Hailancha was a general who rose after the Manila Navy Purge. In the past, Luo Yishui had the idea of ​​getting rid of the Ming Dynasty's control, so he cultivated many generals who hated the Ming Dynasty among the navy. With Luo Yishui's failure, these people became ghosts under the knife. Even those who did not die were driven out of the army forever. Because Hailancha had close ties with the Ming Dynasty's maritime merchants, he quickly took office and became the main general of the Manila Navy.

After seeing the strong and powerful combat effectiveness of the Ming Navy, and seeing new warships like the Taiping and Dachu, Hailancha decided to serve the Ming Dynasty with all his heart. His attitude was also praised by the senior management of the West Manila Company, which actually controls the entire Manila waters. In this war, he gained command of a fleet in one direction. Although this was just a small fleet of more than 30 warships, being able to be responsible for combat in one direction was itself a affirmation of him.

The plan was determined earlier. Hailancha personally tested the actual situation of the oceans in this area repeatedly in advance, and only then did he feel relieved after confirming that even with his eyes closed, he could accurately grasp the hydrological conditions of the area.

Now that the information has arrived, he is about to attack.

If Yangang cannot attract most of Mattus's troops to the sea, Hailancha, a thirty sailing warship, faced with a large fleet of up to hundreds of warships on the other side, and there seemed to be no other good way except to escape. In fact, Hailancha himself was full of doubts about this combat plan. As a navy general, letting him abandon his warship and go ashore to fight, it seemed that he would not be considered by him.

But this really happened. Helancha was still unable to understand why Mattus suddenly got furious and did this? Didn’t he think about what would happen if a Ming army fleet suddenly attacked?

At this time, Hailancha naturally didn't know that Mattus was red from the first place because of the heavy casualties, and the second was that he was blinded by the wonderful prospects after seizing these artillery weapons described by Qin Li. Greed is always the best help for a person to fall into the abyss. At this time, Mattus had a rough judgment on this Eastern Expedition. He believed that the possibility of the Tiger Dynasty's failure was too high. He was ready to run away after doing this vote.

Of course, he didn't think that the Ming army had a fleet to deal with him. At this point, he was convinced of Qin Li's judgment on this aspect. Under the huge pressure from the Tiger Dynasty in Manila and Pattaya, it was impossible for the Ming army to have the strength to worry about a small place like Yangang.

It was under the bonus of this kind of psychological bonus that Mattus was determined to fight alone. As the battle deepened, Mattus finally captured several injured Ming soldiers. After learning from their mouths about Yangang's real strength, he became even more eager to take Yangang as soon as possible.

His troops were almost ten times more than the other party's strength, and even if he was spitting on his own, he could submerge Yangang.

Human sea tactics and fatigue tactics, Mattus's tens of thousands of troops siege Yangang day and night, successfully pressing Yangang's defense line backwards one layer. Victory seemed to be near, but what annoyed Mattus was that every time the Ming army took a step back, their defensive resilience became even greater, and his casualties had reached a heart-wrenching feeling. No matter who it was, after paying the price of tens of thousands of casualties, the opponent would still show his might in front of him, and he would be angry.

Not only did Mattus lose his mind at this moment, but even his soldiers also lost their mind.

Only Qin Li is still sober.

The Ming army retreated without being in chaos, and it was obvious that it had such an arrangement in advance. What's even more terrifying is that every time the Ming army retreated, they would burn the large warehouses in their originally guarded areas. Until now, Mattus seemed to have occupied a lot of places, but the harvest was zero.

Food supply has become the biggest hidden danger of Mattus's army. If this continues, Qin Li even doubts that even if he wins, he will not get anything.

The battle has reached the third day, and the soldiers can take turns to rest, but Mattus is like a gambler who has devoted all his wealth. Even though his eyes are red, he is still commanding his troops to fight with excitement. Qin Li admires such combat fanaticism.

