The Jinpeng flag hunted and flew at the top of the battleship, but the cold wind could not extinguish the frenzied flames in the hearts of the Datang Navy officers and soldiers, and the fleet that spread out in a semi-arc swooped towards the Japanese navy that was desperately spreading the formation with lightning speed, and at this time, more than ten smaller Datang warships had already left the team and floated away along the outer flanks.

The development of naval battles is often carried out from the fire of catapults, and the Tang warship, which has the upper hand advantage without suspense, fired the first shot, countless huge stone balls rose into the sky with the slight shaking of the warship, and the sea immediately splashed a column of water several people high, and the ships on both sides that entered the range almost immediately exerted all their strength to exert the striking power of long-range weapons, and the huge stones could produce powerful destructive power once they hit the hull, if the ship was unfortunately hit continuously, perhaps it might face the danger of sinking due to excessive damage to the hull.

The battle has begun to enter a white-hot state, the Tang Navy and the Japanese army with a broken heart have almost no room for reconciliation, either you die or I die, this principle is absolutely applicable in the navies of both sides, the overwhelming rockets roared up after entering the range, and as the distance approached, a series of black balls also surged from the ships of the Tang Navy, which was particularly dazzling in the blue sky and sea water.

The dull firing sound only came to people's ears when the black ball rose into the sky, and some of the larger but silent flying balls obviously did not belong to this batch of weapons launch, the endless weapons showed that the imperial navy was far from being comparable to the Tang River Navy in the past, and the Datang Navy, which paid more attention to the active offensive surname and long-range strike capabilities, was no longer limited to traditional naval combat weapons, and the thunderbolt equipment was in place and the improved thunderbolt began to be equipped, marking the clumsy strike weapons such as catapults are about to withdraw from the historical stage, which will bring a breakthrough in the historical surname to the maritime competition。

Miyazawa Ichiro looked at the unimaginable scene in front of him in despair, although he also expected that this battle of being prepared against unprepared might end in the defeat of his own side, but he firmly believed that with the good qualities of his naval fleet, he could effectively attack and weaken the Datang Navy fleet, and win a glimmer of hope for the army transport ship, as long as it could destroy the combat effectiveness of the Datang Navy fleet to the greatest extent and ensure that the army transport ship could break through the opponent's defense line and break into the inland sea to land, even if his own naval fleet was completely destroyed, it would be worth it, so he started a crazy battle with the Datang Navy fleet with the determination of jade crushing, but the result made him never expect.

Rocket shooting once gave Miyazawa Ichiro a glimmer of hope, but this hope went too quickly, and when the black ball that rose into the sky landed on his fleet and immediately caused a fire, Miyazawa Ichiro's heart began to slowly fall downward. This kind of weapon he has not heard of, this kind of burning intensity is far more than the liquid of tung oil is said to be burned with any object until it burns out, the navy has also done experiments with tung oil, but the effect can not be compared with the kind of weapon mastered by Datang, and tung oil has also been strictly embargoed by Datang, and the smuggled tung oil is not even enough to make the paint of the ship, let alone used to experiment with new weapons, knowing that at that time the navy realized that the poverty of its own production made the navy unable to face an unequal situation。

But what made Miyazawa Ichiro completely desperate was the kind of ball that made a loud noise launched by the Tang Army, this strange ball could explode in mid-air, and the metal fragments and oil that flew out took the lives of dozens of brave sailors in an instant, and the splashed oil burned almost all at once, and a warship had to suffer two or three of these almost heavenly punishment-like projectiles and completely lost its combat effectiveness, and the Tang Army that he hoped to fight through the overboard battle did not give himself any chance at all. Occasionally, one or two warships were lucky enough to escape the enemy's interception and approach, and the countless metal pipes that the other party poked out from the side of the ship suddenly made a loud noise and smoke, and the countless soldiers lined up on the side of the ship to prepare for the battle all fell into the sea without even having time to react, and the rattan card of the talisman could not block what the other party launched at all, until the last moment, Miyazawa Ichiro did not understand what secret weapon the Tang people had mastered and let themselves die without seeing the reason.

The destruction of the escort fleet also announced the arrival of the end of the transport fleet, and several slightly more agile transport ships turned their bows at the beginning of the warring party in an attempt to take advantage of the tailwind to escape, but they did not expect that more than a dozen light Datang warships had already made a detour and waited, and after a series of blows, the Japanese army soldiers on these transport ships became the first victims to die in the belly of the fish.

