Chapter 549: The Fisherman Profits

PS: (Happy Chinese New Year to all brothers and sisters)

Chen Hao suddenly felt that Togo Heihachiro was too understanding, and he was afraid that he would be bored when he came to play soy sauce, so he actually sent a hundred small ships to ravage him. The point is that Commander Dongxiang did Chen Hao a great favor by doing this, these warships came to harass him, and he had a good reason not to rescue the Russian Pacific Fleet.

Heihachiro Togo is not a fool either, he sent small warships out for fear that the Cam Ranh Bay fleet would join the battlefield, and he had to do so. It's just that this practice makes it reasonable for Chen Hao to sell his teammates, Chen Hao has planned to pit the Russians from the beginning, and is ready to completely turn his face with the Russians. Now it seems that there is no need to quarrel with the Russians, and the follow-up plan should be appropriately revised.

Vizofort was furious when he learned that the Cam Ranh Bay fleet could not be rescued in time, but no matter how angry he was, he had to order the fleet to break out. Heihachiro Togo had long made up his mind to fight to the death, and finally completed the encirclement of the Russian fleet, and of course he would not let the Russians evacuate easily. Standing on the deck of the "King Kong", he found that the Russians were preparing to leave the battlefield, and he gave the order to intercept the Russian warship at any cost.

After the Russian navy found that it could not break through, when faced with a desperate situation, it broke out with extremely strong combat effectiveness and began to fight with the Japanese. Seeing this situation, Vizofort also gave up his intention to retreat, calmed down and commanded the fleet to confront the Japanese, and the naval battle between the two sides became fierce again.

The Russian allies were desperate, and Chen Hao had to say something, so he ordered the fleet to move in the direction of the battlefield. The Japanese player, who had been praying that the Cam Ranh Bay fleet would not attack, received a system prompt at this time and could only stop the Cam Ranh Bay fleet with all their might. With these mosquito ships, they couldn't shake a giant like the Emperor Wu of Han, but these small ships were extremely flexible, and it would take a lot of time for the Cam Ranh Bay fleet to completely wipe them out.

Chen Hao was not in a hurry at all, he ordered Chen Shaokuan to be responsible for commanding the fleet to fight. Explain Chen Shaokuan's "safety first". It is more effective against this kind of small warship, the old armored cruiser, which is equipped with a large number of small-caliber secondary guns, and can take out a Japanese player's warship in a single salvo.

As night fell, it took the Cam Ranh Bay fleet four hours to finally clear out the 100 warships of the Japanese players. He ordered a telegram to be sent to the Russian commander Vizofutte, stating that the Cam Ranh Bay fleet had wiped out the Japanese Inhuman fleet. They will soon rush to the battlefield to support the Russian friendly forces.

At this time, Vizofort was already on his way back, the Russo-Japanese naval battle had ended, and only two Russian capital ships remained. The Russians lost three battleships and three Invincible-class battlecruisers, as well as more than two dozen old ships. Wizofert's flagship narrowly escaped, and an Invincible-class battlecruiser escaped the battlefield with high speed.

The losses of the Japanese were not small, two of their Dreadnought-class battleships, one Invincible-class battlecruiser were sunk, and one other battlecruiser was seriously injured. However, in the end, the Japanese won the naval battle, the main force of the Japanese fleet was still there, and the powerful Russian Pacific Navy completely lost its combat effectiveness.

Both capital ships from which the Russians escaped were seriously wounded. It needs to be overhauled before it can be put into battle, and the Russian Pacific Fleet is already dead in name. Without the threat of the Russian navy, the Japanese navy could send large quantities of supplies and personnel to Korea, and could also send marines to open up a second battlefield, or it would not be long before the Russo-Japanese War, which lasted for five years, would be over.

Vizofort had been dismissed from his post by the Tsar and was about to stand trial when he returned home, so he was furious when he received the telegram from Cam Ranh Bay. However, he did not dare to be angry, and the Tsar made it clear to him when he dismissed him. If he can enlist the help of the Cam Ranh Bay Fleet, he can save Russia from an unfavorable situation in Asia. Consideration will be given to not holding him accountable for the defeat.

Wizofort telegraphed back to Chen Hao: "Commander Chen, the naval battle between our country and the Japanese has ended, and the Pacific Fleet has almost been wiped out. At present, our country has no navy in the Pacific, and the Japanese will definitely use their maritime superiority to attack Korea. ”

"What a pity! Damn the Japanese Inhuman fleet stalled for time, so I couldn't support your country in the first place. Your Excellency the Commander, rest assured. I also have a certain responsibility for the destruction of your navy, and the Cam Ranh Bay Fleet will do its best to help your country during the period when your country is rebuilding the Pacific Fleet. ”

When he received the telegram, he was a little stunned, he didn't have much hope, thinking that most of the Chinese would refuse. The Russian Pacific Fleet has been destroyed. The Cam Ranh Bay Navy continued to form an alliance with Russia, which amounted to fighting the Japanese Navy alone for the sake of Russian interests.

