"Your Highness, Wesley must be able to bear it now."

On the Jinghai flagship, Zhao Xu and Zhou Yi were observing the coalition fortifications on the north side.

According to the plan, he and Zhou Yi were responsible for the artillery bombardment on the north side, and Gong Ying led the remaining half of the warships on the south side.

At this moment, on Zhao Xu's telescope, the coalition fortifications on the north side fell into a sea of ​​fire.

This is the result of the continuous explosion of more than 2,000 shells.

"Of course, it's hard to say whether they can survive the shelling." Zhao Xu put away his telescope and hummed softly.

For three hundred years, the Western natives have relied on their strong ships and cannons to be domineering in the world, and they will hit whoever they want.

Not only did they occupy one piece of land after another, they occupied it as a colony, but they also created one massacre after another.

In their eyes, except for the Western natives, other indigenous people are inferior humans.

But now the feng shui has changed. Under his leadership, Dasong has avoided the tragic suffering of the Central Plains dynasty in contemporary history.

Although it is still impossible to surpass the Western Land in terms of industrial scale, it is steadily suppressing them in terms of advancedness.

The advancement of industry has allowed them to surpass the Western natives in artillery artillery.

As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will be interspersed with tactics, and if you are rich, you will be covered with artillery fire.

For him, it would be a worthwhile deal if ten shells could prevent the death of a Da Song soldier.

Therefore, in this war against the Western natives, his tactical purpose is to give full play to the advantages of muskets and cannons without having to fill in the lives of people.

"He can survive the first round, but he can't survive the second round and the third round." Zhou Yi smiled with evil smile when he heard this.

They carried enough ammunition, and even the fortifications of the Western-Turkish coalition forces were enough.

"Boom boom boom..." As he spoke, the fleet launched a second round of artillery bombardment, and the coast was covered with fire again.

Next is the third round, the fourth round...

While launching artillery on the north side, the fleet on the south side also began to launch artillery on the south side.

Under Gong Ying's order, the coalition fortifications on the shore were also covered with dense shells and exploded into hornet's nests.

at the same time.

Compared with the relaxation and freedom of Zhao Xu and others, Western Tu officers such as Wesley were as bitter as Coptis chinensis.

The Western Tu soldiers in the coastal fortifications suffered heavy casualties under rounds of artillery bombardment. The bodies were lifted out of the trench, and the casualties instantly reached 40%.

Under such dense artillery fire, the Western Turkish soldiers in the trenches along the coast could not bear it at all.

The officer had to temporarily withdraw the soldiers from the fortifications to the inside.

"General, five thousand of us were killed, eight thousand were injured, and some soldiers could not even find their bones."

"Admiral, we have twelve field rifled guns destroyed, and nineteen howitzers destroyed, losing 30%."

“…”

The shelling continued, and the Western Turkish officers kept sending bad news, making Wesley want to kill people.

When the Dasong fleet approached, he realized the danger and hurriedly evacuated the command post with the officers.

Even so, some of the officers in the command post died in shelling.

If an officer hadn't pounced on him, he would have died at this moment.

"Go and tell Mafuer that his damn navy will go out to fight immediately. If the fortifications on both sides of the strait cannot be kept, can they defend the strait?" Wesley was furious.

If the Dasong fleet is not resolved, their right wing will be dangerous.

The Dasong fleet cleared their coastal fortifications. If he were a general of the Dasong army, he would definitely take the opportunity to seize the coastal fortifications on the right wing.

In this way, their flanks will be completely exposed and the fortifications will be meaningless.

"But..." The officer beside Wesley hesitated.

At present, there are only eighty sailing warships and twenty-two steamships left in the coalition fleet.

Moreover, Mafuer clearly stated that a Dasong Sail warship was enough to deal with six Western-Turkey Alliance warships.

This means that if the coalition navy goes to war, it will be annihilated.

"No, we must not lose Maliojia like this, nor can we lose so easily." Wesley immediately yelled when he knew what the officer wanted to say.

"But, General, if the navy is over, we really can't go back." The officer still did not obey Wesley's orders and continued to argue.

The other officers also looked at Wesley with a worried look.

For countries such as Ruyi Luo Kingdom and Oli Kingdom that have no interests in the East.

Their attitude towards this war is naturally different.

Of course they would be happy to take advantage of Britain and Frank.

But they were unwilling to let them die.

When Wesley heard this, he became even more angry, but when he wanted to curse, he suddenly couldn't say a word.

Yes, the Navy is their last life-saving straw.

If they cannot defend Maluojia, they will have to rely on the navy to withdraw them back to India.

Therefore, it is too crazy to put the navy into a war that will definitely lose.

Calm down, he gave up on the idea of ​​letting the navy attack.
