(The second update, ask for a red ticket)

The night before, in order to seize the beach and attack Daheng Island, the boats and warships were damaged a lot, and the silver for repair alone was more than 6,000 taels; Not to mention that 197 people were killed in this battle, and more than 800 people were traumatized to varying degrees.

Because the luxury family regarded the Shengsi Islands as a frontier stronghold, named Haikou, which was actually the elite of the garrison, and the grain and grass materials were burned, except for a batch of excellent armor, the other seizures were pitiful, and they could not make ends meet at all.

The pension for the death of the Jiangdong Left Army is five acres each in Ueda and Nakata. Chongzhou has more people and less land, and the price of land has risen sharply in the past two years. Miao Shuo opened his mouth and said that he would give 6,000 taels of silver to the Jiangdong Left Army as military funds to defend the Shengsi Islands, which was not enough to compensate for 100 casualties.

After the luxury family vacated from eastern Zhejiang, they were bound to fight for Shengsi, and when the time came, they didn't know how many lives they had to fill in to keep it, Miao Shuo was embarrassed to open his mouth and report a number of six thousand taels - Lin Shuo's eyes staring at Miao Shuo were gloomy, and under the moon, Miao Shuo had a few strands of false beard stuck under his chin, and said secretly: Why did Empress Dowager Liang send such a stingy eunuch to take care of Yu Dong?

If Miao Shuo does not come, Lin Jian will defend Shengsi in order to protect Chongzhou from being disturbed, and Yudong, which is located behind the side of Shengsi, is naturally not threatened; When Miao Shuo said this, Lin Jian thought about whether he could use Yudong Gongzhuang as bait in the future?

Chen Huawen and Chen Mingzhe's faces were also quite ugly, and they secretly said that this Miao Shuo was too stingy.

In order to show goodwill, Lin Jian gave a generous gift of nearly 30,000 taels of silver when he got married. This time, there was no mention of silver, six fast warships, said to be loaned, but the Jiangdong Left Army and the main force of the North Line of the East China Sea Kou fought fiercely at sea, and the warships were damaged more than that, how could they be embarrassed to get these six warships back? In addition, in the future, the Jiangdong Left Army stationed troops to guard the Shengsi Islands, and Chen Huawen also promised Haiyu to bear the supply of grain, oil, meat, etc., so as to reduce the burden on Chongzhou.

The Jiangdong Left Army nominally had only 3,000 troops, but in fact the strength of the troops on Daheng Island at this time exceeded 5,000 people, plus the strength of Chongzhou and Changsheng Island, it must have exceeded 10,000 people (mainly to gather the local township soldiers, social soldiers and some private soldiers in the hands of the powerful clans, and use them as county soldiers and township bravery, so that the number of soldiers surged, and the supply was naturally borne by the county, Chongzhou did not have such financial resources, and the supply pressure was naturally passed on to the head of the Jiangdong Left Army).

In peacetime, the number of soldiers can be reduced and the expenses can be reduced. At this time, the situation is critical, lest there be insufficient troops, where can we dare to lay off troops? However, maintaining more than 10,000 troops must far exceed Chongzhou's supply capacity, Chen Huawen, Chen Mingzhe and Haiyu hope that the Jiangdong Left Army can hold the Shengsi Islands, why didn't they say anything at all?

In the future, the Jiangdong Left Army stationed 3,500 garrisons on the Shengsi Islands, and the full supply of grain, oil, meat, etc., at most 35,000 taels of silver per month, it is estimated that the situation will ease in three or five months.

In comparison, Hai Yu couldn't pluck much hair more than Yu Dong, but Miao Shuo opened his mouth to give six thousand taels, which was not enough to add two main warships to Lin Bin, so it seemed too stingy.

Chen Huawen and Chen Mingzhen couldn't look at each other, standing with their hands in their hands, their eyes looking away.

Yuan Jinsheng was quite embarrassed, Miao Shuo was able to get the trust of the Queen Mother to take care of Yu Dong, and the silver was extremely tight.

Lin Jian hated in his heart, but his face was silent, and said: "Master Miao said so, then Lin is not welcome, I really lack high-quality warships in my hands, then I will change three ships to Brother Yuan and Master Miao so that they can go back to Yudong......"

The three brigs that came with Miao Shuo and Yuan Jinsheng were covered with iron, and the shape of the ship was like a shuttle, and the appearance from a distance knew that it was a very good fast warship. Although it is not as large as the Jiyun-class Thousand Stone Warship, it is larger than an ordinary loach ship.

