My battleship is stronger than yours

Chapter 167 The first battle outside the town

Kuila Deng has been paying attention to the situation in the north with satellites. The Japanese Empire has dispatched the fifth transport fleet to the northern region, and Tang Xin's seventh mobile fleet has quietly reached the periphery, waiting for news from the army and ready to start a war at any time. , and the army has already entered the area outside the county, and sends out scouts from time to time to investigate the situation around the town. It has to be said that the town is now like an iron barrel. If it is attacked head-on, it is really not that easy to attack. In addition, the gate of the county town is surrounded by mountains on two sides and the sea on the back. It is impossible to go around.

Now the remaining two army units were still traveling through the starry night. They finally arrived at the outskirts of the town a week later and joined the first army unit. As soon as they met, they passed the news to Tang Xin. Kuala Deng suddenly thought of something here. He contacted Jiang Waner using the communication block and asked Jiang Waner's Jinlang ship to go north. According to the Jinlang ship's traveling speed, it only took a week to reach the northern waters. The Jinlang ship quietly If we go, no one will notice. Reinforcement of the siege troops and Tang Xin will be very good at that time.

After Jiang Waner received the order, she quietly left the fleet. Kuala Deng thought about it and felt uneasy, so she asked Teacher Xiang's Glory Ship to follow as a frigate. As soon as the two ships here left, Kua La Deng contacted her over there. Tang Xin told him that helpers had been prepared for him, and when the helpers arrived, they would launch an attack, and asked Tang Xin to notify the Army of the matter so that they could prepare. Tang Xin patted his chest and promised to arrange this. After that, contact was cut off.

This is the first time that Kuai Lalantern has been put on alone, and I feel a little worried. However, the war situation in the north is really not that easy to deal with. If Kuai Lalantern does not lend a hand to help, there will definitely be heavy losses over there, but there are absolutely no guarantees. Unexpectedly, when Kuaila Deng thought that his plan was foolproof, the Japanese ghost soldiers in the northern town moved first. On the fourth day, the city gate of the town opened, and groups of Japanese ghost warriors walked out of the town. , they received orders to prepare to attack the next adjacent town, and behind the warrior team, there were a large number of siege equipment, and even siege artillery was dragged out.

Said to be artillery, they were actually the cannons on the sailing battleships of the Japanese Empire. After those sailing battleships were eliminated, those naval guns were assigned to the samurai legions. Although those cannons still fired large iron bullets, the siege was unexpected. It is very easy to use. A few kilometers away from the city wall, the gun mount is fixed on the ground with large bars. It can be used as a firepower point to carry out continuous attacks on the town. Moreover, this distance is quite safe, and bows and arrows cannot be shot at all.

How could the army let the group of warriors walk away in such a big way? They immediately formed a battle formation and pounced directly on the warrior regiment to launch an attack. However, the Jinlang Ship and the Glory Ship were still some distance away from the town and could not support them at all. The siege had not started yet, and the Seventh Mobile Fleet was unable to show up. Therefore, all eyes were focused on the encounter that the Army suddenly launched.

I saw soldiers from both sides rushing towards each other like two ferocious beasts. There was no scene like on TV where they first formed a formation and then looked at each other and said harsh words. It was originally an encounter, and whoever got the upper hand would take the initiative. Moreover, the soldiers from the Hualong Empire knew what evil things these Japanese warriors had done in the city, and each of them became extremely jealous of their enemies. They ignored the arrows and rushed in with shields and sabers. Among the ranks of the Japanese warriors of the Japanese Empire, soldiers from both sides were fighting in a melee.

The two sides were furious as soon as the war started. The Hualong Empire sent a group of soldiers, about 5,000 people, while the Japanese Empire had about 7,000 warriors. The two sides may not be equal in number, but in On the scene, it was really evenly matched, and the soldiers of the Hualong Empire had a slight upper hand. At first, the warriors of the Japanese Empire were stunned by the soldiers of the Hualong Empire who suddenly appeared. They suffered a lot. After a meeting, the Japanese warriors fell down in rows. The Japanese archers behind them just shot randomly at the soldiers of the Hualong Empire. Later, when they reacted, they immediately retracted their front and stabilized their position.

The soldiers from the Hualong Empire did not attack head-on. Instead, they made a small interlude to divide and surround the small warrior troops that did not return to the battle in time. The large warrior troops surrounded them without attacking and allowed them to move. No, the scattered small groups of samurai troops on the periphery were no match for the Hualong Empire's sergeants. In less than two hours, they were completely wiped out. After those small groups of troops were eliminated, the scene on both sides was very tense. The number of people began to equalize. Since it was an encounter, those naval guns had no room to show their strength. Many of the artillery were snatched by the soldiers of the Hualong Empire, which suddenly caused heavy losses to the Japanese samurai troops.

