epydz (Since the Huaxia Dynasty has no plans to expand the number of sailors in the short term, the Huaxia Navy, which still maintains a high level of military spending, is now eliminating old ships and building new ships in accordance with the requirements of unified armamentsWelcome to read.) The so-called unified armament refers to the unification of the caliber of artillery on warships at all levels, that is, the caliber of the ship's long guns is unified to three inches (93. 3 mm), that is, the equivalent of the eighteen-pounder guns of the Inguilli guns, the caliber of the shipboard short guns was four inches (124. 4 mm), that is, the equivalent of the forty-four-pounder gun of the Inguilli ship, the caliber of the shipborne light gun was two inches (62. 2mm) is equivalent to the nine-pounder gun of Inguili

According to the unified shape setting, the second-class cruiser was equipped with 16 four-inch short guns, 24 three-inch long guns, and 16 two-inch light guns, "Each short gun group and long gun group each had six people, and the light gun crew had four people, so that the whole ship had a total of 296 gunners, plus the captain of the ship's guns and deck guns, a second-class cruiser had a total of 300 guns

In addition to the guns on the gun deck, the upper deck of the cruiser also has twenty small anti-jump guns such as the Franc machine gun and the Tiger squat gun, which are very close, but these guns are not under the command of the ship's gunner, and the deck chief commands the sailors in wartime, CAO is mainly responsible for commanding the sailors in wartime, and in non-wartime, he is responsible for CAO training sailors' fighting, swimming and other special projects, and is one of the main deputies of the boatswain

As the name suggests, the boatswain is the commander who commands all sailors other than the gunners, and of course it is not absolutely impossible to command the gunners, in fact, in non-war times, the gunners and sailors in the Chinese naval division often rotate and train, and they can be prepared for emergencies in wartime

In addition to the deck length, there is also a sail chief under the boatswain, a second-class cruiser has five masts including the foremast, mainmast, and aftermast, and the front mast and the rear mast are each cross-masted, and the front and rear masts each have a transmit, and the front main and rear masts each have two transmasts, plus the diagonal sails connected between the masts, the total size of the whole ship is seventeen sails, although the Huaxia sailors use a large number of pulley groups to reduce the intensity of work, but because the area of each sail is too large, so under the current pumping situation, any sail still needs two to three people, and more manpower is needed when it is urgently closed

In addition, there are usually helmsmen, shipwrights, chief ship doctors, chief chefs, etc., and each ship is also equipped with du1i law enforcement officers (military judges), navigators, and officers

In this way, a second-class cruiser usually has less than 600 men and 700 men

Therefore, even if the temporary detachment led by Tan An and Han Bai were all second-class cruisers, their total strength would only be 4,000 people, and after deducting the necessary gunners and sailors on board, only a quarter of them could go on 6 battles, not to mention that there was only one cruiser in these two fleets, and the rest were only first- and second-class cruisers with four or five hundred people

However, even if each detachment could only put together six or seven hundred men to fight in 6, it still had a certain overwhelming advantage over the weak forces of the Tokugawa shogunate, and most of the feudal domains did not think that the flames of war could burn on them, so they were not prepared at all, so the Xia army was overwhelmed

On the 15th day of the seventh month of the third year of Takesei, that is, when the Edo shogunate learned of the defeat of the voyage and the attack on Sunfu, the squadron of Han Bai, a Chinese naval division who went north, shelled the Naka River under the command of the Mito Domain, and then broke into the port of Ritachi and burned the port town

On July 17, after completely destroying the town of Sunbu, Tanyasu drove into Mikawawan, and then shelled the Chita Peninsula of the Atsumi Peninsula in turn, causing tens of thousands of terrified people to flee in6 and causing a great movement, Tan An, who was unimpressed, turned to attack the direction of Ise and burned down more than 20 merchant ships of various sizes in Ise Port, and the fire in Ise Port ignited the wooden structure in Ise Port Town, and nearly 1,000 houses and goods were offered to Zhurong

On July 18, Han Baibu sailed into the northern part of the Natori Kawaku, and after enjoying the so-called beautiful scenery of Matsushima, Han Bai's troops came to Ishinomaki Port, but this time Han Bai did not have a chance to fight, and the Date family, who was bent on seeking additional benefits in the Xia I War, immediately sent the waiting feudal priests to contact him as soon as they saw the strangely shaped foreign ship, although Han Bai had no right to respond to the Date family's courtesy, but based on the common saying that he stretched out his hand and did not hit the smiling man, Han Bai continued to sail north after receiving supplies such as live deer, live boar, live pheasants, and rice catches provided by the Date family, and trouble some unknown feudal states

On July 19, Tan An bypassed the Kii Peninsula and broke into the Seto Inland Sea, and after shelling the outer harbor of Awaji Kunisu Main Castle, the detachment of troops gathered more than 100 ships of the Shogunate Osaka Castle in the most important port town of Honji and the Shogunate Osaka Castle in the outer port of Osaka in an attempt to intercept and destroy Tan Yasubu

Based on this, Tan An extorted 2 million taels of silver from the town and Osaka merchants for the opening of the city, and threatened to completely destroy the town and Osaka Port if he did not pay it within a day

The news of the successive attacks in various places confirmed Yanagisawa Yoshihei's judgment, but the shogunate sent to command the joint operation did not arrive in the war zone so quickly, and the helpless feudal clans had to deal with the invading strong enemy alone, which deeply shook the foundation of the shogunate's rule
