Smuggling Daming

"Da...Da Ming's battleship!" Seeing the battleship going upstream on the opposite side, and hearing the continuous roar of the opponent's warship in his ears, Li Nan was also stunned in shock. There is such a huge battleship in the entire Nanyang Ocean. , and the battleships are equipped with artillery, only the Ming army stationed in Malacca.

Qiu Ju was already prepared to be defeated. He even planned to die on the Musi River in order to buy some time for the people in the rear to retreat, but he did not expect that at this last moment, Daming's reinforcements finally arrived. He couldn't help but feel like he was saved from a desperate situation, and the few generals behind him burst into tears with excitement, after all, no one likes death.

The Deming Fleet that came to support this time was led by Qu Lie himself. Shenying, as the admiral, was going to sit in Malacca, so naturally he couldn't move lightly, so Qu Lie, who was the number two in the army, led the team in person.Originally, they could have reached the battlefield earlier, but when crossing the Musi River, they encountered several bridges along the way. These bridges were too low to allow their warships to pass through. He arrived on the battlefield at a critical moment.

Qu Lie is not opposed to supporting the old port like Shenying. In his opinion, as long as there is a war, the entire Governor's Mansion knows that although Shenying is highly respected, she is old after all, and the governor of the world is also mainly a navy. So in the future, he will definitely step down. In this way, the position of admiral will be vacant, and among the sailors in the entire Governor's Mansion, only he and Chang Xiao are the most likely to inherit the position of admiral. He has independently led troops to fight against the Japanese and Koreans several times.Qu Lie was very anxious for making a lot of contributions. After all, everything in the army is based on military merits, and now Chang Xiao has obviously stepped ahead of him.

It is precisely because of the great threat of Chang Xiao that Qu Lie doesn't care whether he should send troops or not. That is something that his superiors should consider. All he considers now is to make military achievements, whether he can surpass Chang Xiao or not, at least he can You have to catch up with the opponent.Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to eat.

It was precisely because of the above thoughts that Qu Lie worked very hard to help the old port this time. When he stood at the bow of the ship and saw through the binoculars that the old port army was running low, he immediately ordered the cannons on the ship to fire. A cannonball flew out, and the Musi River was not too wide for them.So it was easy to be covered and shot by them, and the final effect was good. Although most of the shells missed, some shells also hit the warships of Danmu Kingdom, especially the opponent's suspected flagship warship was also hit. Among them, the middle part of the hull was smashed by shells.I don't know if the commander-in-chief of the other party is dead? `

"Da Ming's reinforcements are here, brothers, kill me!" Qiu Ju shouted.The soldiers around him also spread the news. As a result, the old port soldiers on other ships heard that their reinforcements were coming, and they were also from their home country. Light-eyed soldiers on board.

In contrast, the soldiers of the Danmu country were ashen-faced, and they didn't know who the army who came to help was.I couldn't understand what the Han soldiers in Old Port were shouting, but they knew.There are countless cannons installed on the extremely tall warships of the other side. They always thought that only their own side had cannons, and they also had absolute confidence in their own cannons. They believed that no one in this world was a match for cannons. Having more cannons shattered the confidence of all the soldiers of the Danmu Kingdom at once. Even the braver soldiers now appeared more cowardly in the face of the cannons, and they were ready to escape one by one.

While encouraging his soldiers to kill the enemy, Qiu Ju commanded his warships to move to both sides, so as to make way for the Ming warship behind.Qu Lie at the back was not polite, he personally commanded his warship, and was the first to rush into the battlefield. Compared with those small battleships of the Nanyang people, his battleship was like a huge battleship that rushed into the crowd of dwarfs. Among them, a casual wave of his hand can crush the dwarves around him to pieces.

The biggest difference between water warfare and land warfare is that water warfare is highly dependent on equipment, especially warships as the carrier of water warfare can determine the outcome of a war, although now Chang Xiao and the others The warship he was driving was an old-fashioned Fuchuan warship, which was not considered the most advanced, but for small countries in Southeast Asia, it was invincible. Their small ships had almost no power to fight back against such giants. , the only threats to the Ming warship are those small boats carrying artillery. Unfortunately, these small boats were taken care of by the Ming warship at the beginning, and they were hit by several shells almost in the blink of an eye, and finally sank into the Musi River unwillingly end.

Ke Linan looked at the warships of the Ming Dynasty that were raging among the warships on his side. In the blink of an eye, dozens of warships on his side were injured by the warships of the Ming Dynasty, most of them were hit by artillery. Among them, the other part was directly hit and sunk by the opponent's warship, and the opponent's hull was so tall that the soldiers on their own side had no chance to jump onto the opponent's warship. They could only watch helplessly as the ship under their feet was destroyed. Then one by one struggled in the river.