Of course, Lin Jian would not refuse to leave, but he also didn't want to keep Yuan Jinsheng and Miao Shuo on Daheng Island, who knew that they would not have anything to do with the luxury family? It was decided to change the three broken ships and invite them back to Yudong.

Miao Shuo, Yuan Jinsheng, and the young armor soldiers behind them all changed color slightly when they heard that Lin Jian was about to send them away. Although they didn't want to stay in the dangerous place, Lin Jian asked Chen Huawen to guard Daheng Island on his behalf and burned his eyebrows to send them away, so that their face would not be saved?

Lin Jian only didn't notice it, and said with a lot of consideration for them: "It's not that Brother Yuan and Master Miao are not left on the island - the situation in eastern Zhejiang is collapsing, Daheng Island is a dangerous place to fight, and the nobles are not living in it...... What happened when Brother Yuan and Master Miao stayed on Daheng Island, I can't explain it in front of Master Hou. ”

Lin Jian said this, Miao Shuo and Yuan Jinsheng's faces were a little better, and scolding in their hearts was another matter, at least they took care of their faces. Lin Jian immediately asked Zhao Qingshan to transfer three loach boats that were not too badly damaged, and he still did not relax his guard when changing guards.

****************

After changing ships, Lin Jian felt that these three brigs were indeed good, slightly smaller in shape, but with enough materials, they were no worse than Jiyun and Jinhai warships, in addition to the watertight compartments, the side sides were also reinforced, and the skin was covered with iron, which was an extremely high-quality warship.

There is no sign of the development of large-scale sailors in Yudong Gongzhuang, but judging from these three warships, it can be inferred that those warriors hidden in Yudong Gongzhuang, no matter what their combat power is, the armor and crossbow should be extremely sophisticated - Lin Jian looked at the three loach boats that Yuan Jinsheng and Miao Shuo crossed the sea and returned, and said secretly: Empress Dowager Liang, Marquis Yongchang and the Liang family conspired to raise private soldiers in Yudong Palace, this battle in the inner court is really sinister and full of blood!

Although there are guards and pawns in the Huangzhuang everywhere to prevent theft and defend the village to suppress and exploit the villagers, when it comes to combat effectiveness, I am afraid that it will be ranked behind the ordinary county soldiers. If the guards of Yudong Palace Zhuang can protect themselves under the attack of a large number of pirates and even elite soldiers of luxury families, it is impossible not to arouse the vigilance of Emperor Chongguan - Yuan Jinsheng and Miao Shuo are not afraid of a small group of pirates invading Yudong, so they are worried about the invasion of a large number of pirates, so that the secrets hidden in Yudong Palace will be exposed.

Lin Jian sent Chen Huawen and Chen Mingzhe's uncle and nephew off the ship, and then ordered the sail to set sail, so that the fleet would stick to the north side of Daheng Island and go eastward, giving Yuan Jinsheng and Miao Shuo this delay, it was already dawn, and the sea and sky were clear morning light.

"After tossing all night, let's go back to the cabin to rest first...... Zhao Qingshan said.

"You should also pay attention to rest," Lin Jian said, "Cunxiong stays on Daheng Island to recuperate, and the burden of the First Water Camp is on your shoulders......"

Zhao Qingshan was just about to change the boat and return to his command ship, but he heard the watchpost of the warship on the left flank blow a long horn with a whimper, to show that a large number of ships were approaching on the north side, and the beacon fire and wolf smoke of the outpost at the northern foot of Jinji Mountain in the distance were almost all ignited at the same time, and the enemy attacked! A large number of Kou soldiers are attacking!

Lin Jian and Zhao Qingshan hurriedly boarded the aft deck, looking north, the sails were heavy, covering the sky and the sun, I was afraid that there were no less than seventy or eighty warships, it was the main force of the East China Sea Koubei Line led by the luxury Feihu to cross the sea, and the momentum was to seize the beach and land on the East Peninsula.

Lin Jian really wanted to thank Yuan Jinsheng and Miao Shuo for coming over and delaying them for more than an hour. Otherwise, they would set sail at an hour's notice, and at this time they would be forty or fifty miles away from Daheng Island.

At that time, I saw the beacon fire and wolf smoke lit on Daheng Island and turned the bow of the ship to return to help, going against the wind, I am afraid that it will be delayed for three or four hours, and the pursuit may not be able to catch up when it is reversed.

