I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

Among the Great Lakes, Daming does not have his own boat, so he can only be beaten and cannot fight back. This is indeed a big problem.

But they don't know that there is a way of building boats called dumpling.

Years later, their conjugate father and son demonstrated such a skill after Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Japanese, and now, Ming has mastered it.

Green Bay was a city that was captured by the Ming Dynasty a long time ago. Almost at the beginning of the declaration of war against Britain, the 17th Armored Division led by Qian Luojun quickly attacked this small city with a population of only 2.

This move was hidden among other feints and did not attract the attention of the British.

The reason why the Commander of the Northern Yindu wanted to win such an unremarkable small town at the first time was because of Green Bay's unique geographical environment.

His Majesty Zhu Fugui personally bestowed the Chinese name "Xinsu" on this place.

Xinsu is Xinsuzhou, and Suzhou is Jiuquan.

Zhu Fugui bestowed Jiuquan, a place name familiar to later generations of Chinese because of a certain base, to Green Bay, and naturally placed high hopes on him.

Chapter 659

Apparently, Daming also decided to launch a satellite by sailing on dry land in Xinsu, and make a fortune silently.

To put it simply, the Daming Royal No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] Shipyards were transferred from the technical backbone, and the Daming Royal No. [-] Shipyard was established in Xinsu.

Thanks to the unique terrain conditions of Xinsu, the long Sturgeon Bay Peninsula can protect the shipbuilding equipment and docks built in Xinsu Port from the attack of the British Navy.

In fact, the British did organize several water strikes against Xinsu.

However, trapped by the dense shore artillery on both sides of the harbor and the mines blocking the port, the British had to leave in dismay after losing two gunboats.

From the beginning to the end, they never got a glimpse of what happened in Xinsu Port.

If the British also have reconnaissance planes, they should at least be able to find that a simple railway from Xinzheng to Xinsu has been quickly completed.

A steady stream of iron and steel, seemingly inexhaustible, was transported from Fengdu Industrial Zone, Xinlu Industrial Zone, and Xinzheng Industrial Zone.

It's a pity that the British, the British sailors, didn't know anything, and spent eight happy months carefree.

In the early morning of February 11, [-], Dewu.

The momentum of offense and defense is also different.

Fifteen battleships lined up on the lake to the east of Grain Beach, and the orange-red flames from the guns of the battleships shone in the dawn.

Of course, it must be a bit strenuous to build a Shenzhou-class battleship in eight months.

The flagship of the Daming Five Lakes Navy is an "Infinite Loyalty Class" cruiser - the "Leader's Will".

The tonnage is about 7500 tons, which is close to the second ship Dingyuan and Zhenyuan in history.

At present, the tonnage of Daming ships from high to low is "Shenzhou class", "Infinite Loyalty class", "Yunnan class", "Liaodong class", "Zhenjiang class", "Tenglongshan class", etc., as well as those for special purposes, A battleship named after a person.

Therefore, it can be seen that the "Leader's Will" is definitely a main battleship capable of fighting and resisting.

In addition, the other warships are the smaller "Zhenjiang-class" and "Liaodong-class", as well as a medium-sized troop carrier watching the battle from a distance.

Relying on its thick armor and solid skin, the "Leader's Will" approached as close as [-] kilometers, while the other smaller and more agile destroyers and gunboats swam left and right by taking advantage of their maneuverability.

The huge roar of gunfire from 15 iron-clad warships also came and went one after another at dawn.

The cruiser "Leader's Will" in the center roared with 152mm Krupp naval guns and fired high-explosive shells weighing more than 45 kilograms at the naval fortress.

After a shot, the gunners in the No. [-] main turret of the cruiser "Leader's Will" were busy again.

Since there is no automatic bomb lifter yet, the naked-chested strong men must load the high-explosive bombs into the chambers with bare hands.

After improvements in Krupp technology, this naval gun can achieve a rapid fire rate of 5 shells per minute.

This is a huge test for the physical fitness of the loader.

Fortunately, from walrus meat to snow crab, from pork to fat beef, what the Ming Navy needs most is protein and fat.

Compared with the Shenzhou theater and the Zuochu army, who would occasionally eat canned Japanese peaches that had leaked and deteriorated, the Northern Yin theater was somewhat cheaper.

The logistics support capability of the Northern Yin Headquarters of the Great Ming Dynasty was far superior to that of the Wadao Governor's Mansion and the newly created Heishui and Anton Governor's Mansions.

As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while.

The young sailors who eat imperial food, wear imperial clothes, listen to imperial instructions, and receive care for every detail have long forgotten the fact that they are tired.

