As Ruan Jin waved the flag on the boat, he and the three remaining warships on his side turned around in unison. Two of the sentry ships were close to the Jianyu warships that had come to intercept Ruan Jin, and they fired iron hooks and chains to close the distance between the two ships, and quickly set up several gangplanks.

Then an officer shouted, and the officers and men of the Zhejiang army immediately drew their knives and climbed onto the gangplank and rushed to the enemy ship.

Ruan Jin and another small bow boat avoided the Jianyu boat in front and rushed straight towards the tallest Niu Bin.

Niu Bin didn't expect that Ruan Jin would suddenly turn around and fight desperately, and seeing that the torches on his ship had been lit and ready to die at any time, he hurriedly ordered to avoid, and the artillery fire also eased.

It's just that Ruan Jin is heading northwest at this time, but there is some headwind, and the speed can't be raised at all.

By the time he was only about 200 paces away from the enemy ships, Niu Bin's fleet had gathered into two formations and separated. Ruan Jin didn't have time to turn around, and rushed into the gap between the two groups of enemy ships.

For a time, the guns were great, and the Qing warships kept adjusting their direction, keeping the heavy guns on the bow always pointing at the two warships that were caught in the trap.

In just a moment, Ruan Jin was already hit by four cannons when he took the boat. Luckily, most of the shells hit the side panels of the ship, and he turned the rudder desperately, hoping to stick to an enemy ship and set it on fire before it was sunk.

But the next moment, he felt a light in his hand, and the hull of the ship immediately deviated uncontrollably to the right. An officer with a bloody face stumbled over and said urgently: "General, the rudder has been shot ......"

Ruan Jin laughed miserably, let out a light breath and threw away the rudder, and then sat down on the ground, the rumbling cannon in his ears seemed to have gradually faded away.

He raised his hand and handed the saber to the officer, and said in a hoarse voice: "When Jianyu is extremely lucky, it will be difficult for me to go against the will of heaven."

"Ahh

"General......

The officer burst into tears, but his hand holding the knife trembled.

"Lu Si'er, do it!"

Nalu Si closed his eyes and clenched the knife, and just tried to lift it halfway, but suddenly opened his eyes again, and said suspiciously: "General, why do I think this cannon is weak?" ”

"It must be a thief who wants to jump to the gang and take the ship!" Ruan Jin turned over and stood up, shouting, "The herald ignites the ship!" Fast! ”

"Yes!" Lu Si hurriedly rushed out of the helm cabin, but he was stunned when he raised his eyes, and immediately retreated, and said with joy, "General, the enemy ship has retreated!" ”

"What?" Ruan Jin ran up to the deck in a few steps and looked up, and saw nearly thirty Qing warships full of sails, barely gathering into a triangular formation, desperately turning to the northwest side.

The enemy ships are seizing the upper hand. He was well versed in water warfare, and immediately had a judgment that there must be some movement in the north.

He climbed up to the lookout in three or two, and saw a forest of tall masts on the sea on the northeast side, with strange white cloth sails hanging on them, led by a few warships that looked like thousands of materials.

"Could it be the Fujian Marine?" Thinking of this, he hurriedly turned to Lu Sidao, "Go and warn the people from Fujian, the main force of Jianyu is nearby, you must not be entangled here!" ”

Naval battles in this era were usually extremely time-consuming, especially in the East. Because the Junk ship is equipped with few guns, but the hull has a watertight cabin structure that is difficult to sink, any battle has to be fought for a whole day, and in the end it is often necessary to rely on arson or gang jumping to end the battle.

Last night, 200 warships under Kaha shelled Nguyen Jin's 20 boats for a long time, and finally allowed him to escape 15 boats, which can be seen.
