Chapter 1122: Tripartite Cooperation

"Uncle, the Heavenly Army is so strong" The Japanese Naval Division will be defeated, how is it not the blessing of Korea? ”
Li Sunsin's nephew is also a general of the naval division, no matter where in this era, they are all father and son soldiers, and this Li Guan is Li Sunsin's deputy general. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Hearing his nephew's inquiry, Yi Sunsin shook his head, leaned on the side of the ship and looked at the Daming sailors sailing on the side of the North Korean fleet, and after being silent for a long time, he spoke again: "If a country develops its troops and horses on the sea, it has a heart of expansion, and North Korea is on the side of the Ming Dynasty, how can it be a blessing?" ”
"The king still asks for attachment, there is nothing wrong with being a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, I haven't been to Jingshi, but Liaoyang is stronger than Seoul, I don't know how much."
Li Wan did not agree with Li Sunsin's words, and muttered a few words there, Li Sunsin's eyes widened, and he wanted to scold until the end but there was no exit, Li Wan also knew that it was wrong, and hurriedly ran to the side to take care of the ship.
The current wind direction is a tailwind for the fleet, and this wind direction is a great advantage, and the ships of the naval division are full of sails, but now the ships of the Daming naval division are lowering their sails, because their speed is far higher than that of the North Korean fleet, and it is better to go hand in hand.
In the Ming fleet, there are three large ships of different sizes clustered around the three large Western ships, and you can see a large Western ship with the handsome flag of the sailor.
However, this is not the focus of Li Sunsin's attention, the twenty-four ships outside the Ming fleet are what makes him frightened, this is said to be the civilian volunteer fleet by the Ming Navy, four of which are larger than the flagship of the Ming Army's naval division, and there are more artillery on it, when he was in the port, he sent people to see what the names of these ships are called "Flying Deer, Sea Tiger, Seal, Sea Wolf" I thought it was invited to help, but my subordinates reported that there were indeed a few people on the ship, but most of them were sailors and crews of the Celestial Empire.
In addition to these four large ships, the remaining twenty are also gunboats with nearly thirty guns, and they look like allies of the Japanese Invaders.
Yi Sunsin had always been quite confident in the tortoiseshell ships and banya ships of the Korean sailors, and he felt that with such powerful ships, the DPRK would not invade others, but it was completely more than enough to protect itself.
North Korean officials have a set of methods for dealing with the Ming military generals, although Ping'an Dao was ravaged and dilapidated by the Japanese invaders, but there is wine and meat, although there is not much gold and silver, but there are some passable-looking women who are also comfortable to serve, and they know a lot of insiders.
It turned out that this fleet was the private property of Liao Guogong, and it was used for maritime trade on weekdays, and even the Western gunboats in the Daming Navy Division were built by the shipyard of Liao Guogong.
After knowing these news, the generals of the North Korean Navy Division felt incredible, how much silver is needed for such a big ship, and the tortoiseshell ships built by North Korea are all accumulated by three generations, and how much money is spent on such a large and small gunboat, the materials consumed, and the amount of silver spent.
To what extent is the Duke of Liao who can have such strength, Li Sunsin is also a character from two classes, and he has read the book in the past, and when he saw an idiom saying that it was "rich and rivaled the country", he always felt that this sentence was exaggerated and could be heard as a description of the ** general, so he felt that this word was appropriate.
However, it is said that there are ten such big ships in the Liao State Public Fleet, which are known to the outside world as the "Ten Seas Big Ships" and the remaining six have gone there, in fact, Li Sunsin also understands that twenty-four such ships have come out and can already be invincible, but the remaining six have gone there, this thought is always haunting the heart, in fact, the situation in North Korea is not much better than a few months ago, Pyongan Province and Hamgyong Province are about to recover the whole territory, although the Liao army failed, but the main force of the new Ming army is extremely strong, the recovery of the whole territory is just around the corner, but Yi Sunsin has no happy look, and the worry on his face is even heavier, and he doesn't know what he is worried about. ……………………
"The Japanese Navy will be handed over to Lord Zuo Shui, and the rest will have their own cuisine for our army!"
Someone received a flag command from the flagship of the Ming army, and a large number of Japanese and allied warships could already be seen off the coast of Incheon.
The wind direction in these days is the most favorable for the naval division coalition, because in the state of tailwind, the ships of the Ming army are much faster than the Japanese Kou, and the main battleships even exceed the ships of the Shen Wei fleet, even if the Japanese want to escape at sea, they will be caught up.
"Uncle, uncle!"
Li Guan shouted a few times, Li Sunsin came back to his senses, the big battle is imminent, the main general is actually distracted, Li Sunsin has been at the head of the highest layer of the tortoiseshell ship, there watching the "volunteer fleet" heard his nephew shouting, then he reacted, and hurriedly ordered: "Avoid the enemy's gunboats, close to the ships of the Japanese in close combat, charge and ignite the main, use firearms and bows and arrows carefully, be careful of being set on fire by the enemy, and be ready to raise flags and send signals at any time to ask the ships of the Heavenly Army to fight against the enemy gunboats, go and arrange it!" "This is the arrangement of the old general, Li Guan received the order, and hurriedly went over to arrange it.
