Chapter 741: Naval Battle (3)
On the open sea of Liaodong, what can be considered the world's largest naval battle is underway.
The common people and those officials in Liaodong Port are all watching the sea battle in this world, although they can't understand what this looks like, but at least they know that their own warships have sunk a lot, but in general, they still believe that General An Yixuan will win, because General An Yixuan has so many warships, isn't it!
"Pass my military order and let the turtle boat come forward!" An Yixuan was on top of his own flagship, and he was very calm and calm, and he was issuing a seasonal signal to his hands.
"Yes!" Soon, all kinds of flags were sent out from An Yixuan's battleship.
The turtle ship, this is a very peculiar warship, this kind of warship is the same as his name, like a turtle, his entire hull is wrapped in wooden plywood, and it is also guarded with iron pieces and even nails on it, as if it were a large turtle swimming in the sea.
This kind of turtle boat defense is amazing, even the bed crossbow giant arrow can't shoot through him, but he has a shortcoming, that is, his speed is slow, after all, he is carrying such a big turtle shell, such a warship will not appear in the inland river, in the inland river, your boat is very strong, right, my bed crossbow can't shoot through you, then I don't need a bed crossbow, I will start directly, send water ghosts to get you, or directly jump on your warship to kill you, your speed is not fast, you are destined to be pressed by me, that is, your defense is amazing, I can't shoot you with a single bed crossbow, I'll have seventy or eighty, and even if I can't shoot you, the weight of the bed crossbow and the giant arrows will be able to sink you to the bottom of the river.
However, above the sea, especially in the near sea, then this turtle boat is really a sharp weapon.
Because of his amazing defense. In the middle of the sea, you still think about water ghosts. It's not feasible. Even if the turtle boat is fast, it can still swim faster than a person in the sea, and in the inland river, the boat cannot run away from the boat.
After the difficulty, it is in space, and the bed crossbow is thrown out on the inland river, basically don't aim at it, because they are all warships, and the river is so big, it is different above the sea. Such a large area.
"Turtle boat!" Gan Ning also saw the boat sent by An Yixuan over there, this kind of turtle boat, but it can really block the giant arrows of the bed crossbow, if you let him go, he can directly run over and block the river for you, or directly collide with you.
With the defense of the Galen ship, it really can't withstand this thing and hit the hull directly.
More than thirty turtle boats, lined up, dozens of meters apart, headed towards Gan Ning's monarchy like a fishing net.
Liaodong Port is a strait mouth with land on both sides. An opening was made in the middle for the ship to enter. This opening is very large, but the open net of this turtle boat can block this opening.
"General, are we going to retreat?" The first mate on the side surrounded Gan Ning, this turtle boat obviously wanted to block the mouth of the strait, if Gan Ning did not withdraw from this port now, then he would be blocked in the sea area in the port.
"Retreat?" Gan Ning frowned, although the speed of the turtle ship over there was slow, but after all, he was coming towards the main fleet, if he didn't leave the mouth of the strait and withdraw from the open sea, he might be able to be close to someone, and then block the mouth of the strait, then Gan Ning's warship would become a turtle in an urn. But if they retreated, the man would be a big loser, they had come with great might, but they were driven out of the port.
Gan Ning picked up the binoculars and continued to observe the movements of An Yixuan's fleet over there.
"Don't go!" An Yixuan really wanted to drive Gan Ning away first, because he was not sure of winning the battle, and there was another point, that is, the fleet in Yangzhou over there came from afar, and it must be repaired, and it was also a victory to beat them away. At least there is no port nearby for them to dock, so they need to go back to Yangzhou to rest, which is not a short time. There is also the fact that the mouth of the strait will not be able to withdraw for a while, and there must be troops to the rear of the palace, so he An Yixuan is ready to swallow Gan Ning's troops behind the palace first. to make up for the loss of more than thirty fast warships he had just lost.
"If you don't leave, then stay!" An Yixuan is cautious, but it doesn't mean that he is afraid of things.
"Pass my military order, let the jumper stay close behind and hide behind the turtle boat!" An Yixuan issued orders.
"Yes!" Soon, another dozens of warships broke away from the large force behind An Yixuan and came towards Gan Ning's fleet, they followed closely behind the turtle boat over there, and when they caught up with the turtle boat, they were no longer in a hurry, but hid behind the turtle boat.
"Want a gang?" Gan Ning looked at An Yixuan's battleship over there.
This An Yixuan wants to use the turtle boat to hit the head and drive himself away, if he doesn't run, then it will be the boat of the jumping gang, what is called the jumping boat, in fact, it is no different from the troop carrier, but the ones on it are all sailors, not to land and fight, but to jump on the opposite warship to play melee fighting.
"Play the Jumping Gang, we are your ancestors!" Ling Chao in the back also saw the actions of An Yixuan's fleet over there, and directly asked people to play the flag.
