A few days later, Akhtar Port (later Akhtarsk-sur-Sea).

The Port of Akhtar is the only port of the Ottoman Empire in the Sea of ​​Azov (Yesque Port has been given to Truchen).

According to the Ottoman message transmission speed, the war that happened in Odessa at this time obviously did not enter here.

Only a few people knew that the incident of the Nogae tribe had happened. In their minds, it was just a struggle within the Nogae people themselves.

So Truchen's ship can still dock here openly.

Look, a fleet came over.

The fleet was still full of sails with Truchen and Ottoman double flags. Such a fleet was a rich man from the Port of Akhtar. As soon as a ship landed, the slaves on the dock rushed up.

However, this time, it was obvious that they were going to disappoint them. The Truchens rejected them on the grounds that the goods were extremely precious and prepared to transport them themselves.

A hundred strong men carried big bags and rushed to the castle.

When they arrived at the city gate, they put all the bags down. Their number was large, and they occupied the city gate at once!

At this time, one of the strong men shouted sternly: "The army of Truqin is about to capture this city, don't you surrender yet!"

Speaking of which, due to Truchen's "friendly" relationship with the Ottomans in recent years, the Ottomans of Akhtar, who were close to Cuban, gradually lost their vigilance and only set up ten soldiers at the gate of the city.

While drinking, the man took out a robe and took out a rotating pistol from it. He uncovered the bag. It turned out that there was another Truchen soldier inside!

The Ottomans were stunned. They knew the power of the Truchen soldiers. They surrendered after a little hesitation. They did not escape, did they blew the bronze trumpet to warn the city.

Two hundred Truchen soldiers occupied the city gate!

Not long after, a large number of Truchen soldiers came down from the ship. At this time, a striking person ran to the barracks in the city to inform the Ottoman officers. However, when the officer brought about a thousand people near the city gate, they happened to meet a team of Truchen soldiers who were the same number of Truchen soldiers rushed into the city!

As the only big port of the Ottomans in the Sea of ​​Azov, they naturally had warships on the dock, but they were surrounded by Truchen warships and could not move.

Not long after, after repeated weighing the trade-offs, the Ottoman officers and his soldiers in Akhtar abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

The same thing is still in the Kerch port, Kafa Port (Feodocia), Yalta port, Rossi port (Novorossisk), and the Truchen army only encountered a slight setback in Kafa Port, which has a certain number of Yanicheri, and the rest of them successfully won one by one.

At this point, the Ottomans lost all the ports and castles in the northern Black Sea and the Sea of ​​Azov!

At this time, if there is any tribe with good navigation experience in the Truchen Kingdom, it must have occupied the Dalkin people of Makhachkara, the capital of the Khanate of the former Khanate.

After the establishment of the Naval School in Truchen in Lagan Port, Qitad not only consciously allowed the Mongolians and Han children to study there, but naturally recruited many Tatarstans and Azerbaijanis who had already had sailing experience.

Deng Yi is one of them.

He was a descendant of the Dalkins who joined the Truchen Khanate very early. He followed his father to work on the Truchen state-owned merchant ship since he was ten years old. At the age of thirteen, he entered the school in Lagan City and then entered the naval school. He was only twenty-three years old this year.

But he is already one of the most famous graduates of the Naval School. Gitade gave him the name of Deng Yi because of his performance.

There is a saying now circulating in Truchen that anyone named by the king is basically either his adopted son or his confidant.

As the first Tatarstanist to be named by His Majesty, Deng Yi is naturally grateful.

He has a typical Caucasian appearance, fair, handsome, and well-proportioned figure. He won Akhtar as his credit. After taking this city, he has a new task.

Before, Sevastopol.

Qitad called him and Deng Quan to the front. At that time, he was sitting behind a large table, with a detailed map drawn by the Intelligence Agency based on the original Ottomans, and later after a long-term field survey, using a navigation clock and sextant to measure the latitude and longitude.

Deng Ce was also by his side at that time. Among the three of them, Deng Ce was the son of Qitade's uncle Bao Dunge, who was his cousin. Deng Quan was the son of Hamuyang, and they were all descendants of the Turkut nobles. Only Deng Yi was from Tatarstan.

Seeing that he could be on par with these two people and Qitade was not close to each other, Deng Yi strengthened his intention to be loyal to the Truqin Kingdom to the death.

What's more, as a family of sailors on the Caspian Sea, after obtaining the unheard navigation knowledge of the professors of the Lagan Naval School, his vision suddenly opened. Although his father had also traveled on the Mediterranean and heard how Europeans sailed, he was only heard of it.

