Chapter 931 Danger or opportunity?

"But if we rescue Luzon, we will have to be exposed to the Dasong Navy and face the battle head-on, which is quite unfavorable to us," said Rear Admiral Van Sire.

Major General Folangji Colombia hurriedly said, "Although this is the case, if Luzon is lost, Dasong will stop in the eastern Tunan Region, and the gun will be on your head."

Luzon is related to Folangji's interests, so he naturally wants to win the support of the coalition forces.

When many generals heard this, they fell into silence.

For them, this is really a difficult problem.

Not saving Luzon is a trouble, and saving Luzon is also a trouble.

Mafuer paced back and forth with his pipe in his arms, glancing at the chart from time to time.

After a long time, he made a decision, "We cannot save Luzon, nor can we sit idly by. The Dasong battleship that went south this time had thirty steamships and sail warships, which were at least half of the Dasong Navy, or even most of the troops."

During the Battle of Japan, they confirmed that Dasong had twenty-four steamships and forty-eight sail warships.

Now less than a year has passed since the naval battle, and based on the reconnaissance, he judged that the number of warships of the Dasong Navy had expanded again.

"Save it or not?" Cervedo's voice was filled with dissatisfaction.

He was also an admiral, but he was not convinced by Ma Fuer at all.

If it weren't for Britain's greatest strength in the Eastern Land, he wouldn't be willing to work with the British.

"Don't be so anxious, Ceverdo." Mafur spit out a smoke ring, "The Dasong fleet heads south to Luzon, and we take the opportunity to take away Yizhou and cut off their retreat. In order to save Yizhou, they must go north. At that time, we will concentrate all our strength and set up an ambush circle in the Yizhou waters, waiting for them."

After pausing, he continued, "But in order to prevent the remaining Dasong Navy from coming to protect Yizhou, we need to send several teams to a feint."

After saying that, Mafuer marked three dots on the chart.

There are three places: Jinghai, Qingcheng and Laicheng.

All three of these places are located in the Dasong Shipbuilding House.

Among them, Jinghai painted the largest circle.

"Although I don't like you guy, you're dealing with it right," Kervedo said.

At present, the number of coalition warships is obviously better than that of the Dasong Navy.

In this way, their warships will be abundant.

Twenty ships were sent to Jinghai, five ships were heading to Qingcheng, and five ships were heading to Laicheng.

The other generals also nodded.

Although Colombia is eager to relieve the crisis in Luzon.

But obviously if the Dasong Navy cannot be defeated, this crisis will not be completely resolved.

Agree on the next strategy.

Mafore assigned tasks to generals from all countries.

The Florence, Stedam, and Sam's fleet were responsible for feinting attacks in three places and dragging some of the Dasong battleships.

The remaining warships headed straight to Yizhou.

The next day.

Ferron, Stedam and Sam's warships set out first.

Three days later, Malfoy personally led the remaining warships to Yizhou.

"May God bless us." As the warship set off, Malfoy drew a cross on his chest.

This time, including Sam's country, theirs owned seventy steamships and one hundred and forty-four sail battleships.

In terms of the size of the navy, it far surpassed the Dasong fleet.

Moreover, their confident and sophisticated Western Turkish Navy was better than the first-built navy in Dasong in training.

It was just because some warships were left to garrison the colonies to deal with emergencies.

This time he only concentrated fifty steamships and one hundred sail battleships.

But even so, these advantages made him believe that this part of the troops was enough to destroy the Da Song fleet.

But they also have obvious disadvantages.

During the Japanese naval battle, the range and power of the Yan King warship were higher than theirs.

In addition, the cannon also uses flowering bullets.

For them, this is also a precedent for naval warfare.

Therefore, in order to deal with the King of Yan's warship, they also carried the flowering bullet this time.

However, since the flowering bullet cannot withstand high chamber pressure, its range is destined to be inferior to the Dasong fleet.

Regarding this issue, we decided to adopt close-fits tactics.

Now, he hopes that this tactic will work.

Then, they will be able to completely annihilate the Yan King fleet in this naval battle.

On the way to Yizhou, they met the Folang warship who came to ask for help again.

Learning that the Yan King fleet was besieging Manila, Malfoy smiled faintly and only ordered the Folang warship to join his fleet and head towards Yizhou.

On the way of sailing, they also encountered the Dasong Navy's reconnaissance ship.

Malfoy ignored it and continued to rush to Yizhou at full speed.

At this moment, he believed that Florence, Stedam, and Sam had already restrained some of the Dasong warships.

Even if it was discovered, the Dasong Navy of Yizhou could not inform their warships to return in time.

In six days, they arrived at the east side of Yizhou.

It is only one day's journey from Yizhou.

At this time, the Dasong Steamboat, which was responsible for the investigation, rushed back one day in advance and delivered the news to Gong Ying.

Yesterday, Gong Ying sent someone to Yancheng while sending someone south to Zhou Yi.

At the same time, he dispatched twelve sail warships and twelve steamships stationed in Yizhou to prepare for the enemy.

Ma Fuer's deception was successful, and Gong Ying sent eighteen sailing warships and eighteen steamships to deal with the Western Tu battleships that broke into the island chain.

When he learned that the main force of the Western Turkish coalition warship was coming towards Yizhou, it was too late.

"Forty-eight steamships and seventy sail warships, you just want to take down Yiyizhou, which is simply delusional." Wanghaicheng Office, Gong Ying looked at the chart on the wall, and a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

According to time calculation, if the Western Turkish coalition fleet targeted Yizhou, it would arrive today.

But he was not worried about this at all.

After pacifying Japan, Yizhou became an outpost for the Marines to head south.

Except for the Marines stationed in Japan and Ryukyu, the rest of the Marines are all here.

They could not conquer Yizhou.

So, the only thing to worry about is that his fleet can deal with nearly ten times the number of enemies.

After all, warships are cavalry on the sea.

Even if you can't take over Yizhou, you can land at any point in Yizhou due to its maritime mobility, causing damage to the coast.

This is something he doesn't want to see.

"Retreat without fighting is not my Gong Ying's style. Even if I can't beat them, I have to hold them back and wait for other warships to rush for help." Gong Ying slapped the table and made a decision.

The Battle of Japan established the psychological advantage of the Dasong Navy over the Western Land warships.

In front of their naval guns, the Western Tu warships were as fragile as a piece of paper.

"Hmph, as long as you appear on the initiative, you will lose." Gong Ying narrowed his eyes.

The fleet went south to lead out the Western Land fleet.
