Emperor Kangxi: Yuyu Chengxiang

Chapter 61 Tossing Copper Coins, the Governor Sets the Heart of the Army, Beats the Battle Drum, Shi Lang Bites His Eyeball (2)
On the fourth day, when the card was applied for, the south wind intensified, and the wind urged the warships to sail away like arrows, like giant whales splitting the waves on the sea, splashing high water.Penghu Island is getting closer.The rocky reefs rising from the shore, like monsters, appear and disappear in the waves, which can be seen clearly with the naked eye.But there was no movement at all.After all, Yao Qisheng was born as a literati, and when he was about to meet the enemy, his heart beat violently, his hands were holding the ship's rails, wet and sticky, and covered in cold sweat.He took a breath silently, turned his head and smiled at Shi Lang: "Isn't Liu Guoxuan the guard here? He has led soldiers for decades, why is it so bad, he should have bombarded my ship long ago. The right thing to do is to attack out of chaos!"

The binoculars in Shi Lang's hands have not been put down, and the sea water rushing to the ship's side has long since made him drenched. Hearing Yao Qisheng's words, he replied without moving: "There has been movement on the island..." Before he finished speaking, the people on the island The cannons rang out loudly, and concentrated their firepower on the flagship of the Chinese army. Immediately, a column of water was stirred up around it and poured on the ship.At the same time, about a hundred enemy ships came surfing out of the port.Shi Langfang waved the red flag in his hand, and the front team's 28 cannons and [-] shotguns roared at the same time.Except for the ten cannons made by Laita, the others were refined by the Ministry of War Manufacturing Bureau. They have a long range and fast reloading of gunpowder, but the recoil is so strong that the hull shakes violently every time a cannon is fired.

The island was suddenly filled with thick smoke, and the blown-off flags and broken masts fell down like kites. The soldiers on the island ran in a panic, but they couldn't hear anything screaming, and soon calmed down. Shi Lang knew that Liu Guoxuan was killing people , Rectify military discipline.After watching the cannons on the island, they overwhelmed their heads and covered their faces.The flagship was surrounded by mist.A few feet away, nothing can be seen clearly, the sea and the sky are lost in the porridge-like chaos.Shi Lang hurriedly ordered: "Play the flag, the left and right wings don't have to worry about me, quickly attack Jilongyu and Niuxinwan, and occupy the beachhead!"

Shi Lang couldn't help being furious, drew his sword in his hand, and stepped forward to kill the fainted sailor.When he got to the front, he was stunned.It turned out that the flag bearer of the Chinese army had been blown to death beside the ship's side, and he was standing still holding the command flag tightly, blood and sea water gurgling down.

Shi Lang was moved and anxious at the same time.He snatched the command flag with his hands, and said sharply: "Yao Qisheng commands the flagship!" He strode up the inclined flag platform, and personally held the flag to issue orders to Chen Mang and Wei Mingchuan.In an instant, the artillery on the left and right wings shook the sky, and Niuxinwan and Jilongyu were on fire at the same time.

At this moment, the vanguard and the enemy ship have already joined the battle, the cannons are useless, the arrows are like rain locusts, the guns are like popping beans, and the rockets are firing. Several sails are burning on both sides, and the cracking of masts, drums, and shouts The sound of screaming, howling, the collision of battleships, the sound of hand-to-hand combat, and the noise of big waves mingled together.Seeing that Shi Lang's left and right wings had already occupied the beachhead, the enemy ship obviously panicked and crossed the hull to meet the enemy, and each sent twenty ships to the left and right wings to rescue the rear.But this time, the situation in the middle lane became clear immediately, Liu Guoxuan was alone and weak, so he could only cast rockets to protect him, and at the same time called gold to withdraw his troops, and retreated slowly.

Seeing that the enemy's retreat was cut off, Shi Lang couldn't help laughing up to the sky, ordered the second flag bearer to play the flag and ordered to attack the enemy's beachhead with all his strength, and personally beat the drums to lead the Chinese army in pursuit.Right now.Unexpectedly, a cold arrow flew "swish", and it went straight to the left eye!Yao Qisheng's face was pale, and he rushed over with a loud cry, but he was desperate to do anything.The guards on both sides were stunned when they saw that the coach was seriously injured with blood streaming down his face!Shi Lang staggered a step, and shouted viciously: "Why are you in a daze? Urgently order the Lan Brothers to attack, the sky will change immediately!" After speaking, he grinned grimly and pulled out the arrow with eyes, holding it tightly in his hand.

"Brother Shi Lang!" Yao Qisheng burst into tears.

Shi Lang held on to the iron railing with one hand, and the veins on his forehead were bulging. After a long time, he smiled with difficulty and said, "Qisheng, thanks to the fact that you are still the famous Yao Daudao, why should you act like a son and daughter! Parents who suffer from body, hair and skin, can't be taken lightly." Abandoned? The ancient famous generals have eyeballs to fight, am I not as good as them?" He shoved his eyeballs into his mouth tremblingly and stretched his neck to swallow...the arrow snapped into two pieces, threw it into the sea, and gritted his teeth. Wu Ying, the commander-in-chief beside him: "Fight, bastard, do you understand? Fight!" After finishing speaking, he beat the war drum again.

