! ”

Sangou was stunned by Yang Xi's words.

On the same day, Yang Xi explained some things to Zhang Zhao of the State Council, and then boarded the airship, ten airships, and quietly went to Zhongnan Prefecture.

From Chenhe City to Bangkok City in Tai County, a straight-line distance of 2,000 kilometers, Yang Xi ordered ten flying balls to travel at the highest altitude day and night, bringing enough diesel.

The airship traveled several tens of kilometers per hour toward the city of Bangkok, and on 19 May, the airship arrived in the city of Bangkok, taking just over a day.

Tian Cong, the governor of Central and South China, and Lei Zi, the newly transferred commander of the Wuchang fleet, came to greet him.

The airship landed at the airport in Bangkok for replenishment and rest, and after Yang Xi got off the airship, he did not enter the city to rest, and immediately talked about work.

"Thunder! Tell me about your deployment! ”

"Yes! Son! Since I sent 50,000 soldiers and horses to the city of Ayeyarwady, handed over to Commander-in-Chief Huang Zhong, and changed to the commander of the Wuchang fleet, I transferred all 10 warships and 10 auxiliary transport ships of the Wuchang fleet to patrol the shores of the Wuchang Strait. In the northern part of the Andaman Sea, the Burmese fleet is in charge. On the side of the Amir Empire, there was no news of the move, but it seemed that everything was ready. Commander-in-Chief Huang Zhong led an army of 250,000 troops, all of which were also assembled in the Irrawaddy River Valley. In early May, our Wuchang fleet had already sent 250,000 rifles, 500 mortars, and all ammunition to the newly built city of Yangon at the mouth of the Irrawaddy River. Report complete! ”

Yang Xi nodded and said, "Okay!" Very good! With this layout, it is the most perfect under this condition. However, now that I am here in person, the strategy has changed! You see, our coastline is so long, that if all the Amir army were to be transported by water, and to find a good harbor to climb,6 we would be eighty percent sure that we would not be able to detect it. It's too dangerous here. So, I'm going to take the initiative and it's hard in advance! ”

"Take the initiative?"

"Yes, Lei Zi listens to orders!"

"The subordinates are here!"

"I order you to lead the Wuchang fleet out with me, assemble immediately today, follow the airship, and go straight west to the mainland of the Amir Empire, Sri Lanka Island! The Seven-Nation Alliance invaded our China, I can't be passive, although they took the initiative to provoke this war, but I want to fire the first shot of this war! Kill! ”

"Subordinates listen to orders! Assemble now! ”

Two days later, the Wuchang fleet and 10 airships crossed the Bay of Bengal to the eastern waters of Sri Lanka Island.

At present, only Chenhe can do this.

Ten airships were lined up on the surface of the sea, each seven or eight kilometers apart, so that they could see each other's flares and reconnoiter almost the entire eastern coast of the island of Sri Lanka.

Seventy or eighty kilometers of narrow length are all under Yang Xi's nose, and Yang Xi wants to destroy the sea power of the Amir and Mido empires in one fell swoop.

Yang Xi has a bolder decision.

He wants to occupy the island of Sri Lanka and use it as a base!

South Asia's second largest 6 has become the next target of Chenhe Kingdom, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!

The island of Sri Lanka is located near the equator and is tropical. The island has a lot of highlands and is rich in pearls. The point is that the island has a lot of veins of gemstones.

The gemstones here are beautiful in color and hard, and can be used as instrument bearings, abrasives, and ornaments, which are very valuable.

The point is that the island of Sri Lanka is very huge, with more than 65,000 square kilometers, which is almost two the size of Taiwan Island. In the future, this is an extremely precious land resource.

Using this as a base, once the time is ripe, Yang Xi can directly kill the Amir Empire and destroy the butcher of Amir.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, ten airships approached the coast almost closely, searching bay after bay.

Suddenly, Yang Xi saw from a distance that a red flag was raised by an airship in the north.

"Order, raise the red flag!"

The representative of the red flag asked the airship to transmit the news to the ships on the sea, not to signal the flare, but to avoid being exposed and revealing the news.

So quietly, twenty warships and ten airships gathered around the airship that was the first to give a red signal.

According to the direction pointed by the red flag, Yang Xi gave the order to the commander of the fleet on the sea, Lei Zi, and the enemy ship docked somewhere in front.

Lei Zi received the opportunity and immediately ordered: "Order! The Wuchang Strait Fleet attacked, destroyed the enemy ships, and killed them! ”

Twenty warships rushed to the coastline of the island of Sri Lanka.

It's a beautiful harbor, and it's huge, with almost a thousand big ships in it.

Yang Xi ordered ten airships to be lined up in a fan shape and monitored the sea surface for dozens of kilometers.

With a telescope, with the degree of an airship, the enemy ship will not be able to escape the palm of his hand at all.

At 2:50 p.m., Leizi ordered an attack.

Twenty warships, taking the initiative to attack thousands of ships, but the other side just didn't know what to do.

The large ships in the bay collided left and right, and they were very surprised by this sudden attack.

Naturally, it was impossible for Mido and Amir to be here in person, and the other generals had never seen such a powerful warship that could attack from several kilometers away.

Although the Allies organized several counterattacks, the opposing warships were too fast.

Hundreds of warships scurried around in the dozens of kilometers of water, and some even tried to escape, but they were too slow. Yang Xi ordered the airship not to waste time dropping bombs in the air, but only responsible for monitoring, and when the existing fleet escaped, he would indicate the direction to the fleet below in time.

The battle lasted until seven o'clock in the afternoon, and Yang Xi issued an order to retreat and assemble.

The thunderbolt fired a signal flare, and the fleet reunited to report the results of the battle, and in this battle, a total of 507 enemy ships were sunk, but more than 300 of them scattered and escaped.

After all, the sea is immeasurable, and although the new warships are fast and have very strong strike capabilities, the number is too small.

The main guns of the battleship can smash a wooden ship of the opponent with almost two guns, and once it is shot, the ship will not sink immediately at that time, and it will not last long.
