Chapter 213: Capture Half of the Fleet Brotherly Alliance

Another brilliant victory.

Li Jing rode his horse to the north wharf of Wuhu Island, followed by a large group of officers and family members such as Lin Wu and Wang Chong. The docks were bustling with activity, with hundreds of town soldiers lying in ambush surrounding a large group of captives with bows and crossbows. The captives were now unarmed, and even their armor and battle robes were forced to take off, and only their white midcoats shivered in the night wind. In the countless fires, Li Jing saw Feng Ming at a glance.

At this time, like the other captives, the gorgeous armor and sword on his body were gone, and he was only wearing a set of white silk middle single, but now this middle single is no longer white, and it is stained with many black shoe prints of different sizes, the lines on it, and the shoe size, at first glance, it is the only military shoe designated for production by the clothing workshop in Shamen Town.

Countless torches illuminated the pier as if it were daylight, and Feng Ming not only had shoe prints on his clothes, but also a shoe print on his face, half of his face was swollen, and the corners of his mouth and eyebrows were torn and bleeding. Until now, Feng Ming still couldn't understand what was going on. After they left Zhang Liedian, they went straight to Wuhu Island with the heart of a friend of the Dead Dao who would not die and the poor Dao. Seeing the wharf on Wuhu Island in sight, looking at the lights on the wharf and the soldiers on duty on the arrow tower, he suddenly felt like he had escaped death.

He didn't want to stay at sea for a moment, so he hurriedly rushed directly to the dock with the remnants of the defeated soldiers, and the soldiers on duty on the dock came forward with a smile on their faces, and brought them tea and water. After drinking a big bowl of water, Feng Ming no longer asked for any Wuliangye, and was about to go back to the castle to take a hot bath and wash away the bad luck in his body. But it didn't work out. Suddenly, countless soldiers poured out from all sides. With a cold and shining crossbow bow and arrow, spear and shield, he completely surrounded them.

An officer didn't understand the situation, and just scolded a sentence, and immediately said that he had been nailed through by several crossbow arrows and became a hornet's nest. At this time, Feng Ming sat in the cold mud with a sluggish face, and he couldn't even care about the slightest image. In front of that group of soldiers who are like tigers and wolves, if they dare to say a word, they will immediately be beaten up. If you dare to move, you will also be beaten hard. At the beginning, he also shouted to see Li Guofu, the general of Wuhubao Town, and shouted that he was Feng Ming, but it had no effect except for kicking him one after another. Now he finally recognized it, honestly holding his head in his hands and half-squatting and half-sitting in the mud.

He still hasn't figured out what all this is about, whether Li Guofu betrayed him, or Li Jing occupied Wuhu Island. Look at the look of the soldiers. They are all fresh faces that they have never seen before, not like the people of Wuhu Fort. But these people's weapons armor. But it is also the standard system of the imperial court. These people are soldiers and not bandits, but he doesn't know where the soldiers are from.

Li Jing just glanced at Feng Ming from a distance, and didn't bother to look at this person anymore. He first walked up to the dock and walked towards the eight captured warships that were tied to the sea at the dock. Stepping over the gangplank, boarding the Changshan Iron Armor Sea Falcon, touching the iron armor installed on both sides of it, as well as the huge and hideous iron plough beak, I couldn't help but be excited. Such an advanced battleship is now its own.

Feng Ming, who was squatting in the group of captives, finally saw Li Jing and his group of subordinates, he remembered these people in Shamen Town very clearly, the first time they met, he was beaten by Li Jing and those generals, and he still felt a faint pain in his body when he remembered it. His eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that the person who ambushed him was actually Li Jing.

Li Jing appeared here, who is the person from Tieshan Harbor?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, and he remembered his real mission this time, to come and sweep away a mysterious pirate force that might be crisscrossing the vast sea. It was a powerful pirate fleet that was suspected of being looted by the Feng Clan of Feng Chang and Duli Town, and captured Cat Island. Feng Zhang has always suspected that Li Jing and this pirate force secretly colluded, and then ransacked Cat Island together. It was just his instinctive suspicion, but now, all this has finally become a reality in front of Feng Ming.

Li Jing of donkey ball, all this is a trap that has been planned for a long time, from the very beginning. He deliberately let out a rumor to beat the one-eyed pirates and lead them to be fooled. Li Jing deliberately appeared at Old Sow Reef and then suddenly disappeared. At this time, the mysterious pirates suddenly broke through the Iron Mountain Cottage of One-Eyed Jiao, and deliberately let a few pirates go to report the news. They were all deceived by Li Jing, thinking that it was Li Jing who attacked Tieshan. But he didn't expect it to be another group of people, and when he rushed to Iron Mountain, Li Jing jumped out and quietly seized the empty Wuhu Island.

