Not to mention that the detachment of the Southeast Fleet, the Guangdong Far Sea Fleet, dispatched to take Zhu Youlang's rebels lightly in Guangzhou, shocked by their strength, Chen Minwu, the governor of Liangguang, kept complimenting the fleet commander Siresma, and this foreigner who came to China to help the war did not modestly say: "This kind of battle is simply not worth mentioning, we used to have a cannon battle with the Hongmao battleship formation, and the two shells collided in the air, smashed and scattered in all directions, and it was still called fierce!" ”

Yan Le also said very eloquently: "I didn't even do anything, they fell!" ”

This battle was really easy to win and borrow fire, Shi Daxuan (that is, Shi Lang's father) said to Yan Le in private: "The Ming army is really not good, I thought the new Ming army would be better, no matter the former Ming army and the new Ming army have the same virtue, no wonder the Tatars dared to rush the Ming army with 300 horsemen, and they won the battle!" ”

In this battle, the rebels lost more than 2,000 dead and wounded on the upper and lower nine roads, and more than 1,000 in the rest of the country, which is the total loss.

And then tens of thousands of people were captured!

This is not a fight, but a mutiny.

The collapse of the formation was so fast that the surrendered Southeast Army was too busy, and there were two Southeast Army soldiers who drove hundreds of rebel prisoners who went to the equipment to the prisoner of war camp, and there was no need to be afraid of them escaping and resisting, some prisoners of war were cheeky to ask the Southeast Army for cigarettes, everyone is a comrade!

No, it was and will be!

I don't feel ashamed to be a prisoner at all, but they also have the virtue of a soldier.

How many casualties did the Southeastern Army have?

Tens of thousands of people were dispatched, but only 13 were killed and more than 100 were wounded.

The one-sided battle, the victory is not martial, everyone feels like an outing, Yan Le smiled lightly: "You think it is us who wins!" Are they afraid of us?! ”

"If those captives become our comrades-in-arms, I dare say, you will find that their bravery makes you suspect that they are a different person!" Yan Le pointed out.

"It's true, it's true!" Shi Daxuan muttered, understanding what Yan Le was referring to, the Southeast Army is shrouded in the aura of a leader, and the morale of the army has increased by fifty percent, and the morale of the enemy army has dropped by fifty percent!

"The leader is here, it's really a blessing for my generation of martial artists!" Shi Daxuan said with his hand.

The Southeast Fleet has been stationed in Baietan, in order to deter the hostile and cheer up the enemy, and these days, their Marine Corps has been cooperating with Chen Minwu, the governor of Liangguang, who has actively reorganized the army, and reorganized the Xinming army in Guangdong with the officers of the Marine Corps of the Southeast Army as the officer skeleton.

Including the appointment of Marine Corps officers as officers of the Xinming Army in Guangdong, and the readjustment of some officers of the Xinming Army, the steps are quite large.

In times of crisis, the Governors had military powers, including the right to form new armies, adjust officers, and send troops, but these powers were too sensitive for the Governors to use with great care.

For example, you can change some officers in the army, but if you make surprise appointments and make large-scale changes to officers, you will be questioned.

The commander of the new army is Yan Le, which is also where Chen Minwu's confidence lies in daring to make a move, Yan Le is the nephew of the leader, the Yan clan, and others will never suspect that Chen Minwu has any bad intentions.

Generally, he will issue orders to Yan Le, and Yan Le will deploy and execute them, as long as Chen Minwu does not interfere with the army more, then Yan Le will succeed in the future, and Chen Minwu's credit will still account for the first place.

Yan Le got the opportunity and cherished it very much, he only slept for a few hours every day, and the various armies ran around, inspected the troops, and called the officers and soldiers to talk, and he was busy non-stop.

Well...... He issued a military order to capture 3,000 of the captured soldiers, and after rectification and transformation, they rejoined the Xinming army in Guangdong!

