Chapter 1110: Lushun Mouth
This black smoke slowly rose into the air, like a black dragon entrenched between heaven and earth, which was particularly conspicuous in the clear sky, and it was afraid that it could be seen more than ten miles away. Obviously, this was not an occasional fire in the mountains and forests, but the wolf smoke set off by the police at the sentry on the mountain, and the Houjin army obviously did not ignore such an excellent observation point as Lao Tieshan, and deployed manpower at a high place to monitor the situation at sea. Haihan's fleet came from the south, and it was not a good way to come at first glance, and the Houjin sentinels on the mountain naturally wanted to immediately warn the rear when they saw it.
"These wild boar skins, the vigilance is still quite high!" Wang Tom was also a little moved when he saw this, Houjin attached great importance to coastal defense, and it seemed that most of them would deploy troops of a certain size in the Lushun area behind Lao Tieshan.
However, the main purpose of Wang Tom's trip was to conduct on-the-spot reconnaissance of Lushunkou, and if the Houjin army wanted to take countermeasures against Haihan, it would be just against Wang Tom's appetite. After going north to Shandong this time, the army took care of several large and small battles, and the navy did not take any credit. He also deliberately sent the exploration-class warship to assist the army in the upper reaches of the Jiahe River, but the opponent's Wanjia army was too weak to enter the range of naval guns, and in the end, the navy still did not fire a single shot, and could only play the role of a mascot.
Wang Tom was naturally unwilling to let his officers and men continue to do nothing, and he planned this operation to investigate the Bohai Strait and the Liaodong Peninsula in the north, in fact, it was also to find something to do for the navy. Haihan was able to complete the infrastructure project of the Zhifuwan base this year, and he did not have the strength to cross the sea to launch a formal attack on the Liaodong Peninsula, but Wang Tom still hoped that there would be an opportunity for the navy to train its troops and not to lose its ability to fight. Moreover, the strength of the Houjin maritime armed forces is far inferior to that of the Ming Dynasty, and it should be a pleasant thing to pinch this soft persimmon from time to time and keep the Houjin army busy for a while.
The sea side of Lao Tieshan was full of cliffs, and there was no suitable terrain for docking ships, so Wang Tom ordered the fleet to turn northeast and continue along the eastern coast of the Liaodong Peninsula. About five nautical miles from here is Lushunkou, an important harbor at the southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula.
In the fourth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, that is, in 1371, the Ming generals Ma Yun and Ye Wang led the army from Dengzhou, Shandong Province to land here by boat across the sea, because the voyage was smooth sailing, so the old name of the lion mouth here was renamed Lushun mouth, and it was used as such.
The harbor of Lushunkou is located in the middle of the mountains, there is the Golden Mountain in the east, the Baiyu Mountain in the north, and the Tiger Tail Peninsula in the west. Of course, in the current Xiaoice period, whether the sea surface in the port will freeze in winter depends on the actual situation to determine.
If Zhifu Bay is more suitable for building a civilian trade and immigration port, then Lushunkou, located on the Liaodong Peninsula, is undoubtedly one of the best choices for a military port. The topography of this place presents a semi-closed structure, wide inside and narrow outside, and there are commanding heights on both sides of the channel in and out of the port, which is naturally easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can be regarded as the favorite military port terrain of the Haihan military. Tom Wang's interest in this place even exceeds that of Dalian Bay, which is a larger harbor to the north.
