Sweep the World

Chapter 536: : Stumbling

Fu Wei urgently needs someone to tell himself what the **** is the weather here in the Southwest Sea!

Because of the weather, the southward invasion of the Southwest Peninsula had to be interrupted several times before it really started. Each time it was a sudden change in the weather, and it wasn't because the opponents who were about to fight had resorted to any means.

There is no name on the island chain. The largest island has an anchored fleet in the bay on the west side. Only a small part of the soldiers got on the island, and the rest remained on board.

In the stormy weather, it is not easy to go ashore, especially if there is no ferry. Otherwise, it is necessary to leave some necessary personnel to let the soldiers who are not suitable for HNA come ashore to take a breather.

It's just breathing. The ship shook too much in the stormy waters. In such an age when even riding in a carriage can make people dizzy, the continuous violent shaking of the ship makes it impossible for people who are not to adapt to it.

The more the fleet anchored in the bay for about half an hour, the storm came as soon as it came, and it was very willful and said to leave and leave. The next moment the sea area turned into a clear sky, if not for the embarrassed appearance of the ship. , People’s discomfort has not yet passed, it will inevitably make people at a loss whether what happened just now is an illusion.

"It's like this in spring." Yuan Fang should be the one who knows the weather in the southwestern seas the most among the many officers. He said: "Summer will be relatively better..."

Spring is not suitable for invading the Southwest Peninsula. Yuan Fang wanted to state this fact more than once. He saw that Fu Wei, the commander of the fleet, showed no signs of giving up, and could not say anything to dissuade him.

"How many soldiers can maintain the state?" Fu Wei asked Wang Shan, who was his lieutenant: "Can the warship lose?"

Wang Shan has just sent officers to patrol the ships, and he has a rough data on hand. He replied: "The warship has not suffered much damage. Only the sails and nooses of the twenty-odd ships have problems. Our soldiers. More than 70% temporarily lost the ability to land operations. Those family private armies...they lost twelve ships, and no more than 10% were able to fight."

The country’s warships are basically produced systematically, and the quality of the ships produced by the system can still be guaranteed. The ships of each family are not produced systematically, but are produced by various shipyards officially owned by the Han State.

"That is to say... there are less than a thousand people together?" Fu Wei just vomited to death, insisting on insisting. He can understand that he is like this, and the rest of the people are absolutely unbearable. He is both depressed and gratified that he can maintain the combat power of about a thousand people: "One Han is a five-hu, and the Southwest barbarian is even more unbearable. A thousand people should be enough. ."

Wang Kan didn't make any statement. Since Fu Wei still insisted on the invasion operation, he would just fight it. If the situation was wrong, he would return to the ship. After all, the fleet had almost no losses. What is strange to him is that the quality of the sailors of the warship is surprisingly good. Since Han can train such excellent sailors, how could the sailing quality of the sailors be so bad.

The storm disappeared without a trace, and those in the fleet who stayed on the ship may lose their lives. Fu Wei's decision is to let the soldiers who have lost their fighting capacity go to the island first. It is not only to rest but also to build a camp. Obviously, the island is regarded as an invasion. Linyi's springboard to the sea.

This island is less than sixty miles away from the mainland, and on the north side is a bay in Linyi State. It was Xijuan (modern Guangzhi), the capital of Nichinan County during the Western Han Dynasty, and further west was a place with many islands facing the sea.

I have to say that the topography of the island is really good as a springboard. Even if there are mountains, the altitude of the island is very low. Most of the terrain is flat. It looks like the center of the island is full of dense forest and the outer coastal environment. It is not difficult, especially the environment on the west side of the bay and the south side of the beach is still very good.

The people who should disembark went to the island, and the fleet set sail again. With a downwind and strong wind, the horizon of the mainland could soon be seen.

Looking from the sea to the mainland, all you can see is a dark green. It seems that the place where you can see is plants or plants, and there are very few traces of human activities.

"Fans are not good at construction, and they can stop and rest by finding trees at will." Yuan Fang explained: "They have the habit of going out to sea to fish. There are not few fishing villages along the coast, but because there are typhoons every year, fishing villages will choose On the back of some mountains."