Dozens of warships from both sides of the center front team have already smashed into a group.Lan Li's eyes were red from killing, and he was shot more than ten times all over his body, like a gourd of blood, he continued to look for the enemy to fight hand-to-hand.Lan Ming was smarter than his elder brother. In this fierce battle from the beginning of Shen to the end of Shen, not a single soldier died on his boat.It turned out that after connecting with the enemy ship, he ordered everyone to lie down in the cabin together, eat beef jerky and drink water.The sailors were only asked to sway the rudder to crawl around in the enemy ship, like an eel, the enemy came up and killed one by one, cut off their ears as proof, and threw the corpses into the sea. In this way, hundreds of people died silently on his ship.All the ships have turned into volcanoes of blood, but it is the only one that swings around like an empty ship, waiting for flies like a spider spreading its web.

"Second Master!" A windy sailor said suddenly, "Master's ship..."

Lan Ming got up calmly and looked out from the hatch. Liu Guoxuan's vanguard general Zeng Sui led three warships to trap Lan Li's ship in the core. The mast collapsed and the ship was already on fire, so he turned around and said, "Don't panic!" ! Let our boat approach quietly!"

At this time, Lan Li was in a very dangerous situation. Seeing that his ship was sinking, he took the remaining ten soldiers and jumped onto Zeng Sui's ship. More than 40 people on Zeng Sui's ship surrounded him. Long ago, Lan Li's exhausted guards were chopped to the ground.Zeng Sui leaned on the sword in one hand and ate wine with his neck upturned. Seeing that Lan Li was alone, gasping for breath with his back against the cabin, he dropped the wine bottle with a slap, and came over with the sword with a grinning grin. A living origin?"

"So what? You are Zeng Sui, a sea bandit for a living?" Lan Li clenched his sword tightly, carefully guarding against his sudden attack, and said with a smile, "Look around, do you still have hope?"

"We can be called confidants." Zeng Sui chuckled, "I'm at the end of my life, but you can't survive. You also look around, how long can you live?"

As Zeng Sui spoke, he straightened his sword and stabbed towards Lan Li's head, Lan Li hurriedly raised his knife to block it, but missed - it turned out that Zeng Sui waved his sword falsely and stabbed at Lan Li's abdomen again - he was stabbing at Lan Li's stomach. On Li's exposed stomach, Lan Li yelled and lay down on the deck with a broken belly.Zeng Sui put away his sword with a smile, and said to the soldiers on the left and right: "You shout in unison: Lan Li is dead!"

The soldiers listened to the order, rolled up their trumpets, and shouted with all their might, "Lan Li is dead! Lan Li is dead!"

"Lan Li is still alive, but Zeng Sui is dead!"

Lan Li, who was lying on the ground, suddenly yelled, and a carp jumped up, swinging a heavy broad-backed sword and slashing at Zeng Sui.

Rao Zeng Sui is very skilled in martial arts, how could this "dead man" still have such a sudden move, when his body flashed suddenly, his left arm had already been cut off.At this moment, like a magic trick, more than forty shirtless men climbed up from the rear side, and rushed over without a sound. More than 20 guards had already been chopped down by more than half.

Zeng Sui's face was as white as paper, he clutched his broken arm and yelled, "The left and right ships come over here, kill them quickly!"

But the soldiers under him are at the end of their strength, how can they resist this group of fresh troops who have been recharging their energy and eating and drinking for half a day, but whoever meets them will be killed and fell to the ground like the wind sweeps the fallen leaves.Lan Li survived a desperate situation, couldn't help crying, collapsed on the ground, and shouted to cheer: "Good brother, with you, he is better than my brother! It's so easy to kill, let the emperor know that my brothers from the Lan family are not cowards! "

Zeng Sui's vanguard ship was soon occupied by the two brothers of the Lan family.Lan Ming cut the flag rope with a single knife, and the pioneer flag with the word "Zeng" embroidered with a big bucket fell down with a "wow".Zeng Sui was forced to retreat to the door of the cabin under the attack of a dozen strong opponents, stood against the wall and shouted: "Everyone stop, I have something to say!"

The besiegers all took back their weapons.The battle on all sides has ended, and Liu Guoxuan's flagship has fled to the sea of ​​Niuxin Bay.Under the heavy black cloud, Zeng Sui didn't speak immediately, looked eastward for a moment with tear-filled eyes, and sighed softly: "The Great Ming Dynasty is dead, I am worthy of the old master Zheng Chenggong!" Zeng Sui suddenly pulled out a small flag from his sleeve, Hastily raised flags to ask Liu Guoxuan's ship to "fire at me"... Amidst the amazed eyes of everyone, Zeng Sui waved the flag, slammed his horizontal sword at his neck, and his body fell heavily on the wet ground like a sawed poplar. deck.Almost at the same time, Liu Guoxuan's volley came roaringly, and Lan Ming, who was standing in a daze, had half of his head cut off, and fell down without a word.

"Good brother..." Lan Li let out a miserable cry, and rushed forward, lying on Lan Ming's warm body, his whole body twitching, smashing the deck with his head and fists, and screaming in a hoarse voice. Tao cried loudly: "Mother loves you the most, how can I see her old man when I go back..."

All of a sudden, a golden snake that looked like gold and flowing fire rushed out of the clouds, followed by a shocking thunderstorm.The heavy rain was falling down on the head and covering the face, making the sea "swipe" and the mountains ringing... It was already dark.
