Stenson sat on a large chair with two bars tied to the side of the chair. He was lifted out of the camp. After learning that the entire Navy of Wieskel's army was destroyed, he vomited blood and fell into a coma. After waking up, his legs no longer felt any more.

The entire team was filled with miserable mist, and no one knew what to do next. Moving forward, the Shiyanshan defense line was like a iron wall, firmly blocking in front of them. Until now, they had not even seen the enemy clearly, and they left countless bodies. Before that line of defense, they sent two detour teams to the left and right wings. No news has been heard back yet. No news is the worst news, at least because of their detour. In front of them, there must be a block of the Ming army. After seeing the enemy's firepower of the Shiyanshan Fortress, no one felt that their detour had the possibility of success.

The only hope now is that after His Majesty Danci and Mattus can win, they will turn around and rescue them.

This result was actually something Stenson didn't want to see, because even if he was rescued, his status in the Tiger Dynasty would drop sharply in the future. Mattus, who had been suppressed by him, would ride on him because of this incident. Of course, compared with his current situation, those now seem to be no longer important.

"Have you sent someone to pass the orders to the army on both sides of the left and right?" Stenson's speech was a little unclear.

"Dagong, the people sent have set out." A general whispered.

"There is no need to lose any more troops. What we have to do now is to shrink our troops and wait for rescue." Stenson showed a look of pain in his face. "If we can conquer the defense line in front of us, the result will certainly be better."

"Duke, I want to give it a try again." Another general stepped forward to Stenson and said loudly, "After breaking this line of defense, we can always take the initiative. If we can win the Port of Manju, we will not only grab more ships. We can also master the entire Pattaya based on the Port of Manju, so that we can have room for activities and the resources we need. At that time, whether it is fighting or retreating, we must be much more calm. Although the Navy is gone, our army still has strong combat power."

"Don't you know how much combat effectiveness of our army is left now?" Stenson sighed: "When we were in a prosperous state of morale, we didn't take down this line of defense, and now it's even more impossible."

"Grand Duke, the mourning soldiers will win."

"Once we cannot win, and encounter setbacks, this force will collapse." Stenson shook his head and said, "Now we can still effectively control the army. Once that situation occurs, we will be truly doomed. Now we can only wait for news from His Majesty Dancy. If we win there, our sluggish morale will really rise again. At that time, it is time for us to launch a counterattack."

After hearing Stenson's words, everyone nodded involuntarily. Their family knew their family affairs. Even if they could organize a group of people who dared to fight to launch an attack, they would win or lose, and no one could guarantee that they would be defeated.

"What exactly is the enemy's weapon? Why is it so sharp?" A general looked at the direction of Shi Yanshan and finally couldn't help asking such a question that was hidden deep in everyone's hearts.

Such weapons are equipped on their warships and in their army, the heavy armored soldiers swept across the Western Continent of the Tiger Dynasty had no resistance under the attack of these weapons. Many heavy armored soldiers who were moved back had severely deformed their armor and were even torn apart.

"That is the weapon of the demon Satan." A trace of fear flashed in Stenson's eyes. At this moment, what he was most worried about was that the fleet that the enemy had been dealing with at first was a traditional sailing fleet. In the confrontation with Wiskele, he lost again and again until the latest warship appeared.

So where did this powerful fleet go before? Did it go to sightseeing? This is obviously a joke. They are very likely to go to deal with His Majesty Danci or Mattus. No matter who they are going to deal with, I am afraid that the team will be in danger. But he dare not tell this guess, which will only make his morale more turbulent.

"Da Duke, the gate of the main fort on the opposite defense line is opened." A personal soldier who was holding a telescope and watching the Ming army defense line in the distance suddenly shouted loudly.

Today, Grand Duke Stenson brought a group of generals to observe the enemy's defense line, so he naturally had to be careful. If the enemy suddenly attacked and there was no preparation here, wouldn't he end up with the destruction of the entire army?

"The guard is on guard and is ready to cover the Grand Duke's retreat to the camp." A general shouted. "How many people have come out of the enemy, are they cavalry or infantry?"

"It's an infantryman." The soldier said, "No, why are there only a dozen people? No, no."

"What's wrong?" The general was very annoyed and snatched the telescope from the soldier's hand, put it in front of him, and looked at it in person.

