Black smoke covered the sun, and the navy division won the victory over the Song navy division and destroyed the state navy division.
In this campaign, the army captured more than 110 Song Jun warships and captured more than 1,700 Song sailors.
At this time, it is April 10, and the Japanese army has not hit the Yangtze River at this moment, but the water army has been destroyed. The main force of the naval division in the Southern Song Dynasty has hit the Suzhou Ocean Passage, which can directly threaten Lin’ an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty
However, considering that you have thousands of troops at your fingertips, the water war is of course a must, but the land war is slightly insufficient
Nevertheless, if we can achieve strategic deterrence, we may be able to coordinate the army’s actions to make Song Ting’s defense collapse faster.
After Kong Zhende’s victory, he reorganized the army. On the afternoon of April 11, he led the main navy to Lin ‘an to prepare for a wave of strategic deterrence against the Southern Song Dynasty.
After the elimination of the state navy, the Suzhou-Ocean area of the army navy has been unblocked, and there is no need to worry about logistics problems.
First, Shuier captured Dinghai county by defeating the state navy, and they also added a wave of grain crops, which is the time to prepare for making great contributions again.
Kong Zhende led the navy to Lin ‘an through Suzhou Yangyi Road, which was also the process of the downfall of Song Jun navy and the news of Shuimendong constantly passing to Lin ‘an.
The two sides moved forward almost at the same time, and Kong Zhende never stopped delivering the news through the postal service.
Almost on the evening of April 12, the news that the state navy was wiped out and the navy won a great victory was rushed to Lin’ an.
On the morning of April 13th, Kong Zhende, the main force of the navy, also arrived in Hangzhou Bay area. Song Tingzheng was found preparing a warship team, which seemed to be intended to expand the navy’s strength.
Of course, it’s not much to say that Kong Zhende ordered the navy to flock to the long-range short-range attack. It took one afternoon and one at noon. The navy was destroyed. There are about 200 warships that have not yet completed the new navy.
The road to Lin ‘an suddenly became clear, and Kong Zhende was willing to lead the navy soldiers to land in Lin ‘an to attack the imperial capital of the Southern Song Dynasty.
However, this choice is not very realistic for Kong Zhende, because according to intelligence, there are almost 100,000 imperial guards in Lin ‘an Sanyan. He has thousands of sailors. If he is a cavalry, he still dares to take a chance, but sailors … Forget it.
Nevertheless, he is not going to sit here and wait for the army to arrive, and he decides to do something as much as he can.
For example, by blocking the Hangzhou Bay and capturing the merchant fleet, the commerce in the Southern Song Dynasty was attacked, and the trade in the Southern Song Dynasty was blocked, thus hitting the Southern Song Dynasty economy.
And Hangzhou Bay North Jiaxing House is an important salt-producing area in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Sailors can’t compete with Lin ‘an’s 103,000 imperial troops, but attacking a Jiaxing prefecture to destroy the salt-producing areas in the Southern Song Dynasty and destroy the official salt system can also win a favorable position for the country to sell private salt in the Southern Song Dynasty.
When he was stationed in Haizhou, Kong Zhende also heard that the Southern Song Dynasty restricted the import of state-owned private salt by cracking down on Chuzhou private salt dealers, which affected the large fiscal revenue. He was very dissatisfied with this and decided to take this opportunity to severely clean up the Southern Song Dynasty.
Kong Zhende first sent ships from the water to block the way for seagoing ships to reach Lin ‘an from Suzhou Ocean, and then sent ships to search for and capture the merchant fleet of the Southern Song Dynasty in the whole Suzhou Ocean area.
Seeing the merchant fleet without saying anything, they rushed to arrest the captors, and the Ministry of Commerce turned it into a battle to deter the trade routes in the Southern Song Dynasty.
In addition, people were sent to land in several large salt fields in the coastal areas of Jiaxing, and the salt workers were destroyed and destroyed. This destruction of the official salt system in the Southern Song Dynasty made it face the dilemma of lack of official salt
Even if you can’t directly attack Lin’ an, you must make it difficult for Song people to endure the law!
Chapter 699 This emperor is left to you to do from now on!
Su Yonglin once taught officers that fighting is not only combat effectiveness, but also logistical ability and economic strength.
