Chapter Seventy-Three: The Fuso Sea of Imminent Chaos
As the most hostile country around Goryeo, the information that the Fusang Navy had organized a large fleet with two three-masted warships as the core to sail to the Fusang Sea was immediately detected by Goryeo spies and transmitted back to Goryeo. Goryeo did not know about the battle between the Black Sail Pirate Fleet and the Fuso Navy in the Fusang Sea, and the scandal of the defeat of the pirates by the Fusang Navy would not be publicized everywhere, so a fleet of such a size and in the name of inexplicable training immediately caused a shock in the Goryeo Kingdom as soon as it penetrated into the Fusang Sea.
What is the purpose of this fleet?
If it's training, why don't you set sail in such a hurry without preparation?
Who is their imaginary enemy? Rakshasa Pacific Fleet and Goryeo Navy?
What is the scale of the training? Is there only this fleet or is there a follow-up fleet?
Will the Fuso Shikoku Fleet and the Kyushu Fleet participate?
Doubts and more information echoed over the Goryeo Peninsula.
The Fuso people have a tradition of undeclared war, and any movement of them will cause panic in the surrounding area, and the Goryeo people do not dare to be careless about this fleet, and the warships on the east side of the peninsula immediately enter a state of combat readiness, and all captains and sailors stay on the ships on standby. At this time, the town of Qinbian in northern Goryeo was attacked by a large-scale pirate, and two pieces of information came one after another about the movement of the Fuso Grand Fleet in the direction of Goryeo. In the eyes of the Koreans, these two pieces of news have been constantly replenished, and then reminiscent of the historical tricks of the Fuso people, a nominally "chasing pirates across the border", but in fact a large-scale surprise invasion has become a trend of mountain rain.
Fortunately, Goryeo was already a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, and there was no need to place large-scale warships on the west coast, leaving only dhows to be on duty and dealing with pirates. As a result, the Goryeo West Sea Fleet received an urgent order to assemble all warships of the brig and above at the port of Pusan, ready to meet the Fuso Shikoku and Kyushu fleets that might come from the east, protect the Busan Strait between Tsushima Island and Busan, which links the east and west coasts of the Goryeo Peninsula, and ensure that the closest sea area between the two countries would not be used by the Fuso people to land.
As for the lost tortoiseshell ship, the Koreans didn't have the heart to look for it again, and the discerning person knew at a glance that the tortoiseshell ship had been taken by the Han, but they didn't know which force it was. Anyway, Goryeo's consistent national policy is "a small country serves a big country with wisdom", and in the face of the suzerain's suzerain, it is enough to lose a small temper and complain about small grievances, but do you dare to fight each other? Goryeo can still fight by the sea in the face of Fuso, and Goryeo and the Han are just separated by the perennial frozen Yalu River. In fact, if it weren't for the king of Goryeo to declare himself a vassal to the Han Dynasty in time, the king of Youzhou would probably have taken advantage of the aftermath of the Han and Mongolian wars to send the Youzhou army that had just warmed up to the Goryeo Peninsula to open up territory.
Moreover, according to the historical record, Goryeo concentrated all its naval forces against the Fusang navy is also quite unconfident, and at the same time as the fleet is concentrated, a solemn contingent of envoys has already crossed the border in the name of tribute, and this time they will follow the historical route step by step to Luoyang, begging the Han Emperor to send troops to rescue when Goryeo is defeated by Fuso.
The Goryeo Navy, which was playing tricks on the Yellow Sea, was recalled, and Gangzi, who was the source of the incident, of course did not know that he had unknowingly completed the task assigned to him by the Donglai Navy. At this time, the Black Sail Pirate Fleet was approaching the Tsushima Strait, and without Li Youtai always keeping an eye on the news of the two countries, he had been planting flags in the captain's room, and he was preparing the fleet to return to Hong Kong to overhaul the materials on Black Sail Island, but he didn't know that the entire Fuso Sea had been stirred up by himself.
Liang Hong: "Commander, we found a large gathering of Goryeo fleets in front of us, most of them are small sailing ships and many sloops, and their target is the Tsushima Strait, no...... Look at the direction of the Busan Strait. ”
Gangzi immediately teleported the Sea Monster after hearing this, what is this? It's all feat! Why isn't my brother in the past few days, you have started to run business again, haha, I didn't expect my brother to return to have a big meal, although my brother's fleet is broken and tired, and the ammunition is not sufficient, but the navy can't bully Xiao? This is the last part of the road, after crossing the Tsushima Strait, Brother will go straight to Black Sail Island, at this time, you don't care about picking fat and thin, anyone who enters the range of Brother is unlucky.
"Little ones! Give up a gun position, and the commander of this regiment will personally show you a hand! ”
Catching up with a small sailing ship, the Kraken moved its position and adjusted the angle, and Gangzi framed the opponent in his crosshair according to the aiming function in the gunnery, OK, fire.
Rumble!
Looking at the recoil, the fine iron smoothbore cannon is cool to open.
The explosion of gunpowder threw the iron ball inside the barrel out, crossed a parabola in the sky and flew towards the opponent, and plunged into the sea with a thud.
Peng Peng, the other party fired two cannons in a row, and the fart sound made Gangzi despise it.
Ya, dare to resist, I'll fight!
