"The offensive in the north and south directions is going smoothly. This time the Western-Turkish coalition forces are in doom." Zhao Xu looked towards the Malacca Strait with cold eyes. "In this case, now let the two naval warships merge into one place. After clearing the forts, they will enter the strait. Inside."

After that, he ordered the scout ship to bring his order to Gong Ying.

Not long after, Gong Ying received the order and led the warships to the northern sea.

When the fleets converged, the coalition soldiers on the south and north sides were all busy escaping.

As long as the army led by Wesley fled, the Azure Dragon Army and the Suzaku Army pursued them.

Of course, Qinshan and Guantong did not forget the task of clearing the fort.

They each dispatched two thousand soldiers, and a total of four thousand people marched along the coast towards the entrance of the strait.

These soldiers will pull out the fort groups built by the coalition forces from east to west.

Other soldiers chased the coalition soldiers until they reached their second line of fortifications.

At this moment, they suddenly saw a ball of fire coming out of the sea, and then a thunderous sound sounded.

Cannonballs flew over from the sea one after another, and the shells were like rain.

The soldiers of the Azure Dragon Army and the Suzaku Army naturally knew what this was.

Just as their warships bombarded the coalition forces, the other side was obviously using the artillery on the warships to deal with them.

Upon seeing this, they stopped their pursuit and immediately evacuated some distance north.

"Boom boom boom..."

As they evacuated, shells continued to fall from the coalition warships.

These cannonballs were round in shape and had a burning matchstick at the head. The match rope burned out and the shells exploded one after another.

Looking at the disaster caused by the explosion, the soldiers of the Qinglong Army and the Suzaku Army sweated.

Fortunately, when they pursued, they were in twos and threes and their personnel were scattered.

If a dense formation charge is launched, this wave of artillery bombardment can cause them considerable casualties.

"This Western native still has two brushes, and he can also use explosive bullets, although the range is insufficient." Qin Shan and Guantong also caught up.

Guan Tong was sweating in his heart and mocked again.

"Don't underestimate any enemy." Qin Shan's eyes narrowed.

In fact, in war, both the enemy and ourselves will continue to learn to decipher the other party's tactics.

For example, in the first trench fortification, the charge of the Western Turks was a typical skirmisher line.

Although they have not yet understood the essence of the three-three system, they have it in shape.

At this time, the Xitu people synthesized intelligence from all aspects and changed their tactics in a targeted manner.

In addition, even the Westerners are imitating their muskets and artillery.

The rifled gun is one, and the naval gun firing explosive shells is the second.

If they can build a breech-loading gun, tactics will further change with the replacement of weapons.

This is also the reason why King Yan has always emphasized that the enemy cannot be underestimated.

Otherwise, if they make a mistake, they may make a mistake, such as this pursuit.

"What should we do now? They are really learning how to use it. If they charge, we will suffer heavy casualties." Guan Tong asked again.

"Let the soldiers eat and rest." Qin Shan looked to the west, the sun was about to set.

After a pause, he continued, "Wait until our soldiers hold the forts on one side of the strait and let the navy take care of them."

Guan Tong nodded and smiled helplessly, "You said that our army and navy can't see eye to eye all day long, but sometimes we can really use each other."

"Of course, no one is separated by sea and no one is missing." Qin Shan smiled.

After that, he ordered the soldiers to set up a resting camp.

In order to prevent sneak attacks, machine guns were placed on the outside, and bells and other objects were also placed.

at the same time.

Seeing that Dasong's army was held back by artillery fire, the coalition soldiers who fled into the fortifications gave a huge cheer.

He finally didn't have to worry about being driven directly into the sea by the other party.

Relying on their battleships, they could wait safely in the fortifications until reinforcements arrived.

Wesley and the officers also breathed a sigh of relief.

For Wesley, he finally felt like he made the right decision this time.

However, when Malfoy arrived angrily, he fell into uneasiness again.

"You abandoned the first fortification and huddled in this small port fortification. Didn't you expect that the Dasong army would take the opportunity to seize the fort group on one side of the strait!" Malfoy shouted when he saw Wesley.

He was absolutely furious.

Wesley thought only of his Army; he had to think of the Navy.

Once the fort is lost, the Dasong Navy is likely to rush into the strait. That will be the real despair.

"Then tell me what to do. Are you going to let the coalition soldiers die in the first fortification? Malfoy, I already care about your navy. Otherwise, when the Great Song Fleet bombards us, I should let your navy Go out and fight!" Wesley was equally angry.

He had already suffered enough anger at Da Song's hands and didn't want to be angered by Ma Fuul again.

"Only God knows what to do? Oh, God, why are we fighting with the damn Dasong army in this damn place." Mafuor frowned in pain.

Immediately, he said: "Gaoleer was also driven to the strait by Dasong's army. You all failed. Before, our navy also failed. This can already explain a lot. Wesley, while the fort has not been attacked, The Dasong army has taken over and retreats to Tianzhu at night, otherwise, all of you will die here."

"Withdraw?" Wesley's eyes suddenly became confused.

Maful nodded heavily, "Even so, we can only evacuate 20,000 people at a time. Who to let go and who to let stay is up to you."

Wesley fell into silence for a long time, and then he said to Maful, "Let me think about it."

Maful nodded, "You only have one night to think about it, and tell me the result the next morning. Sometimes, you have to make a choice to minimize the losses and never let the damn Dasong people eat us all."

Wesley nodded.

At this time, it was completely dark, and the fortifications were full of torches.

That night, Wesley never slept. He kept cursing the Dasong army and thinking about what to do next.

Maful's warning was right.

They were temporarily safe here, but without the protection of the first fortification, their artillery was in danger.

In addition, the artillery of the Dasong army had not arrived yet because of its slow movement.

When its artillery was in place, it could still bombard their fortifications.

Therefore, whether to withdraw or not tomorrow morning will really determine the fate of the coalition.

Until dawn, he finally made a decision, and immediately summoned officers from various countries and told them his thoughts.

The cruel war made officers from various countries panic, and none of them opposed Wesley.

Just go back and select the first batch of evacuees.

Of course, this "first batch" of evacuations is just a comfort to the soldiers who stayed behind, because no one knows whether this is the last evacuation.
