Lord of Ming Dynasty

The speed of the cruiser was at full speed, and the speed of 22 knots allowed this group of new Qin warships to catch up with the new fast destroyers. The frigates also had to pull far away, and the main battleship had already been thrown ten nautical miles away.

This is the new adjustment made by the New China Kingdom after the last enemy attack on the three frigates. Cruisers are used as cover and frigates are used as insurance. The frigates can calmly escape the enemy's interception, so that there is no loss, or the loss is very small. retreat to within the range that one's own side can counterattack.

The losses of the New Qin State this time were not small. Seven old destroyers of the same level as the frigates of the New China Kingdom were severely damaged, three were sunk, four were seriously injured, one main battleship was injured, and two frigates were hit. The boiler room lost all power, and could only be dragged out of the battlefield by two frigates, and began the return journey. Four severely injured frigate-type destroyers also returned under the cover of two destroyers. The fleet of fifty battleships , Nine ships were sunk by the enemy, three ships were sunk, six ships were injured, and four warships had to cover them to return. This time, almost one-third of the troops were removed.

The remaining 21 destroyers, eight frigates, and six main battleships have no intention of chasing them down. They have penetrated a hundred nautical miles into the enemy's defensive area. If they cannot retreat to a safe place before other enemy patrol fleets arrive, their own Depth defense sea area, which is about 160 nautical miles, then they will become the enemy's prey.

So after another half an hour of catching up, the fleet of New Qin State began to return.

And the two patrol fleets that He Qingyun received the support were still [-] nautical miles away, and it would take about four hours to rendezvous with them. It was already dark at that time, so he could only order to stop the support. The three fleets were separated by [-] nautical miles. Each of the sea patrolled this area, and their ten warships began to meet, eat, and then hang the enemy's fleet, watching the enemy leave the area they were patrolling.

Three days later, the supporting Puerto Rican fleet of 27 main warships, [-] frigates, eight cruisers, and fifty destroyers arrived in the waters of Grenada and joined their fleet. Six days later, Zhang Siyuan received the navy's report on the battle. The evaluation affirmed the cruiser's outstanding achievements in entanglement with the enemy or surprise attack on the enemy, or suppressing firepower at sea.

Zhang Siyuan didn't care about the provocation of the clowns like the New Qin State at all. The New Qin State has more than 600 warships. After more than half a year, the cooperation with the Dutch has restarted their research and development, although they are not inferior to the original talent. There are so many warships that are improved almost every six months, and a new generation of warships is released every three to five years.

It is not too difficult to improve the combat effectiveness of existing warships through a series of transformations, or on the basis of existing warships, refer to the current warships of various countries, imitate warships, and then make warships of the new Qin State. In the construction of warships, with the support of the Dutch, the number of warships built by the New Qin State has increased, and it has reached [-]% of the Portuguese, about [-] ships each year.

Originally, the New Qin State only had an annual output of [-] to [-] ships.

At this time, in the eyes of the New China Kingdom, the New Qin State was just a cowardly kingdom, and its strength was no longer in his eyes. Now the annual output of the New China Kingdom has reached 780 ships.

The first thousand 850 three chapters show their sense of existence

According to the analysis, even the old cruisers are very powerful. They can harass the enemy on the ocean, at least they can escape after the harassment. As long as they don't fall into the enemy's ambush, the effect of one cruiser or three ships in formation is better than dozens of patrol ships. The ships are all useful, even more useful than ten frigates.

According to this report, Zhang Siyuan ordered the docks to be vacated, and some of the docks were built with frigates, but the ratio dropped to [-] cruisers, [-] old improved cruisers, and [-] new cruisers. As for destroyers, Zhang Siyuan felt that there was no need to build them. , the remaining [-] docks will continue to free up [-] docks for the French to build main battleships and frigates, the remaining [-] docks will build the main battleships of the New China Kingdom, and the remaining dozens of docks will be used for repair and maintenance of warships, and for Develop new warships.

This process may take at least two years. Now the total number of warships in the New China Kingdom is not enough to cope with the defense of the increasingly large territorial waters, because too many warships were sold before, mainly because the number of warships that were eliminated was too large. Yes, and because of the route of elite soldiers, after the final reduction, there were only 300 warships. Now, 1000 destroyers, more than [-] frigates, and nearly [-] first-generation cruisers have been reduced for coastal defense. After joining the Coast Guard, there are more than [-] warships left, less than [-] warships.

