Chapter 1314 Unreliable Rice Bugs
The sudden change on the front line in Kenzhou caught Ye Darkfeng off guard. In desperation, he could only postpone the landing of the western front army from Nanting Port in Aizhou. The orders had already been gathered to Xuri, Feiyang and Shengfeng San on the west coast of Pennsylvania.
The Grand Army divided most of the supplies it carried with the army, especially the Huiling Pills, and handed them over to the Tigers and the Red Star Army. They also ordered the Tigers and the Red Star Army to stick to the two counties of Shipai and Yangze until the East China Sea transportation line was restored.
normal.
The replenished Tiger and Red Star legions finally recovered some of their vitality and began to send troops to launch active attacks on the enemies in front of them. However, Qiu Ping seemed to have been prepared for this and did not confront the enemy head-on. Instead, he used enemy advance.
The tactic of retreating while the enemy retreats and we advance, constantly dealt with Nanchen's army, consuming their limited supplies.
Ten days after the attack on Luping Island, Nanchen Kingdom's East China Sea Fleet, led by Cameron Heeley, finally arrived at Luping Island, three days later than expected. At this time, the Dongsheng Fleet had already attacked Luping Island.
Pingdao was looted and left calmly.
After re-landing on Luping Island, Cameron Heeley saw only a devastated area. The Dongsheng Fleet not only took away all the people and materials on the island, but also completely destroyed all the buildings on the island. Whether it was docks, warehouses,
The military camp and the naval headquarters built on the island were completely demolished. All useful things were transported away, leaving only a pile of ruins on the site.
According to the assessment of professionals, Luping Island has been completely destroyed. It will take at least two months to restore it to its role as a logistics base and provide normal supplies to the Nanchen Kingdom's army in the three southeastern states.
Facing the deserted Luping Island, Cameron Healey immediately set about restoring various functions of Luping Island after confirming its safety. The fleet will be divided into three parts. The first part will be left to recover and rebuild the dock.
The second part went to Huazhou to recruit migrant workers to serve on the island; the remaining third part took the fleet to the direction of Youguo to meet the supply fleet departing from Youguo.
On the other hand, after receiving the news, Mi Chong personally rushed to the seaside of Dongquezhou, the base of the Dongsheng Fleet, and the Lianyun Military Port to welcome the Dongsheng Fleet's triumphant return.
Seeing the groups of prisoners and the mountains of supplies, Mi Chong's face smiled as brightly as a flower. She never imagined that such an easy trip to Luping Island could bring back so much.
wealth and prisoners, including three large warships and a dozen small and medium-sized warships.
Looking at the dazzling array of supplies in front of her, Mi Chong waved her hand and said to Jing Yingxing, who came with her: "Except for the captured battleships, all other supplies and money will be collected in the warehouse of the Prefectural Mufu."
Before Jing Yingxing could answer, Yang Kuo jumped out and shouted: "Princess Lan, my subordinates are brave, I think there is something wrong with the way you handle the seized supplies. About 30% of the supplies are exclusively used by the navy.
You will put all the supplies into the State Mufu's warehouse so that no one else can use them. I think it would be more appropriate to leave this part of the supplies to the Dongsheng Fleet and let us handle it ourselves."
Jing Yingxing smiled and said: "Deputy Commander Yang, don't be anxious. You only saw that some of these supplies are special supplies for the navy, but you don't know that the warships built by our Jing family are slightly different from those of other countries in the elixir world."
, especially weapons and ammunition, which cannot be used directly by the Dongsheng Fleet. Vice Commander Yang can rest assured that these materials will all be handed over to the Dongsheng Fleet for use after our Jing family’s magic factory is transformed."
Yang Kuo raised his neck and said: "There are not only weapons and ammunition here, but also food, healing elixirs and other supplies, which are urgently needed by our navy."
Mi Chong said calmly: "Dongquezhou will allocate logistics supplies regularly and quantitatively according to the needs of the Dongsheng Fleet. Deputy Commander Yang can rest assured. This is not only the case in the battle of Luping Island, but also in all future battles of our Dongquezhou army.
All materials seized will be returned to the state pastoral office for unified distribution, and no one may make any arbitrary claims."
The duck in his mouth was about to fly away. Although Yang Kuo was a little reluctant to give up, the Queen (Mi Chong) had personally given the order, so he had no choice but to give up. Pointing to a group of prisoners in the square, he asked: "County
Your Highness, these are all captured by us, including battleship crews, crime prevention and control personnel, dock maintenance personnel, ship repair personnel, warehouse managers, and a large number of porters. Please tell me how to deal with these people."
Mi Chong thought for a while and said: "This is simple. The crew members on the battleship will be directly incorporated into the Dongsheng Fleet, and the rest of the personnel will be sent to the Jing family's magic factories. They are short of manpower."
When Mi Chong welcomed the triumphal return of the Dongsheng Fleet, Ye Xi also learned the news that the Dongsheng Fleet had voluntarily evacuated Luping Island. He could only smile bitterly and shake his head. This Mi Chong was really as unreliable as he expected.
