Li Ya has long complained about the king's expansion of the army and the way of mastering the army. Moreover, these troops are not engaged in combat, just to defend him, which took up a lot of military expenses. Fortunately, the king did not want a fleet of naval battleships. It is simply China.

However, now that Li Ya is retiring and ignoring world affairs, Wu Kejing immediately jumped out and hooked up with Wu Nan, which made the situation in the new Qin State more delicate and tense.

In other words, the new state of Qin has also fallen into conflicts among top officials, and has compromised and retreated in preparation for the long-term blockade and pressure on the British.

And Zhang Siyuan, who was far away in the base in Morocco, continued to fight with the British, that is, after attacking the enemy's narrowest mouth of the Strait of Gibraltar, they had rested for half a month, and their strength was still insufficient, and it was impossible to replenish the battleship. Because the enemy's blockade is too tight, it cannot be replenished at all.

Moreover, the senior officials of the new Qin State are now hesitating and struggling. Wu Nan wants to transfer back to the local center while fighting against the British, so he has no intention of resisting the British, let alone worrying about the life and death of the fleet below him. He has gone out of control now. Obsessed.

But what is really depressing is Wu Nan's confidant, his former adjutant Xiao Nan. Of course he was happy to go back, he was promoted, but Wu Nan obviously didn't take him seriously, because he had never contacted him. Since they were blocked again, there was no contact between their chief and adjutant, so he felt The loneliness of being left out in the cold.

The power struggle at the upper echelons of the New Qin State caused some delays in the operation of various places. Many supplies that should have arrived did not arrive. Many transport fleets that should go out were stranded in the port because there was no approval document on them. Many fleets had to return because there was no order from above. Staying at sea, when the telegram from above came, the fleet was also wiped out by the enemy. Due to coordination reasons, many transport fleets that were supposed to sail to the Azores encountered the British blockade fleet, and the entire army was wiped out.

As a result, the losses of the New Qin Kingdom are expanding, but these losses are like the raindrops on a rainy night, soft and silent, without the extraordinary analysis ability and overall intelligence and reconnaissance ability, it is impossible to discover it at the beginning Of course, Zhang Siyuan, who is closed in the Mediterranean Sea, doesn't know either. He just knows their current situation. If the new Qin Kingdom doesn't worry about breaking through the enemy's blockade with a large number of warships, it won't be able to send in supplies. Maybe the supplies can be sent in, but the warships must be It is impossible to sneak in, the enemy's blockade is too tight, and here in the Mediterranean, their blockade of the British and Spaniards makes it impossible for the Spaniards and the British to enter.

After several months of sailing and fighting, his fleet parts are also aging and need maintenance, so for more than a month, he hid in the Huceima port and watched his fleet maintenance in rotation.

Although the strength of his fleet is not bad so far, his fleet has seriously exceeded the period when it should return to the shipyard for maintenance. If it was in Xinding Yangzhou, it was not capable before, but the situation at that time can be returned to Xindingzhou For maintenance, Xindingzhou has complete construction and repairs that are not inferior to those in the local area, and maintenance shipyards and repair yards. Now Xindingyangzhou can basically repair and build, and it is on par with Xindingzhou, but the problem is that he The battleship of is now unable to sail back.

The first thousand 620 chapters of Zhang Siyuan's predicament

"Commander Xiao, what's the answer from above?"

"When will the supplies of our fleet arrive? I don't believe it. We can break through. A fleet as big as the Azores has three squadrons and a main fleet. The main fleet now has sixty main ships." The warships are now retracted to the hero port, and they are in the port as a fleet. We don't think about it at all. We can detour, find the enemy's weak point, and pass through it, and they stay in the port. Nothing at all?"

Zhang Siyuan sat in Xiao Nan's office, patted the table and shouted loudly to Xiao Nan, complaining about Wu Nan's forgetfulness and lack of support for the Moroccan base.

