Liu Guoxuan only said that Shi Lang sent people to reinforce him, and he couldn't help but feel anxious, if there were not enough sailors on the Guangzhou and other ships, the speed of destroying the enemy ships in the port would inevitably be even slower. Just now, he led the crews of the Ji'an, Han Shizhong and other ships to land, and these ships stopped firing at this time due to lack of manpower.

And when he turned his head to look under the fort, he was stunned for a moment—he saw that what was attacking from the west was hundreds of people dressed in the green battalion, and there was a huge "Li" character on the banner.

Plum? Could it be Li Dechun? Liu Guoxuan was very surprised, didn't he hear that Li Dechun wanted to do it anyway?

The dense sound of guns above his head made him have no time to think about it, it would be nice to have someone to help him in the battle anyway. He shouted, "Reinforcements have arrived, rush hard!" ”

A shout immediately rang out all around him in response, "Kill!" ”

The Qing army on the fort was originally shocked by the Ming army's fearless momentum of death, and at this time they heard that the enemy still had reinforcements, and they no longer had the courage to resist stubbornly, so they threw away their weapons and rushed towards the direction of the city ladder.

The pressure on Liu Guoxuan's side was instantly relieved, and he hurriedly took the opportunity to muster up his strength, alternating his arms up and down dozens of times, and jumped into the turret from a cannon firing port.

As more than a dozen other Ming soldiers climbed onto the fort, Liu Guoxuan gathered everyone in a corner of the fort and raised their guns to fire a volley at the Qing army, which was already in disarray.

Although there were nearly 200 captives on the fort, the morale became extremely low under the strong attack of the Ming army, and no one dared to come forward to fight with Liu Guoxuan and them.

When the Ming army completely controlled the fort, Liu Guoxuan roughly counted the number of people, and couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart, the more than 320 soldiers he brought were only more than 130 people left at this time, and even his adjutant was hit in the abdomen by the firecracker, and he was already angry.

His eyes were cracked, he turned around angrily, and shouted at the prisoners, "Throw me off the fort!" He waved his hand at the heavy artillery around him, "the cannon, let me aim at the pirate ship in the harbor and bombard it fiercely!" ”

"Yes!"

In a moment, another group of "Qing soldiers" rushed up from the ladder to the city. Liu Guoxuan's troops were busy holding flint guns, preparing to form a formation to meet the enemy, but they saw the "Tartar officer" headed by him waving a piece of white cloth and shouting loudly: "My own people, don't make a gun!" The last general commanded the Zichuan militia regiment, Xie Qian. ”

Rebel? Liu Guoxuan was overjoyed, made people put away the fire, stepped forward and bowed his hand to Xie Qian, "Liu Guoxuan is in the water division left." Thank you so much for the general's help, otherwise my brothers will all be broken on this fort......"

"The last general has seen General Liu." Xie Qian gave a salute, "The general doesn't need to say thank you, if it weren't for the rescue of the sailor, I would have died in Lijin as early as I could." ”

Liu Guoxuan hurriedly supported him, "General Xie has made a great contribution this time!" If you hadn't arrived in time, this fort would have made the sailors return in vain. ”

Xie Qian couldn't stop roaring when he heard that there was an enemy battery three miles away, and pointed there again: "General Liu, there are still Tartar cannons over there, we might as well take them all together!" ”

Liu Guoxuan nodded subconsciously, these two forts on the west bank are enough to protect nearly half of the waters in the port, if the other one can be captured, then the sailor can completely avoid the northernmost fort and destroy more than eighty percent of the enemy ships in Laizhou Port. But then he frowned again and said, "My men have suffered heavy casualties, I'm afraid ......"

Xie Qian seemed to be dissatisfied: "General, this is looking down on our righteous army? I, the five hundred Zichuan masters, regard the thieves as grass mustard ears! ”

Liu Guoxuan shook his head slightly, he knew what the combat effectiveness of the righteous army was, although Xie Qian's horses were well equipped, and even many of them were wearing cotton armor, but their command, training, morale, etc. could not be counted on. The sailors could continue to storm the enemy's batteries with nearly sixty percent of their casualties, and the rebels would surely retreat with a maximum of 100 casualties.

"Hey!" Seeing that he was still hesitating, Xie Qian immediately turned around and beckoned to the people of his department, "I, Xie someone, took this fort today and dedicated it to the general!" ”

Liu Guoxuan saw that he insisted on going and was about to stop him, but suddenly saw the braid on the back of his head, and couldn't help but light up in his eyes, "General Xie, slow down," he looked at the rebels who were all dressed in Qing army uniforms, and couldn't help but smile, "I have a plan, or I can take that fort." ”

After he explained Xie Qian carefully, he raised his arms at the sailor soldiers, "Who still has the strength to follow me to attack the thief fort?!" ”

"Me!"

"I'll go!"

"I haven't killed enough of that, I'll go!"

Immediately, all 130 people, including the wounded soldiers, gathered together.

"Good! is worthy of being the son of my Daming Water Master! ”

Liu Guoxuan nodded excitedly, asked the officer to pick out the wounded and physically exhausted soldiers to stay, and took the rest of the more than 80 people to follow behind Xie Qian's righteous army from afar, and ran towards another fort on the west bank together.

When everyone arrived at the fort a mile away, Xie Qian first sent two men who knew how to come to the Qing army to "connect", and he led the righteous army to line up and hold high the pennant, swaggering towards the fort.

When the officers on the fort saw that the sound of the fort on the south side had suddenly weakened, and then they began to fire at their own warships in the harbor, they knew in their hearts that they were not good.

Not long after, two messengers rushed to the bottom of the fort, and eagerly reported that the fort in the depths of the port had been captured by the Ming army, and that they were under the command of Li Dechun and Master Li, and they had been ordered by the garrison to come for reinforcements.

The Jianyu officer was worried that the Ming army was coming to storm his battery, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that reinforcements were coming. When Xie Qian and his troops arrived, he personally went down to the fort to greet him, but saw that "Master Li" did not talk to him, but went straight to the city ladder with the guards.

His heart jumped, and he was about to shout and ask, but he was stopped by "Master Li's" subordinates with knives.

Only then did the captives on the fort react and hurriedly fell down the gate, and the rebels immediately dispersed the Qing troops near the ladder to the city. Then everyone shouted, "30,000 Ming troops have landed!" "Zheng Zhilong has descended!" And so on, each of them raised his sword and struck it up from the ladder of the city.

……

Shi Lang looked at the battle situation on the shore with a stern face, but suddenly saw the nearest fort raise the Ming army flag, and the heavy artillery on it began to bombard the Jianyu warships in the port.

He was immediately overjoyed, and said loudly to the adjutant: "Order, the Zhangzhou is in front, all the warships move one nautical mile to the north-west, and concentrate on the enemy ships on the west side!" ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, in addition to the Ji'an, more than 20 Ming warships lined up on the west bank of Laizhou Port, and naval guns of large and small calibers poured their anger on the Jianyu warships that were trying to get out of the trap at the fastest speed.

Hong Xu's side had just barely carved out a passage from the moored boats, but he was suddenly attacked from front to back. The Qing soldiers who were clearing the channel were screaming and shaking the sky by the artillery fire, and they jumped into the sea one after another to take refuge. Hong Xu was also set up on a centipede clipper by several guards and desperately fled to the north side.
