Chapter 1221: Korean landing

"Tell me about your tactics." Xiang Yan said calmly.

"I have such an idea. If we act as a merchant ship to enter their port. A sneak attack from the inside. We can succeed." The captain said excitedly. However, Xiang Yan did not show a look of excitement at this time. Instead, she frowned.

"Such a plan is too risky." Xiang Yan said, shaking his head.

"A warship, how many people can there be, up to more than one hundred. And only the medium-sized warship can enter the port. It can't hold many people?" Xiang Yan said.

"A stronghold has at least a few hundred people. It is very difficult to control. We have to sneak in and not unload the cargo, and it will attract the other party's attention. This is too suspicious. I think. A ship is impossible to complete. This kind of task. And there is. We don't know anything about those strongholds. Acting like this hastily. The possibility of failure is very high. We need to find out the situation of the other party before we can act." Xiang Yan said after thinking.

"What the general said is." The captain said with his hands folded at this time.

"It is impossible for one ship to complete such a task. We need at least four warships to complete it. In addition, there are other auxiliary ships to complete." Xiang Yan said while looking at the navigation map.

"However, it is good to have such an idea. Next, we have to find out the situation of the other party and start the action. It seems that we have to form a team as Qin Guo said to complete a task." Xiang Yan said.

"Yes. General," said the captain.

"This task is left to you to complete. You have to mobilize the ships." Xiang Yan gave the order in this way.

"I will obey," the captain said excitedly.

Chu's navy developed rapidly, especially overseas. They continued to rob merchant ships and transformed them into war ships. This expansion is very amazing. Moreover, the Looting Battleship itself robbed some supplies. These materials were sold again. Let them immediately transform into fiscal revenue, and the rapid expansion of fiscal revenue quickly expanded the Chu State Navy. The Chu State Navy purchased a large number of artillery. And all kinds of weapons, although they can't build warships by themselves. But the converted warship is also very amazing.

Relying on this income, Chu's naval forces expanded rapidly. Just when the Chu State's navy was expanding. South Korea has also made some major breakthroughs in navigation. This breakthrough has great strategic significance.

"How many more days do we need to advance like this?" a trainee officer on the Korean warship aboard the Queen of Korea asked the first officer impatiently. The chief mate held the telescope and kept looking around.

At this time, the captain looked around with a telescope like the chief officer.

"Don't ask casually." At this moment, an old sailor standing aside whispered to the trainee officer.

The trainee officer system. Comes from Qin State. The State of Qin attaches great importance to the training of military officers. Therefore, a large number of military academies graduate every three months, but there are not so many military positions available for them. There are only two solutions. One is to extend the study time. And the other one is. Increase the time for apprenticeship. Extended study time is increasing. Qin's military school graduation time has been slowly extended to one to two and a half years. The main reason is that there are more learners of technical arms. And the army. With the exception of artillery, engineers and technical arms, infantry has a shorter learning time. A large number of officers entered the army as trainee officers to learn how to fight. These trainee officers showed great bravery. Because they are future officers and only perform well. In order to obtain a formal military rank. The trainee officer is between the officer and the soldier. They fought fiercely, but they had no experience at all. Command was not a command at all, and it would be thank good if it didn't cause trouble.

However, the role of trainee officers is very obvious. That is, a large number of trainee officers have been trained for the army. Officers are undoubtedly the backbone of a combat force, and this is far more important than establishing a large-scale army.

The Korean military system originated from the Qin Army. The trainee officer system naturally continued. The trainee officers are the generals of the future. This is not bad at all. They are very motivated. Learning ability, understanding ability. It's also very strong. Those seasoned veterans and commanders will teach something to some extent, because they are stupid. I will do whatever I say. Because they are future officers. Know everything. Know everything and learn. This is the trainee officer.

"Why?" the trainee officer asked at this time.

"The captain and the chief mate are deciding important things. If you keep asking like this, you will probably be sent to do dirty work. At this time. Especially when making decisions. You'd better shut up. Learn to be silent. That way. It's easy to think." The old sailor whispered at this time.