It's just that now it's too late to figure out all this. He sat down on the ground in a dejected state, his heart like ashes. Even if Li Jing didn't kill him, he wouldn't dare to go back to Da Xie Yan, and if he went back, he would die.

Soon, some of the soldiers of Shamen came forward and tied all the captives with their hands behind their backs, and trapped them in a large string with hemp rope, like a large string of grasshoppers, and finally drove them to a large empty warehouse in the city and imprisoned them. All the captives were nervous, not knowing what fate awaited them.

Not long after Li Jing watched the eight captured warships one by one at the dock, Megan and the others rushed back to the dock with three captured warships, and then Yellowbeard led hundreds of large and small warships, with eleven captured warships and countless trophies.

The dock was completely jubilant, and everyone was excited to see that even the huge fighting ship had become a trophy.

Wang Zhong stood in front of Li Jing with the statistical table that had been sorted out, his face was full of red light, and his voice trembled and said loudly: "In this battle, our army defeated the enemy army and annihilated the enemy fleet and the pirate fleet. According to the count, our army sank a total of 12 warships of the size of the Great Xie Yan and 13 pirate warships, sinking a total of 25 warships. Our troops captured 18 enemy ships, surrendered 3 enemy ships, and captured a total of 21 enemy ships. ”

"The enemy ships sunk included one Wuyalou ship, one three-story large fighting ship, one ironclad sea falcon, one ordinary sea falcon, one other ship, two boats, and seven yachts. The captured included one large fighting ship, three ironclad sea falcons, three ordinary sea falcons, seven ships, two walkers, and five yachts. ”

Every time he said a word, all the officers below couldn't help but exclaim and applaud. Before the war, no one expected such a victory. Didn't even think about victory. Not to mention the direct annihilation of the entire fleet and the pirate fleet. And in the First World War, half of the enemy ships were captured. This is something that is even more unlikely. Combat at sea. It was difficult to capture, either the enemy ship fled or sank. Under normal circumstances, only broadside battles can capture enemy ships, but once broadside battles, the damage of both sides is often 10,000 kills and 8,000 self-losses.

"This battle!" The more excited Wang became when he restarted his thoughts, and the last time he was in the end had changed from chanting to shouting and singing. The voice is loud but with a hint of sharpness, like singing. "In this battle, our army annihilated a total of 873 people of the Great Xie Yan Army, including three officers above the rank of captain, seven officers above the head of the general, 21 officers above the head of the team, and 354 pirates. A total of 1,217 enemy troops were annihilated. ”

"More than 1,800 soldiers and horses were captured, including more than 30 officers including the enemy ship Duyu Marquis Fengming. In addition, Zheng Mo led 600 pirates to surrender, and Zhang Lie, the deputy town of Montenegrin Fort, led three warships, 300 soldiers and 200 sailors to surrender. In addition, when our army salvaged the enemy troops who fell into the water in Tieshan Bay. The commander of the enemy ship who was wounded and fell into the water, Wu Qian, the general of Fort Montenegro, had already persuaded nearly 800 other soldiers who had fallen into the water to surrender to our headquarters together. ”

Li Jing had previously obtained a copy of the interrogation results of Feng Ming and other prisoners from Li Wei, and roughly knew the entire battle of Tieshan. He didn't expect that Wu Qian was lucky not to die, and with Zhang Lie, two town-level officers had already surrendered.

"What about our casualties?" With such a big victory, Li Jing was ready to bear heavy losses in his heart.

"The casualties were minor, and the battle was fought too smoothly." Yellowbeard interjected, and Da Lu said with a smile, "Compared to the outcome of this battle, we are not damaged at all. In the past, sometimes robbing a merchant ship and encountering some ruthless ballast, dozens of casualties were required. But this time, the entire fleet was killed in one fell swoop, plus the damage caused during the attack on the Iron Mountain Thieves' Cave, all of them were killed and seriously injured in less than a hundred, not to mention the minor injuries, they were bandaged by Brother Duan's people, and now they are all alive and well, and there is no problem in another battle. ”

There was no damage on Zhendonghai's side, and Megan and Julie were even more undamaged, and Zhang Lie returned directly, and they didn't even fight. Li Jing's side was also slightly damaged, and in the end, they wiped out Feng Zhang's detachment and a pirate fleet, annihilated more than 1,000 enemies, captured 2,000, and surrendered more than 1,000. But the damage they paid together was less than 200 people.

