The velvet is extinguished, the brazier is poured, and the people leave the cannons, the rudders, and the sails, and their hands rest on their bellies, so that the family can see! ”

Don't let anyone move! Whoever broke the flowers and fed the fish, the surviving brothers also remembered to dig his family's ancestral grave! ”

In Kinmen, Fujian, Lin Liang, who was transferred from the Penghu General Army to the Kinmen General Army, reprimanded in a deep voice on the fort, and Lan Tingzhen, the staff general of the Fujian Naval and Land Commander's Battalion, gave a sharp order on the ship.

Their orders were actually redundant, including them, whether it was the officers and soldiers on the fort or the officers and men on the nearly 100 warships on the sea, they all looked at the front in a daze, as if their hands and feet were tied, and they did not dare to make any big moves.

The winter was cold, in the eyes of Lin Liang and Lan Tingzhen, as well as thousands of Qing soldiers, even the sun was gone, and they felt that they were in the haze that covered the sky and the sea, and the heavy curtain hung by the red and blue long flags. The white sails, the black and red hull, and the countless cannon ports with holes in the red bars were dazzling and heavy.

Ten Haixin ships, twenty sea carp ships, and two sea shark ships are just a small part of the Anglo-Chinese Navy, and for Lin Liang and Lan Tingzhen, who have witnessed the naval battle of Subic, there is not much shock. It can be arranged in three layers, arranged for several miles in the center of the fleet, the hull of the ship is painted with two scarlet cannon lines, and it is clearly emphasized that it is a giant ship with a double gun deck battleship, but the impact is extremely huge, for Lin and Lan, who know the origin of this giant ship, the sense of shock is far beyond vision.

This battleship was originally a Spaniard, but the Spaniards, who had such a huge ship, were defeated day by day.

When the Anglo-Chinese Navy came to the Jinxia Sea with such a huge ship and the fleet, Lin Lan and the others didn't know what Shi Shiji thought, their own thoughts were very clear, they didn't even have the strength to fight.

The more than a dozen red-clothed cannons left by Zheng Chen on the fort ranging from 3,000 to 8,000 catties were not as many as the guns on a medium-sized battleship.

There are nearly 100 hard-sail warships on the sea, and the largest dozen or so warships can compare with the medium-sized warships of others, but not to mention that the ships are as slow as old cows, and each ship is only equipped with four three-thousand-pound guns.

There are twenty or thirty fireboats in the fleet, but you can look at the Philippine array, the sea carp ships are placed in front, covering the big ships, and they are already strictly guarded.

What made Lin Liang and Lan Tingxian breathe a sigh of relief was that after the opponent's fleet suddenly arrived, they just pulled out of the queue and did not fire their guns, which seemed to have a glimmer of life.

After this fleet entered the waters of Fujian, Jinxia already knew about it. Shi Shiqi was stable in Xiamen day by day, gathering warships and densely arranging defenses, and it seemed that he was determined to fight to the death in Jinxia.

Shi Shifu naturally did not dare to give up Jinxia, since Nanao and even Gulei lost, Jinxia has become the only outlet connecting Penghu and Taiwan, and then Nanban seized Jinxia, the sea route from the mainland to Taiwan will be completely blocked.

Emperor Shengdao and Emperor Yongzheng had a tacit understanding earlier, and there was basically no major movement during this period except for the matter of Wuchang. But no one thought that the Holy Dao Emperor would continue to nest in Lingnan.

But the Holy Dao Emperor turned into fire so quickly, which was still beyond most people's expectations. As soon as Luzon was peaceful, before the army was completely withdrawn, the Emperor Shengdao sent a fleet to collect Jinxia, which was to take Taiwan into his pocket. Many people even guessed that the Holy Dao Emperor wanted to take the whole of Fujian.

Therefore, Shi Shifat did not dare to retreat, Taiwan is his family business, Fujian is his business, and he, the Jinghai general, is responsible for defending Fujian.

This means a hopeless bloody battle, Lin Liang and Lan Tingzhen both took their respective posts with the despair of dying in battle, but they were not reckless, seeing that there was a different opportunity, they did not want to block hope, and rashly opened fire to death.

On behalf of Shi Shiqiu, who came to the front line of Kinmen to supervise the battle, was his fourth son Shi Tingji, a guerrilla in his early twenties, he held a telescope, looked at this and that, and glanced at every ship of the enemy fleet, and stayed on that giant ship for an unusually long time, and his Adam's apple was almost once every three to five seconds.

I don't know how long it took for Shi Tingji to put down the binoculars, and then found one thing, the opponent's warship was on the sea three or four miles away, but until now, whether it was the fort or his own warship in the bay, there was no movement.

He got off the lookout and asked Lin Liang angrily: Why don't you fire the cannon yet! Door"...,

Lin Liang paused for a moment, and reluctantly responded: The enemy is strange, and the weight is the best...",

Uncanny! Of course the door is weird!

Shi Tingji was about to curse, but the whistle shouted: It's moving! It's moving! ”

Shi Tingji and Lin Liangsi raised their binoculars and looked at each other, the other party did move, and a sea carp ship was leaving the queue and heading towards the fleet in the bay.

It was the envoy sent by the other party, Shi Tingji and Lin Liang here, Lan Tingzhen on the ship's face turned pale, and he didn't have to think about it to know that he must have come to persuade him to surrender.

But even Shi Tingji didn't dare to say anything about firing the cannon again, although it was determined that it would still be a dead word after that, but it was better than dying now, not to mention, in case someone was just passing by and came to say hello to him. After all, everyone had a tacit understanding before, and they were even allowed to visit the Battle of Subic.

People are like this, before death really comes, they are always reluctant to easily throw away hope, no matter how slim that hope is.

When the envoy was brought to the Lan Tingji ship, Shi Tingji and Lin Liang also arrived, and with Shi Tingji present, Lan Tingzhen would never meet the enemy envoy alone.

The dark blue placket is ironed straight, the two rows of brass buttons are eye-catching, the pure white brimmed hat, the pure white narrow trousers, and the cuffs are two gold embroidery. When the middle-aged general raised his hand, the pure white gloves attracted the attention of the three of them. It's like giving it up, and it's like tidying up your gloves.

The three of them wrinkled their shields. is not only annoyed that this person is arrogant, but also why this guy is wearing a pair of white gloves. They don't know that the Anglo-Chinese army is particularly neat and tidy, and they are not afraid of dying in battle, but they are afraid of being disheveled and dirty when they die in battle. Hygiene has become a professional habit, and more navies have developed a habit of cleanliness in their spare time, and officers wear white gloves to facilitate cleaning on ships.

Contemptible Luo Wugui, come to spread the news to you...",

After tidying up the gloves, the general officer put his hands behind his back, said coldly, and swept the three of them with a downward gaze.

Looking at the three silver stars on this person's shoulders, Lin Liang and Lan Tingzhen understood that this person's rank was a right lieutenant, which was roughly equivalent to the deputy general or staff general here.
