Chapter 141 The cannon fires in Qiongzhou (Chinese)

The young man in Mai looked up again and thought deeply.

In just two days, the rioters in Qiongzhou who were unwilling to obey the orders of the Southern Song court suddenly launched a fierce attack on the three counties of Lehui, Lingao and Chengmai. They were said to be rioters, but in fact they were the natives who originally lived in Qiongzhou, and now they still occupy half of the territory in Qiongzhou and competed with the Southern Song army.

The war instantly spread throughout Qiongzhou.

Fortunately, all counties have received dense forests and are ready to fight. It is even more difficult for the rioters to break through the county town.

Zhao Dongting received this news in the village and immediately ordered Liu Hongyi and Zhao Yuluo to lead the army to set off. He himself led the Feilong Army to follow Liu Hongyi to the coast of Puqianwan in the Qiongzhou Prefecture.

There were only ten grenade launchers, and he was equipped with all of them for use in the Flying Army.

Two more days later.

The night was dark and the sea breeze was howling. Even if Puqian Bay went deep into the inland, the sea was still rolling.

Zhao Dongting and Liu Hongyi's army were stationed in the forest only a few miles away from the sea.

Suddenly, a scout who was guarding the coast rushed to the camp to report, "Emperor, General Liu, the enemy's ship has arrived at Puqian Bay!"

"good!"

Zhao Dongting's face became a little excited, "Let the three armies remain unmoved for the time being, let all their warships enter Puqian Bay!"

In the past two days, the counties and the rioters have suffered a lot of losses in combat. Now, it is finally time to close the net.

Next to him, the young man in Mai also looked a little solemn.

"Boom!"

After dozens of minutes of a slightly nervous atmosphere, suddenly, a loud noise came from the coast.

Liu Hongyi stood up and said, "The enemy scouts stepped on the landmine at regular intervals!"

Zhao Dongting immediately slapped the table, "General Liu, you can lead the army to the coast and annihilate the enemy!"

"The last general will receive the order!"

Liu Hongyi hurried out of the tent with his fists.

Zhao Dongting looked at the young man in Mai and smiled and said, "The victory is decided at this moment. Can you tell me who you are?"

The Yuan army and the pirates did attack Qiongzhou Island from Puqianwan, which made him very happy and admired the young man in Mai. This guy was like Zhuge Liang's life, and his judgment on the battle situation was unpredictable, which made people feel thrilled.

"Qin Han."

The young man in Mai replied slowly.

However, Zhao Dongting didn't know the name. He just nodded and said, "I will give you another reward when I return to the court with triumph."

The young man in Mai didn't say anything anymore.

On the Yuan army and the pirate commander's ship, Murong Chuan was standing proudly at the bow of the ship, full of energy and murderous intent in his eyes, but at this moment, when he heard the landmines explode and a fire suddenly exploded on the shore, his face could not stop changing slightly.

Even though he was not the general who led the army to fight, he could see that there must be an ambush in the Song army. In other words, their movements have long been under the control of the Song army.

Beside him was a tall Yuan army general wearing pitch-black armor and tassel helmet, but this time he was the commander of the Yuan army sent by Ali Hague to attack Qiongzhou.

Toheti and Ali Hague are both Uyghurs, and are brothers from Ali Hague. They are deeply trusted and important to Ali Hague. He has a high forehead, a straight nose, and a distinct facial features. He is a typical Uyghur look. Seeing the fire, he exclaimed in a low voice, "The Song army is aware of the movements of our army, and ambush here!"

Murong Chuan did not make a decision in the war, but instead bowed a little, asking, "Thank Marshal Heti, what should we do?"

Now he has only sent dozens of scouts to the island, and he is dead and he doesn't feel distressed.

At this moment, Murong Chuan felt a little relieved.

Tuoheti's deep eyes looked deep into the shore of Qiongzhou Island, pondered for a while, and said, "Mingjin withdrew the troops! The whole army retreated!"

He knew the strength of the Song army on the island. The Song army was ambushed at present. He had 30,000 soldiers and 50,000 pirates under his command, but more than 80,000 people, and it was unlikely that he would forcibly attack the island. Moreover, the combat power of those pirates was far from comparable to that of their Yuan soldiers. Although Ali Hague ordered him to quickly capture Qiongzhou, he also knew that things could not be done and could only find another opportunity.

War is not as simple as fighting in the world. If the Song army had already set its sights on, it would be a death sentence when they rushed forward.

However, before the sound of gold was heard, behind their fleet, endless fire suddenly surged into the sky, illuminating the night.

Dozens of large ships lined up horizontally, and fire filled the front, rushing towards the Yuan army and behind the pirate ship formation.

Tuoheti suddenly turned around and saw the fire, his face looked a little cold, "There are such masters in the Song army who cut off our retreat before the battle."

Murong Chuan looked more anxious than him, "What should we do?"

These tens of thousands of pirates were his last family and his reliance on his turnaround. If it was gone, then Murong Chuan would have no hope in his life.

Tuoheti said gloomyly: "There are only more than 80,000 Song troops in Qiongzhou, and the rest are all restrained by the rioters. I see that they cut off the ship formation of our army's retreat, and the soldiers on the ship should be no less than 20,000. They will not be able to go out in full swing. I expect that even if there are ambushes on the shore, the maximum number of troops will be only 50,000." He slapped the bow railing with both hands, "Beat the drum to advance, the whole army will land on the island, and fight the Song army with decisive battle!"

Murong Chuan stared at the eyes and said anxiously: "Marson, the Song army is ambushing, are we still going to the island?"

Tuoheti said: "The Song army is weak. Even if there is an ambush, our army has a great chance of winning by 80,000 or 50,000! When we land on the island, you will lead your 50,000 soldiers to attack the Song army formation. I will lead the soldiers under my command to resist these Song army who are trying to cut off our retreat. Just wait for our Dayuan Iron Cavalry to launch its formation, those Song army will not be able to withstand the charge of our iron cavalry. When the road is broken, the Song army will be destroyed. Our army can attack and retreat and defend, and we will have a complete grasp of the opportunity to win!"

When Murong Chuan heard this, he felt a little bitter in his heart.

He was not a fool, he knew that Tuoheti asked him to lead people to the island to attack the Song army, and wanted his people to be targets.

However, if he wanted to enter the Yuan Dynasty, he would have to rely on Ali Hague. Even though he knew he was being used, what would he do?

He turned around and shouted to the pirate leaders who were waiting for the orders behind him: "You will lead your brothers to the island and repel the Song army. Wealth is expected!"

For these pirates, the biggest temptation is money, status and beauty.

When they heard that wealth was expected, the desires of these pirates were seduced, and their eyes were filled with ruthlessness and they all took their orders.

They don’t care whether the Song army has any ambush. For them, even if their brothers are dead, it is worth it to be able to win their wealth and glory. But they are smarter and think that they will not be able to rush forward with their brothers after waiting.

Soon, nearly a thousand pirate warships of various types of Yuan army and pirates sailed towards the Qiongzhou coast.

The 20,000 Qiongzhou Army that was pressed up from behind was blocked by the Yuan army's warships, and it could not affect the warships ahead for a while.
