Chapter 321 Bombarding the Island
Ten days later, Wei Ming arrived at the small island where the Dutchman was hiding with hundreds of warships. Through the binoculars, he could still see the silhouettes of the people on the island.It seems that the huge fleet has had a great impact on the Dutch, as can be seen from their panicked expressions.

"Master Hou, shall we start attacking now?" Lu Xiangsheng looked at the sky, it was getting late today, and it would be dark in another hour.Although the small island where the Dutchman is hiding has not much strength, but it will definitely not be captured in such an hour.

"Order, now the warships are bombarding the small island ahead, first pull out their coastal defense guns, and the few remaining small boats, to attack the enemy's will to resist. It would be best if they could be recruited. Yes. If you can’t surrender, let’s explore the other party’s situation, don’t have any big weapons waiting for us. We can also lay a good foundation for tomorrow’s general attack.” Wei Ming said.Lu Xiangsheng hesitated for a moment, but insisted on going down to make arrangements, but he said in his heart, Dutch, you must persevere!My marines haven't come in handy yet, don't just surrender like this!

"Boom boom boom!" The roar of the artillery resounded through the sky and the earth, Wei Ming covered his ears, but he was cursing in his heart, grandma, no matter what time the artillery is fired, the sound is always so loud.The brothers who fired the gun didn't say whether they could bear it or not, but this ear would definitely not be able to bear it.It would be great if the cannon could be equipped with a silencer sometime.

The Dutchman had not lost his will to resist.Although the Dutchmen who were blown into the sky can be seen from time to time through the telescope, but a batch of dead ones come up again, and they are not prepared to play white chess at all.Even halfway through the fight, dozens of warships sailed out of the harbor hidden by the Dutchman.But just after showing a head, he was beaten back.Now the small sampan of the Dutchman simply cannot enter the eyes of the Ming Dynasty Navy.Taking it out can only be embarrassing.

The sky gradually darkened.When the last corner of the sun at the edge of the sky also disappeared on the sea level, the Ming army stopped the shelling, and the ship uttered cheers that shook the sky.The setting sun reflected the water and the sky, and the sunset glow that had not yet dissipated made the cheers very appropriate.In contrast, the Dutchman's position was dead silent, they couldn't be seen from the telescope, and they didn't know that everything had gone underground.

"Report the loss." Wei Ming said.After the battle, he used to listen to his own losses first, and then look at the results.This navy was built by him alone, and it hurts him to die.As for the Dutchman, you can't kill them all anyway. In Wei Ming's mind, it doesn't make much difference if one dies or two dies.

"It is reported that two warships violated the combat rules and were too close to the enemy's position. They were hit, killed ten people, and sank one warship. Fortunately, the soldiers who fell into the sea were rescued in time, and no damage Too much loss." The clerk below reported.

"Where are the captains of the two warships?" Wei Ming asked with a frown.Can this happen?When Wei Ming set up this team, he set up the rules of war, which all soldiers must strictly abide by, and they cannot slack off.Over the years, based on actual combat experience, Lu Xiangsheng and naval officers and soldiers have also added a lot of new things to the code, making the code more and more perfect.And now someone is blatantly violating it, what does this mean?When I don't exist?Or do you think that now that the battle has been won, you can be arrogant?Don't you know that arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated?

"The captains of the two warships are being escorted over, and they must be arriving soon," said the clerk.

"There's no need to come here. You'll be demoted two grades, your salary will be fined for half a year, and each person will receive [-] lashes. Tell the executioner, if you still want to get a living in the navy, just give me the [-] lashes!" During the war, you blatantly violated the rules of war. You don’t want to live anymore. Could it be that the soldiers below will be buried with you? Also, half of the pensions of the dead and wounded soldiers will be deducted from the salaries of these two blind guys, as an example to others !” Wei Ming said sullenly.Originally, violating the rules of war meant beheading, but Wei Ming couldn't make up his mind after all.I just hope they can mend their ways.

"Yes." After the little official recorded it, he should go down to deliver the order.

"Why, seeing how you always want to talk, is there any dissatisfaction with my decision?" Wei Ming glanced at Lu Xiangsheng who was hesitant to speak beside him and said.

"Master Hou, I'm also to blame for this matter. I usually only care about educating the soldiers that they must fight first, but they also ignore the importance of the rules of war. Please punish me!" Lu Xiangsheng, the direct person in charge, can't get rid of the responsibility for such a thing. .However, Wei Ming waved his hand, and did not intend to punish Lu Xiangsheng, but said: "Humans, only after accidents will grow their memory. I hope you can remember this lesson. An army must have a soul. Iron fight There is no barracks where there is always the same group of people. If your barracks has no soul, then the soldiers will just dawdle and get rewards after they come in. Let’s not talk about the combat effectiveness, and the military discipline must not be counted on. And it doesn't have the spirit it should have. And if this barracks has a soul, then no matter who comes here, they must inherit this soul, be proud of it, and carry it forward. Our Guangzhou Navy must not only He is famous all over the world for his high salary, but he should also be famous all over the world for his military discipline, thoughtfulness, and soul, do you understand what I mean?" Wei Ming turned his head and looked at Lu Xiangsheng and said.

"Thank you Lord for your teaching, I will finally understand." Lu Xiangsheng said loudly, but Wei Ming didn't have any hope that Lu Xiangsheng could understand these things.Now even the concept of defending the country is very vague, let alone the soul of the army.The military spirit can be a slogan, a manifestation in a battle, an ethereal goal, or a spirit expressed and passed down by generals.Just like Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu State, shouted that although there are three families in Chu, the death of Qin must be Chu, which can also be regarded as a kind of military spirit.After that, Xiang Yu carried it forward even more, making Jiangdong's soldiers all the way.And Wei Ming is not optimistic about this kind of periodic slogan.It's as if Chu had no goals after destroying Qin back then.When it's done, it's broken.He still prefers such slogans as enlisting in the army and defending the country.In other words, it is the spirit of being able to fight tough battles, daring to fight tough battles, not afraid of death, and not complaining about suffering.It feels abstract when it is said, and it is even more difficult to understand.However, each sentence will have a different understanding in the eyes of different people, and maybe Lu Xiangsheng can comprehend some more profound things from it.

Entering the war mode, of course Wei Ming has to set an example and not be a womanizer.Except for the female guards, the other female family members Wei Ming were placed on a single ship, far behind the fleet, and some ships were sent to protect them.It is said that the navy does not allow women to board the ship, saying it is unlucky.Wei Ming can also understand.After serving in the army for three months, sows can compete with Diaochan. You put some women on the boat, isn't it just to make you feel uncomfortable?And what you are facing are some killers with red eyes. If you dare to stop them at that time, it would be strange if you don't blow up the camp.So there is a reason why it is unlucky.If it wasn't for the fact that this war would not last long, Wei Ming would never have brought these women here.It seemed to him more like a journey than a war.After ordering to be careful of the enemy's sneak attack at night, he returned to his cabin.Although sailing at night is very dangerous, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry. There is always nothing wrong with being careful.The patrol has been sent, and some mines have been placed around, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Qin Yuxin stood guard outside Wei Ming's door and never left her. Wei Ming had no intention of letting her in to rest.Now, Qin Yuxin is the commander of Wei Ming's personal army, and he can be regarded as a general regardless of size.Now that we are fighting, the whole army must abide by military regulations.People can't stand without trust, and the army can't help it.Even if it's just pretending, I still have to put on an appearance these days.Wei Ming thought so, and Qin Yuxin thought so too.

The breeze blows, the night is as cool as water