He was stunned when he saw this.

The gate of the enemy's main fort opposite was indeed opened, but after walking out more than a dozen people, they closed tightly. The telescope moved down and pointed it at the dozen bare-handed guys. After just one look, he recognized that those people were obviously soldiers in their own army.

He swallowed and looked back at Stenson: "Duke, we are our soldiers, probably captured soldiers, and for some reason they released them back."

Stenson was silent for a moment and said, "They may have brought back some news, just wait here. I want to see what new tricks Mingren wants to play?"

What Ming wanted to do, Stenson really couldn't figure out what he wanted to do. When the Mingren warships bombed the troop transport ships and supplies ships that were anchored in the bay two days ago, the Mingren could have launched a large-scale counterattack immediately. If the Mingren did this, Stenson believed that he would not have more choices than to fail and die in the battle.

But the Ming people stopped moving.

He didn't think that the generals of the Ming people were so stupid. It must be because there was a reason. First, the enemy's troops in the opposite defense line were seriously insufficient. Even in the face of such a situation, he could not launch a large-scale counterattack. After all, there were tens of thousands of soldiers who came ashore. Second, if the Ming people had enough troops, they had other plans. And this goal must be extremely large, otherwise they would not have seen such a great battle result in front of them, but could remain calm.

What does the Mingren want?

Gaisen's pace was extremely heavy, and wherever he passed, there were blood stains, and most of them had turned purple and black. Although the Ming people allowed Stenson to take back the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle, the blood flowed out could not be taken away. In many places, the soil had completely turned purple and black. Occasionally, some parts of some people's bodies could be seen from the grass and in the cracks of the rocks.

The Grand Duke of Venetian was bleeding from his head here, but he still found nothing.

Soon, he walked through the battlefield and saw the old man sitting on a chair surrounded by the group of people in front of him. His body trembled, but immediately accelerated his pace and trotted forward.

"Grand Duke." Gaisen stopped a few steps across Stenson, and as soon as he opened his mouth, tears couldn't help but flow.

Stenson looked at the young man in front of him, but he looked familiar. After thinking about it, he suddenly remembered who this person was.

"You are Gaisen, you are not dead? Still alive!" He was surprised at first, but then he was a little happy. No matter what, this person was also a member of the Venetian family.

"Dagong, as the pioneer of the army, I met the Ming army's scout ships on the sea. We were defeated, and three warships were sunk two on the spot. My one was broken with sails, masts, and rudders. I could not move, and finally became their captives." Gaisen lowered his head in shame.

"Is it the kind of warship with strange speed at black smoke?" Stenson did not mean to blame Gaisen. Even Wiskele was defeated. What were Gaisen's only three warships?

"That's Mingren's steam artillery warship!" Gaisen explained.

"Mr. Gaisen, you come from the Shiyanshan defense line. How many Ming troops are there?" A general asked anxiously. If the army is not large, they can launch an attack to the death.

Gaisen looked at the general and sighed: "In the Shiyanshan defense line, there were more than 20,000 troops in the Ming Dynasty, of which more than 5,000 troops were from the Ming Dynasty. The others included the army of Manila and the troops they recruited."

Hearing this number, the general immediately became depressed.

"Gesen, you've been captured for some time. Where have you been these days?" Stenson asked.

"Duke, I have been staying in Manju Port. Those Ming people did not abuse me, but instead gave me good treatment."

"Why?"

Gaisen said with a wry smile: "It's for the present moment."

"Send you to persuade me to surrender?" Stenson laughed.

Gaisen shook his head and said, "Duke, I met Uncle Wieskel in Port Manju."

"Wiskael is not dead?" Stenson widened his eyes, holding the chair handle with both hands, trying to stand up, but his soft and weak legs made him sit down hard as soon as he raised his butt.

"I didn't die, but I was seriously injured. I am now recuperating at the Port of Manju." Gaisen said: "Don't worry, the Ming people have a high medical skills. When I left the Port of Manju, Uncle Wieskel was basically fine. And those who were captured, the injured were all treated in the hospital of the Ming people. There were only a very small number of people who were seriously injured."

All these news were greatly surprised by Stensen's surprise. The person in front of him obviously would not deceive him, but what did Mingren want to do this?
