The [-]-ton captured sailing warship was also taken away, whether it was the captured one he brought or the enemy ships captured here, a large ticket of [-] tons and [-] tons was thrown to Wunan Most of the warships were wounded, and there are still some that have not been extinguished.
Wu Nan commanded the crew on the small boat, dragged out the available boats, and replaced them with his own people, captured all the British people on several merchant ships, and let people start to use merchant ships to transport these British people to St. Pierre Island for detention .
Two [-]-ton sailing warships were sent to escort them. In this battle, [-] British sailors, British naval personnel, and officers were captured.
Using the captured enemy boats and their own boats, it took two trips to transport these British people to the island.
The island was nearly losing five thousand British prisoners.
Leaving a few small boats to patrol around the island, there is no one to look after them, no food, no clothes, and they will starve to death on a small island.
The gathered British and Zhuang Lin handed over five 750-ton steam engine warships, five 180-ton steam engine warships, three [-]-ton warships, three [-]-ton warships, and sail warships that were not damaged. , I have a flagship of [-] tons, six ships of [-] tons, four ships of [-] tons, three ships of [-] tons, one of [-] tons, one of [-] tons, and one of [-] tons. Three [-]-ton armed merchant ships, two [-]-ton armed merchant ships, two [-]-ton armed merchant ships, one [-]-ton armed merchant ship, one merchant ship, four [-]-ton armed merchant ships, and two aircraft Shear Ship Communication Ship.
This is a huge fleet.
Hand over those under [-] tons to the first mate on his current flagship, and promote the first mate to the commander of the auxiliary fleet. After the sergeant major, he ordered him to take these ships separately to investigate the nearby waters, and at the same time intercept some enemy small ships and The reconnaissance ship, and then with a fleet of more than [-] tons, went to the sea area where the main fleet fought decisively.
Twelve nautical miles east of Marin Harbor.
Promote the captain of the [-]-ton flagship to the commander of the sailing warship and the captain of the squadron, and then promote a Han sergeant to the fleet commander of the steam engine battleship, and after that, the [-]-ton sailing warship serves as The flagship opens the way. The new captain of the flagship is the bosun, the first mate is the original second mate, and the bosun is the original third mate.
What remained was an eight-hundred-ton sailing warship, one 750-ton warship, three seven-hundred-ton paddle-wheeled steam-engine warships, one seven-hundred-ton warship, three five-hundred-ton warships, and two five-hundred-ton armed merchant ships. , two 180-ton merchant ships, one [-]-ton armed merchant ship, one merchant ship, and four [-]-ton armed merchant ships, to deal with the injured ships here and to search and rescue some wounded and drowned sailors who were not found.
Let them go to another small island with manpower and supplies to station after finishing processing. It is impossible to return to St. Pierre Island. There are many British people detained there. If they rebel and seize these ships, it is not a resource. Enemy?They can only be sent back to another big island.
It was already noon at this time, and there were five [-]-ton steam engine warships, five [-]-ton warships, three [-]-ton warships, and a [-]-ton flagship. Six ships, four ships with [-] tons, three ships with [-] tons, and two clipper communication ships took more than an hour to rush to a dozen nautical miles outside the battlefield.
At this time, the battlefield has become fierce. The ten ships of the third brigade are divided into a battlefield of about ten nautical miles, fighting with a dozen or so wounded enemy sailing ships. In the decisive battle, both sides suffered heavy losses. Many ships were withdrawing from the battlefield, while fleeing, while repairing the ships, and at the same time fighting with the enemies who rushed forward.
Wu Nan didn't say anything else, and ordered the sailing warship to help the third brigade, and rushed to the main brigade with the steam engine warship.
The battle was quite brutal. An hour later, the Sail Fleet lost five ships, but captured four enemy ships and sank seven enemy ships at the same time. The main fleet sank three ironclad ships, but Sinking seven of the enemy's four to five thousand ton steam engine ironclads, it seems that the British ironclads are still not as strong as the defense here.
Wunan's [-]-ton sail flagship was sunk, and he was wounded and boarded a [-]-ton steam engine warship to continue to help the main fleet in a decisive battle. At dusk, the British retreated, and Wunan pursued the enemy with a fleet that was still capable of fighting , The remaining seven warships of the third brigade also began to chase the enemy, and the main fleet was also chasing the enemy around.
At dawn the next day, Wu Nan watched as the Avalan Peninsula sank the last wounded [-]-ton enemy ironclad ship, leaving only three [-]-ton steam engine warships and one captured The [-]-ton sailing warship resolutely withdrew its troops, returned, and sent a communication ship to the sea to find people and capture the enemy.
For three days, the fleet was looking for people in the sea, and captured a total of [-] enemy warships, [-] warships under [-] tons, and sank about [-] ships. At the same time, they abandoned [-] of their own warships. All damaged and no longer usable.
