Chapter 285 The Little Marquis (Twenty-three) unexpected victory

Ruan Fuze's guess is actually not correct, but it does not matter if it is not true, because although the Arakan Fleet knew that the fleet composed of more than a dozen giant ships in front of them must be the "Ming Fleet" directed at them, they did not do it from the beginning.

Be prepared to face the challenge.

Why? Because of the disparity in strength, they knew that there was no chance of victory in a frontal battle, so they could only hope to pretend to be stupid and deceive this encounter, and then disperse and flee when the "Ming Fleet" was unprepared.

As I said a long time ago, naval battles are different from land battles. The strength of both sides is on the surface. You look at me and I look at you. They can almost all be seen at a glance, but not so much.

There was room for ingenuity and ingenuity - especially before the invention of radio.

Qi Jiguang once said that in naval battles, big ships are better than small ships, and many ships are better than few ships. If you have many and big ships, and the other party's ships are few and small, then you will win in a chaotic manner. On the contrary, that is, the other party will defeat you in a chaotic manner.

If you mess up and win, there won't be much else to say.

Of course, this statement still needs to be slightly adjusted in the age of artillery, because the difference in artillery level can change the balance of combat power. So Gao Pragmatic summed it up at the beginning and added two more sentences to Qi Jiguang's words: Big artillery beats small artillery, and more artillery wins.

Few guns.

According to these two mantras, the idea of ​​​​building the Beijing-China fleet is very simple and unpretentious: size plus quantity, I want them all.

The Beiyang Fleet is okay. After all, the mission sea area is relatively small, and the number and scale can be smaller. However, the hull and number of guns are the same as those of the Nanyang Fleet, and they are all general-standard warships. The size of the Nanyang Fleet is the same, and it is almost always expanding.

That is actually an important reason why southern Xinjiang is becoming less and less expandable - putting such a large fleet there will require maintenance fees.

Now the whole of Nanyang has not yet been fully controlled, and the scale of trade is close to the limit. Although due to the economic development of Southern Xinjiang itself, the overall scale of trade is gradually decreasing, but the speed of improvement is still sufficient in the eyes of the fleet.

Very, very sufficient, so the fleet needs to open up a smaller market and obtain smaller profits!

But there is no trouble at all: Low pragmatism's expansion in southern Xinjiang is not the model of Western colonists. It is to go to the local area to occupy several trading strongholds, from doing trade to quickly enclosing land and enslaving people.

Local people make cows for their own benefit.

PS: I finally figured out how to fish, and I’m going out now. I’ll take a day off tomorrow, and I’ll make up for the chapter I owe.

Why is the most important policy in southern Xinjiang always the household registration and naturalization system? It is because I want to institutionalize, make the Chinese civilization a national policy, and make it permanent.

So, while they just wanted to pretend to be stupid, and at the same time they simply gave the other party a chance to pretend to be stupid, they directly ordered an outflank and roundup. The Arakanese fired a few complex cannons, and the mobile fleet fired back with heavy artillery. When they were young, a Kirk ship was hit by a

The heavy chain bomb hit, and the bridge was almost swept away. The remaining Arakanese were almost frightened and hoisted white flags one after another.

Although very popular, the combat capabilities of that kind of ship are really unlimited. Due to the advantages of firearms, Spain and Portugal cannot rely on such large ships to attack some undersea opponents that have not even retreated into the age of firearms. However, facing the Nanyang Fleet,

Facing a giant ship that has some advantages over Europe's main warships, the Arakanese simply don't have that kind of confidence.

Even though many new countries were established in the Americas, which originally had a large population, those countries have always solved the troubles caused by the seven-dimensional oppositional thinking. When our development reaches its peak, the domestic law is unreasonable.

The internal divisions were torn apart, and the Seven Elements of Confrontation once again started. They regarded each other as heretics and hated each other until they were eliminated.

The method of maintaining oneself by constantly creating enemies is actually not a guarantee. Only by constantly turning enemies into a real part of oneself can one's strength continue to grow, and become weaker and weaker. From the middle reaches of the Yellow River

A large piece becomes the present, becomes...the future.

It was originally just an unexpected encounter, but a combination of circumstances actually caused the coastal defense of Jixiao Port to completely disappear. Now there is only one question left: Why did the Arakan fleet emerge from the port by coincidence?

However, even the Spanish little Galen and the two ocean fleets had beaten him before. The master had beaten him before, not to mention the registered disciple?

Founding a country on the basis of seven-yuan opposition, taking conquering opponents and oppressing opponents as failure and glory, we will eventually go out of the spiral of history. Sometimes the right defeats the left, and sometimes the left defeats the right. We will always achieve balance, and it will always be a pendulum.

Our own strength is constantly being wasted while swinging from right to left, and we go to the battlefield in vain to fill up countless lives. In the end, we get nothing. Only this short-lived "past glory" becomes our eternal memory.

As a result, the local people gradually discovered before the various turmoils in the initial period - Hey, why is my governance so much worse than before? Are you making such a fuss?

Thanks to book friend "doni" for your monthly ticket support, thank you!

No one said that the reason why the Chinese civilization was defeated or overturned was not because that civilization advocated "the lower good is like water" and "water benefits all things but fights". In the end, anyone can turn themselves into that lower good water.

a part of.

What's more, the Portuguese are also stupid. Some of the manufacturing techniques passed down to us are outdated technologies from the West and can only make some large ships. However, the manufacturing techniques of the small Galen ships, which were the main submarine ships of the Spanish Empire in the future, will be taught to them.

Arakanese.

Back to the battle situation. The Arakan fleet knew who it was when it first saw the mobile fleet. After all, the merchant ships from southern Xinjiang have long been plying the South Asian subcontinent to do business. We have made good use of the standard ships in southern Xinjiang. More

What's more, the flag hung by the other party also incorrectly indicated his identity, so there's nothing worth thinking about?

That is completely different from the foundation of Western civilization, this monotheistic idea of ​​seven-dimensional opposition. Western civilization conquered so little land at the peak of its military power, but in the end it could only return to its homeland when its military power was at its peak.

In terms of quantity, the royal warships of Arakan in Jixiaogang are larger than the mobile fleet. There are only eleven ships in total, but unfortunately they are all large Kirk ships. In the end, these ships were mainly popular in Northern Europe. Come here

It was improved to some extent by Spain and Portugal and became the most common large ship in the Age of Discovery.

The low pragmatism mode is actually a typical Chinese expansion: your strength has reached his own method, and he feels that your strength is too weak and threatens him, so he stops trying to find ways to conflict with you, and eventually the weapons are turned against each other. At this time,

Because he was the one who took the initiative to provoke you, you sent troops to destroy his military power without any reason. At that time, because you were worried about his revenge, you simply ended your rule.

However, although the small port area of ​​Arakanji is unknown in the surrounding area for being rich in excellent sailors, Arakan's financial resources are here. Even if it obtained some manufacturing techniques for Western sailing ships from the Portuguese, it could only use it to make some improvements to its own warships. Improvement, quantity and bottom line will be reduced.

If you prosper by this, you will perish by this.

----------

But that is only the first step, and the seventh step is actually the key. This is not that you are taking the local people as slaves, but that "as long as they are under your rule, they are not your subjects, because you are Parents of all nations”.

So those people became obedient people several generations ago, and because of the weakness of the Chinese civilization itself and its unique inclusiveness and centripetal force, those people even recognized one thing from the bottom of their hearts: What is Chinese is Chinese, and you are the same as us. , why are you making a fuss?
