In the end, Wu Daofu and his six warships only had time to leave behind the three pirate warships that escaped at the end, and by the time Hongtang's other warships finished cleaning up the battlefield and kept up with Wu Daofu and them again, Huashan Hidaka and their warships had already sailed into the dock of Amami Oshima.

Moreover, while fleeing, Kayama Hisataka did not forget the broken wrist of the strong man, and ordered the sinking of several Japanese ships with serious losses as an interception of the battle of attacking the island that Hongtang would inevitably come after the failure of this naval battle.

With these wrecks blocking the outer perimeter of the pier in the shallow waters, it was not so easy for the Hongtang warship to easily approach Amami Oshima. Even if Hongtang sent water ghosts to the sea to speed up the cleaning of the waterway, this could not be done in a time or two, and they could also buy two days to strengthen the fortifications against Amami Oshima.

With the defeat of the Japanese fleet at sea, it means that they are no longer capable of fighting with Hongtang on the sea, so they can only huddle on Amami Oshima Island and wait for rescue from the Satsuma headquarters.

Wu Daofu and they also suffered a lot of losses, although this battle wiped out more than half of the warships of the Japanese fleet, but in fact, the main force of the Japanese left the battlefield at the last moment, plus the pirates who later escaped and ascended to heaven and returned to the team, there should still be nearly 2,000 soldiers on Amami Oshima, as well as more than 30 sea ships.

On the Hongtang side, although the king of the Ryukyus asked for the assistance of more than 30 fishing boats to intercept the self-detonating warships of the Japanese people, but in the battle, there were also four Hongtang warships that were sunk by the Japanese, and seven warships were seriously damaged.

At the same time, the 4,000 members of Hongtang killed more than 600 people and seriously injured more than 300 people in this battle, losing almost 1/4 of their manpower, and Wu Daofu and them were also very injured.

After all, Wu Daofu and they will soon attack the island again, thinking that there are nearly 2,000 Japanese and pirates on the island in front of them, and how many people will lose in the end of 3,000 people, Wu Daofu and they still don't know.

This is also the reason why Wu Daofu has always been reluctant to take over the battle.

But at this time, after all, it was a big victory, facing an opponent with a similar number of people, but the number of warships was more than twice that of their own, Wu Daofu and their battle could be regarded as quite beautiful, even if they returned Li Tianyang to them, they couldn't find anything wrong.

Of course, Hong lost a lot, but correspondingly, after their victory, the gains were also indispensable, more than 30 sea-going ships that could not break free also fell into the hands of Hongtang after the Hongtang team members cleared the battlefield. Although most of these ships do not meet the criteria for Hongtang's selection of warships, there are still seven or eight warships that have been transformed, which can not only make up for the warships lost in today's World War, but also expand the strength of Hongtang's warships.

There were more than 700 pirates who finally saw that there was no hope of escaping, and finally under the desire to survive, they put down their weapons and surrendered to Hongtang; However, there are relatively few Japanese people on the side of the Japanese people, only more than a hundred Japanese people who have not had time to escape from the battlefield, or who have been killed by injuries, even if they have become prisoners of Hongtang at this time, but most of them are still quite tough, raising their heads and looking at the Hongtang team members without falling behind, and muttering all kinds of Japanese language in their mouths, which does not sound like a good word, not as tame as the pirates.

As for the Japanese and pirates who died in battle, it was more than 1,000 people, because many corpses fell into the sea, and Wu Daofu and the others only got 1,189 people from the decks of each warship. In the end, these corpses, because they were still in a state of battle, would not land for a while, except for the corpses of the Hongtang team members, the other corpses were finally thrown directly into the sea by Wu Daofu's order, but they were cheaper The sea fish and whale sharks that were attracted by the smell of blood in the sea made them feast.

In the end, before dark, Wu Daofu and the others finally sorted out the results of this battle, and spent the night in front of the gate of Amami Oshima with a lot of gains.

Shang Zhong can be regarded as extremely excited, although he has a strong fantasy about Hong Tang, but after all, Hong Tang is just a group of pirates in their opinion, although they defeated the evil star of Kayama Hidaka last time, but in fact, Shang Zhong is still very worried in their hearts, and they have always been worried that this battle will be lost.

Until the victory of this naval battle, it basically means that their Ryukyuan people are only one step away from the control of the Shimazu family. At this time, Shang Zhong was thinking about passing the news back, so that the king of the Ryukyus could prepare early, and as soon as the war on Amami Oshima was over, they could also attack the main island of Ryukyu at the same time, and wipe out the hundreds of people that the Shimazu family had planted on the main island of the Ryukyus.

As for the time of this battle, the Ryukyuan fishing boats, which helped Hongtang a lot, were basically lost, and these people who operated the boats were just a group of fishermen, dealing with bandits such as Japanese samurai and pirates, so they were naturally not opponents. Being able to run away without turning around in the fierce battlefield and completing the task well is already considered a heroic example of these fishermen.

But in the face of the sharp weapons used by the Japanese to deal with Hongtang, often these fishermen are too obsessed with entanglement with each other, but forget the matters ordered by Wu Daofu, the Japanese and pirates can not get close to the Hongtang warship, and they have not been able to get rid of the entanglement of the Ryukyu fishermen, and finally ruthlessly blew up the sea boat, and sent these fishermen to the west on the spot.

For the death of these fishermen, Shang Zhong's feelings in his heart are not even comparable to Wu Daofu and them, I am afraid that Shang Zhong has long forgotten them in his heart, if he didn't want to find Wu Daofu to discuss the news of returning King Shangning, he may not have thought of mentioning these people to Wu Daofu.

"Shang Guard, if you want to go back and report the news, you can go, by the way, express to us the kindness of King Shang Ning for helping us, and we also hope that King Shang Ning can give some compensity to the families of these Ryukyu fishermen who died in battle!" Wu Daofu didn't care about Shang Zhong's request, but when he mentioned these fishermen who came to support, he couldn't help but ask Shang Zhong for a little favor to thank these fishermen for their contributions.

"No problem, my king never treats people who have meritorious service to my royal family!" Shang Zhong seemed to mean something, and confidently agreed.

If it hadn't been for this group of fishermen to intercept the more than a dozen self-exploding ships prepared by the Japanese people, the Hongtang warships in the fierce battle this time might have suffered even greater losses, rather than just a few warships being destroyed. Therefore, Wu Daofu's intention to sympathize with the fisherman was from the bottom of his heart.

This is the fourth watch, right, and I didn't break my promise!!
