189 Turning Point of War

Spending so much effort and taking such a big risk, just to block Yan Siqi, Zheng Zhilong and others in the inland sea of Jilong Harbor, to be honest, before the plan was successful, it really seemed like a fantasy.

When the Hongmen rebelled, how to treat the companions around him, how to prevent being discovered by Yao Junsheng and the people of the Flying Dragon Gang, and how to ensure that his side would not be separated by others, etc., are all problems full of variables, and the slightest carelessness will lead to a crisis in this group of Hongmen soldiers who are hiding in the Flying Dragon Gang, and the expected effect will not be achieved.

However, it turns out that Li Tianyang is a person favored by God, and this group of Hongmen soldiers who were inserted into the Flying Dragon Gang by Li Tianyang also completed the lurking mission without danger, and gave the Flying Dragon Fleet a fatal blow at a critical moment.

Don't look at the Hongmen at this time, there are only six ships lurking in the Wyvern Gang, but their position is very critical, just in the middle of the Wyvern Gang fleet that is lined up in a line to start the war.

When they received a signal from Chicken Coop Harbor and rebelled on the spot, it meant that the Wyvern Gang's originally end-to-end queue was cut off by it.

In normal times, this is naturally not too big a problem, the sea is vast, and it is almost impossible to really block the connection between the heads and tails of the Wyvern Gang, but at this time, the narrow terrain in the inland sea of Jilong Port is the terrain specially chosen by Hongmen, this is truncated from it, and then if you want to connect, unless you break through the middle to block, it is only possible for the whole army to retreat and withdraw from the inland sea of Jilong Port.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Hongmen fleet who can still persist in fighting on the front line now have this new force that does not seem to be too much, but has a great practical effect, so that the signs of its retreat have taken a turn.

At the same time, the North Battery, which had been pouring artillery fire near the South Battery, but never a single shell hit the North Battery, quietly turned the target to the warships cruising in the sea, but the attack was not on the Hongmen warship, but on the Warships of the Wyvern Gang.

Similarly, Li Tianyang and the others knew that the North Fort would be controlled by Yao Junsheng and others from the beginning, and when Yao Junsheng and them thought they had a plan and deceived the gate of the North Fort and entered the Fort, they were greeted by two hundred Hongmen soldiers in the Fort who were ready to fight and fully armed.

On the spot, Yao Junsheng sat down on the ground, the whole person was frightened alive and fainted, and he didn't even resist, and the rebellion of the group of more than 100 people that Yao Junsheng was entangled with was controlled by the soldiers of the North Fort.

They then fired at the South Fort, misleading Zheng Zhilong and them into believing that one of the front teeth of Jilong Harbor had been pulled out, making him believe that it was possible to attack Chicken Long Harbor, and finally triggering his whole army to attack Chicken Long Harbor.

A series of changes stunned the Flying Dragon Gang, and the most important point was that at this time, Zheng Zhilong and Yan Siqi were struggling with the reinforcements of Hongmen Bengang in the open sea, and they couldn't have the heart to observe the battle in the inland sea, let alone command.

Yang Tiansheng, Chen Xinji and others also followed Yan Siqi and them to the sea, commanding their respective soldiers as the leaders of the Flying Dragon Gang, but they had a good background and rarely had the opportunity to go to sea to fight with others, so they were a little lacking in actual combat ability.

Under the advantages of the other, the sea situation in which the Wyvern Gang had the upper hand gradually stagnated, and the Hongmen fleet gradually stopped its decline and slowly stabilized the battle line.

The north and south forts exerted their strength at the same time, and the eight "Yang Fan-type" warships gradually cleared out more than ten seagoing ships in the open sea, and slowly forced the remaining warships back into the inland sea of Jilong Harbor, sealing the mouth of the cloth bag, which means that the Hongmen fleet successfully closed the door and blocked the existing more than 50 warships of the Feilong Gang in the inland sea of Jilong Harbor.

Time is passing little by little, and it also means that the hope of victory for the Wyverns is losing little by little.

In fact, when the Flying Dragon Gang first started, there was still a great chance that they would be able to hit the Chicken Coop Harbor, and Li Tianyang and the others had actually been mentally prepared for the Chicken Coop Harbor to suffer a certain degree of loss.

But it's a pity that Zheng Zhilong and the others didn't seize this opportunity, and in the end they were entangled in the sea by the Hongmen fleet, and they were not allowed to enter the inland of Jilong Harbor.

Now that most of the Wyvern Gang warships have been entangled by the Hongmen fleet, the artillery fire of the remaining warships has gradually stopped, and the number of shells they carry is not much.

However, the batteries on the two high mountains in the north and south outside the chicken coop harbor, the guns are still fiercely poured into the sea, and the position of the batteries itself is in a high position, and the ground will not shake all the time like the deck of a sea ship, so it has a bonus in shooting accuracy and range.

From time to time, a Wyvern warship was hit by artillery on the north and south batteries, suffered serious damage, and even capsized as a result.

Zheng Zhilong was driven back to the inland sea of Jilong Harbor by the Hongmen "Yang Fan" warship, and looking at the stalemate situation, he even wanted to kill.

They worked hard to buy two hours for this group of warriors in the Inland Sea, and even sacrificed hundreds of Wyvern Gang elites because of it, but in the end, there was no progress at all on the main battlefield side of TM, isn't this shouting that their sacrifice was in vain?

Moreover, Zheng Zhilong keenly felt that he was gradually falling into a quagmire, and it was becoming more and more difficult to break free!

Until now, Hongmen's moves have been revealed, and the moves are all to put people to death, how could Yan Siqi and Zheng Zhilong not notice that the warship that was divided into two sections and the area where the retreat route was blocked, all of this was a sign that their Flying Dragon Gang had stepped into a trap carefully prepared by Hongmen.

"Retreat!" Yan Siqi looked at the stalemate and made suggestions to Zheng Zhilong again.

"Big brother, it's not that we don't want to retreat now, but that the other party won't let us retreat!" Zheng Zhilong raised his head with difficulty and looked at the eldest brother who was giving advice beside him, and at the same time signaled the situation around him: "If you can defeat this group of Hongmen warships at sea, you may be able to buy some time and opportunity to rush out, or even turn defeat into victory!" ”

"............" Yan Siqi also has team experience, so he can naturally see his own embarrassing situation at this time, seeing Zheng Zhilong's insistence on attacking and defending, in his opinion, it is more risky but it is also the most promising countermeasure, at least compared to his own decision, if Zheng Zhilong succeeds, their Jingpu team may still have a chance to rebel!

In the end, Yan Siqi opened his mouth and wanted to persuade one or two more, but looking at the determined and persistent righteous brother around him, he still gave up the idea of continuing to persuade and turned to support Zheng Zhilong's idea!