Some of the wounded warships left by the main fleet on the battlefield and the sailing warships below 8000 tons called back from the island surrounded the entire sea area around the adjacent peninsula, constantly blocking and searching for the enemy's routs and deserters who fell into the water, and captured them within a week. The enemy has [-] people. Because of the defeat of the navy, the enemy's attack on the road has become rootless. Soon, the enemies who were surrounded on the beach and adjacent to the peninsula surrendered, because the [-] troops of Sweeping Thunder and Jinlin also surrendered. came back.
They quickly regained the frontline territory, and searched the entire neighboring peninsula, and then found 1 tribal fighters on the land alone, and the others retreated, retreating to the depths of the main island, Or fled elsewhere.
On the first day of the second week, Wu Nan returned to the port of Xinxianju Town with the remaining six main battleships of the squadron, and then came to the Juyi Hall of the camp.
Chapter 1 After the War [-]
Sitting in the Juyi Hall, Wu Nan felt a lot of emotion.
The number of officers in the officer corps has decreased again, half of them. About 17 people died in battle or disappeared, and some new meritorious people sat on the other side. These are later Han officers, including the army and navy. The navy has more, because it is the navy that decides the victory of this battle.
He, Wu Nan, and Zhuang Lin, Chi Dabiao of the second brigade, and Lu Qi performed well in this naval battle. In the main fleet, there was a Spanish foreign officer who performed well, a Turkish foreigner, and several naval battles Great acting army officers who are all combatants on board.
Zhao Shuai is also very excited this time. He has always been doing intelligence work. Although his family was also in the army before joining the army, and later in the navy, he really participated in front-line operations here. He used to have a good reputation in the Chinese Empire. The resources, from the new barracks to the garrison, to the last guards, just swayed a few times on the front line, and I have also seen some conflicts and exchanges of fire on the front line, but it was a small conflict after all. There are 10,000+ people in such a big battle, and there are many warships. It is the first time to participate in the big battle.
Regardless of his great power, he is the leader of the military intelligence department that everyone fears in the Huaxia Empire, but his deterrent power here is less than half, because many people have unexplainable grievances with the Huaxia Empire. , he is even more dangerous here, and it was for this reason that he was out of place some time ago.
Because of his arrival, Wu Kejing's identity was exposed, which made Wu Kejing lose the reputation and respect of the second leader here. Instead, the old colonel Tang Yaweng, who worked hard, became the object of everyone's respect. It holds most of the rights of the New Qin Empire adjacent to the peninsula.
The dignified second leader of the New Qin Empire, Li Yafeng’s magistrate of the Neighboring Peninsula, can only play a role in agricultural planting, agricultural income, grain harvest, storage, and conflicts between various tribes and foreigners and Han people. Other matters, whether it is the management of captives, the right to mobilize the supervisory brigade, or the mobilization of material warehouses, logistics and supply of troops, are Tang Yaweng's rights. Although he is the county magistrate in charge, he can't intervene.
This made Wu Kejing and Zhao Shuai very depressed. Zhao Shuai can only work harder on intelligence work, but intelligence work is useless without manpower support. Military officers may be able to collect everyone's movements, thoughts, and words in the New Qin Empire troops on the adjacent peninsula, but it is of little use to the outside world.
His greatest role was to manage the telephone and telegraph systems.
This time he was sent to the front line to command the battle. He made a few mistakes at the beginning, but he quickly made up for it. He took over Wu Kejing's class, and with Wu Kejing's assistance, as the general of the Imperial Guards of the Chinese Empire, his The ability is still there, and he quickly used the reinforcements to resist the enemy's constant impact, and suppressed the enemy by the way. With the reinforcements mobilized by Luo Zuo, he took back a dock and took back all the ports yesterday. , Water Village, forcing the enemy to retreat to the beach. After the enemy fleet was defeated, the enemy had no way to retreat. He directly launched a counterattack with the troops supported by the sky-sweeping mines and Jinlin, and captured nearly 1 enemy troops on the beach. .
After that, it will not be under his management. Sweeping Thunder took over the military power and searched for the enemies on the whole island. His task is to restore the order of the port, patrol and manage the port, and clean up the port. The ships that washed up on the beach, in short, cleaned up the sunken and destroyed ships in the port, so that the sea in the port became spacious and clean, otherwise the ships would not be able to dock.
After [-] days of fighting, the ports and waterways were five or six nautical miles out to sea, and there were at least a hundred ships sunk by the enemy or ourselves. Can only go to Grand Bank, the port of St. Lawrence.
Li Ya and Tang Yaweng walked into the Juyi Hall and glanced at it. Luo Zuo shouted, "Stand at attention, report to the leader. All army, navy, logistics officers, and officials from various ministries must report for duty. Please give instructions."
