C3099 Brunei ambush

The hand-held alarm emitted a mournful scream. The brightness of the city suddenly doubled. It was the result of countless torches being ignited. Along the coastline, there were burning bonfires everywhere.

"The Spanish fleet is coming! Attack! "Attack!"

"Let them know how powerful they are, and let this Brunei Bay become their grave! Seal the bay! "Fire ready!"

The whole of Brunei Bay, whether it was the wilderness or urban areas, suddenly filled with countless human figures. From the looks of it, the entire city had already rushed out.

The bonfire that was already prepared was filled with kerosene. After it was lit, the raging flames illuminated the entire street, the light from the bonfires and torches combined to form a river of stars, sketching out the outline of Brunei Bay.

In the bright light, one cannon after another revealed their sinister faces, the black muzzles aimed at the Spanish fleet in Brunei Bay.

"Fire!" Immerse these invading battleships! To hell with Spaniard! "

Boom! Boom! Boom! This time, there were a total of more than 500 field gun lying in ambush at Brunei Bay, and they were split into 5 shooting positions.

These positions were set up in a very tricky manner, especially with the point of care being the moa island and Peyron Sea Point which were sealing off the mouth of the bay. The entrance and exit of Brunei Bay was sealed off here, and Huang Wanxia and the rest had hidden a total of 300 cannons there.

The remaining artillery positions were one hidden in the city and one on the east coast. The five shooting positions would protect the city and also block the retreat of the Spanish fleet.

This was the first time that they were being bombarded by cannons of such a scale. This was not the type of Large-scale Gun for Coastal Defense s with large caliber, these were all field gun with high numbers of small caliber.

Every time they all shot out, the coastline in the distance seemed to suddenly shine with a flash of light. Following which, hundreds of artillery shells flew towards them like a hail storm, drawing a gloomy trajectory in the sky.

Deck, Sea, Sky... There were explosions everywhere, tons of water thrown into the air and poured onto the deck of the ship.

Some battleships were simply too unlucky. The bridge was directly hit, and the flames instantly soared into the sky!

"Retreat!" We've fallen into a trap! "Hurry up and retreat …" All the battleships were screaming in fear, and people were running wildly in the fire. Many of the sailors who were burning their bodies jumped into the sea, screaming like pigs being butchered.

"Counterattack!" Fire on Mora Island, we must suppress the enemy's firepower, or else we won't be able to get out! "

The panicking Spanish fleet finally opened fire, and the flank of the warship let out an angry roar. In the pitch-black night, every time the warship opened fire, it was like a sea monster spitting out flames.

Fang Dong held onto a bayonet in his hand and personally stood guard on Mo La Island. The closest explosion was less than twenty meters away from him.

"Scram!" What if they couldn't block these battleships in Brunei Bay and rush out, what would they do? How much damage would that cause? "

"Our navy is just starting out. All the experienced naval officers have gone to Europe with the leader, and the ones left in Asia are all cadets!"

"Do you think the Führer will be willing to give up his future seeds to die for those children who have yet to graduate from the naval academy?"

"Therefore, in this operation against the Three Treasures, our main offensive strength is the army! The Navy is only supporting and cannot join the final battle! "

"This is the core of the entire strategy. This is the leader's death order!"

"We are here, I am here! I will watch you fight, I will watch the enemy die here!"

"Regardless of the casualties, I don't care how many of you die, I must ensure the density of the cannons!" Even if your father dies by your side, you still have to fire your cannonball at me! "

"Soldiers are dead, officers are dead, officers are dead, officers are dead!"

What Fang Dong said was not wrong, this was indeed Xiao Letian's plan. The entire Western Wars Battlefield, with the Hua Clan protecting the navy, cannot begin the decisive battle, because Chinese Navy had not formed any fighting capabilities yet.

They knew their own things!

Don't just look at how the Zhiyuan Warship shocked the world at Eastern Frisian Islands, which was destined to go down in history and be recorded in textbooks as part of the Miracle Sea War. Don't think that just because the European Military experts was flattering them, they truly thought that the Chinese Navy were invincible.

As the saying goes, a hundred year old navy is very reasonable. The establishment of a navy does not depend on the formation of a few warships. It depends on a large number of naval officers and officers.

The complexity of the Navy exceeded even that of the Air Force!

Because a fighter jet can be piloted by one pilot, even a large bomber only has a dozen or so crew members.

Even if the training of fighter pilots is made of gold, as long as you can afford it, you can train a batch of qualified pilots in a short period of time.

The Navy is different, I've never heard of a battleship being able to drive away by itself. Each battleship is actually a survival fortress on the sea, and it requires hundreds or even thousands of people to cooperate in order to survive!

Talent was the Navy's greatest combat power. The British Navy's greatest strength still relied on the very large number of sailors to count and replenish their manpower.

The Chinese could not do it. The only naval officers that the Chinese could, in fact, fight in a tough battle were the Zhiyuan Warship s. They were all veterans who had studied in the West and participated in actual combat.

Back then, Zhiyuan Warship secretly came back from Europe, and they had to use miscellaneous soldiers to gain experience along the way!

On the other hand, the naval officers and soldiers of the Ryukyu s had only been in contact with the battles in the Haishenwai, including the battles against France, but they were on a very small scale.

The inexperienced soldiers wanted them to fight a decisive battle, this was the greatest inresponsibility!

Xiao Letian would never do something like killing a chicken to get its eggs!

Furthermore, even though the Maritime War in Eastern Frisia Zhiyuan Warship won in the end, the Head of the Guards knew how miserable the beating was.

In Xiao Letian's eyes, the army's death meant nothing to him. Just a few seedlings dying in the navy would mean he would not be able to fall asleep!

He couldn't let the army hear those words. If they did, there might be people with brains who wanted to dig out their bellies!

Fortunately, Xiao Hexin had taken advantage of Spaniard's arrogance and foolishness. Furthermore, he knew that it had been a long time since he last went through severe training with these brainless colonists, and they had long since forgotten about the cruelty of war.

Such an army would have to use some tricks to lie to them!

As expected, the warships had all entered Brunei Bay without even sending out their vanguard unit to investigate. It could be seen how crazy these Spaniard s were.

Since you are courting death, don't blame the Chinese for being ruthless!

Huang Wanxia fought in the Brunei city. Fang Dong guarded the entrance of the sea, both sides gave the death order, they would rather be completely wiped out than to let the enemy ship escape!

The commander rushed to the front line of the battle. How could the soldiers under him not fight with their lives on the line? At that moment, the firepower from the counterattack from the shore increased by 30%.
