A Weird Theater That Started In London

Vol 11 Chapter 102: Empire Afterglow (13)

"Open."

Lu Li had been idle for too long, so naturally he would not refuse Liu Qi's invitation, so he decided to accompany him to fight Shuntian.

Unparalleled in the East?

Zhang Fei of Japan?

Lu Li, who once killed Wushuang Lihua Zongmao in the West, thought it would be a good talk to take the so-called Wushuang of the East together.

The coalition navy left the base on the 15th, but spent two days on Luo Lao Island, set off again on the 18th, arrived at Zuoshuiying after the anti-treading, and arrived at Shuntian on the morning of the 20th. Pomelo Island on the southwest side of Wacheng.

For the Army, this is super speed!

But the sailors are different. With the help of wind and tide force, if you are careful, you should be able to arrive in just three days. The reason for the slowness is that after the honeymoon period, the two generals under Lu Li finally broke out a little. contradiction.

The strategic mission of the navy is very clear:

Sweeping the Jeolla and Gyeongsang seas.

Suppress as many Japanese naval divisions as possible.

Because the water battle is very special, there are a lot of doorways, so Xing Jie, who was in charge of the entire peninsula battle, did not stipulate a specific combat route, and gave the commanders the right to decide on their own.

For the first time Lu Li commanded the fleet, he mostly listened to the advice of the two chief generals and chose the good ones to follow.

On the way, I encountered some enemy forces!

Chen Lin believed that it should be easier first and then more difficult, first to crusade against the Li Chao puppet army operating in the South China Sea, to solve the worries, and then to support Liu Qi;

Yi Sun-sin believed that those puppet troops who defected to the enemy and betrayed the country were not worried at all. As long as they killed the main force of the Japanese army in Suncheoncheon, they would definitely be defeated without a fight.

Everyone is justified, but no one can convince anyone.

As a result, the two of them in Zuoshuiying had a big quarrel in front of Lu Li, the uncrowned admiral, over this disagreement. Chen Lin was anxious, and said that the commander-in-chief should ask the Ming emperor's Shang Fang sword—

This one really exists.

A sacrificial weapon with the spirit of the great Ming dragon, it cannot be used to fight the enemy on the battlefield.

Hearing this, Yi Sun-sin was also anxious without waiting for Lu to leave his mouth. With a stab in the neck, he said you should just kill me. Anyway, this official only beats Japanese people, and North Koreans don't beat North Koreans.

When the two were arguing, Lu Li made up his mind, saying that Admiral Liu Wei was in a hurry to march into Shuntian, and he needed the cooperation of the naval forces.

The commander said, no matter how reluctant Chen Lin was, he had to do it.

In addition, the relationship between him and Yi Sun-sin has not deteriorated because of this. It is just a matter of fact. After all, everyone leads the army alone all year round, and the sailors who stay at sea must have their own opinions.

Twenty days, night.

The coalition forces arrived in the ocean before Suncheon.

In the early morning of the next day, because the tide was too shallow for melee combat, Lu Li ordered the fleet to surround the waterfront of Shuntian Wa City and bombard the city with naval artillery.

Honda Zhongsheng saw that the flags and flags in the foreign regions were fluttering and flying dazzlingly, and the large black sailed ships of the Ming and dynasties were parked. He immediately frowned and sighed, and strictly ordered the warriors under his command not to go out of the city to meet the enemy.

Anyway, Shuntian is extremely strong, and there are priests in the city to bless him, so he is not afraid of long-range bombardment.

In this way, Honda Zhongsheng held it in until the sunset was about to set, and then he sent a troop of two hundred people out of the city to try it out.

Then, this group of warriors was defeated by Chen Lin's most reliant coyote soldiers, and in a hurry, they retreated into Shuntian City, and continued to be unable to retreat.

That night, Yi Sun-sin was worried that the Japanese would launch a night attack, so he personally led the elite to patrol the camps overnight.

At the same time, the puppet army in the South China Sea, who was lucky enough to escape, wanted to touch it to see if there was a chance, but Lu Li found it early and led a fleet to attack it head-on, grabbing the ship and grabbing food.

Most of these scumbags were buried in the sea, only a few landed successfully and escaped.

After all, it was the first major battle after leaving Seoul. From Lu Li down, the morale was very strong. In the early morning of the 22nd, taking advantage of the high tide, the coalition navy attacked.

After all, Honda Tadakatsu is also the Warriors of the East. He may not always be a tortoise, and he always hides in the city. Sooner or later, he will be consumed to death.

In addition to the advantage of artillery fire, attacking land by sea is still risky.

The flagship of the guerrilla general Ji Jin accidentally ran aground on the beach, and the Japanese seized the opportunity and beat him hard.

Fortunately, Daming's ship was high, so even if it ran aground, it would take a certain amount of time for the Japanese to get up.

There is no need for Lu Li to separate troops to rescue.

This guy was standing on the side of the ship, with a cannon on his shoulder, and slapped the dwarfs around and blasted them away.

Afterwards, the nearby fleet rushed over and rescued the stranded flagship.

In this battle, the coalition forces only lost eleven people, and the guerrilla general Ji Jin was shot in the left arm.

Japanese casualties are not counted.

However, while fighting, Lu Li, Chen Lin, and Yi Sunchen all discovered one thing. Where did Liu Wei's West Route Army go?

This is what he has done.

The fleet successfully mobilized the Japanese from the city. Why didn't the army in the north take the opportunity to attack the city? Did not hear any movement.

Moreover, the main force of the navy is sailors, who have to control ships and fight sea battles. The wolf soldiers in charge of land battles are strong, but the number is not many compared to the Japanese, and it is difficult to maintain this kind of battle for a long time.

In the end, after a stalemate for a while, Lu Li had no choice but to order the withdrawal of the army, rushing to withdraw the fleet to a deeper ocean before the tide went out.

To be honest, he was not very happy.

Under the fame, it's actually hard to match!

The first time the Japanese rioted, this old boy didn't fight any hard battles, so he just opened his mouth and said, now that he is leading the army alone, he can realize his ambition, why is he so sluggish?

A young general with good skills was sent out to ask Liu Wei for Lu Li what was going on.

It's okay not to ask, but Lu Li got angry when he asked. The old boy didn't do anything. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com urged his army of more than 20,000 people to build siege equipment leisurely!

The navy has been dawdling enough, because the two main generals disagreed, and after two days of delay, Lu Li felt sorry for the brothers of the West Route Army.

The results of it?

Liu Qi really didn't care. According to the young generals under his command, they just started to build tools, and depending on their posture, they couldn't make it in four or five days.

"This guy... he's too passive at work."

Chen Lin was displeased.

As for Lu Xinli, who was not happy and was not happy, he had already come to help out, so he might not have to leave. Against his will, he praised, "Admiral Liu has a delicate mind and wants to fight a well-prepared siege battle."

In any case, the water-land coalition forces have indeed surrounded the Japanese, and the manufacture of siege equipment with such great fanfare can also act as a deterrent.

So... Liu Da Dao's movements are unpleasantly slow, but his form is stronger than people's.

Only one leader of Li Chaoyi's army, after meeting with Liu Wei, sighed:

"Liu Gong has no fighting spirit, so he will retreat with peace."

Anyway, Lu Li didn't want to believe it. He expected Liu Wei to surprise him, temporarily stationing the fleet overseas and waiting for good news on land.

Five very quiet days.

On the land, the Ming army was collectively immersed in carpentry work, while Honda Zhongsheng was calculating the food in the city.

Twenty-ninth.

You're done, it's time to attack the city!
