In the face of the powerful firepower of Guining Fort, the Zheng army only charged twice, and Zheng Zhibao, who could not bear the heavy casualties, had no choice but to withdraw his troops in a depressed mood.

However, when Zheng Zhibao led his soldiers and horses back to the northern end of Jilong Island, he found that the Luzon fleet had taken advantage of the night to bypass the main force of the Zheng family and broke through to the northern end of Jilong.

The Zheng squadron stationed here was almost powerless and was sunk by the Luzon fleet one by one.

When Zheng Zhilong arrived with the main fleet, only fragments of broken wood were left telling the former glory of the Zheng family's fleet.

"Old Five", above the flagship of the Zheng family, Zheng Zhilong, who saw the destruction of his own fleet, was grief-stricken.

What's more critical is that the Luzon fleet has always been eyeing the northern end of Jilong Island, and even if the main force of the Zheng family arrives, it has no intention of retreating.

In this case, Zheng Zhibao and others could not board the ship and retreat smoothly.

"Zongzhen, we can't fight anymore", Zheng Zhilong's flagship, Zheng Hongkui and other generals cried desperately.

"Our fleet only has less than half of its strength left, and if we continue to fight, my Zheng family will be in danger."

"My fifth brother is still on the island, are you going to be afraid of the battle?"

Zheng Zhilong was flawed, and scolded several generals with his head and face.

"How do we not know that the fifth master is still on the island, as the so-called green mountains are left without worrying about no firewood, if we continue to attack, it is very likely that all our Zheng family's foundation will be smashed here."

Zheng Hongkui said with a serious face, "Zongzhen, the Zheng family is here, even if the fifth master and others fall into the hands of the enemy, they will not dare to act rashly against them, but if we lose all the horses, then the fifth master and a group of soldiers will have to shed their skin if they don't die." ”

"That's right, please think twice."

Several generals of the Zheng family all persuaded together, and even Zheng Zhilong's second brother Zheng Zhilin cried bitterly:

"Big brother, please pay attention to the overall situation, if the fifth brother is here, he will also let you retreat."

"I'm a damn Luzon person", Zheng Zhilong shouted up to the sky, full of sadness.

No amount of pathos is meaningless in the face of strength.

Zheng Zhibao and others, who had already been defeated, watched the entire fleet on the ocean go north, and the remaining more than 2,000 officers and soldiers were all terrified and sad.

At this time, on the Luzon fleet, as the Zheng family's naval army near the side of Jilong Island retreated northward, all the Luzon soldiers burst into cheers.

"Han Signal, Wu Qi、......、 Shunqing and other ships will immediately return to Hong Kong, ready to assist the Flying Bear Brigade in capturing Zheng Jun on Guining Island."

"Hooray"

It was only after the remaining mines at the entrance to the bay were cleared that the Luzon detachment was able to return to port, and by this time it was already dark.

Zheng Zhibao and a group of remnants of the army had no place to hide on Guining Island, and the entire Guiyang Island was only a few square kilometers in size, where could more than 2,000 people run.

After Zhao Jingyong landed on the island with his follow-up troops, Zheng's army was gradually expelled to the hilly terrain in the eastern part of Guining Island.

"Listen to the people of the Zheng family, my Luzon General's Mansion never kills prisoners indiscriminately, as long as you surrender, we can ensure that you are treated fairly."

At the foot of the mountain, Luzon soldiers kept shouting loudly with loudspeakers.

However, with Zheng Zhibao there, the Zheng family sailors even launched several counterattacks, but as a matter of course, they were beaten back by the ferocious bullet rain.

There were many trees on the hills, and in order to avoid casualties, the Luzon army was also reluctant to storm it.

Seeing that the persuasion was at an impasse, Zhao Jingyong had to play in person.

"Zhao Jingyong, the left deputy governor of the Navy of the General Luzon General's Mansion, who is leading the troops opposite, would you like to talk about it?"

Zheng Zhibao stood up from behind the trees he was hiding and looked at Zhao Jingyong with angry eyes.

"I am Zheng Zhibao, the deputy commander of the Ming Dynasty, you wait for the Luzon thieves to invade my maritime frontier, and we will not share the sky with you."

Zhao Jingyong sneered, "It turned out to be Zheng Wuye, disrespectful and disrespectful, let's not talk about dark words, don't talk about these things, I have no big enmity between Luzon and the Zheng family, after this battle, the strength of the Zheng family has dropped significantly, everyone should talk." ”

"Don't worry, the governor of Pontus guarantees that the lives of you and your subordinates can be guaranteed, and if the peace talks with the Zheng family go well, you can still return to Fujian, what are the conditions?"

There was a commotion among the soldiers of the Zheng army.

