Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 594 The rules are set by the king

"Order the Beiyang navy to attack!" Liu Hongjian issued a battle order.

Qi Yuanfu did not hesitate, and immediately gestured to the flag bearer on the flagship Shanhaiguan. The flag bearer waved two flags, one red and one black, at the same time, and the ships that received the order immediately attacked the target fleet in a wedge formation.

Boom—boom boom—

The leading heavy gun of the Shanhaiguan was the first to fire, and the Shanhaiguan was the flagship. Its leading heavy gun was defined by the specifications for artillery in later generations, up to [-] pounds.

With one shot, it happened to hit the stern of a target ship sailing towards the left front of the Beiyang Navy, causing the target ship to shake in the sea.

"Hit!" said the observer on the Shanhaiguan, who was in charge of the lookout, holding up the binoculars and looking down at the soldier who recorded the battle.

Inside the cabin, the chief mate Bu Jiageng patrolled around, ordering the gunners of each gun to calibrate the muzzles, those who carried the shells in the cabin, those who walked back and forth in charge of delivering orders, were busy but orderly.

On the bottom of Fuchuan, more than [-] soldiers in charge of the steam engine of Shanhaiguan calmly observed the operation status of their own steam engine, sometimes ordered their subordinates to add coal, and sometimes opened the valve to reduce the power, so that the ship could move forward steadily left and right.

"Turn the rudder!" At the moment when the leading gun fired the shell, Bu Jiageng, the first officer of the Shanhaiguan, jumped up and down like a monkey.

Using the huge recoil of the artillery, while reducing the speed of the ship, the warship can quickly turn the rudder, and the main artillery on the side of the ship can be aimed at the enemy fleet to launch a fierce attack.

Boom—boom——

Almost at the same time, more than a dozen main warships in the Beiyang Navy's array all fired, and then completed the rudder steering in a moment, and formed a wedge-shaped array horizontally.

The guard ship serving as a frigate followed the No. [-] and No. [-] Fu boats to turn the rudder one after another, while the lighter winter boat had already achieved a round of side bombardment.

The location of the scouting ship is rather embarrassing. After all, it is a drill, and the ships of both sides are in sight, so there is no need to go to a distance to scout.

The wave boat is shaped like a big bird, and it is also nicknamed the bird boat. The reason why it runs fast is entirely because of its small size and low load.

There are only a dozen people on and off the whole ship, and there are only one cannon on the front and back, and they are small-scale cannons. The warships used for scouting are just for running fast.

The reason why the artillery is assembled to the front and rear of the hull is that it can be fired while running.

Even if the bird boat is useless, and may even affect the steering of other ships, in order to simulate a real naval battle, it still has to be in the formation of the Beiyang Navy.

"My lord, the situation is not good. My younger brother is full of spirit. He was still unconvinced when he was defeated by the lower officials in the last exercise. Looking at the battle this time, he pulled out all the target ships." Qi Yuanfu reported.

Doesn't this Yuan Bi know that the admiral is here?What nonsense!Qi Yuanfu thought to himself, he must let his elder brother teach him a good lesson when he goes back.

"Oh? How many target ships are there in total? Mo Huan still has the energy to build so many target ships for the navy?" Liu Hongjian asked suspiciously.

"My lord, there are more than [-] ships in total. This target ship may look the same as our iron-clad ships, but there is actually nothing in the cabin except the steam unit.

When building it, you only need to use giant wood as the base and cover it with steel armor. It is easier to build than the wave boat. My brother specially asked for it from Mr. Mo of Bao Shipyard.

It's just that my lord was far away in Beihai at that time, so I didn't report it to you in time, I hope my lord will forgive me. "Qi Yuanfu explained.

In order to simulate naval battles to the greatest extent, the speed of the target ship was even comparable to that of the No. [-] main Fuchuan, and they were all moving targets.

Those who hit five shots in the target ship are regarded as sunk, those who hit three shots are regarded as losing attack power, and those who complete the encirclement represent victory.

After listening to Qi Yuanfu's explanation, Liu Hongjian couldn't help admiring the old general Qi Jiguang's whimsy.

