Chapter 156: Water and Land Encirclement
Chapter 156
I don’t know who brought a water bag. Qi Jimei took it and drank it all in one go. Then I saw that the soldiers under his command were looking at him. Qi Jimei said loudly: "What are you looking at? Have you rested? After resting, you start working. Build your dock first and let the big ship stop. Put on your clothes and show them one by one. I am not a little lady. Yes, who is the one from that hundred household, and they all take off their butts. Who is his hundred household? If you don’t wear it, I want to show you so much, so I will hang you upside down on the head of Hangzhou City. Let your hundred households accompany you."
The tone of the soldiers below should not be too elegant. If they are too elegant, the people below are not used to it. In this way, Qi Jimei yelled and scolded. The entire battalion began to move, guarding the prisoners and building a wharf. After a busy day, he took the remaining battalions to the island. Qi Jiguang came here to take charge.
Without saying a word, Qi Jiguang assigned tasks and sent scouts to investigate in Shen'ao. He was preparing to drive a way out on Nan'ao Island, and there were a large number of firearms and cannons. He was preparing to attack Nan'ao. He thought to himself: "We have to look at Yu Dayou's now."
Qi Jiguang knew about the news that the loss here was. I think I already know about it when I came to Shenzhen Australia.
I think Wu Ping would not sit still and wait for death. If Wu Ping escaped, a Nanao Island would have no value at all.
Qi Jimei was a little disappointed because after Qi Jiguang arrived here, he did not say a word about the previous battle, nor did he say it was bad, as if he had never fought. Qi Jimei seemed to have a good grades, and she was eager to see the parents' report card, but she didn't want the parents to not read it. She was leaving disappointed, but Qi Jiguang stopped him. After the others finished, she said, "This battle was good." After hearing his brother's performance, Qi Jiguang wanted him to have a meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots.
Although you must be brave in war, bravery is not so brave, it is lack of intention.
Qi Jimei heard from her elder brother that she was so happy that her bones were lighter, and she felt fluttering.
Qi Jiguang asked, "How do you feel?"
Qi Jimei said, "I feel----" He was silent for a while and said, "I'm a little scared."
When Qi Jiguang heard this, he laughed and said, "Okay, okay, okay, just be afraid. After this battle, you go to the navy. Follow General Yu and be obedient. He will not treat you badly."
Qi Jimei was a little confused and said, "Brother, I think I'm afraid. Are you so happy?"
Qi Jiguang said: "Even if you grasp the factors on the battlefield, you will never be able to grasp them completely, so you are never sure when you go to the battlefield. Knowing that awe is the beginning of becoming a general. Second brother, you have finally gotten enlightened."
As Qi Jiguang expected.
On the night of the Longan Sand Battle, it was almost fifteenth, and the moon was very good. The moonlight was going to sprinkle on the sea like white sand, as if at a glance, the entire sea surface could be seen clearly. But in fact, even if you widen your eyes and look at it close, it was just a ball of black.
Even the black shape is not real.
In fact, night flight is very dangerous. If it is not a last resort, he will not be able to sail at night. The Battle of Longyan Sand has eliminated all the luck of Wu Ping. At this moment, Wu Ping had no other ideas. It was just a thirty-six strategies to go. The government army has already reached a place to settle on the island. It is only a matter of time before Nan'ao Island falls.
Wu Ping was going to fight with Yu Dayou again during the day. Moreover, the ports between the two sides were so close that Wu Ping knew with his toes that he would never be able to escape during the day. He could only sail at night.
Fortunately, Wu Ping is very familiar with the hydrology here. Even at night, he is confident that he can let the fleet leave the port smoothly. As long as he stays until dawn, the sky will be high and the sea will be wide.
But he never expected that he had not left the port yet. Suddenly, a collision sound came from afar.
At first, Wu Ping thought that the ship was improperly manipulated and the two ships collided together. This was not a big deal. After all, it was like this when sailing at night. It was normal for a little problem. But he never expected that he heard an explosion.
The explosion sounded like the beginning, and countless fires burst into full fire in an instant. The very solid shells carried a lot of heat at the moment they were fired. The entire iron ball was burned red. The moment they came out, it was particularly eye-catching. However, the shells flew through the air at high speed. Under the cooling of the air, the burning iron ball quickly returned to its true colors. So in the dark, it showed a special feeling. First, the red shells rushed out, and then quickly turned black. It seemed to be invisible in the night, and it was impossible to see where the shells landed.
Countless shells hit the fleet, or were hit in chaos.
At this moment, Wu Ping would never think that this was a traffic accident in which two ships collided. He cursed: "Yu Dayou has you. You actually came here too."
Yes, the heroes have similar views.
Yu Dayou also felt that Wu Ping knew this move, so he got stuck.
In fact, it is not difficult to think of this, but how to do it. I have also mentioned the problem of night sailing before. Compared to Wu Ping's entrenchment in Nan'ao for many years, I have a very good understanding of the water conditions here. Yu Dayou just came here, and in just a few days, Yu Dayou can make the fleet familiar with the water conditions, which is better than Wu Ping. This is the terrifying existence.
However, Wu Ping did not expect that Yu Dayou also had a big sweat here.
He hesitated for a long time about this matter. In fact, he wanted to approach Wu Ping in the battle a few days ago. He said before that there are some small islands outside of Shenzhou, and these islands cannot even be called islands. At most, they are larger reefs and there is not much vegetation on them.
Yu Dayou was preparing to occupy this place, leaving some people and artillery as a warning, and even leaving some ships to garrison, treating this small stronghold as a thorn for Wu Ping to leave the port.
But I never expected that the two sides would collide so carefully.
Yu Dayou and the generals of the Navy of the Government Army were also shocked. Fortunately, the government army was more organized and trained better than pirates. Although in the dark, no one knew who was where, and there was only one approximate direction and began to bombard violently.
Of course, it is hard to say that these soldiers were not shocked and instinctively fired fire.
But firing random artillery is better than pirates. Today, both sides are like cats who are carefully preparing to catch mice. When they meet, they will kick off and jump on the spot. On Yu Dayou's side, no matter whether they are brave or counterattacking, they will at least fight back as soon as possible.
When the pirates encounter such a thing, they get confused in an instant. The first thing they think of was to be ambushed by the official army. Run away quickly, and the fellow Taoist will die.
The original order was disrupted in an instant. Where can I run away? I can only play bumper boats.
It is better to say that it is a mess until dawn rather than a melee.
Both sides did not listen to the firing of artillery in the middle of the night, especially the government army. They almost wiped out the ammunition. However, there was no result. When they saw it during the day, many ships sank, but most of them collided with each other, or had tentacles, etc. The ones sunk by the shells did not see them.
Maybe it has sunk, so I didn't find it.
After dawn, Wu Ping saw the situation in Shen'ao Bay and felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Wu Ping knew that there were not many losses in personnel, not many deaths, and the ships were not much lost, and the ships were a drop in the bucket. But even so, a melee yesterday took Wu Ping's life. Because of a chaos, the waterway in Shenzhen and Australia was blocked.
The waterway in Shenzhen and Australia is not narrow. It is easy to sail several ships at the same time. But it cannot withstand such tossing. As countless ships collided and sunk, the waterway was blocked strongly. Some places seemed to be fine, and it is not ruled out that the ship had sunk below.
In fact, such obstacles cannot be cleaned up. They can be cleaned up in about ten days and half a month. But will Qi Jiguang give him ten days and half a month?
Of course not.
It is estimated that before the place is cleared out, his neck will no longer be around his neck. How could Wu Ping be calm at this moment?