Faced with these large groups of samurai troops, the commander did not choose to rush and fight. Instead, he asked the soldiers to surround them tightly, and then asked the throwers in the troops to throw Molotov cocktails, which were, to put it bluntly, filled with smelly oil. There is a piece of cloth inserted into the mouth of the bottle. When using it, first light the piece of cloth, and then throw it out, igniting all objects in a certain area. The front row of shield soldiers surrounding the warriors have already made preparations to erect the shield wall. The warrior legion had no idea what would happen next. They still tried their best to break through, but as soon as they rushed to the shield wall, the spearmen behind the shield soldiers used their spears to poke the group of warriors who broke through. After breaking through once, they lost a lot of people. For a while, they actually retreated again, not knowing what to do. Now they are surrounded. If they don't break out, they will not be able to return to the city. And the Japanese warriors in the city As soon as the city gate was opened, the crossbows on Hualong's side started firing at the city gate. Many of the warriors were shot dead before they even left the city gate.

Now the situation is such that the Japanese Empire cannot retreat or get out. The throwing soldiers on the outside of the encirclement are ready. The soldiers in the back row make way for them. They come behind the shield soldiers. , lit the cloth strips, and threw the Molotov cocktail directly into the encirclement. In an instant, the encirclement was filled with flames and screams. Many Japanese warriors could not bear the pain caused by the fire on their bodies, or they rushed towards the shield soldiers as if they were dead, and were then killed. Poke a hornet's nest, or pick up the knife and end it for yourself.

The encirclement shrinks smaller and smaller, and this is all due to the Molotov cocktail. This thing is small in size and has good lethality. Each slinger can carry ten of them. The smelly oil can be splashed. It can be touched by a little spark. None of the young samurai were hit by the Molotov cocktail, but the splash of smelly oil set them on fire. After these few hours of fighting, including those who were burned to death and those who were stabbed to death, there were less than a thousand Japanese warriors left. There were almost no soldiers on the Hualong Empire side, and some of them were even sprained by big rocks because the warriors were too excited to kill the Japanese ghosts and did not look at their feet.

Kuala Deng also watched the battle through the satellite. He lamented that this commander had two brushes. Not only did he divide and encircle the battlefield, but he also came to encircle the points and provide reinforcements. Kuala Deng pinched his chin with interest, "Huh?" This tactic looks familiar, I think I've seen it somewhere." Jiang Waner also sent a report at this moment. Her warship was approaching the outer reaches of the northern sea area and would be able to enter the battlefield in one day.

Less than an hour later, all the Japanese warriors who came out had been wiped out. A very small number of Japanese warriors chose to surrender. However, the sergeants of the Hualong Empire didn't seem to see it. They just raised their swords and guns. The stabbing did not leave a single person alive. When cleaning the battlefield, facing the charcoal everywhere, Hualong's soldiers had no desire to clean it up. They directly pushed the charred corpses to the side of the road with big shovels, and then poured some water on them. The stinking oil, along with the hacked corpses, was set alight again.

Now it was the turn of the Japanese guards in the city to sit still. Now their warriors could not leave the city at all and could only passively defend the city. And just now they received a report that the Hualong Empire had been discovered on the nearby sea transportation line. A naval fleet, and it is not a sail warship. Their warships are also billowing black smoke, and they are a little scared at the end. "Impossible! Impossible! Our warships were all given to us by the Ocean Council. Later, the drawings were given to us. We asked us to build it ourselves, how could they have iron-clad battleships?" Then he looked at the portrait of the battleship uncertainly, and said to himself, "This is not what the battleship the council gave us looks like. What a strange battleship it is."

However, the Japanese warden still put his hope in the reinforcements from the Japanese Empire. He gritted his teeth and said, "Damnable Hualong Empire, wouldn't it be good for you to just surrender like this? You must be the enemy of our great Japanese Empire. When our large army comes, we must kill the Hualong Empire until not a single blade of grass grows! It's so abominable!" Tang Xin also had a headache. He knew that these big guys drank that heavy oil thing like water, but he didn't Thinking that they are so drinkable, the previous training was all in the training sea area. It would not be a problem to refuel once and train for a day. However, since this voyage, the sweat on Tang Xin's forehead has not gone away. Every day, he receives reports of insufficient fuel. Report, the large barge transporting behind almost never stopped, but it still felt like it was not enough to feed this group of gluttons. It was filled with oil and it was said that it would run for five more days. The battleship insisted on burning incense for four days.

The captains said that they couldn't understand the upgrade items in the Phantom Machine. Tang Xin just said that as long as everything that can be upgraded is upgraded, it will be useful. This is good. I don't know if those guys have upgraded. What, the draft has become deeper, the speed has become slower, and the fuel consumption has also increased. The key is that he hasn't seen any clue yet. Ask the captain, the captain can't explain it. What makes him scratch his head even more is, Originally, it was only T-head shooting that could only be seen for a few kilometers. Now it can be fired. Now the artillery called the main gun can shoot very far at once, but the hit rate has decreased. Now he has the ability to hit people by chance. Feel.