Then the encirclement and annihilation became purely a massacre without suspense, and even became an excellent platform for the navy to experiment with new weapons, more than 60 warships around more than 100 transport ships continued to attack, thick smoke shrouded the entire sea, without the slightest chance of the Japanese army to see the landing site is not far away, but can only watch themselves slide into the sea with the sunken ships, the cold and biting sea water is the only witness when they disappear.

Ito Faithful stood on the bow deck like a stone sculpture, Miyazawa Ichiro died, the people around him jumped into the sea, escaped and escaped, only he stood motionless in the bow of the ship, in the black fog and smoke, the Jinpeng flag of the Tang Navy loomed, a rain of arrows fell but none fell on him, his eyes were already numb, the waist knife was tightly grasped in his hand, everything disappeared, the raging flames approached the bow step by step, the ship also slowly sank in the flames, the sails on the mast turned to ashes, and the hanging strips of cloth fell in front of Ito Faithful, picked it up casually, but it was the blood-colored infinite Japanese flag, which seems to symbolize the final ending of this scene.

Zuo Shichang stared coldly at the scene in front of him, when the bow of the ship gradually immersed in the seawater, the Japanese army officer was still in a posture of drawing his sword and angrily, but this expression was particularly ridiculous in such an environment, the mantis arm was a car, and he did not measure himself, this is Zuo Shichang's sentence, of course, he did not know that another Japanese landing army had successfully landed in Chengshanjiao, which bordered Yanshan Mansion and Laizhou Capital.

On January 27, 702 in the Gregorian calendar of the mainland, 50,000 Japanese troops suddenly carried out a landing operation in the Chengshanjiao area of Laizhou Prefecture, although the marines stationed in Yanshan and Laizhou responded in time, but the Japanese Army rapidly expanded the scale of the landing within three days, expanding the number of landed troops to 100,000, and launched a series of offensives to repel the resistance of two marine divisions, and quickly advanced to the territory of Yanshan Province and Laizhou Province in two ways.

The landing of the Japanese army in the hinterland of the mainland caused the entire coastal area of Yanyun to fall into a panic, although the Marine Division carried out arduous resistance, but both in terms of numbers and combat effectiveness they were in an absolute inferiority, they could hardly resist the fierce attack of the Japanese army except for retreating to win time for the people in the rear.

Cui Wenxiu received an urgent letter from the eastern part of Yanshan and the northeast of Laizhou before he had time to rest and recuperate, and the landing of the Japanese army was expected, but the long coastline made Cui Wenxiu and the navy unable to determine where the Japanese would carry out the landing, and the news of the victory in the first battle off the coast of the Liugong Islands had just come and it was too late to enjoy, and the landing of the Japanese army in Chengshanjiao was confirmed, and the subsequent news made Cui Wenxiu sigh.

Although the troops in his hands are quite sufficient, he has only experienced many bloody battles, and it also takes time to rest and recuperate, not to mention that the war on the central and western fronts has also entered a white-hot state, and the reason why he reluctantly gave up the opportunity to completely annihilate the Dotun army is to win two more days of rest and recuperation so that the army can recover as soon as possible, so that it can be put into the middle line battle that is related to the outcome of the entire war in the shortest possible time. The end of the war on the Eastern Front has declared that the Liberians have no chance of complete victory, and how to sink the Kamen and Sithlos into this quagmire is a problem that needs to be considered now, and only the complete consumption of the living forces of the Sithros and Kamen can lay the foundation for the final general offensive of the Empire, and all these conditions are slowly maturing.

But now the large-scale landing of the Japanese has somewhat disrupted Cui Wenxiu's intentions, in fact, the landing of these Japanese has been meaningless, the war on the eastern front has been resolved, their rendezvous goal has been lost, this is a group of fools who come to the door to die, if you don't consider the war situation on the central and western fronts, you only need a little adjustment to completely solve these undead guys, but now the situation on the central line is becoming more and more severe, and they have to devote themselves to the middle line war as soon as possible, and if these Japanese people wreak havoc on the eastern coastal areas, it is a great provocation to the prestige of the empire, which is absolutely intolerable to the empire。

"Lige, what do you think is going to do with these guys?" Cui Wenxiu had a headache, these gangs of widows have undoubtedly become a bunch of chicken ribs, it is a pity to abandon them, they are tasteless to eat, and they will also involve part of their energy, which is really annoying.

"Wenxiu, you might as well do this, let the Rangers stop the pursuit of the Dodons, and quickly return to cooperate with the Marine Division to solve this gang of Japanese people, the central and western fronts can send another request to the Luope people to borrow troops, now that the war on the eastern front is over, I believe that Watt can see the general trend clearly, and it is time to place a bet." After a little thought, Muliga replied: "Our focus still needs to be on the central and western fronts, and this battle may not be as easy to solve as the eastern front." ”