Standing behind him are his partner, Major Zhang Yuan, and his confidant, Lieutenant Baozi. One is the commander of the squadron and the other is the commander of the destroyer team. Level, this is the consistent tradition of the new Qin country, who made the new Qin country an island country now, the agents or acting governors of the various towns outside, or the real governors are basically from the navy.

Xiao Nan is also from the navy, Wu Nan's former adjutant, and the chief steward of the main fleet.

At the same time, he was also the chief steward of the Marine Corps of the Azores Fleet. In the Marine Corps, the two still had similar experiences.

Xiao Nan still had that expression, taciturn, aloof and indifferent, meticulously dressed, it seemed that there was not even a trace of sweat on his shirt, his military uniform was always neat and clean, sitting there like an old monk in meditation, Zhang Siyuan really didn't want to be with this It's too tiring to deal with people who pretend to be. He likes to deal with those who are enthusiastic and honest. The buddies drink a little wine and talk nonsense without any barriers and distances.

Generally, such a handsome and arrogant person is either a traitor or an insidious person, and he is very easy to stab a knife in the back, so he feels that he cannot get along with this kind of person in private. , but now he has to pat the table.

Although Xiao Nan himself did a good job in land battles, at least he did a good job in defense. The Spaniards and British 10,000+ colonial army did not enter so many black uncles, so he can be regarded as a capable person, but this guy has mastered With Wu Nan's call sign, he now belongs to Wu Nan's main fleet, a fleet of others, but can only be contacted through Xiao Nan, the army commander, which makes Zhang Siyuan see that Wu Nan doesn't like him.

Now he is not even given the squadron's exclusive call sign for the sea fleet, and he can only contact Song Qing's Xindingzhou Coast Guard, because he was the second squadron of the Coast Guard before, and now he can call That's the headquarters of the guy who replaced him as a major logistics officer.

Who told them to keep secret at that time, they could only use the call sign of the Second Squadron of the Coast Guard, and this call sign could only communicate with the Xindingzhou Guard internally, they were their shadow fleet, and their call sign was even lower First level, Song Qing was directly managed before, so everything can be contacted smoothly and get a reply. Now their relationship has been transferred to the Azov Islands Fleet in Wunan, so the call sign level has been lowered, so he can only accept calls wherever he calls. I got some news and chatted with each other at the same level, but I can't get any important information or instructions.

Song Qing was transferred away, and Jin Qishun took over. Even though Jin Lin knew about the original mission and the things they planned, he avoided suspicion now, because he did not belong to the troops under their management. If he intervened, he would cause internal struggles, so even now Zhang Siyuan contacted him, hoping that he would give orders or help, but Jin Lin didn't say anything, but Jin Qishun didn't understand these things when he first arrived, and even if he understood, he couldn't interfere, even if he didn't interfere with anything here. During this sensitive period, he had already received Song Qing's instructions.

Maybe Zhang Siyuan and Jin Qishun can talk about the affairs here and their personal relationship, but it is impossible to help in business affairs, not to mention the distance of thousands of miles, but between two naval forces, two overseas territories In the meantime, he has to avoid suspicion or be helpless, after all, he is not Song Qing, the boss of another naval force.

Although his power is weaker than Lu Fang and Zhuang Lin, Wu Nan and Xiao Nan, and his position is still power, and his qualifications are slightly inferior. After all, he has also fought with Wu Nan and cooperated with Wu Nan. After Xindingzhou, he relied on Jinlin's army power, and at the same time had ties to Zhuanglin. He formed a faction of his own, sandwiched between Wunan and Zhuanglin, but he was the most proud faction.

Zhuang Lin and Song Qing are in the center, Lu Fang and Jin Qishun are in overseas territories, echoing inside and outside, while Wu Nan and Xiao Nan are far away from the center, they are all in other places, and their supplies must rely on the mainland and Xindingzhou, so their strength and influence are not as good as The other two.

This is why Wunan has no intention of fighting, and has long wanted to fight against the British.

But no matter what he could do, he couldn't change the facts. With the alliance with Wu Kejing, he hoped to bring about a reconciliation with the British, and then quickly transferred back to the center with Wu Kejing's east wind to re-establish his own power.