If you can destroy your opponent’s economic ability through war, you can bring your opponent a far-reaching blow besides military strikes, making it difficult for them to restore their economy after the war.
If the economy cannot recover its military strength, it will be difficult to recover, and then the country will be weak.
Kong Zhende knew that he could not directly threaten Lin ‘an militarily, so he left a deeper impression on Zhao Guanjia in Lin ‘an through his way … so it should be possible.
The military action really dealt a heavy blow to the sea trade and the official salt system in Suzhou Ocean area.
In terms of sea trade, although the merchant ships in the Southern Song Dynasty were all armed, some merchant ships were also protected by armed warships, and some robbed pirates while doing business, but these merchant ships were also in the nest.
I really want to meet a large-scale professional army. These ships and more than a dozen ships form a commercial fleet, which can be said to have no strength to fight back.
The naval division is not soft on them, and directly rushes to surround them, either surrendering or jumping for help to take compulsory action to turn these merchant departments into their own advantages.
Don’t say that’s a real trick.
A large number of merchant ships arriving in Lin ‘an from Fuzhou didn’t know about the war between the two sides at that time, and plunged into Suzhou Ocean, thus becoming a military advantage.
Silk, cloth, porcelain, grain, livestock, fish, fruits, spices, etc. The army of important merchants and precious materials seized ship after ship.
It’s not hard for the army. They can hand over the boat and the businessman and go.
It happened that the army didn’t have so much food to support. They wanted boats and supplies, so they threw them to the south shore together, and then they swaggered away with the boat, leaving these maritime businessmen and their team crying.
Without business, there is only one life left. How can this country be so damaged?
Captured these wars, the army is also unambiguous, and immediately sent a boat to transport in the direction of Haizhou in the north, which is a bite to eat and just waiting to be slowly digested.
In the official saltworks, the action is more simple and rude.
Army soldiers directly destroyed the saltworks, and then killed the official department in the saltworks. The technical master Yan Ding and his family took the salt-making equipment with him, and they took it with them, and destroyed it if they could.
In a few days, many famous salt fields, such as Pudong Salt Field, Yuanbu Salt Field, Qingcun Salt Field and Sand Salt Field, were all destroyed by the army and directly lost their salt production capacity.
These salt fields are directly responsible for the prosperous and rich areas such as the coastal areas of the south of the Yangtze River and Lin’ an area. Once the official salt is destroyed, it will seriously affect the official salt income of the Southern Song Dynasty government.
This is really a terrible thing for the Southern Song Dynasty government, and a large part of their fiscal revenue is salt revenue.
It really doesn’t have much influence on him
Without official salt, there is still private salt to choose from, which is worse than expensive to death. On the contrary, official salt and private salt are cheaper and of good quality. The official salt system is really destroyed, and civilians and private salt dealers don’t know how happy it is
The time when the navy was reckless in carrying out sabotage was also the time when Lin’ an City was violently shaken.
When the news that the state navy army was wiped out arrived in Lin ‘an, Wang Lun was still Li Bao’s words were not respectful, and he felt very angry with the faint threat of asking for help.
He thinks that he pulled out Li Bao, and he also escorted Li Bao’s operation. What can he give to Li Bao to rectify the state navy in a short time and make the state navy have combat effectiveness?
Li Bao, who said that he should take the initiative to be a lackey, should have at least respect for him.
But he didn’t see the slightest respect from Li Bao’s action.
Doesn’t he want to give reinforcements?
Isn’t he eager to win?
Isn’t this an effort to coordinate?
It is also necessary for the imperial court to hastily expand the navy division, and once money is involved, there are always several opposition voices against him. He has spent a lot of energy fighting against those officials who have failed to succeed.
You’re in trouble with Li Bao, and there’s no problem with Wang Lun?
What danger is Lin ‘an?
It’ s simply ignorant!
Wang Lun was very angry and wrote a letter reprimanding Li Bao for thinking about his brave words before the war and saying that he would take the initiative to attack? I can’t even defend now. Do you have enough ability for me to trust?
You disappoint me so much!
As soon as Wang Lun finished writing the letter, the news of the annihilation of the state navy arrived in Lin’ an City. Of course, the head of Wang Lun’s Privy Council was the first to know.
Then he froze and turned pale, and his brain was white.
That moment two words hit my heart.
be over; be doomed
What kind of disappointment are you talking about at this time?
