Chapter 641: Lu Li is jubilant and arrogant

In the afternoon, the family got together and had a lively meal, and Chang Wei took the time to ask about specific things, and his focus was on the situation in Taiwan and Nanyang. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Yan Ruyu said: "Since the beginning of this year, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, England, France and other countries have made frequent moves in the Nanyang Islands, and they intend to encircle and suppress the pirate sailors of Zheng Zhilong, Zhang Lian, Lin Feng and others. ”

Zhang Lian is a native of Raoping, born in poverty, chivalrous and righteous, and was once a treasurer of Raoyi. At the end of Wanli, he defected to Kapok Village as the deputy owner of the village, at first robbed the rich and helped the poor, and later because the corrupt officials in northern Guangdong were in power, he raised the pole and raised the "White Fan Society" with Zheng Ba and Xiao Wan in Tai Po.

After Zheng Ba's death, he was promoted to be the leader, and his power grew stronger and stronger, and he united with Lin Chaoxi, Xiao Wan, Luo Pao, Yang Shun and other ministries to gather 100,000 people and form an alliance with blood. In May of the forty-sixth year of Wanli, Zhang Lian was proclaimed emperor in Baisong Pass, changed the yuan to "make calendars", called "Flying Dragon Lord", the country name "Flying Dragon", opened the official department, and sealed Luo Pao as the king, Luo Pao is Luo Yun's father.

In November, the Flying Dragon Army divided its troops into three sorties to attack four provinces, including Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangxi and Zhejiang. Dozens of cities were trapped, and the Flying Dragon Army expanded to 200,000 people, shocking Fujian, Guangdong, and Jiangxi provinces.

In the second year, the imperial court sent a large army to encircle and suppress, more than 30,000 people of the Feilong Army were captured, and Zhang Lian led the army to retreat. In the end, he led the rest of the troops to sail out to sea by the Yunxiao River, traveled south, seized Srivijaya Island, established the Flying Dragon Kingdom, and achieved the emperor's dream.

At its peak, the Feilong Kingdom occupied the old port, Johor, Malacca and other places, cultivated for fishing, called Fanbo Chang, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou and overseas Han fishermen all depended on him.

But pirates are always pirates, and after establishing themselves as queens overseas, there was friction between the various ministries, and Luo Pao, the general of the Flying Dragon Kingdom, died in internal strife, and his son Luo Yun was taken to Hirado, Japan, by loyal servants to follow Yan Siqi, the king of the opening stage.

Another Rao Ping person, Lin Feng, is also known as Lin Afeng. When he was a teenager, he participated in the green forest on the sea, and later took Penghu as a base to open up maritime trade, with more than 300 warships and more than 40,000 personnel at its peak.

In the first year of the Apocalypse, he led his troops to capture Shenquan Port, and Houtun Nanao Island attacked Chenghai and defeated the officers and soldiers. In February of the second year, he attacked Chaozhou and Huilai, in April he attacked Qinglan (Wenchang, Hainan), and in June, he was defeated in eastern Guangdong and retreated to the coast of Fujian. In order to avoid the attack of officers and soldiers, Lin Feng led 60 warships and more than 5,000 soldiers to sail south to Luzon.

Maris, who arrived in Manila Bay that month, attacked Manila for the first time and killed the Spanish general in the Philippines, Gointe. After establishing the capital in Lingjiayan Bay, proclaiming himself king, in March of the third year, Spain sent troops to attack Lin Feng, and the Fujian naval division of the Ming court took the opportunity to jointly besiege it.

Lin Feng fought hard in April, and due to the lack of food and equipment, he led the warship to evacuate. In recent years, it has been active in the coastal areas of Taiwan and Guangdong, and the number of warships has increased to 150, and its power has been revived.

