Wilson looked seriously at the Dengzhou Military Port in front of him.
The three warship groups from different countries are now communicating operational information through the exchange of semaphores with each other. Under Wilson's order, the first batch of twenty warships went forward and entered the military port bay.
Through observation, they found that only eight battleships of the Great Yu Kingdom were docked in the vast bay, and there seemed to be no battleship of the Great Yu Kingdom that he had just seen at sea in the port.
"Send our soldiers to search for landing sites on both sides of the military port, seize their gun emplacements and shipyards, and the remaining warships go to the Dengzhou Wharf and attack their merchant ships to attract attention."
Wilson calmly gave orders. In order to achieve this goal, he carefully collected all the information and kept the nearby terrain in mind.
"Eight warships? Wilson, we are probably caught in their trap." Dick said worriedly. According to the information they received, the Da Yu State Navy had at least 96 warships, but now they only had eight in front of them.
In his opinion, other warships must encircle them again.
Wilson raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, I will check again before attacking. Look, the person I'm talking about is coming soon."
While speaking, he looked at the sea not far away. A ship without a flag was coming towards them. After a while, the ship arrived in front of the fleet.
A man dressed as a samurai boarded Wilson's battleship. "Long time no see, Haruaki Makino. "Wilson smiled. He knew this man. He and Kerry had met this wandering pirate leader in Nagasaki three years ago.
"General Wilson." Makino Haru was obviously embarrassed, and his samurai uniform was also a bit ragged. The only thing that didn't change was the dangerous gaze in his eyes.
If it is not for Chunming Makino to provide information, Wilson really is unwilling to cooperate with him, whether they are from Da Yu or the Japanese, they are all inferior nations.
"Let's make a long story short, I need the intelligence of the current military port, where are their warships." Wilson asked directly.
Makino Haruaki participated in the formulation of this plan, but they were only responsible for the collection of intelligence.
"Most of their warships have gone south. If I guess right, they must have gone to attack the Spaniards." Makino Haruaki looked indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Spaniard." Wilson looked at the Spanish fleet in the other direction and asked, "Are you sure?"
"It's uncertain about the attack on Spain, but it's certain about going south." Makino Haruaki nodded affirmatively.
Dick burst into laughter when he heard the words, "God is on our side. It seems that we can successfully destroy their shipyard this time, leaving the country out of breath for a long time."
Wilson was not so happy. He was a little worried. It was very unusual for the Great Yu Country to go south, just like the Great Yu Country came out, now they are also coming out.
They can destroy the military port of Dengzhou, and they can completely seize Malacca and control the route of Australia. If so, the advantage gained by attacking Dengzhou will not offset the advantage of Great Chongqing to seize Malacca.
Because once Malacca was controlled, their shortest route from Europe to Asia was cut off.
"I hope they didn't think of Malacca." Wilson thought to himself, and then he asked the soldiers to pay Makino Haruaki for the cost of collecting intelligence.
After receiving the payment from the British, Chunming Makino looked at the Dengzhou military port with hatred. He said: "I hope you can destroy the Great Yu Kingdom, so that we can escape the rule of the Great Yu Kingdom."
In the First Battle of Ryukyu, he completely lost to the Great Yuguo. Now he still remembers the humiliation that day. Now Yamada Nobunaga surrenders to the Great Yuguo. However, many samurai who opposed Yamada Nobunaga did not approve of the surrender book, and he is one of them.
As long as there is any chance of stumbling Da Yu country, he is willing to charge forward.
"This is a difficult task, and it may not be possible with one country alone, and I hope Mr. Makino will not give up." Wilson said: "We British will always be your allies."
Makino was moved in his heart, he bent down and bowed to Wilson, "Please."
With a smile on his mouth, Wilson decided to end the battle as soon as possible. He said: "Sorry, now is our offensive time. I can no longer accompany Mr. Makino."
"It doesn't matter, I will wait for your victory on my ship." Makino Haruaki looked excited, then got off the battleship and returned to his ship, the outside of the fleet watching the battle.
After receiving the news that the main force of the battleships of the Great Yu Kingdom had all gone south, Wilson no longer had any scruples. He ordered the warships to sail into the bay and annihilate all the warships in the military port.
Inside the naval port, Xie Yuan has been watching this huge combined fleet, and for the first time in ten years, they have experienced such a large-scale naval battle.
"My son of a bitch, come on, grandpa will send you into the sea to feed the fish." Xie Yuan hated the battleship as it slowly entered the naval port. While arranging coastal defenses, he had already dispatched the marines stationed in the naval port. The team enters the battlefield.
At the same time, he sent cavalry hunters to Dengzhou Camp for help. As an important trading port in the Great Yu Kingdom, Dengzhou was naturally a key defense city for the army.
Therefore, there are 9,000 army soldiers remaining in the Dengzhou Camp.
When Xie Yuan cursed, twenty warships entered the military port. What surprised him was that the remaining warships did not follow in, but cruised to both sides of the military port.
Seeing this scene, Xie Yuan was shocked in a cold sweat. He said to Ding Chang: "Oh, they must be ready to take our fort in a roundabout way and let the Marines send people to watch them."
"Yes~EbookFREE.me~ Ding Chang came out.
Raising the binoculars and continuing to stare at the warships entering the military port, Xie Yuan found that these warships really stopped outside their range, obviously waiting for their soldiers to attack the fort.
In this way, they can take the opportunity to attack the military port.
Taking a deep breath, he looked at a low mountain in the north outside the military port. This low mountain stretched into the sea and was a natural barrier. Li Wei and the twelve steam warships he led were on standby, "Li Wei, this It's up to you whether you can hold the military port this time."
After all, he made people ignite a beacon.
The black smoke rose, and Li Wei quickly noticed that at this time he ordered the semaphore on the mast to deliver orders.
The warships he led this time are all hybrid warships, and these warships use the latest three-expansion steam engine as the source of power, which can be described as powerful.
In Li Wei's view, the combat effectiveness of these brand-new warships is definitely higher than sailing warships that can only move by wind.
