Chapter 544: The Tartars Fight Back (1)
The Songmen Acropolis area on the coast of Zhejiang is now in a stage of a victorious escape.
No matter how advanced the shipping technology of the Hantang Group was in this era, the ability of that dilapidated wharf to pass guò suddenly limited them to death, and they could only be transported by berthing ships one by one.
The dock is now crowded with people, there is a crying sound everywhere, and the order seems to be a little chaotic, but the basic situation is quite stable, and there are many land security team members and sea security team members who are maintaining it everywhere.
At this time, Dingyuan Marquis Zhenglian had just sent the four subordinates who were going to cause trouble to the Xiamen Black Fire and Pharmaceutical Factory to get a few boxes of grenades and bombs they had just produced.
At this time, he finally regained his normal clothes, and it was better to be an underworld boss.
Dingyuan Marquis Zhenglian was staring at the hot-air balloon that had just risen with a telescope.
It was the Han Tang Group security team after their support arrived, and the horse rose, and there were two soldiers on it, who were looking around with binoculars.
The hot air balloon was tied to the head of the city by a long cable.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian immediately figured it out, it turned out that this object was used like this, and it was excellent to use him to observe the enemy's situation, he originally thought that it was only used to transport goods.
Dingyuan Hou Zhenglian put down the monoculars, pointed to the hot air balloon and said, "This, this big Kong lantern, I want ten!" ”
Sun Yu, the captain of the Hai'an Brigade, smiled and said, "You came to me again, I can't even sell you a bullet." Go to the board! ”
Dingyuan Marquis Zhenglian nodded, it's a strange thing, the army of these people is not allowed to do business, but this group of people is robbing things.
He watched as the security guards on the dock were carefully leading the animals to the moored boats, and on the galleons in the distance, they were lifting them onto the boats with booms, slings and canvas to wrap their stomachs.
Not even a donkey was spared, but they didn't want the city! If it weren't for the eldest brother's forced order, he wouldn't have wanted it, he would have taken it all and hung the banner of Zheng Zi!
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian shook his head, he felt that these people were really smart, and they had the power of ghosts and gods, but they were too stingy, like men who were used to living a civilian life.
It was at this time that a message came from the celestial observation hot air balloon: enemy attack!
But what no one expected was that the Tatars would attack from the sea first!
There are more than 40 big sea ships in total! There are also a number of small boats.
Captain Sun Yu's saliva flowed down at once-
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian's eyes widened, he brushed the ground and put on his sunglasses, and immediately ordered his subordinates: "We want to help the Hantang Group, but the captured things, count the hard expenses of our waiting." ”
If it weren't for the latter sentence, Captain Sun Yu would really be able to let him join the sea hunt, but he still wanted to catch something?!
Captain Sun Yu immediately said: "The actions of the Haian Brigade are not allowed to be interfered with by others!" ”
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian pouted at this time and said, "All the captures are yours!" ”
Captain Sun Yu immediately said, "But we welcome the initiative to help!" ”
The corners of Dingyuan Marquis Zhenglian's mouth were about to turn into 80,000, and he shouted: "The warship has sailed!" The Pearl of the Orient is on fire! ”
However, the Zheng family's sailors found that their sailing movements were still far inferior to the sailboats of the Hantang Group, and when they quickly raised the hard sails with their hands and feet, the sailboats of the Hantang Group had already set off.
Captain Sun Yu ordered all the warships to be dispatched at that time, and ran a sea boat, which was considered a failure of this counterattack, and he had been holding back his strength to arrest you, and this was also sent to the door! ――
After the Taizhou Mansion in Zhejiang Province got the news that the Songmen Acropolis had been occupied by a group of pirates claiming to be the Han and Tang groups, Ninghai General Ilde was taken aback, and scolded the Yellow Flag School Bahari for being incompetent, and on the other hand, he immediately arranged men and horses to recapture it.
Before this big battle with the Zheng family, this happened ominously!
Ninghai General Ilde was sent to Taizhou Mansion by Doni, the king of Xuanhe County, to rectify the naval army, and for a time plundered ships and materials from many parties to put together nearly a thousand sea ships. Among them, there are nearly 400 large sea vessels.
He immediately ordered to point out nearly 50 large and small sea ships, and immediately go to sea, carrying elite soldiers with Manchu and Han flags.
After beheading the cavalry who had fled back to report the flag, this fleet rode along the coastline in the north wind and rushed towards the Songmen Acropolis!
The actual commander of this fleet was Li Shutai, who was the blue flag of the Han army.
Li Shutai was born in Liaodong and was originally known as Trillium. At the age of twelve, he joined Nurhachi and was given his current name.
In 1623, Nurhachi married him the daughter of the clan. At the age of twenty, he followed Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty to conquer Chahar, Chao and Xian, attacked Jinzhou in the Ming Dynasty, and attacked Guannei Shandong from Beile Abatai, and was promoted to Meler Ezhen for his military exploits.
In 1**6 years, he followed Prince Duanzhong Boluo to invade Zhejiang and Fujian, and was awarded the second-class Adhahafan and Tuoshalahafan for his merits.
In 1**8, when the puppet Yongshengbo Zheng Cai invaded Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and other places in Fujian, the Tatar government ordered Li Shutai and Jingnan general Chen Tai to suppress the thieves together. When the puppet Yongsheng Bo Zheng Cai was defeated, Li Shutai was defeated and the governor Gu Shichen and others appointed by him.
