    Chapter 1141: The Man Standing on the Monster¡¯s Forehead Fang Jie knows why Zheng Qiu has been avoiding the battle so far, and also knows why the navy soldiers have not even had an arrow or a bullet so far.  Fight out.  Because Zheng Qiu's avoidance of war was caused by the fear of war in his heart.  Fang Jie also knew that Zheng Qiu had never been a person who was afraid of war. As long as he was on the river, Zheng Qiu had never been afraid of anyone.  This time Zheng Qiu is still not afraid, but worried.  Zheng Qiu looked at Fang Jie with some fear and wanted to explain, but couldn't find the words.  He led two naval forces to transport Chen Dingnan and Chen Banshan's troops, but had to stop in Ninghai. He was almost a thousand miles ahead of Fang Jie and others by water, but he waited until Fang Jie arrived.  "Afraid of damaging the warship?" "Afraid of being embarrassed if defeated? Losing morale?" "Afraid of losing the prestige of the Black Flag Army?" Fang Jie asked four questions in a row.  Zheng Qiu opened his mouth and nodded heavily.  "My subordinates have been observing the warships of the Opuru Empire for many days in a row. They are indeed more reasonable than our warships, and the cooperation between their gunboats is much smoother than that of our naval warships. Our warships are equipped  The number of artillery is less than one-third, and we will inevitably suffer losses if we go head-to-head." Fang Jie understood him, and Zheng Qiu started talking: "My subordinates have been observing these days, and the foreign navy's warship coordination is based on actual combat drills.  Yes, and our warship cooperation is still at the level expected. There was a lot of actual shooting at the Xuanwu Lake Water Village, but they were all fixed targets. In actual combat, with the control capabilities of our naval soldiers, the three  It would be good if one shot can hit. "But the enemy will not give us the chance to hit one shot after three shots." Zheng Qiu said: "I am not afraid of fighting, I am just afraid of losing the warship in vain."  , I'm sorry that my lord has made such great preparations, but my subordinates dare not attack rashly before we have complete preparations. The foreign navy has far more artillery on its warships than we do, and they also know the best time to fire the guns better than we do.  " Fang Jie nodded: "How long will it take for you to come up with a perfect plan? " Zheng Qiu shook his head: "I don't know, but even if my lord orders this battle, I can't guarantee that I will win." "  He didn't say anything. After being silent for a while, he turned to Andrew and asked, "What do you think?" Andrew came with Zheng Qiu's fleet this time, and he felt aggrieved after arriving in Ninghai.  It was clear that the enemy who had destroyed his motherland was not far ahead and had cut off the waterway of the river, but he just couldn't fight it happily. This feeling was really uncomfortable.  "I think General Zheng is right." Andrew took a deep breath and said in fluent Chinese: "I have also been observing the warships of the Aupulu Empire. Before arriving at Ninghai, I imagined countless things in my mind.  After seeing the appearance of the enemy's warship, I thought I had done everything I could, but after seeing the enemy's warship, I realized that it was still worse to do it behind closed doors. " Andrew said: "If we are facing the original.  The fleet of the Principality of Ross, our navy can crush the opponent. The fleet of the Principality of Ross does not have many warships, and it is far less powerful than our warships, and its artillery is not as powerful as our artillery. However, the warships of the Opuru Empire.  , It¡¯s really more reasonable.¡± He looked at Fang Jie and said: ¡°On one side is the navy that has just been established, and on the other side is the fleet that has conquered countless countries on the ocean. If this battle starts rashly, I feel that I have a chance of winning.  Not on our side." "That means we won't fight?" Fang Jie asked.  Andrew quickly shook his head: "Now it seems that the number of warships in the Opulu Empire fleet is far less than ours, but the person leading the army must be an experienced general. The ship formation he has arranged on the water has already exerted his power.  To the extreme. Although the number is small, they will not suffer if they just intercept us." "I sent people to test it." Zheng Qiu said from the side: "The range of the artillery of the Opuru Empire is about the same as ours.  The enemy is defending and we are attacking. When the warship is facing the enemy, the main gun on the bow is obviously not powerful enough, and if the gun is fired while sailing, the hit rate is also very low.  , we need to turn the bow of the ship after entering the firing range and fire at the enemy with the artillery on the side of the ship. The range of the enemy's artillery is similar to the range of our artillery. When our warship turns around and forms a formation, the enemy's artillery fire can fire at least two rounds.  "He looked at Fang Jie and said seriously: "Two shots per ship are already a fatal blow to our warships." "So," Andrew said, "People from the Opuru Empire.The general of the army must be an experienced person. He just puts out the defensive formation, and we can't do anything. It's not that there is nothing we can do under the premise of giving full play to the power of the warships.  "    "but!  " He looked at Fang Jie eagerly: "If my lord can order those practitioners to attack, it can buy time for our navy. As long as the practitioners get close to those big ships and destroy some of them, our warships can  Complete the turn with reduced resistance.  " "How many ships does the enemy have?  " Fang Xie asked. "No less than three hundred and sixty.  Zheng Qiu replied: "They are all sea-going ships, and the enemies come from the ocean. Small ships cannot move at all, so the ones intercepted on the river are all big ships."  "Three hundred and sixty large ships." Fang Jie felt a little wrinkled in his heart. This number of ships can completely seal the Yangtze River waterway. "Chen Dingnan, Chen Qianshan!"  " Fang Jie ordered: "You two will lead your troops to land immediately and rush to Fenghuang Terrace to meet up with Nalan Dingdong.  The people of Sanjinhou have already left the customs at Shanhaiguan. After you join Nalan Dingdong, you will be able to communicate with Sanjinhou from a distance. From the south to the north, it will be a shock to both foreigners and Mu Mansion.  " "Here!  " Chen Dingnan and Chen Bishan clasped their fists at the same time: "I accept your order!  " "Go ahead," Fang Jie ordered: "You two are not as familiar with the terrain and battle situation as Nalan, so don't think that you, a veteran leader, can influence tactics long ago. Listen to Nalan.  " "Here!  "The two men agreed again, then turned and left to mobilize their troops. "No matter what happens to the navy, the large team of troops must rush to Phoenix Terrace to join Nalan.  This war has lasted long enough. If it continues, reinforcements from the Opuru Empire will come in batches from across the ocean, and our people, after gradually adapting to the war, will no longer be as they were at the beginning.  Such indignation.  " Fang Jie said in a very soft but serious tone: "This has nothing to do with any nation. For example, when the Principality of Ross in Andrew's hometown was first invaded by the Opuru Empire, the resistance must have been extremely strong.  But a few years have passed, and the people of the Principality of Ross have begun to get used to their new identity as the people of the Principality of Hurons.  " "What I least want to see.  " Fang Jie said slowly: "Our people and the enemy walked face to face on the street. No one looked at the other, as if they had merged with each other." Zheng Qiu had a look of shame on his face: "That's what I thought.  Not enough.  " "No" Fang Jie shook his head: "As a naval general, you are doing your duty.  He turned around and ordered: "Let your navy get out of the way. I want to take a big dragon boat over there to see what the foreigners' navy is like, and let the foreigners see what our navy is like."  " Zheng Qiu quickly ordered the navy's fleet to move to both sides to make way for Fang Jie's fleet. The name of the naval general of the Opuru Empire is Susis, and he is a standard noble of the Opuru Empire.  A young man. He will only turn twenty-eight tomorrow. This young man, who has already been appreciated by Emperor Leman at a young age, was predicted by the nobles of the Opulu Empire to wait until he is forty years old.  He can become the commander of the navy at that time. For an empire that has been engaged in foreign aggression and expansion for a long time, it is obvious how high the status of the naval commander is. Yes, he is young, but under Lyman, there are people who are younger than him and are used in important positions.  Generals abound. So Susis doesn¡¯t think his age is an advantage. He always thinks that his ability is what Emperor Lyman values. ¡°Dear Duke.  "His naval general, Demorens, filled a glass of red wine for Susis, looked at the red sun that was about to fall on the river in the distance, and said: "Your Excellency just set up the battle like this, so that the Han people have no way to start.  .  You are right. When it comes to naval warfare, the Han people's experience is simply zero, not even as good as the weak Chu navy.  " "Don't underestimate the Han people.  " Susis has a tall nose, a broad forehead, deep-set eye sockets, and a pair of bright blue eyes. It seems that he is definitely worthy of being one of the three handsome men in the Opuru Empire.  This is a young man who is deliberately not arrogant, but is arrogant to the core. He has inherited his father's title of duke and has become the master of the Bird of Paradise family, which has its own family.  , and the family flower of the Sussis family is the bird of paradise, which was originally a specialty of the Opuru Empire. This flower was created after his ancestors and companions conquered an extremely backward tribe many, many years ago.??The family flower was made from a flower that is a specialty of that tribe.  Yes, the history of the Susis family is not very long.  Yes, this flower symbolizes aggression and conquest for the Susis family.  Yes, Susis's ancestors gradually became prosperous by conquering the indigenous area and gaining huge wealth. Although they did not belong to the real big family of the Opuru Empire, the Birds of Paradise family also had huge influence on the other side of the ocean.  influence.  "This Han navy is different, haven't you noticed? De Morens, not only have they installed artillery, but the artillery's position is very reasonable." Susis said: "I have to suspect that there are some that do not belong to this place.  "People are helping them." "Nine times out of ten, they are from the old guy Hullens' territory." Demorens said: "After Hullens got the fief, he was sent to this place or that place before he could manage it.  "Mr. Duke!" Someone shouted outside: "Please come out and see!" Susis was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the room and boarded the deck.  Then he saw the warship that the soldiers used the word "monster" to describe when they shouted.  That¡¯s right!  This is a monster!  "The Han people always create things randomly like this!" Susis found himself angry, maybe because of jealousy and fear?  That huge warship looks really ferocious, and its huge body exudes a domineering power that can crush everything.  It is like the king of beasts coming from the distant sky, looking down at Susis.  Of course, looking down at Susis was the young man in black standing on the monster's forehead.
