The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

　　 "We won this battle!" A staff officer quickly broke into the conference room on the flagship and yelled: "We have won, Randa Fortress is ours!"

　　 Hearing this sentence, Admiral Cabot was having lunch at the time, and he heard him blinking and asking the officer next to him: "I heard that right?"

　　 sat next to the deputy general Liu Guoxuan. He smiled and said, "Sir, do I need me to pinch you to try?"

　　 "Then I can hear you clearly!" Cabot chuckled and asked the staff: "Did you really win?" 1

　　 "You won, you won!" The staff officer said repeatedly: "I saw our flag on the city wall, and the city gate opened!"

　　 "Okay!" Cabot said happily, assigning the major staff officer: "You take all the wine here ashore, and give it to the brothers in the Marine Corps. Congratulate them, and at the same time see what's going on there, and report back to me!"

　　 "Yes!" the staff officer responded.

　　 Major Zhou Nianchen on the city wall looked at the fleeing Dutch. They left the city gate and fled to a port city a little further away. Bullets flying out of the city were chasing them, and one or two people fell to the ground from time to time.

　　 There were a lot of people fleeing, at least more than the Marines, but they were all on the run, and no one organized a counterattack.

　　 At this time, a group of people came. Among them was a reporter. He introduced himself as Wang Yunsheng, a war correspondent sent by the South China Daily. He came to interview him and asked him how he felt about victory.

　　 "We actually won!" Zhou Nianchen felt incredible, but it was true.

"It's not easy!" His eyes were a little moist. Thinking of the hardships of being a Marine, he couldn't help feeling deeply. He couldn't help speaking to reporters from the bottom of his heart: "Our Marines have the ability to turn decay into magic. To make the impossible possible, we must strengthen ourselves, because we are'third-class people'!"

　　 He named the third class, and Wang Yunsheng went to find out the truth, and found good writing materials.

　　In the army sequence of the South China Empire, the navy drinks alcohol and is a first-class person, the army smokes a second-class person, and the Marines eat candy, a third-class person!

　　 On the price list, of course, wine is the most expensive, cigarettes are second, and candy is the cheapest. Soldiers who eat candy are regarded as "children"!

　　 It’s impossible for the Marine Corps to smoke or drink. The Marine Corps cannot light a cigarette while staying on a wooden warship. When fighting ashore, they cannot drink alcohol to avoid driving the wrong car. They can only chew toffee.

Compared with the "first-class" navy and the "second-class" army, the Marine Corps has the smallest number of people. The so-called population is large, the number is small, the specifications are half short, the funds are low, the equipment is average, the training intensity is high, and overseas The deployment is frequent and the combat environment is notoriously dangerous.

　　The navy is the richest. A battleship is more than 150,000 silver dollars, and a few hundred warships are tens to hundreds of millions of silver dollars. The army has a large number of people and is also equipped with various technical equipment such as the Yicheng cannon, field artillery, flying thunder cannon, and catapult.

　　What equipment does the Marine Corps have?

Most of them are muskets and bombs, and the heavy equipment is much less. Even when landing on the beach, in order to avoid jumping into the water and sinking like a mound, many people don’t wear armor or helmets and just go forward. Moving forward, when the naval battleships can resist 18-pound shells with their bulwarks, and the army uses thick armor to stiff forward assault, the armor of the Marines is only a layer of clothing and skin!

　　 In order to save money, the Marine Corps does not have its own junior officer school, and officers are mainly trained by naval academies. In addition, the Marine Corps does not have its own medical personnel (so that it can save funds for the establishment of another military medical university). Instead, naval officers and soldiers perform these two duties. Therefore, some medical soldiers generally wear Marine Corps uniforms and Marine Corps badges, but use Navy name tags.

　　Most of the Marine Corps medals are also shared with the Navy. For example, the Naval Meritorious Medal and other naval versions of medals can be issued directly to the Marine Corps.

　　 Therefore, the Marine Corps is inherently inferior to others, and it is largely dependent on the Navy, so in the strict sense it is only a partial service.

For the Navy, it is the battleships. The Marine Corps above is only incidental. At the same time, the Marine Corps is also squeezed out by the Army. Since the Marine Corps usually conduct amphibious assault operations for a short period of time, they mainly conduct ground operations after landing. There is a lot of overlap with the Army’s missions. Therefore, the Army has repeatedly proposed to reduce the size of the Marine Corps, especially when military expenditures are greatly reduced. Army generals took the opportunity to propose to allocate the tasks and assets of the Marine Corps to the Army and the Navy. Threatened the survival of the Marine Corps.

Both China have marine corps. The marine corps of South China is larger and better equipped. The situation of the Marine Corps of North China is even worse. It is the leader of the North China Army and the Navy ranks second. It is an extension of the Navy. The treatment of the Marine Corps can be imagined. The Marine Corps' ground weapons and equipment selection is guided by the Army, and they rarely have independent weapons and equipment options. In addition, the funds on hand are very small, and the level of equipment is far worse than that of the Army. It uses second-hand goods eliminated by the Army.

　　For example, the North China Marine Corps has the worst musket equipment rate, and it is still using the early and backward muskets, even the latest muskets are useless.

　　 If it were not for the exchanges between the North China Marine Corps, the South China Marine Corps generously supported a batch of cutting-edge muskets from the North China Marine Corps ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ which greatly improved their combat.

　　 Under such circumstances, "strict training and tenacious style" is the label of the Marine Corps, because they do not have heavy artillery fire during naval battles and can only rely on the guns in their hands, so they must practice their marksmanship well.

　　 There was no heavy artillery during land warfare. They relied on muskets, and muskets were their most reliable comrades.

At the same time, the Marine Corps is undertaking some siege missions. They don’t have the support of well fences, ladders, or catapults, and they don’t have enough manpower to build a mountain. Therefore, for the Marine Corps, they use flying claws to climb the walls. Flying over the wall is a piece of cake!

After learning about some inside stories, Wang Yunsheng wrote some articles, intensively reporting on the Marine Corps. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to expose the military contradictions. Once the lid was opened, he would be finished. Hardships and hardships, for example, when the Marines do not wear armor when they land, it is not that they do not, but to better assault the enemy and increase speed. It is to give up protection and increase attack speed.

　　 Report to the world the record of the Marine Corps. They have fought many tough and bad battles. They are all elites. The capture of the Randa Fortress is one of them.

　　 Eight hundred people have taken a turf guarded by two thousand people. It’s great, the Marines!