It is rare to teach students of all races without reservation, even in Europe.

After arranging how to attack Akhtar and Odessa, Qitad first said to Deng Quan: "Seeing the Ottomans in the northern Black Sea and the ports and castles of the Sea of ​​Azov is just our insignificant first step. In fact, if our army defeats the Ottomans on land, we can get these places through negotiations."

"But when I think of our country's Azov Sea, the Black Sea Fleet has not had the opportunity to fight in practice since its establishment. After thinking about it, I decided to take down these places first"

"If the port of Odessa, Akhtar, Kafa and Rossi are successfully captured, if there is no further action, the Ottomans will definitely draw their navies located in the Black Sea, Marmara Sea and Aegean Sea to fight back"

"We obviously don't want them to do this. The sea is vast and no one knows when they will come, so we might as well take the initiative"

"So, your first goal is their Black Sea Fleet"

"In the central and southern Black Sea, the Ottomans all have military ports and fleets in Varna, Istanbul, and Batumi, Sinopin on the southern coast of the Black Sea. Deng Quan's targets are Varna and Istanbul, while Deng Yi's targets are Batumi, Sinopin and Trabzon"

....

Deng Yi is responsible for the clearing of the east coast of the Black Sea.

At this time, in addition to the Port of Rossi (Novorossisk), which is close to the Kuban area, Tuapse, Sochi and Sukhumi are all small ports, with limited Ottoman warships anchored and limited military power stationed. For these places, Qitad's goal is to "destroy all the ships berthed at its ports and trap them in the inland."

His meaning is very clear. At this time, the east coast of the Black Sea north of Georgia is steep and there is no land road between the ports, so it can only be transported by sea. Further to the depths of the inland, there is a more steep and tall Caucasus Mountain. Once people in the port lose their ships, they will have no escape.

Their mission is to destroy the other side's ports and ships, and it does not involve land combat. Therefore, each large ship above the main battleship can carry 500 tons of coal. Together with the three naval special cargo ships that are traveling, they can carry a total of 2,000 tons.

Nowadays, Truchen 1860 steam engine, whether it is five hundred horsepower or four hundred horsepower, if all steam power is used, it consumes about twenty tons of coal per day.

In other words, they can go out for one month without replenishing coal by just their own ship. If they are added to the cargo ship, they can sail for four months without replenishing coal.

Of course, considering the number of food, ammunition, and personnel, going out for two months is the smallest.

"Two months is also the maximum service life of the latest improved steam engine of Truchen 1860. If it is longer, it will require overhaul. In other words, you need to clean up the larger Ottoman ports along the Black Sea within two months"

This is the original words of Qitade.

However, for Deng Yi and others, since the westerly wind from the Atlantic Ocean prevails on the Black Sea, it is certain that it uses crosswinds to sail when heading south and only switches to steam power when fighting near enemy ports.

In this way, it will be at least one more month.

Three months to clean up the black sea!

If it was still the pure sail era, they wouldn't believe it if they were killed.

But now, no one of the nearly 1,500 people on a squadron don't believe it.

Of course, since they have strong steam power, their ability to sail is obviously not as good as that of European countries, or even the Ottoman Empire, but this is the result of Qitad's desire.

Since you have the advantage of habit in firepower and power, once you encounter difficulties, you will obviously not work hard on sails and cold weapons, and will only go to a higher level in technology, otherwise your life will be lost, so this prompts the Truqins to continue to climb on the technology tree.

If the sails are not used, the average speed of the fleet can reach about forty miles in the downstream and thirty miles in the reverse current. With the blessing of the crosswind, the speed of the ship can be increased to sixty miles!

One day and one night can exceed a thousand miles!

Starting from Rossi Port, heading south along the east coast, about a thousand miles to Batumi Port. In other words, it only takes two days for Deng Yi's fleet to reach the first serious target Batumi Port.

However, along the way, there are small ports like Tuapse, Sochi, and Suhumi that need to be cleaned up. In addition, the battles that may occur at any time, it would be nice to be able to arrive at Batumi Port within ten days.

The fleet quickly swept across the three small ports, and all the civilian ships anchored there were destroyed, whether they were warships or merchant ships, and then continued to go south and arrived at the west coast of Georgia four days later.

At this time, due to the revolt of the Georgians and the decline of the Ottomans, they only own two ports in West Georgia, Suhumi and Batumi, and the Georgians also have their own ports, Poddy.

At a dawn of storms, the fleet arrived at Port Podie.

Although the fleet was very fast, Solomon I, the king of West Georgia, still received news. Obviously, this news was also spread by the Truchens.