Rumble!
One against two, Gangzi obviously suffered, the area of the brig was large, and after several firefights, the Sea Monster was the first to be bombed.
"Grass, two to one, aren't you bullying people, the whole fleet will push out the cannon for me."
Four warships, all 37 guns on one side were shown, and finally Gangzi thought twice and was reluctant to have limited ammunition, so he asked the Sea Lion to solve it alone, and Liang Hong ordered the Sea Lion to drown the opponent's small sailing boat in the waves with a salvo.
The Sea Lion stepped forward and salvaged the barrels that had burst out, slightly compensating for the consumption of gunpowder, and the fleet continued to pursue its prey.
"Commander, a large number of ships have appeared on the starboard side, among which there are quite a few sloops!" The news came from Zhou Geng, who was the leader of the front.
The repeated ravages of the small galleons had caused Gangzi to lose interest, and the boats fled when they saw the pirate fleets that had ravaged the Tsushima Strait again. Gangzi didn't know that his fleet had been called a bloody pirate, which made many bankrupt players eager to eat it.
Not in the mood to chase the escaped sailboat, Tsuyoko called the Seal to lead the way and headed for the Tsushima Strait.
Hearing that there were three dry goods in Zhou Geng's report, he immediately became excited, the merit given by the dhow is much more than that given by a dozen small sailboats, he praised Zhou Geng's good luck, and asked: "Are you sure there are three dhows?" ”
Zhou Geng reported again: "There are indeed three sloops, but there are a large number of small sailing battle groups on our left and right, and they have already shown their battle flags and headed towards us,"
Gangzi sighed, what a hero! In the face of four brig-class warships, they can still launch a decisive attack, looking at the players in Goryeo and Fuso, only the commander of the fleet in front of him deserves the word "hero".
Gangzi said: Husband hero, although tens of millions of people go to me. This situation made my brother feel sorry for each other, and recalled that the young man was heroic, righteous and angry, for the sister who was not afraid of strong enemies, beat the children, stepped on the kindergarten, and shouted at the gate of the elementary school, "The first grade can go to the two together!" At that time, no one dared to respond, there was the style of Dangyang Bridge, that invincible sense of pleasure, it was really magnificent.
Since you dare to fight with my brother, my brother is embarrassed.
The two fleets soon met and, having reached the range of the guns, turned at the same time to turn their sideboards at each other.
Boom Boom ......
Bang Bang ......Bang
Dozens of thick clouds of smoke billowed up on the surface of the sea.
The artillery battle began, and the roar was the main theme on the sea.
Gangzi took out his scimitar and knocked on the handrail quickly and rhythmically urged: "Speed up, lean on, break up their formation, we have rough skin and thick meat, the small sailboats are all small pounds, hitting us is similar to tickling, ignore them, just pick up his dhow and beat it hard, we are pirates, it has always been my brother who robs others, these people are not good to wait for my brother to rob, and dare to block my brother in a group, we must beat them hard, beat their arrogance, sink their ship, and pee their pants when they see their brother in the future." ”
The small sailing ship belongs to the ship sent by the mission, the load is limited, a total of four gun positions, and only small pound guns can be installed, and the egg-sized projectile has limited damage to the battleship for special combat purposes, so Gangzi encountered a lone small sailing ship, and dared to use a cannon to shoot at the small sailing boat.
This time, the opponent is also a big man, wanting to use a large number of small sailing ships to squeeze the pirate battleship and force the opponent to reduce its speed, and then its three sloops quickly approach, relying on the advantage of numbers, one by one. In their calculations, it is true that they will lose a lot of money if they can fight themselves like this, but if they can grab a brig, it will be worth it.
Can...... None of them had officially experienced more than one battleship-class naval battle, and the tactics they developed were speculation on paper.
The Black Sail Pirate Fleet slammed into the opposing formation's formation with a cannon blast as it zigagged, relying on a hull that exceeded several grades.
"Set fire to the dhow battleship first, I heard that there was a stupid fork recently bought a dhow battleship for 150,000 gold, my brother has to live the addiction of throwing 150,000 gold into the sea today, keep the speed of the ship, don't ask the small sailboat to come up and jump to help ,......, big fart ship, you have the ability to jump up?"
The Black Sail Pirate Fleet rushed into the enemy fleet group, there were two small sailing ships that could not dodge, and were directly knocked over at sea, in the midst of the enemy formation, all the guns of the Black Sail Pirate Fleet can exert their power, and they are frequently fired in a circle in a C shape, and the sloop battleship has ten cannons, and the iron smoothbore guns can fire 9-pound shells, which can already threaten the brigs, and they first become the target of the pirates.
Boom Boom ......
Bang Bang ......Bang
The artillery was loaded with bayonets, and at such a close distance, the hit was greatly improved, and the Black Sail Pirate fleet was constantly shot, and at the same time sent ships to the bottom of the sea.
The little sailboat kept firing at the brig that was many times larger than itself, but the cannonballs could not penetrate the thick planks of the battleship, even if they wanted to lean up and fight hand-to-hand, they only realized that their thin hull could not withstand the gentle rubbing of the other party when they got close. All the attacks of the galleons were in vain, but the temptation of the brigs kept all the galleons from leaving the battlefield, in the delusion that they would be able to board the pirate ships.
