In this era, there are actually very few professional navies like those of later generations. The so-called navy and navy are mostly amphibious forces. It's not that they can do amphibious operations, but because they are mostly armies on boats.
Within the Navy, there are actually two types of arms. One is the soldiers on the ship, most of whom are selected athletes who are good at water-based combat. They can fight on both land and water, and are mainly responsible for joint battles. The other type is sailors. These people are serious water personnel and are responsible for driving the ship.
Of course there are some complications, but in fact it also shows that the navy is an affiliated force of the Lu family. It plays a role at a certain time, and when it is used up, it continues to serve as the army. Only a slightly powerful force can raise a group of sailors.
The navy of Sui Dynasty was basically composed of this, and some sailors were even recruited temporarily.
After Huang Mingyuan took over the navy, he basically did not use the soldiers for other purposes and strictly trained them. However, this group of people had not really seen a sea battle, nor had they developed a naval mindset. Compared with the real navy, they were still far behind.
The two countries of Baekje and Wa are very special. Because of their winding coastlines, their navies are very powerful. Baekje has a professional navy, and Japan is even more amazing because there are so many sailors that even the soldiers are sailors.
The soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty have a psychological advantage over small countries such as Baekje and Silla. Sometimes this advantage even develops into pride and arrogance. However, they just learned that the navy stationed in Zhanchan was almost completely wiped out, and no one looked down on the Baekje people anymore.
During the long journey, Huang Mingjun was not idle. Instead, he gathered all the generals in the army, especially the generals of the Liaodong Navy, to explain to them the naval battle strategy.
Huang Mingjun and others have been fighting in the East China Sea and South China Sea for many years and have rich experience, which is far beyond the comparison of generals such as Zhang Changxun and Xu Zhe who became monks halfway.
Huang Mingyuan talked from ocean currents to sea lanes, from "T-shaped cross-head" to broadside attacks Everyone's eyes were opened and their knowledge was greatly expanded, and they finally understood that the navy in the inland river can really only be regarded as a small force. Just kidding.
The Sui Navy set out from Donglai Port and headed east, approaching the mouth of the Xishui River.
The Baekje army has been stationed here since it occupied Chanchan Port. Because of the fall of the Xishui River mouth, the Sui army was unable to send troops or material resources to North Korea. If it were done by land, the consumption would be much greater.
In fact, after Guoxin occupied Changan Port, he led his troops upstream and prepared to attack Korea City.
It¡¯s just that the Sui army blocked the river with iron locks and deployed many fire ships to block it. The Baekje people attempted a forceful attack but failed. Instead, they lost several large ships, so Guoxin gave up.
After the navy enters the inland river, its advantage will be greatly reduced. Especially when facing the Sui army, which was good at fighting river water battles.
Seeing that the navy could not break the city, Guoxin was mainly trapped.
In order to completely trap the Sui army, the Baekje Navy even went north to the mouth of the Yalu River and the Xishui River in an attempt to fight the Sui Navy and completely control the sea power. It's just that the Sui navy avoided the battle, and on the road, they couldn't take advantage, so the Baekje talents failed.
However, this situation changed after the Battle of Silver Spring.
After Huang Mingli killed Qiwei in Silver Spring Valley, Baekje was in an uproar. Qiwei was a famous general and powerful minister in Baekje, and his influence was very important.
More than ten years ago, there was civil strife in Baekje. In just two years, three great kings, King Weideok, King Hye, and King Hobo, were lost in succession. The country was in turmoil, its power declined, and noble disputes continued. The Goguryeo and Silla people also took advantage of the situation and moved in. A large area of ??land south of the Han River fell into the hands of the Silla people, and their influence on the Japanese political situation was also much less than before.
At this time, Qiwei led his army to resist the Silla people, and successively attacked the Silla people in Niangji Valley (in today's Cheongju City, South Korea), Sansan Mountain and other places. He also captured and killed the famous Silla general Yi Fan Sizhen and recovered the fallen land.
After that, Qiwei overcame all opinions and supported the branch royal family Fuyu Zhang as the king, stabilizing the internal situation of Baekje.
A few years later, Qiwei united with the Goguryeo people and defeated the Silla people many times, reversing the situation of passive defense since the Holy King of Baekje.
It can be said that Qiwei¡¯s status in Baekje is like Huang Mingyuan¡¯s status in Sui Dynasty. His death severely damaged the morale of the Baekje people.
There was panic all over Baekje, and they were no longer as excited as before with Lien Zhan Lianjie.
At this time, some people thought of the original defeat of Sa Shui. The Goguryeo people also promised to hand over Weili City to them, so they participated in the war with the Sui army. In the end, they suffered heavy losses but gained nothing.
Many people have the intention of retreating.
There were many people in the Baekje court who persuaded Fuyu Zhang to withdraw from the war and negotiate peace with the Sui Dynasty. At this point in the peace talks, Baekje finally had the upper hand and could withdraw from the war with dignity. When the main force of the Sui army arrived, once defeated, the country would be in danger of subjugation.
 "The Great Sui Dynasty has never recovered from Yan Hui's defeat of Sa Shui. This alliance with Silla is just a matter of profit and neglect of justice, and it wants the land rather than life."
Fuyu Zhang was also a little afraid. The strength of the Sui army was written with those 100,000 corpses and engraved on the bones of the Baekje people. It cannot be offset by a few small victories.
But at this time, Fuyu Zhang did not dare to retreat.
If you retreat now, you will fall out with the Silla people. If you offend the Sui people and fall out with the Silla people, how will you face the Sui army? Although they had a feud with Silla, at this time, they had to stay close to each other to keep each other warm.
Fu Yuzhang had no choice but to order the troops under Songyue City to step up the attack on the city. He also ordered the navy to block the mouth of the Xishui River. Sui army reinforcements could not be allowed to support Chosun City from the sea.
"You know you can't do something but you have to do it. It has to be said that it's hard to die in this battle."
At this time, Guoxin, who was occupying Changang, did not dare to attack the mouths of Yalushui and Sashui rivers respectively after the defeat of Qiwei. He is bold, but not crazy. He knew very well that what they destroyed was only a small naval force of the Sui Army, and the main force of the Sui Army's navy did not appear. Besides, the Sui army is far from being underestimated. Isn't Qiwei just capsized in the gutter?
Guoxin stationed troops in Changgang and sent letters to Baekje every day, requesting a retreat. In Guoxin's view, stationing troops at the mouth of the Zhushui River cut off the maritime support of Chosun City, but he was unable to attack Chosun City, so it was of little significance.
But Guoxin did not wait for the order to retreat, but waited for the arrival of the Sui army.
Huang Mingjun directed the main force of the Navy all the way east to the sea outside the mouth of the Xishui River. He did not rush to attack the enemy, but only ordered the attack after the scout ship reported that the main force of Baekje was still there.
In this battle, Huang Mingjun aims to completely annihilate the Baekje people.
The mouth of the Xushui River is in the shape of an inverted trumpet, and Zhanchan Harbor is on the north bank of the river mouth.
The Liaodong Navy was not good at large-scale naval battles, so Huang Mingjun used his Hu Douzhou Navy as the main force to charge directly to Chan Harbor from the west. He also ordered Zhang Changxun, Xu Zhe, and Wenren Sui'an to lead the three divisions. Approach the port from the north, south and southwest in order to completely annihilate the enemy forces.
Zhang Changxun and Xu Zhe had no objection to this. They followed Huang Mingjun this time, mainly to learn and observe. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
