Chapter 376: Capture the port of Kaku
Yue Pengju asked the six giant ships with huge guns, as well as his own main ship, to the front of the fleet, and the seven battleships were lined up, and after giving the order, each ship began to aim.
On the shore, Daerson, who had escaped by chance, looked at the enemy warship that was not close, his eyes were full of unwillingness and anger, if he could, he would definitely jump to his feet and curse, and even provoke the opposing warship to enter the range of their artillery.
It's a pity that after they tried firing a few shots, they let the opposite battleship no longer approach, and he was so angry that he was helpless.
Now that he and the entire fleet are locked in this port, it is impossible to get out, and there is no chance to sneak attack.
Just when he was angry, suddenly, seven roars came from the battleship in the distance, and the amazing sound came from afar, Daerson's heart jumped inexplicably, and a wave of horror surged in his eyes.
He had a bad premonition, and he was afraid that it would be miserable now.
I saw that seven huge cannonballs on the opposite side were blasting towards the shore battery on their side, and the astonishing speed and power made Daerson's heart almost raise his throat.
Bang...... As the first shell landed on the shore, the violent explosion made Daerson frown, and he was relieved to see the shell explode more than ten meters in front of the battery.
But as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard six loud noises again, and three of the remaining six shells hit the battery, directly blowing up the battery, and although the remaining three did not hit, they also exploded at a distance of about ten meters from the battery.
This situation made a wave of despair swell in Daerson's heart, not because the range of the gun on the opposite side was not enough, but because for some reason, the shell did not hit the target. But there is only an error of a few tens of meters, and the distance is ten miles.
Such an accurate head is enough to shock Delson. Even if the fort is not destroyed now, it only needs a few shellings, and he is afraid that he will be wiped out because of his pride and reliance on the fort.
As soon as he had this idea, seven more shells were fired, and this time, three more hit the batteries, and the remaining four, even if they did not hit the batteries, exploded at the edges of the other batteries, and the distance between them was shortened to seven or eight meters.
Finished...... Darson knew that he didn't have any more opportunities on his side. He trembled with fright, and hurriedly gave the order to evacuate.
The batteries were gone, and he could imagine that those battleships would drive the captain straight into and occupy the entire port in no time, and with the little force he had, he would not be able to stop those battleships from landing.
If you want to snipe those people on the shore, it is simply impossible, and a few artillery rounds can be used to defeat them.
With more than 10,000 of his henchmen, Daerson quickly evacuated the port of Kajiu, leaving a part of the Hebrews to lead the Japanese army to resist and buy them time to escape.
Not far from Delson's departure from the harbor, through the telescope, he saw that the last of the batteries had been completely flattened. The battleship on the opposite side had already pulled in. Although his heart was full of unwillingness, he could only escape.
After Yue Pengju destroyed the ten forts on his side, the battleships began to approach the port, and when they got close to five or six miles, they launched an artillery bombardment on the battleships in the harbor at this optimal firing distance.
Regardless of whether there were any or no people on board, they had to make sure that the ships in the harbor did not have any combat effectiveness. Seeing this, many warships sailed out of the harbor and tried to flee from the other side.
Seeing this scene, Yue Pengju ordered his subordinates to slow down the shelling pattern by a few points, and even made the accuracy of the shelling crooked. If these warships want to escape, it is a good opportunity to destroy them in the harbor, which will make the harbor clogged.
It's better to let them automatically give up the port, so that there is no need to find a place to dock the battleship. As for the warships that wanted to escape, how could they escape from their own hands.
When he saw those warships sailing away from the port, Yue Pengju sent dozens of warships to chase after them, trying to lure them to the sea as much as possible before destroying them.
The battle lasted for almost three hours, and although the remaining warships escaped from the port, they still did not escape the pursuit of the Huaxia warships, and they were sunk in the open sea.
The warships on the Huaxia side also took this opportunity to dock on the shore, but just when the Huaxia warships saw that they were docked on the shore, suddenly, dense Japanese troops and Hebrews poured out from the front.
They rushed towards the docked warship, apparently preparing to snatch the warship, for such a situation, Yue Pengju had already prepared, Mark Mi placed it on the side of the ship, and fired at the charging Japanese army and Hebrew army.
The enemy who charged in front was slaughtered as if they had been cut wheat, and they could not reach a place forty or fifty meters in front of the battleship. No matter how many enemies rush in, they will be directly shot by the powerful fire of the Mark Secret.
At the same time, KPA fighters also landed from the battleship and launched a charge against the enemy on the opposite side, and the moment the trumpet sounded, only the shouts of the KPA and the terrified and desperate screams of the Japanese army and the Hebrew army were left.
