Chapter 3059
Morgan had spent months laying out the San Diego Bay, not just to snag the place.Spain's maritime armed forces on the west coast of North America are his real goal.
According to the information he had previously obtained, Morgan can basically be sure that the armed fleet currently moored outside San Diego Bay is basically all the troops that Spain can mobilize in this area.
As long as this fleet is eliminated, it is tantamount to eliminating Spain's mobile power on the west coast of North America. It will be difficult for the opponent to recover for a period of time, and they will no longer be able to launch a counterattack against Haihan.
Naturally, what Morgan wants is to accomplish all his achievements in one battle. It is actually not difficult to defeat his opponent, but to destroy him, he must use some special means.
Judging from the comparison of the strength of the two fleets, even if the Spanish fleet has set up a battle position outside the bay in advance, the Haihan fleet can break through its encirclement by virtue of the performance advantages of its warships.It's just that if the opponent finds that the situation is wrong and flees in all directions, it will be difficult to completely eliminate them.
And trying to introduce the Spanish fleet into the bay, Morgan can turn the enemy into the main, command the fleet to break through the enemy's position, and then seize the entrance and exit of the bay to achieve a reverse blockade of the Spanish fleet.At that time, the Spanish fleet stuck in the bay would be unable to fly. Either they would fight the Haihan fleet to the end, or they could only abandon the ship and go ashore, seeking to escape by land.
But how to let the cunning and suspicious Spanish fleet fall into the net, it must have the cooperation of Aragones.
Two days later, there was a heavy exchange of fire between Haihan and Spanish settlements in the bay.Unsurprisingly, the Spanish fleet anchored outside the bay received a call for help from Aragones again.
But this time Aragones did not ask his own fleet to rescue the settlement, but told DeSantis that he successfully organized a nighttime sneak attack against the Haihan fleet and burned several Haihan warships in one fell swoop.At present, the Haihan fleet is in chaos, and the commander of the other side ordered the garrison to attack the Spanish settlements in order to retaliate.
At this time, if DeSantis' fleet can rush into the bay, it can just launch an attack on the Haihan fleet that is still fighting the fire.And the opponent's army is attacking the settlement in two ways, one of which is even fighting across the sea. Even if DeSantis' fleet is found rushing into the bay, they will not have time to return to the base camp.
DeSantis was still a little hesitant at first, feeling that he was still not sure of victory, but the messenger sent by Aragones claimed that the flagship with the largest tonnage and most powerful firepower in the Haihan fleet had capsized in the fire.This means that the command system of the Haihan Fleet has temporarily disintegrated, but such fighters will certainly not last long, and they must seize the opportunity to attack immediately.
DeSantis immediately ordered that all warships of the fleet immediately enter the bay and directly attack the Haihan base.
He asked Aragones' messenger to rush back to report, and told Aragones to hold back the Haihan army as much as possible, and he would rush to rescue them as soon as possible.
DeSantis thought very clearly that no matter how strong Haihan's army was, its mobility was limited and it had to rely on seaborne supplies.As long as the Haihan fleet in the bay is wiped out and its sea transportation channel is cut off, even if the Haihan army captures the two immigrant settlements, nothing will happen.
So he didn't intend to rescue Aragones, as long as he could destroy the Haihan fleet in the bay, it would be worth sacrificing two settlements.
If such a precious fighter plane was missed in order to rescue those immigrants, and the Haihan people slowed down to reorganize the fleet and control the waters in the bay, it would be a waste of work.
As for the life and death of Aragones, DeSantis can only let him ask for blessings.
If Aragones' fate is hard, he should be able to survive until the fleet finishes attacking the Haihan base before returning to rescue.If he doesn't last until then, DeSantis will declare his deeds of dying for the country for him in order to create a fighter for himself.
At the same time, Aragones is also anxiously waiting for DeSantis's movements.
There was a rumble of gunfire outside the settlement, but he wasn't worried that a shell would hit his head, because it was just a play for Hai Han.As for the night attack on the Haihan base and the burning of the Haihan warship, it was all false information provided to DeSantis according to Morgan's instructions.
If none of these methods worked and DeSantis still didn't come, then Haihan would make a fake show and take the two settlements in the bay directly, and then go to liquidate DeSantis' fleet.
But if the situation goes to that point, Aragones' treatment after the war will be greatly reduced, and he can only save the lives of the family, but the family's property will be confiscated by Haihan.
Although it is a bit inhumane to trade DeSantis' fleet for the safety of his family, under the current situation, Aragones has no choice.
Besides, who made DeSantis stay on hold for more than ten days?He made it clear that he was waiting for an opportunity to appear when the Haihan army attacked the settlements, and traded the safety of Aragones and the two thousand local immigrants for a fighter.
DeSantis has been dying, so don't blame yourself for using this as a condition for survival.At this time when he could only choose between life and death, Aragones would no longer feel guilty.
Of course, what is in front of DeSantis is not entirely a dead end.
First, a miracle happened, he really defeated the Haihan fleet.While the chances of this happening are extremely small, it's not entirely impossible.
Second, DeSantis gave up the opportunity to directly attack the Haihan base and chose to save the settlement of Aragones first.In this way, his fleet will not sail into the depths of the bay, and there is still a chance to turn around and escape.
If DeSantis really chose the second course of action, then Aragones might try to save him out of compatriots.But if DeSantis chooses not to save him for the sake of winning the war, he is asking for his own death, no wonder others.
After the fleet sailed into the bay, DeSantis still carefully observed the surrounding situation.He was very worried that the information provided by Aragones had been neglected, and it was hard to say whether the local settlements could last until his fleet reached its destination.If you find that the situation is not right, you have to leave this place as soon as possible.
The sound of rumbling cannons was heard from the distant coast, and fireworks were faintly visible, as if the battle was still in progress.Only then did DeSantis feel a little relieved, and ordered to speed up.
The adjutant came to ask whether to send some people ashore to reinforce the local settlements, but DeSantis angrily reprimanded him.
"The mission of the local garrison is to hold back the Haihan people and create opportunities for us. What we have to do is to go to the Haihan base and kill their ships! Don't worry about their lives and continue to carry out the mission!"