It is strange to say that it seems that the Asian continent does not pay much attention to HNA. It clearly has a long coastline, but the technology line of HNA ships has not been "lighted up." Among them, the Central Plains dynasty is the most bizarre. For example, even if the HNA ships are not more developed than Europa, they can sweep the waters many times, but they have to carry out some prohibition on the sea.

Lin Yiguo is a small country. Considering the small country's territory, they are blocked by mountains to the north, and the south is full of the sea, but they have not developed much advanced shipbuilding technology.

"Boats?" Yuan Fang answered all questions: "There is no fleet in Linyi, and the boats were built after imitating the Tianyi Dynasty. They used boats in general, very small boats."

Many facts are so unreasonable. For example, Rome, the most powerful empire of Europa, regarded the Mediterranean as a footbath, but in fact they did not develop a powerful warship system.

Rome’s HNA uses boats, but this boat is a bit too big. Their war boat is a continuation of the Greek civilization system. The body of the war boat is flat and long with only one mast. As a result, there is only one layer on the upper layer, and only one layer on the bottom of the ship. The warship itself does not have any long-range attack weapons. In a water battle, either the archer is responsible for the output, and the main method is collision. No matter how you collide, after the enemy and us are connected, it will be a gang warfare, which is equivalent to using the boat under your feet as a footboard, and the style of play is still the same as that on land.

One thing I have to say is that the Mediterranean as an inland sea has a very mild climate, but throughout the history of Roman rule of the Mediterranean, they lost a lot in the Mediterranean because of the ship system, and every large number of sea transporters would have to lose a lot of money. War boat and personnel.

The fleet that belongs to the Han army, the number is like more than a hundred ships, because it needs to be spaced a little apart, it actually takes up a lot of space on the sea. Their appearance does not belong to quietness. When they can see the land clearly, the people on the land can actually see clearly.

On the coastline, I don’t know how many indigenous people were stunned when they saw a huge fleet sailing on the sea.

Isn’t it ignorance that the natives are natives? Perhaps some of them have seen huge warships, but they will never see much. Once the number of warships is slightly larger, their little heads will immediately feel completely different.

The closer you get to the land, the more things the Han fleet will be able to discover, not only the scenery on the land, but also the moving objects not far from the coastline.

"That is the boat used by barbarians for fishing?" Fu Wei was on the bridge, raised his hand to the boat that could only allow up to two people to stand, and found from a distance that it was just a primitive floating tool for hollowing out the wood: "They shouldn't Is it yelling in panic and then fleeing?"

The fact is that whether it is on land or at sea, it may be that the Han fleet appeared too shocked. It was completely frightened by the size of the fleet and the size of the warships. Seeing the emergence of the Han fleet, one of the indigenous people is considered to be one of them. Looks dazed.

The invasion of Han using fleets first occurred in the East China Sea. The first victim was the country of Baekje. Fu Wei was still a small army officer at the grassroots level. What he saw was the appearance of Baekje fishermen fleeing in panic.

The warship sailing in the forefront did not evade the indigenous small boat that was blocking the route, but directly ran into it.

The collision process was very tasteless. The indigenous people on the small boat screamed in horror until they were hit. Some jumped into the water and stayed on the boat. Without exception, they were "plowed" by the Han army. The boat became a piece of wood, and the Han army didn't care if there were any dead people.

After the impact, the aboriginals in the distance finally recovered a bit, and Fu Wei saw the scenes of barbarians fleeing in panic as he wished.

As an intruder, what I like most is seeing all kinds of shock and embarrassment of the invaded objects. Otherwise, how boring the invasion would be. However, the boring invasion was encountered by the Han army, and the target was the Japanese people on the Wa Islands.

"...The Japanese people at the time were also stupid, worse than the barbarians in the southwest. The Japanese people just kneel down and worship." Fu Wei was talking about the old incident of the Han fleet invading the Wa Islands. He said somewhat complicatedly: " I look down on the Japanese very much, but I like the obedience of the Japanese. I hope these barbarians can be more like Japanese."

The Han country does not understand the culture on the Wa Islands, nor does it have any interest in understanding it.