"Retreat...retreat!" Ke Linan gave the final order weakly and unwillingly. Facing the tall warships of Da Ming and equipped with countless artillery, the fate of these small ships was to be slaughtered. , and even his ship was injured, and now it can't be used at all, which made him have to transfer to another ship to take command.

Following the order of Kerinan's retreat, all the warships of the Danmu Kingdom did not care about fighting at all. They turned their bows and went upstream at the fastest speed, and withdrew from the battlefield. They were really frightened by Da Ming's warships. It is estimated that after this battle, as long as they see Da Ming's fleet in the future, they will run away quickly.

Although the Musi River is wide, it is a river after all. It is not suitable for Qu Lie's large warships, at least the speed cannot be increased, so in the end, they can only watch the warships of the Danmu Kingdom flee. This made Qu Lie very annoyed, and finally vented his anger on the elephant soldiers of the Danmu Kingdom on both sides of the strait. As a result, after a salvo of artillery and bed crossbows, half of those slow-moving elephant soldiers were shot to death, and the rest were not at all. Following the command of the elephant slave, he roared and rushed into the forest on both sides of the river bank.

Seeing the defeat of the Yidanmu Kingdom, the Han army in Old Port was naturally full of joy, but they did not forget to express their gratitude to Qu Lie and the others. Although Qu Lie felt that the battle was too easy, it was not easy to show it at this time , waved to the old port army immediately, and then invited the leader of the other party to board the ship, so as to discuss the next thing.

With the excitement of the rest of his life, Qiu Ju leaned his boat onto Qu Lie's big boat, and climbed up the boat along the rope ladder. As soon as he got on the boat, he felt that his eyesight was not enough. The sides of this Ming battleship were covered with artillery, and the steel-cast artillery squatted there, like silent tigers, which made people feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.

"Caomin Qiuju, pay my respects to General Qu!" After seeing Qu Lie, Qiu Ju immediately bowed and saluted. He had already inquired before boarding the boat and knew that the general leading the team in front of him was surnamed Qu, and he was also from the Fourth Navy. Among the top three generals, this kind of person is not something he can offend.

"Haha, Patriarch Qiu doesn't need to be too polite. When I came here, I had already heard the introduction of the situation in Jiugang by the patriarch. It is really a righteous act for Patriarch Qiu to stand up in times of crisis and organize troops to protect Jiugang. I admire him very much too!" Although Qu Lie had an arrogant attitude, he showed enough courtesy to Qiu Ju, after all, he knew that the middle-aged man in front of him had a huge influence on Jiugang, and if Da Ming wanted to rule here in the future, he had to With the help of the strength of the Qiu family.

Seeing that Qu Lie was so polite to him, Qiu Ju was also very happy. He hurriedly said a few polite words, and immediately invited him back to his barracks. After all, Qu Lie and the others came from a long way, and they must have been very sleepy after another battle. So I went to the barracks to rest, and there was time in the city to prepare for the ceremony to celebrate the victory.

Qu Lie was not polite at the moment, and immediately ordered the fleet to come to the barracks of the Old Harbor Army stationed outside the city with Qiu Ju. Just after they arrived at the barracks, they received the report from the spies, and the army of the Danmu Kingdom was severely beaten. After the defeat, Ke Linan immediately ran all the way with the army, and it seemed that he was about to flee back to Java Island.In addition, according to the report of the person who counted the results of the battle, although the Ming army and the Danmu army did not fight for a long time, they destroyed hundreds of warships of the opponent, and the opponent killed and injured tens of thousands of people. Few, most of them drowned after falling into the water.

The Danmu Kingdom retreated, and the siege of the Old Port naturally disappeared. This made everyone in the Old Port full of gratitude to the Ming army. That night, many residents of the Old Port sent their prepared beef, mutton and fish to the barracks to reward Daming. The only downside is that there is no alcohol, because Muslims don't drink at all, and I am afraid that there is no glass of alcohol in the old port city, which makes Qu Lie very regretful.

Jiugang is very enthusiastic about the Ming army, but Qu Lie did not forget his mission because of this enthusiasm. In addition to helping the Han people here to repel the Danmu Kingdom, he also had other tasks when he came to Jiugang. For example, the first one is to take over The defense of the old port, after all, here is likely to become the second Malacca, and Qiuju and the others are very cooperative in this regard. After all, they have no idea of ​​occupying the mountain as king. Now they have the umbrella of Daming, which can make their life better .

However, after Qu Lie took over the defense of the Old Port, when he was preparing to urge the Grand Priest to fulfill his original promise, something unexpected happened to him. conflict.