The rapid secretion of adrenaline and dopamine made them burst out with strength far beyond training.

Accompanied by a loud bang, dozens of black and reddish puffs pierced the sky and flew towards the grain lake beach with a huge howling sound. The moment the shell landed on the British pier, it exploded. A huge crater with a depth of 6 meters and a depth of 3 meters.

In order to cooperate with the barrage shooting from the water surface, twenty "Fierce Dragon" aircraft and more than forty "Fathead Fish" airships circled here.

The former is like a knight in a red war robe, chic and agile, while the latter is like a strongman who destroys a city, which is heartbreaking.

Together they dropped one high bomb after another, blooming gorgeous flowers on the British base.

Of course, compared to the artillery fire of ships, the power of bombs dropped by aircraft is much worse.

Moreover, compared with the fruitful results achieved in China, it is often difficult for airplanes and airships to achieve decisive results in the face of the concrete fortifications built by the British.

But it is very useful for bombing British warships moored on the docks like living targets.

Daming chose very early in the morning on Monday for this sneak attack.

After months of calm, the British sailors have long been used to going to the town on Sunday nights to have fun with the girls.

This morning, the attendance rate of the sailors on the warship was less than [-]%.

These miscellaneous warships, which are not elite ships themselves, were quickly damaged severely under the attack of heavy artillery and aerial bombs, lost their combat effectiveness, and even sank on the spot.

This time, attacking east and west, bypassing the North American version of the "Maginot Line of Defense", and raiding from the water, it was a surprise attack conducted by the General Staff of the Northern Yindu Command and Envoy Division, seconded by Major General Jiang Biao, and nodded by Marshal Zhu.

Although it is not difficult to tear the Milwaukee-Madison line of defense from the front with the armored strength of the Northern Yin theater, the unnecessary casualties that have to be paid are objective.

Since the Germans could bypass the Maginot Line from the Black Forest, it is of course also possible for Ming to bypass it by water.

After the trilogy of "The Return of the Great Sage" military exercise, the Ming Marine Corps has gained a lot of experience in landing on the beach.

According to the calculations of several exercises, under the bombardment of aircraft and naval guns, the enemy's firepower can generally be weakened by more than 70%, which can minimize the counterattack of infantry after landing.

Although according to the previous repeated investigations of the Milwaukee Naval Base by the aviation column, the British did not seem to have considered that the Ming Dynasty would break through from the water at all, and only equipped with symbolic fortifications on the lake side of the Naval Base.

However, Mo Hangbo, the young commander of the Five Lakes Fleet, still stubbornly ordered a comprehensive bombardment of the lakeshore.

Xiaolong and Fathead Fish attacked in depth to cover the landing of the marines.

Although Lake Michigan is called a lake, its wind and waves are not inferior to inland seas such as the Mediterranean Sea.

Milwaukee is far less developed than Chicago and Detroit, also because the west bank and the north end of the east bank of Lake Michigan are rocky cliffs, while most of the south bank and east bank are composed of sandy beaches and dunes.

Therefore, compared with the British counterattack, it was the harsh natural conditions that caused more obstacles to the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

In the undulating sea, officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty took the landing craft and sailed bumpily all the way to the coast of Grain Beach.

In these brand new angler kayaks, soldiers could clearly hear the drone of planes overhead.

Through the gaps in the low clouds, some red knights can be clearly seen soaring like eagles.

The roaring shelling of warships came from behind, and then turned into an explosion in front of us.

These sights and sounds brought endless confidence to these pioneer warriors.

They may be very young, and they may have just crossed the sea and came to Daming for a few years, but they will never doubt that the victory of this war will belong to Daming.

The soldiers held the most advanced Dewu ten-year rifles in their hands.

There is no major breakthrough in the design of this rifle, and it is still a rifle imitating the Mauser family.

But in terms of quality and performance, it has made a qualitative leap compared to the Dewu two-year rifle.

Because it was officially put into production in the second half of last year, only half of the Class A divisions have been able to change their outfits.

But with the efficiency of Daming Arsenal, a full refit will definitely be completed within this year.

The Decade Rifle, while a good rifle, is not waterproof.

There is also some sand on the rocky lake shore, which will affect the performance of the firearm.

So before landing on the beach, the soldiers had carefully put the condoms on their guns.

The method is crude, but very effective.

At this time, when the landing craft was lifted up by the waves of the lake, the soldiers on the boat could already faintly see the steel bars exposed from the blasted French concrete on the beach filled with gunpowder.

