Thunder exploded in the sky, and white lightning pierced the sea.

Chen Mu saw a face, the owner of the face had deep sunken eye sockets, towering cheekbones, a dry beard and tired eye circles, and those eyes were also looking at him.

His instinct told him that it was Zeng Yi.

The light flashed away, and the opportunity was fleeting, and there was only darkness when he pulled out his short handcuff and hit it, and Chen Mu didn't know if he had hit it, only that he had led the warship through the huge fleet of the Japanese Invaders, and on the other side, Chen Lan also withdrew from the battle.

As an outstanding sailor on the coast of Fujian and Guangzhou, Chen Lan knows when to challenge and when to evacuate.

The short contact battle made Chen Ling realize that the artillery battle was indeed not advantageous as Chen Mu said, but the fireboat burned over and successfully broke up the formation of the Japanese fleet, took this opportunity to shorten the distance to dozens of steps, jumped to seize a large ship, and then set fire to two lucky ships, and a burst of cannons killed and injured many Japanese sailors, and then borrowed the centipede boat to lead the team to gradually move away when the enemy's left flank overturned the river and the sea.

Of course, proper artillery support is indispensable.

He didn't worry about Chen Mu, the two centipede ships had more than thirty shells in a salvo, plus Xiangshan made those strange things...... Chen Lan knew that as long as he took care of himself, he would not cause trouble to Chen Mu.

Chen Chaojue can see clearly that he is an expert in arson, but if the ship that fights with him can be fought or not, it will definitely burn up anyway, but Chen Mu is different.

The centipede ships passed by the left flank of the Japanese fleet on a rampage, and there was not even a moment of fighting, but the results of the battle were like a plague, as long as the enemy ships that approached the two big centipedes, no matter how big or small, either had broken masts or were unsteered, they all staggered out of formation...... There are at least five or six big ships!

All the people were killed, and the ship was brought back for repairs and could still be used.

That's the real killer, much better than him, the arsonist.

The gang jumping battle made the sea full of corpses, and there were not many corpses in the places where Chen Mu passed, only those unmanned warships gradually drifted away.

It is too easy for the centipede ship to get out of the battle line, they are much faster than the fortune boat, the fortune ship with the strength of the battle can't catch up, and the small clipper that can catch up can't beat it, in fact, no one wants to chase him, Zeng Yi's mentality changed in this naval battle.

When Xin'an County collected the defeated army, Zeng Yiyi did not feel that he had suffered defeat.

Although the losses were greater than those of the official army, he reaped a lot from plundering the entire suburbs of Xin'an and Guangcheng, and those riches were loaded on his ships and taken away, as long as he could return to Nanao and sell them, he would be able to return with a stronger fleet and more Fujian pirates in a year at most.

But this naval battle, which took place at night, was different.

Not counting the four empty white boats, which had lost at least twelve large ships and a few small boats, the key was not in the ships but in the goods that were stolen on board.

If he continues to fight, he will not even be able to recover the cost of this voyage, which is a real defeat for him.

And most of the large ships full of goods he lost were done by those two centipede ships, how could Zeng Yi not hate?

"Command all boats, and if the centipede ship gets closer, stick it up and fight him!" Zeng Yiyi turned his head disdainfully to look at the shallow pit that had been punched out of the mast, "The guns of the officers and soldiers are very crooked!" ”

Chen Mu wanted to know Zeng Yi's evaluation of his gunnery, he had to drive the ship back and sink Zeng Yi's ship!

What do you mean crooked?

Your Chen Ye uses handcuffs, do you understand, you can only play 30 steps of handcuffs on flat ground, not to mention dangling on the sea, if Chen Ye's arm is good, you can try, let you run 50 steps first and kill you!

But Chen Junye didn't know that Zeng San looked down on him, and he was beautiful at this time.

"Pick up a life, Brother Chen, what about your casualties?"

Haikou's fleet ran away after the battle, Chen Mu and Chen Lan were not in such a hurry, as long as the course was right, they didn't care how fast Zeng Yi wanted to run, the lucky boat put down the longboard during the war, and the two Chen gathered at sea.

Chen Mu looked at the lucky boat that belonged to Xiangshan and found it, and saw that Wei Balang was wearing an iron helmet and seemed to be missing arms and legs, so he relieved himself, "My two ships are picking up a life, the naval battle is really dangerous, and the seven brothers of Lao Tzu will be killed with one shot!" ”

Chen Ling frowned, "You just killed seven people?" ”

"Where can I be!"

Chen Luan's face just appeared, and he said, "Casualties are inevitable, and guns come and go......

"I was beaten to death by the gun!" I saw Chen Junye shaking his head in distress, stretching out three fingers together and patting them on the injured palm of the hanging arm, "In the future, this kind of thing will have to be done less, it is too dangerous!" ”

It is said that it is a good thing that friendly forces have fewer casualties, but Chen Lan listened like eating a fly, tilted his head and looked away, "When I go back, Chen will start the book, build a ship, and build a centipede ship!" ”

Not counting the missing fireships and sailors under his command, more than 40 were drowned, hit by cannonballs, and killed in the battle!

What a glorious victory it should have been!

The pirates, who attacked several times the size of the ships and twice the number of troops, suffered at least 200 casualties in exchange for more than 40 casualties, and burned the enemy ships to seize the enemy ships.

In recent years, apart from the joint naval division of Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou along the coast, has anyone fought such a wonderful battle?

No!

Naval warfare is not a land war, it is a hard-fought battle, and it is often the case that whoever has more ships, more artillery, and more soldiers wins. Being able to win with fewer strikes and more at sea is rare in itself.

But he Chen Mu Chen Junye ...... Chen Lan saw that he was distressed because of the nine deaths, and said that it was too dangerous, so he wanted to drown him directly in the sea!

What a man!

With twice the troops, five times the casualties, and less than half of the results, he Chen Chaojue is still complacent?

Disgrace!

Shame!

Chen Mu found that Chen Shoubei's face was a little unsightly, and looked at the torch to the side in surprise, what kind of chemical reaction is this, how can the torch still turn green on his face after a naval battle?

He really felt the danger in his heart, and the centipede boat was fast in order to shuttle through the enemy line unharmed, and the cannonballs were flying by the side of the ship, and now he calmed down and his ears were full of the shrill whistling sound of the cannonballs during the battle, and he didn't want to do this when he was fighting, but he was full of fear after the battle.

If it weren't for the heightened side of the ship to block the shells, a few shots hit the deck and a general flag would have been gone.

Chen Lan didn't want to answer how many casualties he had at all, he looked at the gloomy sky to the south with a shriveled face, and it took a while to adjust his mood, and he let out a long breath and said: "Chase, it will take a day to get to Tuen Mun, as long as he doesn't run elsewhere, there is no need to harass him later, just wait for Tuen Mun to be wiped out." ”

"The guns and guns in the back can't be used, there is not much difference between land and naval battles, let's see where Brother Jingchen intercepts him." Chen Mu also sighed, the casualties in the broadside battle will only be greater, and now he truly realizes that the lives of soldiers in the war are just a number, more or less, people don't have time to sigh at all.

"I don't know how many people I can bring ashore after this battle, let's go, raise the sails and continue to chase!"

A storm awaited them.
