Chapter 1669 War Game Deduction

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The deduced chess pieces represent each basic unit participating in the battle, and each chess piece has a corresponding combat effectiveness description.

    Since it is a naval battle, of course the unit is ship.  Therefore, the staff made the flags into ship shapes and distinguished ship types by size.

    ?The black chess pieces represent the Spanish Expeditionary Fleet, with a total of 139 pieces.

    According to intelligence, there are 18 warships of more than 1,000 tons in the Spanish fleet, 32 warships of 800 tons, 70 ships of 600 tons, and the remaining 19 are Spanish clippers of less than 200 tons.

    This time the Spanish focused on strengthening their firepower. There are about 40 1,000-ton warships, about 30 cannons on 800-ton warships, about 20 cannons on 600-ton warships, and about 10 cannons on ships below 200 tons, for a total of about 3,270 cannons.  .

    The firepower is greatly enhanced, reducing their disadvantage during shelling.  At the same time, in addition to 7,000 crew members, the 139 warships also carried 25,000 Spanish soldiers, still maintaining a strong combat effectiveness.

    The red flag represents the Coast Guard Joint Fleet¡ª¡ª

    ? Among them, the Coast Guard Strategic Fleet has 8 battleships, 12 cruisers, 10 destroyers, and 12 frigates.

    The Luzon combat readiness fleet has 4 battleships, 8 cruisers, 10 destroyers, and 12 frigates.

    The main fleet of the Taiwan Garrison Area consists of 2 cruisers, 8 destroyers, and 16 frigates.

    The main fleet of the Tamna Garrison Area consists of 2 cruisers, 8 destroyers, and 16 frigates.

    The combined fleet composed of these four fleets has 12 battleships, 24 cruisers, 36 destroyers, 56 frigates, a total of 128 battleships, and 23,600 soldiers participating in the battle.  In terms of strength, it is smaller than the enemy's army.

    But we have more guns.  The battleship has 74 guns, the cruiser has 60 guns, the destroyer has 24 guns, and the frigate has 16 guns. Therefore, our fleet has a total of 4,600 guns, which is far more than the Spanish in terms of quantity and quality.

    Therefore, the referee team presets that our ship's long-range firepower will have a 30% bonus.  However, the combat effectiveness of Spanish warships in boarding battles was given a 50% bonus.

    This caused dissatisfaction among many people, who felt that our long-range firepower was underestimated and Spain's close combat capabilities were overestimated.  Moreover, we are waiting for work, and there should be a damage bonus in close combat. However, based on the principle of being lenient to the enemy, we finally conducted the deduction according to this setting.

    ??~~

    In the next five days, strategic fleet commander Wang Rulong; Luzon combat readiness fleet commander Lin Feng; Taiwan garrison area main fleet commander Xin Fei; Tamna garrison area main fleet commander Heerdi; and strategic fleet deputy commander Xiang Xue  Hai conducted war games with Jin Ke and Ma Yinglong, who played the Spanish fleet commanders respectively.

    All generals know very well that the tactics of the winner in this war game are likely to be used in the decisive battle with the Spanish.  And the winner is likely to become the de facto commander of the combined fleet.

    Because Wang Rulong has been lingering on the sickbed since the second year of Wanli. In addition, he is getting older, and his physical strength and energy are not as good as before.  The prince will probably let him serve as the nominal fleet commander, but will not allow him to fight on the front line.

    Although these guys usually talk about superiority and inferiority, they all have wild hearts. Seeing that Lao Wang is about to retire, who wouldn't want to take his place?

    So everyone tried their best and worked with their staff to come up with a satisfactory battle plan, and then took it to the war chess room to deduce it, hoping to have the last laugh.

    After the round of deductions and another day of deliberation, Jinke announced the scores of the five people on the sixth day.

    The tallest among them is Wang Rulong, followed by Lin Feng, then Xiang Xuehai, Haerdi and Xin Fei

    "After calculation by the referee team, Wang Rulong's plan has annihilated 60% of the enemy in five out of ten deductions, 70% of the enemy in two, 50% in two, and 80% in one. The comprehensive battle loss ratio, the final score  85 points.¡±

    "Lin Feng's plan includes five annihilations of 20% of the enemy, four annihilations of 90%, and one annihilation of 100%. The comprehensive battle loss ratio gives a final score of 80 points."

    The ratings of the other three are about the same, all around 70 points, with a high probability of annihilating the enemy by 40 to 50%.

    Naturally, the three of them are somewhat dissatisfied, especially Lin Feng¡¯s record. The weighted average is lower than them. Why should he score higher than them?

    Is it just because of her

    But when they entered the stage of public comment on tactics, they probably understood the reasons.

    The tactics formulated by Wang Rulong and Lin Feng are very similar.  They all broke the rules and boldly penetrated and defeated the enemy before pursuing them.

    The coast guard fleet was trained by Portugal. Since its establishment, it has strictly required the fleet to maintain a single column and shoot at enemy ships during battle.  Until the enemy troops are eliminated or retreat, the supreme commander can decide whether to abandon the formation and launch a pursuit.

    Xiang Xue"Yes, the Spaniards think so too." Lin Feng said lightly: "But if we can get over, we can catch them off guard."

    "The question is how can we get by?" Xiang Xuehai pouted.

    "Just remove the reef." Lin Feng said in a calm tone: "I took the engineers from Luzon Port to survey it in a small boat. The water depth in the entire strait is fine, except for the blockage of less than two kilometers.  They said it shouldn¡¯t be difficult to clear a channel.¡±

    "The referee team consulted the Luzon Port Authority and received this reply." Ma Yinglong added: "However, after calculating the data provided by Commander Lin, the referee team believed that the risk of failure is still very high, so the success rate was determined to be 50  %."

    "Humph!" Lin Feng looked unhappy, obviously thinking that the referee team's score was too low.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
