Chapter 555: There are 100,000 lives on your shoulders
Which two most difficult battles are in naval battles? There is no doubt that they must be boarding battles and landing battles. Among them, especially landing battles are the most difficult to fight. After all, people on the coast have an innate advantage. When soldiers get ashore, they will be subjected to intensive artillery, gunshots, arrow shootings, etc. Each attack method will expose the soldiers to the enemy's attack range like gun targets.
In order to reduce casualties, Yu Dayou chose to transfer the gunship to the front after chasing Nagasaki Port. The tower ship was scattered on both wings of the gunship.
After the formation was changed, the gunship began to attack. Rumble... The sound of artillery bombardment continued, and the Kawasaki soldiers guarding the shore were seriously injured.
Yu Dayou stood on the command ship and looked at the situation on the shore with a telescope. According to his estimate, the landing war will be started after about three rounds of artillery fire.
At this moment, he took off the telescope in his hand and took the triumphal sword given to him by Jiang Xia from his waist. "Sir, Shifu will return triumphantly soon, wait for good news from Shifu." Yu Dayou said in his heart.
Just as the thought was dissipated, a soldier suddenly shouted: "Sir! No, ships! Many warships!"
Yu Dayou was shocked. He had known the strength of the Kawasaki family. How could there be warships? There were many warships? Yu Dayou looked at the shouting soldiers, and saw the soldiers pointing behind the fleet with horror. Yu Dayou quickly picked up the telescope and looked behind him.
Sure enough, many warships were sailing quickly in their direction. Those warships were very tall, and each looked like a beast that could choose people to eat.
After Yu Dayou looked carefully, he was shocked. The warship...yes, that's right. Yes, it's that kind of warship. When the Kawasaki family sent people to Fuzhou to provoke the waters, the Fujian Navy's people seized a lot of warships, some of which were particularly good-quality warships, which were these warships.
In the past, Yu Dayou thought it was a ship snatched from where the Kawasaki family had, but now Yu Dayou understood it immediately. It was a conspiracy, a conspiracy specifically targeting the Ming Navy.
Using Kawasaki's family as bait, they attracted the Ming Navy to attack Japan, and then used a powerful fleet to hit the Ming Navy with a heavy blow. Why did they do this? Yu Dayou thought about it and realized that it was for the Ming port. Yes, they wanted to get involved in the Ming Dynasty! Thinking of this, Yu Dayou felt guilty and regretful.
Lord Jiang had always had doubts about attacking Japan. If he hadn't been persisting and lobbying, how could he agree to attack Japan?
Yu Dayou took a deep breath and immediately ordered: "Hurry! The gunships are surrounded and all are evacuated!"
"I can't retreat." Liang Jinghai ran to Yu Dayou, pointed to the other end of Wuzhou Island and said, "They came from both sides, so if they want to retreat, they will definitely not retreat."
When Yu Dayou heard this, he nodded immediately. A trace of determination flashed in his eyes and gritted his teeth and said, "Since you can't withdraw, then fight! Kill out a bloody road and go out. If they want to eat it, I will break their teeth first!"
Yu Dayou pulled out the Triumph Sword directly and pointed to the east and said, "Gun boat comes forward, plow the boat and then attack!" The Fujian Navy's gunship immediately began to turn around, but the speed of this rash turn could not be faster. In the distance, the gunship of the Spanish Invincible Fleet had already begun to fire.
Their fleet has a large number of gunships. No matter which type of warship it is, the ship is equipped with artillery. It can be said that every ship of the Invincible Fleet is a gunship. Moreover, the guns of the Invincible Fleet have a very long range. In the distance, the artillery of the Ming Navy could not hit them at all, but they could easily hit the ships of the Ming Navy.
Seeing Spain taking action, Kawasaki Haif didn't want to help Karef. But in the end he thought about it, if he didn't help them, no matter which side of them wins, he would end up suffering. At present, he can only believe in the Invincible Armada first, hoping that they can compensate for their huge losses this time.
On the coast, the Kawasaki family, which had been silent, began to fire artillery with all their might. At this moment, the Ming navy was in a dilemma of attacking front and back.
Soon the Ming Navy was sunk by more than 30 ships, and the navy lost nearly a thousand people. This was just the beginning. If it continued, the losses would definitely continue to expand.
Seeing this scene, Yu Dayou felt ruthless and immediately prepared to order to take the Ming Navy directly to the east. As long as he gets closer, his artillery can hit the opponent's warship, so he has the chance to fight out.
But at this moment, the invincible fleet, which was divided into two groups, arrived after leading the fleet on one side. The other end of the navy was also attacked, and there was no gunship on this end, so it could only be beaten and could not fight back.
Liang Jinghai grabbed Yu Dayou and said, "Zhifu, stop fighting. Go out to the east and I will bring you the people in the west."
Liang Jinghai and Yu Dayou were both appreciated and promoted by Jiang Xia, but they have always existed as his deputy. If it were to be placed on ordinary people, there would definitely be an imbalance in their hearts. But Liang Jinghai did not. His aspiration was to be Haiboping, not to be a prince. Besides, he and Yu Dayou were brothers and sisters. Neither of them would mind who was the master or the deputy.
Yu Dayou grabbed Liang Jinghai's arm and said, "No! Jinghai, you have to walk together, stay together!"
"Don't be fooled!" Liang Jinghai cursed angrily and said, "As the navy admiral, the highest general here, if you stay, who will command the navy? Can the navy go back? Now I stay, you go! Don't be too ruthless, think about Lord Jiang!"
"Jinghai, I'll stay, you go!" Yu Dayou gritted his teeth and said with guilt: "I was too impulsive. He led his troops to the expedition without investigating the situation in the sea. I deserve to die, so I'll stay!"
"Get out!" Liang Jinghai has always respected Yu Dayou. He never called him a name in front of others, but called him "Master". But now, he grabbed Yu Dayou's shoulder and said loudly: "Now it is not something you can keep as long as you want. You are no longer you. You are the life of the 100,000 naval army on your body. If you delay, we will be exhausted by each other. Have you ever thought about what kind of fate will the Ming Dynasty die if the 100,000 naval army dies here?"
Yu Dayou was stunned for a moment, and Liang Jinghai shouted: "Think about Lord Jiang, what would he do if he was here!"
Yu Dayou's eyes blinked and tears suddenly burst out. He walked along the way too smoothly, and he had never tried such a failure. But the price of trying it was too high.
Liang Jinghai looked at the guards beside him and ordered loudly: "Hurry! Take the lord away, he will make any mistakes, you will commit suicide and apologize!"
"Yes!" Several guards stepped forward to grab Yu Dayou, and ran down the stairs of the boat.
Liang Jinghai took a deep breath and ordered to the flag-speaking man beside him: "Order! The plowing boat faces west, the sails are all open, rush for me!"