Chen Hao agreed so quickly that Vizofort couldn't believe it, and he called back to confirm: "Commander Chen, do you mean that there will be warships to fully assist our country in the fight against the Japanese?" ”

Chen Hao said with great certainty: "Of course! I have cooperated with your country many times, so I will firmly support your country in continuing to fight Japan. My fleet will soon rush to the battlefield to pursue the Japanese Navy, and I will send Marines to land at the port of Inchon to assist your country in cutting off the naval retreat of the Japanese Seventh Army. ”

Vyzofort excitedly reported the news to the Tsar, who sent a telegram to Cam Ranh Bay to express his heartfelt thanks and said that in order to rebuild the Pacific Fleet, he would propose to increase military spending to purchase super dreadnoughts from Cam Ranh Bay. After receiving the Tsar's telegram, Chen Hao's mouth smiled crookedly, this selling teammates was also too cool, selling the Russians and helping to count the money!

Chen Hao was able to get such a benefit mainly because of Heihachiro Togo, the strategy of Commander Dongxiang ordering the player's small warships to harass the Cam Ranh Bay team and prevent the Cam Ranh Bay fleet from joining the battlefield was absolutely correct. However, Heihachiro Togo won tactically, but strategically lost completely.

The Cam Ranh Bay fleet has nothing to lose and can keep the Russians trusting. After Chen Hao once again promised to continue the alliance with Russia, it was not of much strategic significance for Togo Heihachiro to win this battle, and in the case of the weakening of the Japanese navy, the Cam Ranh Bay Fleet assisted the Russians in defense, and the Japanese still did not have maritime superiority.

The Cam Ranh Bay fleet sped up and rushed to the place of the battle between Japan and Russia, and Heihachiro Togo, who was directing the cleaning of the battlefield, sneered: "Sure enough, as I expected, the Huaxia people want to come and pick up the bargain like last time, how can I give him this opportunity?" ”

Heihachiro Togo ordered the heavily damaged warships to immediately retreat to the country, and all the other warships returned later. The detachment escorting the troop transports to Inchon changed course and returned to the country for rest and recuperation, and then left for Incheon after the Cam Ranh Bay fleet left. He was ready to take the opportunity of the great victory to ask the country to put pressure on the Qing State and give up certain interests to let the Qing State restrain Chen Baxian's Cam Ranh Bay fleet.

Not long after the Japanese Navy returned, Chen Hao led the fleet to the battlefield, and after a while, Chen Shaokuan came to him and said: "My lord, the Japanese are very slippery, and most of us can't catch up." ”

Chen Hao laughed and said: "This is a war between Russia and Japan, and it has nothing to do with us?" I wasn't ready to chase after me. Houfu, you immediately lead the detachment to Inchon and station, and then no matter how fierce the Japanese attack is, before the Japanese Seventh Army is completely annihilated by the Russians, you must firmly hold Inchon in your hands. ”

Chen Shaokuan understood Chen Hao's plan after a little thought, and he gave a thumbs up and said, "My lord is smart!" As a result, Japan and Russia became evenly matched again, and the war could continue. ”

Chen Hao shook his head and said: "I can't say for sure, there is a balance between Japan and Russia again, but they shouldn't be able to fight." Japan's domestic economy was on the verge of collapse, and the activities of the Red Party elements in Russia were becoming more and more frequent, and both countries had reasons for an armistice. What we can do is to consume as much of the national strength of the two countries as possible, win more time for our country to develop, and prevent these two evil neighbors from making trouble. ”

After Chen Shaokuan led the fleet to garrison Incheon Port and completely cut off the retreat of the Japanese Seventh Army, Chen Hao on the warship received a system prompt: "Player Chen Baxian, congratulations on your participation in the Russo-Japanese naval battle, you achieved the strategic goal with minimal losses in this naval battle, congratulations on increasing your strategic command attribute by 2 points." ”

"Player Chen Baxian, due to your excellent strategic performance in the Russo-Japanese naval battle, congratulations on your comprehension of the skill 'Fisherman's Profit'."

Fisherman's Profit: (Beginner 0/100) When there is a strategic confrontation, the system has a 30% chance to remind you of the best way to deal with it, allowing you to get the maximum political and military benefits.

Chen Hao smiled slightly when he received the task prompt, this reward was expected by him, and he didn't feel strange at all. The system's command judgment on the player will take into account all factors, and although he is playing soy sauce in this war, he has obtained the greatest benefits strategically.

Although his strategic command has reached 84 points, the system still does not hesitate to add 2 points to this point. The skill of Fisherman's Profit is also very good, and it is a skill that can be classified as both a scheming and a commander. Multi-party relationships can be political relations between countries, or strategic military confrontations, and players who are the boss themselves encounter this situation very often, so this skill can be useful many times.

Heihachiro Togo, who returned to Japan, was silent for a long time after learning that the Cam Ranh Bay Fleet had occupied Incheon, and sighed dejectedly and said: "It turns out that the Chinese are learning from the British, maintaining the balance of power between our country and Russia, and letting our country and the Russians continue to fight. We can't go on like this, and I would suggest that the base camp negotiate peace with Russia, and now the Qing Kingdom and Cam Ranh Bay are our worst enemies. ”

The proposal of the Russian Tsar Nicholas II to rebuild the Pacific Fleet and increase military spending to order super dreadnoughts was firmly opposed by the Duma. Although Kulopatkin was about to annihilate the Japanese Seventh Army in Korea, in the face of the deteriorating situation at home, the Tsar also had the idea of armistice and peace with Japan.