Zheng Cai, the puppet Yongshengbo, attacked Fuzhou for 14 months, and the siege was lifted because of the arrival of Li Shuitai.
In 1651, Li Shutai was transferred to the Ministry of Officials and was a scholar of the Hongwen Academy.
He was loyal to the great cause of the Tatar government, and wrote a letter requesting that corrupt officials be punished, and Shunzhi obeyed his advice and began to fight corruption.
But soon after, the big tiger fought back, and that Li Shutai was convicted together with Chen Tai, a university scholar.
When Shunzhi decided to fight against the Zheng family in Fujian, which was gaining momentum, he sent the two men out together, hoping that they would still have the outstanding achievements of the Zheng family in the past.
Li Shutai was also an experienced expert in naval warfare, and his 40 warships were mainly large ships, and the journey was downwind, and on the way, he also carefully planned a naval offensive in naval warfare.
After repeated calculations, he set the moment of battle at the ebb tide of the ocean current. Then he came from the north, and it was with the current, with the wind; And if the pirates were fighting, it would be the opposite.
"The wind is fast, the boat is flying in an instant, the upper wind is on the top, the attack is squeezing, and one can be a hundred."
Li Shutai stroked his beard and said, "The deserter came back and reported that there were 2,000 pirates, and there must be hundreds of warships, which should not be underestimated. ”
His subordinates were greatly admired, and they were indeed generals who had fought for many years, and they were really both civil and military.
When the fleet was about to reach the waters around the Songmen Acropolis, a soldier on board shouted: "There is even a sun in the distance!" ”
A bunch of nonsense, there are no two days, and there are no two masters! Where will there be two suns?
Li Shutai put his hands on the pergola and tried to look towards the place where everyone was pointing.
Ah, there really is a thing, round and red, like a red sun floating in the air!
What is that?! Some people say that there is still fire down there, and it seems that there are still people!!
Just when everyone was confused, they could only hear the sound of crackling waves in the sea breeze.
Everyone turned their heads to look again, and saw only two strange ships with no sails, but with two big wheels, which turned out to be sailing against the current and the wind!
What makes sense? Everyone's necks are going to be stretched!
The point is that the two ships can still make a loud noise, shouting in the northern dialect: "You are already our prisoners, put down your swords and guns, raise your hands, and live!" ”
And you can shout repeatedly!
What's even more strange is that the two ships ignored them and kept heading towards the stern of their fleet, so that they didn't have time to prepare to fire!
On the No. 1 ship, Captain Fan Dahai leisurely held the rudder and kept a distance of 100 meters from the team of tattered sea ships.
The No. 1 and No. 2 ships of the sail are now reduced to logistics support ships, it is a pity to dismantle them, and they are kept for sea patrol, which is slower than the propeller type of coal and charcoal, and the speed is still slow.
When Captain Sun Yu asked the headquarters for support, the headquarters sent these two sailboats by the way without thinking about it, and it was still good to be a temporary traffic boat.
Considering the significance of this operation, the headquarters did not use Captain Mingren, but still asked Captain Fan Dahai and Captain Sima Jianguo to come together, and then bring the two Captain Mingren, and they will all be handed over to them in the future.
Captain Fan Dahai looked at this fleet through the window, and thought to himself, can this broken ship be worth the money for cannonballs, and I am afraid that more than three rounds will be at a loss.
His large officer was standing neatly next to him, looking through a telescope.
He said: "Captain Fan, they are all broken boats, and they can't compare with the fishing boats we are waiting for. ”
Captain Fan Dahai smiled and said, "You come to the helm, they want to exchange this broken ship for something, don't you see that we have pulled so many refugees again!" ”
Before they set off, Captain Sun Yu said, "Don't get close to them, and you don't need to make a move. There are so many ships, it just so happens that we all want them, Director Wu Jie said, those old woods are all useful things, I'm afraid they will hurt you! ”
Hurt us? Now Captain Fan Dahai looked at the piles of Tartars on the sea boat, all holding knives and guns in their hands, all of them with fierce faces, but what is the use of this?
Occasionally, a small cannon could be seen on their deck, and it seemed that it was all red rust, and it seemed that they could not solve the rust on the seashore.
At this level, they can take down the entire Ming Continent, damn it, how bad this Ming person is.
Captain Fan Dahai contacted Captain Sima Jianguo and said, "Look at the dhow behind them, can we shoot them down, and it is suitable to sell them to the Ming people as fishing boats when the time comes." ”
Captain Sima Jianguo said: "No, Captain Sun Yu won't let us make a move. ”
"It's okay, look at it, there are ten people above them, and they don't even have a bow and arrow."
The two sailboats had already reached the stern of the flotilla by this time, and saw seven or eight dhows following the flotilla loosely behind.
Captain Fan Dahai reported the basic number and situation of this fleet to Captain Sun Yu via walkie-talkie.
On the other side of the walkie-talkie, Captain Sun Yu said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Okay, the boat has the use of a small boat, and this group of refugees will be resettled, and they will earn it if they can't do it." Then you should be ruthless, you have to shock them, be careful yourself, we can't take care of you for the time being. ”
"Good intentions are rewarded, it's okay!"
