Chapter 86: That's it!

The Battle of the South Seas was the ...... of the Han Dynasty since Liu Xuan ascended the throne Even from the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was the first naval battle in the true sense of the word!

Needless to say, this time the Han sent ten warships of more than 10,000 tons, and four other spaceships were floating in the sky to observe the battle situation below - they did not intervene in this war at all, because there was no need for them to intervene at all

The Han Navy is ahead of the Wu sailors in terms of hardware and soldier quality, and Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai have tried their best to think of the method, but in fact, they don't even have a chance to implement it.

In just five volleys, more than half of the sailors of the Wu State were wiped out!

It cannot be said that the artillery fire of the Han Navy was accurate, but it can only be said that the sailors of the Wu State were too close when they were completely unaware of the difference in strength between the two sides.

With such a close distance, not to mention that the Han army has undergone all kinds of rigorous training to become a formal soldier, even if it is just a group of national soldiers who come this time, they will not let go of such a good opportunity.

No matter how you look at it, this group of Wu sailors has no possibility of winning, and Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai can do it...... It's just a moment of late death for the soldiers under him, or rather...... Surrender directly.

From the contact between the two sides to the firing and the surrender of the Wu army, the whole process took less than half an hour, and such a short time for the so-called naval warfare experts in the future to see it will definitely say 'impossible!'. Because of the decisive battle on the sea. Even if it is just a simple adjustment, or to change the fleet formation, it is measured in hours, let alone a naval battle in half an hour, and it may not even have time to fire a single shell on both sides.

But the current situation is very different, the equipment and strength of the two sides are too different, in other words, the future battleship is used to fight the wooden ship that has just entered the sail era, is there any suspense in this result?

The so-called cannon fighting mosquitoes, that's roughly it!

Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai boarded the flagship of the Han Navy under the supervision of the soldiers, and they immediately saw Yu Ban waiting there.

For Yu Ban, the two of them are not familiar with it. But before they came, someone told them that it was Yu Ban Yu Wenze, the general of Hengjiang of the Han Dynasty, who commanded all the navies of the Han Dynasty.

General Yokoe, the rank is not high. It's just a miscellaneous general, but you can't resist Liu Xuan directly classifying the entire Han navy under the forbidden tent, so don't look at the low level, but he is a real power faction, and he has soldiers in his hands.

And what kind of strength is the strength of the soldiers and horses, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin have already experienced it personally, from this point of view, this Yu Ban must be the cronies of the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai glanced at each other, and finally stood in front of Yu Ban and didn't speak, and Yu Ban on the other side didn't care. Just looked up and down, and then instructed the people beside him: "The two generals are not ordinary people, take them down to entertain them, and then send a ship to send them back to Luoyang, please make a decision." ”

The soldier was also interesting, and instead of taking the order directly, he asked directly: "General, what to do with those Wu soldiers?"

Yu Ban glanced at Jiang Qin and found that although this person deliberately looked wooden, he still glanced at himself unconsciously. With just this glance, Yu Ban became more and more sure of his guess in his heart.

"There is no place for our fleet to place its soldiers at present, so we have thrown it into the sea and left it to fend for itself......"

As he spoke, he glanced at Jiang Qin again, and found that Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's faces had changed drastically. Yu Ban knew that his guess was indeed right, and he snorted in his heart: "Play this game with me." You're still too tender!"

Throwing the pawns into the sea to fend for themselves is at best to say. In fact, in this endless sea, there is not even a direction to throw it in, and even if there is a direction, who can swim to the shore? Not to mention that there is no food and no fresh water, and if you soak in the sea all day, you will die in a few days. ...,

In other words, this is equivalent to directly killing these Wu State water troops.

And Yu Banhui did this on purpose, because he saw what Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were thinking, so he deliberately said this in front of the two of them.

Although Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai surrendered, they actually didn't have any good intentions, and these two people couldn't fight when they saw it, even if they tried their best to delay it, it would not have any effect at all - if the two of them worked hard, they could force the Han Navy to retreat, but the current situation was that even if they put these warships and sailors across the sea, they could rush over and be unharmed.

There is no hope of fighting hard, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai thought about it, and it was better to surrender.

It's not that the two of them are greedy for life and afraid of death, but in this way, they can add countless burdens to the navy of the Han Dynasty, not to mention anything else, as soon as the nearly 10,000 soldiers get on the battleship of the Han Dynasty, they need to arrange a place to detain them, right?