And Zhang Siyuan has not yet appeared in the eyes of high-level officials. Jin Lin and Song Qing know him. As the captain of the squadron, he has only just touched the threshold of the ranks of the navy's lowest-ranking middle-level officers. As the base commander, he has just just touched the threshold. Enter the ranks of middle-level officials.

That's why he and the upper echelons can make decisions, and there is still a long distance between the people who decide the fate here, so even if he clamors loudly, it will not help. The current mainstream trend of the upper echelons is the reconciliation with the British promoted by Wu Kejing. The British took the initiative to back down. This time, they thought that it was okay for the new Qin to back down. Just like being an official, you can’t always treat your colleagues as your opponents and enemies. Well, Chinese officials have always had this kind of thinking. The operation of the international situation is considered to be the same as the power struggle among domestic officials. Everyone can take a step back. As long as there is no fatal result, everyone is really good.

Xiao Nan was quite cooperative with him to a certain extent, but he refused to read the situation of the Azov Islands and some telegrams, and he did not completely follow him in some matters, making Zhang Siyuan unable to let go of his own affairs , It is not a matter of his fleet to fight the British desperately.

When he first arrived, he had six cruisers, 21 frigates, and 24 destroyers.Now he has four cruisers, seventeen frigates, twenty-one destroyers, and other warships. Even if Jin Qishun handed over the fleet here to him, he suddenly has nearly thirty more warships, but it can only be said that there are more than thirty more In addition to being used as shore artillery, most of those warships have been dismantled and handed over to the army and shore artillery regiments for use. Some warships that are seriously injured and cannot be repaired can only be dragged outside the port or Acted as shore cannons on both sides of the port waterway.

That is to say, even if he is exhausted, he can't kill the British much, so he needs the support of the Azores fleet.

The first thousand 620 chapters set up another mountain

Jin Qishun left, Xiao Nan seemed to be impatient with him, the main reason was that he was not from Wu Nan's line, the previous alliance between Wu Nan and Zhuang Lin was just a mutual use, Xiao Nan, as Wu Nan's confidant, knew it, but People like them who are strict with themselves are actually relatively indifferent people. They don't have any sympathy for the people around them. All he cares about is his career and status. Xiao Nan also understands that if he doesn't use value

The first thousand and 620 chapters seven

Zhang Siyuan took away the fleet, and the fleet left behind may be enough to protect the port, but absolutely nothing can be done. Xiao Nan is very helpless, but he will not admit his mistakes. He is a rising star after Lu Fang and the others. An outsider who was later than myself gave accusations and made things difficult!So he quickly reported Zhang Siyuan's matter to him. Maybe Wu Nan didn't care about other things, but Wu Nan and the new Qin State attached great importance to such things as betrayal.

Just like the rebellious trend set off by mercenaries, the mercenary regiment system, which constitutes the military force of the new Qin State and an important structure of the country, is still not functioning normally, and investigations into the thoughts and behavior of mercenaries and possible betrayal are still ongoing Continuing, the Han officers and managers of the mercenary regiment were punished unanimously, all were transferred, and new officers and some officer regiments were redeployed, plus the investigation team was stationed in the departments of each mercenary regiment, from the local headquarters to the following The Chinese Army and Navy Marine Corps, Navy and Navy Fleet, as well as mercenaries stationed in various places monitored the prisoner camps and mines and factories, and extended the review time for the naturalization of foreign citizens and investigated their thoughts.

The mercenary system in the New Qin State is not going smoothly because of the rebellion. Regardless of the New Qin State with a population of 500 million, 280 million foreigners account for 80 million people and 30 mercenaries, but [-] mercenaries are at a low level. Stage, that is, still in the stage of captives or newly transformed, old transformed overseers, responsible for minerals and various marginal territories, where the division of responsibilities for contacting the enemy is not clear, they are consumables, fighting against death every day.

