Chapter 740 (2/2)

Less than a month later, the second order of warship assembly was issued, and the important talents from the major ports were transferred to Longhou port, an important large port.

As long as the war has a slightly sensitive sense of smell, they can smell something wrong.

There are only two possibilities for a second call.

The first possibility is that the battle in the Donau river is going very smoothly, with a large number of looting targets. They can't carry out the looting, so they can summon the follow-up troops to reinforce them.

This is not likely, because if this happens, the fleet will not be hidden at all, and the fleet will be summoned in the mode of beating gongs and drums.

The second possibility is that if there is a problem in the battle ahead, we need to call up the second echelon of warships to reinforce us. Moreover, it is very urgent and dangerous. Otherwise, we don't need to take away all the craftsmen and officials, right?

They went rashly and might turn into cannon fodder.

No one is stupid!

Even if the captain can wait for the ship's position for ten and a half months, he can wait for the ship's position and make preparations.

Those small ports, small cities, also with fried pot.

They have taken away the important personnel. Isn't this clear and abandoned here?

Those who have their own opinions on the rule of the east sea state are ready to move.

Those who are loyal to the Donghai state try their best to squeeze into the big ports such as Longhou port and warships.

As a result, the East China Sea itself has become a pot of porridge before the enemy comes.

This is Prince Leighton, who were the initiators of the crime. They were not able to grasp the human relationship and human nature.

There is no turning back.

Donghaiguo is already in this situation. They can't give up halfway. They can only persevere.

Under the circumstances of patching together, they spent four days and four nights to piece together a fleet of more than 800 warships, large and small. Under the leadership of Prince Leighton, they fought against the Donau river.

The distance between the Dawan islands and the mouth of the Donau river is not far, and the straight-line distance is only 350 nautical miles.

Two days and two nights is enough to run even in bad wind.

Prince Leighton, they went to the rescue, and the natural speed was at its maximum, day and night.

As it approached the mouth of the Danao River, the formation of the Donghai rescue fleet gradually opened, reaching more than ten nautical miles.

It is not the fastest one that rushes ahead, but the lineage of Donghai state, who is most concerned about the situation of the East China Sea Fleet led by stubin.

Those who linger and follow are reluctant to be recruited.

”Your Highness, in another 30 nautical miles, we will arrive at the mouth of the Danao river. Order the fleet to correct its formation. Your majesty has been waiting for a week. In half a day's time, we are here to rescue, not to send our heads. If we rush up in such disorder, we will easily give each other a chance to break down.” The captain of the ship Bree admonished Prince Leighton.”In this area, uncle is the real expert. How do you think this battle should be fought? I'm at your command. ” Prince Leighton said humbly.

”No, this battle should not be under my command, it should be under the command of Captain Cornell. After all, he has seen the new long-range weapons led by Yongye army and knows more about their warships.” Captain Bree shook his head.

”Captain Cornell, how do you think we should fight this battle?” Prince Leighton turned his eyes to another captain.

Captain Cornell was surprised and excited, and said, ”Captain Bree is more cautious than the rumor. I can't afford the position of commander. I can only make a few suggestions to your highness based on what I know.”

”Go ahead, please.” Prince Leighton put on an air of listening.

”The range, power and firing speed of the artillery of Yongye military leading technique are all above our catapults, and even the speed of warships is also above us. We do not have any advantages in single ship combat effectiveness. The only advantage we have is quantity, and only quantity.”

The captain of Cornell had obviously thought about this problem for a long time, and opened his mouth and said, ”even if we have the advantage of quantity, we can't rush forward. The distance between the warships must be widened to form a huge encirclement as a whole, so as to compress their circuitous space. In this process, a lot of battle damage is inevitable, but we must insist on it, As long as we can make our fleet close to them and launch an all-round attack, we believe that victory will belong to us. After all, there are only a few dozen warships under the command of the Yongye army, and one of them will be sunk

”According to the captain of Cornell, the key point of this time's tactics is to work together. Even if it's a sinking battle, you can't retreat, you have to rush forward with your life and death!” Captain Bree frowned. ”It's too difficult for us. Those captains and captains won't work so hard for us.”

”They don't want to work hard because the temptation is not big enough. If the temptation is big enough, you can see whether they sell their lives or not.” Prince Leighton's face beamed with confidence and said, ”wait a moment. In the course of this battle, any damage to their warships and ships will be attributed to us. We will compensate them according to the larger standard. We will compensate them for the loss of a surf schooner. After that, we will compensate them for the loss of a rowboat and a hurricane Schooners, you see if they sell for their lives

”There must be brave men under a great reward.” A glimmer of admiration flashed in captain Bree's eyes. ”Just to do this, it's hard to guarantee that someone will take advantage of it, and the financial expenditure will be too large.”

”We can't care so much now. As long as we can save the main force of the fleet, we will have a chance to start again.” Prince Leighton said very grandly, ”what's more, when the warship is just given to different people, it will still be a part of our East Sea country.”

”Alert, alert, alert, a large number of unknown warships are approaching us at high speed.”

”The number of unknown warships has been confirmed, a total of 23. The distance between the two sides is eight nautical miles and the speed is 18 knots. It is expected that the two sides will meet in 15 minutes.”

”Warning, warning, warning, unknown warship is speeding up, now more than 20 knots, the time for the two sides to meet will be advanced.”

There was a series of commotion from the warships.
