"boom!"

With a cannon before dawn, the Ming Dynasty's official army launched the first wave of attack on Nan'ao Island. ~ Chinese ~ novel... A total of 85 ships set off from Taiao Island at the fifth day. When the rising sun rose, the vanguard fleet had already landed.

Chen Xi had never dared to let the officers and soldiers "play freely" because he was afraid that the soldiers would lose a lot. First, he was not good at explaining to the court, second, he failed the trust of the officers and soldiers and their families, and third, the pension for the fallen soldiers was a large amount. With the current weak financial foundation, too many people might go bankrupt.

But this time Chen Xi figured it out and always planned everything well and let the officers and soldiers implement it step by step according to the plan. Then this army will never grow into a brave and war-friendly army, and the generals and soldiers will not become good generals and elite soldiers. They will only become bureaucrats and veterans in the army, and live a life of silence.

Instead of doing this, it is better to let go boldly and let the soldiers perform freely. He stood in the distance, like an exercise commander, allowing the officers and soldiers to use their skills as much as possible.

If there is any loss, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is to achieve the goal of training. Soldiers who have not experienced the threat of death are unlikely to undergo a qualitative transformation. Now they are unable to resist just facing a group of pirates. What if they encounter Tatars or well-equipped Japanese pirates?

At this time, if you don’t crawl out of the pile of dead people and continue fighting, then tomorrow others will walk by your body.

Under the system of joint seats, the officers and soldiers knew that the hundreds of households were a battalion, and everything was around this battalion, with great potential and command. With various information about the situation on the island, the rest depends on their understanding of the battle situation and it is unknown how many people could come down from the island in a hurry.

The red sun rose from the sea level in the east, and the Ming soldiers had launched an attack at the same time from the northwest of Nan'ao Island to four locations in Houjiangwan.

These four directions are responsible by four thousand households.

There were about 800 soldiers, that is, each thousand-household office left a Baihu battalion as the guards and gunners of Chenxi. On the ship, there were 400 people left behind on the Da'ao Island and the East Reef Barracks by the Huanggang Sea, and the rest were dispatched in full swing.

Now Shen Xi has given four thousand households the same opportunity, it depends on whether they can complete their errands successfully.

Because Tai O Island and Nan O Island are not far away, even small boats are guaranteed to cross, so the army set off almost at the same time. The first batch of small boats landed, and the vanguards of each thousand house were three hundred houses.

Then the boat returned to the big ship and loaded the second batch of people from the big ship. There were also three hundred households in each thousand households, which was about one thousand two hundred soldiers landed on the shore.

The first batch of officers and soldiers who landed on the island set up the camp and built the fortifications at the same time, they headed inland; the third batch of two officers and soldiers from the 100-household offices landed on a small boat, and the third batch of people came to the island with eight Folang machine cannons, and two camps were deployed in each thousand-household office.

It's like a relay triathlon competition.

After landing on the island, the established action is first completed, which is to establish camps and build fortifications. According to the terrain, log wood and dig pits, bury traps, and pile up mud and stones to create commanding heights, so that the archers can shoot when retreating.

Even if the camp falls and builds fortifications, you cannot charge directly. You have to wait for the subsequent relays to land before heading inland.

Taking a battalion like the Baihu Institute as an operation unit, each battalion has silk ribbons of different colors on its collars. This is to facilitate the identification of their brothers. At the same time, the Baihu, General Flag, Xiaoqi and others who lead the team should always pay attention to whether the soldiers around you have deserters or are injured and unable to move forward. Because Chen Xi said that missing soldiers are calculated based on deserters. No matter how fiercely you are in the robbery, no matter how much money, grain and materials you rob, as long as a soldier does not follow the team, you may have to hand over your spoils to others.

Although the third batch of soldiers has a small number, it is the most critical group. They will carry a large number of Folang machine cannons, unscrupulous cannons and supporting explosives to the shore.

After the third batch of 200 troops built their camps, one of the Baihu Battalions was left to guard the coast and defend the camps, and the other one of the Baihu Battalions joined the attack as the team behind the hall.

Although Chenxi had not reached the island, he was watching what was happening on the island with a telescope on a large ship, and the battle situation was estimated to be progressing.

In a blink of an eye, the battle to attack the island has been going on for two hours.

The war is still in progress. Since it was the era of cold weapons, twenty-eight hundred-household battalions plunged into the island and lost information.

The area of ​​Nan'ao Island is not comparable to that of Tai'ao Island. Chen Xi's expectations for this war are two days. On the first day, it is tentative attacks and surveys, all of which are all based on the free performance of the hundreds of households. On the second day, the team is integrated and the key strikes are launched to break through the island's thieves one by one.

At the second hour of noon, Chen Xi led some personal guards to the island for inspection. He was holding a wooden board in his hand, and paper was nailed with wooden nails to facilitate his recording.

Chen Xi counted the advantages and disadvantages of each camp, evaluated the officers and soldiers' attacks, defenses, and intelligence acquisition. After the war, detailed data were listed, so that the participating soldiers would know which link they won or where they were inadequate.

After the rules are formulated, the most important thing is to convince the superiors and subordinates, rather than Chen Xi’s words that which team is better, others should blindly believe it. The more veterans are, the more they will feel that there are many things that are privately taught in the army. They are born with a skeptical look. Chen Xi does not want to make a real contribution in this regard.

In the past, when encountering war, soldiers rushed to guard the camp because the camp was relatively safe and they were comfortable to stay in the rear. They waited for others to take care of themselves and had military achievements.

But in this war, the officers and soldiers wished they could charge forward, so the four hundred households left behind the camp complained that others had burned, killed and looted, but we stayed behind the camp. Half of the others' achievements and robbed were ours, but we were watching others rob them. How much does it mean?

The soldiers in the army knew that pirates were an "industry" that made money quickly. In their eyes, the island was a mountain of gold and silver, and the Shenxi River was so famous that it was almost destroyed or destroyed after a series of wars. Now it was like there was only silver falling in front of them, but they could not bend down to pick it up, which was indescribable.

When the soldiers guarding the camp saw Chen Xi, they cheered up one by one. Many hundreds of households came to ask for battle, but were rejected by Chen Xi.

"You are here to serve in the army, not as thieves. If you guard the camp well, you will receive rewards." Chen Xi's tone cannot be questioned.

But the soldiers guarding the camp were still unwilling to give up. Each of them could station a camp with a thousand people. Now there were only a hundred people left. The fortifications around them seemed a little unnecessary. Even if Chen Xi promised a reward, they would rather go and fight to the battle than sit back and enjoy the fruits.

"Sir, there seems to be a signal coming over there. Should we send reinforcements?" The scout who was standing at a high place was responsible for investigating the situation and reported it.
