Tomorrow

“New tomorrow ( to find the latest chapter!

Chapter 49 So it turns out, but so

Moire stood tall, holding a binoculars to watch Lai Guorao’s fleet leave.

After putting down the binoculars, he always said to Lao Zhou, “Now, here is our man who has the final say.”

Lao Zhou said with a sad face, “Master, until tomorrow at the latest, this island will be surrounded by those warships. We can’t go.”

Yun Wen smiled and said: “This effect is what I want. If I don’t endure a war, how can my Yun guards gain a foothold in the army again.”

Lao Chang watched the last sunset glow gradually darkening, and said in a deep voice, “I don’t know how many of the 5,800 people on the island can go back alive.”

Moire said faintly: “If you go back alive, your Majesty will have one available talent, and if you go back two, you will have two talents. Those who cannot become talents will die if they die. The wealth of the Lantian dynasty is not so easy to enjoy. .

This island is surrounded by mountains on both sides and a cliff on the other. The only place that is really convenient to attack is the harbor. If the beach cannot be guarded, we will retreat to the harbor. If the harbor can’t be guarded, we will retreat to the jungle. The jungle can’t hold us anymore. Just go up the mountain.

In short, we can survive until General Han’s fleet comes over. If we can’t, we will die! “

Moire doesn’t seem to care so much about his own life. After Lao Zhou heard this, his heart was so bitter. Moire does not care, he can’t care… But, everyone is trapped on the island now, even if they want to run. There is nowhere to run.

The Yun clan people have a very heavy gambling nature. From the emperor Yun Zhao to Yun Yang, to Yun Fu, Yun Meng, Yun Hu, Yun Leopard, Yun Jiao, Yun Xiao, they are all like this. Now, Yun Wen has begun to gamble.

The so-called demand for wealth and danger seems unreasonable for the Yun family, but it is precisely because the Yun family is a royal family that they are unwilling to abandon the wealth, and they are more concerned with preserving wealth and privileges than anyone else.

They knew that if other families fell, they would also fall, and if the Yun family fell, many people would die.

Moire thought that the war would not start until dawn at the earliest, but the British obviously did not think so. After the Lai Guorao fleet left, the British fleet approached the island.

Although the sea had begun to ebb, they still refused to give up. The sampans carrying troops descended into the sea densely, and rushed towards the island under the bright moonlight on the sea.

At the same time, the huge warships had all turned their hulls, the gun windows were constantly spitting out fire, and the heavy shells smashed down like a whistle in the moonlight.

This was just a deterrent. The shells destroyed the wooden buildings on the harbor and smashed the ground into deep pits one after another. On the soft beach, the lethality of solid shells was very limited.

Momo took a gun against her shoulder, threw a cigarette in her mouth to light it, and said to a group of people in Yunzhen: “The war has begun.”

Lao Zhou saw Moiré’s legs trembling, but this guy’s hands were steady and he didn’t shake at all when he lit the cigarette. This look is incomparable to his father. However, considering his age, Lao Zhou felt a little bit in his heart. warm.

Lai Guorao did not go far. Except for the severely injured and slow-speed Mangshan ship, after entering the Malacca Strait with the transport ship, he returned to Wei with his two ironclad ships and eight three-masted warships. The waters of the island of St.

There are many islands here, West Island is not the largest of them, but because it is too close to Bangladesh, it was used as a springboard for the British to explore India.

At dawn, Lai Guorao and his fleet arrived quietly on an island. There were no people on this island. The whole island was covered by dense forest. In the early morning, you can see countless seabirds leaving the island to hunt in the sea. food.

The fleet glided across the slightly yellowed sea, and finally anchored on the back of the island to a stop.

Seeing Lai Guorao’s leisurely appearance, Lieutenant Zhao Rong said anxiously: “I don’t know what happened to Colonel Yunwen and the others. The war must have already begun by this time.”

Lai Guorao shook his head and said, “The moonlight was bright last night, and the British won’t wait until dawn before doing anything.”

“Commander, do you think Moire and the others can make it?”

“If you fail, you have to hold on.”

“Are we waiting here?”

“I’m here waiting for the Portuguese…”

“Colonel Yunwen and they…”

“Climb the path you choose to finish it.”

“What if?”

“There is no accident. War is an overall strategic thing, and sometimes what should be discarded must be discarded. The goal of the empire is India, and the removal of the British is only a part of the overall strategy. The French , The Dutch, the Spanish, and the Portuguese are all part of this strategy.

General Han intends to use this battle to determine that our Ming empire will divide up India’s power, and how much we can occupy in the future depends entirely on whether our battle will bring pain to the European countries.

If there are fewer competitors, it will be more advantageous for us. “

Zhao Rong leaned on the ship’s side and looked down at the small fish swimming by the side of the ship and said to Lai Guo: “I always feel that General Han’s plot is too great. We have just cleared Java Island, and she can’t wait to start. Build an advanced school on the island.

