Chapter 870: The Enemy Attack (Page 1/1)

There was no suspense on Xiangjiang Island, and within three days, Mao Wenlong led the Dongjiang Army to wipe out all the Yi people on the island, and all of them were executed.

However, just as things on the island were dealt with, bad news came just in time. The fleet of the Japanese and the fleet of the Okushima were killed at the same time.

The situation became tense again, and Mao Wenlong immediately convened his subordinates to discuss how to deal with it.

After counting the casualties of the Yiren fight on Dangping Island, he said to Mao Wenlong: "General soldier, this time we killed more than 20,000 enemies, and our army suffered about 5,000 casualties. ”

Mao Wenlong frowned slightly: "Why are there so many casualties?" ”

You must know that the Dongjiang Army is completely pressing the Yi people to fight this time, and under such circumstances, it really shouldn't have been so big a casualty!

He cautiously glanced at Ah Dou beside him, who understood and took the initiative to explain to Mao Wenlong: "The general soldiers of Qiqi are all incompetent subordinates, and they let a thousand secret guards be plotted, which led to such a large casualty. ”

Mao Wenlong suddenly came over, and he really forgot about it. After being silent for a moment, Mao Wenlong waved his hand and said, "That's it, I can't blame you for this." ”

Adou felt very guilty when he heard this, after all, it was the life of a thousand secret guards. If this was left in normal times, Mao Wenlong would have to be furious.

Mao Wenlong didn't let Adou continue to be sad, and now is not the time to be sad. A strong enemy may come at any time, so you should prepare for it in advance.

"Haoda, how is our combat power now, how much gunpowder and fierce fire oil are left?" These are the key, as long as there is enough fire oil and gunpowder, combined with the use of hot air balloons. No matter how powerful the enemy army is, they can defeat them, and Mao Wenlong still has this confidence.

"General Qiqi, now that we have half of our fierce fire oil and gunpowder, it is enough to fight a hard battle. It's a pity that the soldiers have been tired from killing the enemy for several days, and if we continue to fight like this now, I'm afraid we won't be able to support it. "The vast face was full of sorrow.

Mao Wenlong pondered for a while, and said indifferently: "As long as there are enough things, it will be fine, if the enemy army comes, we can use hot air balloons to stop them at sea." The island only needs to be vigilant, and the others can rest during this time. ”

Hearing Mao Wenlong say this, Haoda and Adou also felt reasonable. It's just that the enemy army is attacking on a large scale, which shows that Fujian is now more than lucky.

Haoda was even more worried about the safety of Chengzuo and Lihui, he hesitated for a while and finally asked Mao Wenlong: "General soldier, what is the current situation in Fujian?" ”

Mao Wenlong sighed lightly and said, "It's not optimistic, the letter sent last night said. The sea area over there has been completely lost, but fortunately, the Dongjiang Army suffered few casualties, but completely retreated to the shore. ”

For the sake of the lives of his subordinates, Cheng Zuo chose to retreat to the shore in the face of the disparity in strength. This ensured the strength of the Dongjiang Army, but because of this, it had to give up the sea to the Japanese Invaders. Now in Fujian, the Dongjiang Army can't go to the sea.

This also proves that Chengzuo was unable to send troops from Fujian to join Mao Wenlong's sailors. The Dongjiang Army and Naval Division was already strong enough, but unfortunately the coastline of the Ming Dynasty was too long, and the troops needed to stay behind were far too large. This led to the continuous expansion of the Dongjiang Army's naval division, but it was never enough.

Haoda and Chengzuo glanced at each other when they heard this, but they didn't expect that this would be the case. If the situation in Fujian is not good, then it will definitely not be possible to come for reinforcements.

And now all the water divisions of the Dongjiang Army have been dispatched, and no troops can be sent to rescue them from other places. This means that Mao Wenlong's side can only deal with the Yi people and the Japanese Kou independently.

"General, if this is the case, can we deal with the current situation alone?" Haoda was very worried, after all, it was the Yi people and the Japanese who came together, and the preliminary estimate was that there were 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses, and more than 100 warships.

Mao Wenlong frowned, and said uncertainly: "I can cope with it or not, everything can't be decided." But in any case, we can't afford to lose this time. ”

Haoda and Adou immediately agreed: "Yes, none of us can lose." ”

Mao Wenlong immediately waved his hand and said, "Then there is nothing to worry about, let's go down and arrange it quickly." It is estimated that the enemy army may arrive at any time. ”

"Yes, Commander!" Haoda and Adou immediately gave their leave.

Mao Wenlong stood alone on the dock, looking at the vast sea in the distance, his heart fluttering. For the Dongjiang Army, the current advantage of naval warfare is not obvious, and the only hot air balloon to rely on is once it encounters stormy weather, or the enemy army has a way to deal with it. The Dongjiang Army will inevitably suffer a devastating blow.

In order to continue to maintain the military superiority of the Dongjiang Army, it is necessary to continue to innovate, and it is a good way to study new firearms, but it is a pity that the current technology and technology of the Ming Dynasty are far from meeting this requirement.

The feeling of being powerless was very helpless, and Mao Wenlong became even more dazed, and he began to wonder if he was too rash to expand his strength at sea in a hurry. Or, as Hong Chengchou said, wait for the Ming Dynasty to really recover in the future, and then plan for maritime power, so that there may not be the predicament he is facing now.

But in this way, it is bound to lose the opportunity. If you don't take advantage of the time to beat out the Yi people or the Japanese Kou, so that they are still entrenched next to the Ming Dynasty to develop, it will definitely be a big disaster. When they really grow stronger in the future, it will not be easy for the Dongjiang Army to eliminate them.

Thinking about it, it is a dilemma, and Mao Wenlong is very upset at the moment. But one thing is for sure, he has no choice now. Then what is there to be embarrassed and hesitate about, when it is broken, what is the big deal for the mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

After figuring it out, there is nothing to worry about, Mao Wenlong is in a much more relaxed mood, and his eyes looking at the open sea are even more firm. In front of the Dongjiang Army, there is nothing that cannot be defeated, self-confidence, unprecedented self-confidence occupies Mao Wenlong's entire mind.

Suddenly a dense hot air balloon appeared on the sea, which was led by Hao Da, responsible for deploying defenses against the Japanese and Yi people on the sea. If all goes well, it is very likely that the enemy will be able to repel the enemy in one go.

But this is the best result imaginable, and Mao Wenlong did not put all his bets on it. Another real line of defense has begun to be built on Xiangjiang Island, and it will not be easy for the enemy to attack the island.

"Woo woo woo ......"

A horn sound came faintly, and Mao Wenlong's spirit was slightly shocked, he knew that this was the horn sound of the Dongjiang Army preparing to attack.