"General Hui, General Ling Chao called the banner in the back, and wanted to come forward to fight and ask for battle!" The gang jumping does not have the slightest technical content, that is, the two sides rush to the opposite side of the warship to see who is powerful, the powerful person kills all the people of the other ship, takes the loot or sets the opponent's warship on fire to him, and the losing side is naturally the ship is destroyed and killed, simple and rude. This trick has been used for hundreds of years in the Yangtze River basin.
Ling Chao is really not afraid of this gang fight. Whoever is afraid of melee combat, isn't it desperate.
"Ling Chao!" Gan Ning frowned, his feelings for Ling Chao were complicated, Ling Chao's father died in the hands of his Gan Ning, it was in this kind of gang jumping battle that he was scraped by Gan Ning's close-quarters.
But now Ling Chao has become his robe, or his subordinates, if he allows it, he will interrupt his tactics, the lord has long said that we definitely don't need human lives for things that can be solved with cannonballs, once the gang fights, the casualties of this thing are still very heavy.
But if he didn't agree, he would inevitably have a sense of personal vendetta in the communiqué, what would Ling Chao think. and Ling Chao may be more and more unable to resolve their grudges.
I thought about it for a while. On top of personal vendettas and the lives and deaths of those soldiers. Gan Ning still chose the latter, "issuing the banner." Let Ling Chao stay honest with me, the Marine Corps is a unit that fights ashore, not on the sea, I can't control him on land, he has to listen to me at sea! “
"Yes!" Soon, someone beat the banner out and vetoed Ling Chao's invitation to fight.
"Humph!" Ling Chao snorted coldly, although he was in a bad mood, he didn't dare to act without permission, otherwise he would be dealt with by military law. It might have been just like that, but the most unbearable thing about Ling Chao might be being provoked.
The thousand people on the side couldn't help but scold, "What kind of thing, isn't this deliberately targeting our general!" I know that Gan Ning is uneasy and kind, and he doesn't want our general to make meritorious service! ”
"Yes, we sank dozens of local warships just now, this Gan Ning is weak-hearted, I'm afraid that our general's credit is greater than his!"
The more Ling Chaoyue heard that something was wrong, and after adding that his father died in Gan Ning's hands, his eyes immediately turned red.
When someone whispered that his general's father had died in the hands of Gan Ning, Ling Chao yelled, "Enough!" ”
Ling Chao's eyes turned red.
"Pass my military orders. All the army is attacking! Ling Chao shouted in a low voice to the people under his hands.
"General, no. Without General Gan Ning's military order, I can't wait! "If you violate the military order, you will be killed.
"General Gan Ning, General Gan Ning, he is the commander-in-chief, but not your general, I am your general, pass my military order to cross the main fleet, step forward, and prepare to jump into the gang battle!" Ling Chao said angrily.
"Yes!" Seeing that Ling Chao was angry, he didn't dare to step forward and say more.
Soon Ling Chao's banner was also played.
"General, it's not good, it's not good, General Ling Chao's troop transport ship over there has played the banner of going to war!" A herald came and said to Gan Ning.
"What!" Gan Ning sat up directly, "Didn't he Ling Chao not act rashly!" Gan Ning said angrily. Didn't you make a name? Gan Ning directly picked up the herald over there and shouted.
"It's sent, we're sent! But General Ling Chao still didn't care! The herald was startled.
Gan Ning put down the herald and ran to the other end on the bridge, picked up the binoculars, and looked at Ling Chao's transport ships over there, and sure enough, the main battle banner was played on those transport ships.
Based on Ling Chao's warship, he began to spare three monarch levels and headed towards An Yixuan's turtle ship over there.
"Damn, what is he Ling Chao thinking!" Gan Ning was furious, and he was going to be killed if he disobeyed the order before the army. Gan Ning wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"Pass the order down and let Liang Chen answer them on the side!" Gan Ning had no choice but to give such an order.
"Pick them up?" Liang Chen also got this banner on the Dahan, "Ling Chao? Liang Chen took the binoculars and looked at the troop carrier over there.
I don't have the slightest affection for Ling Chao and Liang Chen, what a thing! Such a time bomb, their general is good to kill Ling Chao's father, but who made your father's skills inferior, he died on the battlefield, but General Gan Ning still took care of Ling Chao, he didn't know why this lord actually transferred Ling Chao, isn't this a blockage!
Liang Chen also knew that this Ling Chao was disobeying, "What is it!" "Liang Chen is also on fire, this is a war not a play, once someone disobeys the order in front of the army, it may lead to the defeat of the army, according to Liang Chen's anger, this Ling Chao is completely shameless "Send me a flag!" Ask the main ship, the Dahan asks for shelling, the target troop carrier! Liang Chen was also angry.
What kind of character are you Ling Chao, isn't it once or twice, according to Liang Chen's temper, it is light to send him Ling Chao directly into the sea at this time, disobey before the battle, isn't this an excuse for Gan Ning to kill him!
"What the hell does Big Brother think!" Soon Gan Ning sent a message, requesting rejection and warning Liang Chen that he dared to disobey the military order and open fire, and he would be decided! He actually gave up such a good time to shoot Ling Chao, and now that he killed Ling Chao, no one would say much.
"Humph!" Liang Chen snorted coldly. (To be continued......)
