Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 84 Combined Fleet
In Goryeo, Prince Li Mo came to the residence of King Injo of Goryeo with a letter from Chu Yun.

"Father, Chu Yun, the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town in the Ming Dynasty, sent someone to invite us to attack the Feiqian Fan in Dongying. I am here to ask my father to send a fleet to support Chu Yun, in order to avenge my revenge!" The young and energetic prince Li Mu said.

"Hmm..." King Koryo read Chu Yun's letter carefully, "Thirty years ago, the Japanese occupied our land. If our army can set foot on the Japanese territory this time, it will be regarded as reciprocity."

"Father, what are we waiting for? Follow Daming's fleet to attack Dongpu, and we will surely win!" Li Mo said excitedly.

"You are still young, and the Tokugawa shogunate is not easy to mess with. When we joined forces with the Ming Dynasty to fight on the mainland, we managed to drive away Toyotomi Hideyoshi at that time. The Tokugawa shogunate is only stronger than the Toyotomi Hideyoshi era, and it can be mobilized There are as many as 20 soldiers, we must not provoke them. In case they make a comeback, what should we do." King Koryo said hesitantly.

"However, I think that this is a good time for our navy and the Daming Navy to join forces after 30 years. If we miss the opportunity to cooperate with Daming, we will lose the trust of the Liao Army." Li Wei Still have to hold on.

"The newly appointed generals of Dongjiang Town, Chu Yun and Mao Wenlong, are much stronger, and they will become great weapons in the future. Why don't I ask General Cui Xiaoyi to bring twelve warships to join the navy of the Liao Army?" Intrigued, so I decided to say.

"My son is willing to go to Dongying with General Cui Xiaoyi."

The fortress-like Victory is moored in Dalian Port, and next to the Victory, there are four frigates and four artillery merchant ships shaking slightly on the undulating waves.

In addition to the nine warships equipped with heavy artillery, troop carriers and transport ships converted from large merchant ships are also moored.

Carts of grain and crates of ammunition were transported onto the ship by workers on the dock, and each and every navy soldier was busy practicing naval warfare skills, and was busy preparing for the next battle.

In addition to deciding on the ships to send and the forces to be united, Chu Yun also had to decide on the infantry to lead the crusade against the Hizen Domain.Not only the Ministry of the Navy strongly demanded to go to war, but even the Ministry of War strongly demanded to go to war.

The officers of the first brigade, the second brigade, and the third brigade all rushed to fight. Even Chen Jisheng, the brigade commander of the fourth brigade, who was studying in the army's martial arts hall, sat at the gate of Chu Yun's mansion with a stern face. Chu Yun chased and intercepted him.

"Master General, our fourth brigade has not made any military exploits for the Liao Army since we joined the Liao Army. Please give us a chance this time!" Cloud's thigh cried.

A group of businessmen looked at each other in blank dismay: "Isn't this the former deputy general of Dongjiang Town, General Chen Jisheng?"

Jisheng didn't care about the curious eyes of the merchants at all, and continued to cry to Chu Yun with snot and tears: "Our fourth brigade only has one hundred muskets as teaching guns, and only two cannons for training. Your Excellency , we have a brigade of 3000 people, other brigades are like Mrs. Yang's battalion, and their firepower is stronger than ours, this is really partial..."

Chen Jisheng's fourth brigade was set up by Chu Yun for the smooth integration of Dongjiang Town, and almost all of them were the core members of the original Dongjiang Town.Chu Yun couldn't trust these people for a while, who knew if they would run back to the court halfway.So Chu Yun symbolically gave the Fourth Brigade one hundred rifles and two artillery pieces.According to Chu Yun, the Liao army did not support idlers. Although the fourth brigade had not been equipped with new firearms, the soldiers of the fourth brigade more or less knew how to use them after training with these muskets and cannons.

The problem is that these new weapons cannot be stopped once they are used!After the soldiers of the Fourth Brigade tried the muskets and muskets used for training, when they got back the original blunderbuss and bows and arrows, it was like asking a rich man who is used to eating abalone wings to eat pickles and bacon. They are not used to it at all. , especially disgusted!
So over time, the soldiers of the [-]th Brigade no longer wanted to practice bows, arrows, blunderbuss, etc. All they thought about was guns and artillery!Even when the officers in the Liao Army compare with each other, they always look at how many muskets and artillery they have!
So Chen Jisheng, who was tossed by his subordinates for guns and artillery, asked Chu Yun to go to the Army Lecture Hall for further training. He took this opportunity to show his loyalty to Chu Yun, and then found another opportunity to ask for guns and artillery.

Unexpectedly, after Chen Jisheng came to the Army Lecture Hall, the modern combat system taught by the teaching officer Archduke Karl made Chen Jisheng feel refreshed.He found that his set was completely behind, not only in weapons, but also in the construction of more advanced tactics and fortification systems.

And Chen Jisheng's fourth brigade was ridiculed by Mrs. Yang who also came to study!Mrs. Yang was only a hundred households a year ago, and the official position is far from that of Chen Jisheng, but Mrs. Yang is awesome now!
The first brigade directly under Chu Yun, the brigade commander is Chu Yun, and Mrs. Yang is nominally a battalion commander, but in fact she is only a little lower than the other brigade commanders.Moreover, Mrs. Yang's first battalion has the most advanced firearms of the Fuliao Army, and there are twelve artillery pieces alone.This is just an infantry battalion, and he has a brigade of 3000 people and two artillery pieces, who should he talk to for reasoning!

"My lord, if you don't let our Fourth Brigade participate in this battle, the subordinates will die at the door to show you..." Chen Jisheng continued to complain with tears.

The other merchants were dumbfounded!It's unbelievable that an officer of this level is acting like a child.And the most amazing thing is that Chen Jisheng didn't care, he completely let go of his so-called integrity!

"It's alright, alright, get up, it's like a person who doesn't know what's going on and thinks my subordinates are in trouble..." Chu Yun also had nothing to do with Chen Jisheng.

Originally, Chu Yun thought that Chen Jisheng was a serious person as a lieutenant general of the Ming Dynasty, but he didn't expect that he was also a piece of meat.

"You pick 500 people from your first battalion to go with me, and go to the arsenal to collect their equipment later. If you perform well during this crusade, I will consider changing the equipment for your whole brigade." Chu Yun said.

"500 people, that's [-] muskets! My God, my lord, I love you so much! I'll go back and pick people!" Chen Jisheng jumped up in surprise, and disappeared like a rabbit .

Sure enough, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.Chu Yun shook his head helplessly.

"I made everyone laugh." Chu Yun said to everyone embarrassingly.

"My lord's soldiers are eager to fight, and this battle must be won!" A group of businessmen echoed.

"I'm thankful that this group of hob meat doesn't cause me any trouble." Chu Yun couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
