The officers and soldiers of the Chongwu Institute learned of the arrival of the sea wolf fleet in advance, and immediately became nervous, and the guards of the Chongwu Institute were immediately retreated to the city of Qianhu by a commander surnamed Bai who was guarding the place, and the gate of the fortress was closed, ready for defense.

As for the merchant ships gathered here, they also got the news that the sea wolf fleet had arrived at Chongwusho, and immediately the wharf was like a bombed battalion, and the Fujian officials and troops here also transferred more than a dozen warships of various types to serve as an escort for the merchant fleet.

Just when Liu Yidao led the team to the Chongwu Sea, a beacon tower located at the easternmost tip of the Chongwu Peninsula immediately discovered their whereabouts, and immediately lit the beacon fire of the beacon tower.

Chongwu suddenly seemed to be facing a great enemy, and the guards immediately withdrew into the acropolis, ready to defend the city, and the more than a dozen Fujian naval warships on the dock also immediately began to beckon the soldiers to board the ship, began to pull the anchor and set sails, and sailed out of the anchorage.

Although it shows that the army has been in ruins of coastal defense by this year, the officers and men of the Fujian Navy Division have still seen a big scene, and they have hardly stopped fighting with pirates and red-haired people from all walks of life over the years, and there is no lack of courage.

More than a dozen warships were of different shapes, none of them were Daifuku ships, most of them were Cangshan iron or catch up and sentinel ships, the equipment was quite simple, and the condition of the ships was average, but they still sailed out of the anchorage and met the fleet of sea wolves.

Liu Yidao didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, and as soon as he gave an order, he beckoned the fleet to rush towards these dozen official and military warships.

Immediately, a thunderous cannon sound sounded on the sea, and the rumbling cannon sound spread throughout the entire Chongwu sea, and the smoke of gunpowder rose up on the sea surface one by one.

More than 30 sea wolf warships, dealing with more than a dozen official warships, is simply a piece of cake, although the officers and men on the naval warship still had the courage to fight with the sea wolf at the beginning, but when the sea wolf's cannon sounded, they immediately peed their pants.

At this time, they found that the sea wolf really had a lot of Western cannons, which was not something they could parry at all, and as soon as they fought, several warships led by the officers and soldiers were hit by the dense shells of the sea wolf, and two of the warships were broken on the spot on the sea, and they were sunk in the sea, leaving only some broken ship wreckage and officers and soldiers who fell overboard.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the rest of the sailor warships began to flee in the direction of Quanzhou Bay, and no longer had the intention of resisting the attack of the sea wolf fleet here.

And Liu Yidao did not chase and kill these fleeing sailor warships, leaving two boats to salvage those officers and soldiers who fell into the water at sea, and the rest went straight to the Chongwusu dock.

At this time, more than 60 merchant ships gathered at the wharf of Chongwusuo, and when they saw the fleet of sea wolves coming, they defeated the sailors' warships with a chirp, and suddenly frightened the shipwrights on the ship one by one about to pee their pants.

Some merchant ships no longer paid attention to the orders of the government, and immediately began to pull anchors and sails in a shouting and trying to escape from here, and the docks were in chaos for a while.

At this time, some of the warships that the sea wolf had separated in advance had already come around and blocked the outside of the Chongwusuo dock, blocking the way of these merchant ships.

Immediately, Liu Yidao led the rest of the fleet, directly docked, and unloaded more than 200 sea wolf soldiers on the shore, these soldiers were personally led by Li Dazui, and as soon as they landed, they immediately began to form a formation and ran towards the direction of the dock.

The Bai Qianzong of Chongwu saw the pirates landing and rushed towards the dock, so he hurriedly led his troops out of the acropolis, and also gathered more than 300 officers and soldiers, and led them to the dock, trying to prevent these pirates from controlling the dock.

The two sides met near the dock and formed a state of standoff in their respective formations.

For the Sea Wolf soldiers, this was the first time they had a large-scale confrontation with the officers and soldiers, and some of the soldiers were a little nervous in their hearts, and their eyes widened and looked at the officers and soldiers opposite.

But when they saw the appearance of the guards of the Chongwu Institute, this heart was immediately put back into their stomachs.

Although the equipment of the officers and soldiers is more uniform than that of ordinary pirates, and the clothing is also relatively uniform, but after the soldiers of the guard station reached this year, they had already become a group of serfs in the name of being soldiers, and the military uniforms on their bodies had not even been changed for many years, and the color was almost faded, and they were even more torn like flowers, which looked shabby enough.

Although the weapons in their hands are relatively unified, they are also poorly maintained, the salt spray is heavy in the coastal areas, the humidity is large, and the iron tools are easy to rust, and if they are not well maintained, they will be corroded badly, and the knives and guns in the hands of the officers and soldiers are rusty and look tattered, including some of the limited bird guns and fire guns in their hands, which are also a rusty mess, which really makes people doubt whether they can be fired.

