1932: Destroyed
There were several warships of the Tiger Dynasty left alone on the sea, surrounded by the Dachu combat formation in a semi-arc shape.
"Call them and let them surrender." Qin Feng looked at the scarred warships across the opposite side. Even if they were enemies, he admired these guys from the West in his heart. "Tell them that the war has ended for them, and there is no need to make meaningless struggles. If we surrender, we will ensure their lives."
The huge acoustic speaker on the Dachu immediately began to shout to the other party in the common terms of the Tiger Dynasty.
Suddenly hearing the familiar language from the other ship, Drop was startled, then stunned, and finally shook his head and smiled bitterly: "There are people who know our language on their warships, but we know nothing about them. We just know that they are rich and have huge wealth. But we never thought about how they got the huge wealth they have."
He sighed: "If we had known that the other party was so powerful, how could we come rashly? We were afraid that we would have to dig deep trenches, build high walls, and worry that the other party would come to fight day and night. That Qin Li was a disaster, and our Tiger Dynasty was destroyed in his hands."
The other party's loudspeaker was shouting repeatedly, but a ruthless look flashed across Drop's face. He turned to look at the officers beside him and shouted: "Everyone, I, Drop, have always been forced to surrender for all my life. I have never raised my hand or bent my knees to others. If you want to surrender, you can kill me first and take my head. I will never blame you. You have been fighting with me until now, and you have been so kind and righteous. Drop is already grateful."
"I wish to follow the Grand Duke and fight to the end!" On the warship, everyone raised the weapons in their hands and roared loudly. The soldiers on the other warships also shouted at the same time.
"Okay, I am worthy of being a hero who has been fighting for many years with Your Majesty, and I am worthy of being a personal guard selected by Your Majesty. Let us go through the last journey of our life together." Drop's eyes flashed with tears, and he raised his sword and pointed straight ahead, "Go forward, move forward!"
Several warships, led by Drop, plucked up their sails and rushed towards the Ming army warship not far away.
Hearing the cry of grief and anger on the other side's ship, Qin Feng knew that persuading surrender was just his wishful thinking. He shook his head and said to Zhou Li: "Prepare for battle. They ask for Ren and get Ren, and send them the last journey."
"Your Majesty, these people are all Dance's personal guards, and they cannot surrender." Zhou Li advised: "Although these people are brave, they are a great enemy to us. The more fierce the enemy is, the more harmful it will be to us. Judging from the appearance of these people, those landing people are afraid that they are not easy to compare with."
Qin Feng nodded, this is the reason for his honey, my arsenic.
He looked at the sea again. Even though he was at the end of the road, the warships that charged at the charge still maintained a complete attack formation. Zhou Li's low orders came from his ears. Qin Feng shook his head and walked into the cabin. Many years ago, he liked to see the enemy's final shape, but now, he has no idea at all.
He Rentu, who had been following him, was also deeply moved: "In the future, we must go to that continent to see. If a person who can raise such a hero will definitely not be worse than our continent."
"Of course, one place is a place of water and soil to breed the other people. The world is so great, with heroes coming out, and there are heroes there, but not only us. If Mr. He wants to go to that continent to see, there will be a chance soon. If we defeat the Tiger Dynasty, their rule will soon collapse and will inevitably fall into internal struggle. If Mr. He goes to see it at that time, he will surely see more scenery." Qin Feng smiled.
"Your Majesty is right, heroes are born in troubled times!" He Rentu walked into the cabin with a smile with Qin Feng. The moment they closed the cabin door, the sound of artillery from the Dachu combat formation outside immediately rang out.
Drop is still moving forward.
The mast was broken, the sails overturned, and it was immediately ignited. The entire ship ignited a fire. He stood straight at the bow of the ship, pointing the sword in his hand to the front. Even though the fire swallowed his body, it still remained motionless.
The sound of cannons kept ringing, the rudder was broken, the hull lost control, and it suddenly hit the crossover, providing a larger attack surface for the artillery fire on the opposite side.
With the continuous artillery fire, the warship finally began to sink continuously, but until the end, Drop still stood on the bow of the ship like a statue.
In this situation, even a person like Zhou Li, who is as sarcastic as a person, is moved.
"Salute!" he shouted sternly.
All the crew members and marines of the Dachu combat formation stood solemnly at the bow and sent solemn military salutes to the enemies of the Tiger Dynasty ships that finally sank into the sea.
No matter when, such an enemy is worthy of respect for everyone.
