Chapter 1226 Qi Yu reappeared under the fire
On a winter night, the north wind is blowing on the sea, and on the sea north of Shimonoseki, a huge fleet is moving silently
However, human wisdom is very powerful, in the mast and stern of each ship, there is a string of one-way lanterns, from the front, this fleet is black like ghost ships, but from the back, you can see a string of very obvious light signs, the whole fleet is based on this system to sail in the dark.
"Jiang Qin, who was standing on the command platform from distance 1, tightened the fur fur on his body and patted the ice ballast on his beard, it was so cold standing here!
"According to calculations, there are still twenty miles from the coast1
"The detachments were ordered to mark their routes according to their predetermined positions and to move separately.1
"No1
"The teams were ordered to act in unison, subject to signals from the shore1
"No1
Jiang Qin closed his mouth, and as soon as he spoke, the cold wind poured into his mouth, and the feeling was really uncomfortable.
Looking at the dark coastline, it seems that you can see a sporadic fire in the distance, which is the lights on Shimonoseki Castle, and the position of the fleet from Shimonoseki is calculated based on the distance between these two lights.
That's right, Jiang Qin's goal is to go down.
Similarly, in the sea south of Shimonoseki, a fleet is quietly approaching Shimonoseki. This is Chen Shao's Sixth Fleet, and they are closer.
"Order, the fleet lights out and drop anchor."
"No1
"General Cai1
"The end will be 1
"I'll give a signal in a moment. You start attacking according to the plan, pay attention to the opponent's city defense artillery, and try to spread the formation as much as possible1
"Understood1
"Please, I'll go now1
"I wish the general a victorious start to the flag1
"Hehe, thanks! Qiyu battalion, sortie 1
A group of dinghys glided into the distant shore in the darkness of the night, in order to avoid the possible presence of coastal observation posts. The location chosen by Chen Shao was quite remote, and in the dark night, the Qiyu camp dressed in black quietly touched the coast.
One by one, the squads quickly split up according to the predetermined plan, and each squad was led by a general. Not to mention the other skills of these generals, peeping and lurking are all played with skill books, and then they continue to improve these two skills in combat training.
The fighters, who were skilled in assassination, quickly dug out the open and secret posts of the Japanese people one by one under the leadership of the captain, and cleared out a landing area and passage.
"Signal! Let the fleet start attacking! Commando and Inhuman commandos were ordered to land 1
"No1
A lantern with only half-pulled transparency was lit. Then he waved towards the sea. The signal accurately passed Chen Shao's order to the past!
Cai Zhong's suppressed heart beat violently:
"The order was given to the attacking troops to lift anchor and raise their sails, and to attack in a series of scattered formations, with trebuchets loaded with fire oil and fireballs.1
"No1
"Commando detachment was ordered to land 1
"No1
"Anchoring, anchoring 1
"Raise the sails, control the lights, no lights other than the attackers, and hang the bow and stern signal lights."
"Attention. Hold the rope in place during the fight and don't throw it off the sea1
"Watch out for enemy artillery."
Fighting broke out suddenly. The defenders of Shimonoseki City immediately began to fight back, but due to the problem of sight, the effect of the return fire was not very good, and the fleet of the Han army was more often in the containment of the attack, hit and run, and the speed of the ship was also very fast, and the city defense artillery wanted to hit it purely by luck, and it was impossible to destroy such a large ship after a few hits.
"Ordered, the assault detachment set off and proceeded with a harassing attack 1 according to the predetermined plan
"No1
"Send a signal to General Sun Ming1
"No1
Jiang Qin's troops saw the fire rumbling on Xiaguan City, and the enemy's artillery fire was the best signal, and the huge fleet of ships also began to raise their sails and anchor, rushing towards Xiaguan City.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! A large number of Han warships were also found in the north1
"Yaga! Could it be that the Han army was planning to capture Xiaguan? ”
"General"
"The troops were ordered to hold out, the artillery returned fire with all their might, the artillery positions in the city were prepared, and the anti-aircraft units near the city walls were to be carefully defended against enemy air raids.1
"Hi 1
"Call all the guys who aren't online at once1
"Hi 1
"Order the defenders of the city to pay attention to fire prevention and beware of riots by indigenous forces.
"Hi 1
There were a large number of defenders of Shimonoseki Castle, and if the Han army did not land in large numbers, it would be unrealistic to take Shimonoseki in one fell swoop, and now the vision was not good, and the information obtained by the Japanese commanders was not clear, and it was not certain whether the enemy would land in a big way, so the best thing to do now was to defend cautiously, and at the same time ask for help from Sanyo and Kitakyushu, at least from these two directions to guard against a large-scale landing of enemy troops.
If the Han army really landed on a large scale, the purpose of its attack on Shimonoseki should be to cut off the connection between Kyushu and the main island, and then the outbreak of Armageddon in Shimonoseki would be inevitable.
There is a narrow strait between the main island of Yingzhou and Kyushu, and this strait with a width of less than 1,000 steps is protected by heavy artillery groups on both sides of the strait, otherwise a large number of ferries at the Xiaguan wharf would have been burned down by the Han army, and now the target of the Han army's attack is these heavy artillery groups or ferry docks.
