Han Shizu

Chapter 1271
The summer wind sweeps across Liaodong Bay, creating a scene of rough wind and rough waves. The turbulent waves reflect the sunlight, and the entire sea area appears sparkling.Under the blue sea and blue sky, the smoke of war is filling the air, destroying the harmonious environment.

Surrounding the Liaosu military port, a war of annihilating the trapped beasts is coming to an end. In fact, when the Liao army adopts a conservative defense and restrains the warships and water troops in the port, the fate is already doomed. If you don't use the law to defend yourself, you will lose your way ideologically.

The navy, especially the navy, is mainly used for offense!

Therefore, after Guo Tingwei figured out the movement of the Liao army, he was so happy. If he had worried about whether there was any conspiracy in the Liao army's response earlier, and had raised his vigilance a little bit, after confirming that the Liao army was so simple, So he was not polite, and he let go of his hands and feet.

In terms of specific operations, it is even more relaxed and easy to handle.Facing the Liao army navy that was bound by its own hands and feet and was trapped in the military port, the Donghai navy gave full play to the long-range offensive capabilities of the Han navy, even unscrupulous and hearty.

The innovation and progress of military technology often brings innovations in tactics and tactics, which is especially evident in the navy.In recent years, the Han Navy has grown stronger, not only because the ships are getting bigger and stronger, but also because of the rich means of long-range strikes.

In the past, bows and crossbows were the best means of long-range attack, and it was more normal to fight side by side and fight hand-to-hand.The current situation is that heavy weapons such as thunderbolt guns have been maturely applied to warships, especially with the further development of gunpowder technology, and the innovative use of "rockets" and "cannons" has greatly improved the offensive capabilities of the navy .

Today, the Han water army is fighting for the purpose of destroying enemy ships.

In contrast, the establishment of the Liao army's water army seemed primitive and backward. Building a batch of ships and training a group of sailors, and then there was nothing outstanding.

When the Han navy completely released the achievements of these years of progress, the effect was remarkable, and the scene presented was one-sided.

Inside Suzhou Port, there is already a scene full of fire. Thick smoke billows and surges upwards, as if to cover the bright and dazzling sunlight. The Liao army navy, which used boats as pawns to defend against the enemy, is already on the verge of destruction.

Their idea was to have a life-and-death fight with the Han army, but things backfired. They didn't contact you at all, and only used air strikes to push them into the abyss of defeat, and they didn't have the slightest means of counterattack.

The wood used by the warships of the Liao army seemed to be good fuel, fueling the fire wantonly, and the sea breeze came to join in the fun, and it was even more raging, and it swallowed not only the warships, but also the lives of the sailors of the Liao army.

Explosions one after another concealed the wailing towards death, the splattering fire oil, rockets piercing the air, and sparks bursting together constituted a gorgeous picture of war, but under this splendor, there was a strong cruelty.

Outside the port of Suzhou, there are huge East China Sea naval warships lined up, the most conspicuous of which are ten warships that look like giant beasts. Facing the already weakened Liao army navy, they are still killing them. The ammunition still flew through the air full of killing intent.

The main battleship of the Han Navy is named Wuya, which is taken from the name of an ancient ship. Although only ten ships have arrived this time, each one is a huge ship that can hold 2000 sailors and is equipped with ten sets of ballistas.

In this era, it is a shocking beast of war, with a huge mouth and fangs, it is ready to eat people.With every kerosene bomb fired, every string of rockets released, the waves under the hull trembled.However, no matter how the waves surge, it always stands calmly on the sea level, like experienced warriors, calmly.

Surrounding the ten five-tooth giant ships, there are also a large number of guards, walkers and other large and small ships around them. Although they are not as fierce as the main ships, they each have their own capabilities and can charge and fight. However, their tasks at this time, It also lies in defending the five teeth.

Being passively beaten and unable to fight back, the Liao army in Suzhou Port did not resist. They couldn't bear this kind of torture and massacre. Several enemy ships took the initiative to attack, trying to fight to the death, but they were all intercepted and suppressed. killed.