Mattus himself knew very well that the casualties of his army had reached an unbearable time. Tens of thousands of casualties had reached one-fifth of his entire army. If he was on another battlefield, he would have to consider retreating. But here, he had to endure. He did not dare to let his troops relax. Once the battle was in a standstill, he would breathe and he would be difficult to muster up such courage to fight again.

At this time, the soldiers' anger can be used. Of course, if you continue to fight like this, it would be fine if you win. Once you lose, you will lose everything. If you change a general, you may consider the consequences of failure, but Mattus's personality determines that he must hold on no matter what.

Qin Li yawned and leaned against the wall and closed his eyes. It was dawn again, and a new day was coming. I hope that when the sun rises again, good news will be heard in front of him.

What they didn't know was that in the dark, a fleet of thirty warships approached Yangang like a ghost.

Hailancha was familiar with the route as if he was walking in the backyard of his home. The fire in Yangang was almost reflecting the fire that had soared into the sky, which was also his guiding light. The lighthouses spread across Yangang's coastline made him sail forward with confidence and boldness.

When Hailancha's fleet appeared on the sea surface of Yangang, the spectacular scene in front of him widened his eyes, shocking.

The dense warships filled the docks of Yangang. The warships lying quietly on the sea surface were lambs waiting for him to slaughter in an extremely gentle manner. There were even no guard warships on the outside.

He couldn't understand why the general on the other side made such a stupid move and fought in a foreign country. He actually dared to act so magnificently, keep his head shut and move forward without even caring about his butt being exposed?

"Notify all warships to attack freely, first attack the enemy ships outside, destroy them, and block the warships in the inner circle." A fanatical light flashed in Hailancha's eyes. What a great military achievement that was placed in front of him! Destroy the warships outside, and the warships anchored in the port will become some objects that can only be seen but not used, and become targets that are aimed at and attacked by people in the port. Is there any better way of combat than this?

It would be even better if these warships could be captured. Now, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Manila waters, the prices of large seaships have been rising all the way. After the Ming Dynasty opened up another overseas market, the prices of seaships have remained high. However, whether it is the shipyard of the Ming Dynasty or the shipyard here in Manila, they have been working hard to build warships in the past or two years. If these warships are captured and sold, it will be a great fortune.

Thirty warships were in a semi-arc shape above the sea and headed towards Yangang at high speed.

When the first ray of morning light appeared on the sky, when the guards of the warships of the Tiger Dynasty in Yangang woke up while yawning, they saw the warships flying at high speed with the Sun and Moon Flags flying.

At this moment, their minds were blank and their whole body was also collapsed, because the ones docked at the outermost were all supply ships, and there were only a small number of warships. The problem was that even if the warships were on the periphery, they did not have enough personnel to drive the warships out. Such dense warships docked together, and it was not something that could be done in a short time.

When dozens of enemy ships approached and exposed their sideways, these talents shouted in unison almost at the same time. The sound of drums that called the police immediately rang across the sea.

But at this time, it was obviously too late.

The thunder fire above more than thirty warships began to fire at the same time. Hundreds of burning iron balls fell into the dense warships with clusters of fire. There was basically no need to aim, just smash it into the big pile.

"Fire with the fastest speed, strong crossbow, strong crossbow, hang a gunpowder bag and shoot me. Send a signal to Harin and seal the gap on the right, and no warship can rush out." Hailancha was so excited that he danced.

Although they were not equipped with artillery on their sea ships, gunpowder weapons were still used. They were packs of gunpowder wrapped around the crossbow arrows of powerful crossbows. When they were fired, they ignited long leads and then fired them out.

On the dock, Qin Li's head was still sleeping little by little. In the past few days, he had become accustomed to this kind of explosion. It was not until his room was directly knocked open by an officer to wake Qin Li up.

"Dagong, attack at sea, the Ming Dynasty warships attacked our warships." The officer's face was pale and incoherent.

Mattus's face instantly lost its blood color and rushed out of the room. Qin Li rushed out in panic.

Above the sea, there has been a sea of ​​fire, and countless warships are burning, and from time to time, violent explosions are coming from above the sea.
