Chapter 225
Long Yongsheng, who had always wanted to fight a happy naval battle but had no chance, was so happy to get this order to kill all the Javanese navy.
He ordered all his men to sink them all if they encountered a large Javanese ship, no matter what the ship was, as long as there were Javanese soldiers on board, and no one was allowed to be left behind.
Just like Long Yongsheng's thoughts, these navy troops of the Great Song Changsheng Battalion, from the officers of the ships to the soldiers at the lowest level, have long wanted to fight a big battle.
The various island countries here did not have any decent naval forces at all, which made them almost become transport ships. Every time they transported the Changsheng Battalion and the Valiant Army to the shore, and then watched them charge and kill on the shore.
These sailors couldn't hold back for a long time, and the military orders they got this time made these sailors who had long wanted to fight a naval battle very excited.
Those gunpowder and cast iron bombs have been delivered continuously, that is, the Musketeers and Vulcan Army used a small part, and a large number of gunpowder projectiles and cast iron bombs were stored in the warehouse at the port.
Almost all the sailors on the warships packed the gunpowder, cast iron bombs and other materials on the warships to the maximum carrying capacity.
As for food and drinking water, they didn't bring much. There are ports occupied by Song everywhere now, and it's too easy to get supplies. Only those gunpowder and bombs are their favorite things.
Long Yongsheng divided the more than 60 warships under his command into three teams. Each three-masted warship led a team of twenty buildings, and the two teams attacked from east and west directions.
Leave a team to patrol the rear, which team will support which team encounters an unexpected situation, or which team will take over when the ammunition of which team runs out and goes back to replenish ammunition.
After the navy here turned on the offensive and began to attack various sea areas in Java, all the people in Java were confused.
The monarch of Java was also frightened. The reason why he didn't pay attention to the Song people was because he felt that there were only tens of thousands of Song soldiers who came here, and there were more than a dozen soldiers who were targeted by him and wanted to grab them. big ship.
Moreover, most of those big ships were huge transport ships. He just thought that if he could snatch these big ships, he would be able to dominate this sea area in the future.
Who knows that the manpower has not yet been assembled, and the Javanese army sent first fought a battle with the Song army because of a small mistake.
This battle not only wiped out thousands of people on his side by the Song people, but also attracted a huge navy from the Song people.
Damn, if I knew that the Song people's navy had so many huge warships, who would take their ideas.
But it's too late for him to regret it now. Since the discovery of the Song people's navy, news from all over the world has spread like snowflakes.
The news that the navy in various ports in Java was not wiped out was so fast. Almost as soon as the navy of the Song Dynasty arrived there, there would be news that the navy on their side had been wiped out.
This country of Java is an archipelagic country, and the main force in the country is the navy. Although they have a large number of navy, their shipbuilding technology is very poor.
Not to mention the twenty-foot tall ships of the Song Dynasty, their largest warships were only five or six feet long, and there were not many of them, most of them were three or four feet long.
It is conceivable how miserable the Javanese navy will be. When the battle first started, the Javanese navy dared to launch all their warships to fight the Song people.
But as soon as they took part in the battle, they regretted so much that their intestines were green. Originally, those Javanese generals still wanted to use gang fight tactics, thinking that there were too many people on their side.
Although their boat was much smaller, they thought they could kill as many elephants as possible.
During the first naval battle, the Javanese navy gathered almost all the big ships on this big island, planning to surround them and climb onto the big ships of the Song people to kill all the Song people and rob them of their big ships.
But it was only after the battle that they realized that their original idea was so wrong that they simply lined up to find Song Jun to die.
When the Great Song Navy saw these large and small warships from the Java State, hundreds of Wuyangyang's ships came to meet their fleet, and immediately formed a line-up formation.
The navy of the Java State has never seen such a naval battle. In their previous naval battles, the warships on both sides collided with each other, connected to the board, and then fought for the ship on board.
The warships of the Song Army Navy lined up in front of their fleet from a long distance, which confused the Javanese generals.
Xin said: Is this Song person just a show?
Haven't they fought a naval battle?
Your ship is so big, shouldn't you rush over at full speed and knock down as many warships as we can?
The leader of the Javanese Navy, seeing that Song Jun had given up his greatest advantage, turned around and tried to escape.