The strength of the coast guard has been improved, and old warships have been included in the coast guard sequence in various places. The average number of warships in various places has decreased by 500 to 200, and the number of warships in various places has dropped from more than 180 to more than 210. This time In the future, the number of warships in various places will range from 700 to 210, which will further decline, especially in Morocco and Xinxi, which have a large number of destroyers, and then in Xindingyang. Their number of warships has dropped from the original [-] or so. To the number of only [-] ships.

The warships of the coast guard that were originally planned to be transferred from Russia, such as frigates and new destroyers, have been returned, and only one policy is implemented. Once the main force is in a decisive battle, the coast guard will increase the number of support and organize coast guard when there is a situation. The rights of the squadron can quickly join the main decisive battlefield in the form of a squadron, and the squadron will still return to the Coast Guard after the battle.

However, it is impossible to return the originally transferred personnel. Most of the new Coast Guard personnel are recruited from retired naval personnel, naval academies, schools, and some marines, army, and civilians. It is to train more personnel with practical naval combat experience for the navy, so that the main fleet can be replenished in time when there is a war in the future.

The new additions or the loss of personnel caused by the retirement of a large number of naval and army personnel due to the sale of warships, now select those who are still elite and new blood personnel to add in, which improves the combat effectiveness of the main fleet, plus advanced warships, Now it is no longer something that can be defeated by numbers.

Maybe a naval battle is like a football game, maybe an old style warship can sink a most advanced main battleship through a sneak attack or other methods, but in a large-scale naval battle, it is still the advanced nature and power of the battleship, Speed, defense, firepower and other factors.

Tactics, production capacity, and direction of implementation were determined. The New China Kingdom quickly started construction, adjusted the direction of naval development, and still insisted on advancedness, large tonnage, and speed as the core of warship development. With a small number of warships, A small number of naval personnel killed a large number of enemy warships and personnel, establishing victory in one fell swoop.

The New China Kingdom is adjusting the order, but the provocation of the New Qin Kingdom is inexplicable, but the counterattack must be carried out. If there is no counterattack this time, the New Qin Kingdom will make progress. Therefore, it is proposed that the New Dingyang Prefecture send a fleet to attack the New Qin Kingdom. For a large-scale counterattack, Xinding Yangzhou dispatched a total of 210 frigates, [-] cruisers, and [-] frigates. The main fleet dispatched [-] main battleships, [-] frigates, and [-] cruisers. A total of [-] seven warships intercepted, wiped out, and captured the fleet patrolling the coast of the New Qin State.

The battle started 17 days after the last New Qin attack No. [-]. The eighty frigates were divided into several squads, each with seven warships, and the remaining odd number of battleships matched with five cruisers, and two frigates were used to protect the frigates that lure the enemy Retreat, and the battleships of the main fleet behind are used to deal with the actions after the enemy's main fleet is dispatched.

The whole process went through precise calculations, reasoning, evolution, and was put into practice. The warships patrolling the periphery of the New Qin State were intercepted and attacked dozens of times in one day.

The patrolling coastline of New Qin State is not long, about [-] nautical miles offshore, and their patrol route covers almost [-] nautical miles along the coast of Grenada Island. Several small islands near Venezuela, including Grenada, have always been considered by the New Qin Kingdom to be theirs, and they want the New China Kingdom to return them.

How could it be possible, how could the new state of Qin have the qualifications, now it is whoever defeated it, so there is no historical problem, if there is a problem, it is because these islands are directly on top of the Venezuelan port not far away, and they are still stationed With the fleet of the New China Kingdom, they can attack their naval ports at any time. This is the biggest problem.

The patrols of the New Qin Kingdom are actually similar, and because their patrol warships are even older, and even have the original ironclad ships, their patrol fleet cannot compete with the patrol ships of the New China Kingdom, so they dispatched destroyers to attack the patrols of the New China Kingdom The fleet is the fleet that is closest to He Qingyun and the others.

The patrol of ten warships made them feel too threatened, so they dispatched fifty warships, but obviously, their warships could not defeat a single cruiser of the New China Kingdom.

They also had cruisers, but they were a bit behind, and most of them were lost in the French attack. The cruisers left behind also lost a lot in the pursuit of the British, and the cruisers that came back were bought by the Dutch. Lost in battle with the British went.

