Goryeo, Jeolla Province, Tamna New City.
"Asshole, what are you water rats talking about! If there is no infantry like us charging ahead in the war, is it possible that your navy can still fight ashore in warships? You simply don't know what to say, in Yi Mou's opinion , instead of having time to grind your teeth here with me, you might as well think about how to deal with the fleet of wooden houses under the command of the naval commander Zhang Shen. Don't be beaten to pieces and have me wait for a step. The army will help you find your place..."
"It's ridiculous. Our navy has dozens of warships and hundreds of artillery. We are facing the defeated Koreans, and we will ask you landlubbers for help. It is really ridiculous and ridiculous! Lord, please allow me to wait for the navy representatives. Chiyang is going to fight, so we have to go and see what that useless Yuan Doupiao is capable of, and how dare he lead his army to stroke our Chiyang’s tiger beard!”
"Okay, Haoqi, all the sailor brothers are doing well, then we landlubbers will just wait for your good news on the shore!"
"Come on, let's show you bastards today what it means to be an elite. Don't catch a few green-skinned blind people all day long and brag that you are the backbone of Chiyang. You won't make people laugh..."
"Okay, okay, I haven't finished speaking yet. You guys are arguing here non-stop. Do you still have me as your lord in your eyes? Sit down, we are all good brothers who are as close as one family. What kind of landlubbers are there?" , water rats! Let me tell you, this time the Koreans have mobilized elites, so everyone must work together to eliminate them all!
As the saying goes, a fence has three stakes, and a hero has three gangs! No matter how elite you are, no matter how awesome you are, you can't do all the work by yourself! We have dealt with the Royal Camp Hall, the Training Supervisory Army, and the Korean Navy before, but this is the first time we have encountered the Ping An Musketeers under Liu Lin!
And since they dare to call themselves the most elite iron gunners in Korea, they must have some real skills. We must not take it lightly, lest we capsize in the ditch and make others laugh for nothing! Besides, the wooden boats used by the Goryeo navy were extremely difficult to deal with. Not to mention the thick and solid planks of the boats, the key was that they also had some blunderbuss capable of firing large arrows. It would be difficult for ship-borne artillery to attack them at a distance. What harm does distance do to them!
Previously, the cabin boats we encountered were difficult to deal with, but they were not many in number. Often a few boats would reach the sky, and at most there would be no more than a dozen boats! In this regard, we can also use artillery to attack from a distance and join a gang to win in hand-to-hand combat. However, this time Jianghua's left-behind and naval commander Zhang Shen has dozens of warships with wooden houses under his command, and there are countless other small boats and auxiliary ships. !
As the saying goes, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. If we meet them head-on this time, I'm afraid there will be a hard battle. A tough battle will be fought. At that time, we will need the cooperation of the navy and infantry brothers to give full play to our Chiyang's strength. All combat power! Therefore, starting from today, I don’t want you to call each other landlubbers or water rats, undermine each other, and hold each other back. Anyone who violates the rules, regardless of the cause of the accident or the size of the official position, will be dragged out and punished with thirty military sticks, and then deprived of the official position and driven away. Get out of the military camp! Did you all hear clearly? "
Looking at the officers under his command who were constantly noising in his ears like a group of ducks, Chief Kanglin Kang couldn't help but show a hint of helplessness on his face! To be honest, he had already expected the overt and covert struggle between the navy and infantry! After all, throughout the ages, few parties have been able to live in harmony with each other. On the contrary, there have been quite a few who have been in trouble because of military spending, or even outright opposed each other!
The most typical example is chicken on foot. During World War II, the Army built aircraft carriers and the Navy built tanks. Even an ordinary screw had to be left-handed or right-handed to distinguish the Army and the Navy! To be honest, this kind of thing would be a joke to others, but if it happened to yourself, no one would be able to laugh again!
Especially for an emerging force like Chiyang who lacks capital, any little disagreement may lead to the collapse of the entire team! And this is not what Conlin wants to see! Therefore, for the sake of the unity of the entire Chiyang, this fellow has set rules for the officers of the land and sea armies, allowing them to compete with each other within a controllable range, to express their own existence value to each other, and to try not to make them fall into the trap. The old way of chicken!
"Listen clearly. From now on, we will strictly abide by the Lord's orders, unite sincerely, and face difficult times together!"
"Very good, let's continue the meeting! According to the latest information, the six sentry horses led by Li Ruli, the vanguard of the expeditionary army and the training supervising army general, have arrived at Jindo, and have joined up with the Jeolla Province military envoy Shen Jingyu's troops to start building equipment. Japanese camp; at the same time, the commander of the army far away in Gyeonggi Province, the imperial camp generals Won Doo-pyo, Liu Lin and others have also led the army to board Zhang Shen’s warship, auxiliary ships, and started to Jindo. It is expected that in another ten to twenty days, the main force of the crusade will arrive at Jindo, and then they will directly enter the Beiwa camp; as for Jianghua's left-behind general Zhang Shen, he, Yuan Doupiao, Liu Lin and others set out on both fronts and backs. After the main force of the crusade arrives at Jindo, they will be able to arrive in a few days! Therefore, by the middle of next month at the latest, the 4,500-strong Koryo crusade will be fully in place! At that time, we, Chiyang, ask you to calm down and discuss how we should deal with them!"