After a day and a night of fierce fighting and hiding, more than 2,000 people were already hungry and thirsty, and when they heard that they could return smoothly, a group of people all looked at Zheng Zhibao with blank eyes.

Zheng Zhibao's face was blue and white for a while, and he was finally defeated in the eyes of his subordinates.

"I hope you keep your word, and we surrender."

"Wan Sheng!"

In the sky above Keelung City, cheers resounded through the sky immediately.

With the surrender of the Zheng army led by Zheng Zhibao, the entire Keelung Bay battle finally came to an end.

In this battle, the Zheng family dispatched more than 20,000 troops and more than 300 large and small warships, while Luzon only had more than 7,200 soldiers and horses and more than 30 warships.

However, in one day, the Zheng family lost nearly half of the battleship, plus the captured Zheng Zhibao and others, and the soldiers and horses lost more than 8,000 people.

Fortunately, Zheng Zhilong made a quick decision and led the main fleet to evacuate in time, and most of the Zheng family's losses were small boats such as arson ships and rushing boats, and most of their strength was preserved.

But after this war, it is no longer possible for the Zheng family to monopolize trade in the Taiwan Strait as before.

On 20 September, a fleet of more than 20 warships appeared on the sea off Quanzhou again.

Mountains of ships blocked the sea routes, terrifying all the maritime merchants who came and went.

Fortunately, the fleet only stood quietly on the surface of the sea, and there was no plundering of the merchant ships passing by.

In the end, there were brave fishermen who approached the fleet in small boats, asking the Luzon if they needed to procure anything.

You Degao and others were a little laughed and cried by this play, and in order to fight for a good reputation, the Luzon fleet actually sent small boats to follow ashore, and purchased a large amount of meat and other materials with real money.

Although there is no shortage of food and seafood in Keelung City, pork is in short supply.

At this time, the Zheng family mansion in Jinjiang also welcomed a guest from Luzon, who was Jiang Baolin, the captain of the Sun Wu who volunteered.

Originally, Mao Yuanyi planned to go into battle in person, but considering that he still had a small family in Zhejiang, You Degao and others persuaded him again.

Under the murderous eyes of a group of Zheng family soldiers, Jiang Baolin, dressed in a red navy uniform, walked over the spacious gate of the Zheng family and the dozens of Zheng family soldiers standing in line in front of the door.

Passing through the general garden of the scenic area behind the gate of the Zheng family's mansion, Jiang Baolin finally met the ruler of the Zheng family, Zheng Zhilong.

Since he lost his troops outside Keelung City five days ago, Zheng Zhilong has been seriously ill when he comes back, and now he is just holding on.

Therefore, in Jiang Baolin's eyes, the slightly dark face of the southeast overlord was tinged with paleness, and his short hair like a steel needle was also weakly subdued, unable to bring out the majesty of the master.

In the main hall of the Zheng family, there are already more than a dozen core generals of the Zheng family.

Jiang Baolin strode in, stood up in a standard military posture, and gave a military salute by slamming his right fist on his chest.

"Under the command of the Luzon General's Mansion, Jiang Baolin, the commander of the Navy Governor's Mansion and the captain of the Sun Wu, has seen General Zheng."

"What bullshit is the Navy Governor's Mansion, a bunch of overseas outcasts are still playing with spears, trying to fool me Li Laosan, you are still a little tender."

Zheng Zhilong's first man with a medium stature and a dark appearance opened his mouth and scolded, causing the generals of the Zheng family to laugh.

Jiang Baolin's indifferent gaze swept over this Li Laosan, and finally looked at Zheng Zhilong, who was sitting on the main seat sickly.

"The general of the defeated army, how dare you speak bravely."

"You ......"

"Presumptuous"

At this moment, not only Li Laosan was furious, but the other generals also stood up and yelled angrily.

"Ahem, okay, Commander Jiang, please take a seat. Those who come are guests, don't let people laugh at our lack of etiquette. ”

Zheng Zhilong coughed lightly and pressed down the group of subordinates, and waved his hand to signal the maids on the side to watch the seats.

Someone immediately brought a Taishi chair to the main hall, and Jiang Baolin sat down calmly without fear.

"Mr. Zheng dominates the southeast, and it is really not a waste of fame, Song admires it."

"Hehe, let's say, what is Commander Jiang here for?" , Zheng Zhilong smiled lightly.

A few words popped out of Jiang Baolin's mouth, "peace talks".

Seeing that the generals of the Zheng family wanted to scold again, he immediately added: "Zheng Wuye and a group of Zheng family soldiers eat and drink well in my Keelung City, but Zheng Wuye is not used to living on Taiwan Island and wants to go home, so the governor of my family sent me to discuss." ”
