Chapter 471: Zheng Hongkui escaped

Zheng Sanhu fled, and there was a burst of cheers from the Ningbo Water Village.

There is no doubt that this is a big victory for the Den Lai Marine. More crucially, they didn't pay a heavy price for this big victory.

It's nothing more than a few long boats and fast crabs. This thing is extremely cheap to build, and exchanging this bargain for the rebels' expensive fortune ship is a bloody bargain.

Of course, what is more important is that the Denglai Sailor has played momentum and self-confidence through this battle.

After all, the opponent is not an ordinary cat or dog, but the Zheng sailor of the Megatron world.

Their ability to defeat the rebels is proof enough that they are one of the most powerful sailors in the world today.

Zheng Chenggong was not blindly optimistic. Because he knew that this battle did not completely crush the rebels. Zheng Sanhu will definitely lead his troops to come back. And the next rebel attack will be even more ferocious.

He had to be well prepared for this fierce battle.

During the rare truce, Zheng Chenggong ordered his soldiers to repair the damaged warships and the water village.

Although it may not be able to be repaired as before, it can at least be done.

The advantage of the Denglai Sailor is that he is backed by a water village and can get sufficient supplies.

And the rebels have come from afar, and if they can't win a big victory in one go, they are likely to be exhausted.

The most lethal thing is their lack of a place to stay.

From this point of view, it is particularly crucial for the Denglai Sailor to recover Jiushan Island.

This move completely hit the rebels seven inches above them, leaving them in disarray.

Of course, the Denglai Sailor also has disadvantages. Its biggest disadvantage is that the size of the sailors is not as large as the rebels.

Even if it is full of calculations, the Denglai Sailor is barely two-thirds of the rebels.

If it really opens up a formation on the vast sea, the Denglai Navy Division may not be the opponent of the rebels.

After all, naval warfare is not as good as land warfare, and strong ships and guns are king. Whoever has a hard fist is the strongest.

Zheng Chenggong was ready to defeat the rebels first, and then lead his troops to fight the harvest when their morale was at the bottom.

...

...

Zheng Sanhu, who escaped from the sea of fire, was furious, and was put on a position by Zheng Chenggong like this, and damaged more than a dozen warships, which was a great shame!

You must know that these are good large fortune ships, and each one needs to be built at a great cost. That is to say, the Zheng family is wealthy, where can ordinary people afford such an expensive ship?

But such an expensive fortune ship was burned by Zheng Chenggong. Where is the ship burned, it is clearly gold and silver!

If this revenge is not avenged, what face will he have to lead the army of sailors?

However, the first thing Zheng Sanhu needs to consider now is not revenge, but to study and study how to break the iron bucket array of Ningbo Water Village.

Otherwise, even if you kill it again, I'm afraid you will still have to hit a wall.

...

...

Zheng Hongkui was confined in a secluded courtyard, although he did not worry about eating and drinking, but he had no freedom at all.

I can only move in the yard every day, and I have nothing else to do except tending to the flowers and plants, and the whole person is about to go crazy.

After all, he trusted his brother too much.

Zheng Hongkui has always been the only one who is Zheng Zhilong.

In his eyes, his brother is heaven.

Since it is heaven, he will definitely not make mistakes, he just needs to follow his brother.

It wasn't until he learned that his brother had decided to "support" King Gui's rebellion and had a relationship with Tartar that he realized that his brother would make mistakes too.

And it's a big mistake.

This move may push the Zheng family into the abyss from which it will never recover. It was because he had to intervene, who would have thought that he would break up unhappily with his brother.

Zheng Hongkui admitted that the Zheng family was able to have what it is today because of his brother alone.

But that doesn't mean that the elder brother can push the family into the quagmire!

Wrong is wrong. What's not to admit?

What Zheng Hongkui has to do is to persuade his brother to change his mind before he makes a big mistake.

It's a pity that my brother didn't give him this opportunity.

Zheng Hongkui would never have thought that his brother would attack him.

When his brother sent troops to surround his mansion, Zheng Hongkui's heart was cold.

He knew that his brother was a very stubborn person.

Since even he can't stop it, it seems that there is no possibility of maneuvering in this matter.

Zheng Hongkui was confined in this small courtyard, and he could only watch the Zheng family walk towards the abyss step by step, and his heart was like a knife.

Today, as usual, he squatted on the ground to trim the flowers and plants, and heard a shout from outside the courtyard.

Zheng Hongkui couldn't help frowning.

It's too early for someone to deliver food today, right?

He didn't realize it and continued to prune the flowers and plants.

But the shouts outside the courtyard became louder and louder, and finally the courtyard door was pushed open.

Zheng Hongkui couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to see a team of soldiers in armor rushing in.

Zheng Hongkui couldn't help but be shocked, didn't there be something big happening in this posture?

"What are you going to do?"

Although Zheng Hongkui's current identity is just a prisoner who has been imprisoned, the momentum brought by the person who has been in the position for a long time can still make him look at everyone majestically.

"General, we're here to save you."

