Chapter 305: Pre-War Speech
Kan Shu looked at the naval soldiers in front of him who were a little demoralized, and his heart was full of helplessness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since its establishment, the Navy has indeed done a lot of things.
At the earliest, five first-generation fast crab boats smashed the pontoon bridge and destroyed the Houjin Taiji's attempt to attack the south bank of the Yalu River, which could be regarded as saving the Xuan army, which was still very weak at that time.
Later, the nascent navy began to control the Yalu River, which has always been regarded as a strong guarantee to block the invasion of the Houjin
After the General's Mansion prepared to develop industry, a large number of fast crabs were built, and all the self-built merchant ships and stolen sea ships were also given to the navy, and the scale of the navy expanded rapidly.
Although, later, due to the dispersion of the territory, the general split the navy, assigned a part of the fast crabs to the coast guards of various administrative regions, and assigned most of the old transport ships to the civil affairs department.
However, the navy, which has all the cutting-edge ships built by the Xuan Army, such as five-masted large transport sailboats and Sea Shark-class warships, is still the strongest maritime force in the surrounding area.
However, the enemies of the Xuan army are basically land powers, and the sea power is too weak.
After the Jin, there were no warships capable of fighting at sea.
Dongjiang Town, the artillery on those guys' ships can't even compare to fast crabs, and any fast crab can sweep away a fleet of more than a dozen small boats in Dongjiang Town.
Moreover, after Mao Wenlong, the chief military officer of Dongjiang Town, was booby-trapped by Yuan Chonghuan, it was basically a mess of scattered sand, and the only little sea power was used to transport grain, and he had no intention of fighting his own navy.
In the coastal area of the Ming Dynasty, there is a guard post established by the general in the Ming Dynasty, acting as an intermediary, and the soldiers and ruffians of the Ming Dynasty will not fight with themselves at all.
Other pirate forces, after a parade of more than 100 ships on their side, recognized their strength and would not come up to find trouble.
As for the petty pirates, what threat can those forces that only have 1, 2 search and up to 3 or 4 search ships pose to a powerful navy? That would be a joke.
As a result, in this situation of looking around and without an adversary, the navy gradually developed some stinky problems.
The biggest problem is to cherish one's life.
Forever clinging to the dogma of relying on superior artillery to destroy the enemy from a distance.
This is a good tactic when dealing with petty pirates and other forces with weak artillery.
Because the artillery on those small ships is basically a small cannon with an effective range of 200 meters, 300 meters, and the farthest is only 400 meters.
Your own ships, close to 400 meters, and even many times, after approaching 300 meters, a round of rapid fire can solve the battle.
However, after a long period of combat experience with such a weak opponent, the navy that had developed was unable to do so after encountering a relatively strong enemy.
Just like today, because the enemy is able to shoot at about 8 or 900 meters and inflict close-range shells, the three Sea Shark-class warships did not dare to approach within 1,000 meters of the enemy ship.
Although the navy is very well trained, the effective range of the loaded guns can reach an astonishing 5,000 meters.
However, the artillery was not finalized for a long time, and the training time was too short.
Add to this the fact that there are no sea firing stabilizers, and there is no huge hull sufficient to counteract the wind and waves.
The accuracy of these heavy guns against ships is really poor.
Above 1,000 meters, a mere level 2 wind and wave caused all the dozen rounds of shelling to lose their accuracy.
At such a time, these navies under their command were still unwilling to take risks, get close to the enemy's effective range, and shoot at the enemy.
The current navy really lacks the spirit of the army's bayonet.
Kanshu decided to change the current situation, and Peter's fleet must not be allowed to escape today.
Otherwise, how can these people be worthy of their comrades-in-arms on the escort ship that was sunk by the enemy before, and how can they be worthy of the comrades of the coast guard who bought time for their own side without knowing the truth.
If you really let go of the enemy, how can you have the face to go back, it is better to die on this sea.
Thinking of this, Kan Shu decided to give it a go and make a final mobilization.
If that doesn't work, then use the officer's power to force the ships to use bayonet tactics.
Although it is likely to cause a backlash from the fighters, there is no way back.
"Brethren, for several years I have often heard gossip that our navy lacks fighting spirit and never has the courage of the army to meet the red with a bayonet.
Whenever I hear this kind of rumor, I always dismiss it and think it's all nonsense.
Our Navy has always been tough guys. True naval officers are never afraid of war.
You are here today for three reasons.
One, you are here to defend your hometown and your loved ones.
Second, you are here for honor, and you hope to fight for a future.
Third, you are here because you are real men, and real men never shrink at home and wait for the enemy to enter our homeland, we will always take the initiative.
We love winners. There is never forgiveness for losers. Even more despise cowards.
Since the soldiers are in the war, they must win. We scoff at the kind of people who laugh when they lose.
Because of this, our Xuan army has never lost a war so far, and will not lose in the future.
A real soldier will hate even a thought of defeat that arises in his mind.
That's right, everyone will be timid. If someone says he's not afraid, it's a lie.
Some people are timid, but this does not prevent them from fighting like warriors, because if other equally timid comrades fight there and they stand by and watch, they will be ashamed.
The real hero is a man who fights bravely even if he is timid.
Some fighters are in the line of fire for less than a minute before overcoming their fears. Some take an hour. For others, it takes about a few days.
However, true manhood will not let the fear of death prevail over the sense of honor and responsibility.
Fighting is the competition in which men who are unwilling to be inferior can best show their guts.
The battle will force out the great, and the small will be eliminated.
Remember, the enemy is as afraid as you are, and probably even more. They are not invulnerable.
We have the best provisions, the best weapons and equipment, the most vigorous fighting spirit and the best fighters in the world.
Honestly, I pity the dog mongrels who will fight us.
Every soldier must not only think about himself, but also think about his comrades-in-arms who were born and died together. There is no room for cowards in our army.
All cowards should be slain like rats.
Otherwise, after the war they will slip home and give birth to more cowards.
Lao Tzu is a hero, and Lao Tzu is a coward.
Kill all the dog-day cowards, and our country will be the world of warriors.
After returning home in triumph, the brethren here today will be given a qualification to boast about.
Twenty years later, you'll be glad you've joined the Navy and fought against foreign enemies.
At that time, when you are by the fireplace, your grandson sits on your lap and asks you, "Grandpa, what have you been doing all your life?" 】
You don't have to cough in embarrassment, move your grandson to the other knee, and say, "Ah...... Grandpa: I was shoveling manure at a farm in the northern part of the country. 】”
On the contrary, brothers, you can look him in the eye and say with confidence: "Grandson, grandfather, I fought side by side with a group of comrades-in-arms in the Navy to defend the country!" We have struck hard at the scum that wants to encroach on our good life. 】”
