Chapter 124: The defeat is set
Chapter 124
On the battlefield, especially in the melee, the command system of both sides no longer exists. What determines the victory or defeat of both sides is morale. Or the beliefs of both sides, who is willing to fight for this battle to the end?
In this regard, the official army has the advantage.
The orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty for 200 years did not have any psychological burden to let the official army serve the imperial court. Not to mention, most of the official army was not the original guard army, but the soldiers recruited one after another after the Japanese riots, and most of them had seen Japanese pirates rampant. Some of their relatives even died at the hands of Japanese pirates, which was a national hatred and family hatred.
In addition, after Zhou Mengchen arrived, he also strengthened the treatment of the army that could fight. In the most difficult time, even if the silver was deducted from the gap between his teeth, the cost of the two or three thousand troops was not cut off.
Although Liu Xian's troops had just been transferred here, Zhou Mengchen also rewarded them heavily after they arrived.
Many large armies of the Ming Dynasty are like this. As long as the money is given in place, they still have some combat effectiveness. Of course, the military troops that are bad to the end are not included.
The more that determine the will to fight is on the generals, and there is no need to say about Yu Dayou. As long as there is still hope for victory, Yu Dayou will not retreat even if he fights his life. Lu Tong, Tang Kekuan, and Liu Xian are all generals and will not retreat easily.
In today's battle, they can grit their teeth and fight to the end.
But the Japanese pirates are different.
Most of the Japanese pirates who led the naval battle were from the Ming Dynasty, and the real Japanese were not in the initiative. When they fought with the court, they might not be without anxiety. Even if there were no generals, there might not be no soldiers below. After all, they were all grown up under the management of the Ming Dynasty. Although some people had a deep feud with corrupt officials of the Ming Dynasty, most of them were just for money.
There is a lack of confidence.
Not to mention, they each have their own selfish intentions. After all, Wang Zhi is the leader of the pirates, not the boss of the pirates. These pirates fight for their own interests. But when they find that the profits they imagine are not very good, they have to do something else.
For example, how to preserve strength.
After all, in today's battle, no matter the outcome, their lives will still be passed. We can't throw all our capital here. What should we do in the future?
What's more, if one plays a qi in one go, two loses and three exhausts.
Today, Japan came to ambush the official army. As a result, they found that the official army was prepared, which had exhausted their courage a lot. Then they found that the official army was actually difficult to deal with, and they were beaten and chased for hundreds of miles. This lost a lot of courage.
Now that Wang Zhi launched a counterattack, he had the last courage.
With a sudden explosion, they saw Wang Zhi's ship being blown up. In fact, it was not Wang Zhi's ship, but Wang Zhi's ship was just one of these five large ships. It was often difficult to distinguish on the battlefield. When they saw a ship exploded, they took it for granted that he thought this Wang Zhi's ship.
Perhaps it is one of the signs that these Japanese pirates cannot persist.
In short, this explosion forced many Japanese pirates who were still fighting to make their own plans.
Xie He is one of them. The battlefield where Xie He is located is not the core battlefield. At this moment, he brought his troops to fight with pirates from Fujian and Lu Tong's troops. Seeing this situation, Xie He's mind was full of trouble.
He immediately called a few people around him and said, "Everyone, I'm afraid I'll be sad at this level. If we continue to fight like this, we will only have no other use of the disciples besides the minions below. And after today, it may not be the world of Wang Zhi. The court cannot completely control the sea, and then this seat at sea will be held."
Having said that, I can't understand it any more.
Xie He has always been the best among the Wangzhi Group. Wang Zhi sometimes also respectfully calls Mr. Xie. Moreover, Xie He did not leave Wang Zhi and had no other place to go. Wang Zhi is from Huizhou, but the most people in the sea are from Fujian.
Xie He has a long-term qualification and has a wide relationship. Now he is not mingling with Wang Zhi. He can’t find someone to accept him when he goes back to Fujian? Even if he can’t, he can go to Nanyang. Although Fujianese in the world cannot be said to be a family, it is okay to take care of each other overseas.