The battle on the shore also lasted for almost an hour, and the enemy on the side of the port of Kaku was completely cleared, and in addition to the nearly 30,000 enemies who were destroyed, the remaining Japanese and Hebrew people, about 10,000 people, fled.
Since then, the port of Kajiu in the Wa Kingdom has been occupied by the Huaxia Army, and the camp here has also become the camp of the Huaxia Army.
Yue Pengju stationed the army, and the expeditionary force of 200,000 people, and another 100,000 people, although they were not combatants, they were also trained as combatants.
Yue Pengju was not in a hurry to conquer the next Wa Kingdom cities, he followed Yun Ze's advice and prepared to move forward little by little, and at the same time, he needed to take down a few coal mines. to replenish the power of the battleship.
Yun Ze drew a topographical map of the Wa Kingdom from the chip in his head, and where there were coal mines, iron ore and other minerals, as long as these ore veins were occupied, the People's Army would be able to make great progress in the Wa Kingdom.
Yue Pengju remembered Yun Ze's words, don't hurt the people of the Wa Kingdom, after all, they are an expedition, and harming the people of the Wa Kingdom will only make the entire Wa Kingdom against them. If you want to completely occupy the Wa Kingdom, the best way is to Huairou.
Because of the greed and corruption of the rulers, the people of the Japanese kingdom are already living in dire straits, as long as they can be fed and live a good life, they will never go against those rulers.
Yun Ze gave Yue Peng a lot of grain seeds, and a variety of grains in the Wa Kingdom could not only solve his own food and clothing problems, but also buy the hearts of the people of the Wa Kingdom.
With the Minfu and the army bringing the entire Hejiu port nearly 100 kilometers under their rule, Yue Pengju mobilized the soldiers of the People's Army and the Minfu, as well as the people of the Wa Kingdom under their rule, to start grain planting.
At the beginning, the people of the Japanese State were full of fear and vigilance against the People's Army, fearing that the People's Army would burn, kill, and loot them.
After all, the attitude of the former Japanese army and the Hebrew-speaking army towards them was to oppress, either burning, killing and looting, or frantically exploiting them. It has made the lives of the people miserable.
When they learned that the KPA was coming, they thought that the KPA would be even more ferocious than the Japanese Army and the Hebrew Army.
However, the KPA was strictly disciplined and did not allow any oppression of civilians to occur, and the KPA took the lead, which suddenly gave these Japanese people a different view of the KPA.
They are ordinary people, but they don't have any feelings for their family and country, as long as they can live a good life, they don't care who their ruler is. They will not be stupid enough to throw their heads and spill their blood for the feelings of their family and country and the morality of the nation.
The requirements of the common people are very simple, they are well fed and clothed, otherwise they will be frightened and precarious. And they were satisfied. In particular, those who have been oppressed are more eager to be treated fairly.
Historically, China has been successfully invaded by foreign nations several times, but the dynasty finally succeeded in occupying China, and only the last feudal dynasty ruled China. Why did they become the masters of China in the end with a nation of only a hundred thousand people?
It's not that they're good, it's that they're doing a good job and they know the importance of the people. As for the other alien races that succeeded in invading China, why they were defeated in the end, it was not because the oppression was too great, which caused the people to rise up and resist.
In the history of Yunze's previous life, the famous Jiajing Three Massacres, Yangzhou for ten days, killed many Chinese compatriots, but in the end, this nation that occupied China finally succeeded in ruling China for more than 200 years.
If it weren't for the lack of their descendants, they might have ruled longer, and in the end, this nation was integrated into the Chinese family.
Yue Pengju is actually a smart person, and he also knows the thoughts of people at the bottom, including himself who once climbed up from the bottom. Of course, he admired Yun Ze's foresight even more.
Just as Yue Pengju was in full swing for spring ploughing in Kakuko, Delson, who had fled to Edo, met Williams, the governor of the Hebrew Wa Kingdom stationed in Edo.
Governor Williams was shocked to learn that the army of unknown origin had occupied the port of Kaku, and that the other side had powerful artillery and weapons, but thinking of the power he had managed to establish in the Wa Kingdom, he decided to send a large army to destroy the People's Army occupying the port of Kaku.
Emperor Akihito also sent 100,000 troops to cooperate at the first time, and in other ports of the Wa Kingdom, he also sent 30,000 Hebrew troops. A total of 130,000 troops marched towards Kajiu Port.
Yue Pengju knew that the Japanese people would definitely not give up, and he also made a countermeasure, deploying 100,000 troops around Hejiugang. All roads leading to Kakuko have been blocked.
As soon as the Japanese make any moves, he will be able to respond effectively. At the same time, he also sent nearly a hundred warships back to China. In addition to reporting to Yun Ze the results of the battle on his side, Yue Pengju was also ready to let Huaxia send people over to open up the wasteland.
