Chapter 128: Occupy the island of Torti

PS: It's been a long time, sorry.

Hou Taiyuan agreed to surrender to the Chinese Independent Army, and the pirates and support ships of Feilong Island were merged to form a Caribbean guerrilla fleet, and the guerrilla fleet eliminated some of the wounded and weak Chinese pirates, with a total number of 850 people, 500 personnel to carry out sea operations, and 200 infantry and 100 Chinese pirates from Feilong Island brought by Chen Sen to form a marine combat force to carry out landing operations and defend against pirates.

The two units were mixed, with Chen Sen as the commander-in-chief of the fleet and Hou Taiyuan as the deputy commander of the fleet and the chief officer of the marines, and was awarded the rank of major.

Wang Youtian was in charge of commanding a logistics team composed of eliminated Chinese pirates and lightly and seriously wounded, with the rank of captain.

The support fleet set off with the large fleet sent to Europe, and when the two fleets were separated, the support fleet was replenished with a large amount of food supplies, so after the establishment of the Caribbean guerrilla fleet, the food supplies carried by the ships were quickly moved to Feilong Island, and the two attendants were also involved in the treatment of the wounded.

After more than ten busy days, the overall pattern of Feilong Island has roughly returned to the situation before the pirate sneak attack, the simple thatched huts are built on the open space in the center of the island, the destroyed fences and guard posts on the coast are re-established, and most of the more than 300 light and serious wounded have survived under the treatment of the two langzhong, of which more than 80 people have recovered well and can rejoin the combat unit, and the remaining 170 people are physically damaged, and after healing, they will be assigned to the logistics team under the command of Wang Youtian to undertake some auxiliary work.

The weather is clear and the sea is breezy and wavering.

The sea and sky near Feilong Island are one, and the scenery is beautiful, but such a beautiful scenery was broken by a team of discordant ships.

On the sea more than ten miles away from Feilong Island, a fleet of more than 50 large and small ships sailed down the wind and headed straight for Feilong Island.

The pirates attacked, the piercing sirens sounded on the Wyvern Island, and groups of soldiers ran out of the huts and tents, picked up the weapons placed around them, and urgently assembled under the leadership of their respective commanders, and then rushed to the coast of the pirate attack.

There were five or six dilapidated boats moored alone in the port on the shore of Feilong Island, but the main warships of the guerrilla fleet were nowhere to be found.

There were only a few Chinese sailors left behind on the five or six small boats, and when the pirate fleet approached the harbor, the sailors on board were well aware of the current affairs and did not resist stubbornly, so they resolutely abandoned the small boats in the harbor and ran towards the shore.

The Chinese soldiers who rushed to the shore formed a rudimentary line of defense, using their worn-out muskets and wooden bows and arrows to defend themselves against the pirates.

The pirate fleet quickly approached, and a large number of pirates jumped off the ship and rushed towards the shore with half-submerged waters.

Dozens of muskets of various types were fired in succession, and more than a dozen pirates who were charging in front were hit by bullets and fell on the beach thirty meters away from the defense line.

The number of Chinese soldiers in the defense line was only more than 100 people, and after the first two rounds of musket fire caused more than 30 casualties to the landing pirates, the defense line of more than 100 Chinese soldiers was crumbling in the face of more and more pirate attacks.

Mixed with the shouts of various indigenous voices, the intensity of the pirate's attack increased sharply, and the pirates assembled behind the coast, led by more than a dozen large and small leaders, swarmed and pushed towards the defense line with the sound of bullets whistling.

Feilong Island is a small area, the length of the coast where the Chinese soldiers are deployed is only 300 meters, and the number of pirates pushed by the whole army exceeds 1,000, and behind the large group of pirates, new pirates are constantly joining the attacking team.

More than 1,000 pirates occupied the entire coast in front of the defensive line, and the dense formation attack method increased the number of casualties while also putting great defensive pressure on the Chinese soldiers.

With a "boom", a shell fell to the center of the defensive line, and the fragments from the explosion of the shell took the lives of three or four Chinese soldiers, and several soldiers were affected by the artillery fire and were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness.

"Brother Li, the set up artillery on the coast, and the brothers can't hold it!"