Since they got closer to the Dutch this time, and betrayed the Kingdom of Han and joined the Western world, they also have a meaning to show their existence in the Western world. I am still useful. At least I can disgust the New China Kingdom. Although my role is not great, it can also contain the forces of one aspect of the New China Kingdom, even a new Dingyang Prefecture. This is the purpose of Zhao Shuai and the others to attack the patrol fleet of the New China Kingdom.

The first thousand 850 chapters give you a lesson

The patrol fleet of the New Qin Kingdom is also patrolled by three ships. Due to the increase of warships, they patrol more places. The number of patrols is intensive, and the number of patrolling warships is intensive. This time they know that the New China Kingdom will definitely retaliate. Therefore, escort patrols were added again, and the patrol squad was also increased to a patrol squad of six old warships, accompanied by three frigates.

Since the international situation of the new Qin State is not good, they go to England, Spain, the Netherlands, mainly to the Netherlands and Portugal. French merchant ships are not safe, so they have to use fleet escorts. Those with fleet escorts are at least free from pirate harassment. , the British will basically not attack them now, and the Spaniards have stopped fighting with them for colonies in South America, so there will not be too many problems, let alone the Netherlands, although the Dutch are now I have turned around and don't like the Han people very much, but I am still more friendly to people from the new Qin Kingdom, so the two sides can continue to cooperate.

This has caused the fleet of the new Qin state to be not all in the mainland. At least [-] warships are protecting the caravans and patrolling their own routes throughout the Atlantic Ocean. Of the [-] ships, the main fleet only has about [-] warships at home. Apart from defending the New China Kingdom, they have no enemies, so most of the main fleet is at home.

The New China Kingdom is coming, they have known it for a long time, this is not a secret, and the New China Kingdom did not want to keep it a secret from them. The patrol team approached the new Qin Kingdom from three directions in the wide sea area of ​​150 nautical miles.

The battles between the two sides have their own winners and losers. The main reason is that there are a large number of novices on the frigate. At the same time, there are many Han immigrants and foreign immigrants who have no combat experience. Only a few people are the original veterans who are responsible for commanding them and Most of them are veterans who have just joined the army for three years, and some of them don't even have much experience in naval warfare.

And the New Qin State also applied many newcomers like this to cultivate their combat experience and operational experience, so there was almost nothing to watch in the first five days of fighting. The frigates went up to fight, and then the New China Kingdom dispatched the following cruisers to destroy them. Generally speaking, the New China Kingdom was better.

On the first day, the New China Kingdom lost fifteen frigates, seven destroyers, and the New Qin Kingdom lost ten old warships, five destroyers, and one frigate.

The next day, the New China Kingdom lost seven frigates, three destroyers, and one frigate, and the New Qin Kingdom lost thirty old warships, eight destroyers, and four frigates.

On the third day, the front line of the New China Kingdom finally reached [-] nautical miles from the coastline of the New Qin Kingdom. The New Qin Kingdom dispatched a hundred destroyers. frigates, seven destroyers, seven frigates, one cruiser was injured, the enemy lost eight old battleships, seventeen destroyers, ten frigates, two main battleships, and retreated twenty nautical miles.

The two sides towed away the injured warships, cleaned up the battlefield, rescued a large number of people who fell into the water, and then confronted each other until the night, and both returned to the anchorage or their respective ports.

On the fourth day, the two sides fought again. The new Qin State dispatched more than 100 main battleships and frigates in the main fleet. The flotilla of cruisers, frigates and frigates that came out resisted when the fleet of frigates arrived. When they saw the cruisers from the New China Kingdom approaching, they hurriedly gathered the fleet.

The cruiser did not chase them, but gathered the patrol fleet, and then continued to approach the coast of the Xinqin State on the sea surface with a width of [-] nautical miles. Destroyers, frigates, and frigates on both sides fought each other. While retreating, they retreated to the coastline forty nautical miles. At this time, the main fleet dispatched from Xindingyangzhou of the New China Kingdom arrived.

The main fleets of the two sides fought again for a day at [-] to [-] nautical miles. The New Qin Kingdom increased its troops again, and the New Huaxia Kingdom also increased its troops again by [-] warships, [-] frigates, [-] destroyers, and [-] frigates. , eight cruisers, and two main battleships.

In the evening, the two sides increased their troops to each other, and the new Qin Kingdom lost 33 destroyers, 25 frigates, [-] old warships, and [-] main battleships. Fifty frigates, forty destroyers, seventeen frigates, eight cruisers, and two main battleships were lost. The other warships were still pressed at [-] to [-] nautical miles from the coastline of the new Qin State and did not retreat.