When it comes to the soldiers, either it is simply gone, or there are only a few big sons left, nominally a soldier has a monthly salary of one or two silvers, but in essence, almost no one can see it, except for the officer's own soldiers can also get the military salary, ordinary soldiers can not get the military salary they should receive, even if it is rationed to them, when they get it, there is only a small amount of moldy food left, and it is impossible to even eat enough. Not to mention the oil for the maintenance of weapons.

But the sea wolf people looked down at themselves, and suddenly there was a strong sense of satisfaction, the sea wolf people all have uniform clothes, although they are not good fabrics, but they are basically new, as long as they become trainee sailors or soldiers, the sea wolves will give them two sets of summer clothes, two sets of autumn and winter clothes, and a buckle of the cowhide belt, and a pair of leggings.

Although most of the straw sandals are worn under their feet, but every two months, they will be given a pair of straw sandals, so that they will not be barefoot, and some soldiers have obtained quite rare iron helmets, almost all of the soldiers are now also given a whale skin or cowhide short armor, even if there is no iron helmet, now the sea wolf has also issued them a rattan helmet, the front is inlaid with an iron piece, which can effectively resist stray arrows.

There are also the weapons of the Sea Wolf Ministry, not to mention, the tip of the spear is made of fine iron, sharpened very sharp, there are two stiffeners on both sides of the tip of the spear, there is a blood groove next to the stiffener, and the barrel of the spear is also made of good wood turned by a simple machine, straight and strong, and comfortable to hold.

The knife player is equipped with a rattan leather shield covered with cowhide or whale skin, more than two feet in diameter, which can effectively protect the body of the soldier, and the single knife issued is at least made of fine iron, if not steel, which is quite sharp and strong.

As for the musketeers, needless to say, they were armed with the most advanced flintlock pistols of the era, and each of them had two leather bags on their belts, one containing forty full bamboo or paper shell propellants, and the other leather box containing spare lead pellets and primers that had been prepared, and a bayonet more than a foot long at his waist, which could be used to reach the muzzle of the flintlock at any time, making it a short spear.

Such a level of equipment is at least in the Ming Dynasty, and few armed forces can reach it.

In addition, under the supervision of Xiaotian, the sea wolf, whether it is a soldier or a navy, attaches great importance to the maintenance of weapons, formulates a set of regulations for weapon maintenance, and strictly implements them.

Working in the sea wolf, the weapons must be maintained and wiped every day, and the sea wolf because of the support of the whaling industry, they are not short of grease, each person is given a small pot of grease, as the maintenance of the weapon, it is strictly forbidden for anyone to use it for other purposes, by the captain or even the chief, check the maintenance of their weapons every day, and the captain of the detachment must check the maintenance of all the weapons of all his subordinates every ten days.

Even Yu Xiaotian patrolled everywhere to check the maintenance of weapons, which was an important part of his routine, and once he found that someone did not honestly maintain their weapons in accordance with the regulations, they would be deducted from their monthly salary, fines and bounties would be deducted, and they might even be demoted or expelled from their ranks.

At first, the sea wolf people were very unaccustomed to this kind of regulation, and felt that Yu Xiaotian was a little nitpicky, as long as the knife and gun were almost sharp enough, a little rust was nothing, as long as the fire gun was poured clean of the medicine residue in the gun tube, it could still be fired, and it would be possible to wipe it every day, wipe it every month, wipe it every month, wipe it brightly?

But rules are rules, and if you don't do it, you will be punished, and gradually people will get used to it, and it has gradually become their tradition, so the maintenance of the weapons of the sea wolf, looking at the Ming Dynasty, there is absolutely no second army that can surpass them.

And their weapons have been properly maintained, the biggest advantage is to reduce the rust of the weapon, greatly extend the life of the weapon, and make the weapon in a usable state at any time, including all kinds of artillery on the ship, on the shore and in the barracks, it is very rare to see rust spots on the gun, after a long time, the sea wolf tribes themselves feel that these weapons of their own are pleasing to the eye.

When the sea wolf soldiers lined up on the shore, dozens of spears were erected, and the sunlight sprinkled on the tips of the spears, reflecting a little cold light, and the iron helmets above their heads or the iron pieces inlaid on the rattan helmets also shone in the sunlight.

In addition, the sea wolf has always attached great importance to drill training, and once the soldiers received the order to line up, they immediately lined up in a horizontal and vertical queue, and each shy chest and belly straightened their bodies, and after standing up, they did not move at all, and immediately produced a strong sense of violent beauty, which made people have to admire.

Therefore, the 200 Sea Wolf soldiers, once they finished marching, immediately produced a powerful deterrent to the officers and soldiers, which made the officers and soldiers suddenly weaken a little.

Twenty sea wolf soldiers in the formation of the formation, immediately carried five sea wolf self-made new tiger squat cannons, on the left side of the array set up, tiger squat cannon under two iron feet, tail added an iron ring, after the cannon is placed, if you need to open the cannon, you can use an iron drill to smash into the ground, so that the tiger squat cannon is firmly fixed on the ground, but at this time these artillery did not get the order to prepare to fire, so just put the cannon on the ground, the muzzle of the gun pointed directly at the opposite side of the officer, The tail iron brazing was not wedged into the ground.
