Chapter 226: Combat Training in the Navy
Locke agreed to the conditions of the Five Kingdoms, which also made the Five Kingdoms breathe a sigh of relief, and what they were most afraid of was that Locke opened his mouth to ask for territory. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
If Locke asks for territory, even if they don't want to fight with the Senna army, then the people in the country and the soldiers of the army will not agree, at any time, territory is the most important thing in a kingdom, far more valuable than gold coins or something!
And the compensation of 10 million for military expenses in each kingdom, although it is a bit painful, but they can't afford it, and every province can pick out the tax revenue of one year!
The two sides reached an agreement on this matter, and the Locke Ban Division returned, and then while waiting for the indemnity of the Five Kingdoms, he went to the Longjiang River Wharf to check the results of the training of those naval soldiers in the past few days.
Locke had already taught many naval officers how to operate and use these advanced warships when he left, and in the past few days since Locke left, these officers have taught many naval officers how to use and operate these warships.
The soldiers will operate, everyone knows their duty position, everyone knows what they want to do, then this fleet can run normally!
Once the fleet was up and running, Locke was about to start training his soldiers for proficiency.
Because it's not enough for them to just learn how to control these things, for example, a naval gun, you just have to learn how to manipulate it to shoot the cannonballs, you also have to learn how to hit the enemy's ships!
And actual combat is the best way to train!
No matter what era, no matter which kingdom, there will be no shortage of robbers and bandits, especially in these backward places, there are even more of them!
After Locke took over, the Holman Kingdom implemented a series of policies, and there were very few bandits of all kinds, but few did not mean that they were all extinct.
So this time, Locke planned to take this fleet that had just been formed and wipe out all the bandits on both sides of the Longjiang River.
Not only that, but Locke has bigger goals and ideas!
The Longjiang River flows down the river through the Kingdom of Slok and the Kingdom of Isaac, one of the five kingdoms, before flowing into the sea from the territory of the Southern Alliance.
Therefore, Locke wanted to take advantage of this training to show off his strength by sending the fleet to the Isaac Kingdom, and bring back the war reparations from the five kingdoms by the way.
After all these are done, they have brought back the money, the training of the soldiers has been done, and the combat effectiveness has also been improved, and by the way, this waterway can be opened, so that they can directly attack the Southern Alliance downstream!
When Locke wanted to take his soldiers out for actual combat training, the soldiers of the Senna Navy cheered.
Looking at their huge ironclad battleship, they had long wanted to drive out to show off, and now that Locke was going to take them out for actual combat training, it would be strange for them to be unhappy.
What's more, they were all learning how to use various equipment before, such as those gunboats, which were so powerful and majestic, but they learned it, and the commander didn't let them fight, which just made them itch in their hearts.
Now that they are going out to fight, then they can see what kind of power these huge gunboats can have, and they can see it with their own eyes, or control these naval guns with their own hands, these will be the capital they can brag about for the rest of their lives!
Just do it, Locke let them rest for a day, and set off the next day.
Although this time it was for the people of the Holman Kingdom to eradicate these scourges, Locke did not let the infantry of the Senna Army follow, otherwise those bandits would have run away if they knew that the Senna Army was going to deal with them.
When the bandits ran out, they would not be able to achieve the purpose of training, so Locke played the banner of patrolling the rivers and 'visiting' the kingdom of Isaac by the way.
Locke's banner did not alert the bandits in the Holman Kingdom, but made the Isaacs thousands of miles away nervous for a long time.
They've signed a treaty with the Senna, and now Locke is going to bring someone over to 'visit' them, what's going on!
Later, after Locke knew that his slogan was misunderstood by others, he also hinted that the Five Kingdoms had accepted the indemnity in the past, and asked them to move the gold coins to be paid to the Senna Army to the largest dock in the Isaac Kingdom to wait for the Senna Army.
And Locke had not gone far with the naval forces before they arrived near the lair of a bandit on the Longjiang River that they had secretly discovered.
"Boposa, the helicopter flies over and sees, can you find out a little more specific!"
Locke didn't intend to exterminate the bandits, who were so cunning that it would be a waste of his time to kill them all.
Now it's enough to scare them out of their hearts by letting Poposa scout their specific dens, and then reward them with a cannonball, cripple them, and let them know that the Senna Army is already watching them.
And now Locke's fleet is equipped with six Aegis-class destroyers, all of which use helicopter lifts, that is, Locke can carry helicopters to go out together.
In this case, the fleet of the Sena Army is a combination of sea and air, and when necessary, these fleets can also be used as troop carriers, at that time, this fleet will be a combination of land, sea and air, which is very powerful when you think about it!
Poposa flew quickly towards the location given by the previous intelligence in an Apache helicopter, and all he needed to do was test the coordinates of the bandits' den and send it to Locke, who was bombarding the coordinates transmitted back by Bobossa with naval guns.
Two minutes later, Locke was able to see the coordinates that Poposa had transmitted back.
There was no need to make any more stops, and the battleships of the fleet did not even need to stop, and still headed downstream at the same speed.
"According to the coordinates given, bombardment, remember, with naval guns, all ships with naval guns will come and fire!"
The bandit den is not very large, and this group of bandits is only the scale of a hundred or so people, which is not large, but now that Locke wants to train his troops, he will definitely let all the naval guns on the battleship have to fire.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
On the fleet, whether it is a medium-sized frigate or destroyer, or a small frigate and minelayer, the ones on it are all equipped with naval guns, but the size of the mouth is different.
Hundreds of guns fired shells at one place, and unsurprisingly, that bandit den would be razed to the ground!
Although Locke didn't want to kill them all at first, but now that this is the case, let him go with the wind......