How could he let go of such a good opportunity? He originally thought that he might lose a lot of warships and soldiers if he was hit by a large ship of the Song Army in this battle.
Now the Song army did not charge them, but chose to stand in front of them and wait for them to charge up.
Although the Javanese general felt that something was wrong, the Song Army gave up the method that would cause the most damage to their Javanese navy, which made him feel that the general of the Song Army navy might be a novice.
In any case, the thing that worried him most did not happen. The Javanese navy general immediately seized the opportunity and ordered to rush into the Song people's warships at full speed, boarding the ship to snatch the Song people's big ship.
But soon he understood that the fighting style of the navy on his Java side was fundamentally different from that of the Song people.
Just when their hundreds of warships were a few hundred feet away from the Song army's warships, there was a sudden bang on the Song people's warships, and then countless spheres emitting green smoke flew towards their fleet.
The first to fly were dozens of iron eggs the size of a human head, and those iron eggs smashed into these Javanese warships at an extremely fast speed, with constant clicking sounds in their ears, and screams one after another.
The masts of many warships were broken, and the hulls of many warships were smashed through and began to flood.
Before they could understand what was going on, those things that were thrown high up and flew towards them also flew over their heads.
'boom'! 'boom'! 'boom'!
Continuous explosions exploded on these warships of the Javanese navy, and in an instant, more than half of the soldiers on the hundreds of Javanese warships rushed to the front were killed or injured.
The soldiers of the Java State were all stunned. Before they could understand what was going on, they found that the Song army on the opposite side had already turned around and switched to the other side of the ship facing them.
Then the same situation as before happened again.
With just these two attacks, the water armies of the Java State collapsed, and the surviving warships scattered around and began to run back.
But how could these small boats outrun the big boats of the Da Song Navy.
Soon the warships of the Java State were caught up, and one after another was knocked over.
This battle was simply too miserable. While chasing and ramming the fleeing Javanese warships in front, the Song people fired at the Javanese warships on both sides.
From the beginning of the battle between the two sides to the end, it only took less than two hours.
The dead bodies of the Javanese navy floated everywhere on the sea in the naval battle area, and there were also many Javanese warships that were turned upside down and did not sink.
This naval battle ended with the complete annihilation of the Javanese navy, and it took a very short time.
This battle not only wiped out the Javanese navy on the entire big island, but also wiped out almost all the caravans on the island.
Because the Javanese navy knew that there was a huge gap between their side and the Song navy, in order to gain an absolute numerical advantage, they also recruited the cargo ships of the entire island's caravans to be used as temporary warships.
In this battle alone, more than half of the Javanese navy on the entire Sumatra Island was wiped out, and almost all warships on the entire island that could fight were wiped out.
The next thing was that the transport ships of the Song Dynasty, under the cover of these warships of the Song Dynasty, transported a large number of soldiers from the Changsheng Battalion to land on Sumatra Island.
The Javanese dignitaries on the island were terrified. They originally thought that even if the Song people's navy was not wiped out, the Song people would not be able to fight them. After a long time, the Song people's supplies could not keep up and they would definitely retreat.
Who knew that their water army in Java was defeated so thoroughly, it was completely wiped out!
In the past, when they went to war with other countries, when did they not fight back and forth at sea for several months?
Generally, no matter which country's navy has the upper hand, in the end, both countries will consume too much national resources because of such a conquest, and finally the envoys of the two countries sit down to discuss the conditions for the truce.
Like this, they have never seen or even heard of annihilating the entire navy of one side in just one battle.
The dignitaries of Java who were the first to get the news of the defeat immediately packed up their belongings and fled to other islands with their families from the other side of the island by boat.
Those who fled early were fine, but those who got the news late, or those who were reluctant to throw away most of their property and wasted a lot of effort, were not so lucky.
They were arrested by the Song Army navy who arrived later, all the belongings on board were confiscated, and everyone was arrested.
After Qin Tu arrived with many translators from the peninsula, and gave these translators to Lin Zheng and Long Yongsheng, everyone got rid of the chicken-to-duck dilemma.
According to the accounts of the captured Javanese dignitaries, the reason why they attacked the soldiers of Song Dynasty was because the king of Java wanted to snatch the big ship of Song Dynasty.
