Chapter Seventy-Eight: Attacking Position No. 1

The previous confrontation gave the Lingxiao Legion ample time to build fortifications on Jeju Island, and the village of Stars was upgraded to a town, and two forts near the sea were prioritized, all of which were equipped with refurbished iron smoothbore guns provided by the Lingxiao Legion. Four temporary artillery positions were also built in the perimeter, and at the top of the 20-meter-high earth slope was a wall made of logs and stones, and the semicircular fortifications could control the angle of fire at 180 degrees, and each temporary battery could accommodate 20 field guns, while ensuring that at least 10 guns could be covered at every angle.

In terms of the number of ships, the Northern Fleet occupies a disadvantage, and all the operational plans of the General Staff Department are formulated around these two batteries and four temporary artillery positions, and the most basic principle of the operation is that the warships will never go out of the coverage of the anti-Japanese guns on the shore, and the battlefield will be fixed on the coastal coast, and the battlefield is so big, even if the Fuso fleet has more warships, there are only so many that can be put into it. The Northern Fleet, aided by shore-based artillery, had the advantage of a local battlefield.

Of course, the Fuso fleet knew that it would be detrimental to their side to fight along the coast of Xingchen Town, and when their large ship group reached the sea off Xingchen Town, they did not advance, but sent a dhow to come forward and provoke outside the range of the battery.

"Isn't the Sky Fleet known as the strongest in Asia? Why don't you dare to come out this time? It is necessary to rely on the shelter of the fort, and the two Chinese characters of 'shame', we Fuso people can write it, will you? I won't talk nonsense to you, I am the weakest warship of our Fuso fleet, which of you dares to come out and fight me alone! A huge Han country, it can't even be that people don't have this guts......"

The Fuso warship cruised back and forth between the two armies. Non-stop abusive challenges. The captains of the Northern Fleet were filled with righteous indignation, and they all asked the commander-in-chief of the Northern Fleet to fight in the angry sea, and they must beat the arrogance of the Fuso players.

The angry sea fought and reprimanded: "What are you all called? The Fuso Three Kingdoms game is played too much. Now I'm role-playing 'One Ride', and no one is allowed to fight, so you should watch the monkey, and if anyone feels uncomfortable listening to it, the interpreter will be turned off. ”

Then the angry sea battle said to the commanders of the fleets: "This sloop is the bait given to us by the Fuso fleet, if we are lured out by them, we will want to win again if we win." If we lose the battle, we will have to turn the tables in order to save face, and if we fight, we may not be able to control the scale and scope, and wait until some of our warships are out of the protection of the battery. The Fuso Fleet is rushing up, do we save it or not? ”

Everyone nodded yes, and the angry sea battle continued: "You also need to do your best to appease your subordinate captains and stay in your own combat zone. Don't be provoked by the words of your enemies. "The Art of War" cloud: "The Lord must not be angry with the teacher, and the will not be discouraged and cause war", being a man, doing business, and fighting are all the same, and those who are swayed by their emotions must be losers. Besides, the more happy the Fuso players are, the more it shows that my tactics are making them uncomfortable, and when their emotions are out of control, it is time to counterattack. ”

As a successful venture capitalist outside of the game, patience and energy are his greatest strengths. Calm momentum plus a little bit of eloquence. The bosses were swept away by the anger caused by the Fuso player's provocation, and then looked at the Fuso sloop. It's really like a monkey.

The Fuso fleet's lure plan was unsuccessful, and until nightfall, not a single battleship of the Han Northern Fleet sailed out to meet it. After nightfall, the Northern Fleet lit bonfires at various high points on the land, and then used mirrors to reflect the light of the fire to scan the sea back and forth, plus the sloops and dinghies sent to patrol, so as not to give the Fuso fleet any chance to sneak attack.

The next day, the Fuso fleet continued to send people to provoke, and the Northern Fleet remained unmoved. Just two days later, the Fusang fleet also saw that the Han Northern Fleet was preparing to defend to the death, and in the absence of other good methods, the Fusang fleet launched an attack.

Due to the calculation of the last attack on Lingxiao Harbor by the three thousand honliu cherry blossoms, there was a gap between the two legions of the Fuso fleet, and this time Kondo the god took the initiative to undertake the task of the main attack in order to calm the estrangement with the three thousand honliu cherry blossoms. On the frontal battlefield, the Tosa fleet was in charge of the feint, and the Kondo Mijin and Owari fleet were mainly attacking the leftmost temporary artillery position on the defensive line of Jeju Island, that is, the No. 1 position.

Attacking from this place, the Northern Fleet had the weakest roadbed firepower, and the Fuso Fleet only needed to face the threat of Position 1, Position 2 and Left Battery on the defense line of Jeju Island, and if the distance was mastered, the threat of Position 2 and Left Battery would not need to be considered.

The movement of the Fusang fleet was immediately detected by the battle of the angry sea, and the first position was the defense area of the Jizhou Guild fleet, where ten brigs led by Shining Red Star were stationed.

Shining Red Star can be said to be the old enemy of the Lingxiao Legion, when the Lingxiao Legion was still a college alliance, the two sides fought a battle on the Bohai Sea, and later the Han Civil War, the two sides also clashed many times on land. But the shining red star was indeed unlucky, the sea was disturbed by Gangzi and Tang Yao, the battle was defeated, and two dhow warships that were quite valuable at that time were lost. Later, Huacai established the Lingxiao Legion, but the Shining Red Star never got the legion order, and the land without the legion is not the opponent of the Lingxiao Legion.