Tang Yaweng glanced at it, and said to Luo Zuo: "Everyone should do it, and prepare to report the situation of this battle." Then he opened a chair for Li Ya, and after Li Ya sat down, all the officers and officials sat down, and Tang Yaweng was on the lower left chair Sitting down, Sao Tianlei silently sat on the lower right hand. Of course, they must be inferior to Zhao Shuai and Wu Kejing. Although they have strength and rights, they are still inferior to them in terms of false names. Sitting next to Zhao Shuai and Wu Kejing.
Li Ya pursed his lips slightly, rolled his eyes, and looked to the left and right, "Tell me, how much did we lose this time?"
Everyone was silent for a while. They all knew that this decisive battle with the British fleet resulted in heavy casualties. Although the main fleet won, it lost almost all of its warships. Three ships were sunk, two were seriously injured, and even Mo Lin was seriously injured. If Zhuang Lin hadn't led the army to help at the last moment, the main fleet might have been wiped out.
In this way, it was still until Wunan adjusted the deployment and led as many as sixteen warships to help before finally defeating the enemy. In the subsequent pursuit battle, Wunan and the others sank six ships, plus the five ships that were sunk earlier, that is to say In the end, they only had a dozen seriously injured ships left before finally fighting the British to death.
But this time the common people, foreign soldiers, Han soldiers, and even the army boarded the ships, and finally defeated the enemy with a will.
This time the New Qin Empire was greatly hurt.
Li Ya looked at Wu Kejing. Wu Kejing knew that he wanted to report first, so he coughed and attracted everyone's attention. He hurriedly took out a large octavo paper, slowly unfolded it, and read: "This time, our army and civilians There were more than 7000 people, including more than [-] Han soldiers, officers, and common people. In the end, more than [-] people died in battle, and more than [-] people remained.
In addition, we had more than 3000 prisoners before the war, including more than 8000 slaves.After the war we had 300 prisoners of war and 200 slaves.There were more than 6000 fugitives. When they fled, these captives killed one of our Han squadrons, defeated a Han Chinese cavalry squadron, engulfed more than 200 people in the supervisory brigade, and killed more than 2000 of our surrendered captives. We killed more than 6000 slaves who surrendered to us, and kidnapped more than [-] slaves, leaving us with only about [-] captives and slaves. In the end, most of these captives and slaves died or disappeared during the battle. "
Everyone has no expression on their faces. Everyone knows that this time the loss has been heavy. Listening to these figures, they just know how much money they still have.
Wu Kejing looked up at the crowd for a while, but seeing that they were silent, he could only lower his head and continue reading.
Chapter 310 After the War 2
Wu Kejing read it for half an hour and still didn't finish reading about civil affairs and land losses. The biggest loss was of course the farmland. Together with the battle, the farmland was abandoned and missed the farming season. Farming season is not like what most people think, just replant it later. Without several months of sun exposure, without rainwater irrigation, without the tempering of temperature changing from cold to warm, and from warm to warm, when the autumn wind blows, most of the crops will not bear fruit, and the fruits that are produced are still green and small. No way.
This is not the same as plowing on time, and then harvesting early in autumn. Such a harvest is different from the harvest that missed the farming time. It will mature to a certain stage and harvest earlier, but the maturity stage is different. After a little storage, it can still be eaten without delay, but the harvest is less. It should be 420 catties, but [-] catties were harvested.
In general, this season is wasted, and the next season can only grow fast-maturing vegetables or other crops, and replant other fast-maturing grains.
Grain production has been reduced in an all-round way, and the harvest has failed, and only a mere [-] tons have been harvested.
It is almost enough to eat 100 million catties of grain for a month.So food has to be purchased abroad.
Fortunately, some of the grain stored in the warehouse was not damaged, and this year was still able to survive.
Some workshops were destroyed by war, some wood was set on fire by escaped slaves, some arsenals were destroyed by captives, and the weapons and equipment inside were taken away to fight against the people of the New Qin Empire.
The intelligence system was destroyed, many intelligence personnel were lost, and almost no one was an intelligence personnel.
Then it was Tang Yaweng's report, and his report was more careful, because he actually managed many things.
"There are still 500 million tons of grain in storage. Because of the decrease in population, we can still eat here for two years, but the appetite will not be very good. The coastal towns and ports have been destroyed and need to be rebuilt. The fortifications have not played much role, because most of us What needs to be dealt with is the escaped slaves and captives. They did not attack from the sea, but from behind. Therefore, the people and small teams guarding many fortifications were devastated.
Our Overseer Brigade was completely destroyed. The current Overseer Brigade was replaced by the Exile Brigade. The brave foreign officers and soldiers in this battle served as officers, added some loyal prisoners, and promoted some slaves. Finally, the Overseer Brigade was divided into two brigades. The main force is the exile brigade of the two squadrons that Master Jin Lin brought to Fort Swift Current this time. There are still many Han Chinese soldiers in these teams.
The Overseer Brigade is currently stationed in two places, one is Saint-Pierre Island, and the other is a small town outside Xinxianju Town, which has now been changed into a prison camp.