The wounded warships were brought back by both sides, and then other reinforcement warships arrived. At dawn the next day, Xinqin dispatched all the main fleet warships at home, all coast guard warships, about [-] warships, The Kingdom of New China dispatched almost all [-] warships of the Coast Guard and [-] warships of the Main Fleet to fight the New Qin Kingdom on the fifth day.

The New Qin State was finally beaten back to the port, and outside were the frigates and frigates of the Coast Guard of the New China Kingdom. In the previous naval battle between the two sides, the New Qin State lost almost all of the Coast Guard's 150 battleships. Battleships, [-] battleships of the main fleet.

Although the New China Kingdom suffered a lot, nearly two hundred frigates were sunk, fifty destroyers were sunk, thirty frigates were sunk, ten cruisers were sunk, two main battleships were sunk, nearly 150 Four frigates were injured, forty destroyers were injured, 28 frigates were injured, seven cruisers were injured, and eight main battleships were seriously injured. The losses were not small, but the main force of this battle was the Coast Guard, so there was nothing to say.

The frigates and cruisers suffered the most losses in the main fleet. In the battle against the New Qin State, they played a very important role in facing the nearly [-] battleships of the New Qin State's main fleet.

This battle has tempered the combat effectiveness of the coast guard. At the same time, it has also allowed the main fleet of Xinding Yangzhou, which has not participated in the war for many years and has not experienced naval battles, to experience a war test. The Kingdom knew that when Britain and France were fighting in full swing, and when the naval battle between Britain and the Netherlands was very fierce, they provided warships most of the time and received various supplies and gold coins. They had no combat experience for several years.

Therefore, the New Kingdom of China has to train troops through the weak country of New Qin.

After the battle, the Coast Guard shrank to [-] warships, and the frigates only patrolled ten to twenty nautical miles from the coast, and no longer served as the main patrol force. Small frigates, and more than [-] cruisers that performed well defeated almost all the main cruisers of the nearly [-] main force fleets of the New Qin Kingdom.

Chapter 850 and five of the sluggish new state of Qin

Those who were beaten could only hide in the port, and the warships of the main fleet of the other escorting caravans did not dare to return to the port. Although the main force of the new Qin State this time only lost 150 warships, and not many seventy or eighty warships were injured, their overall There are more than 700 warships on the island. In addition to the [-] escort warships outside, there are [-] main battleships in the house, but this time they were really scared.

Except for those who cannot go out and those injured in front of the Coast Guard, they have all been wiped out. More than 300 main battleships of the Coast Guard have been completely wiped out, and more than 300 old warships and more than [-] outdated warships have also been wiped out. Scattered and hid in the port, not daring to come out.

Although the New China Kingdom also lost more than 300 frigates, more than 100 and dozens of destroyers and frigates, and [-] cruisers, it made the New Qin Kingdom no longer dare to come out. how many?The warships of Xinding Yangzhou are just the overseas territories of the New China Kingdom, how many warships do they have in their main fleet?

210 warships, how many coast guard warships?However, there are about [-] ships, which are about the same as the Coast Guard of the New Qin State. This is mainly due to the mutual defense between the two. I have to balance as many as you have.

This time, the coast guard of the New Qin State was completely wiped out, and the coast guard of the New China Kingdom still had less than half of its battleships left. There were not many remaining coastal defense frigates, but it happened to be replaced with new frigates and cruisers for patrol and coastal defense.

However, this time the number of main battleships of the New China Kingdom has also decreased, and now is the time to replace them, but obviously it cannot satisfy all the fleets. This time, about 110 old frigates and cruisers were lost, and there were even ten more. The main battleship, and Xinding Yangzhou has only three main battleships and ten frigates launched at the same time, and can only supplement thirteen warships, so the main fleet of Xinding Yangzhou has only a hundred or so warships, plus the following There are only more than [-] warships in the water.

This time the loss is not small, the key is that many battleships have to be separated and merged into the coast guard. After such a toss, there are still 61 newest main battleships, ten newest frigates, and only [-] newest cruisers. The remaining eight newest warships, plus the newly launched thirteen warships, means that the main fleet of the New Dingyang Prefecture of the New China Kingdom to protect such a long territory on both sides of the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean now has only [-] warships available.
