On the wall of the war room of the Qing'ao Bay Base Headquarters, there is a huge map of the entire Fujian and Guangdong sea area.
The indoor conference table has also been replaced by a huge sand table. The sand table is made of different colors of gypsum, which perfectly restores the coastal conditions of Guangdong's coast, the location of islands and reefs, the depth of water levels and other geographical factors in proportion, and marks all the coastal areas in the area. Navigational elements such as cities and possible supply points.
This is the basic skill of combat staff. They are combining the latest intelligence to deploy the forces of both sides and use large and small models to reflect them on the sand table.
Zhao Hao stood at the top with his arms folded. On the left and right stood Chen Huaixiu and Jin Ke, as well as generals such as Wang Rulong, Ma Yinglong, and Macaron, as well as Zheng Hao, who commanded the Ryukyu Navy. The woman standing opposite Zheng Hao, wearing a well-tailored black police robe and a leather belt with a brass buckle around her waist, was Lin Feng.
I saw that she neither wore a scarf or a hat on her head like men, nor did she pull her hair into a beautiful heart bun like the women of the Ming Dynasty. Instead, she let her long hair fall down like a waterfall and was only pulled up behind her back. The bright red bow is refreshing.
Zheng Zeng could recognize that it was similar to the hairstyle of Ryukyu Shinto girls, but without the big bow. He said in his heart that he had no idea where this woman was from and why she was dressed like this.
The reason is simple, Mr. Zhao likes it. Since she came in, Zhao Hao had looked at her several times, which made Chen Huaixiu secretly depressed. The big pig's hooves just like freshness.
"Ahem." At this time, Mr. Zhao moved his gaze from Lin Feng's face to the crowd and said, "Everyone, the chief of staff has just completed the military intelligence report. Now the chief of staff will assign combat tasks."
"Yes." Wang Rulong responded in a deep voice, picked up the long wooden stick next to the sand table, and said loudly to everyone: "You don't have to be frightened by the huge number of enemies. The only real threat they have is the Portuguese's thirty-odd spears." boats, at best plus the thirty boats of the Wuyang Trading House. The rest are just some troops who practice Taipingquan and beat drums. So we seem to be at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, but the truly effective elite troops are at least better than those of the opponent. Twice as much. As long as we use our troops carefully and avoid premature loss of our main force, the advantage lies with us!"

Almost at the same time, on board the Duke of Goa. Commander Domingo is also holding a combat meeting.
In addition to the Portuguese officers and Lin Hongzhong's group, the participants were also selected captains who would lead the huge pirate fleet, including Lin Daoqian.
Lin Daoqian was surprised at first, thinking it was a scam, but he saw many familiar faces, all of whom were famous sea masters on the Fujian and Guangdong seas. He even spotted Zeng Yiben standing in the corner. I understand what the Portuguese are thinking. There are so many sea masters mixed with dragons and snakes that it is impossible to review them. It is better to hold a meeting with them all and let them supervise each other.
In this era of extremely inconvenient maritime communications, it is not easy for pirate warships that are seriously lacking in training to advance and retreat together. If they engage in strategic deception, they can only involve their own people.
Therefore, the Folangji people can only use simple arrangements as a whole, and only make some small moves in key places. The former is not afraid of leaks, but the latter will not say it at all on such occasions.
"Everyone, according to reliable information, the Jiangnan Fleet has only more than 10,000 people and more than 100 ships. The advantage is obviously on our side!" Lin Hongzhong acted as the translator for Domingo:
"We must give full play to our numerical advantage and everyone's mobility advantage, and take turns to harass Qing'ao Bay non-stop, making their fleet exhausted. The main fleets of Folangji and Wuyangtong Commercial House will be hidden in the most advantageous position. Position, once the opponent reveals a flaw, attack immediately and engage in a decisive battle with the main force of the Jiangnan Fleet!"
Domingo pointed to the Portuguese naval map on the wall and said blah blah blah.
Lin Hongzhong translated: "Of course, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, the reality is virtual and the real, and the troops are unpredictable. So if the time is right, we can also change the feint attack to the main attack - land from a favorable position and occupy Qing'ao Bay with superior forces. Jiangnan Fleet Once we lose this advanced base that we have worked so hard for, we will have no choice but to retreat!"
"Damn, the enemy is still in shape" The sea master below muttered in a low voice: "Stop scratching the faces of the red-haired ghosts, they know nothing about the art of war."
Lin Hongzhong frowned and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, we may not deal with each other in the past, and we may even have wars. But since we have come together because of the common enemy, we must unite sincerely and deal with the outside world as one, otherwise there will be no tomorrow in the Southeast. We have a place to stand!"
Only then did all the sea masters calm down.
Domingo then continued: "In short, annihilate the main force of the Jiangnan Fleet or capture Qing'ao Bay, if these two goals are achieved, victory will belong to us"

Qing'ao Bay, war room.
 In order not to injure her eldest brother, her fleet was uniformly replaced by the sun and moon flag of the Jiangnan Group and did not fly her fire phoenix flag.
At dusk, all the ships left and Qing'ao Bay became empty.
Zhao Hao and Jin Ke stood on the quiet pier. Looking at the blood-red sea surface under the setting sun, Mr. Zhao murmured: "After tonight, the bleeding will begin"
"Yes." Jin Ke nodded and said solemnly: "This battle will definitely be crueler than before."
As he said that, he looked back at the still bustling base - in addition to the 10,000 civilians, there were also Macron's two security teams and the Second Marine Battalion staying at the base.
It is not difficult to judge that in the next few days, this place will also be dyed red with blood
ps. It¡¯s definitely not too early to write another update. Alas, it¡¯s a vicious cycle It should be much better after this battle is over. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