Not only that, she has already started gathering the Daming people scattered in Nanyang, and preparing to build Java into a Nanyang center is already very obvious. I am worried that if we ignore the life and death of Colonel Moire, it will affect General Han’s presence in Nanyang. The execution of the grand plan. “

“Don’t worry about this. Under the general trend, personal resistance will hardly have any effect. The proposal for building Java has been approved by the Congress. Your Majesty has already used the seal and the Minister of State has also signed it. It has entered the implementation stage, you see. So, within half a year, those fishermen who have no land in the southeast of Ming Dynasty will flock to them.

They have the custom of going to Nanyang, and they also know how rich the land of Nanyang is.

In the past, they risked a life of nine deaths and were willing to come to Nanyang to seek life. Now, under the blessing of the empire, their minds about going to Nanyang will definitely be more active.

What we can do is to give them more space for them to display their talents. “

Zhao Rong let out a sigh of relief, “Going south and going north. This is the state policy that the empire is actively advancing. And the first wave of baby booms after the Ming war has arrived. Is this your Majesty’s doing this to make room for the newborn children?”

Lai Guo said with a smile: “When I was in Yushan Academy, I heard from gentlemen that so far, Daming’s population is still too small. Mr. Gu from the academy believes that Daming needs a population of 20,000 to have a balanced possession. Our land now.

If there are not so many people, a lot, a lot of land will be wasted.

According to Mr. Gu’s prediction, it would take at least a hundred years for Daming to have a population of more than 30,000. However, Mr. Liang didn’t think so. He believed that with the rise of the empire’s grain output, the generalization of medical resources, and the nationalization of the stable woman profession, The population of Daming has risen from the current 160,000 to 30,000, which will become a reality in the next 30 to 40 years.

Therefore, no matter what the domestic dispute is, the duty of us soldiers is to open up our territory! Try to seize resources as much as possible. “

The conversation between Lai Guorao and Zhao Rong was then dispersed by the sea breeze.

No traces were left.

However, after the moiré repelled another round of the British beach landing, his legs no longer tremble, because he found that they had the latest guns and it was not difficult to kill those British people.

He has left the forefront of the war, sitting in the study of the Governor’s Mansion that originally belonged to Raymond, and began to carefully check the rifle in his hand, listening to what the armorer said by the way.

The rifle in his hand is named China Type II rifle. This rifle uses copper shell bullets, while the China Type One rifle uses paper shell bullets.

Although these two firearms sound like sister firearms, there is a fundamental difference in effectiveness, especially after the advancement of the research and development of the mine mercury, coupled with long firing pins and rifling, the performance of the Chinese Type II rifle has been significantly improved. improve.

This is not only reflected in the range and accuracy, but the speed of loading ammunition has also been greatly improved.

Compared with the British beak and flintlock front-mounted gun, the Chinese Type II rifle can choose more combat methods. Among them, only the combat mode of various postures makes the survival rate of an infantry drastically changed.

The distance of one hundred paces, this is the range of the front-loaded gun, and the China Type II rifle has shown extremely high lethality at a distance of one hundred paces, and the 50-step flintlock is commonly used in the shooting distance in China. Under the second gun, it is simply the slaughter distance.

After listening to the ordnance officer’s words, Moiré discovered for the first time that she was so powerful. The instructors in the military academy were all deceptive… what the enemy is strong, what the enemy is cunning, what to say… In short, you can’t underestimate the enemy. .

Moiré suddenly felt comfortable, leaned her body on the chair, habitually put her feet on the table, and said to the old man, “We are sure to win this battle.”

Lao Zhou looked at Yun Wen coldly and said, “Looking at you, how does the old slave think that we are going to lose?”

Moire laughed and said, “Lao Tzu’s gun…”

“That is the gun of the empire, the young master is just a gunner…Look at this scar on my face, it is under the condition that our weapon crushed the enemy, I was taken by a thirteen or fourteen-year-old rogue To cut it ~www.wuxiax.com~ If it weren’t for the master to give me the good medicine assigned to him, my bones would be rotten.

Before the war, the master regarded the heroes in the world as nothing, but when fighting, even if the enemy in front of him is very weak, the master is always cautious, cautious, and cautious, and never said he won before the battle is over. If it’s decided.

Master, only by killing the last enemy can you say that we have won. As long as your enemy still has a breath, don’t say anything, don’t say victory.

After returning to Yushan, the old slave will report this matter to the master. “

Moment heard it and jumped up and said, “Uncle Zhou, you are going to kill me.”

Lao Zhou said coldly: “First of all, Master, don’t kill me. There are still three children in my family. Two are underage. I don’t want them to have no father.”
