Chapter 753 The Wind Rises

"Damn it!"

A breeze swept up the yellow sand on the battlefield and swept past the camp.

Ram clenched his fists. The trench in the distance was like a man-eating beast, and the spurs in front of the trench were like the fangs of this beast.

His Khan was wise. This attack was more of a test.

The firearms of the Yan Wang army seemed to be stronger than those in the Ningjin Dusi battle.

With the trench positions dug in front of him, he could not break through at all.

"You should thank us Beidi for resisting the Yan Wang for you, otherwise the land you took will eventually be lost." Ram waved his hand, indicating the withdrawal of troops, and reminded Orski at the same time.

This is a provocation.

At present, the Russian State still has reservations about them, which makes them feel unhappy.

Now that they have seen the power of the Yan Wang army with their own eyes, they will surely change their minds.

Although they were frustrated in front of Qingbo Bridge, it would be worth it if they could win greater support from the Russian State.

"Withdraw now?"

On Qingbo Bridge, Yang Zhen noticed the movements of the Beidi army and shook his head slightly.

He wanted to give the Northern Di army in front of him a good beating.

However, he did not order a pursuit.

His mission was to defend Qingbo Bridge, and there must be no mistakes.

Otherwise, the royal army in Goryeo would be attacked from both sides.

After watching the Northern Di army withdraw, he returned to Qingbo Bridge and sat on a chair to study the textbook compiled by the King of Yan.

At the same time, Qinghe County.

Zhao Xu was observing the British warships and steamships on the sea through a telescope.

The strategy of harassing the East Earth Allied Fleet by the navy and taking the opportunity to attack on land was determined.

He went south from Rangcheng and arrived in Qinghe County.

However, the wind conditions these days were not conducive to the Yanzhou Navy's operations.

Zhou Yi has not yet launched an attack on the joint fleet.

"It's really frustrating. There is not even a breeze all day long. How long do we have to wait?" Chang Wei wanted to deal with the remaining East Earth Allied Forces now.

After the ambush at Fengming Mountain and the battle of Rangcheng.

There were only about 130,000 people left in the East Earth Allied Forces, crowded on the coast of Qinghe County.

However, since Japan can continuously deliver food and grass to the dock through the sea transport line.

The East Earth Alliance can confront them for a long time.

"Good food is not afraid of being late." Zhao Xu said lightly.

The weather is always unpredictable. There has been no wind in the past few days, and it may be windy next day.

Waited for another three days.

Zhao Xu received Yang Zhen's battle report. They prevented Beidi from entering Goryeo.

He felt a little relieved about this.

In this way, he can concentrate on dealing with the East Earth Alliance.

Two more days passed.

This day, Zhao Xu was discussing with the generals how to attack the trench position on the coast.

Suddenly, the flags inserted in the trenches fluttered.

"Your Highness, it's the south wind." Chang Wei's eyes suddenly lit up.

Zhao Xu looked at the military flag and smiled. He nodded slowly, "Zhou Yi will definitely launch a surprise attack today. As long as the British warships move away, he will launch an attack."

"Yes." Chang Wei and other generals responded.

…

The vast sea was full of waves.

Thirty-six sailing warships were divided into two teams and headed for the sea area of ​​Qinghe County.

When the south wind suddenly rose, Zhou Yi ordered the fleet to set sail from Treasure Island.

He had been waiting for this day since he received the order from the King of Yan.

Although the fleet of the East Earth Alliance had steamships, this did not scare him.

After joining the navy, he was ready to sacrifice at any time.

Even in the face of a strong enemy, as long as the King of Yan gave an order, he still had the courage to fight with it.

After another night of sailing, the fleet arrived in the sea area of ​​Qinghe County.

At this time, they found the warships of the Wu Kingdom that were patrolling nearby.

"Attack them!" Zhou Yi shouted.

His mission was to force the British warships out of the bay.

So, their actions were naturally fierce.

After receiving his order, flags of different colors were raised on the battlefield, which was to convey orders to other warships.

Then, the thirty-six warships moved at full speed towards the bay.

One group of warships approached the exit of the bay, while the other group of warships continued to detour northward, forming an outflanking trend.

Although the order given to him by the King of Yan was to harass.

However, in the process of harassment, it could easily turn into a full-scale battle.

He had to be extremely alert and face this mission with a formal naval battle.

The patrolling warships of the Wu Kingdom soon discovered the approaching Yanzhou warships.

Some warships immediately retreated to the bay, while others headed towards Japan.

"Crazy, crazy, the warships of the King of Yan dared to attack our joint fleet."

On a Wu warship that fled to the bay, the naval commander in charge of the warships looked incredible.

In the Battle of Yangcheng, the British steamship entered Jiujiang, and the King of Yan could not have been unaware of it.

He thought that the steamship would scare the King of Yan and it would be impossible for his fleet to compete with the British.

What's more, this time there were 200 warships from his Wu Kingdom to help.

However, the Yanzhou fleet appeared, and it was ready to fight them to the death.

"Hurry up and inform the British, something big is going to happen." Although the Wu navy commander was nervous, he was not afraid.

The British were in the bay, and he firmly believed that the British fleet could easily defeat the Yan Wang fleet.

As for him, he did not dare to fight the Yan Wang fleet for the time being.

Their Wu warships were small and could only carry eight cannons, four on each side.

Unless 200 warships act at the same time, three or five warships cannot fight against the warships of Yanzhou.

Entering the bay, he sailed straight towards the British warships.

Delivered this news to Wolfe.

"What!" Wolfe felt bad when he heard it, and immediately ordered the warships to go to the exit of the bay.

If the warships of King Yan blocked the exit of the bay and aimed the side guns at the bay.

They will lose the mobility advantage brought by steamships.

Because no matter how they maneuver, they will eventually be in the bay.

And the warships of King Yan are like setting up thousands of artillery at the mouth of the bay, how can they resist.

Therefore, they must not let the fleet of King Yan block the mouth of the bay.

"Lieutenant Wolfe, this can't be done. If your warships leave, what will happen to the 130,000 coalition soldiers on the coast?" Yamada Haruno was anxious.

Wolfe said coldly: "If the entrance to the bay falls into the hands of King Yan, not only 130,000 alliance soldiers, but also British warships, will all be buried here."

In Wolfe's eyes, whether it is the Japanese or the Dasong people, they are just as lowly as the natives in the colony.

He can use these natives to fight each other and gain benefits.

But he definitely doesn't want to sacrifice his life and fleet.

If this naval battle goes smoothly, it's fine.

If it's not good, he will lead the fleet to escape immediately.

"You..." Yamada Haruno wanted to get angry, but he suppressed it. He didn't dare to offend the British, especially at this time.

Looking at the coast, his eyes slowly closed.