Of the remaining 50 mercenaries, more than 30 are on the navy side, and more than [-] are on the army side. They are also stationed or participating in battles in various places. On the depot line, tens of thousands of people guarded against the British and French on the border of Xindingzhou, and some people participated in the battle at the Moroccan base.

Zhang Siyuan transferred 3000 of the remaining 300 of the 800 mercenaries, plus the Han regiment, artillery regiment, and cavalry regiment. More than 6000 people left, plus the strength of a regiment of marines on his fleet, a total of [-] people were divided into the port of Ceuta.

The fleet took all the battleships of the remaining battleships he brought, a total of four cruisers, seventeen frigates, twenty-two destroyers, and thirteen transport ships, which followed them through the Spaniards. Trapped transport fleet.

Anyway, Xiao Nan and the others were left in a mess. He promoted a captain of Jin Qishun and his fleet in the port as the acting port fleet commander, with full authority to manage a cruiser, three frigates, and seven destroyers. The rest can go to sea to fight. The patrolling warships, the others are all immobile warships, or warships that have no possibility of repair here.

The port of Ceuta, the fortress of Ceuta, after half a month of attack and bombardment, has been dilapidated. After six thousand troops came here, they took control of a small port with a radius of about ten miles, but here It is very important that the opposite shore is only 128 nautical miles away, and the [-]mm shore artillery can bombard the opposite port within a few nautical miles, so the narrowest Gibraltar waterway can be properly controlled.

In other words, they have achieved phased results, controlling the Mediterranean waterways and Mediterranean trade. Although they did not reduce the number of British warships in the end, they paralyzed the Spaniards, an ally of the British, and could not play much role. They wiped out at least 180 ordinary battleships and nearly 30 main battleships of the Spaniards, and the British's [-] main fleet battleships and more than [-] auxiliary warships are also considered a lot of credit.

The problem is that no one reported to him the things and significance of what he did. Previously, Jin Qishun reported to him and he was promoted, but now he is cooperating with Xiao Nan, and Xiao Nan is not that kind of person. Zuo's contribution is undoubtedly underestimated, and even the influence produced cannot be transmitted to the new Qin State, and it will not have much effect on the new Qin State.

This is not what he wants. The problem is that in his current situation, it seems that he can't provoke the British. They can't get out. The British just don't want to call in because the cost is too high.

If the British want to fight in, in fact, as long as they can pay the price and lose hundreds of warships, they can still fight in, because they have no supplies here, and the losses cannot be replenished. Yes, they cannot be replenished. After returning to his ambiguous attitude, he could no longer get supplements. He looked at the port of Ceuta in the night, and suddenly, maybe he could do something with Lu Fang and the others, after all, he belonged to Lu Fang's fleet before.

But the main problem now is to open the blockade of the British. Maybe they can play the role of guerrilla warfare and continue to use the strategy when they rushed in, but this time they will offend the Portuguese.

Leaving a destroyer squadron and more than 3000 troops in the port, Zhang Siyuan began to provoke in the strait a week later, heading straight to the British fleet resting in the Portuguese port. The British fleet immediately went to battle. Immediately mobilized many warships to take over the port of the Portuguese, and confronted Zhang Siyuan and the others. They must seal the strait. After Zhang Siyuan and the others broke through last time, it caused the loss of almost a main fleet. The British still attach great importance to it. of.

But when he was actively trying to reduce the number of enemies and was about to break the British blockade, Wu Nan was furious in the Governor's Mansion of the Heroic Port of the Azores, and immediately ordered his subordinates to report the news of Zhang Siyuan's rebellion and self-reliance.

Wu Kejing, who received the news and tips, immediately reported the situation to the king and the crown prince. The crown prince ordered an investigation immediately and notified the ministers to hold a meeting. It is absolutely a matter of where the betrayal goes. Therefore, it must be discussed and dealt with severely.

If the British want to fight in, in fact, as long as they can pay the price and lose hundreds of warships, they can still fight in, because they have no supplies here, and the losses cannot be replenished. Yes, they cannot be replenished. After returning to his ambiguous attitude, he could no longer get supplements.