"Lord, we will gather our troops and fight them with real swords and guns. We have fast muskets, cannons, and giant ships. If we face them, as long as the soldiers use their lives, we will be able to defeat them easily!"
"Inappropriate, inappropriate! The enemy has 4,500 elite soldiers, and all of our registered soldiers add up to only 2,000. It seems unwise to fight one against two. It is better to put them on the island to divide and attack them. , let’s concentrate our forces to attack every one of their troops, so that they can’t connect head to tail while focusing on one thing and the other!”
"Otherwise, we gather all the ships and then send them all out to be on guard. As soon as we see any trace of the enemy ship, we will send out flag rockets to contact other ships to come for help. The Korean ships have thick planks and have blunderbuss equipment. We can only concentrate all the ships." Only with warships, especially the four professional warships acquired by my lord this time, can they be wiped out in one fell swoop and completely destroyed on the sea!"
"Yes, yes, we have to keep them out of Tamna, otherwise the war will burn on the island. Not only the lives of new immigrants and naturalized people will be threatened, but also the villages, fortresses and towns we have worked hard to build. Until they are destroyed! By then, even if we can defeat and eliminate them all, it will be extremely difficult to rebuild them, especially those precious special God-given buildings. Once they are destroyed and burned by the rebels, our losses will be huge. Already..."
"Yes, we have to take the initiative to eliminate all dangers outside Tamna! Don't let any ship or enemy appear on Tamna Island! We have Brown Bass, Charleville Fusiliers, we There are 12-pound bronze cannons, 18-pound cast iron cannons, as well as military rice boats, rush boats, and old lock boats. As long as the brothers work together, they will be able to defeat the Koreans alone!"
Listening to the murderous shouts of his subordinates and generals, Kang Lin couldn't help but nodded! After all, they are brothers who started from humble beginnings together. Although there are some conflicts of one kind or another in daily life, if something really happens, they can still work together quickly by giving an order! It seems that the two major arms under his command will not take the evil path of confrontation between water and land, and trying to undermine each other! When he thought of this, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on the face of leader Kang Lin and Kang Da. He was about to praise them a few words, but he saw Chang Jiansheng, the mastermind of the Wen class, and Yan Si, the think tank of the Wu class, both looking at them. With a serious look on his face, before putting forward his opinion, he calmed down and asked the two of them in a deep voice,
"In Changzhi County, Yan joined the army, and other civil and military officials are brave enough to make suggestions. Why don't you say a word? But what are your thoughts? You might as well say it and let everyone listen..."
"My lord, your colleagues are right, and I have no objections! However, considering that the invading enemies are all the elites of Goryeo, I also ask my lord to recruit more young immigrants to assist the regular army in fighting! After all, Tamna Grand There are too many places on the island that can be used as landing points. We cannot effectively defend it with the existing troops we have! Therefore, I boldly ask my lord for permission to form three more temporary divisions of reserve troops, as well as three new A temporary brigade of attached troops is used for coastal defense! In addition, a large number of agents are immediately dispatched to sneak into the Jindo Biwa camp to gather information. Finally, they can sneak into the generals of the expeditionary army and provide us with accurate first-hand information at any time. In the end, know yourself and your enemy. Only then can you be victorious in every battle, right?"
"Lord, what Yan Canjun said is very reasonable! Temporarily recruiting young men to assist in the battle before the war, and sending capable officers to the enemy camp to find out information is what the title is supposed to mean. We have no objection to this! It's just in the official's mind I still have a few immature ideas that I would like to express for everyone to listen to. If there are any mistakes or omissions, I hope you will feel free to give me your advice and corrections!
First, the official believed that in addition to recruiting enough new immigrants to fight together, military stations should also be set up in several preset battlefields, and a large amount of gunpowder, lead bullets, artillery shells, food, cotton clothes, and felt blankets should be stockpiled in advance to avoid war. Everyone was in such a hurry that they could not effectively supply the frontline combat troops;
Secondly, the official believes that all young new immigrants who have received preliminary training should be mobilized in batches and let them become our reserve force. Although the punitive force sent by the Koreans this time only has 4,000 troops, no one can There is no guarantee that the former will not send more crusade troops next! Just in case, if the regular flag army and reserve troops suffer excessive losses in combat, the young and strong new immigrants with combat experience can very well make up for the gaps in the army, so as to avoid improvising and recruiting strong men to join the army, which will cause the overall combat effectiveness of the army to decline. Break!