This kind of combat method can not only minimize casualties, but also roughly calculate the hit rate of Beiyang Fleet's shells, evaluate the strength of the fleet, and even evaluate the true strength of each warship, which is really wonderful!
It's just that for the Beiyang Navy camp, the current situation is not good at all.

The speed of the target ship is not slow, even ten ships more than the Beiyang Navy, and the No. [-] main battleship has more artillery on the side, but after all, the hull is too heavy, the rudder turns slowly, and it hits a moving target, so the efficiency is still low. Not as tall as the twelve No. [-] Fuchuan.

In just a quarter of an hour, the target ships divided into two teams have already completed half of the encirclement...

Behind the target ship camp, Qi Yuanbi sat firmly in the cabin. In the narrow cabin, there were also sand tables filled with small flags of various colors. Red represented the navy, and blue represented his target ship team.

"Order the target ships No. 22 to No. [-] in the center to charge forward to attract the attack of the main naval ships!"

Qi Yuanbi looked at the sand table and directed the battle. He lost seventeen target ships in a quarter of an hour, but it didn't matter. According to the current situation, he was almost sure of victory.

If there is no accident, it only takes another quarter of an hour for his target ship to complete the encirclement of the navy.

Although it was a bit opportunistic to pull out more than a dozen target ships behind the back of his second brother Qi Yuanfu, but soldiers are not tired of cheating, Qi Yuanbi didn't care, he was not a stickler, and he must win this time.

But the reason why accidents are called accidents is because they always appear inadvertently.

Because Liu Hongjian is not a stickler!
"My lord, more than a dozen main warships of the Navy are also rushing towards us!" A watchman ran into the cabin from the deck in a panic.

"What?" Qi Yuanbi suddenly stood up from the stool when he heard the words, but because the cabin was small and short, he hit his head on the top of the cabin...

"Order Dingyuan and Zhenyuan to attack to the left! Tianjin and Datong will accompany you!" Liu Hongjian gave the order while listening to the lookout's report with a telescope in his hand.

"Weiyuan and Jingyuan are going to the right, and the cruisers Liaoyang and Fuzhou are accompanying them! Go forward at full speed!" Liu Hongjian said with a raised mouth.

Because the target ship had to use the sand table to command the battle in order to avoid the artillery fire, the battle situation in the sand table would always be delayed due to the time limit, but Liu Hongjian did not use it, because the target ship had no attack capability, and he could command from the deck without any restraint.

This is called reasonable utilization rules!
"My lord, according to the rules, we cannot directly ram the target ship." Qi Yuanfu whispered from the side.

"According to the rules, the third child can't bring more than a dozen target ships! Since I am the admiral of the navy, I have the right to change the rules. Hurry up, don't be merciful!" Liu Hongjian said with a glare at Qi Yuanfu.

I thought that the third child had a bad temper, so I just reprimanded him a few words, and then I started to take revenge.

Want to win this king?Hehe, look at me hitting you!
The greatest ability of the superior is to make rules and change the rules, but you, the third child, can only obey.

With more than a dozen main battleships rampaging left and right, there was almost no suspense in the battle. 22 target ships were knocked upside down, and 31 target ships were either sunk or seriously injured.

In addition, the target ship did not complete the encirclement at all, and the main battleship broke through in front of it, so it was a loser.

Your Excellency is playing tricks, why don't you play cards according to common sense?
Qi Laosan almost cried to death. It seems that at least a dozen target ships will be lost in this exercise, and almost all of them will be directly damaged.

As for the Beiyang Navy, Liu Hongjian had already counted the battle results, and he couldn't help being a little surprised to see that the No. [-] lucky ship was ranked first in the record.

"Call the captain of the Liaoyang," Liu Hongjian ordered.

Fuchuan No. 28 lacked [-] cannons compared to Fuchuan No. [-]. Liaoyang still ranked first with [-] hits, which shows the capability of the captain of Liaoyang.

After a short tilt, the Liaoyang ship approached the Shanhaiguan, a pair of supports protruded from its hull, and a tall, ugly man walked out of the Liaoyang ship.

"You are the captain of the Liaoyang ship? What's your name?" Liu Hongjian frowned. This guy really looks too good for the audience.

"Return to Admiral, the younger one is called Cui Geng."