At sea, manpower, fresh water, and food are extremely precious resources, and Jiang Qin has also led a fleet to drift at sea for many years, which of course is understandable.

It can be said that once these people surrender, even if they don't do anything, it is enough for Yu Ban to have a headache, with the burden of nearly 10,000 people, can Yu Ban calmly lead the fleet to attack Wu?

It is absolutely impossible, so Jiang Qin took the initiative to surrender with this idea, but what he didn't expect was that the Han Dynasty general actually saw through his thoughts at a glance, and he was so ruthless that he actually wanted to kill the 10,000 soldiers, so that the Han Navy really didn't have any pressure at all, and it could still advance towards Australia and directly threaten the coast of Wu.

The mind was seen through, the initiative completely changed hands, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai shook their heads helplessly, and had to open their mouths to intercede for the 10,000 soldiers.

"I pray that the general can save the lives of those soldiers...... If we agree, the two of us will be at the disposal of the general, and there will be no complaints......"

Yu Ban snorted after hearing this: "You two are the generals of the defeated army, and you should be dealt with by me, what's the point of saying this?"

After taunting the two of them and letting them understand their current situation, they were brought down.

Yu Ban didn't expect anything, he just wanted to let the two of them understand through the incident just now: Don't play any tricks, my little trick has already been seen through by me.

As for those Wu sailors, Yu Ban really didn't plan to kill them, because it just so happened that many islands in the South China Sea were waiting to be developed, and sending these people over would be a good labor force -- these people would not be able to live in peace when they were brought back to China, and it would be even more impossible to send them back to Wu State, so it was the best solution to use free labor to die.

Yu Bancai would not sympathize with these people, anyway, this group of people were either after the domestic slaves and soldiers who went into exile with Sun Quan back then, or they were the local natives recruited by the Wu State in Australia, and then recruited as soldiers after assimilation. No matter which one it is, it has nothing to do with the big man, to put it bluntly, it is a pure enemy, and it is not soft to kill, let alone being a laborer?

After reporting the matter to the above, the imperial court will naturally arrange people and ships to respond, and during this time, Yu Ban can take a little rest and moor his fleet in a suitable position, and at the same time he also needs to wait for the army sent by the imperial court to support - without the army, he can't stupidly rush directly to Wu State, even if his sailors are as brave and good at fighting on the ground, but the work of robbing people will inevitably be hated by others, so it is better to honestly take the ship to swing on the sea!

When the news came back to Luoyang, the imperial court was naturally very happy.

In fact, the annual financial resources consumed by the imperial court on the navy are not a small amount, but many people do not think that the consumption of a large amount of materials on the navy is a clear choice - except for a small number of people, most of the courtiers still think that the navy is only an auxiliary role, and the court should focus on land, even if it is to unify the world, the development of the army is the best choice. ...,

Some courtiers even proposed that the number of the army, that is, the forbidden army, should be at least doubled to 1.6 million, so as to meet the purpose of the Han Dynasty in Europe and Asia - this young man can be regarded as the main battle faction, and when this request was made, countless people around him glared at him but did not care.

Liu Xuan was happy at the time, and the young man in front of him should have just entered the court, or Cao Bao next to him reminded him: "This young man's name is Ran Min, he has just been promoted to Yilang, and today is the first time to go to the court......

"Oh!"

What Liu Xuan cared about was not that this young man was going to the court for the first time, what he cared about was the name of this young man: he didn't expect that this person would actually sneak into the court......%

Just a few days later, Yu Ban sent the news back, the victory of the Han Navy, so that many people in the court were happy, especially the performance of the Han warship in this battle in detail in the chapter, that is simply an overwhelming advantage, Huang Chengyan, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and Huang Yueying, who will be the temple secretary, are about to smile like a flower, and everyone next to them naturally praises them, and there is also a group of wall grass to praise the 'foresight' of the Son of Heaven.

In any case, the navy was finally opened, and 10,000 prisoners were captured, which solved the problem of the development of the Nanyang islands to a certain extent -- in this case, the Han only needed to send some technical and command personnel, and the labor force was ready-made.

Liu Xuan also thought that those soldiers of Wu State could be disposed of like this-of course, if they were beaten to a certain extent, he would not mind bringing all the people of Wu State under the rule of the Great Han.

In this case, it is necessary to set some hopes for those who have been demoted: for example, after working for a few years, they can be let go if they perform well, so that this group of people will not be passive and slack off.

And when these people return home and live a better life than before, they will not rebel again.

"Well, that's how it should be!"