There is a belief system of "all things are gods" on the islands of the Japanese Islands. It can even be said that as long as the Japanese people feel that they are strong, they are "gods." This kind of belief culture has a kind of **** thinking. On the contrary, serving the strong is something that the weak consider extremely glorious, but when encountering people who are weaker than themselves...

The arrival of the Han fleet shocked the indigenous people. After seeing what happened on the sea, most of the indigenous people were not afraid or became savage. They began to rush into the dense forest like monkeys, watching and running while watching. The ghost roar should be calling people.

The place where the fleet appears is not in the bay, but near the bay. The beach here is a normal terrain with sloping continents. Ships with a deep draft cannot directly dock at the coast. The way-exploring ships even find that they are shoals about a hundred steps closer to the coastline.

The coastline of the South China Sea is basically shallow, and the natural environment makes it an ideal holiday destination. Only in some bay locations will there be deep waters on the shore.

The fleet headed towards the bay. When sailing, there was a ship hitting the rocks, not just a ship hitting the rocks, making the generals on the flagship frowned.

There are indeed more reefs in the sea near the coast, which is why it is more dangerous to sail along the coast.

HNA has always been not so simple. Which sea area is safer and what route will be faster. It has always been through continuous exploration.

There is too much knowledge about sea navigation, and it is the most difficult to judge the position. What is the monsoon situation is related to the speed of navigation, and the ocean currents are also a big key.

For example, there is an ocean current in the East China Sea and the Korean Peninsula to the Wa Islands. Finding the right location, even if you just hang a few gourds on your waist, can cross the ocean smoothly.

For the current Han country, HNA can only be said to be in the groping stage. The most familiar is of course the East China Sea, followed by the area called the Sea of ​​Japan in later generations, and it is the first time to come to the South China Sea.

Of course, there will not be any Sea of ​​Japan in the future. The name of Han is "cross-sea", which means to cross the sea.

The Han country, which is completely unfamiliar to Nanyang, had the goal of invasion from the beginning, and it really launched an invasion immediately. There is a saying specifically used to describe it, that is, the ignorant is fearless.

To be reasonable, cross-sea operations are all first to carry out long-term investigation and exploration, at least to understand the maritime situation of the area you want to invade, and then arrange targeted invasion plans based on the local climate and national strength.

Starting from the Western Han Dynasty, the Hmong people of the Han family became rude towards invasions. It was because they had absolute confidence in their own ethnic group. They just rushed over and killed them, regardless of the other party’s behavior. However, this kind of invasion plan has been successful all the time. It's so powerful that it doesn't make sense.

This time the Han Dynasty invaded the Southwest Peninsula. It was basically a matter that the central group of people decided with their heads. As the initiator, it was Liu Yan. The main goal of the invasion was to rob food.

After getting the report, it was only a voyage less than ten miles away, but thirteen warships hit the rocks. At that moment, Fu Wei's face was almost completely black.

"The attack is carried out according to the established plan!" Fu Wei's warship has sailed into the bay, but there are soldiers in front of him who have not encountered any resistance and successfully landed: "It is best to catch some people who can speak Chinese~www.wuxiamtl.com~ We need to understand this sea area well."

It seems that Lin Yiguo never thought that there would be enemies coming from the sea. The Han army did not encounter any resistance when they landed, so they went ashore very easily, and then marched towards the surrounding villages.

Next, the landing Han army attacked several villages in succession. Although the local indigenous people resisted, it did not pose any threat to the Han army at all.

"The looting of the village is a success, but the food obtained is not as much as expected." Fu Wei said with a sullen face: "Just want to grab a piece of cloth... it's not easy."

Fu Wei was simply too worried. The troops who went out kept sending messages back. What they encountered was a bunch of aboriginals who were so poor that they had few houses, rice jars and so on. They didn't even find food in stock at all.

Only at this time did Yuan Fang learn the fact that the fleet going south was mainly to obtain grain. He found an opportunity and said to Fu Wei: "The people in Linyi are very poor, and the local barbarians are very lazy, and there is no concept of storing grain. If so, If you want to obtain food, especially a large amount of food, you can only obtain it by capturing the big city. If you want to obtain more food, you actually force the Linyi royal family to actively offer the most efficient."