When the shell exploded, Li Han was knocked to the ground by the small Chinese pirate leader next to him, dodging the fatal blow.

"Phew" Li Han spat out a mouthful of dirty spit, tightened the yellow turban on his head, and shouted, "Damn, all the niggers of the dog day have gone to the island, tell the brothers, our mission is complete, and all retreat to the back!" ”

Li Han hatefully glanced at the pirates who ignored the charge, turned his head, and with a wave of his big hand, led his more than 100 Chinese soldiers to retreat to the back.

The Chinese soldiers withdrew from the defensive line, and the unhindered pirates followed the Chinese soldiers with impunity towards the center of the island.

The Chinese soldiers fought at home, and the retreating Chinese soldiers kept a distance of more than 100 meters from the pursuing pirates by virtue of their familiarity with the terrain of Feilong Island, avoiding the danger of being caught up by the pirates behind.

After running seven or eight hundred meters, the Chinese soldiers suddenly turned around and ran into the middle of a jungle on the right.

"Da Da Da", the pirate entering the jungle was greeted by a shuttle of rapid bullets.

As the sound of machine-gun fire rang out, dense musket fire quickly sounded in the small jungle within a three-mile radius.

The pirates who entered the middle of the jungle for less than a minute were immediately hit hard, and more than two pirates fell between the jungles within a few minutes, and the pirates who pursued them with all their strength were stagnant, and the pirates who were lucky enough to escape their lives in the dense shooting were instantly stunned by the sudden attack, like headless flies slamming left and right in the jungle, desperately hoping to escape from the rain of bullets.

When the reacting pirates wanted to leave the jungle by the same way, the two machine guns hidden behind the boulders formed a defensive line composed of uninterrupted bullets, and rows of pirates who fled for their lives fell under the machine guns, leaving corpses all over the ground.

The fierce firing continued for more than ten minutes, and nearly half of the pirates who entered the jungle fell under the bullets fired everywhere, and the remaining pirates, except for a few who hid, most of them were prostrate on the ground with their heads in their hands.

The firing quickly stopped, and more than 400 Chinese soldiers appeared from their hiding places with muskets, vigilantly approaching the remaining pirates.

The battle in the jungle was fierce but not fierce, and after killing more than a dozen pirates who were unwilling to surrender, the rest of the pirates were honest and obediently threw away their weapons and surrendered to the Chinese soldiers.

At the end of the jungle battle, Li Han left 50 men to guard the 500 captured pirates, and the remaining 300 people cooperated with Chen Sen's sea fleet to launch a final attack on the pirates entrenched in the pirates.

The black pirates lost more than 700 people in the jungle, and although there were still nearly 1,500 people gathered on the coast, they were faced with the Chinese troops from both sides from the sea to the land.

After the battle of Feilong Island ended quickly, and more than 40 large and small ships and nearly 2,000 prisoners were captured, Chen Sen and Hou Taiyuan discussed, leaving Wang Youtian and 200 soldiers to guard Feilong Island, and the remaining 600 Chinese soldiers and 12 selected pirate ships, with black pirate prisoners as guides, the large group of ships sailed to Tolti Island, the pirate's nest.

The island of Tolti is close to the main island of Haiti, but after the overthrow of Haiti's independent leaders, Haiti quickly fell into a situation of warlordism, and now Haiti has lost Dominica to the east of the island of Haiti, and the mainland is the three major warlords standing together, and the island of Tolti has also become a pirate base after losing the effective rule of the island.

The main force of pirates entrenched on Tolti Island was swept away by the Chinese Independence Army, and when the fleet led by Chen Sen and Hou Taiyuan arrived on Tolti Island, they quickly occupied the island with no troops, and the wealth accumulated by the local pirates for decades also belonged to the Chinese Independence Army.

Tolti's black pirates were relatively poor, and although the wealth they had accumulated was not as good as that of their predecessors, the Caribbean pirates, but the wealth accumulated over the decades was also a large amount, and with the captured pirate wealth, it was of great help for the Chinese Independence Army to gain a foothold in the Caribbean Sea, relieving the logistical pressure on the Caribbean fleet in Rio Grande do Sul.
