Chapter 213 Captured Half of the Fleet The Alliance of Brothers
Another great victory.
Li Yan rode to the north wharf of Wuhu Island, followed by a large group of officers and servants such as Lin Wu and Wang Chong. The dock was bustling, and hundreds of soldiers who were ambushing here were surrounding a large group of prisoners with bows and crossbows. The spiral captives were all removed at this time, and even their armor and battle robe were forced to take off, trembling in the night wind with only their white middle robe. Among the countless firelights, Li Yan saw Feng Ming at a glance.
At this time, like other prisoners, his gorgeous armor and sword were gone, and he was a white silk mid laner. However, the mid laner is no longer white. It is dyed with many black shoe prints of different sizes, with patterns on it and shoe sizes on it. It is obvious that it is the only military shoes designated by the Clothing Workshop in Shamen Town.
Countless torches shone the dock like daytime. Feng Ming not only had shoe prints on his clothes, but also had a shoe print on his face, half of his face was swollen, and the corners of his mouth and eyebrows were broken and bleeding. Until now, Feng Ming still couldn't figure out what was going on. They left the palace queen Zhang Lie and headed straight to Wuhu Island with the heart of a dead fellow Taoist dying. Seeing the dock on Wuhu Island, looking at the lights on the dock and the guards on the arrow tower, he suddenly felt like he was escaping from death.
He was not willing to stay on the sea for a moment, and rushed to the dock with the defeated generals. The soldiers on duty on the dock came forward with a smile on their faces and even served them tea and water. After drinking a large bowl of water, Feng Ming no longer asked for Wuliangye. He was about to go back to the fort to take a good hot bath and wash away the bad luck, but unexpectedly, countless soldiers suddenly surged out from all over the world, holding cold crossbows, bows and arrows, spears and shields in their hands, completely surrounding them.
An officer didn't understand the situation, and just cursed, and immediately said that he was nailed through several crossbow arrows and turned into a hornet's nest. At this time, Feng Ming sat in the cold mud with a dull face, not even caring about his appearance. In front of the group of soldiers who were like tigers and wolves, if he dared to say more, he would immediately be beaten. If he dared to move around, he would also be beaten. At first, he shouted to see Li Guofu, the general of Wuhubao Town, shouting that he was Feng Ming, but it was useless except for kicking one after another. Now he finally recognized it. He honestly held his head in his hands, half-squatted and half-sitted in the mud.
He has not yet figured out what happened to all this, whether Li Guofu betrayed him or Li Guan occupied Wuhu Island. Looking at the appearance of the soldiers, they were all unfamiliar faces that they had never seen before, not like the people from Wuhu Castle. But the weapons and armor of these people were standard standards of the court. These people were soldiers, not bandits, but he did not understand where the soldiers came from.
Li Guan just glanced at Feng Ming from a distance, and was too lazy to look at this person anymore. He first walked up to the dock and walked towards the eight captured warships tied to the sea of the dock. He stepped over the springboard and climbed the iron armored sea falcon of Changshan. He touched the iron armored on both sides of the above, and the huge and hideous iron pierced mouth. He couldn't help but be excited. Such an advanced warship has now become his own.
Feng Ming, who was squatting in the captive group, finally saw Li Yan and his subordinates. He remembered very clearly the people in Shamen Town. When he first met, he was beaten up by Li Yan and the generals. He still felt a vague pain when he remembered it. He widened his eyes, and he couldn't believe that the person who ambushed him was Li Yan.
Li Yan appeared here, who was the person in Tieshan Harbor?
Suddenly, a light of inspiration flashed through his mind, remembering his real mission, and came to sweep away a mysterious pirate force that might traverse the Liao Sea. It was the powerful pirate fleet that was suspected by Feng Zhang and the Feng clan of Duli Town that had robbed and captured Mao Island. Feng Zhang always suspected that Li Yan and this pirate force had secretly colluded with him, and then robbed Mao Island together. It was just his instinctive suspicion, but now, all this finally became a fact in front of Feng Ming.
Li Yan of Donkey Ball, all this was a trap that had been planned long ago, from the beginning. He deliberately made a sound to fight the one-eyed dragon pirates, which led them to be fooled. Li Yan deliberately appeared at the Old Sow Reef and then suddenly disappeared. At this time, the mysterious pirate suddenly broke through the Tieshan Mountain Village of the One-eyed Dragon and deliberately let several pirates go to report the message. They were all deceived by Li Yan, thinking that Li Yan was the one who attacked Tieshan. However, they did not expect that it would be another group of people. When he rushed to Tieshan, Li Yan jumped out and quietly seized the empty Wuhu Island.