At this time, the captain put down the telescope in his hand and checked the nautical chart. The nautical map was very detailed where they passed, but in front of them was an unknown area.

"The situation is unknown." The first officer put down the telescope in his hand and said.

"It's true." The captain said at this time.

"However, we did nothing wrong." The captain continued.

"From the nautical map given to us above. Our direction is not wrong. We have been moving in that direction. The most important point is." The captain said at this time.

"The above said that the island is very big. If the above is correct, as long as we are in the right direction, then we may encounter that island, and the direction we entered is approximately in the middle of this direction. We It should be correct." The captain said confidently.

"I think we will sail for another three days. If we can't find it. We have to think about it and return. It is too dangerous to go on like this." The chief officer said at this time.

"En" the captain said while looking at the map.

At this time, the first officer continued to pick up the telescope and look at the situation in the distance. Their supply situation is not optimistic. They are warships, and the ships are very big. They captured two pirate ships along the way, but they released the pirates. This greatly increases their danger. Therefore, they have been drifting in the depths of the sea. In order to avoid the attacks of those pirates, those pirate ships, that is, all the Chu State ships were afraid to enter these deep sea areas, the reason is very simple, they are very afraid of getting in and out. This requires a great risk. Therefore, the deep sea area has become their safe area.

The captain looked at the nautical map calmly at this time, but he was under unprecedented pressure deep down in his heart. He was responsible for the entire ship’s people. If the decision was wrong, then the ship’s people are likely to be fish feeders .

"Coastline. A coastline appears ahead." Just when the captain was lost in thought. A sailor at the lookout shouted loudly.

"Coastline. A coastline appears ahead. It's very long." The sailor shouted at this time.

Hear this. The captain and chief mate glanced at each other.

"Haha" the captain. At this time, he laughed first.

Although the two people didn't say anything clearly. However, they understood very well that they succeeded. They found the island. It's probably the island on the map.

"Okay. Boys." The captain called out loud at this time.

"Full sail. Full book advance. That island is ours. We found the island we should have discovered. Advance. Queen." The captain roared loudly at this time. Then he waved his hat vigorously.

"Go forward. The whole book goes forward." All the captains roared loudly at this time.

"Sir. Look at the Queen. They are advancing with full sails. I don't know what happened to them?" The first officer turned around and said to the captain behind at this time. The Korean warship Independence was closely followed.

"Look above, what's going on ahead?" At this time. The captain roared loudly.

"The code communication appeared earlier." This time. The first officer said immediately.

The front immediately used Morse code telegram messages to transmit information. They flashed incessantly with a mirror. In this way, different messages are expressed.

"Record it." The captain said at this time.

"The coastline was found ahead." At this time the sailor on the lookout shouted loudly.

"What?" the captain on the Independence shouted loudly.

"Discover the coastline." At this time, the sailor shouted loudly to the people below.

"Oh. My goodness." The chief mate of Independence looked at the captain in surprise.

"Is it?" the first officer asked suspiciously.

"We follow them closely." This time. The captain shouted loudly.

"Go forward. Go forward." The captain then gave the order.

"Go forward." The captain shouted at this time.

"Full sail. Go forward." The sailors immediately followed the Queen in front of them and started their actions.

"Soldiers who landed. Get bayonet." The captain called loudly at this time.

"Wow." Fifty soldiers swiftly pressed their bayonets to their rifles at this time.

"The island in front. It is an unknown number. Everything can happen. However, our ambitions cannot be frightened." The captain shouted loudly as he walked back and forth at this time.

"Go forward. Go forward at all costs. All those who stand in front of us. We must crush them all at all costs." The captain shouted with a strong fist at this time.

"Kill. Kill. Kill." Fifty sailors with bayonets shouted loudly.

"Okay. Ready to land." The captain roared loudly. The Queen is getting closer and closer to the unknown island. Everything ahead is unknown. These situations are for them. It's all a challenge.
