Chapter 882 Negotiations with Nelson
Although it was confirmed that he would choose the third divergent choice, Yun Xiaohan was not in a hurry to confirm it. Before that, he still had other things to do first.

Yun Xiaohan found Nelson and asked him about the status of the fleet.

Nelson told Yun Yanhan that he planned to divide the fleet into three teams. One team was the main combat fleet responsible for controlling the sea and defending the city of Cassis. In order to ensure the speed, this fleet would not load supplies until the end of this operation; The two teams are transport fleets, which will dispatch a small number of warships to escort them and take turns to transport looted supplies to and from Sardinia.

This kind of detachment is a very standard one, neither good nor bad. If Yun Xiaohan doesn't take the initiative to interact with Nelson, he will automatically adopt this kind of detachment. After the supplies are filled with a transport fleet, This transport fleet will set off, and then another transport fleet will start loading supplies. Before this fleet is full, the previous fleet will return, and the two fleets will alternate, so that There will be no window period, and materials can be loaded on the ship all the time.

Before the start of the battle, Yun Xiaohan had carefully considered the difficulties he might encounter in the battle, and made a plan. Although the situation he faced at this time was somewhat different from his plan, the difference was not particularly large, so He only needs to modify the plan to form a custom plan.

In his plan, Nelson's division is not very suitable, so he intends to modify it. He suggested to Nelson: "Your Excellency Nelson, I hope you can adjust the division. I need you to divide the fleet into four divisions." , the main combat fleet does not need to make much changes, but the two transport fleets you originally planned should be split into three transport fleets, one of which is slightly larger and can have a few more warships and transport ships, the other two transport fleets are slightly smaller.

The two smaller transport fleets are still transporting goods in the city of Ivas, while the larger one is following me on the sea. I will lead my troops to move along the coastline and launch an attack when I find a coastal town suitable for attacking , I will send out a signal after I capture the town, and the slightly larger transport fleet can enter the port to load supplies. "

"Excuse me, Your Excellency Yun Xiaohan, please interrupt, you mean that you don't need battleships to cooperate with the attack?" Nelson hurriedly interrupted and asked when he heard this.

"That's right, without the cooperation of warships, the city of Cassis can only be taken without preparation, but this kind of thing is indispensable. A few enemies escaped just now, so the news of our invasion must have spread. It is not cost-effective to use warships to attack the coastal defense system, even if it is a simple coastal defense system. Your ship is much more expensive than their coastal defense guns.

And in order to complete this operation better, sea control and sea transportation capacity are the key. We can let the people assist us in moving supplies, but we cannot suddenly add a large number of ships for you, so the key to limit our harvest size is the size of your fleet , so we must cherish the use of your fleet.

What's more, we won't just attack one town in the future, and we will fight all the way. Even if the accumulation is small, the losses will not be small. Once your battle fleet suffers heavy losses due to storming the coast, we may even lose command of the sea. Just can't do anything.

After all, the coastal defense system is facing the sea and cannot defend against land attacks. Moreover, most of the enemy's troops have been withdrawn. Everyone in the business alliance territory is in danger, and the possibility of sending reinforcements is very small. In addition, the enemy does not know where we will attack next, so it is impossible to provide support, so the land attack is still very sure.

More importantly, our shipbuilding capabilities are not as good as those of the Merchant Alliance. In order to maintain a long-term maritime strategic advantage, you and your fleet are extremely important. I can fight, but I can't help Sardin lead shipbuilding, nor can I help you Improve the level of shipbuilding. "Yun Xiaohan finally laughed at himself.

"That's right, His Excellency Yun Xiaohan's statement really hit the nail on the head. I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of the navy even though you were born in the army. It's really admirable. On behalf of me and my subordinates, I thank you for your importance and respect for us." Compassionate, we will do our best to cooperate with you." As soon as Nelson finished speaking, Yun Xiaohan received a system prompt, and Nelson's favorability for him was raised from "familiarity" to "friendship".

Nelson's favorability for Yun Xiaohan was originally about 75% of the "familiarity" progress bar, and now it was 25% of "friendship", which was almost half a level up.

Next, Nelson followed up and said: "Your Excellency Yun Xiaohan, we have just captured some warships and merchant ships, and we can add these ships to the slightly larger transport fleet you requested."

"This is not good. You should add the warships and merchant ships captured by these captives to the other two smaller transport fleets, and replace the original ships of the Thunderstorm Legion, especially with flexible and high-speed warships. Form that larger transport fleet, so that this transport fleet can have a stronger combat effectiveness, and in terms of carrying capacity, some standards can be lowered." Yun Xiaohan held a different view.

"Your Excellency, you mean to guard against possible enemy ships in the enemy's port?"

"Exactly. After all, you may encounter small enemy fleets wandering around. It is always good to be prepared. In addition, if possible, it is best to capture more enemy warships and merchant ships.

Needless to say, if you encounter the enemy's small fleet, just go up and start fighting.If there are enemy ships in the enemy port, it depends on how they react. If they rush out of the port, you will chase them down. This is why I hope you can bring more flexible and high-speed warships; It would be even better not to leave the port. When we control the coastal defense system from land, they can only choose to surrender (the navy in the game has just emerged, and there is no tradition of warships sinking, not to mention that everyone in the business alliance is doing business. There is no such self-sinking atmosphere).

And transport ships don't need too many, too many transport ships will reduce the combat effectiveness of this fleet, the carrying capacity is almost enough, as long as the carrying capacity can be kept until the arrival of the next transport fleet. "Yun Xiaohan analyzed.

"The arrival of the next batch of transport fleets? Your Excellency Yun Yanhan, I wanted to ask earlier, why did you split the two transport fleets into three transport fleets instead of four? Two fleets are better." Rotation. Are you worried that the single fleet will appear weaker after being divided into four fleets?"