Qin Tu, Lin Zheng, and Long Yongsheng were very understanding, and they didn't say anything about compensation to the people in Java, although the dignitaries in Java kept arguing, saying that they could ask the king of Java to compensate the property of the Song Dynasty, hoping to cease the war .
What these three guys want now is not compensation. They are all fighting with Xiao Qi everywhere. Everyone is rich, and they don’t care if they accompany or not compensate. They just want to fight, and it’s best to fight for more .
Long Yongsheng was very speechless, and asked Qin Tu and Lin Zheng in private, saying that our Great Song Navy has not won a few battles so far, we are anxious to start fighting with them, and you are almost always idle, why are you so anxious.
Lin Zheng and Qin Tu saw that Long Yongsheng still didn't understand what was going on, so they told him: Now Da Song has almost conquered all the surrounding areas, and there will be fewer battles in the Changsheng camp in the future.
Your sailors are different, the son-in-law values your sailors so much, don’t you understand why?
Seeing that Long Yongsheng was still a little confused, Lin Zheng patted him on the shoulder: "General Long will practice more water warfare in the future. How can the navy that the son-in-law has spent so much effort to build is only here to plan? You will fight in the future." There will be many more battles than us."
Qin Tu also patted Long Yongsheng: "Brother Long! When you need to take the Ever-Victory Battalion with you in future expeditions, don't forget me, Qin Tu!"
Long Yongsheng suddenly realized that the commander-in-chief brought himself and the generals of those warships together from time to time to tell everyone about the seas of this world.
Long Yongsheng, who understood what was going on, hurriedly asked the two generals of the Changsheng Battalion with outstanding military exploits, and asked if the generals would really take them to fight thousands of miles away in the future?
Lin Zheng sighed: "You are lucky. You have been in charge of the navy from the very beginning. If it weren't for the fact that naval warfare is different from land warfare, I, Lin, would have already wanted to transfer to the navy. After the navy, I will be Da Song Yangwei." Where is Wanli!"
Long Yongsheng understood that Lin Zheng was definitely not joking, and that he, the Great Song Navy, would definitely have many battles to fight in the future.
After saying goodbye to the two outstanding generals, Long Yongsheng returned to his navy, and immediately summoned the generals under his command to start actual combat drills here according to the naval warfare methods taught by the previous generals.
And tell them that this time is his own assessment of them, and whoever can't master the tactics taught by the commander in the future, then go back to the Song Dynasty to patrol the sea area.
Those who want to stay in the Great Song Ocean Navy must be proficient in all the naval warfare methods and navigation knowledge taught by Marshal Xiao, and those who are not qualified will leave the Great Song Ocean Navy.
Although the generals under him didn't understand why there was such a military order, but who didn't like the giant warships of the Song Dynasty Navy, there was no invincible existence in the world.
Long Yongsheng took out the map of the sea area drawn by Xiao Qi, asked these guys to draw them all, and then assigned each of them an area.
Tell these guys that not only do they have to wipe out all the Javanese navy in the area they are responsible for, but also send someone to draw a detailed chart of the sea area they are responsible for.
Soon these generals replenished their ammunition, food, drinking water, etc., led their warships, and went to the area they were in charge of for actual combat training.
It doesn't matter if the Great Song Navy is tossing around, they are fighting with the Javanese navy all over the world in the sea area they are in charge of, and they send a small team to take a small boat to investigate the sea conditions in the sea area they are in charge of.
Then, according to the method taught by Xiao Qi, they drew down the sea charts of their respective responsible areas in detail.
These Song Army sailors had a great time playing here, and those people in Java panicked.
This Song person is too ruthless!
All of a sudden, we destroyed most of the navy that we gathered in Sumatra, and now we are all trapped on the island where we are, unable to move.
If not, you can just attack the island and let us surrender, shall we?
You don't attack directly, you just hang around our perimeter all day long, and kill our warships whenever you see them.
This makes us how to live, seeing that even the fishermen are afraid to go fishing, how about giving us a way to survive!
In the past two days, I may have a cold and a runny nose, and I feel groggy all the time. The update is a bit late.Sorry everyone.
