Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After taking the North Korean officers and soldiers into custody and counting the losses, Wang Rulong took a small boat to Jin Ke's boat.

    Jin Ke was waiting for Wang Rulong on the deck. He was wearing the same blue-black shorts with a gold star embroidered on his left chest.

    According to the "Security Personnel Rank Regulations" promulgated by Jiangnan Security Group, the titles of the group's security personnel are divided into two types: "Command Rank" and "Police Rank".

    The ranks of police officers are divided into eleven levels, including constable, sergeant, and sergeant, and are awarded to grassroots security guards.  Command titles are also divided into eleven levels, including police supervisor, police inspector, and superintendent, and are awarded to command and management personnel.  Police officers must obey the orders of the commander in charge and salute the commander proactively.  Among police officers and commanders, the one with the highest rank is the superior, and subordinates must take the initiative to salute their superiors.

    A gold star represents the rank of junior police superintendent.  It is also the current highest title of Jiangnan Security Group.

    Wang Rulong is one level lower than Jin Ke, and the three silver stars on his chest represent the rank of senior police inspector.  The three iron stars of Helge represent the rank of senior superintendent.

    Wang Rulong raised his heels together, beat his chest with his right hand, and saluted Jin Ke.

    After Jin Ke returned the gift, he saw that Wang Rulong looked unhappy and asked, "What? Is the loss huge?"

    "Eight brothers were killed and twenty-six were injured." Wang Rulong looked sad, as if he had suffered a defeat.

    Although this number is negligible in any army.  But for Wang Rulong, it was a rare heavy casualty in his military career.

    After all, they are excellent generals trained by Qi Jiguang, who pursues zero casualties!

    Sure enough, Jin Ke also sighed solemnly and said: "The casualties are actually so heavy"

    "The main reason was that when the Japanese pirates came close, they threw torches and oil cans on our boat. The team members were afraid that the boat would be set on fire, so they all rushed to put out the fire. As a result, even the French aircraft on the boat stopped. Without fire suppression, the Japanese pirates' muskets, bows and arrows  It caused a lot of casualties.¡±

    Wang Rulong sighed and said: "Then another iron cannon exploded, killing one gunner on the spot and injuring three others. Others were hit in the feet by cannonballs, fell into the water and drowned"

    "Alas, the responsibility this time lies with us." Jin Ke said, blaming himself and touching his forehead: "Although we say that starting from the third sea transport, the possibility of encountering the enemy will become more and more likely, but in fact  I'm still numb."

    "Yes, I always thought that with such a huge fleet like ours, no one would dare to covet it." Wang Rulong nodded in approval: "So we still focus on training new recruits, and there is a big problem with the personnel arrangement."

    After a pause, he said with some frustration: "Moreover, the full power of the artillery was not used, allowing the red-haired ghost to compete."

    Wang Rulong was referring to the Futian Bay naval battle four years ago. At that time, in order to retaliate against the Hirado clan for expelling the Jesuits, the Portuguese sent two armed merchant ships from their base in Malacca to Japan for a punitive crusade.  One of them is a large carrack with an old shape, and the other is a small caravel with a novel shape.

    As for the Hirado Domain, the then governor of the clan, Matsuura Takanobu, was young, powerful, confident and steady.  When he learned that the Portuguese were coming to attack, he first contacted the Sakai merchants in the Seto Inland Sea, and received reinforcements composed of ten Chinese-style galleons on the condition of sharing the spoils equally.

    He himself also mobilized within the territory and assembled a fleet of more than 700 Japanese pirates and 60 warships.  After the two fleets merged, they attacked the Portuguese with only two warships.

    However, such a huge disparity in numbers resulted in a fragile defeat.  After a fierce battle, the Japanese only killed eight Portuguese sailors in total, but they themselves lost 70 lives and injured more than 200 people. In the end, they had to flee

    ??~~

    The opponents in both wars were the Hirado clan, and the number of enemies was similar. It was just right to compare the strength of the Coast Guard and the Portuguese armed merchant ships vertically.

    In Wang Rulong¡¯s view, although both sides lost eight people in battle, the Portuguese only had two warships, and their number was ten times that of the other side, so there was no doubt that they were still far behind the other side.  This made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

    "Yes, we do still have many problems. We are still far behind the Folanji people in naval battles. We need to summarize and improve." After Jin Ke finished speaking, he smiled and said: "But we can't be too harsh on the people below.  It¡¯s harsh, after all, this is a great victory in which a thousand enemies were wiped out and 600 people were captured, so it¡¯s not easy for so many novices who have never been on the battlefield.¡±

    "I know, rewards should be rewarded, and punishments should be scolded. The rewards and punishments are clear." Wang Rulong's expression softened slightly.

    "Have all the wounded been treated?" Jin Ke asked again with concern.

    "Thanks to Jiangnan Hospital for the doctors and nurses trained by our security team, the injured brother was treated immediately." Wang Rulong said with emotion on his face??people.  "

    "What is he going to do?" Wang Rulong was stunned.

    "You captured him and humiliated him. He wants to commit suicide by caesarean section to preserve the reputation of the Matsuura family!" Inukai explained, and finally added: "It is a great honor to be the intermediary of the lord!"

    "Don't do this." Wang Rulong rolled his eyes and spat again: "If you are really so strong, you should have a caesarean section as soon as you lose the battle. You are already here, why are you acting with me?!"

    "Seppuku can only be carried out in a clean room, wearing the most solemn clothes, and writing a 'death sentence' poem to the accompaniment of shamisen." Inukai said sternly: "This is the supreme honor of a samurai.  How can it be done in a hurry on a dirty battlefield?¡±

    "Fuck" Not only Wang Rulong, but also Jin Ke couldn't help but curse.  How perverted is this?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