The estuary of the Bohai Sea was controlled by the Lingxiao Fleet and the Green Forest Fleet, and the lifeblood of the Multi-Star Guild was pinched, and the Shining Red Star had to swallow his anger, apologize to the University Alliance, and recognize the status of the Lingxiao Fleet in the Dahan Sea, so that the Multi-Star Guild was able to get out of the Bohai Sea.

To be honest, this time Shiny Red Star was able to bring so many warships to Jeju Island to support, it was indeed a big surprise to Huacai, after all, the nature of women is called Huacai, and after the two sides reconciled, they still wore small shoes to the Multistar Guild a few times. Under the righteousness, Shining Red Star was so disregarding the past suspicions, it was very ashamed to call Huacai, and after personally coming to the door to apologize, he put forward a proposal for an alliance between the two sides, not wanting Shining Red Star to refuse, "Wait until I get the legion order and establish the legion." ”

For the Lingxiao Legion, the Shining Red Star does have a lot of complaints, or there are also elements of jealousy, but in the defense system of Jeju Island, he did his best, even if the angry sea battle in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the fleet, proposed that the Jizhou fleet be temporarily incorporated into the Lingxiao fleet and arrange the captain of the Lingxiao fleet with naval combat experience to the captain position of the battleship, it was also a nod and cooperate.

This time the Fuso fleet invaded westward. Shining Red Star and the ten brigs he led were covered by the No. 1 position, and Kondo Mijin happened to choose the No. 1 position as the breakthrough point, and the two sides opened the first battle of the Jeju Island defensive battle.

The battle begins. Sixty brigs of the Owari fleet spread out over the sea and rushed up against the No. 1 position. Shining Red Star immediately ordered the Jizhou fleet to meet it, and the ten brigs moved back and forth along the coastline in a straight line, and the Fuso fleet had to enter the shelling range of the No. 1 position if it wanted to attack them.

In addition, due to the influence of the coastline environment, it is impossible for all the 60 brigs of the Owari fleet to participate in the attack on the Jizhou fleet, and due to the limitation of the angle of the ship's guns, the Owari fleet can have 30 brigs at the longest distance of the naval gun's range to attack the Jizhou fleet, but the hit rate is not flattering. It's completely a fight for character, and the potential energy of the cannonball at such a distance is greatly reduced, and even if it hits, it won't cause much damage.

As the attack distance gets closer. The fewer warships the Owari fleet could put into battle, and according to the calculations of the logistics department, the Owari fleet could only have fifteen brigs capable of effectively firing at the Jishu fleet at the optimal distance for attack and defense. And these fifteen brigs not only had to face the attack of ten Jizhou warships. Also to withstand the threat of twenty field guns from the shore.

After formulating tactics, the Owari fleet did not wait for the Jizhou fleet for a long time, and sixty brigs lined up in an oval ring formation, rotating and pressing up to the No. 1 position.

The tactics of the Owari fleet are clear, that is, wheel warfare.

On the offensive side, although the Owari fleet could only put in fifteen brigs, on the defensive side, the shelling of the Jizhou fleet and the No. 1 position could call sixty brigs to withstand it. So. Wounds for wounds, the Owari fleet can fight the Jizhou fleet with minimal losses. Take the number one position.

The Owari fleet swirled forward, and after entering the attack range of the No. 1 position, the twenty fine-iron smoothbore guns of the temporary artillery position immediately opened fire. Twenty black dots crossed the long sea and smashed at the Owari fleet, but this kind of extreme distance attack really looked at the character, and the first round of twenty shells did not even enter the Owari fleet twenty meters, and all fell into the sea.

After the first round of shelling, the artillery on the position urgently reloaded, anyway, it is convenient for them to supply on land, and they don't care whether they hit or not, it is normal to be inaccurate, and it is earned if they are accurate, at least hearing the sound of their own artillery can also improve morale.

As the distance narrowed, the Jizhou fleet also began to launch its own artillery bombardment against the Owari fleet, the Owari fleet continued to drop shells to correspond with cannonballs, after marching to the best position, the Owari fleet rotated on the spot, just fifteen brigs could carry out artillery bombardment on the Jizhou fleet at the same time, and the fleet was outside the range of the No. 2 position and the left battery, and the artillery shells of the Jizhou fleet and the No. 1 position were scattered by sixty brigs.

The battle in the Angry Sea under the command of the Chinese army has been paying attention to the battle at the No. 1 position, and the tactics used by the Owari fleet are indeed exquisite, and the Jizhou fleet will definitely be wiped out after a long time, but the Han Northern Fleet is not unprepared.

Ten brigs were guarding each of the four positions on the outskirts of Star Town, and the remaining twenty-seven brigs remained as reserves inside the harbor.

Seeing that the Owari fleet was playing wheel warfare, the angry sea battle immediately sent seven brigs to the sea area of the No. 2 position, "If there are warships that are seriously damaged and not easy to fight, they should be replaced quickly, and we must always keep our ten brigs in the sea area of the No. 1 position." ”

"Swap tactics vs. wheel tactics, it's definitely going to be a protracted battle."

In the southern waters of the Yellow Sea, Gangzi drove his new ship to anchor in the sea, following the battle on Jeju Island through the Legion channel.

The brig, named the Sea Whale, was all sailors from the Navy, and unlike the loose pirates and random maritime sailors, the Navy had strict maritime regulations, and whenever there was a free sailor, the boatswain would take the sailors who were not on duty to clean the warship and keep the deck clean at all times. This made Gangzi, who had been used to walking and tripping over cables, extremely uncomfortable, "If you don't roll three times a day, you don't feel like you're on a boat." ”

The eight identical ships moored around the Sea Whale showed not only that they were newly built, but that the sailors on these ships were all navy. (To be continued......)
