The city of Jelan Cha is built on an island, so how to transport heavy artillery is a difficult problem. What's more, there are heavy artillery on the city of Jelan Cha, which is what people often call fortress cannons. They won't let people easily land on the island.

Moreover, the captain and fortress cannons do not have an advantage over bombing. First of all, the fortress cannons are placed on the turret, which is very stable and easier to aim. However, warships are affected by wind and waves at sea, and their accuracy is not as accurate as the artillery of the turret.

Secondly, warships cannot defeat the fortress guns. The fortress guns have a large caliber, and once the warship is hit, the losses will be very large! So Liu Pei can only find another way.

However, when Liu Pei was watching the map just now, he had a preliminary idea. Liu Pei's plan first of all, thanks to the Dutch for his arrogant arrogance! They believed that their strength at sea was invincible, so when building castles on the island, they did not build walls to surround the island. There were even no walls outside the castle. This provided great convenience for attacking Liu Pei to land on the island and attack.

Moreover, when the Netherlands built the city of Relanzha, they were built into two directions, east and west. The main castle was built on the east side against the mountains. A large number of warehouses, barracks and other ordinary buildings were built along the western coast. This provided convenience to Liu Pei.

Liu Pei’s plan was to use this building complex. Because of the obstruction of buildings, the cannons on the castle had dead corners. He could only attack ships far away from the sea in the western part of the island. However, the ships nearby could not be hit by buildings.

So Liu Pei decided to make a breakthrough here. He was going to use the fleet to feint attack to attract firepower on the castle. Then he used another fleet to defeat the fort on the west side of the island, and let the Marines land on a small boat in the west and seize that group of buildings. Then, relying on these buildings, he arranged artillery to bombard the main castle of the city of Jelanzha. This is the only way!

After Liu Pei made the main plan, he threw it to the staff, asking them to improve the entire plan. The staff members lived up to expectations and came up with detailed combat plans in a very short time. Now the entire team is taking action according to the plan. The war is about to break out.

At noon the next day, the second fleet sent 1,000 army soldiers and four heavy artillery pieces to Liu Pei. Now Liu Pei is in his hand

All eight heavy artillery have been assembled in southern Taiwan. The combat time is scheduled to officially begin tomorrow morning.

The next morning, the soldiers gathered to wait for orders after a full meal. The fleet had already taken action first. In the previous few days, the fleet never gave up harassing the island. The warships took turns firing artillery at the castle to harass the opponent.

The castle has become accustomed to this kind of harassment. Now, unless the other party's ship is too close, they will not even fire the cannons. This has also caused the captains to become more and more bold and often go in and shoot.

But this morning was different. The captains took turns to harass. They either used a single ship, or a combination of two or three ships to siege the main castle from all directions. But the castle was too strong! The shells fired by the fleet were basically meaningless except for minor damage.

The people in the castle also discovered the difference today. The troops in the castle had long been mobilized and stood firm in various posts. All male civilians were also armed and used as regular soldiers.

In this era, people who dared to go out to sea were brave or had no way to survive, so everyone could be counted as a skilled militia. In this way, the castle was pieced together with more than a thousand men. In their opinion, it was enough for these people to defend the castle.

After they discovered that the situation was different today, they quickly mobilized everyone to fill the turret. They felt that today might be the day when the Red Eye Dragon King was preparing to attack the city. They felt that they must give the arrogant pirate king a little color. So they mobilized everyone to rush to the cannon position, set up artillery and bombarded the ships near the castle.

After the battle began, more and more ships joined the artillery counterattack. However, the captain was very smart. Once he found that his ship was locked and attacked by the turret for a long time, he immediately withdrew from the battle group and asked the turret to re-target to attack other ships.

Judging from the accuracy of the artillery at that time, this tactic undoubtedly greatly increased the difficulty of the castle artillery hitting! It was even more difficult to hit the enemy ships! But even so, some ships would still be injured by the artillery. But at the same time, the dense artillery of the ships also caused certain losses to the Netherlands.

Overall, castles dominate.

Just as the castle and warships were bombing, the fleet parked in the western part of the island used their bodies as cover and put down a large number of small boats. The Marines would land in the western part of the island. But the Dutch people were not stupid. They knew that the west side was definitely the direction of the enemy's focus on attack! Although fortress cannons could not be arranged there, they still built four turrets to defend against enemies approaching from the island's muslin.

When the boat got off the water, it was loading soldiers, a team of warships rushed towards the west side of the island! They wanted to destroy the four turrets as much as possible before the boat was ready.

The Netherlands on the fort had long noticed that the fleet that was parked not far away seemed strange. But the fleet that was inserted from the other side attracted their attention because they posed a substantial threat to the fort.

Sure enough, as soon as the fleet said that the turret was included within the range, the naval guns on the ship were fired first! The eight ships did not form a unified battle line, but opened a relatively large distance. The purpose of this was to prevent the turret from obtaining unified artillery data.

The fleet slid not far from the shore of the island and bombarded the turrets at one time. I saw dense shells passing through the air and hitting the turrets like raindrops! The turrets were not to be outdone and were also desperately organizing the counterattack! With the feinted fleet, the sound of cannons at sea rumbled and smoke filled the guns! It indicates the complete development of a war!

Before the war began, Liu Pei taught the captains the way to gather fire and shoot. That is to say, the fleet concentrated on attacking a turret with two or three ships in a group! This can greatly increase the density and hit number of artillery shells.

This method really works! Although the caliber of the ship is not as large as that of the cannons on the turret, the number is far greater than that of him. For a moment, the hot iron ball hit the turret like raindrops, as if a terrible hail was pouring!