But now he figured out all this, it was too late. He sat dejectedly on the ground, his heart was ashamed. Even if Li Guan didn't kill him, he wouldn't dare to go back to Da Xie Fort again, and he would be dead when he returned.
Soon, Shamen soldiers came forward to tie all the prisoners' hands with cowhide sticks, and then tied them up with hemp ropes into a large string, like a bunch of grasshoppers, and finally rushed to a large vacant warehouse in the city like sheep to be imprisoned. All the prisoners were uneasy, not knowing what fate would be waiting for them.
Not long after Li Yan watched the eight captured warships one by one at the dock, Meghan and his team rushed back to the dock with three captured warships. Then Huang Huzi led hundreds of large and small warships, with eleven captured warships and countless spoils.
The dock was completely jubilant, and everyone was excited as they watched the huge battleship become a spoil.
Wang Chong stood in front of Li Guan with the compiled statistics table, his face full of red light, and his voice trembled loudly: "In this battle, our army defeated the enemy and wiped out all the enemy fleet and the pirate fleet. According to the count, our army sunk a total of 12 large and small warships, thirteen pirate warships, and a total of 25 warships. Our army captured 18 enemy ships, and three enemy ships surrendered, and captured a total of 21 enemy ships."
"The sinking of enemy ships includes one Wuyalou ship, one three-story big dou ship, one iron armored sea falcon, one ordinary sea falcon, one other carriage, two boats and seven yachts. The ones captured include one big dou ship, three iron armored sea falcon, three ordinary sea falcon, seven boats and five yachts."
Every time the officers below could not help but exclaim, clapped their hands and applauded. Before the war started, no one expected to win such a victory. He didn't even think about victory, let alone annihilated the entire fleet and the pirate fleet. In one battle, half of the enemy ships were seized. This is even more unacceptable. It is difficult to seize the sea combat, either the enemy ship escaped or the sinking. Generally, only the enemy ships can be captured, but once the battle is carried out, the damage of both sides is often to kill ten thousand enemies and damage eight thousand themselves.
"This battle!" Wang Chongqi was very excited. In the end, he had changed from reciting to singing loudly, with a loud voice, and a hint of sharpness, like a singing opera. "In this battle, our army wiped out a total of 873 Daxiezhai Army, including three officers above the lieutenant, all of whom were above the head of the generals, and twenty-one officers above the tee. Another 354 pirates were wiped out. A total of 1,217 enemy troops were wiped out."
"The prisoner of Da Xie Village was more than 1,800 soldiers and horses, including more than 30 officers in the enemy ship, Yu Hou Feng Ming. In addition, Zheng Mo led 600 pirates to surrender, and Zhang Lie, the deputy general of Heishan Fort, led three warships, 300 soldiers and 200 crew members to surrender. In addition, when our army salvaged the enemy's troops in Tieshan Bay, we rushed to the injured commander of the enemy ship, Wu Qian, the general of Heishan Fort, and he had persuaded nearly 800 other soldiers who fell into the water to surrender to our troops."
Li Guan had previously obtained a result of the interrogation of Feng Ming and other prisoners from Li Wei, and roughly knew the whole battle of Tieshan. He did not expect that Wu Qian was lucky to be undead. In addition to Zhang Lie, two military officers at the level of town generals had surrendered.
"How are our army's casualties?" Li Yan was already prepared to bear the heavy losses in his heart after achieving such a great victory.
"The casualties are minor, and this battle was very smooth." Huang Huzi interrupted and said with a laugh. "Compared with the result of this battle, we are not considered a damage at all. In the past, when a merchant ship was robbed, dozens of casualties would be killed. But this time, the entire fleet was killed in one fell swoop, and the damage in attacking the Iron Mountain Bandits' Cave was less than a hundred of them killed in battle and seriously injured. There is no need to mention the minor injuries. They were bandaged by Brother Duan's men, and now they are all alive, and there is no problem with another battle."
There was no damage to Zhendonghai, and Megan and Julie were even less injured. Zhang Lie surrendered directly, and they had never even beaten. Li Guan was also slightly injured. In short, they destroyed Feng Zhang's squadron and a pirate fleet, annihilated more than a thousand enemies, two thousand prisoners, and more than a thousand surrenders. However, the damage they paid together was less than two hundred people.