In this era, Fujianese already had many strongholds overseas. Of course, we can't remember it later. It can even be said that after the Japanese riots, Fujian began to immigrate to the outside world for hundreds of years, so that Chinese overseas is Minnan.
Xie He couldn't survive on the coast, and in the end there were quite a few people going to Southeast Asia.
Xie He could see clearly that someone had a boat in his hand and was not in the Ming Dynasty, where could he be the king? After all, in this era, how many people are there in the world with national strength like the Ming Dynasty? Even if most places are not borderless, the combat effectiveness of local countries cannot be compared with the Ming Dynasty.
After Xie He made up his mind, he slowly left the battlefield.
There were about two or three hundred ships in the hands of the Fujian leader who contacted Xie He, and many of them could not be withdrawn. This occupied almost one-sixth of the troops under Wang Zhi. They retreated from the battlefield and couldn't help but not attract attention.
What Xie He did was doomed to defeat Wang Zhi.
When Wang Zhi saw Xie He withdrawing, he almost couldn't stand steadily. Mao Haifeng quickly supported him and said, "Entertainment Father, you have to hold on."
Wang Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "At this time, what's the use of saying this? Change the boat quickly."
Mao Haifeng said: "Change the boat?"
Wang Zhi said: "My boat is so conspicuous. No matter who Yu Dayou lets go, they will not let them go. I also arranged for the dead soldiers. Today is the time when Wang Zhi was buried in the sea. I have been in my life for half of my life. How could I never have thought about the result today? If you want, go to Nanyang with me and hide your identity from now on. Be a local tyrant. If you don't want to, you can take away my remaining tribes. From then on, you will think I am dead."
"You choose."
Mao Haifeng said: "I will go wherever my adoptive father goes. What should I do if my adoptive mother and her second brother?"
Wang Zhi said: "I haven't told them these things that if they settle down in the future, they may not be able to secretly take them over. Now we are going to Nanyang. Although I have made some preparations, I don't know what the situation is. Let them think we are dead. The head of the Da Nei family is a kind person. He will treat them kindly for my sake. Moreover, they are not suitable for life at sea, so let them live peacefully in Japan."
In fact, Wang Zhi didn't know what kind of outcome he would have when he went to Nanyang. He was ready to die.
The reason why he did this was because he knew that he was here in the East China Sea, and even Japan, had no way to survive. After today's war, the court would definitely take him down as the center of gravity. However, he suffered too much strength and had to face the challenges of countless enemies at sea. Even the Japanese who had the strongest relationship with him would abandon him. Because the Japanese wanted maritime trade, and Wang Zhi's existence was already an obstacle to maritime trade.
Only by going to the barren land of Southeast Asia can one seek life in death.
It is also his only way to live.
He left his wife and children in Japan, and he also had the possibility of his bloodline spreading in the world.
Mao Haifeng is loyal to Wang Zhi, and has the current status than Mao Haifeng. Both of them were promoted by Wang Zhi. Although they are not biological father and son, they are more emotional than biological father and son. Mao Haifeng said: "Entertainment father is away quickly. I will cut off the back."
Wang Zhi said: "My son is careful. If we father and son cannot live together today, I would rather die together."
Wang Zhi knew that he also needed someone who could fight in Nanyang. Although Mao Haifeng was repeatedly defeated in the Ming Dynasty, it did not mean that Mao Haifeng's army was not good. It can only be said that the enemy Mao Haifeng met was too strong. Wang Zhi knew this very well. Mao Haifeng might not be able to face the generals of the Ming Dynasty, but he was able to deal with the indigenous people of Nanyang.
Mao Haifeng didn't know what Wang Zhi was thinking, and he was slightly moved and said, "Please don't worry, I will protect myself. Moreover, Yu Dayou is not that easy to deceive. I must be behind. The adoptive father will go first and I will arrive later."