The sails of the tortoiseshell and board houses were lowered one after another, the masts toppled over, and on both sides of the cabins on the lowest level, a huge oar with a large pole stretched out and fell into the sea, and then the trumpet sounded and the oars began to slide.
With the comparison of the previous battles, the Korean naval army was full of confidence, their own gunboats were definitely stronger than the other side's gunboats, and the Japanese naval division was definitely not an opponent, and Yi Sunsin also handed over the command to the right naval envoy of Gyeongsang Province, but he was carefully observing the movements of the Daming naval division.
North Korea is observing the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming side is also observing here, although the Feilu is relatively old among the ships, and the artillery is not the most powerful, but it is the first cannon ship of the Sanjiang fleet, and several commanders like to use this ship as the flagship, and the ship's building has also been refitted, which is more suitable for observation and command.
No one cares about the boat of the Japanese Kou, in the eyes of the people of the Sanjiang fleet, it is just a pig and sheep to be slaughtered, and no one cares about Shen Yuan's boat, because he is much weaker than the Daming Naval Division and the Sanjiang fleet, but everyone in the North Korean Naval Division is there to watch.
Seeing the tortoiseshell ship and the itachiya ship drop their sails, Juan muttered a sentence in Portuguese vernacular, and then said with a smile: "I really didn't expect to see a warship of Mediterranean warfare in the East." ”
Everyone around also knows the Mediterranean, which is a sea in Europe, because it is surrounded by several continents, so the sea is very calm, and there is rarely any wind and waves.
The so-called Mediterranean tactics are the way of playing the fleets of several Italian city republics, that is, very stable, very large ships, equipped with a large number of artillery, and then the maneuver during the battle relies on manpower to paddle and run, to put it mildly, it is a mobile battery and fortress posture.
Bulky is not a good description, but such a ship can be equipped with cannons with a larger caliber and longer range in coastal combat, because it is stable, and it is huge, and it has a greater advantage in collision, because it is stable, it can carry more foot soldiers, which can make foot soldiers more suitable for sea operations.
At some point, such warships were also the supremacy of the sea, until the appearance of the Galen and Clark ships, they could also build larger, but they were more mobile, and they could sail the oceans, which gradually eliminated the original large offshore ships, Juan did not expect to see them here.
The ships of the North Korean Navy Division made everyone sigh, but what everyone didn't expect was that Shen Vao's fleet did not escape, and actually met it like this.
"I was so determined to mess with the devils, I thought they were either running or surrendering!"
Someone scolded in a low voice, the ships of the Daming Navy Division had already met them, and the tortoiseshell boats and banwu boats over there collided with the Japanese ships, and then set fire to the arrows, which was really majestic. After the wide ships without many artillery guns shot at each other, they dodged and collided with each other, and when they got closer, they jumped into the gang with knives and killed.
Compared to this kind of wonderful battle, the battle between the gunboats is very boring, and both sides change formations at sea, both trying to seize the upper hand.
The fleet slowly stretched out in the changing formation, the gun windows were opened, the officers in the cabin were there cursing loudly urging the soldiers to load their ammunition, the sailors on the ship were nervously changing the sails and steering the rudder, and the captain was staring at the flagship's Xinyi back and forth, gathering close to each other, and at last they were close enough, and thunder sounded on the sea.
Yi Sunsin, who was watching the battle there, shuddered and could see the sudden white smoke between the two fleets, and on the other side of the fleet queue, countless water columns could be seen exploding.
The white smoke had not yet dissipated, and the deterioration of Shen's fleet could already be seen, many of the ship's masts had been broken, and some had begun to sink.
I could see that the fleet of the Daming Navy Division changed its formation again, but this time Shen Yuan's fleet did not resist, and simply erected a white flag.
Compared with such a simple and boring battle, the Daming Navy Division is much more exciting, Chen Phosphorus's trained naval army is much more superb than Shen Vao's fleet and the Japanese in terms of tactics and cooperation, as time goes on, the advantage is getting bigger and bigger, Shen Vao's fleet wants to get out of the battlefield, but it is always surrounded by the fleet of the Daming Naval Division, and then eats it, and continues to pursue.
"My lord, another Japanese ship has been crashed!"
There was a burst of cheers on the tortoiseshell boat where Yi Sunsin was, and their side was also fighting smoothly, and the Japanese were also fighting to the death, but whether it was in terms of equipment or fighting spirit, they were far behind, and the alliance that the Japanese could count on had also been defeated, and their end was annihilated.
At this time, the Korean sailors also had the meaning of parting with the Daming sailors, and they all took the lead, and the cheers and reports of the results of the battle continued to reach the ears of Yi Sunsin, but Yi Sunsin was not happy! ~!