Such a rapid change that Admiral Siresma couldn't even see it, and said disapprovingly: "Are you guys playing house?" Come as you want, go as you want! ”

This high-ranking official actually understands the concept of "this family"! He said viciously: "For the rebels, they should be hanged and let them serve hard labor, the leader is good for everything, it is too merciful, let them serve overseas, do not increase the punishment, that's all." Your Lieutenant General Yan is stronger, and you actually pardoned their crimes and let them put on our military uniforms again, so you are not afraid that they will rebel! ”

Siresma was not a good fellow, he was in the slave business before joining the Southeastern Navy, he had been selling Uncle Black to the Americas for several years, driving a slave ship, treating human life like a mustard, and the slaves who offended him were thrown into the sea cleanly.

If you give him the decision this time, I'm afraid that I will have to kill him.

In fact, few white-skinned people who joined the Southeast Army in the early days were good, they were all slave owners, pirates, robbers, and villains, and they joined the Southeast Army like a fish in water, and there were no second thoughts, because the essence of the Southeast Army was pirates, as long as the environment changed, the regular army would immediately return to its own post and do a big job!

"Forgive their crimes, where did I get such a big right, Admiral West, don't be!" Yan Le shouted, and he followed Governor Chen Minwu to address Siresma.

"Zang, I'm General Sires, not surnamed Xi!" Siresma was dissatisfied.

"They said that they were coerced in the past, and they were not willing to serve the rebels, and they also said that they would defeat Zhu Youlang, sir, which shows their attitude, and they joined the vanguard army, and they all became small soldiers, killed the enemy in front of the battle, and atoned for their crimes!" Shi Daxuan tried to convince Siresma: "We should give them a chance, so that we can save our costs." ”

Yan Le said to Shi Daxuan in Hokkien dialect: "This red-haired fan is straight-headed and straight-headed, and he can't understand our broad and profound Chinese culture!" ”

Not understanding what they were saying, but knowing that there would be no good words, Siresma shouted, "Please speak Chinese!" ”

So Shi Daxuan patiently said to Siresma: "This is the East - according to the rules of the East, now we have won, you know, sir, we have won - it is the winner takes all, they will not fight back, you just wait for their performance!" ”

……

A group of their senior officers enjoyed the air-conditioning in the water-cooled air-conditioned room of the Governor's Palace, while eating watermelons that had been calmed by the well.

They just finished eating, Chen Minwu accompanied, this guy will be an official, serving the former Liangguang Governor Xiong Daru son to his father, and now for the Southeast Army, these Qiu Ba, they are also serving home, and they do not hesitate to let the Governor's Mansion out as the headquarters of the Southeast Army, and serve them with good food and drink.

As for the Southeast Army stationed in Guangzhou, Governor Chen sent a song and dance troupe to the labor army and sent them fat pigs, chickens, geese, ducks and fruits, and everyone said that he was good.

For this kind of person, you can despise them as a person, but you have to admit that they do have their ability, and they can do everything and dance with long sleeves.

Just as he was relaxing, a naval officer broke in and reported: "Riding an urgent report, the Humen Fort has found a large number of masts rising on the sea!" ”

The Humen Fort, set up in Humen Town, Dongguan County, guards the mouth of the Pearl River and is the first line of resistance to overseas defense.

"What?!" Everyone was stunned, and Shi Daxuan asked anxiously: "Can you identify where the other party's fleet is?" ”

"There is a mist on the sea, it is difficult to spot!" The officer said.

Siresma ordered: "Order the fleet there at White Goose Pond to prepare for sailing!" ”

"Let's go!" In the blink of an eye, the naval officers in the room were gone.

When Siresma and the others rushed back to Baietan, it took an hour to set sail one after another, and immediately burst into cheers, which shook both sides of the Pearl River.

The alarm was lifted, and it was the fleet led by the leader who arrived!

He came across the sea and returned to the mainland!
