In modern society, Wang Shuhui has a friend who loves history. He has a good relationship with this person, but in private he often thinks that this person's personality is a little mean.

This friend of his has a spiritual approval and a practical negative attitude towards all the people in history who tried to power the king at the end of the dynasty. For example, he thinks that what Mao Wenlong did in the Liaodong region at the end of the Ming Dynasty was a kind of trick death.

Wang Shuhui's friend believes that just as Yue Fei's death was executed by Qin Hui at the behest of Song Gaozong, Mao Wenlong's death was actually executed by Emperor Chongzhen and then by Yuan Chonghuan. He felt that it would be better for future generations to think that Mao Wenlong was wronged, and it was better to face up to the reality that Mao Wenlong's strength was the weakest in the Liaodong warlord group.

After all, Liaodong Jiangmen, who has also begun to produce warlord characteristics, is actually no more damning than Mao Wenlong. In fact, Emperor Chongzhen considered it from the perspective of imperial power, Yuan Chonghuan considered it from the perspective of centralization as a member of power feudalism, and Mao Wenlong was pinched to death as a soft persimmon in the Liaodong military group.

Although Wang Shuhui feels that his friend's perspective on history is not a materialist view of history, he also thinks that Mao Wenlong's view that he was pinched to death as a soft persimmon is objective enough.

As a person who looks at history with historical materialism, Wang Shuhui feels that whether it is Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan, or Emperor Chongzhen, whether they are loyal or treacherous, good or bad, these are all very subjective things. For Wang Shuhui, the relationship between them is simply a struggle for power and profit within the feudal ruling class.

Wang Shuhui looks at history and only studies historical facts. For example, Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan, this is a historical fact. As for why Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong and why Mao Wenlong died, this is not the research content of historical materialism.

Wang Shuhui looked at history in this way when he was in modern society, and after the time and space of the last years of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Shuhui still treated these living historical figures with a materialistic attitude.

Originally, some people in the Central Military Commission of the Baath Party believed that since the relationship between Mao Wenlong and the Houjin Nuzhen was antagonistic, should the Baath Party assist Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Army?

At the work meeting of the Central Military Commission, Wang Shuhui clearly said to everyone:

"Because the post-Jin Jurchen adopted a policy of national oppression and national exploitation, it was the object of struggle for our Baath Party. However, this does not mean that Dongjiang Town, a local warlord force of the Ming Dynasty that opposed the Later Jin Jurchen, is a friend of our Baath Party. After our comprehensive purge of the Later Jin Jurchen regime, in the process of eliminating the ruling class of the Ming Dynasty, the ordinary people in the Later Jin Jurchen regime who gave up their sense of national oppression are the friends of our Baath Party, and the ordinary soldiers who were oppressed, insulted, exploited, and plundered by the ruling class in the local army of the Ming Dynasty are the friends of our Baath Party. ”

"So from this point of view, neither Huang Taiji nor Mao Wenlong, whether it is the Later Jin Jurchen regime or Dongjiang Town, a local army of the Ming Dynasty with the characteristics of a warlord, are not friends of our Baath Party."

It was under this guiding ideology that Wang Shuhui clearly established the principles of the First Fleet and the Ludong Base Area for its external work.

In September 1628, after reading the report of the first contact between the First Fleet and Dongjiang Town, Wang Shuhui unconsciously recalled his friend's evaluation of Mao Wenlong in modern society. In his first contact with the First Fleet of the Baath Navy, this self-defeating guy really had a bit of a trick to do.

The Ming Dynasty had naval superiority, and this was only relative to the surrounding regions and countries of the Ming Dynasty. For Korea, for the Wa Kingdom, and even for the Western colonists who invaded the coast of the Ming Dynasty, the navy of the Ming Dynasty did have a certain advantage.

But this so-called advantage must be limited. To put it simply, in the face of the Baath Navy, the Baath Party's naval superiority can be maintained for at least two hundred years or so in the world if it follows normal historical development.

Smokeless gunpowder and high-explosive explosives do not mention the advanced ship types and cross-era power advantages of the Baath Navy, and when facing the navy of this era, which mainly uses gang jumping operations and fireship attacks as its main combat methods, the Baath Navy, which is equipped with a rudimentary optical firing command instrument and a crude mechanical computer, can smash the small wooden ships of the Ming Dynasty Navy with a mere 120 mm caliber naval gun.

Suffice it to say that in normal history, in the next two hundred years or so, backward hybrid warships such as the 101 cruiser, the flagship of the First Fleet of the Baath Navy, would only sink to the bottom of the sea in the face of any opponent.

Obviously, unlike Liu Zeqing, a person whose brain turns quickly and can correctly estimate his strength, after receiving the news that an unidentified ship appeared on the sea surface of Phi Dao, Mao Wenlong first sent someone to contact the First Fleet of the Renaissance Army by small boat, and after clarifying the identity of the trading company of the First Fleet of the Renaissance Army, Mao Wenlong did not know what kind of psychology he had, and actually sent a ship to surround the temporary formation of the First Fleet of the Baath Navy.

The temporary formation of the First Fleet of the Baath Navy, which went to Dongjiang Town to trade with Mao Wenlong, was a fleet of six thousand-ton ships. Ordinary people will understand that the small boats of several hundred tons mastered by Dongjiang Town are incomparable to such large ships just by observing the appearance.

But Mao Wenlong may be lawless in his own territory. Or maybe he naturally despised the existence of a business organization like Funado Trading Company. Anyway, this man sent a dozen or twenty small boats to surround the Baathistist Navy, and the First Fleet, consisting of a cruiser and five gunboats, came.

Fleet Commander Xu Yuanzhi has always been a believer in the principle of "firing first and then communicating". This young man was also a person who felt very much in line with Wang Shuhui's speech of "using cannons to eliminate barbarism and using machine guns to promote civilization" and fully "understood" the meaning of Mr. Wang.

As far as he, the commander of the fleet, not to mention that Dongjiang Town had already sent ships out to show obvious hostility, even if the Dongjiang Army was honest, he felt the need to plow the ground with cannonballs first, and show the Baath Party's tough stance before anything else.

So after judging the hostility of Dongjiang Town, the battle order was immediately issued by him.

In the history of New China, records of the first official operation of the Baath Party Navy are very scarce. From the perspective of future generations, they will not understand why the backward and ignorant Dongjiang Town, a warlord in the late Ming Dynasty, provoked the righteous and advanced revival of the navy.

In fact, the lack of historical records of this battle is entirely due to the fact that the battle was so boring that there was nothing to write about.

Originally, in the internal exercises of the Baath Navy, with the use of optical firing commanders and mechanical computers, the hit rates of both sides of the Baath Party's own exercises were very low. However, this is only possible when the ships on both sides are five to ten kilometers apart.

In the operation between the temporary fleet of the First Fleet of the Reconstruction Navy and the "small fishing boats" in Dongjiang Town, this distance was about two kilometers. The gunners of the revival navy did not need a shooting command or a mechanical computer at all, but only used ordinary visual inspection methods, and the six warships of the temporary fleet of the First Fleet easily sent about 20 "small fishing boats" of the Dongjiang Army to the bottom of the sea with only 75 mm amphibious guns.

After this, Xu Yuanzhi got his wish and ordered the fleet to use 120 mm guns to plow the ground of the pier on Phi Dao.

A battalion of Baath Army Marines immediately landed on the beach at Phi Koh Pier and quickly set up a beachhead consisting of barbed wire and machine guns
