Chapter 73: The Kamikaze Fleet
"Lord Xiao?" Liu Haishan and Lin Zirui looked at Xiao Chen together, waiting for him to show him.
"Xiaosheng, do you know naval warfare?" Xiao Chen looked at Zhuge Xiaosheng.
"I know a little about one or two...... Zhuge Xiaosheng has always been humble, since he said so, then what he knows must be as simple as one or two.
"Okay, I temporarily appoint you as the chief soldier of the battle, Haishan, Zirui, both of you are under the command of Xiaosheng, his order is my order!" Xiao Chen has unconditional trust in Zhuge Xiaosheng.
"Uh......" Liu Haishan and Lin Zirui glanced at each other, and both frowned, greatly disapproving.
What kind of Zhuge Xiaosheng is young, and he usually doesn't say a word, what will he know how to lead troops to fight?
And it's a naval battle!
Let a layman command an insider, the consequences are unimaginable!
The safety of the concubine and the lives of more than a thousand people on board are not a joke.
"Why do you two dare to disobey?" Xiao Chen's eyes flashed, and murderous aura suddenly appeared.
"The subordinates don't dare!" The two of them were shocked, no longer hesitated, and said in unison: "It's all up to Lord Xiao's orders!" ”
"Bai Qing, good man, you bring twenty brothers to guard the concubine Niangniang, Chen Ming, you take fifty brocade guard brothers to guard the entrance of the cabin, and everyone else, including me, is at the disposal of Zhuge Xiaosheng!"
"Violators will be killed!"
Zhuge Xiaosheng didn't give in, didn't say a word of nonsense, and immediately began to issue orders.
First dispatch all the water crews on the ship, draw seawater, and pour the ship's side and deck thoroughly to prevent enemy rockets.
The artillerymen were all in position, and all the shells were put on the gun position, but no one was allowed to fire rashly until he gave the order.
The archers were all concentrated on the ship's tower, and there was not a single one left on the deck, and all the warriors were gathered under the ship's tower, waiting for orders.
Other idlers and others will stay in the cabin, and those who dare to come out without permission and make loud noises will be killed.
Ordered Lin Zirui to return to the Shenlong, and the two ships sailed in a staggered battle formation, agreeing to take the flag as the signal when it is near, and the light as the signal when it is far away, and if it is the smoke of gunpowder, it will be ordered by the horn.
Lin Zirui saw that Zhuge Xiaosheng's command was determined, the orders were clear, there was no confusion, and all of them were in line with the norms of naval warfare, so he put away his contempt for him and loudly promised to take the order.
Zhuge Xiaosheng wanted Xiao Chen to hide in the cabin, but Xiao Chen directly refused, the brothers fought bloodily outside, but the boss was a turtle with a shrunken head, like words?
Changed into a cowhide battle armor with the big guy, and asked Chen Ming for a sharp embroidered spring knife, Yu brothers stood side by side at the top of the ship, watching the enemy ship in front of them gradually approaching, and the horn sound on the ship became more and more passionate, and a sad heroic feeling suddenly arose in his heart!
To explain it in modern science, it's adrenaline rushing......
Just when the big guys were all murderous and ready to fight, suddenly a chirp sounded out of place.
Everyone heard the sound and looked at it together, but saw that it was Xiao Xiaoye who didn't know when he mixed in, sitting on the floor, holding a big cow bone in his hand, gnawing happily, and his mouth was full of oil......
"Why did you and the stinky boy run up! Didn't you just stay in the cabin? You don't listen to me, do you want to find a beating? Xiao Chen likes this simple little brother very much, so no matter when and where, he wants to reprimand him.
In other words, aren't younger brothers and sisters just for scolding?
"Hehe, I'm here to help my brother fight." Xiao Ye burped, dropped the cow bones, and pulled out his rusty wood-chopping axe from his waist.
Said it was a long time ago for you to throw it away!
What about fighting with your little body?
The big guy cast a contemptuous look at him, there are not a few taels of meat on his body, and there must not be a few hairs on his body, which means that the wind is small, if the wind is strong, it can directly blow you into the sea!
But this kid is thin, but the amount of food is unusually large, he can eat several catties of beef and more than a dozen big steamed buns in one meal!
In Wei Yuntian's words, this kid is a small rice bucket alive.
Most of them are the reincarnations of starving ghosts.
Xiao Chen felt sorry for this little brother's young age, and he usually didn't let him do anything.
So Xiao Ye's daily life is also very leisurely, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, Xiao Chen follows him behind his ass wherever he goes.
But this kid is a little good, he doesn't say a word, he doesn't make trouble, he doesn't do much, and he doesn't get annoying.
"It's martial law down there, you can't go down, stay behind me honestly, don't run around!" Xiao Chen said as he untied his armor and draped it on his body.
The armor was too big, and Xiao Ye put it on as if it was a big robe, which was very funny, and the big guy couldn't help but laugh again.
"I don't want to wear this ......," Xiao Ye felt awkward.
"Dressed!" Xiao Chen glared, and he was silent.
In the moonlight, I saw seven ships coming quickly, getting closer and closer, and sure enough, as Xiao Chen said, there were two large Anzhai Station warships and five small Guan ships.
Those with good eyesight can already see the soldiers on the side of the opposing ship, as well as the little cold light flashing from the knives and guns in their hands!
"Seamount, don't you have binoculars?" Xiao Chen suddenly remembered something.
"What mirror?" Liu Haishan said it was unheard of.
"It's okay, I'll just ask." As soon as Xiao Chen spoke, he knew that he was wrong, now he doesn't even have glass, how can he have any telescopes?
The two armies are next to each other, and the so-called lookout posts are only based on eyesight.
The viewing distance is quite limited.
However, the principle of the telescope is very simple, you only need two concave-convex mirrors, but first you have to make a glass of higher purity......
However, he saw that the Dongying fleet was spread out on the sea about 500 meters away, lined up, and this was the formation that was ready to attack.
"General Zhuge soldiers, they sent a signal." A sentry suddenly shouted a loud report.
"Read!" Zhuge Xiaosheng said.
"General Yokoji Sato, the leader of the Seventh Fleet of the Divine Feng Shui Division under the command of the Emperor of the Eastern Ying Kingdom, greets the Great Zhou Imperial Concubine and the Great Zhou Naval Division, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, I will accept your surrender, please turn the rudder left for half a week and anchor in place......"
"Give you time to make three incense sticks, please be sure to think about it carefully, and don't resist without any sense."
"At that time, I will launch a devastating attack on you, and I will not guarantee the safety of all of you, including the Imperial Princess!"
"Sincerely, General Yokoji Sato."
Everyone was furious when they heard this, is the other party so arrogant?
But the other party also has reasons for arrogance.
At present, all the combat soldiers on the two ships of the Great Zhou Navy Division are only more than 500 people together, and there are only 700 people including Xichang and Jinyiwei.
However, the opponent has at least 500 combat soldiers on a battleship, and the smaller ship can accommodate more than 200 soldiers, and the most conservative estimate is that there are 2,000 soldiers.
And that's just a comparison of forces.
In terms of the number of ships, especially the maneuverability of ships, the other side has an absolute advantage.
The only advantage of the Great Zhou Sailor was the large hull...... But in the absence of motivation, it is a big target.
