Chapter 1210: Bloody Battle of the Hirado Domain (8)
Zheng Cai turned around with difficulty, only to see that near the Hirado Island Fort, the gunshots had already sounded, and countless shells flew in the direction of the fort, and the entire fort was already shrouded in gunsmoke!
Broken!
Zheng Cai secretly screamed that he was patronizing the attack on the Ming naval fleet, but he forgot that the Ming army actually launched an attack on Hirado Island!
"Kill back? No, absolutely not! ”
Zheng Cai's thoughts flashed out one after another, and he quickly made a judgment, if he returned to help Hirado Island at this time, it would be equivalent to putting the fleet in danger again, once the Ming naval fleet repelled the Dongying fleet, turned around, and blocked himself in the Hirado Military Port again, he would be dead!
After repelling the Ming naval fleet in front of you, then you and Matsudaira Nobutsuna can pull out their hands and mobilize troops to besiege the Ming army on Hirado Island!
"Order, don't worry about the back, concentrate all your strength and besiege the Ming Navy fleet!"
Zheng Cai and Matsudaira Nobutsuna one after the other, once again launched a more fierce offensive, the two fleets together, more than 120 warships, and a flanking situation, although the strength of the Ming naval fleet is not under the two fleets, but the situation is a little bad.
Zheng Haotian stood beside Cha Xuan, and said in a deep voice: "Master Supervisor, the situation is a bit passive for us, although our strength is not under Zheng Cai and Dongying's fleet, but if we fight hard, even if we can win, it will be a miserable victory, and the gains outweigh the losses......"
"Brother Haotian, what do you say we should do?"
Cha Shu asked in a deep voice.
Zheng Haotian frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Temporarily withdraw from the battle, offset to the southeast and southwest, cover the landing of the Tianxiong army, as long as the Tianxiong army completes the landing, occupies Fukushima, and then attacks Hirado Island with all its might, after taking the two islands, the Tianxiong army will have a foothold, and when the time comes, it can be attacked and retreated!" After all, we are the main force in naval warfare, but once we attack the Dongying Islands, we will ultimately rely on infantry ......"
Cha Xuan nodded, and said fiercely: "Since this is the case, then contain Zheng Cai and Dongying Fleet here, and hold on for at least two hours to create time for Mufeng to land on Fukushima and Hirado Island!" Once Makikaze has completed the landing, the naval fleet abandons the battle and advances in a northeasterly direction! ”
Northeast?
Zheng Haotian was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "What are we doing in the northeast direction?" Governor Qin's army is on Fukushima! ”
"Humph!"
Cha Shu snorted coldly, "Since they dare to participate in the war, they must be prepared to pay a heavy enough price, the naval fleet is marching in the northeast direction with all its might, approaching Edo, I will turn him upside down in the old lair of the Tokugawa shogunate!" Let him know how many eyes Lord Ma has! ”
After all, in naval warfare, Zheng Haotian is still an expert, and it is better to let Zheng Haotian command independently.
The burden of thousands of catties was pressed on Zheng Haotian's head, Zheng Haotian gritted his teeth and shouted: "Order, the front army and the Chinese army resist the attack of Zheng Cai's army, and the left and right flanks will attack Dongying's fleet with all their might, remember, save your strength first, don't take risks!" Use rockets and cannons, either don't fight, as long as you hit out, then you have to inflict maximum damage on the enemy ships, aim at their waterline, and hit hard! ”
The three fleets continued to fight on the sea, and in a short period of time, it was impossible to distinguish the winner from the loser, especially Zheng Cai's fleet had rushed out of the bay, completely opened up the posture, the space was open, and it was no longer like just now that it could only be passively beaten, which suddenly increased the pressure on the Ming naval fleet, and in a short period of time, it was indeed not easy for the Ming naval fleet to win.
Fukushima, under the protection of the rear fleet, the Tianxiong army on the troop transport ship has landed, but the 60,000 troops, if they want to all land on Fukushima, it will take a long time, not to mention, these 60,000 Tianxiong army still carry a large number of artillery, ammunition and even war horses, I am afraid that there will not be a day and a night, and I want to complete the landing.
Qin Mufeng stood on top of the battleship, his eyes kept looking into the distance, and the telescope in his hand had never been taken down, with a solemn expression.
This is the first time he has participated in a naval battle, he can't help but be a little nervous, the fleet of the distant imperial court has been caught in the middle of the two fleets, although the fleet has not yet shown defeat, but after a long time, what is the outcome, Qin Mufeng has no bottom in his heart, after all, this place is far away from the rear, it is difficult to replenish ammunition, and the Zheng family fleet and the Dongying fleet can be replenished at any time.
"Grandma's!"
Qin Mufeng gritted his teeth, but he couldn't stretch out his hand, there was no way to do it in a hurry, for the first time, Qin Mufeng felt that there was nowhere to go, no matter how powerful the Tianxiong Army was, it was useless now, and the artillery couldn't hit the shells fifteen or sixteen miles away, right?
"Zhao Mingxuan, lead your rear army camp, immediately turn around Lao Tzu, and go straight to the Dongying fleet in the south, grandma's, kill them all for me!"
Qin Mufeng finally couldn't sit still, and shouted at Zhao Mingxuan, the general of the rear army battalion.
Zhao Mingxuan grinned and said urgently: "My lord, if the last general is transferred away from the rear army camp, what will you do with the Xiongjun army this day?" Once Dongying still has a fleet transferred over and besieges the Tianxiong Army, then we will have to pay an extremely heavy price, this risk is not to be taken! ”
"Fart!"
Qin Mufeng shouted angrily: "And the fleet? Where is the fleet? Don't you take a look, this Dongying fleet has sixty or seventy warships, if there is still a fleet, then the strength of Dongying's sailors will surpass the Fujian sailors by a large margin, how can Zheng Zhilong dominate the East Ocean in these years? Even if there are three or two small fish and shrimp, Lao Tzu still has a hundred artillery pieces here, and all of them will be sent to the western sky! Hurry up, don't grind for Lao Tzu, otherwise, Lao Tzu will cut you! ”
Qin Mufeng was furious, Zhao Mingxuan fought a cold war, when he faced Inspector Cha, who was in charge of the superintendent, he didn't have such a huge pressure when he faced Inspector Qin, he couldn't afford to provoke it, he really couldn't afford to provoke it, once this guy became popular, he would kill people!
That's it! People are dying in the sky, fight hard!
Zhao Mingxuan gave an order, transferred all the only more than ten warships back, and began to rush towards the battlefield!
Far away, there was still a distance of six or seven miles, Zhao Mingxuan directly issued the order to attack, ten battleships, dozens of artillery pieces were all put into the battle, and dozens of shells hit the left flank of the Dongying fleet!
Boom Boom!
A cannonball slashed through the air, hitting the left flank of the Toei fleet, Matsudaira Nobutsuna is also a veteran on the sea frontier, hearing the sound of cannons, he felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, the cannonballs were already close at hand!
Not good!
