Chapter 73 Northern Landing

The Huaihe Battle ended in an absolutely shocking way under the onlookers of various forces. No one in the world had ever thought that the 130,000 Yuan Dynasty's army was so vulnerable in front of the Communist He Army. This was definitely not because the Yuan Dynasty had become weaker. The performance of the Yuan army suppressing various small uprisings in recent years shows that they are still an army that can be fought. Since it is not that the Yuan army is too weak, it is that the Communist He Army is too strong. For a time, the term artillery appeared on the desks of many strengths. Future wars began to turn into firearms.

Development, but for the Communist Army, who now holds the Ma'anshan Iron Mine and Huainan Coal Mine, as long as the railway in the middle is completed, the technological spread of this degree is no longer relevant to the overall situation. Agricultural countries are absolutely unable to challenge industrial countries. After the republican government stabilized the implementation of the agricultural policy of the newly occupied land, the republican government prepared to recruit 100,000 young and middle-aged people from the newly occupied land to start the railway construction work of these 200 kilometers through training. Now 10,000 railway workers have been initially trained.

The Huaihe Battle had just come to an end. Cheng Pan came to discuss with Li He, the general manager of the railway construction. Now Li He is equivalent to the Prime Minister. He is now developing a series of production resource allocation plans for industrial departments such as steel shipbuilding machinery. Now he is personally responsible for the construction of this railway, eating, drinking and sleeping with the workers every day. Hundreds of surveying and mapping personnel and engineers were all snatched from the school. A few months ago, in order to grab a group of geometric mathematics graduates with Zhu Zichou, things were directly raised and Cheng Pan was judged. One was the need for artillery and the other was the necessary for railway construction. Finally, Cheng Pan proposed a compromise plan to let these people become artillery first, and then change careers after the war ended.

In the noise of laying rails around, Cheng Pan asked Li He in a harmonious voice: "Li He, what are the difficulties in railway construction now?" Li He, whose hair was messy, cut it short, his eyes were not wiped for a few days, and his body was sweaty and smelly, said bluntly: "There is no technical difficulty, but the inventory of rails is consumed too quickly, and the scale of trained railway workers has not increased yet. Commander-in-chief, I know that it is the war period, but I want to ask when the war will end? If the war is extended for three months, I will have to re-form a production plan." Facing the questioning of his students, Cheng Pan was not dissatisfied. In the army, he must ensure that the authority is strictly implemented, but objective laws in production are overwhelming, and the leadership is strong

Force command helps manage production, but once leaders need to maintain authority, that is the beginning of bureaucracy. Cheng Pan advocates this style of not considering official positions and asking questions in a blunt manner. Of course, this question still needs to be answered. Cheng Pan said: "Taiwan is ready. Five days later, the troops in central Anhui gathered in the sea and the battle to end this war will begin." Li He said: "I hope our army will win, but it is best to end the war before spring plowing. We only have two months." Cheng Pan said: "Don't worry about this. Whether it is successful or not, we will return immediately before spring plowing." After discussing a series of materials supply issues in the current territory, Cheng Pan did not disturb Li He's work and left, and he also had a lot of things to be busy with.

Since the end of the Huaihe Battle, the powerful Northern Republic Legion was dismembered. Only two divisions were left in Huainan to prevent troops. Most of the remaining troops were arranged to the western front. However, some elite troops began to move south along the Yangtze River, among which 300 artillery pieces and artillery soldiers who had just participated in the Huaihe Battle began to go out to Rugao and board the ship in an orderly manner. Not only artillery, but also 90% of the cavalry who participated in the Huaihe Battle participated in the landing battle. He Cheng was still in charge of Anhui Central and commanding up to 100,000 field troops to prevent the movements of the southwest of the Yuan army. However, some technical officers such as Zhu Zichou must leave the central part and also go out to sea to participate in this military operation.

Of course, the happiest thing after the operation started was General Lu Hai Lu, who was training 20,000 landing troops in Taiwan. Since the war started, he had been hearing the frequent reports of the Central War, and he always felt uncomfortable. When the news of his old competitor's victory in the Huaihe Battle came, Lu Hai felt all the ups and downs in his heart. On the one hand, seeing the Central War went smoothly, he always thought that he was not inferior to theirs, and was still training the troops here, and his heart was like a cat's claw. Of course, Lu Hai also knew that his current task was also very important. So he and Sun Tao classified all the depression as motivation to prepare to shine in the future. Lu Hai must also expect him to succeed against He Cheng, a competitor. Because it was already clear at the military meeting before the war that the Central War was successful, the greater the support for the next landing war. Therefore, this feeling of being forced to hope that the opponent will succeed without experience is unaware of it.

Now that Lu Hai understands that it is finally his turn to appear. Of course, Cheng Pan must go north with the army for some reason, but Cheng Pan will not compete for command with Lu Hai, so Lu Hai can fully show his talents in front of his superiors this time.

So in the East China Sea, thousands of sails competed. A huge landing fleet, a total of 375 ships with a minimum displacement of 500 tons and a maximum displacement of 2,000 tons, carried 25,000 people and began to head north along the Chinese coastline. For this battle, the Communist Army drove on Jeju Island to gather supplies three months ago. So the troops went north to Jeju Island and temporarily stayed. Waiting for the first batch of landing troops to occupy the landing site. Then, after landing, a large number of cavalry artillery began to advance towards Dadu with equipment.

