Single Ship Meeting
Chapter 567:Single Ship Meeting
The improved biplane can carry 500 kg of load, and the internal cargo warehouse is much larger.It can barely be used as a bomber to play the "daughter of the sky" - flat-haired flying, accompanied by a soldier responsible for throwing, can lose dozens of five kilograms of explosives in one go.
These explosive bags have not yet landed, and the slaves on the ground have begun to clutter.A lot of people are thinking—oh, this Han is really strong, and it must have come to throw stones.It doesn’t matter, just avoid it.
When these "rives" continue to fall, each will explode the ground into a large pit, incidentally throwing all the people and things around the pit.Many of the soldiers were fried chicken flying dogs jumping on the side, while scolding in their hearts - knowing that the Han people were definitely not good things.It would explode if it was thrown away!
In a few seconds, he went out a hundred meters away, and looked back and saw that the front line he had laid was bombarded by this air strike.The smoke of the dynamite bag rose up, obscured the sight of many people, and caused a mess.He only felt the blood of his heart, and when thousands of his soldiers were finished.
The two-winged aircraft crossed an arc in the air and flew away.
The irritated and depraved Goultai returned to this front position again, and found that the people who were killed were not many.The hundreds of kilograms of explosives also killed more than 100 people, plus a gun was destroyed.The gun in the gun level is skewed, but it is no problem to correct it.This injury can be sustained.
A closer look, mainly the fortifications built by the chest wall of frozen soil have played a good protective role, and the ground has not been able to blow up how much floating soil and debris, the power of the explosives have rushed to the sky, and the secondary injury is very low.Except for the unlucky people who were in the range of the explosives, others felt that a strong wave of gas above their heads was blowing, and they were scared enough.
"It's great to have a chest wall, a chest wall, a chest wall."A deeply fortunate breather of Goltai was greatly relieved.He immediately had a deep understanding of the role of the fortification, and immediately ordered: "Let the slaves build more frozen earth walls, add the gun to the cover, and lay the wood and add the soil to the water and freeze."
After Zhou Qingfeng sent flat hair, he soon found that the level of such indiscriminate throwing of explosive packs was extremely low.The dynamite is also poorly damaged when faced with a strong fortification consisting of frozen soil.As long as the slaves hide behind the chest wall, they are killed by a few.
Zhou Qingfeng observed the gun at the mountain customs for half a day, and found that his bombing action had forced the slaves to cover his gun.He scratched his head – the explosive pack had a good effect on the damage of the unprotected target, but it was worse for this protection.
“Continue to fight and aim at the artillery that destroys the enemy.”Zhou Qingfeng commanded the artillery of the fortress on the wall.
The fortnon on the wall was not impenet to be fired, but to not be able to strike the only firing hole on the enemy's gun level 1,500 meters away.The hole is only about one meter wide, and a little deviation can only be hit on the chest wall of the gun built on the frozen soil.Although the accuracy of the gun is worse, the goal of the mountain customs is too large.Shooting down, or the "revolutionary army" is more at a disadvantage.
"I have to find another way."Zhou Qingfeng left the wall and saw Xu Bing coming to him with a heavy face, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Two news.”Xu Bing has always been brief when he is serious, "one is the 12th Infantry Brigade in the direction of Tianjin and the two militia brigades arrived at the mountain customs by sea yesterday."As you please, they arrive in the morning and leave again in the afternoon to Suizhong County in the Liaxi Corridor, ready to intercept the back road of Yangurtai.It will probably take two days.Another news...”
Xu Bing handed Zhou Qingfeng a copy of the manuscript.From the paper used in the manuscript and look up, it is the highest level of divine communication, from the Shandong side.Zhou Qingfeng also thought that the small court in the south was going to be a mess, but it turned out to be an encampment document, and the letter was "Consul General of the Dutch East India Company in Batavia, Sir Thomas Roy."
This is still a Chinese-Dutch thing, and it seems very formal.Xu coldly said, "Your previous worries and speculations were right."
The frowned of the frowned.The letter was written to "General Zhou, the leader of the Revolutionary Army of the East", and wrote a bunch of nonsense at the beginning, and at the end, he said the truth.
It is said that Sir Roy led a huge fleet from the south, commissioned by the great gold lord Nurhachi, to mediate the war between the "revolutionary army" and the big gold country, and hoped that the "revolutionary army" to open Tianjin and other ports to foreign trade.
"In imitation of the Guangdong trench mirror precedent, open up a prosperous place for Dutch merchant ships to dock and repair, and allow Dutch missionaries to preach freely?"When he saw it, he lost the letter directly.He asked Xu Bing with anger, “Where did the letter come from?”
But Xu Bing picked up the letter and collected it properly.
“This is from Li Shuwei from Shandong.An armed merchant ship of the Dutchman suddenly appeared in Weihai, Shandong Province, and delivered the letter to our local officials.The officer who received the letter was an idiot who at first ignored it and did not report it to us.It was not until a large fleet appeared at the junction of the Yellow Bohai Sea that the official realized the seriousness of the problem.
At present, it is not clear the situation on the sea surface, and how many enemies do not know, and it is necessary to send biplanes to investigate.In addition, I have informed Zhao Ze in Jinzhou that he is rushing to the Jinzhou Shipyard to organize a naval search for the unscrupulous Dutchman.
I was worried that this Western fleet would be inserted directly into Bohai Bay, and they might attack Tianjin, or we might attack the troop carriers we are at sea, more likely to intercept our sea lines of communication.Our maritime power is still too weak.”
