Chapter 283 Arrival of the Main Fleet
The pirate retreated hastily, just as quickly as when he came, and soon disappeared without a trace.However, thousands of corpses and dozens of stranded warships testify that a fierce battle took place here not long ago.

Deng Qianlong was still worried that Zheng Zhilong would kill his carbine, so he docked a little to replenish supplies, and continued to wander around the periphery of Ishigaki Island with the fleet, always on alert.Among these ships, the fastest cruiser, the Constitution, followed Zheng Zhilong's convoy retreating to the southwest from a distance, and tracked it until it saw the outline of Yizhou before returning safely.

The defenders of Ishigaki Island began to clean up the bodies of pirates killed in battle on the coast, as well as the ships stranded on the beach.For the weapons and ships left by the pirates, these fortress troops with muskets, or some mountain battalion soldiers equipped with more advanced Dreiser rifles, didn't take a look at them at all.The swords and spears that pirates regard as treasures are piled up in the corner like garbage, waiting to be shipped to the factory for smelting and re-smelting into iron blocks.

The stranded vessel was towed ashore.If the hull is still intact or there is no overall damage, it will be left by the defenders of the island to serve as fishing boats or small boats.If it is severely damaged, it will be dismantled into eight pieces, and the planks will be used to repair warships damaged in battle, which can be regarded as waste utilization.

"This time your team fought very bravely. You successfully sniped the pirates and killed 34 pirates. I will record a credit for you in the battle report." Ling Tong commended a small officer.

"It is my lord's appreciation that I can change from a handyman to a soldier of the Liao army. Fighting for the honor of our Liao army is what I should do!" The little leader of the assassin stood up straight and replied bluntly.

"Well, keep working hard. Our fleet will go south soon. Ishigaki Island is the most important supply point for our fleet. The mission of our special force is to defend this stronghold for the fleet!" Ling Tong said, " When this task is completed and the sea trade route is settled, we will have the opportunity to be transferred back to the mainland of southern Liaoning, and it is not impossible to be promoted and raise the salary at that time."

"Yes, I will do my best to live up to your lord's expectations!" The little leader of the assassin puffed out his chest.

Not only the bastion troops were cleaning up the battlefield around the bastion, but the mountain battalion in the dense forest was also burying the corpses of the pirates who died in the dense forest.To deal with these corpses, the soldiers of the mountain camp usually buried them on the spot, making them the fertilizer of this dense forest, ashes to ashes to ashes.

"It may be the first battle, and the soldiers are still nervous. We have suffered dozens of casualties in this battle. You must know that our mountain camp is full of more than 1000 people. The enemy in the future may be more familiar than us. The natives of the local mountain forest are fighting on their territory! If we continue at this speed, our mountain camp will be empty sooner or later.” The commander of the mountain camp gathered all the soldiers of the mountain camp, but he was not so satisfied with the result of this battle.

"Also this time we were in the dark and the enemy was in the open. We still had Dresser rifles that were more advanced than theirs and even our ordinary infantry. We were even counterattacked by them once in the middle, and the overall front retreated about 50 meters." The commander of the mountain battalion The official said with hatred.

"But sir, after they knew there were people in our dense forest, they reorganized their forces to attack the dense forest. There are a large number of them, and our front line should retreat." A mountain battalion leader said.

"It would be nice if we had a rifle that could accurately snipe enemy generals. Although the rate of fire and range of the Dreiser rifle have been greatly improved, the accuracy is still not enough." Another mountain battalion leader complained.

"I said you should be content. The military master has already distributed some of the most advanced rifles developed to our mountain camp. The treatment is the same as that of the guard camp. It shows that we attach great importance to our mountain camp. What else do you want? Do you want the military leader to develop a rifle for you that can shoot enemy generals from [-] miles away?" The mountain battalion commander cursed.

"Hey, it would be great if there were muskets that could shoot the enemy from [-] miles away. I can blow Zheng Zhilong's head off with just one shot, just like this, bang..."

"If there is such a musket, I must go to Shanhaiguan to find the highest mountain there."

"why?"

"In this way, I can aim at the dragon chair of Lao Tzu, the emperor of the Forbidden City, and shoot him when he is going up, and see if he doesn't scare him enough to pee his pants in front of all civil and military officials."

"Old Wang, you are really wicked."

"Pretend to be a saint, don't tell me you don't want to try this."

A group of mountain battalion chiefs stood up.

The soldiers cleaning the battlefield in the dense forest saw their officers gathered together to blow water, shook their heads, and continued to dig pits with shovels to bury the corpses.Ever since the Liao Army's equipment got better and better, new weapons emerged one after another. These officers fell in love with blowing water, thinking all day about what else Chu Yun could come up with.Soldiers are also used to it.

Some indigenous people on Ishigaki Island saw this thrilling battle from a distance. Guns, cannons, fortresses, and warships emerged one after another, and they were so frightened that they regarded the Liao army stationed on the island as gods.It is said that until the first private school was established on the island, there were aborigines who bowed to the fort set up here by the Liao army from afar...

The day after the pirates retreated, another powerful fleet appeared on the sea level.Although the number of this fleet is not as exaggerated as the pirate ships, the specifications of almost every battle are beyond the reach of ordinary pirate ships!The first-class battleship Victory has three decks, covering the sky and the sun!And the rest of the battleships also have two decks, fifty or sixty cannons!
Near a few battleships, there are countless frigates, cruisers, supply ships, and troop carriers. The stars are majestic and majestic, even more powerful than the Pirate Alliance!

"The main force of our fleet has arrived!" Deng Qianlong led the two fleets of Daqin and Atlante into the main fleet. The fleet size of the Fuliao Army reached an unprecedented record!

The seven battleships Victory, Atlanta, Daqin, Daqi, Dawei, Dazhao, and Daehan are the backbone, followed by 34 gunboats, followed by supply ships and troop carriers!
"Look, how magnificent the Liao Army's fleet is, those rabble-rousing pirates can't compare with them!" The little assassin leader led a few assassins who became soldiers of the Liao Army to climb up to the top of the bastion, looking at the sparkling light from a distance. of the sea.

This terrifying fleet is overwhelming, with cold cannons exposed outside the cabin, battle flags on the mast fluttering in the sea breeze, and neat rows of naval soldiers holding muskets lined up on both sides of the deck!