At this time, on January 1, 1349 AD, this place called Tianjin, which later generations are now called Haijin Town, which became the transfer center for grain transportation. At the same time, a salt field was established. Since the Yuan Dynasty's sea route was cut off from the southern sea transportation of imperial grains was cut off by the Communist Navy, which was not as lively as in previous years, the court has now focused all its attention on the Huaihe River in Anhui. Recently, the court is discussing a plan to mobilize 300,000 troops from northern Shaanxi and other places to rehabilitate. Therefore, no one is concerned about the transfer of grains in Tianjin, which was once rich in oil and water. But this place soon became lively and attracted the attention of the whole country.

Gu Seer, the young master of the canal transport, was a Semi. Although he knew there was no work to do, he still looked at the sea as usual. Under the dazzling sunlight of the east rising sun, he reluctantly retracted his gaze and cursed himself with a few words to the thief who made him unemployed. When he was about to leave, he suddenly swept away a black spot on the sea surface with his own light. He quickly rubbed his eyes. He squinted his eyes in the dazzling sunlight and confirmed carefully that it was yes, it was the sea ship, and the imperial grain must have been transported from the south. He began to shout loudly. Soon more people began to notice the situation on the sea, and the entire Haijin Town began to

Filled with joy, the general manager of Bacul, Haijin Town, was surprised when he heard the arrival of the imperial grain transported by sea. It was unreasonable. He didn't hear any good news from the imperial court in the south recently. He was fat and big-headed and quickly climbed to the observation deck and raised the telescope he bought from the merchants of the Western Regions. Yes, there were indeed a large number of ships in the distance, about forty, all of which were large sea boats. But he turned his eyes up, and the sickle and hammer flag fluttered in the wind in the sea breeze. A valuable telescope landed on the ground. A shrill cry of "enemy attack" came from the mouth of this fat man.

The commanders of this group of pioneer landing fleets are Sun Tao, the current highest commander of the Republic Navy. He is now fighting against the wind. He finally sees the target. Ten battleships with displacement of 1,200 tons have begun to line up. At this time, in Sun Tao's telescope, Haijin Town is very lively and full of people running around with guns and scimitars. Sun Tao said: "It seems that the opponent already knows our identity. He ordered the combat fleet to prepare for battle and use explosive bombs to destroy the ships on the shore first."

The speechman's command, the Republic Fleet began to attack. Ten fleets of 200 artillery fired. The wooden ships docked on the shore quickly became a torch. These ships had no work to work and were idle in the port. Now, some people were about to set sail and were destroyed by artillery fire from afar. After more than a dozen wooden ships were knocked out as targets, the shells on the fleet began to name all the fortress-like buildings in Haijin Town. Under the fierce shells, Haijin Town, which has a history of hundreds of years, experienced a catastrophe.

After a cannon, the people on the shore had already run away. With the determination of the small boat measuring the depth, half an hour later, a division's army began to land and effectively occupied the port. At this time, the news of the landing of the Communist Party's army had reached the ears of the nearby defenders. Just like the first time China suffered a sea attack in the original time and space, the Yuan army's first reaction to the news that the Communist Party's army came from the sea was that they could not believe it. They thought it was a pirate. In any case, a team of ten thousand people rushed to the site of the incident. After confirming the situation,

Backwards rushed towards the position of the Gonghe Army, which had just landed on 2,500 people, but they were baptized by naval guns. In the history of wars in the original time and space, the power of artillery was arranged from small to large in order, namely infantry guns, naval guns, and fortress guns. The reason why the power of fortress guns was stronger than that of naval guns was that the weight and recoil force of the fortress guns could be borne by the earth. Therefore, fortress guns could be made larger than naval guns, and the power of naval guns was greater than that of infantry guns because the traction of the ship was much greater than that of the army on the ground, so naval guns could be stronger than infantry guns. Of course, the train guns were not allowed.

After two hundred 120 mm caliber guns were replaced with shrapnel, they bombarded the 10,000 team that charged forward. This scene was the same as the German army's preparations to attack the fleet in history. The cavalry unit was shot out by the sail battleship and ran away with shrapnel. A small number of cavalry were killed by this round of artillery fire and continued to rush towards the landing troops, and they were greeted by six consecutive paper-shaped bullets of each gun.

On January 1, 1349 AD, under the cover of the fleet, the 7th Division of the Communist He Army successfully landed at the mouth of the Haihe River in Tianjin. This action of the Communist He Army quickly shocked the Yuan Dynasty and the people who were 100 kilometers away. The war burned to their pillows in a way that the Mongol Empire could not have imagined.

Regarding the completely unreasonable attack method that was not in the history books of the Communist He Army, the Yuan Dynasty suddenly found that their troops were mobilized thousands of miles across northern China, which was completely useless. No one thought it was a pirate-like plundering harassment. The rapid destruction of a 10,000 cavalry team made the Yuan Dynasty extremely nervous. One official document was transmitted to all directions, which meant "rescue the king and rescue the horse". All China was frightened by the action of the Communist He Army. Through sea transportation, it was sent thousands of miles to the enemy's capital city. How could the word "ox" be so good?

But now login is just a success, and a bigger battle is coming.
