"Congratulations, general, congratulations, general."

Seeing the blazing fire below and everyone firing their cannons desperately, the little military division came over happily.

"There is a saying in the book of war: war pays attention to the right time, place and people, and among the three, the harmony of people is the most important. From ancient to modern times, countless victories have thoroughly proved this point, and talents are the key to determining the outcome of a war."

"Now my left-wing soldiers are all refreshed under the encouragement of the general. Everyone is fighting bravely to kill the enemy. They are not afraid of hard work and ignore fatigue. Invisibly, they have made a good start for the victory of this war."

"As the saying goes, a good start is half the victory. The subordinates feel that the general can return to the camp and write the victory report in advance."

Haha.

Fang Yuanwu felt relieved when he heard it, and kept stroking the beard that he grew on purpose.

"War is not a child's play. As a general, remember to keep a low profile and be cautious in your words and deeds. This battle has just begun, and drawing conclusions now will inevitably lead to doubts and eyebrows from others."

After finishing speaking, he took a deep look at the middle road, which is the frontal defense line of Dinghai Wharf.

The little military division understood in seconds.

In the same legion, there is also competitive pressure among the generals.

Whoever leads the soldiers well, as long as he makes a move, he will beat the enemy to flee;
Whoever leads the soldiers is good, but if they encounter the enemy, they will be defeated before they fight.

Not only the supervising army sent by the Ministry of War, but other generals of the same legion will also see it.

In the end, whoever is good and who is incompetent, everyone has a reputation in their hearts.

Especially Fang Yuanwu, the left-wing general, was actually snatched from Lin Hanmo.

The generals who had a close relationship with Lin Hanmo and the Marquis behind him were naturally unhappy and wanted to compete with him and even trip him up.

For example, Dai Puyu in the central defense.

"General, the left-wing highland is our territory, so it doesn't matter what you say. And as long as we do our job well. As for the Japanese pirates coming ashore, whether General Dai's defense in the middle can withstand it is up to him thing."

"Yes." Fang Yuanwu nodded.

"Last year's Dinghai Wharf battle, all the generals carefully studied the process. Especially the left-wing highland where we are now, the geographical location and role are extremely important. As long as the catapult swarm is activated, the Japanese pirates can hardly hold their heads up."

Speaking of this, Fang Yuanwu felt a little emotional.

"Because of that battle, Zhang Yang, a little broken deputy county captain, stole the limelight. After the war, he was even named and praised by Guan Shangshu of the Ministry of War, saying that his future is limitless."

hum.

The little military division smiled disdainfully.

"Zhang Yang? It's just bad luck."

He comforted: "General, it's just a local garrison. No matter how promising Zhang Yang is, he will be promoted to a county lieutenant at most, which is far away from you."

"That's right." Fang Yuanwu nodded in agreement and proudly.

I am different.

Born in Star Ji City, he has a solid background.

At a young age, he was already one of the eight generals of the Central Army Corps.

This is almost a high position that Zhang Yang will struggle to achieve in his entire life.

As long as the current battle is fought well, then he will completely replace Lin Hanmo in the future and secure his seat in the army.

At that time, Dai Puyu in the middle lane, no matter how distasteful he was, he could only bear it silently in the end.

And maybe the Japanese pirates landed, Dai Puyu couldn't handle it, and finally had to go to the left wing to ask him for help.

"Good advice, general." The little military adviser nodded flatteringly.

"The Sishan Islands are surrounded by the barriers of the East China Sea. General Lu is ruthless. It can be said that he will fight in the direction of Mie Dao. Ishikawa Taki has nowhere to go. If he wants to survive, he can only put his hope here in Huayang County. .”

"So as long as they go ashore, the Japanese pirates' offensive will definitely be crazy."

"Lin Hanmo lost his army when he met the Japanese pirates at the beginning of last year. His fight was worse than Zhang Yang's, which made everyone in the army lose face. Although Dai Puyu's broken jade speaks well, the subordinates feel that his ability to lead the army is afraid. He is no better than Lin Hanmo, who is also a cousin, and sooner or later he will beg the general in a low voice."

Haha.

Fang Yuanwu laughed heartily.

----

At sea, Kawashima Fleet.

Kawashima Taro stared at the flying stones and arrows that filled the sky in front of him.

Especially seeing that most of the attacks fell into the sea, and didn't even touch the edge of the front battleship.

He couldn't help but look weird.

"General," the military adviser was also at a loss, "What's the matter with Yunchui?"

Even before their warships came into range, they desperately launched an attack on the shore.

Looking at the frequency and density of the attacks, those who didn't know thought that the two sides had already come into close contact, and it was time to die or stand.

Could it be that there are too many stone bombs, kerosene and crossbow arrows in the Central Army's reserves?

Suddenly, Kawashima's eyes shone brightly, and he punched the side of the ship in front of him hard.

"The general ordered that all warships slow down and repair the ships at the same time. The general wants to see how many artillery, fire and crossbow bolts Fang Yuanwu has in reserve."

"Yes!" The orderly ran away in a hurry.

"General," the little military adviser hesitated, "It is a good thing to consume the enemy's supplies, but General Ishikawa's order is to let us attack with all our strength and land as soon as possible..."

Kawashima continued to give orders as if he had never heard of it.

"If the fire caused by the enemy's attack doesn't endanger the foundation of the battleship, then don't worry about it. At the same time, each ship moves all the garbage in the bilge to the deck. Let's set the fire ourselves. The thicker the smoke, the better. Understand?"

"This..." Everyone including the messenger looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Don't hurry up and give orders?" Chuan Dao turned his head and looked coldly at the other messenger, "I want the general to say it again!"

"The subordinate understands." Xiaobing was startled, wiped his sweat and ran away.

Soon, Kawashima's weird orders spread throughout the fleet.

No matter what the generals in charge of the ship thought, after a while, thick black smoke rose from all the ships.

When the southeast wind blew at the right time, they flew towards the shore like covering the sky and covering the sun.

There was a burst of cheers from the left-wing high ground.

Report!
A soldier grinned and ran towards the recorder like an arrow.

"The NO.30 long-range suppression rock-throwing unit was the first to injure the enemy's Otsuka battalion class. Please record!"

The man didn't finish speaking.

Report!
Another scream of excitement.

Another soldier with a smile on his face ran over from nowhere.

"Recorder, my No. [-] long-range rock-throwing crew was the first to damage the enemy's Bengang battle camp. Thick black smoke has already risen from the enemy ship, and it is estimated that it will sink soon."

"Nonsense," the first soldier was dizzy with anger, turned his head and waved his hand, "I, No. 30, was the first crew to damage the enemy ship. If you don't believe me, take a look at the Otsuka."

The recorders subconsciously looked towards the sea.

However, all the catapults and broken crossbows on the left high ground were attacking.

The eastern sky was filled with all kinds of gorgeous flames, and black smoke rose everywhere from the sea.

For a while, several people couldn't find where the Otsuka was.

Haha.

Number [-] scoffed.

"You and he drove a long-range suppression trebuchet, and I drove a long-range attack trebuchet. Can you damage enemy ships faster than me?"

NO.30 is not to be outdone.

"The attack aircraft is amazing, so it can shoot farther and shoot faster. But the machine is just a machine. We brothers practice hard every day to start the machine, reload fast, aim fast, and smash the pin fast. No.1 should be us of."

"Fuck you..."

……

The two sides broke their mouths, and the public said that the public was right and the woman was saying that the woman was right, and they refused to give in to each other. Hearing the veins twitching in the forehead of several recorders, they were at a loss for a while. (end of this chapter)
