Chapter 129

() Du Si Hongxianchun did not lead the fleet straight to Tongshan without "passionately" with his "publicity". Tongshan is the base camp of the pirates. There are no less than three or four hundred warships anchored in the bay. If he rushes in, he will definitely be defeated but not defeated. The ships in his hands are all the property of Fujian, and he cannot afford to lose! If he loses, not only will he be unable to protect his life, but even the governor Zhu Yifeng, who has the kindness of knowing him, will also be implicated, so he aims at the old town of Zhangpu (county).

Now, I'm afraid the leader Zheng Zhilong himself doesn't know how many soldiers there are under the Pirate Alliance. Not all the thieves are in Tongshan. There are chapters of pirates who settle down in Nan'ao, Jiazhou, Yunxiao, Laozhen and other places.

.The old town is located dozens of miles northeast of Tongshan, Futouwanan between Liuao and Gulei. Due to its outstanding geographical location, many pirates gathered here. They intend to lead their fleet to attack by sea, cooperate with the officers and soldiers of Zhangzhou Prefecture, Zhangpu County and other places on the shore to destroy the bandits' nest in the old town and seduce Zheng Zhilong. It is best to lead him to ashore. The Fujian Navy and Zheng Zhilong are too different, and there is no possibility of victory, but the land soldiers are not bad. In March, the land soldiers defeated Zheng Zhilong's mighty power in Zhangpu. This time, the land soldiers were several times higher than before.

If Zheng Zhilong had relied on the number of people and underestimated the officers and soldiers, he would have to give him a big defeat and drive him out of Fujian. He immediately led the warships to suddenly arrive and blocked dozens of pirate ships at the port of the old town. Standing on the helm tower, he shouted coldly. He pulled the corners of his mouth gently, and was used to being called "Duyuanrong". At first, he felt an indescribable pleasure in his heart. He thought that the name "Yuanrong" would have to endure for 10 or 20 years to enjoy it, and he never dreamed that it would be realized so soon, so he respected Zhu Yifeng more.

The commander of the Dushi Department was indeed very powerful at the beginning of the country, but to this day he was not even as good as a guerrilla (general), let alone the superior general, deputy general, general. Zhu Yifeng promoted him. Now he even let him replace the general Yu Zigao and serve as the commander of the Fujian Navy. He knew the kindness and support of his love, and Hong Xianchun wanted to repay Zhu Yifeng even if he sacrificed his life.

"kill!"

The officers and soldiers surrounded the exit and put down fifty or sixty fire ships in one breath. The passionate people rushed into the port of the old town. The thieves on the ship rushed to lift their sails in a hurry and tried to escape, but they were one step late. The officers and soldiers fire ships rushed into the sky with an indomitable aura. The pirate ships were like targets, burning or exploding, and in an instant, the flames soared into the sky and black smoke.

This battle came quickly and went quickly. Thousands of pirates in the old town were attacked by officers and soldiers from both sea and land. Even reinforcements could not wait, but they died, surrendered, and fled. However, there was no slightest feeling on their faces, but they became even more nervous. He knew very well that this battle was at best an appetizer. Once Zheng Zhilong’s main force arrived, it would be a shocking battle.

…………

"Yuan Rong. I came to report from the front that Zheng thieves have arrived. There are about 300 ships, large ships and huge cannons." I thought silently, and looked up at the sky. At this time, Hongri was in the west, and it was already afternoon. "Just just stick to it until dark, and then lead Zheng Zhilong to the shore just stick to it until dark. You must stick to it until dark!" Then he sneered and said, "Tell Xu (Xinsu) that the huge ships of his ships are the manifestation of our army, to strengthen our army's reputation, and to order his troops to be the vanguard, leading his troops to lead the vanguard,

First, fight with the thief, only win but not defeat." The red barbarians were beaten away by Zheng Zhilong, and Xu Xinsu naturally lost the only remaining value of use. At present, his hometown of Chonglong (Longxi County, Zhangzhou Prefecture) was controlled by the government. He was already Hong Xianc, a bastard who only knew how to flatter the governor Zhu Yifeng, and actually asked me to wait to die?! Why didn't he go by himself?! Brother, I must not agree to him!" Xu Xinlan said to Xu Xinsu angrily.

Looking at his brother who was furious and disobedient, Xu Xinsu sighed: "I don't want to go either, but I can't go. The government threatened me and my family, so how could I choose?"

"If you want to go, I won't go." Xu Xinlan waved her hand and said decisively. Xu Xinsu kept her eldest son Xu Letian and second son Xu Yilong at home but forced him to come, and Xu Xinlan held up a lot of resentment in her heart, making it clear that Xu Xinsu attaches more importance to her son's life and does not pay attention to his younger brother's life. He sold his life for Xu Xinsu for the rest of his life, and ended up like this?

"Random!" Xu Xinsu glared and shouted. It was at such a critical moment, but Xu Xinlan was still so reluctant. He was completely desperate for this younger brother who could not stand on the wall. "If you dare to say something nonsense, I will break your legs immediately!"

