Chapter 848: Breaking the Halberd and Sinking in the Sand
The Cheung Chau Maru sank into the sea, and the ship's officer Shui Po Shichang was killed.
The Nagayoshi Maru sank, and the ship's officer, Shimatsuo, fell into the water and died.
The entire fleet of the Japanese was almost completely annihilated, and the gunboats of Nalang Son began to form themselves into small formations and cruising in the vicinity, but any lone Japanese ships were immediately attacked.
There was more and more bad news from the nearby waters, and the remaining Japanese ships did not dare to leave the port, because without the protection of frigates, once they went to sea, they would immediately be followed by the Lang Son warships that were crouching, and finally attacked like wolves.
Chongming Island has no danger to defend, Changxing Island is also unsafe, this is not Quanzhou, nor Ningbo, in a sense, when they chose Chongming, it has already meant the fall of today.
The reason is very simple, because the vast majority of the Japanese ships are imitations of Lang Son, and as a latecomer, the Japanese are naturally better at learning advanced experience, and they are afraid that they will not be able to reach the height of Lang Son ships in their lives, so the structure of the Japanese ships is no different from the ships of Lang Son.
After the destruction of the fleet, the Lang Son army immediately began to land and launched an attack, this Changxing Island is not large, and there is no backup, the Lang Son army immediately occupied the port, and immediately began to sweep.
There were large reserves of grain and gunpowder here, which made it cheaper for the Lang Son army.
Hao Fenglou has landed on Changxing Island and transformed it into a base camp, countless ships have also begun to dock and replenish, and the fleet has begun to divide into two shifts and take turns to go to sea. Attack a ship that dares to appear on the surface of the sea.
In fact, the losses of the Japanese were not large, 100,000 Japanese troops. The casualties of this naval battle were no more than 5,000; And on the side of the Lang Son army, a gunboat was overconfident. Blindly got rid of the array, and finally was hit by the artillery erected at the Chongming port, the ship sank, many crew members were rescued, and two ships collided, also killing more than 70 people.
In any case, this time the naval battle was a complete victory. And for the Japanese people, it is also a particularly fatal blow.
They're finished.
Junichi Shimazu on Chongming Island has a deep understanding of this.
Because there are many soldiers and horses on Chongming Island. The place is only the size of a palm, there are not enough reserves, almost all the materials are transferred from the mainland or Changxing Island, and now the sailors are gone, which means that from now on, their transportation lines with the outside world have been cut off, even if there are still some ships on Chongming Island, but once they leave the port. Don't talk about transporting food, it can be regarded as God's blessing to be able to retreat with all your body.
The supply on Chongming Island will last for ten days at most, and what about after ten days?
The strength of the Great Ming Sailor is almost negligible, even if there is. Most of them are in Ningbo and Quanzhou, waiting for them to come to help, but they are afraid that the daylilies will be cold. There are some ships in Songjiang, but they want to compete with the Lang Son fleet. It's almost the same as suicide.
Being accused of sea power means that supplies are cut off. The supply is cut off, and even though there are millions of Japanese soldiers on the island, they are human beings, and if they are human beings, they will eat, drink, and Lazar, so can they rely on this palm-sized place to be self-sufficient? Even if there is enough arable land here to be cultivated, it will be in the coming year.
Finished.
In the nearby seas, the Lang Son gunboats are cruising around, elusive, and it is impossible to transport a large-scale fleet, so they can only use some clippers to risk breaking out, and if they are lucky enough to escape, at most they will send a letter, so can they rely on them to transport a few boats of grain?
The Lang Son fleet had apparently seen this, and they had adopted all kinds of raids and harassments, but they did not send military horses to land and attack.
Junichi Shimazu was in the big tent, looking at the daimyo with a dead face below, these daimyo all responded to the call and hurriedly led troops to participate in the war, for them, this is not only a certain honor, but also an opportunity to make profits, and now, a qiē has become a mirror.
Many were outraged.
Everyone began to curse the Langshan army, some people asked to break through, but it was just a breakthrough, it was ridiculous, this is not land, there is no bridge, and a ship is needed to break through, and now the ships of the Japanese army are not enough to transport thousands of people to sea, even if they can be transported, once they are intercepted by those hungry wolf-like Langshan water divisions, thousands of people will all be buried in the belly of the fish.
There are also people who want the Langshan army to land immediately so that they can have a big battle with these insidious and cunning Langshan people, which is obviously also wishful thinking, because according to the IQ test of later generations, although the IQ of the Japanese people is not bad, but obviously the average IQ of the Han people is not too low, and people would rather tease you there than come to fight hard.
Finally, someone still found the key to the problem, someone pulled out the sword on his waist fiercely, and said angrily: "The Ming people misunderstood me, if it weren't for them, how would we be trapped on an isolated island?" The 100,000 elites of the imperial kingdom must be destroyed in one fell swoop. ”
In fact, many people want to say that the key here is His Royal Highness Yongjian's submission to the Ming people, if it weren't for this, how could such a thing happen?
It's just that everyone doesn't dare to blame His Royal Highness the Prince, and in the end they can only put all the blame on Mingren.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
In the end, Shimazu Junichi's obscure face finally showed a little hideous, and said: "The matter has come to this, we are all criminal ministers of the imperial state, since the return of the great government, the imperial will to reform, there has been no such failure, after today, the imperial reform has been ruined!" ”
When these words were spoken, the people in the big tent were filled with a certain sadness.
This is right, since the return of the great government, everyone has worked hard for so many years like a stimulant, and finally there is a little improvement, seeing that the industry is promising, countless people's long-cherished wishes will come true, and it happens that the Central Plains civil strife, it is the best time for the Japanese to take the chestnut in the fire, I thought that this time to assist the Ming Dynasty to suppress the thief, can prosper the imperial industry, who knows that this battle is a failure, like a basin of ice water completely woke everyone up.
The most ridiculous thing is that if you fight hard, you will be defeated if you lose, but the problem is that everyone has not even touched the enemy's edge now, so all of a sudden the Japanese army has fallen into the most dangerous situation, which is ...... What a fucking wrong.