This naval battle was unfair from the very beginning, and the power disparity was too great.

On the commanding ship, Admiral Guo Tingwei stood on the towering watchtower, watching the fireworks feast not far away in Suzhou Port. The sky that was almost dyed red was really wonderful in his eyes.

Besides the generals of the navy, there were also several infantry generals watching the battle, and this time, there were also several infantry soldiers who were used to fight on land.

They witnessed this naval battle from the beginning to the end, and looked at the burning or silent enemy ships on the opposite side. They were all shocked. Shi Yande, the general of Hebei Province, finally couldn't help it: "It's so good to use crossbows and cannons on warships." Make it so easy for your navy to fight? The Liao army has no power to fight back!"

Hearing what he said, Guo Tingwei showed a smug smile on his face, and said modestly: "After many years of training, this is the first large-scale actual combat. It seems that the effect is good!"

Seeing Guo Tingwei's reserved performance, Shi Yande couldn't help but wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "No wonder His Majesty attaches so much importance to you. According to this style of play, there is no fear that the landing will be blocked. If this blow continues, the enemy ship will be destroyed. , the Liao army is already terrified!"

"This is also why the Liao army responded to the confusion and exposed its shortcomings, which gave our army a chance!" Guo Tingwei put away his complacency and said: "If they did not choose to hide in the harbor for defense, but attacked decisively and fought close to the side, even if they still Losing to the enemy can cause some casualties to our army.

After all, the five-tooth warship is too bulky, and its movement does not change. It loses the power of the ballista in close combat. Fighting with it is like gold and jade touching rubble!
Even, instead of confronting our army head-on, but avoiding it and harassing the Han sea area, it can cause a lot of restraint to our army.It's a pity that they are not familiar with water warfare, let alone my innovation in tactics, so they can just wait to die! "

Hearing Guo Tingwei's words, Shi Yande was silent for a while, and then complained: "You said this Khitan man, what is wrong with learning, to learn how to build a navy, it took so much manpower, and it was easily destroyed! Thousands of water If you are a pawn, it will be more effective if you are transferred to defend the city on land."

Guo Tingwei chuckled and said, "Weapon Workshop is now researching and building a tubular artillery. I heard that it is more powerful. If it can be used on warships, the combat effectiveness of our navy will be improved!"

Shi Yande shook his head, he didn't understand these things, seeing Guo Tingwei a little proud, he thought to himself, that is to say, galloping on the water, your boat can still sail to Liaoyang, to Linhuang Mansion?In the end, it was up to them to fight and attack.

However, it is too wasteful.Shi Yande could observe silently, and in less than half a day, he emptied the kerosene bombs and rockets on the four supply ships, which was too extravagant
"Marquis Hai'an, the navy of the Liao army has already perished, let's see what we do next!" Turning his head, Shi Yande said: "After staying on the water for the past few days, it is not at ease after all, we still have to go ashore, taking advantage of the fear of the enemy, Take advantage of the situation to attack, seize this Suzhou in one fell swoop, and gain a foothold, it is just a successful city!"

Of course Guo Tingwei could see that Shi Yande couldn't hold back, he didn't want to lag behind others, and wanted to make meritorious deeds.Without pointing him out, Guo Tingwei smiled and said, "The harbor is chaotic and the waterways are impassable, so it's inconvenient to advance rashly. Let's go and say hello to Suzhou City first!"

After saying that, Guo Tingwei immediately ordered to leave some ships to monitor the enemy's port, and the rest of the army marched northeast to Suzhou City.Suzhou City is located in the harbor, near the coast, and invested financial and material resources in the construction of the city.

However, in the face of the attack from the Han army at sea, it also seemed powerless and had no countermeasures. Compared with the navy army, it was more like a beauty who had been acupunctured and was insulted by others.
"These Khitan people are really ambitious. It's not good to name them. It's called Suzhou."