"Order the air defense forces to concentrate on the ferry dock, and the heavy artillery on both sides of the strait to concentrate on blocking the north and south of the strait, and absolutely not allow the Han army to break through1
"Hi 1
"Order the navy to be on guard outside the harbor to prevent the infiltration of enemy boats1
"Order the reconnaissance force to expand the reconnaissance area as soon as possible to obtain the latest movements of the enemy forces1
"Hi 1
Not long after the herald ran out. Suddenly, there was a strong flash of light outside the window, and then a loud explosion sounded, and the real house shook. Then one after another explosions continued to come, and the real fire reflected the night sky red from time to time.
"Yaga, what's going on?"
"General, it's not good, the enemy's flying units flew in from the northeastern land, dropped a lot of fire oil, and then"
"Bang" The wooden stick in the hand of the Japanese commander was broken. Then, he sat down on a stool in a distraught and muttered to himself in frustration.
"Northeast side. From the land direction? No, there is still a fleet, no, no. It was the convoy in the northeastern sea. Damn Navy 1
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly grabbed it from the stool, to the north, the explosion just now seemed to be in the northeast, and the enemy army had gone to Shimonoseki Castle because of the sight problem, but it did not accurately blow up the dock. This cannot but be said to be a blessing.
"Immediately give an order to the air defense forces to move to the northeast flank. Prevent the second wave of enemy raids1
"Hi 1
Chen Zhen looked at the sky-high flames burning in Xiaguan City, as well as the continuous explosions, grinned, turned his head and said, "Attack!" Burn the enemy's docks1
In the open field, on the beach, and even on the hillside, countless trebuchets were erected, and tonight, the target of the commandos was the pier not far away.
"Ignition, shot 1
'Boom~'
"Hoohoo ~ boom! Boom 1
Clusters of fireballs exploded at the Shimonoseki wharf, and the ferries that gathered on the wharf suddenly fell into a sea of fire, and the wooden trestle warehouse also quickly burned, and then the gunpowder stored in it also began to explode, blowing up the Japanese people who went to fight the fire.
The Japanese navy on guard on the sea was dumbfounded, but what about the defense line on the side of the dock? What about the defenders?
Did they all surrender silently, or were they quietly obliterated by the enemy?
Chen Zhen, who was standing on the hillside, looked at the dock that was caught in the sea of fire with satisfaction, turned around and ordered: "Burn the equipment and retreat 1."
Soon, a fire broke out behind the hillside, and when the Japanese reinforcements arrived, there was nothing left but the burned equipment.
The last fire on the western pier ignited, as if sending a signal, and the Han fleet besieging Xiaguan began to retreat one after another, and then gradually disappeared into the night.
However, the Han army's attack did not end, and in the early hours of the morning, the Han army once again attacked the heavy artillery positions on the side of Kitakyushu, and a large number of flying dragons threw down oil drums, which were then ignited by the fireballs thrown by the warships, and the heavy artillery positions on the slopes of the lower Kyushu mountains were completely plunged into a sea of fire.
At the same time, the heavy artillery positions in the south of Xiaguan were also infiltrated by the Han army's assassination troops, and although the Han army was driven away after burning down part of the positions, it was not so easy to restore the heavy artillery positions.
Because a large amount of supplies piled up in Shimonoseki Castle were burned, and the Han army was still wandering around the sea like wild wolves, and even attacked the dilapidated positions in the direction of Kitakyushu in broad daylight, clearing the last heavy artillery positions of the Japanese and preventing the Japanese from repairing their positions.
The attack on Xiaguan made the Japanese very nervous, and the Han army only dispatched the navy, coveting the north and south sides of the narrow Xiaguan, and could attack again anytime and anywhere, which was like a sharp knife on their throat, and that taste was definitely not pleasant.
The Han army's intentions were obvious, and that was to force the Japanese to abandon the fortress complex in Fukuoka.
The so-called things that the enemy did not want to see, they must insist on it, although they knew what it meant that the supply line of Shimonoseki was cut off, but there were still quite a few people in the Japanese base camp who insisted on the Battle of Fukuoka.
The Han army turned to attack Shimonoseki, obviously dissatisfied with the situation of the Battle of Fukuoka, since the enemy army was dissatisfied, it means that the strategy of the Japanese army is the opposite, so it is necessary to continue to carry it out unswervingly!
It's just that these smart people seem to have forgotten that the Han army had the advantage in the Battle of Fukuoka, and the real headache was the commander-in-chief of Fukuoka, General Yamamoto!
"Yaga! The bunch of fools at the base camp"
Pinching his eyebrows hard, Yamamoto Invincible has no way to relieve his headache at all, and what is even more puzzling is that this is obviously a game world, and he has obviously adjusted the pain to the minimum.
Yamamoto Invincible glanced at Takeda Shingen, who was still slowly shaking the folding fan, looking at his leisurely appearance, he wanted to kill him with a knife, was he laughing? Is it schadenfreude? From the very beginning, Takeda Shingen thought that he would lose the war with the Great Han, and now he is right, but did he guess that his own fate may be about to end?
"Your Excellency the General"
"Hold on!? Hmph, well, then hold on! The herald ordered all the troops to hold on to every inch of their position with the determination to die.1
"But Your Excellency the Admiral"
"Herald 1
"Hi 1 to be continued...
