Chapter Ninety-Nine: Nakasa Ito
readx;?“ No matter what you think, Guangchen's arrogance is irrefutable, and Li Pan's ability in military command is believed to be recognized by everyone, through the intelligence sent back by our spy personnel from Guangchen, this Li Ang is still better than Li Pan back then, so he and Long Baixing will inevitably become an obstacle that cannot be ignored on the road of the empire's westward expedition, or they are now an obstacle to the empire. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yuan Jing took out a report and sent it down, which was full of information about Li Ang, especially his series of performances in Yanzhou over the years with Luo Shengren were highlighted.
"The level of the commander directly determines the combat effectiveness of a fleet, so as long as it is confirmed that he is indeed visiting Correa now, then we should launch an attack on Long Baixing." are all veterans who have experienced the battle of Guangluo twenty years ago, no one will think that this is Yuan Jing making a big fuss, Guangchen is stronger than Sangyi in terms of the combat power of the warship, the quality of the soldiers and the level of command, and the two sons of Dongxiang Congdao died under Li Pan's double-knife formation tactics when they were superior in strength, and they have a very clear understanding of this.
"This fang is indeed a henchman of the empire, not only has a hand in the command and operation of the fleet, but also is quite powerful in the force and swordsmanship, as strong as Aoki-sensei finally died under his sword." Fushimi Palace Akimasa and Aoki Junya's master-apprentice relationship is very deep, the news of Aoki Junya's death came that he didn't eat for a day and a night, and among all the people present, he had the strongest hatred for Li Ang, "Now Nosk has not been conquered by the Guangchen people, so Long Baixing is still hanging alone, this time I am afraid it will be the best time to get rid of him, and I must not let it go." ”
Yuan Jing took out the report that the Emperor had already read it, and this time he couldn't help but flip it over, he did have the problem of both ends of the first rat, but this did not mean that he lacked the basic vision to see the overall situation, and finally made up his mind after sitting for a long time, "Admiral Shimamura Slow Male listened to the order, and today appointed Shimamura Slow Male as the commander of the westward dispatch army, this order, the Emperor of the Sangyi Empire is here." I ask the general to lead the 2nd and 3rd Wing of the Navy to report to the Zhuhama Port Naval Base within three days, and then I will personally do the pre-battle mobilization, and the success or failure of this battle will be left to the general. ”
The battle against Long Baixing is very crucial, only after winning this battle can Sang Yi dare to sit at the negotiating table with Guangchen, and use this victory as the confidence to demand equal treatment, otherwise he will be slaughtered and cut flesh and bloodied, and it is very easy to shake the foundation of the country. As for fighting a protracted battle with the Guangchen Republic with a clear sword and a gun, I didn't even think about it now, David launched a charge at the Goliath giant, which is called courage to say nicely, and if you tell the truth, you are simply stupid, and if you smash the giant with a stone, you will knock the giant unconscious, what a stupid fool can believe.
"Hello!" Shimamura took the order slowly, but the look of surprise on his face hadn't completely subsided. Shimamura never thought that he would become the commander-in-chief of this battle from the moment he entered the door, there were many people who were stronger than him and more qualified than him, but the appointment of the commander fell on his head.
This battle is a great opportunity to climb upward, and after the announcement of the appointment of the present, some people can't help but turn their attention to Shimamura Slow Bird, who originally did not have a strong presence, this appointment seems strange, but behind it reflects the unwillingness to compromise with the young Zhuang faction.
Now that we have made up our minds, what will follow is a more than 10-hour combat exercise, in which everyone present is a high-achieving student who graduated from the Haida University, the Haihai Academy, and the Command Academy, and a group of people gather together to continuously simulate and strive to perfect the operational plan that has been formulated before. The attack on Long Baixing was only a local battle, but its impact on the overall situation was very far-reaching, and they could not afford to be cautious.
"The plan of attacking from both sides is not advisable, it can only be released as a smoke bomb, the fleet that has already bypassed Jeju is better to lure the fleet of the Gwangchen people to search for them and distract them, while our main force will attack from the near side with all its strength and conquer the newly built fulcrum fortress in one go." The plan that Shimamura came up with was basically the final decision, and everyone present, including the current emperor, agreed.
"Then please wait for the good news, I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's orders and the expectations of the Empire." Shimamura made a solemn statement, showing his confidence. In terms of ability, here sits the same Haida chief Ishihara Shinichi, and in terms of seniority, here sits the three dynasties veteran Togo to Dao, he can only be said to be this commander now, and in order not to make everyone dissatisfied, he has to take out the posture he should take.
The meeting did not end until dawn, and the military and political bigwigs who had died countless brain cells did not stay long, not in a hurry to go home to make up for sleep, but to prepare for the war.