As the so-called "ten years of the army, a hundred years of the Navy", the Navy's requirements for the quality of personnel are too high.Now the maritime forces of the "Revolutionary Army" have just been established, and Zhou Qingfeng has not trained many sailors and officers for a while.There are also no ships.
The worst-case scenario will not wait for the “Revolutionary Army” to be ready to happen again.
He looked at her face and took a deep breath.But without waiting for him to speak, Xu Bing rushed to say: "You are the commander-in-chief, don't think about everything to solve your own, sit in the customs of the town."This is for Zhao Ze to deal with, let the Navy deal with it.”
At present, Fire Feng and Ice Emperor are responsible for defense in the sea cover line, and Zhuo is in the grassland.Zhao Ze is not only responsible for the machinery factory, but also takes into account the Dandong line.People who cross the team also do their job, no one can go.At present, only the Navy's Zhu Chengqi can be sent to the scene.The Navy commander has always belonged to the "no general in Shu, Liao as a pioneer" posture exists, and there are few opportunities to show his face.
Zhou Qingfeng also knew that he could not pack the world, and many things had to let go of the people below.He listened to Xu Bing’s advice, sighed, and said, “Then I don’t care about anything?”
"In our strength now, experiencing some setbacks will only make us grow better."You should stay in Beijing to prepare for the founding ceremony."Xu Bing said.
Zhou Qingfeng laughed bitterly, "Well, I let go, I let go, give my hands room to grow."Even outside the mountain customs, I will not bother to worry, and see how the tall cattle will respond.As for the Sir Roy...”
“Did the ghost know where the jumper came from?”Zhou Qingfeng's eyes were cold, and the other could endure, but the Western fleet could not bear it, "Tell Zhu Chengqi, I want to completely destroy this Roy's fleet."If he can't finish the task, he won't do it."With that, Grandpa Zhou shook his hand and breathed back to his office.
Mr. Zhou is a loser, but the jumper clown in his mouth is directing the fleet to do the "frequent" shape forward in the sea.The south wind is occasionally the south wind these days, and most of the time it is the north wind.After departing from Songjiang Province, Sir Roy ran for five days to the sea in Shandong.He soon saw a steamship sailing on the sea.
A standard transport ship on the route from smooth to Pyongyang is sailing at eight knots.When the watchman reported the situation, Sir Roy was extremely shocked.This shows that the offshore transport ship seen before is not the highest level of the shipbuilding industry of the Revolutionary Army.
The wreckage of the blown-up steam engine was on the Amsterdam.After the study of several carpenters, it was completely incomprehensible, and at most said that the steel that made the machine was very high quality, far exceeding the current smelting level in Europe.There are some parts of the processing accuracy is very high, especially the crankshaft of several parts fit perfectly, can not imagine how this is made?
Sir Roy was silent about the carpenter's words.At the watchman's reminder, he himself climbed to the mast to look at the steamboat about two or three nautical miles away.The ship had no sails, not even the masts, but it ran fast in black smoke.
"Eight knots of speed, the key is that it does not have a good wind."Sir Roy estimated the speed of the ship and put down the telescope in his hand.He sighed a few times but more firmly in his heart—we the Dutch deserved this magical machine.No matter how much it costs, you have to get it.
After re-evaluating his opponent’s strength, Sir Roy wrote a letter to the leader of the Revolutionary Army in a self-describedly “friendly” tone.After praising the general who dominated the East, he made his own proposal, “taughtly.”He felt that he only needed a piece of land to do business, repair, and missionary requests were very appropriate, and not excessive.The Week of the East should be generous.
Fan Wencheng, who accompanied the ship, expressed strong opposition, but unfortunately the objection was invalid.
The letter was sent to Weihai by an armed merchant ship and asked to be handed over to the commander of the Revolutionary Army.Sir Roy said he hoped to make a stop in Weihai, get supplies and wait for the reply of General Zhou.
But the “Revolutionary Army” officials in Weihai did not hesitate to reject the request.But when Sir Roy’s seven large ships and dozens of ‘small boats’ appeared, the officials panicked.This caused Sir Roy to feel that he could not communicate with these stupid natives, so he decided to go directly to Tianjin, hoping to open a straight route to the north of this great power.
Throughout Sir Roy's whole decision-making process, neither he nor the other captains accompanying him thought that they might be rejected or even aroused resentment.Western colonists spent too much time in the Far East, so long that they did not realize they would fail.
The sail fleet sailed slowly on the sea, and they were about to enter the Bohai Sea through the old iron mountain waterway south of the smooth.Fan Wencheng on the ship, after understanding Sir Roy's decision, was relieved that "the people of Tessie did not understand at all, and they would certainly provoke the Revolutionary Army in such a way that they would inevitably meet."
Looking at the huge fleet sailing on the sea, Fan Wencheng expressed strong confidence in the next possible situation, "These large ships such as the Taixi people, Daming Haijiang, and the ships raised by the Jiangnan court and the sea merchants, as long as they arrive in Tianjin will inevitably seriously damage the 'Revolutionary Army'."Fan is also not a sweater.”
Fan Wencheng is full of emotion, and Sir Roy is full of hope.The whole fleet was morale high, hoping to reach the land of gold in Marco Polo Travels to recreate the glory of the Spanish occupation of the Inca Empire.
At this time, the watchman of the fleet suddenly shouted on the mast: "Sir Roy, there is a big ship in the north, the speed is very fast, it looks like a warship!"
A very fast ship?
Sir Roy was stunned for a few seconds when he heard a very strong whistle on the sea in the distance.A beautiful warship with a flowing appearance and white paint sprang out of the fog at sea level and threw itself at Amsterdam.
Yes, there is only one of them!