"Yes, General, the ship is ready at the docks, so please come with us quickly."

"You are..."

Zheng Hongkui was stunned for a moment. According to the character of the elder brother, any opposition will definitely be suppressed.

How did these people break through all the obstacles to save themselves?

"General, this matter is a long story, and I will explain it to you slowly after my subordinates. Now you better come with us! This place is not to stay for long! ”

Zheng Hongkui was excited in his heart. Of course, he was not willing to be confined in this small courtyard for the rest of his life.

He clenched his fists and said, "Okay, let's go!" ”

A group of people surrounded Zheng Hongkui out of the courtyard. The horses outside the courtyard had already been prepared, and they turned over their horses one after another, beat their horses and whipped away.

Needless to say, the direction is heading straight for the pier.

Hundreds of riders through the streets and alleys naturally attract countless attention.

But the people of the city did not say much.

In this world, there are more words and more mistakes, less words and fewer mistakes, and it is not good to say nothing.

The more you talk, the more you can't get away with yourself.

Regained his freedom, Zheng Hongkui was overjoyed in his heart.

He whipped his horse desperately, for fear that the beast under his crotch would run too slowly and be caught up by the pursuers sent by Zheng Zhilong.

When they arrived at the pier and saw the ships that had already been parked there, Zheng Hongkui breathed a sigh of relief.

"The military will not be delayed, please hurry up and get on the ship."

Zheng Hongkui nodded and said yes softly, and then walked quickly towards the springboard.

He skillfully stepped on the gangplank to the ship, and a group of soldiers also boarded the ship.

When everyone was on board, they untied the ropes tied to the stakes, spread the sails and departed.

Seeing the ship going farther and farther, heading towards the depths of the sea, Zheng Hongkui could no longer hide the excitement in his heart and roared wildly.

"Hahaha, Lao Tzu escaped!"

Zheng Hongkui was in a good mood and took the initiative to ask about the soldiers who rescued him.

It turned out that these were all people who opposed Zheng Zhilong's secret communication with Dongyu and supported King Gui.

They have always dared to be angry but dare not speak, and after learning that Zheng Hongkui was imprisoned for opposing Zheng Zhilong's army, they couldn't bear it anymore and decided to rescue Zheng Hongkui.

After some careful planning, they suddenly attacked and rescued Zheng Hongkui.

According to the plan, they would flee by sea, and this would be the fastest way to escape.

They hurried to the dock and then got on the boat and went to sea. The whole process is very smooth and never muddy.

It's just that Zheng Hongkui is still a little unclear, where did they go to settle down when they fled like this?

After all, Zheng Zhilong has already raised troops to rebel, and he is already regarded as a traitor in the imperial court.

These Zheng clan members have long been marked with strong marks, and it is not easy to wash away the suspicion on their bodies.

These soldiers obviously don't have any ideas, they just want to take one step at a time, and if they can't do it, they will go to their old job and be a pirate.

Zheng Hongkui didn't want to be a Haikou anymore. After thinking about it, he felt that the only way out was to go to his nephew Zheng Sen.

Now his precious nephew is a celebrity in front of the Son of Heaven, serving as the commander of the Denglai Water Division and presiding over the affairs of Zhejiang Pingwei.

Zheng Hongkui has a good relationship with his nephew, and if he goes to Zheng Sen, he will definitely not refuse.

After thinking about it, Zheng Hongkui immediately ordered to march to Zhejiang.

These soldiers are all lacking in ideas, how can they refuse now that they have a backbone?

When they thought that they could go to the young master, they were all overjoyed.

It's a never-ending road.

...

...

In the depths of the sea, the water is black.

Zheng Hongkui stood on the deck and squinted into the distance, and could not see anything else except the sparkling sea.

Not even a single reef.

They were just in time for the tailwind, and the sails were all raised and fully charged, and they were now far away from Nan'an.

Zheng Hongkui believed that even if his brother sent someone to chase him, it would be impossible to catch up with him.

According to Zheng Hongkui's experience, it will not take them a few days to reach the coast of Zhejiang.

It's just that he doesn't know where to go to find his precious nephew.

After all, there are too many prefectures and counties along the coast of Zhejiang, but there are also many good ports where water supply divisions are stationed.

Zheng Hongkui heard that the sailors under the command of his precious nephew defeated Zheng Sanhu in the waters of Ningbo and recovered Jiushan Island. But now it's hard to say that Zheng Sen is not in Ningbo. Maybe he's gone elsewhere?

However, Zheng Hongkui still decided to try his luck in Ningbo first.

This is the only information he has now, and he would rather believe it than not.

In the past few days of going to sea, Zheng Hongkui's mood has gradually calmed down. He was trying to think about what he should say when he met his nephew.

His nephew is no longer the chick who only supports his father's wings.

On the contrary, Zheng Sen is now an eagle with wings spreading, eager to make a career and make a great achievement.

Of course, Zheng Hongkui knew that Zheng Sen had chosen to serve the imperial court, and he would provide useful information to his nephew.