"Zhang Lian, Lin Feng, and Zheng Zhilong, three powerful pirate sailors, sometimes cooperate with each other, sometimes fight, and sometimes plunder the coast. Their opponents, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, and local officers and soldiers in Fujian and Guangdong, were originally balanced in power, and neither of them could defeat the other. ”

However, at the end of last year, England and France increased their troops in India, cooperated with the Dutch in Manchuria, and the Portuguese in Sumatra, and defeated Zhang Lian's Flying Dragon Army this summer; the Dutch took advantage of the situation to advance eastward and establish two cities in southern Taiwan, Chichi, and Taiwan, with the intention of driving Zheng Zhilong's troops from the north out of the island of Taiwan; while the Spaniards in the Philippines sent a fleet to encircle and suppress Lin Feng, they imposed martial law in their sphere of influence, and imposed heavy taxes on the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty, and those who did not pay the taxes immediately killed and seized the ships. ”

Therefore, Luo Yun thinks that the situation in Nanyang is precarious, and if he doesn't make a move, it will be ten thousand times more difficult for our Han forces to intervene in Nanyang in the future. ”

Yan Ruyu glanced at Chang Wei fearfully, "At that time, it was too late to ask the master for orders, so the slave asked the second brother for instructions, and then led the fleet south with Cousin Chongwu and asked the master to punish him." ”

Whether it is the imperial court or the private armed forces, the military power can only be in the hands of the leader, no matter how close the people below are, no matter how favored they are, no matter how dangerous the situation is, it is taboo to transfer troops without authorization, even if they make meritorious contributions in the end, they are still guilty, this is a valuable experience derived from the countless blood lessons of the past dynasties, and it is not to blame Yan Ruyu for being apprehensive.

"Naturally, there will be punishment. Chang Wei said without being salty, but his eyes fell on her towering breasts and full buttocks.

Call!

Yan Ruyu let out a sigh of relief and laughed coquettishly, "Thank you for the reward." ”

Xue Qian was stunned and puzzled, and Tang Shuxue even opened her small mouth into a circle, not understanding what the two of them were talking about at all. wanted to defend Yan Ruyu for a few words, but he was afraid of breaking the rules, so he could only sit in a daze.

Whipping is equal to reward! This is Chang Wei and Yan Ruyu's unique secret gameplay.

The two cities of Chi and Taiwan are located in the south of Taiwan, where the coast is tortuous, and there is an inner harbor between the two cities, called the Taijiang River. There are seven connected islands in the southwest of the Taijiang River, Qikun Mountain, each of which is more than a mile apart and is adjacent to each other.

There is a small island at the end of the north line across the sea in the north of a Kun, and the sea surface is called Anping Port in the meantime. The north side of the end of the north line is Luermen Port, and the Taiwan city built by the Dutch is a kun on the west side of the Taijiang River, and the red embedded city is on the east side of the Taijiang River, and they are horns of each other.

In October, Yan Ruyu and Huang Chongwu's 17 ships and 1,000 soldiers of the Qihai Battalion arrived in Penghu, and Luo Yun and General Ma Xin led 20 warships and more than 2,000 people to converge.

The Dutch heard the news and sunk a ship in the harbor to prevent the fleet from landing. The sailors of the Qihai Battalion took advantage of the high tide of the sea to sail the fleet into the Luermen Inland Sea, and Yan Ruyu and Luo Yunqin led the main force to land from Heliao Port, attacked Chichicheng from the flank, and cut off the connection with Taiwan City.

During the battle, the main battleship of the Seven Seas Battalion, the "Zhenjiang", sank the Dutch main battleship "Hector" with powerful side-chord guns.

At the same time, Huang Chongwu defeated the reinforcements of Taiwan City, and although the Dutch with the sunk main battleship had the advantage in numbers, they lost their strategic advantage when they lost sea supremacy, and Chang Wei's theory of sea power was verified for the first time in the war.

The isolated Chichi and Taiwan cities did not give up resistance, because these were two typical European-style Lingbao, and the Dutch were confident that they would defend until the Ming army ran out of ammunition and food, and retreated on their own.

Trenches, lingbao, rifled guns, ironclad warships, these future war trends, Chang Wei often instilled in Yan Ruyu and Huang Chongwu, therefore, the unbreakable line of defense in the eyes of the Dutch is not in their eyes.

The two cities of Chichi and Taiwan are composed of eight fortresses and eight triangular forts, on which a three-zhang thick parapet wall is built, and the distance between each two forts is just the maximum effective range of the smoothbore gun, which can provide crossfire and greatly enhance the defense of the fortress.

The Ming army first cut off the water distance outside the second city, and then, using the method of earthwork, dug the first parallel trench about 400 steps away from the fortress, and in this excavation, the Ming army did not suffer any casualties.