This result made everyone's faces full of incredulity, and they all looked at Li Jing. The battle was fought so smoothly that it could be said that it was not the superiority of troops, nor the strength of the fleet, but the excellent strategy. Digging pits step by step and waiting for the other party to jump, ring by ring, weakening the strength of the enemy army step by step, and finally swallowed by them in one bite.

"I don't think the enemy ships captured this time are as good as this, and the ten ships captured in Tieshan Port will return to the East China Sea. And the three ships captured by Megan, as well as the eight ships we captured on Wuhu Island, belong to us, what do you think? Although Li Jing also coveted the fighting ship and the ironclad sea falcon, he couldn't do anything that wanted the horses to run and not let the horses graze. Zhen Donghai has helped a lot this time, and to continue to maintain the current relationship, Li Jing feels that it is better to divide the interests as fairly as possible.

Yellowbeard shook his head, "That's not good. ”

Li Jing was slightly stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "If Huang Dangjia feels uncomfortable, then let's adjust it again." Why don't I pull out two more ships for you? ”

Yellowbeard still shook his head and said with a smile: "General Ji Yu misunderstood what we meant, we don't mean to be insatiable." Regarding the matter of the battleship, I discussed it with the third brother and the fourth brother, and I unanimously thought that this time Ji Yu and Feng Zhang had completely turned their faces. Therefore, the town of Salmon needs to be urgently strengthened. Our idea was that of the 21 captured warships, we would just need four assault ships and four yachts. We're pirates, and we don't have much chance of fighting a battle like this one at sea. The pirates pay attention to the speed, the speed of the ship, and the fire and arrow resistance, I think we use it well. We already have one of the tall fighting ships, so we don't want them, this ship can't run fast, and it's not suitable for us. The Black Skull is rarely used, so I'd better keep it for you. ”

Li Jing was really surprised and moved at this time, he didn't expect Zhen Donghai to be like this. After thinking about it, Li Jing smiled and said: "Since the few masters take care of them, it will be disrespectful in the future, and there will be a report in the future." But I can't let you suffer like this, so let's pull out another sea falcon and a boat to you. Don't refuse again, or I won't have the shame to accept these ships. ”

Megan smiled and said, "Oh, what's the push, anyway, we're all our own family now." The general gives it to you, and you will accept it, anyway, if you need it in the future, you can ask you to come back with the boat to help. ”

Yellowbeard and Li Jing both laughed at the same time, yes, after this battle, there is nothing to trust between Shamen Town and Zhendonghai.

"Ji Yu, some brothers who were injured in this battle are afraid that they will not be able to continue to live at sea, and they propose to live in Shamen Town with Bai Dangjia, what do you think?" Yellowbeard said with some emotion, in the past, many disabled brothers would not easily wash their hands and go ashore, because although Zhen Donghai would continue to take care of their lives, there was no guarantee after all. Now they are proposing to go to Shamen Town, but in fact, they have taken a fancy to the disability pension system of the soldiers of the Shamen Town Army. The soldiers killed and injured in Shamen Town will have a bereavement allowance, especially those who are disabled and quit the team, and some suitable leisure work will be arranged according to their physical conditions, and there will be continuous subsidies in the future, which is enough for them to live the rest of their lives with peace of mind. The time the pirates spent with the soldiers of Shamen Town also knew this, and they longed for it.

Li Jing groaned, and the yellow beard hurriedly said, "If it's not suitable, forget it." ”

"No, it's not inappropriate." Li Jing said, "I'm just thinking about how to arrange the lives of these brothers in the future, and the brothers of Zhendonghai are the brothers of our Shamen Town." Today, I, Li Jing, promise here, that in the future, the brothers in Zhendonghai who are old, sick and disabled, as long as they are willing, can move to my Shamen Town with their families after washing water. I will arrange the work of them and their families appropriately, and I will also receive the same discharge and disability allowance every month as our town soldiers. If I break this oath, I will die with ten thousand arrows piercing my heart. ”

The pirates in Zhendonghai had almost become a foreign reinforcement army of Li Jing, and if it weren't for the temporary constraints of some current conditions, they would have been able to go further. Li Jing was reluctant to push these forces away because of some trivial things.

Yellowbeard was overjoyed, and his face was full of relief. He also raised his hand and pressed it on his chest and said solemnly, "If someone votes for me, I will repay him." I, Yellowbeard, swear here today that Zhen Donghai will always be an allied brother of Shamen Town in the future. As long as Shamen Town is called, it will help each other. If I break this oath, I will die in a storm at sea, and I will not be reincarnated at the bottom of the sea. ”

"Shamen Town and Zhendonghai will always be a brotherly alliance from now on!" Li Jing and Yellowbeard clapped each other three times, and their hands were tightly clasped together. (To be continued.) )