"Raising the signal flag, ordering Ge Cunxin to lead the second water battalion to attack the enemy position with geese, and all the ships of the first water battalion will follow my command ship to the east along the island shore and intercept its return route; Zhou Tong led the Chongzhou infantry battalion and the first battalion of the county soldiers to the north beach of East Island to form a formation, in order to prepare for the soldiers to seize the beach and land on the island! "Lin Lian's spirits are uplifted,

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and the field of vision was relatively limited, and it was almost eight or nine miles before the main fleet of the northern line of the East China Sea approached the north beach of the East Peninsula, and the North Cliff lookout discovered the enemy's situation. The left flank warships of the Jiangdong Left Army Boat Division were closer to the main fleet of the northern line of the East China Sea, only four or five miles away.

The boat division of the Jiangdong Left Army is heading eastward, and the main force of the northern line of the East China Sea is heading south, if they don't notice it, they will just meet on the north beach of the East Peninsula, and it is not bad to say that they meet on a narrow road. When the narrow road met the brave battle, Lin Jian didn't care about using the warship at this time, and personally commanded the main force of the northern line of the East China Sea to meet in the waters of North Beach.

**************

When the flying tiger heard the alarm from the watchpost on the mast, the ape body climbed on the mast, and looked shocked to the south: in the sea area on the north side of Daheng Island, the boat division of the Jiangdong Left Army spread out in a horizontal formation, and had already set up a formation, waiting for them to collide headlong.

After losing more than 1,000 troops, the Flying Tiger knew that Changshan Island could not be taken in the short term, and there was no condition for a long-term siege, so he retreated to the southwest beach for a day and a night, and rushed to cross the sea at dusk to attack Daheng Island.

Traveling all the way, there was no contact with the sentinel ships of the Jiangdong Left Army, and there was night cover, and the luxury Feihu couldn't figure out how Lin Lian knew their whereabouts even if he wanted to break his head, so he made arrangements in the sea area of the north beach of Daheng Island in advance, and his hands and feet were cold for a while, and he was a little confused.

Extravagant Feihu suffered too many setbacks on Lin Bin, his ambition was robbed, and the young Yongrui who became famous was suppressed in front of Lin Bin, not to mention that he became famous for his good fighting, but he was resourceful but not as good as Qin Zitan and other strategists.

In other words, Qin Zitan was sober and saw the situation in front of him, most of them could guess that the battle situation in eastern Zhejiang had been decided, and at this moment, it was just that Lin Jian was in a hurry to stabilize the situation around Chongzhou before the main force of his luxury family was able to withdraw his hand from eastern Zhejiang.

Luxury Feihu couldn't guess that Quan Ciqing led the main force of Zhejiang soldiers to give him the luxury family a big defeat in Longshan, and he didn't know that Chen Huawen led the Haiyu Township battalion to help defend Daheng Island, so that Lin Lian could draw the main force from Daheng Island, and at this moment he was going to attack Changshan Island.

Although Lin Jian cherished the use of warships and did not dare to inflict heavy losses on the boat division, so that he did not suppress Xiao Taoyuan's naval combat strength, he planned to draw out the Chongcheng infantry battalion and the county soldiers and civilians bravely, so that the infantry could rush to land on Changshan Island and attack the Kou soldiers on the island with Qin Chengzu and Ning Zechen on Changshan Island, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the scale of naval battles and reducing the losses of warships.

Lu Feihu didn't know that Lin Jian also obtained nine strong warships from Haiyu Township Camp and Yudong Miaoshuo, so that the naval combat capability of the Jiangdong Left Army was restored to a certain extent.

When he was a teenager, he fought for the luxury family in Eastern Fujian, and his tactical literacy was the top among the people of the time, even if he couldn't think through many things, and he was frightened by Lin Lian's formation in the waters of North Beach, but he knew that it was impossible to escape if he wanted to take stock in danger.

The distance between the two ship formations is only four or five miles, and such a large ship formation of each other occupies a radius of several miles, and the direction of the wind prompts the two sides to meet, and it is not possible to adjust the steering of the ship formation for a while, only to install the established plan to continue to move forward and seize the beach and land on the island, or to preserve more strength.

Luxury Feihu also saw that the ship formation of the Jiangdong Left Army Boat Division Chen in the waters of Beitan was a little thin and easy to penetrate - of course, the Jiangdong Left Army fleet was slowly expanding eastward, as a marching fleet, the north direction was considered a flank, how could it be thick?

The sea battle that both sides avoided by each other suddenly unfolded at a coincidental time in the waters of the north beach of Daheng Island, and both sides were not prepared, but the subtle changes were: Lin Tie had to fight a naval battle hard, but the luxury Feihu was more concerned about penetrating the thin ship blockade of the Jiangdong Left Army's boat division, rushing to land, preserving more strength, and waiting for the main force of the southern front to come to help.
