Chapter 553: Fool

readx;

Attacking Dongying is a plan that Yu Dayou has been planning for at least five years. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Daming except for Jiangxia, no one understands better than Yu Dayou that the significance of winning Dongying to the Daming Sailor is very important to the Ming Dynasty.

Dongying and the Ming Dynasty face each other across the sea, and at the same time are adjacent to the Ryukyus. As long as Dongying is taken, the entire East China Sea and the South China Sea are basically firmly controlled by the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, with Dongying as a springboard, the Ming Dynasty can completely look north at the North Pacific Ocean and look at the territory of the world.

Since ancient times, the Chinese people have believed that the territory of China is located in the middle of heaven and earth, so they call themselves the Central Plains. But in the Ming Dynasty, after Zheng He's voyage to the West, anyone who has a little insight understands that this world is far bigger than they imagined. On the other side of the ocean, there must be other kingdoms as well. The land of China, compared to the whole world, is only a corner.

If Dongying can be taken, then the sailors of the Ming Dynasty will develop rapidly. As the person who promoted this development, Yu Dayou knew that he would definitely go down in history because of this.

More than a month has passed, and the Fujian sailors, who have great sailing experience, have steadily entered the Dongying sea area. In the distance, Yu Dayou could already see Goshu Island outside the port of Nagasaki.

Goshu Island is a group of scattered islands, with more than a dozen large and small islands, some of which are covered by the sea at high tide. After the tide recedes, it will show up again.

The island of Goshu is just outside the port of Nagasaki, and it is a bit of a barrier to the port of Nagasaki. The Kawasaki family's ship is basically docked near Goshu Island.

When it comes to the strength of the Kawasaki family, it is naturally incomparable with the Fujian sailors. Although they are also considered to be princes in Dongying, but in detail, there are only more than 800 ships of the Kawasaki family, and the number of people is only more than 50,000. And the quality of the warship is completely incomparable with that of the Fujian Naval Division.

This is also the reason why Yu Dayou never thought that he would lose, because with the lineup of sailors he brought out from Fujian, it was basically enough to win the entire Dongying. But nowadays, it's just a small Fukuoka, and it's not easy to get started.

In every sea area, there must be a patrol fleet, otherwise how could it be regarded as controlling this sea area? The 100,000 sailors of the Fujian Navy Division came in a mighty manner, and the Kawasaki family naturally knew about it for a long time.

In the sea area in front of Wuzhou Island, the warships of the Kawasaki family have been arranged in a battle formation, located on the top of the five-story ship in the middle, and a flag speaker waving a flag warn Yu Dayou that they have entered the private sea area, and this behavior is a provocation. If they don't retreat immediately, they will start a war against Yu Dayou.

didn't report with a flag hand, Yu Dayou, who was proficient in naval warfare, understood the meaning of the other party's flag hand at a glance. Yu Dayou smiled coldly, and immediately ordered: "Beat the war drums, order the front of the plough boat, the middle of the warship, the back of the gunboat, and the two wings of the building ship to suppress!"

"Yes!" The herald who received Yu Dayou's order immediately passed on Yu Dayou's order. According to Yu Dayou's order, he is ready to be upright and directly defeat the Kawasaki family's water army with the hard power of the water division.

In the history of the development of naval warfare in the Ming Dynasty, artillery did not appear, or before it was popularized. The general method of warfare is to shoot the enemy with arrows and consume them from a distance first. Then the plowboat approaches, sinks the opponent's ship with the plowboat, and then approaches with the warship, so that the ship and the enemy's ship meet the sideboard, and jumps on the opponent's ship to engage the opponent in hand-to-hand combat.

However, with the popularization of artillery, this method of warfare has long been abandoned. With the increase in the style of warships, the means of attack, and the tactics of naval warfare have a lot of flexibility, as well as more scientific changes.

Now Yu Dayou has arranged the gunboat at the back, which makes it clear that he doesn't want to use the gunboat to bully the Kawasaki family's sailors. He is prepared to be dignified and defeat the Kawasaki family in a hard-fought manner.

Seeing Yu Dayou lined up like this, Kawasaki Haifu, who was standing on the ship of the command building, was dumbfounded. This...... What kind of formation is this? How can anyone arrange the gunboats to the rear? Generally speaking, don't they always arrange the gunboats in the front, bombard the opponent directly, and then easily win the victory?

You...... You...... If you arrange the gunboats like this, how can I sneak up on you?

"Yaga!" Kawasaki scolded angrily. He glanced out into the subfjords, where Callev's Armada was lurking. The subfjords are an island that looks like a crescent, and it is not accurate to say that it is crescent-shaped, but it is accurate to say that the crack in the middle of it is crescent-shaped.

This island is very interesting, it is not small, but it is a barren land. It was irregularly shaped, but there was a crack in the middle, which could hold eight three-masted ships in unison, but the tail was sealed, a dead end.

Kalev is now standing on the edge of an island in the subfjords with his generals, watching the battle between the Daming Navy and the Kawasaki family through binoculars.

Seeing the formation put forward by the Daming Sailor, Kalev was also very surprised. What is this? Knowing that there was an ambush, so you put all the gunboats behind you as a precaution?

Colonel Will, who was standing beside Callev, asked aloud: "General, they have entered the encirclement, should we go out now?"

Kalev put away the telescope, pondered for a moment, and then shook his head, "No, I can't go out for the time being." When we go out now, there will definitely be an artillery battle with them. Even if we win, we will lose a lot. We are fighting on a long voyage, and the losses must not be too great. Otherwise, when you return home, it will be difficult to deal with the encounter once you encounter it. ”

Colonel Will nodded, and after hesitating for a moment, he still couldn't help but say: "Then if we don't make a move, I'm afraid Kawasaki Takeo will ......"

Kalev looked at Will and smiled, looked at the sea in the distance and said, "We are known as the 'Empire on which the sun never sets', which means that the whole world is our territory. Wherever the sun shines, our territory shines on. Dongying ...... It's no exception. ”

When Will heard this, he immediately understood, nodded immediately, and stopped talking.

In front of Goshu Island, the Fujian Navy Division had begun to approach Kawasaki's fleet. Kawasaki kept looking at Naya Bay, but never saw Kalev and them dispatching.

Kawasaki Haifu seemed to think of something, and he scolded: "Yaga!"

At this moment, the arrows of the Fujian sailors had already been shot, and Kawasaki Haifu had to stiffen his head and shout: "Retreat! Retreat immediately!"

The flag bearer immediately began to wave the flag and call for retreat. The Kawasaki warship began to retreat in a panic. Yu Dayou was stunned for a moment, what is this for? If you want to withdraw, you haven't withdrawn before the fight, this has just begun, why did you retreat? Withdraw now, don't you show your back to fight yourself?

After thinking for a long time, Yu Dayou gave the other party a definition: "fool!" r1058