The British army lingered in the ruins, unable to organize effective shooting at all.

Even sporadic fire could not prevent the brave and fearless Ming from boarding the camp first.

As the previous dozen or so rubber boats slammed into the lake beach, nearly a hundred soldiers jumped onto the beach full of sharp rocks and thorns.

A regiment of British sailors stationed here, trying to rebuild a defensive position, quickly put down the sandbags in their hands and retreated hastily after a brief exchange of fire.

"Our department has occupied the enemy's docks, lighthouses, and sending rooms, please give instructions!"

At [-]:[-] in the morning, the first camp sent a signal to the flagship conning tower.

Chapter 660 Great Wall of England

After boarding the battalion first and successfully controlling the pier, more than 27 officers and soldiers of the 8000th Division of the Northern Yindu Commander Division on the troop carrier "Yu Shaobao" had already polished their steel guns.

The 27th Division is a Type B light infantry division.

Since the secret meeting of the Three Emperors Alliance determined their respective combat obligations, the royal troops of the Ming Dynasty have expanded twice from 40 to 88, and from 88 to 122 million.

The 27th Division of the young Northern Yindu Commander Division was newly established during the second round of military expansion.

Although the Ministry of War and the Grand Marshal's Office have repeatedly emphasized that Divisions A, B, and C are just different in their division of tasks, they are all good men who serve the emperor and bleed for Zhu Xia, and there is no distinction between high and low, but the 27th Division has always held its breath.

Today, they finally had the chance to prove themselves.

Type B divisions are also combat divisions.

It's completely different from a breeder who only knows how to raise pigs!

Teacher Liang Weixian held up the tweeter and made the final mobilization to the comrades who lived together day and night:

"Dear comrades-in-arms, the British ghosts and animals ravaged Yinzhou, slaughtered the people, and occupied the dove's nest. We, the soldiers of the Xia Dynasty, have the duty of protecting the environment and the people, and the righteousness of revenge and hatred. Teacher Yang has told you about these things. People won't say much.

What I want to say is that for a long time, many people, including some colleagues in our division, have felt that our Type B division has poor resources, backward equipment, and small division organization, which is a foil for Type A division.

But I want to tell you that your physical fitness when you enlisted does not represent your current physical fitness, and your cultural level when you enlisted does not represent your current cultural level!

And light infantry will not be eliminated, infantry will always be an indispensable king in land warfare!

Earlier, Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of War revealed that five expeditionary divisions would be selected for the Northern Yin Theater.

I dare not ask or think about where, when, and how the expedition division will recruit, but what I know is that among the five quotas, our 27th division should have a position!

In my hometown, Hu Jian, there is an old saying, which is "Three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work"!

Our 27th division has been waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to prove ourselves!

We have been waiting for this opportunity for a year, think about it, how we got here this year!

Eat more, sweat more, train more!

Today, before this fortress where the Anglo-French allied forces are the most powerful, we must hand over the testimonials that will satisfy the Emperor, Zhang Shilang, and the people of Ming Dynasty!

Who the hell gave me the chain, I will let him clean the toilet for the next month!disembark! "

Liang Weixian waved his hand, and the boys of the 27th Division went out to sea like dragons, jumped off the "Yu Shaobao" one after another, and stepped on the pontoon bridge that had been built before boarding the camp.

Although the mobilization before the battle is very encouraging, but it is the first time to participate in the battle, most of the recruits are still holding rifles and their faces are tense.

Fortunately, the solid training allowed them to at least follow the military actions practiced repeatedly in the "Royal Army Military Exercise Code" without saying a word.

They know that at this very moment, the 3rd Division, 13th Division, and 23rd Division, which are the ace armored division and ace motorized infantry division, are taking advantage of the chaos to launch a frontal attack on the Milwaukee-Madison line of defense. shelling.

Who can plant the Sun and Moon flag of Ming Dynasty on the roof of the command building of the fortress in the first time, this is a competition related to honor.

Of course, the so-called competition can only be a healthy competition.

If you don't want to be punished in the post-war military investigation, or even be handed over to a military court, it's better not to do stupid things like using your life to win military exploits.

Liang Weixian is very clear about this.

Due to the small number of people who boarded the camp first, and also carried engineering equipment such as pontoon bridges, cables, and ground nails, it was impossible to completely clear the east of the fortress.

Therefore, the first duty of the officers and soldiers of the 27th Division is to eliminate the enemy, and the second is to pursue and attack fortified positions.

Especially those British sailors who were hiding on the wrecked ship and resisted.