On land, Dancy witnessed the final feat of his loyal subordinate Drop, and then assembled his army and set out inland.
"From now on, kill all the people you see, burn all the houses you see, and grab all the things we can use." After wiped away the tears on his face, Danxi gritted his teeth and gave the order.
In the sky, Han Dang's airship unit was left with only two still hovering. By now, he had basically estimated that the number of troops landed by the Tiger Dynasty should be between 20,000 and 30,000.
After obtaining roughly accurate numbers, an airship immediately flew towards Chen Ci's garrison, while Han Dang turned his body and flew towards the direction where the Da Chu was located.
When Han Dang parked his airship on the top deck of the Dachu and rushed to the conference room of the Dachu, the room was already full of generals.
Ning Zeyuan lowered his head and was apologizing to Emperor Qin Feng.
"Your Majesty, I made a major mistake in my tactics. This time, both combat formations were damaged to varying degrees, and at the same time, Dance's army landed. I have an unshirkable responsibility. Please punish your crime!"
Qin Feng shook his head: "The tactical formulation is indeed omission, but I have agreed to this battle plan carefully. If I want to hold it accountable, I will be the first one."
"Your Majesty does not understand naval warfare, this is my responsibility." Ning Zeyuan said: "I am willing to bear this responsibility. No matter what punishment, I am willing to accept it."
"No tactics can be perfect. We still don't have a deep understanding of the Tiger Dynasty. Moreover, we are too arrogant." Qin Feng greeted Ning Zeyuan and sat down, looking at everyone in the room and said: "Today everyone has also seen that our warships are advanced than the enemy, and our artillery fire is even more comparable to those of the enemy, but we still have not achieved a complete victory. In a certain aspect, we even failed because the enemy completed the landing. This tells us a truth that at any time, advanced weapons and equipment are only an important factor in winning the war, not a decisive factor. Today's battle has sounded the alarm for us. If the Tiger Dynasty is like this, then the State of Qi in the future will also be like this."
Everyone nodded together. In this battle, everyone had seen how the navy of the old maritime power fought. The speed of response and the resolute attitude really made them feel astonished.
"The war with Qi is more of a decisive battle on land, and it is not very useful for you. So at that time, you should be on the way overseas. Maybe you will encounter enemies that are stronger than today. You must know that in this war, we are the home court, the enemy is the guest army, we are in a good place, and people are the advantage. If you go abroad, then these will be the enemy."
This is the first time that Qin Feng revealed his ambitions for the sea in front of many naval generals, and everyone was naturally excited. Qi State would not have a navy at all. In the future, Ming Qi will compete for hegemony and they will become a transport brigade. This is naturally unacceptable for the arrogant navy. Now His Majesty the Emperor has drawn another route for them, so how can they not be happy?
"How many soldiers are there in the Taiping combat formation, and all the navy and marines in the Dachu combat formation gathered together?" Qin Feng turned his head and looked at Ning Zeyuan.
"Your Majesty, there are 5,000 people in total." Ning Ze walked afar.
"Very good. I will lead these 5,000 people to land, cooperate with Chen Ci to fight, and wipe out the remaining Danxi troops on the island of Manila." Qin Feng said
Everyone was shocked.
"Your Majesty." Guan Zhen, the commander of the navy and marines, stood up and said, "Why use a ox knife to kill the chicken? It's enough for a small Danxi to go."
Qin Feng looked at Guan Zhen with a smile. This was one of the first generals to walk out of him. "You are not tall and have a big tone. Danxi has been fighting all his life, and it is not easy to match. Even I have to be careful. You dare to speak so loudly."
"Your Majesty, because of this, the General of the Mo can't let His Majesty take risks." As Qin Feng's direct subordinate, Guan Zhen did not hide his words, "If we had 350,000 troops at this time, even the General of the Majesty would not stop him wherever His Majesty was going, but now there are only 5,000 naval marines, the General of the Mo can't think so. As Your Majesty said, the enemy on the opposite side is not easy to match."
Qin Feng sneered: "How many of us were there back then?"
"This is the same as that, and your Majesty is in the Ming Dynasty...
"Enough." Qin Feng interrupted Guan Zhen's words decisively, "I have decided, you don't have to say much. Guan Zhen, after going down, immediately assemble the navy and marines, Ning Zeyuan, prepare the ship, we are going to land."
Seeing Qin Feng's determination, everyone fell silent. These people were all weapons, and it was impossible to cry, make a fuss and hang themselves like those literati. Moreover, a brave emperor was exactly what they hoped for.
