The Great Ming Reversal

Chapter 320: Shelling the island

Views:

Ten days later, Wei Ming brought hundreds of warships to the island where the Dutchman was hiding. From the binoculars, we could still see the silhouettes of people on the island. It seems that the huge fleet has a great impact on the Dutchman, as can be seen from their panicked expressions.

"Master Hou, shall we start attacking now?" Lu Xiangsheng looked at the sky, it was already late today, and it was estimated that it would be dark in another hour. Although the island where the Dutchman is hiding has no strength, it will definitely not be able to be attacked in such an hour.

"Order, now the warships are bombarding the small island ahead. First pull out their shore defense guns and the few remaining boats to attack the enemy's resistance will. If you can surrender, it's best. Yes. If you can't surrender, let's explore the other party's situation, don't have any big killers waiting for us. It's also good to lay a good foundation for tomorrow's total attack." Wei Ming said. Lu Xiangsheng hesitated for a moment, or he insisted on making arrangements, but in his heart he said, Dutchman, you must hold on! My Marine Corps hasn't come in handy yet, don't you just surrender like this!

"Boom boom boom!" The roar of artillery rang through the sky and the earth, and Wei Ming was covering his ears, but he was cursing in his heart. Grandma's, no matter what time it was the cannon, the sound was always so loud. The brothers who fired the guns can't stand it if they don't say anything else, this ear definitely can't stand it. Whenever the cannon can be fitted with a silencer.

The Dutchman did not lose the will to resist. Although the Dutchmen who were blown up into the sky could be seen from the telescope from time to time, the dead group came up again, and there was no preparation for playing White. Even halfway through the fight, dozens of warships sailed out of the harbor hidden by the Dutchman. But he was beaten back just after showing his head. Now the Dutchman's small sampan simply can't get into the eyes of the Ming dynasty navy. It can only be ashamed to take it out.

The sky gradually darkened. When the last corner of the sun also disappeared on the sea level, the Ming army stopped the shelling, and the ship burst into cheers. The sunset mirrors the water and the sky is uniform, and the sunset glow that has not yet dissipated makes this cheer very suitable. In contrast, the Dutchman's position was deadly silent, and they couldn't be seen from the telescope, and they didn't know that everything went under the ground.

"Report loss." Wei Ming said. After the battle, he used to listen to his own losses first, and then to see the results. He built this navy with one hand, and it hurts him even if he died. And the Dutchman, anyway, you can't kill them all, it doesn't make much difference in Wei Ming's mind that one or two die.

"It was reported that two warships violated the rules of operation. They were too close to the enemy’s position. They were hit, ten people were killed, and the warship sank and injured one. Fortunately, the soldiers who fell into the sea were rescued in time, and no cause was caused. Too much loss." The little official below reported.

"Where are the captains on the two warships?" Wei Ming asked, frowning. Can this happen? When Wei Ming established this team, he set up the rules of war. The soldiers must strictly abide by the rules, and they must not slack off. And over the years, based on actual combat experience, Lu Xiangsheng and naval officers and soldiers have also added a lot of new things to the code, making this code more and more perfect. And now someone has blatantly violated it. What does it mean? When I don’t exist, can’t it happen? Do you still feel that now that the war has been won, you can be arrogant? Don’t you know that the arrogant soldier will be defeated

"The captains of the two warships are being escorted over, and they must be coming soon," said the little official.

"You don't need to come here, drop two levels and pay half a year in fines. Each person will receive twenty whips. Tell the executioner that if you want to eat this meal in the navy, you will give me the twenty whips! During the war, you blatantly violated the rules of war. You don’t want to live anymore. Don’t the soldiers below have to be buried with you? Also, half of the pension for the dead and wounded soldiers is deducted from the salary of these two guys with no eyesight. !" Wei Ming said gloomily. Originally, it was necessary to beheaded to violate the rules of war, but Wei Ming still couldn't make this determination after all. I just hope that they can reform.

"Yes." After the little official recorded it, he should go down and pass the order.

"Why, look at the way you always want to talk, are you dissatisfied with my decision?" Wei Ming glanced at Lu Xiangsheng who was hesitant next to him and said.

"Master Hou, I'm also to blame for this matter. I usually only educate the soldiers to fight first, but also ignore the importance of the rules of war. Master Hou will punish you!" When such a thing occurs, Lu Xiangsheng, the person in charge, can't get rid of the relationship. . However, Wei Ming waved his hand and did not intend to punish Lu Xiangsheng. Instead, he said, "Humans, you will remember your memory only after an accident. I hope you can remember this lesson. An army must have a soul. Iron strikes. There is no military camp that has the same group of soldiers. If your military camp has no soul, then the soldiers will be messing around when they come in, and they will get rewards. Let’s not talk about the combat effectiveness, the military discipline must not be counted on. If this barracks has a soul, then whoever comes here must inherit this soul, and be proud of it, and carry it forward. Our Guangzhou Navy must not only take it It is famous all over the world for its high income and silver, and it must be famous for its strict military discipline, thoughtfulness, and soul. Do you know what I mean?" Wei Ming turned his head and stared at Lu Xiangsheng and said.

"Master Xie Hou will understand." Lu Xiangsheng said very loudly, but Wei Ming didn't have any hope that Lu Xiangsheng could understand this. Now even the concept of defending the home and the country is very vague, let alone the soul of the army. The spirit of the army can be a slogan, a performance in a battle, or an ethereal goal, or a spirit that is expressed and passed down by the generals. Just like when the general of Chu State Xiang Yan called out that although Chu has three households, Qin must be destroyed by Chu, it can also be regarded as a kind of military soul. After that, Xiang Yu even carried it forward, making Jiangdong's soldiers all disadvantaged. And Wei Ming is not optimistic about this kind of phased slogan. It is as if Chu had no goals after destroying Qin back then. When it's done, it's shattered. He still prefers slogans like joining the army and defending the country. In other words, it is the spirit of being able to fight tough battles, daring to fight tough battles, not afraid of death, and not complaining. Speaking of it, it feels abstract, and it is more difficult to understand. However, every sentence will be understood differently in the eyes of different people, and maybe Lu Xiangsheng can comprehend something more advanced from it.

Entering the war mode, Wei Ming, of course, has to be a role model for being less than female. Except for the women's guard, the other female guards were all placed on a boat alone, falling far behind the fleet, and sending some boats to protect them. It is said that the navy did not allow women to board the ship, saying it was unlucky. Wei Ming can also understand. After serving as a soldier for three months, the sows are able to race Diaochan. You put some women on the boat. This is not because you are deliberately uncomfortable. What's more, you are all faced with some killers with red eyes. If you dare to stop then, it would be weird not to bomb the camp. So there is a reason to say that it is unlucky. If it weren't for this war that won't last long, Wei Ming would never bring these women. In his opinion, this time is more like traveling than fighting. Commanded to be careful, the enemy took advantage of the night sneak attack and returned to his cabin. Although sailing at night is dangerous, rabbits will bite people when they are anxious. There is always nothing wrong with being careful. The patrol team has been sent, and some mines have been placed around it. There shouldn't be any problems.

Qin Yuxin was guarding Wei Ming's door, staying at every step, and Wei Ming didn't plan to let her go in and rest. Now, Qin Yuxin is Wei Ming's personal commander, and can be regarded as a general, big and small. At war now, the whole army must abide by military regulations. A man cannot stand without credibility, and an army cannot fail with prestige. Even if it's pretending, you must pretend to behave these days. Wei Ming thinks so, and Qin Yuxin thinks so.

The breeze blows, the night is as cool as water