Xu Xinsu has a strong power, and Xu Xinlan is afraid and dare not speak again.

Xu Xinsu sighed again: "You and my brothers work together to spend the sadness in front of us. After that, everything will be fine. If we can't pass it, we will enjoy everything we should enjoy in this life, and it will not be considered a loss."

Xu Xinlan doesn't want to die. There are several beautiful maids in his family who have not deflowered, but what can he do?

In the slit between the Six Ao and Gulei Peninsula, one officer and soldier warship after another was launched, with one sermon and five ships in a row, each array in several rows, facing the fierce pirate fleet. It has to be said that although Hong Xianchun had no reputation and no military achievements, there were quite rules in the marching formations. Xu Xinlan scolded him for "nothing skills", which was unfair.

Even if Huang Chen does not use a telescope, he can see that most of the official warships are less than ten feet away. The deck is densely filled with officers and soldiers, including armored soldiers and firearms, which is completely different from the ones. It seems that Zhu Yifeng has really taken out a lot of money for this battle. It can be understood that if he loses this battle again, Zhu Yifeng will lose his official position, and of course he will use all means to increase his chances of victory.

"What a pity..." Huang Chen shook his head, not to mention that Zheng Zhilong seized two Dutch sea ships and dozens of Western-style naval guns during the pursuit of Dewet, only that his fleet had a total of sixty red cannons. What did the officers and soldiers use to resist? Are they flesh and blood?

"Tell me the order, leave the fleet, rush over from the flanks, and seize the upper hand." Huang Chen ordered calmly. The strong northeastern wind was blowing on the South China Sea in December, and the pirate fleet came from Tongshan in the southwest and was in the face of the wind. Fighting against the wind, on the one hand, it caused slow movement, and on the other hand, the smoke from the guns and cannons would be rolled back. The latter point was a big trouble for the Huang Chen fleet with many guns and cannons. Therefore, the fleet must grab the upper hand, set off the fire, and give all the lead bullets and smoke to the enemy.

Yang Dong couldn't help but say, "Big leader, why bother me? I know how much pounds the officers and soldiers are. As long as we kill together, the cannons and the guns will be slammed. The official army will be defeated in a short time."

"You know what's the point." Huang Chen glanced at Yang Dong with a sideways: "What's the problem if you don't get scolded for a day? Go and send the order."

Yang Dong was cursed and calmed down and obediently went to pass the order. He didn't want to stop him. He ordered Xu Xinsu and his team of soldiers to attack Zheng Zhilong's army. He led a team of soldiers to follow him, but he had the idea of ​​biting Zheng Zhilong without reassurance. In his opinion, most pirates were selfish and he only fought with Zheng Zhilong. Someone would be happy to see such a situation. It would be better to be enemies with all the pirates. Underestimated Zheng Zhilong's strength, the latter had a large number of red barbarian cannons, which was so horrifying that nearly half of Xu Xinsu's soldiers were blown away in just one hour. No wonder he was, after all, he had never fought with Zheng Zhilong, and the latter had captured Dutch sea ships in close proximity, and his strength had improved.

After successfully circling behind the officers and soldiers, Huang Chen immediately ordered the war. Ruan Jin, Lin Xishan and Zhang Xing each drove several ships, advancing in unison like a trident, and entered the rear army of the officers and soldiers, regardless of distinction. Zhao Hongyi, Chen Si and Zhuang Mo were the second tier, and followed the gap torn by the former. Huang Chen led more than a dozen warships in the headquarters to be the third tier and slowly followed.

As the first person in naval battle under Huang Chen, Ruan Jin was known for his fierce military use and was the sharpest sword in Huang Chen's hand. Lin Xishan was both civil and military, brave and good at fighting, and was not as good as Ruan Jin. Zhang Xing was resentful and cruel. His military use was exactly the same as his wise style, violent and fierce, and he was not as good as his right. Huang Chen used these three men as the first army, and planned to defeat the officers and soldiers in one fell swoop.

The three of them did not disappoint Huang Chen, and they rushed into the enemy formation, rushed around, cutting the rear army composed of dozens of ships into pieces.

Zhao Hongyi is only stable in his military use, Chen Si is mediocre, Zhuang Mo is not good at water battles, and it is not unreasonable for the three of them to be arranged by Huang Chen in the back. There were Ruan, Lin and Zhang in front of them, and most of the ships under their command also had a red cannon as the first cannon. If the situation was not opened under such favorable conditions, they would not have the shame to be the leader of the team without Huang Chen saying anything.

Huang Chen sent six brigades to attack for the first time. When he led the fleet to kill, the officers and soldiers were in a dilemma of fighting each other, and the general could not find the sentry officer, the captain could not be found, and the command system was completely paralyzed. Huang Chen's 12-meter Dafu ship flagship, the "Houston" and other ships had many guns at close range. There were few officers and soldiers who could resist. One of them was even hit by Huang Chen's fleet in a round of attacks, causing a violent explosion and sank to the bottom of the sea. The officers and soldiers became more and more desperate, and eventually collapsed, either rushed to the front army or fled to both sides. (To be continued...)
