At the same time that the Dutch fleet was killing Bengang, most of the Hongtang fleet led by Wu Daofu and Wu Juren, and forty-five warships were also pouring out, killing the Dutch in the Ming Dynasty and waiting for the base camp, Hongcheng Fortress on Magong Island.

Forty-five warships, almost the most powerful warship that Hong Tang can take out in his hands now, and the other warships obtained by the pirates are actually temporarily filled in order to prevent the Dutch from attacking Jilong Harbor again, and the actual combat effectiveness is more than a step worse than these forty-five warships.

And the soldiers carried on it, although there are many recruits who have just passed training, but the recruits who were born as pirates are actually no worse than ordinary soldiers in terms of combat effectiveness, and what they lack is only the run-in for combat cooperation and other aspects. In addition, most of them are veterans who have been in Hongtang for several years, and Hongtang's overall strength is only one line worse than three or four months ago.

The huge team of nearly 4,000 people is almost eighty and a half percent of the strength of the three departments of Hongtang in Jilong Harbor now, in addition to the nearly 600 people who stayed on Hulu Island, the several training camps on the isolated islands on the sea that had just been built were also directly abandoned by Li Tianyang.

As for Jilong Port, it was directly handed over to Wu Jie's special operations battalion and the defense team that had just been formed, and it can be said that this time Li Tianyang and them used all their combat strength to wait for the battle this time.

After Hong Zhengkai and his team proposed the trick of encircling Wei to save Zhao, everyone brainstormed together and judged that if they could uproot the stronghold of the Red Fan Ghost on Penghu, then it was very likely that the Red Fan Ghost would be directly forced to withdraw and return to their original territory.

If this can be achieved, with the relative weakness of the Franc machine people in the Ming Sea and their more trade-oriented nature, then at least in the next five years, Hongtang will be able to challenge the dominance of the entire South China Sea.

As for the bandits who took the opportunity to harass Huludao, whether it was in the eyes of several high-level Hong Tang, or in the eyes of the members of the team under the command of Li Tianyang, they were just a group of clowns who jumped off the beam, although it would bring some trouble to Hong Tang in the short term, but as long as Hong Tang survived the battle with the red ghosts, it was just a simple matter to calm down these harassment attacks between the backhands.

In comparison, the distance between the Dutch stronghold and Bengang is much shorter than the distance between Jilong Harbor and Hongcheng Fortress. However, compared with the last two, the time when the Hongtang battleship arrived at Hongcheng Fortress was not much different from the time when the Dutch arrived at Bengang Pier.

The reason for this is that the Dutch were trapped by the two iron cables blocking the road outside Bengang Creek and delayed their efforts for half a day, but it also showed Hong Tang's strong ability to act.

From the decision to attack Hongcheng Fortress to the final dispatch of most of Hongtang's troops, the delay did not exceed two hours, and most of these two hours were to wait for the soldiers returning from training on the isolated islands.

At the same time, in order to speed up the pace, the Hongtang battleship set off overnight on the night of the mobilization and killed the side of Magong Island. The Dutch, on the other hand, although they also got up early in the morning to attack Bengang, still rested in the fortress for the night before setting out.

Therefore, when the Dutch appeared on the periphery of Bengang Wharf, Wu Daofu and their Hongtang warships also appeared in the waters of Hongcheng Fortress at the same time.

Compared to the fact that the people of Bengang and everyone at the top were mentally prepared, the Dutch who suddenly found a large fleet of densely packed outside the fortress seemed a little panicked.

"Oooo Oooo ”

A bell rang at the fortress, and many of the Dutch, who were still ignorant, did not even know what was going on.

At this time, the deputy of the Dutch fleet, Deputy Commander Lei Johnson, was about to have dinner in the fortress, when he was disturbed by the soldiers who suddenly broke in, and when he hurriedly walked up to the observation gate of the fortress to lookout, Hongtang's warship had already approached the distance of only three miles in front of the fortress.

"Order all the sailors to assemble and pull out all the guns on the battery." Although he was surprised by the number of enemy ships, Lei Yuesheng, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was not alarmed, and still showed great composure in front of the soldiers: "Organize the craftsmen and slaves again, as our reserves, ready to go to the battlefield at any time!" ”

"By the way, go down and tell these slaves that as long as they work hard and make meritorious service this time, then after the war is over, I, in the name of the commander, will give freedom to the slaves who have made meritorious contributions!" However, Lei Yosheng's next move still revealed a little bit of his unoptimistic attitude towards the war.

"Yes!" The adjutant beside him had to give the order to leave, leaving Lei Yousheng alone to stand at the lookout, silently watching the approaching Hongtang fleet.

At the same time, in Bengang, Yumo was standing at home with Li Tianyang in Bengang, persuading Mrs. Wu and Sanniang to take refuge in the underground fortifications: "Grandmother, mother, this time a red ghost came to provoke us in Bengang, in order to avoid being accidentally injured by the artillery fire of the red ghost, please take refuge in a safe place!" Yumo didn't have the domineering and demeanor when she was outside, and when she persuaded Mrs. Wu and them at this time, she looked like a good little daughter-in-law.

"What about you, little girl, will you go with us to avoid the limelight?" Although Old Madam Wu was old, when she heard Yumo's blunt words, she didn't have the panic of ordinary women at all, but calmly asked about Yumo's arrangement.

Although Sanniang did not speak, she looked at Yumo with concern while pulling Li Tianyang's two younger sisters, and was also very worried about Yumo's safety.

"Grandmother, don't worry, after I organize the villagers to take refuge, I will go to meet you and be your companion!" Yumo heard the old lady's concerned tone and eyes, and her heart warmed, but her responsibilities were there, although she was a woman, she couldn't escape for the battle under Li Tianyang's constant nurturing, she also had to cheer for the soldiers on the front line, and prepare the necessary materials and manpower for them.

"God raise this damn little bastard, when a man's daughter-in-law is in danger, he doesn't see him, and there is no figure all day long, like something!" After hearing Yumo's words, Mrs. Wu no longer persuaded her, and those who believed in Buddhism were originally soft-hearted, thinking that thousands of villagers in Bengang were carrying the burden of their granddaughter-in-law, and it was very sad to kill or injure anyone.

"Grandmother! They're coming back with someone to kill them, so it won't be long before we see them come back and help us get rid of these bad guys! As Li Tianyang's daughter-in-law and follower, Yumo is a staunch supporter of Li Tianyang, even if she sheds blood and tears for him, she will move forward.

"Alas, you guys, you guys, you have a good life, but you like this kind of life........." Mrs. Wu sighed, she was content and happy, she was actually very unaccustomed to the days when her son Li De and grandson Li Tianyang had been working outside, but many times I wanted to say that I saw the price paid by my son and grandson to get to this point, and finally held back the words.

After settling the old lady and Sanniang, Yumo walked out of the house, put on a calm but exuding a faint majesty again, and led people towards the direction of Bengang Wharf.
