Chapter 1146: Character Determines Destiny

Shi Lang was less than forty at this time, and his heart was high.

He even dared to stand up to Zheng Chenggong, until he annoyed Zheng Chenggong, and then he was cut and came to Zheng Zhiguan's men to eat and wait for death.

Therefore, Shi Lang was not afraid of Zheng Zhiguan's roar at all, he still said: "The proud soldiers will be defeated, General Zheng, you will regret it!" ”

Zheng Zhiguan was so angry that he jumped to his feet and shouted: "Pull this beast out, and the rod will be punished for twenty." ”

These twenty rods hit Shi Lang's body, and they were not seriously injured.

But Shi Lang's loyalty to the Zheng family is afraid that he will be defeated.

If you beat your subordinates again, you won't always make your subordinates hold grudges.

The key point is that the evidence must be conclusive, and at the same time, the officials do not make the same mistakes.

Just like Shi Lang and Chen Yonghua, he persuaded Zheng Chenggong to attack Haiyang immediately after persuading Hao Shangjiu to surrender.

But after Zheng Chenggong repeatedly disobeyed, he blamed Shi Lang for wanting to announce his personal vendetta.

What is this called, although Shi Lang was coaxed out by Hao Shangjiu and was ambushed, after all, it was before he took refuge in Zheng Chenggong.

So, if Zheng Chenggong successfully captured Haiyang later, then Shi Lang would not hold a grudge, there is no reason to hold a grudge, Shangguan's judgment is correct, what kind of hatred do you remember?

But Zheng Chenggong was wrong, his hesitation and hesitation made Zheng Jun miss the opportunity to attack Haiyang, then, Shi Lang held a grudge, because this was not only a missed opportunity to attack the city, but also made Shi Lang lose an opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

And now, Shi Lang thinks he is right, but Zheng Zhiguan was stunned and didn't listen, and scolded himself with a military stick, not only lost his military merits, but also suffered humiliation, how could Shi Lang not hold a grudge?

……。

The strength of the Zheng family sailor is strong.

By evening, the position of the "Wu De" fleet was detected.

It is between Wan'ansu (east of Putian) and Caoyu.

Zheng Zhiguan immediately ordered the sailors to go to sea overnight to encircle and annihilate the "Wu De" fleet.

For a time, the port was crowded, and countless torches reflected the night sky.

The warship, which was as huge as a tall building, lifted anchor and slowly left the shore.

Zheng Zhiguan was draped all over his body, decorated with a red tasseled iron helmet, and a big red cloak flying in the wind...... Tsk, what a mighty general!

However, some people are just so uninteresting!

Shi Lang came limping with a staff wound, lame.

"General Zheng, don't be reckless!"

Listen, listen, what is this called?

The shuttle fleet reconnoitred the enemy's situation beyond doubt.

The strength of our army's naval division can completely crush the opponent, if you don't attack overnight, do you want to send the enemy home?

Actually in front of everyone, accusing this general of being reckless?

Zheng Zhiguan's face was pale, he glared at Shi Lang angrily, and said in a deep voice: "Shi Lang, a slight punishment was given before noon, that is for the sake of you used to be the commander of the left camp of the prince's vanguard, but now you are a guilty body, don't be ashamed!" ”

Shi Lang shouted: "General Zheng, this is a trap!" The so-called Wu De Naval Division, after defeating the deputy general Chen Quinoa and capturing more than ten warships of our Naval Division, did not return north, but stayed in the waters of Wan'an, is not afraid of the retaliation of our Naval Division? ”

These words caused the hearts of all the sailor generals present to jump.

Shi Lang's words are right, the Zheng family sailor is on the coast of Fujian and Guangdong, that is, there is a god-like existence, only the first, not the second and the third, because the Zheng family sailor is all included.

In addition to pirates, but they are also pirates with the acquiescence of the Zheng family, otherwise, if you want to eat in the Zheng family's one-third of an acre of land, don't think about it.

So, the "Wu De" naval division, which had only twenty warships, was lucky enough to defeat Chen Quinoa and captured more than ten warships of the Zheng family's naval division, including two capital ships.

What about staying in the waters of Wan'an and waiting to die?

The human heart is often like this, the right thing is said at the wrong time and on the wrong place, and it is wrong.

Zheng Zhiguan is already furious, shame!

I want to follow my brother Zheng Zhilong for decades, drinking wine in big bowls, eating meat in large pieces, and sweeping across the South China Sea, you kid is still peeing and playing with mud.

Today, when we show our big faces, you kid actually came to make trouble?

What is unbearable!

Zheng Zhiguan said angrily: "Even if there is a conspiracy in the trap, but a small fleet of boats can't help my sailor to strike a thunderous blow...... Come on, take this guy down, lock him up, and when the general is triumphant, clean him up again! ”

Zheng Zhiguan's words also make sense, in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks, that's all a fart.

The face of the sailor general relaxed.

Yes, no matter what traps and conspiracies he has, we just need to attack with dignity and run over them straight.

So, Shi Lang was dragged away.

The Zheng family's sailors went to sea.

The entire sea surface of Huyu is full of warships, and it is dark night, otherwise, the sails of the Zheng family's sailors can be called dark clouds covering the sun.

Zheng Zhiguan really relied on his strength, and 64 capital ships with 48 guns were dispatched, 100 warships with 32 guns, and countless other fire attack ships and shuttle ships.

When the sky was slightly brightened in the early morning, a huge fleet of about 300 warships, large and small, began to sail north in the waters of Wan'an.

……。

After noon, Zheng Zhiguan led the fleet to the waters east of Meizhou Island and received a report from the scout.

The enemy division set sail in the early hours of the morning and fled northward.

This information made Zheng Zhiguan's heart, which was originally worried about Shi Lang's advice, finally let go.

Since you are fleeing, then there is no conspiracy, otherwise, you should take the initiative to face the battle, so it is a mystery to be false.

Zheng Zhiguan immediately ordered the troops to divide into two routes, one to pursue north at full speed along the coastline, and the other to turn east, to the waters of Wuqiu Mountain and then to the north, so as to form a situation of outflanking the enemy's naval division.

Zheng Zhiguan was anxious at this time, the enemy division had already fled north, and if he couldn't chase it in time, he would be fled back to the sea area of eastern Zhejiang.

This sailor is sure to have a connection with Wu Zheng, and when the time comes, the away battle, then the result will be two.

Although Zheng Zhiguan wanted to provoke a big battle between Wu Zheng and Zheng Chenggong in his heart, but at the moment, he personally led the sailors to attack, if he entered the waters of eastern Zhejiang, if there was an accident, it would be a matter of life and death.

Therefore, Zheng Zhiguan ordered the Second Route Sailor to pursue at full speed.

……。

Shen Shichu.

Zheng Zhiguan led the fleet to the waters of Niushan.

At this time, the scout came to report that the enemy division was in the waters of Dongsha and headed towards Dongyong Mountain.

Zheng Zhiguan compared the sea chart, and judged with the generals of the navy division that the distance between the two sides should be about 100 nautical miles.

At this speed, one side escapes and the other chases, even if the own speed is faster, it is difficult to intercept the enemy division before returning to the waters of eastern Zhejiang.

After a brief discussion, Zheng Zhiguan ordered all the assisting ships, including the fire attack ships, to be left behind and form a separate fleet to follow.

The sailors were ordered to pursue only at full speed with the capital ships.

But Zheng Zhiguan was also cautious, and strictly ordered that if the enemy ship fled into the waters of eastern Zhejiang, it was not to pursue!
