The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 208 The Eastern Armada!
It was obviously a not very fierce battle, but Wang Fuchen wrote that Zhao Zilong entered and exited Changbanpo seven times and seven times.

In the end, Wang Fuchen also said that although he retreated to Chengdu, he also severely damaged the main force of the Ming thieves.

Ming thief can't stay in Chongqing any longer and wants to run away!
Ask the imperial court to send troops to pursue it!

……

Just after the new year, Qiongzhou Prefecture still has a strong festive atmosphere.

Fu Haishan was lying on the deck of the boat, lazily enjoying the sun.

Every winter is the best climate in Qiongzhou!
There is no summer heat and typhoons, and the climate is relatively cool.

The breeze blows, causing faint ripples on the sea.

The fish picked out of the water, and the fish scales glowed with a faint luster in the sun, which was very beautiful.

Fu Haishan was lying on the deck, thinking about something.

The sea fish in this season is still very good. Remove the scales and internal organs, fry with a little lard until golden on both sides, then add water and simmer slowly.

The seasoning doesn't need to be too complicated, just add a little salt to remove the fishy smell from the onion and ginger.

Just like this, the unique deliciousness of sea fish is enough to grab people's taste buds.

At that time, it will be paired with some turbid wine, tsk tsk, so happy!

Fu Haishan was the chief whistler of the Qiongzhou Naval Battalion of the Qing Army, and he was in charge of many brothers.

Daily searches of ships traveling to and from Qiongzhou, the oil and water are rich, enough for him to eat!

In terms of eating, Fu Shanhai never treats himself badly.

"Mr. Whistle!"

"Come and see what's over there?"

Just when Fu Haishan was thinking about whether he should go to Xiao Taohong to relax and vent his anger tonight, his subordinate Xiao Wu asked eagerly.

Fu Haishan got up from the deck, straightened his coat, squinted his eyes and looked towards the end of the water sky.

Several small black dots suddenly jumped out from the end of the water antenna!
The experienced Fu Haishan could tell at a glance that it was a boat!

"Hey, come to work!"

"Brothers, cheer up and come to work. There are several big boats, and it must be a big fish!"

"This wave is enough, I invite the brothers to drink!"

"..."

Amidst Fu Haishan's yelling, the officers and soldiers of the Qiongzhou Navy of the Qing Army picked up their food.

Prepare to knock out enough oil and water after those big ships approach!

All eyes focused on the end of the water antenna, full of greed and desire.

However, gradually as time passed, Fu Shanhai's face began to change.

There were only one or two small black spots at first!

Each small black dot represents a boat.

One, two, three, four...

The more boats, the more excited Fu Haishan is, because that means more oil and water!
Only gradually, the expression on Fu Haishan's face couldn't hold back anymore!

Ten, fifteen, twenty, thirty, fifty, one hundred...

Gradually, the sea was almost covered by that unimaginably huge fleet!

Hundreds of giant warships came across the sea. The coercion has never been faced before, and it will never be imagined!

Now Fu Haishan is slumped on the deck, his face ashen.

Compared with the tiny bird boat under his feet and those hundreds of giant warships, the gap is really too big.

"Sea... the pirates are coming!"

Fu Haishan exclaimed subconsciously, but his throat was extremely dry.

My heart is full of fear!
The next moment, a warning beacon was lit on the little bird boat.

In a short while, the alarm sounded throughout the port!
……

Zhu Hongyu stood on the top deck of Zheng Chenggong's ship, and Zheng Chenggong was slightly behind him by half a body.

Holding a telescope in his hand, he looked at the Qiongzhou port in the distance.

Looking at the smoke rising from the port of Qiongzhou and the sound of sirens, the expression on his face did not change much.

This time, the Ming army came across the sea with more than 500 ships.

Most of them are sailing battleships or armed merchant ships. Such a force is placed in the entire East Asia or Southeast Asia, and that is the Eastern Armada.

Although the Qing army also had a navy in Qiongzhou, the Qing court did not attach much importance to the Qiongzhou navy.

Not to mention comparing it with the Yangtze River navy that the Qing court regarded as life, even compared with the Qing court's offshore navy in Bohai Sea, East China Sea and other places, it is not worth mentioning.

Zhu Hongyu put down the binoculars, turned around and said to Zheng Chenggong.

"Troublesome old Taishan personally command this naval battle!"

"If you have self-knowledge, do a good job of rewarding meritorious deeds after the war, and don't let the laymen command the experts!"

Zhu Hongyu still has a little research on land warfare, and with the experience he has accumulated since the recovery of the Liberation Army, he is quite handy in command.

But when it comes to sea battles, Zhu Hongyu really can't!

Especially now that it is still the era of sailing battleships, Zhu Hongyu really doesn't understand at all how to judge the wind direction, seize the wind, and how to arrange the fleet formation.

For naval battles, the only thing he knows is the truth of fire coverage!

So, just leave the professional work to a professional person, so that he won't be ashamed of coming out.

Hearing this, Zheng Chenggong nodded slightly and said.

"The old minister takes orders!"

Zheng Chenggong began to line up his troops, using semaphore to command the fleet to adjust its deployment and prepare for battle.

With a faint smile on Zhu Hongyu's face, he quietly watched Zheng Chenggong direct the battle, silently remembering the relevant instructions and semaphore in his heart, and absorbing the experience of naval battles.

……

On the other side, the capital city of Qiongzhou Prefecture is now in chaos.

The news of the pirate attack spread into Qiongzhou City!
A feeling of the sky falling hit He Wenwei, the prefect of Qiongzhou of the Qing court, in an instant.

The invading pirates are too powerful. There are more than [-] warships, not to mention a small Qiongzhou Prefecture, even if the entire Qing court's water surface power is combined, they are not opponents.

Just from the size of the fleet, He Wenwei can know that Zheng Chenggong is probably coming in full force this time!

The strength of the Zheng family may not be enough to fight against the Qing army on the mainland, but if they want to attack a small Qiongzhou, Qiongzhou is absolutely vulnerable.

Admiral Jin Shusheng of the Qiongzhou Navy spoke in front of He Wenwei.

"Master He, the pirates are coming, please order, I will take my brothers to fight!"

Jin Shusheng is full of courage.

It's not that he's not afraid of the Ming army's naval fleet, but that he knows he can't hide.

His family members are all on the mainland. If he dares to surrender to the Ming army, his entire family will be implicated!

In order not to implicate his family, Jin Shusheng has one and only one choice, and that is to fight to the death!

It would be best if he could repel the Ming army, even if he couldn't, he had to die on the battlefield for the sake of his family.

He Wenwei saw the determination in Jin Shusheng's eyes, but felt helpless in his heart. Jin Shusheng had no choice, so why didn't he?

If the Ming army really captures Qiongzhou, if he doesn't want to hurt his family, the only way he can go is to die for the country!
"I wish the admiral the best of luck, defeat the pirates, and come back victorious!"

He Wenwei held Jin Shusheng's hand and said sincerely.

Jin Shusheng nodded vigorously and said.

"Don't worry, my lord, the last general will definitely fight to the death with that pirate!"

"My lord, please help the general raise a batch of money and food, and use it to reward the army!"

……

Chapter [-] is finally complete!