"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty has handed over the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Westward Fleet to Admiral Shimamura this time, making it clear that he does not trust you." After Fushimi Miyakomasa returned to the mansion, he immediately convened a countermeasures meeting, and gathered all his cronies, and Minuchi and Ando Teru were also impressively listed, their military ranks were not high but they were all young, they were born in a military family, and they were guaranteed to be loyal, and it was Minuchi who spoke at this time.
"How can you discuss the imperial brother's decision?" Fushimi Miyakomasa was very dissatisfied, but his dissatisfaction was not because he didn't agree with Minuchihiko's words, but because he didn't like Minuchihiko ignoring the superiority and humility and talking about the head of the country behind his back, "You all discuss what to do next." ”
"Hello!" Minuchi bowed and apologized.
"Without the opportunity to fight, there is no way for the young generation like us to move forward, Your Majesty is unwilling to reuse the Young Zhuang faction, if His Royal Highness can win such an opportunity for us, we will definitely get a lot of support." Ando Hui glanced at Fushimi Miya's expression, and saw that he had no special reaction before continuing, "I believe that the future of the empire should be bright, and it should also belong to young adults." ”
"Yaga! At this juncture, letting His Royal Highness the Prince run to His Majesty to express his opinion on military affairs will only make His Highness suspicious, what is your intention in making such a proposal? Without waiting for Fushimi Gong Xiaozheng to make a statement, Tachibana immediately jumped up to oppose it, his concept has always been conservative, and he hopes to do everything steadily.
Ando Hui was scolded "Red deer (if you don't know, please Baidu yourself)" but he was not annoyed, he still looked calm, "Now is indeed a sensitive moment, but if Your Highness doesn't say anything or do anything, it will make Your Majesty even more suspicious, right?" ”
"Indeed......" I know a lot about my brother's temperament, Fushimi Gong Xiaozheng, who usually loves to be suspicious and suspicious, and now that so many things have happened, he must be even more distrustful of others, and even if he empathizes, he sits on the throne of the emperor, and his younger brother is left aside from the military power but has no reaction, and he has to be suspicious, "But I really went, I'm afraid that the imperial brother will be jealous of me." ”
"It seems that there is no big difference, but in fact, the final outcome is completely different, as long as Your Highness shows an attitude of striving hard, the majority of young and strong officers will remember your goodness, and those who already have a gold star on their shoulders are afraid that they will not even buy His Majesty's account, let alone be grateful to you. As long as you do it, and then you spread the word a little bit, you can have a positive impact on things in the future, which is an investment. Ando's words are simple, yet convincing.
Sang Yi lost too many backbone officers because of the war 20 years ago, so that the command strength of the navy was seriously faulty, and the old ones could not keep up with the trend of the times, and the so-called young Zhuang faction did not have the slightest experience in actual combat, and this situation of lack of success not only affected the combat effectiveness of the army, but also affected the internal unity, the old looked down on the small, the small did not accept the old, and on the surface they were at peace but secretly they were incompatible.
Today, as the emperor of Sangyi, he can't get in touch with middle and lower-level officers at all, and there is only a group of old men around him, even if he wants to interact with middle- and low-level officers, he will be blocked, and Fushimi Palace Xiaozheng has a great advantage in this regard, he is not only a prince but also a navy admiral, and he has a legitimate reason to contact officers at all levels of the navy.
"I'll talk about it over there, brother, but you have to grasp a degree of problem next, don't go too far, after all, no one is stupid." Fushimi Gong Xiaozheng has ambition and ability, but his biggest point is his patience, he has survived these decades, and he doesn't care about these last few months, what Sang Yi needs at this moment is to capture Long Baixing, he will definitely not launch at this time to affect the morale ahead.
Leaving the official residence of Fushimi Miya, Teru Ando and Minuchihiko got into the car of the Admiralty and went directly to the Tsukihama Military Base.
Around the naval base, there are many entertainment venues that are open to military personnel, most of them are in the name of military clubs, but almost all of them operate businesses that are not allowed in military regulations, Lan Yu is such a club, this is ostensibly a hotel, but it sells not only alcohol, but also some prohibited drinks.
"Your Excellency, your room key." Seeing Zhongzuo's military uniform and confirming the information displayed in front of him, the front desk immediately changed into a charming expression, Zhongzuo is already a very high-level officer, not only has a high status but also a high salary, such a person has spare money in his hands, not to mention that the other party is still a handsome guy. The front desk is a university student who came out to work in order to pay the high tuition fee, and if possible, people like them do not refuse the opportunity to receive "assistance", and if they can still be seen by this high-ranking military officer named Makoto Ito, they may have a whole year's tuition.
"Although adults have given themselves an ordinary name, they can't do it without being noticed." After seeing the "Ito Seichosa" who walked in, Ando Hui's heart that had been hanging finally relaxed, and he was in the mood to ridicule.
"Hah, my name is ordinary?" Li Ang chuckled, this is the name of the head of the four scumbags (if you don't know it, please use Baidu), it is louder than Duan Yanqing.
