Qi Yu took advantage of the timing and used fire attacks to annihilate King Yong's surface warships in one fell swoop, creating a textbook-level classic battle.
The naval battle of Tuen Mun was a victory in the first battle.
From an overall perspective of the entire war, one of the three layers of defense at Tuen Mun has been broken, leaving the two major threats of land-based artillery and defensive musketeers.
Any great victory is something to be happy about, so everyone in the Qiong Army was immersed in a sea of joy.
Originally, Harry wanted to boast about his great contribution, but when he learned that it was Qi Yu who used his ultimate move to end the battle, he swallowed the nonsense that slipped to his lips.
Go down.
After a short rest, everyone held a meeting to discuss the next military plan.
"Although we took advantage of the weather, we also suffered a lot due to the bad weather. In my opinion, it is best to try to break through Tuen Mun as soon as possible and rest on land." Qi Yu looked at the biting wind.
And the gray sky said.
Drifting on this sea, you will feel more or less unsteady, so landing as soon as possible is the right solution.
In fact, there is another thing he did not say clearly, that is, he is worried about sudden changes in wind speed.
If a typhoon-level climate develops, how can we dare to stay in the sea? How can these small fishing boats, especially, withstand strong winds and waves?
Both Peng Wenchang and Fu Xian agreed with this, but Harry thought it didn't matter. He was not proficient in military affairs and did not want to study in depth. All he cared about was the money from King Yong's family.
Let’s talk about the war.
The next thing to consider is how to destroy King Yong's land-based artillery.
Harry was the first to brush up on his presence. He said: It would be better to use the human wave tactic directly, and let his subordinates arm themselves with the lofty spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice, charge hard, march forward bravely, and seize the important place in one fell swoop.
Fu Xian believed: The cost of charging is too high, and the number of deaths of the government troops is a living example. We must not repeat the same mistakes and follow in their footsteps. It is better to observe in secret first, and then wait for the opportunity to act.
Peng Wenchang had never read the Art of War and had no experience in fighting. This time he had the self-knowledge to keep his mouth shut and did not express any opinions.
During the stalemate, Qi Xiaotong who was watching suddenly smiled faintly and said: "In my opinion, it is very easy to get rid of these land-based artillery of King Yong. Moreover, you don't have to wait for any opportunity, you can attack at any time."
Of."
oh?
Qi Yu put down his tea cup and cast a kind look that was both questioning and approving at his daughter.
So, Xiaotong cleared her throat and imitated the tone of an adult and said: "Elders, please listen to my explanation. It is currently known that the range of King Yong's artillery is significantly weaker than the heavy artillery on our treasure ship. In this case, we
Why not take advantage of this again?"
The reason why it is called "again" is because Qi Yu has already demonstrated it once with his ultimate move.
"Oh? What's the use method?" Peng Wenchang stroked his beard and smiled, and asked kindly.
"My idea is to use our heavy artillery to directly attack the opponent's land-based artillery. Because we have the advantage in range, we can suppress them. In other words, we can hit them, but they can't.
If you can't hit us, as long as you can find a safe point in the distance, you will be invincible. The method of fighting is also very simple, destroy them one by one until they are all eliminated."
After a pause, she added: "As for the four frigates, they are responsible for protecting the safety of the big treasure ship. If they see the enemy coming in a boat to attack, they will use cannonballs to resist them."
At present, King Yong's warships have been completely wiped out. If we want to attack on the water, we can only use light boats.
Shotguns are attack-type projectiles that pack a large amount into one shot, and are very suitable for bombarding such standing targets.
It has to be said that Xiaotong’s idea is not only reliable, but also extremely practical and has low risk.
Just as she said, there is no need to look for opportunities to attack like this, it can be launched at any time.
After Fu Xian figured it out, he was surprised and said: "I didn't expect the eldest lady to be so smart and actually apply the essence of defensive counterattack here."
Harry also echoed and praised: "Well, this is indeed a good idea. Almost no one will die. Even with God's help, it's nothing more than that!"
Then, the two of them started filming each other.
He was so praised that the little girl felt a little embarrassed.
Peng Wenchang laughed, showed a very pleased face, and encouraged Xiaotong: "Well, I taught you to learn and apply it back then, and now it seems that you have really taken my words to heart."
What does this mean?
oh, I get it.
This is a metaphor by the old master. The reason why Xiaotong is so smart is entirely because of his good teaching.
What? Self-payment?
Cough, spit!
Qi Yu glanced at him sideways as a silent protest: This is just bullshit, I, Qi Dalang, have clearly raised him well!
Shrimp: Don’t mess with me, I don’t have eggs either.
Afterwards, a few people laughed and decided on this strategy.
After making the decision, Qi Yu ordered food to be cooked immediately, and after noon, he immediately launched an attack.
So urgent?
We can't wait. What if the weather changes?
After arranging the trivial matters, Qi Yu spread out the map again, perfected the established tactics, and with the help of 'rules', he calculated the best safe attack point.
This is the geometry knowledge I learned in my previous life, but I didn't expect that I would use it now.
Of course, these routine calculations are not difficult for Qi Dalang, who has a background in science.
Although Xiaotong watched quietly, she couldn't understand it. This was the first time she had seen her father's calculation method, and she felt it was novel and strange.
Looking at his daughter who looked eager for knowledge, Qi Yu pointed out: "Because this knowledge is rare and rarely used, I didn't teach you. But it doesn't matter. If you really want to learn, I will teach you by words and deeds."
"Dad, as long as you can do it, I want to learn it."
"Well, you are motivated!"
"..."
After completing the calculations, Qi Yu patiently explained to the little girl some differences between ship-based artillery and shore-based artillery.
Xiaotong also listened with interest.
"Most of the shore-based artillery are built on small heights on the shore and arranged in an arc to form a coordinated combat effect to attack invading enemy forces on the water. This layout sounds impregnable, but there is a
Fatal flaw."
Xiaotong wondered: "What's the shortcoming?"
"There is no mobility at all! They are fixed in place and cannot move flexibly. Once damaged, they immediately lose their combat effectiveness. This is far inferior to the firearms used to attack cities and forts." Qi Yu explained.
"oh……"
"Ship-based artillery attacks shore-based artillery from low to high without any geographical advantage, so it is often frustrated. However, the longer range can make up for this shortcoming, and we have taken advantage of this..." Qi Yu
smiled.
Xiaotong suddenly realized and sighed: "This is generation difference..."
"good……"
If you want to stay ahead, you must vigorously develop technology, otherwise, the advantages of generational differences will be slowly caught up by others.
After going around and around until the end, technology is the core and fundamental.
But how should technology develop?
"Rely on talents!" Qi Yu answered this question very firmly, and then he said with a sad face: "Well, I hope that Qiongzhou Institute of Technology can cultivate high-end talents for me in the future...
"
Xiaotong was a little confused after hearing this, but she also understood a truth.
Development does not refer to unilateral leadership in a certain piece of equipment, but to all-round comprehensive fields. Good development requires the support of talents and funds, otherwise it is just nonsense.
Ah, this topic is really too big...
However, Qi Yu only touched on these profound knowledge and did not go into details.