The result made everyone look incredible, and they all looked at Li Yuan. The battle was so smooth that it could be said that it was not because of the advantage of military strength or the stronger fleet, but because of excellent strategies. They dug holes step by step and waited for the opponent to jump, one by one, one by one, and one by one, and finally they were swallowed up in one bite.
"I don't think the enemy ships captured this time are as good as this. The ten ships captured in Tieshan Port will be returned to Zhendonghai. The three ships captured by Meghan and the eight ships captured on Wuhu Island will be belonged to us. What do you think?" Although Li Yan was also envious of the fighting ship and the Iron Armored Sea Falcon, he could not do the matter of not having the horse run away and not letting the horse eat grass. Zhendonghai helped a huge help this time and wanted to continue to maintain the current relationship. Li Yan felt that it would be better to divide the interests as fair as possible.
Huang Beard shook his head, "This is not good."
Li Guanwei was stunned for a moment and immediately said, "If the Huang family feels uncomfortable, then let's adjust it. Otherwise, I will pull out two more ships for you, how about it?"
Huang Beard shook his head and smiled, "General Ji Yu misunderstood what we mean. We don't mean to be insatiable. Regarding the warships, the third and fourth brothers and I discussed it, and we unanimously thought that Ji Yu had completely turned aside with Feng Zhang. Therefore, Shamen Town needs to be strong urgently. Our idea is that we only need four warships and assault ships and four yachts for these twenty-one captured warships. We are pirates, and we don't have any chance to fight this battle at sea. Pirates pay attention to speed, fast traffic speed, and fire protection and arrows. I think we are good at using it. We already have one of the tall fighting ships, so we don't want it. This ship cannot run fast and is not suitable for us. The Black Skeleton rarely comes out, so let's keep it for you to use it."
Li Guan was really surprised and moved. He didn't expect Zhendonghai to be like this. After thinking about it, Li Guan smiled and said, "Since the care and love of several leaders, I will be disrespectful. There will be a report in the future. But you can't let you suffer such a loss. Let's do this, and you will be able to pull out another sea falcon and a boat for you. Don't refuse, otherwise I will be shameless."
Megan smiled and said, "Oh, why are you pushing me? We are all our own family now. The general gives you it, and you can accept it. Anyway, if you need it in the future, I will ask you guys and the people who bring the boat back to help."
Huang Huzi and Li Guan both laughed at the same time. Yes, after this battle, what else is untrustworthy between Shamen Town and Zhendonghai?
"Ji Yu, the brothers who were injured in this battle are afraid that they can no longer make a living at sea. They proposed to live in Shamen Town with the Bai Dang family. What do you think?" Huang Huzi said with some emotion. In the past, many disabled brothers would not wash their hands and go ashore easily, because in doing so, although Zhendonghai would continue to take care of their lives, there was no guarantee. They now proposed to go to Shamen Town, but they actually had a fancy to the soldiers' disability pension system of the Shamen Town Army. Soldiers in Shamen Town will have pension allowances when they were killed and injured, especially those who were disabled and left the team, and they would arrange some suitable leisure work according to their physical conditions, and there will be continuous subsidies in the future, which is enough for them to live a peaceful life. The pirates also knew about these time with Shamen Town soldiers, and they yearned for it.
Li Guan pondered, and Huang Beard hurriedly said, "If it is not suitable, forget it."
"No, it's not inappropriate." Li Chan said, "I was just thinking about how to arrange the future lives of these brothers. The brothers in Zhendonghai are our brothers in Shamen Town. Today, I, Li Chan, promised here that the brothers in Zhendonghai will be old, sick and disabled, as long as they voluntarily, they can wash water and move their family to my Shamen Town to live. I will arrange their work appropriately and have the same monthly discharge and disability allowance as our soldiers in the town. I will do my best to do this, and if I violate this oath, I will kill thousands of arrows in the future."
The pirates in Zhendonghai have now almost become a foreign aid of Li Guan. If they were not temporarily controlled by some current conditions, they could have gone further. Li Guan was unwilling to push these forces away because of some trivial matters.
Huang Beard was overjoyed and full of relief. He also raised his hand and pressed it on his chest and said solemnly, "I will repay you with my peach. My Huang Beard also swears here today that Zhendonghai will always be an alliance brother of Shamen Town in the future. As long as Shamen Town is summoned, I will help you all. If you violate this oath, I will die at the sea to argue, and will sink to the bottom of the sea and not be reincarnated."
Chapter completed!
