Chapter Eight hundred and forty-eight: Breaking the halberd and sinking into the sand

Cheungshumaru Shenhai, and the ship's official Shui Po Sechang died.

The Nagayoshimaru sank, and the ship's officer Shimazuo fell into the water and died.

The entire Japanese fleet was almost wiped out, and the Langsan gunboats began to be organized into small groups and cruised nearby. Any Japanese ships that were left alone would immediately attack.

There are more and more bad news coming from nearby waters. The remaining Japanese ships no longer dare to leave the port because they are not protected by frigates. Once they go to sea, they will be followed by the guards of Lang Son warships and finally attack like wolves.

Chongming Island has no danger to guard, and Changxing Island has no danger to guard. This is not Quanzhou or Ningbo. In a sense, when they chose Chongming, it already means today's annihilation.

A lot of Japanese ships were also seized. The navy's officers and soldiers became familiar with these Japanese ships very quickly. The reason is very simple, because most of the Japanese ships were imitated by Lang Son. As latecomers, the Japanese were naturally better at learning advanced experiences. They built cars behind closed doors and were afraid that they would not reach the height of Lang Son ships in their lifetime. Therefore, the structure of the Japanese ships was no different from that of Lang Son.

There were only more than 2,000 Japanese troops entrenched on Changxing Island. After the fleet was wiped out, the Lang Son army immediately began to land and launched an attack. Changxing Island was not big and had no support. The Lang Son army immediately occupied the port and began to sweep it.

There are a large amount of food and gunpowder reserves here, so it is cheaper for Lang San Army.

Hao Fenglou has landed on Changxing Island and transformed it into a base camp. Countless ships have also begun to dock and replenish supplies. The fleet has begun to be divided into two shifts and takes turns to go out to the sea. Attack all ships that dare to appear on the sea.

In fact, the Japanese suffered not much loss, 100,000 Japanese troops. The casualties in this naval battle were only 5,000; while in the Lang Son Army, a gunboat blindly got rid of the array because of being too confident, and was finally hit by artillery set up at Chongming Port. The ship sank, and many crew members were rescued one after another. In addition, two ships collided, killing more than 70 people.

In any case, this naval battle was a complete victory. And it was a particularly fatal blow to the Japanese.

They're finished.

Junichi Shimazu on Chongming Island has a deep understanding of this.

Because Chongming Island has many troops and horses. The place is only the size of a palm and there is not enough reserves. Almost all the supplies are transported by the mainland or Changxing Island. Now the navy has been destroyed. This means that from now on, their transportation lines with the outside world have been cut off. Even if there are still some ships on Chongming Island, once they leave the port, not to mention transporting grain, it is God's blessing to be able to escape unstoppable.

The supply on Chongming Island will only last for ten days at most. What will happen after ten days?

The power of the Ming Navy is almost negligible. Even if there is one, most of them are in Ningbo and Quanzhou. When they come to help, they are afraid that the daylily will be cold. There are some ships in Songjiang, but wanting to compete with the Lang Son fleet is almost equivalent to suicide.

Being controlled by sea power means cutting off supplies. Even if there are millions of Japanese soldiers on the island, they are humans and they have to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. Do they rely on this palm-sized place to be self-sufficient? Even if there is enough arable land here and you want to cultivate it, it will be the next year.

It's over.

In the nearby waters, the Langsan gunboats were raiding everywhere, elusive and large-scale fleet transport was impossible. They could only use some clutches to venture out. If they could escape by chance, they would only send a letter. Could it be that they could transport several ships of food?

The Lang Son fleet obviously had already seen this clearly. The way they took was to harass them in various ways, but did not send troops to attack the shore.

In the big tent, Junichi Shimazu looked at the daimyo with his face as if he was dead. These daimyos responded to the call and hurriedly led their troops to join the war. For them, this was not only a kind of honor, but also an opportunity to make profits. Now, everything is in a mirror.

Many people were angry.

Everyone started to curse the Langshan Army. Some people asked for a breakthrough, but they just broke through. It was ridiculous. This place was not land and there were no bridges. It required ships to break through. Now the Japanese army's ships are not enough to transport thousands of people to sea. Even if they can transport them, once they are intercepted by the Langshan Navy like hungry wolves, all of them will be buried in the belly of fish.

Some people also wish that the Lang San army would land immediately to fight these insidious and cunning Lang San people. This is obviously a delusion, because according to the IQ tests in later generations, although the IQ of the Japanese is quite good, the average IQ of the Han people is obviously not too low. People would rather tease you there than fight to the death.

Finally, someone found the key to the problem. Someone pulled out the Japanese sword on his waist and said angrily: "The wise man mistaken me. If it weren't for them, how could we be trapped in an isolated island? Could it be that the 100,000 elite troops in the imperial country be destroyed?"

In fact, many people want to say that the key here lies in His Highness Yongjian’s surrender to the Ming people. If it weren’t for this, how could such a thing happen?

But everyone dared not blame His Highness the Prince, and in the end they could only put all the blame on the Ming people.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Finally, Junichi Shimazu's dark face finally showed a bit of ferociousness, and he said, "At this point, we are all criminals of the imperial state. Since the great power has been returned, the imperial state has been determined to innovate and has never had such a defeat. After today, the imperial state reform has been destroyed!"

When they said this, the Japanese in the tent were filled with some sadness.

This is true. Since the return of the major policies, everyone has worked hard for so many years as if they had taken stimulants. After finally getting a little better, seeing that the business is expected to be prosperous, countless people's long-cherished wishes are coming true. It happened that the civil turmoil in the Central Plains was the best time to get the Japanese people from the fire. I thought that this time I would assist the Ming Dynasty to suppress the thieves and prosper the imperial career, but I knew that this battle was defeated, like a basin of ice water that completely awakened everyone.

The most ridiculous thing is that if you fight quickly, you will be defeated. But the problem is that everyone has not even touched the enemy's side now, and in one go, the Japanese army has fallen into the most dangerous situation. This... is so fucking unfair.