Subsequently, the Ming army continued to dig towards the fortress based on the first parallel trench. The excavation process was as follows: first, a sapper carrying a wicker basket dug forward about half of the earth, using a wooden shield as a cover, while throwing the earth into the basket. When this was done, the sapper continued to crawl forward while the other sappers deepened and widened the trench that had just been dug and reinforced it with bunker baskets and bundles of firewood until the soldiers walking in the trench could be completely covered.

When the trench reaches a certain length, the infantry enters the trench in order to protect the sappers and prevent the defenders from attacking and destroying. By the time it was completed, the trenches were more than a foot wide enough to allow artillery to pass.

In the process of digging forward, the Ming army adopted a zigzag trench excavation, often changing the direction of the excavation, so that the defenders' artillery could only hit the chest wall, so as to avoid the defenders' vertical fire and reduce losses.

Two days later, the Ming army approached the second parallel trench about 200 paces from the fortress through the zigzag approaching trench. Although the defenders responded with artillery bombardment and out-of-town attacks, they did little to hinder the Ming army. The twenty guns in front of the defenders were able to kill and wound only ten Ming soldiers per day, and in the first five days of the siege, the total casualties of the Ming army were only fifty.

It was not until the completion of the second parallel trench that Huang Chongwu ordered the artillery to enter the parallel trench. Three days later, at dawn, the Ming army began shelling. During the siege, the Ming army made extensive use of ricochet-shot tactics.

That is, when firing, a low-elongation trajectory is chosen, so that the shell bounces in all directions after hitting the target area, thus posing a threat to nearby personnel and machinery. During the siege, shells jumped directly over the breastwork and fired from the side into the front of the bastion or triangular fort, killing and destroying artillery. Such artillery units were also used to carry out longitudinal fire on individual sections of concealed roads.

From the time the first parallel trench was dug up, the battle took only fifteen days. During this period, the Ming army lost 60 killed and 200 wounded, of which two craftsmen were killed and seven were wounded.

At this point, the Seven Seas Battalion completely drove the Dutch out of the island of Taiwan, ending the Dutch East India Company's sole power in the Ming Dynasty. This war also made Luo Yun's power soar tenfold, and his personnel reached 20,000, and the two cities of Chiji and Taiwan also fell into his hands, in order to thank Huang Chongwu and Yan Ruyu for their assistance, the two cities were renamed "Chongwu" and "Ruyu".

Chang Wei sighed, "Only 300 casualties took two Lingbao, good, well done!"

Yan Ruyu flattered: "It's all good for the master." ”

Tang Shuxue had a different opinion, "Sister Ruyu, don't be modest, no matter how well the teacher teaches, the students can't learn well, I didn't learn well before I was exploited by traitors." ”

"That's good!" Chang Wei completely agreed, "No matter how wonderful the art of war is, the general must use it flexibly, Ruyu, you and Chongwu are both good generals." Shu Xue is mainly not married yet, and after waiting for the door to let the master train well in the boudoir, it will definitely be no problem. ”

"Oh, it's so annoying, it's not serious at any time, and you still don't change your true character as a thief after being such a big official!"

Hehehe!

After laughing, Chang Wei said again: "Although he won, Luo Yun also has to guard against Zheng Zhilong, these pirates don't pay attention to faith, they only recognize fists and silver." ”

"What the master said is that when we left, they were building the three Lingbao of 'Luoyun', 'Ma Xin' and 'Qihai', and when they were completed, the five Lingbao were connected in a star shape, with a port inside, a fleet and a fort outside, and it would become a group of strong fortresses!"

After talking for an hour or two, after figuring everything out, Chang Wei's long-awaited boudoir fun finally began.

Seeing the naked Xue Qian and Yan Ruyu being stacked on the bed by Chang Wei, Tang Shuxue was ashamed and couldn't wait to get into the cracks in the ground, "You, you, you, what a thief, Sister Qian, Sister Ruyu, how can you be like this...... Lewd ~, shame to death. ”

Yan Ruyu vigorously broke Xue Qian's white and tender buttocks~ flap, and replied inarticulately: "Why can't you be lewd ~ in front of your husband in the boudoir." ”

Xue Qianhuan ~ moaned happily ~ groaned, "Sister Shuxue, in the future, you will also become this kind of ***." ”

Tang Shuxue, who couldn't stay any longer in the "......", could only flee from the door.

Behind her, the *** sound grew louder and louder. (To be continued.) )
