Chapter 1217: Today, the battle is full of clouds in the sky, human blood sacrifices the flag, giant ships attack

In history, it was precisely because of the opposition of these people that the actions of fighting back to the north and regaining their homeland were never just shouting, and there were not many times when they were truly implemented in action.

But Shen Mo was paying great attention to these businessmen from beginning to end.

Shen Mo constantly supported these people, increased their financial resources and strength, and at the same time deliberately divided them into several pieces to avoid forming a single family and forming a trend of not losing their tails, thereby exerting an adverse impact on his own policies.

Now, with Shen Mo's long planning, these four major consortiums have finally gradually taken shape in his hands. The huge power contained in these capitals and their desire for wealth have also become the surging power on Shen Mo's chariot!

Think about it, if Shen Mo wins every battle, it will bring huge benefits to the Consortium Sect. Then these merchants will immediately turn into war madmen, screaming and rushing Shen Mo to conquer pieces of land!

Shen Mo's foresight can be seen from this. Because he began to make arrangements for this matter before he arrived in Tongzhou.

Now this war has finally come to his time to release this greedy financial beast out of the cage!

Now Zhang Yiru and Yang Yanbin, both of them control the Tongzhou economy and the Tongzhou Industrial Park. Therefore, they also vaguely show their leadership temperament among these four major consortiums.

So now, their fathers Zhang Jiutai and Yang Liufu, when they saw the young couple's energetic appearance, they felt that their children had become so heroic!

After Yang Liufu got off the boat, the big salt merchant in Yangzhou walked while looking at the slim back of Miss Zhang Yiru, but his heart was moved secretly!

Then, he saw him pulling the sleeve of his son Yang Yanbin and whispering to him: "You Zhang Shimei, now she is like a fairy girl!"

"You two are from Yangzhou, and you are close to the water in Tongzhou. Why don't you..."

"Oh! My living dad!"

Before Yang Liufu could finish his words, Yang Yanbin hurriedly reached out to cover his father's mouth!

This kid is not polite now, and at this moment, he is sweating on his forehead!

"If you don't care about anything, just pick it up and say it!" Yang Yanbin looked at the people around him nervously and found that no one paid attention to this place. Then he turned his face and put his mouth to his father's ear and said:

"When the commander was fine, he liked to go to Zhang Shimei's Canglang Garden to have tea... You are so lying around with such a big mouth, do you want your son's life?"

"ah?"

After hearing this, Yang Liufu was shocked all over his body!

"I'll go! Is there anything else?" Mr. Yang Liufu said in fear.

"You have to keep this secret tightly!" Yang Yanbin said to his father slowly from his teeth, word by word: "Be careful that disaster comes from the mouth!"

"I know!" This time, Yang Liufu, who was frightened, nodded without hesitation.

"Oh! I would have had a few more daughters if I had known..." Yang Liufu looked at the old man Zhang Jiutai in front of him with envy, and shook his head with regret.

On the other hand, with Shen Mo's active preparation, the entire Danluo Island had begun to enter a state of combat readiness.

The army is now ready for battle, waiting for the Goryeo Navy to send troops to the day when the war begins.

...

November 16th at 4 a.m.

The fully rested naval soldiers began to go up to the deck and prepared for the battle.

Today, when sunrise is the time when the Goryeo Navy came to the Danluo Island waters after a night of wind and waves. Shen Mo's navy is waiting for it here and is ready to strike them head-on.

The reason why Shen Mo chose to fight in the waters near Danluo Island instead of blocking directly to the door of the Goryeo Navy was to allow his soldiers to have sufficient rest and at the same time he was tired of the Goryeo Navy.

In addition, there are many advantages to fighting at your doorstep.

For example, within such a long distance, once the Goryeo Navy loses, they will be chased by Shen Mo all the way back, causing greater losses.

Shen Mo is now holding a giant ship, and he has no doubt about winning this naval battle.

However, if the 176 Korean warships were defeated and fled in all directions, it would be a very troublesome thing to catch them all in one go.

At this time, the navy soldiers had already begun to organize sail rigging on the side of the ship, and took off the cannon's cannon's cannon coat and cleaned up the cannon. They were skillful and agile in their movements and made all preparations.

When the sky turned white and it was almost dawn, Shen Mo saw five red signal flares fired on the sea in the distance!

"All the enemy troops arrived here, 25 nautical miles away." Shi Baoying on the deck was wearing a handsome military uniform. He held his flying fish knife in his hand and reported to Shen Mo: "Please give an order!"

"Sacrifice flag to go on the battle!"

On the deck of the naval flagship "Seven Seas Feiyun", Shen Mo steadily issued an order to Shi Baoying.

Immediately, more than 30 Goryeo spys were taken to the bow of the ship and chopped their heads with a knife on the bow.

While the head fell into the waves, a piece of blood burst out from the cavity, a white mist rose in the cold winter air!

After celebrating the military flag with human heads, Shen Mo's fleet set out immediately!

...

This time, the naval dispatch, transport ships, troop transport ships and firepower ships were all left on Danluo Island. There were only six giant warships following Shen Mo's flagship.

A war between seven warships and 176 Koryo Navy ships is about to begin!

In addition to the huge ship size and extremely high sideways, Shen Mo's seven warships carried extremely powerful firepower on the ships.

There are 36 32-pound cannons and 72 24-pound cannons. Now, on the seven battleships in the fleet, the number of artillery carried is 108.

The newly built giant ship uses steel keels and reinforces them in important parts, so that the powerful 32-pound cannon is installed on the deck.

On these giant ships of Shen Mo, the hull on the waterline is divided into three layers.

108 cannons are arranged layer by layer on the three-layer deck. If all the muzzles are pushed out, these giant ships are like a hedgehog covered with cannons!

Tongzhou Textile Factory weaves a sturdy and light canvas. After installing it on Chinese hard sails, these sails also have the characteristics of "wind from all sides" of Chinese hard sails, which can exquisitely control the direction of the ship. At the same time, it also has the advantage of large area of ​​European sails, which can effectively utilize wind power.

Therefore, these warships did not have paddle cabins, and they did not need to rely on slurry to increase speed and adjust direction.
