When they hit Nanwuli Port, the other party was really solemn.

It's a pity that there is no artillery in the country of Nanwuli. So there is no effective means of countering Dayuan's fleet.

But they are not bad brains, and they even whimsically want to burn the ship by fire attack. I saw several sea ships blocking the waterway in front of Dayuan. Although, judging by the width of the waterway, the enemy water boats were completely inadequate.

But their existence is really an eyesore.

Li Dahai gave the order to go down, and all the ships did not slow down. At the same time, the guns were aimed at the ships that were in the way, so that the people in Nanwuli could be quietly powerful.

At this time, on the lighthouse of the port, the admiral of Sriwijaya Hua Rabuhua looked at the situation at sea with a thousand miles mirror.

Since Dayuan built the first lighthouse in Karachi, many lighthouses have been built on the sea. Places like Mumbai, Colombo, Port Allah, etc., all have bright lighthouses to point the way for passing ships.

This has helped to reduce the occurrence of shipwrecks.

As a result, the countries along the Strait of Malacca have all risen up to build lighthouses. The first lighthouse was built in the port of Manraka, and now along the coast of Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula, one after the other.

Standing on the lighthouse, Hua Rabuhua also felt that his vision had broadened a lot.

"Pass the order, you can light the fire!" , Khwara does not spend ordered.

The general of Nanwuli, who was waiting on the side, immediately trotted down to do something.

In Li Dahai's eyes, the ships blocking the waterway moved. One by one, they lit fires, and the sea was full of flames.

Not only that, but the ships were also loaded with oil. When ignited, the liquid flows into the sea. The fire then ignited, making the fire at sea even bigger.

When Li Dahai saw it, he had to let the fleet detour.

"Damn! They're here to procrastinate! ", a general shouted.

The Khwara on the shore couldn't hear the complaints of the Dayuan admirals, but he also guessed that the Dayuan soldiers must be in a bad mood. Because sparing this waterway, the time will definitely be an hour or two more.

Especially in this windless zone, turning at sea can only be stepped on by people. That's definitely a lot of time. The battle on Manraka's side will also be able to grasp a little more victory.

He's not stupid in the end!

I know that compared with Dayuan's sea ships, the sea ships of Srivijaya will definitely go to die. So at sea, he didn't intend to fight Dayuan at all. So he devised such a delaying method, so that before the Great Yuan navy reached Manraka, he would capture the city of Manraka.

This is also the focus of this Sriwijaya naval battle!

Knowing that he could not bargain at sea, he wanted to find victory on land. Therefore, the nail of the Great Yuan of Manraka was pulled out, so that the Great Yuan could not land on the coast of Malacca.

And supplies are needed at sea!

Without material replenishment, it is impossible for Dayuan to spend too long in Malacca. By then, the initiative in the negotiations will be in the hands of Sriwijayaya.

For example, it would be better to take back the taxing power that Da Yuan had taken away.

The war has just started here, and the situation on the other side of Manraka is not optimistic.

The city of Water near the port had been completely captured by the Sriwijaya coalition, and Pahang, Kelantan, Riroting, Teng Yanon (Terengganu) and other countries were also forced or lured by Sriwijaya to send troops to attack Manjakha's back.

This small city, which has been changed to Dongzhu Port for less than a year, is facing the biggest crisis since the establishment of the city.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Li Zhaoxing was carefully looking at the written report of the defenders' battle damage.

He was a native of the Song Dynasty in Nanyang.

The ancestors came up early!

When the capital of the Song Kingdom was still Kaifeng, he made a living in Manraka. Although the local Song people were generally wealthy, they were also exploited by the local princes and nobles.

Even if these small countries have played the banner of tribute, they went to the Song State and recognized a suzerainty and came back. But in fact, they did not regard these Song people as the people of the suzerainty and looked down on them.

This situation did not change significantly until Dayuan came.

He has already joined the Dayuan nationality!

For many years in Manraka, the bloodline of his Song people could not be changed. Coupled with the obvious difference in skin color from the natives, the people of Sriwijaya will always regard him as an alien.

But Song Guo will not treat him as a native either. He also thought about returning to his ancestral hometown, but it was a pity that the officials of the Song State still had to treat them as Yi people and would be included in the household register.

Or Dayuan is tolerant!

It doesn't ask about blood, race, or even faith for non-Hui believers. That's what makes him feel weird.

Because Dayuan is a big empire with Hui as the state religion.

All Muslims are allowed to believe in only one denomination, and that is Puritanism. Non-Muslims, on the other hand, are free to worship and do not interfere.

He has seen several cases of Muslims being convicted of not believing in Puritanism.

So he couldn't understand why Dayuan was so strict with his followers of Allah.

But none of this has anything to do with him in the end.

As a son of the Buddha who practiced the Buddha, he would only burn incense and worship the Buddha. When things don't go well, go to the temple to burn incense and pray. In addition, we will do a good job in business and trade, so that our business can be taken to the next level.

But now his wishes have changed again.

I just want to hold the city and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

After all, three months ago, because of his good cooperation with the Dayuan Navy, he was temporarily appointed by Li Dahai as the city lord of Dongzhu Port. Just wait for the official document from the Dayuan cabinet to be approved, then he can remove the temporary generation and become the official city lord.

But happy times are always short-lived.

Not long after he became an official, he suffered this military disaster.

"City Lord, the enemy's offensive is getting bigger and bigger. On the side of the exiled criminals, I'm afraid they don't have the energy to take care of it!", the exiled criminals are all the people and dignitaries of the Great Yuan who were exiled for their crimes.

Among them, most of them are the family members of the local governors who were annexed by the Great Yuan.

After they were sent to Dongzhu Port, Li Dahai considered the benefits of increasing the population, so he reduced their punishment and did not have to do coolies. Instead, like ordinary people, they planted some fields in Dongzhugang and did some ordinary peasant work.

But this time, when Sriwijaya attacked Dongzhu Port, someone acted as the leader of Sriwijayaya. made its sneak attack successful, so that Dongzhu Port suffered a lot of losses. If it weren't for the fact that the spies in ambush on the side of the National Security Division burned the Dayuan sea ship in the end, I am afraid that the loss would have been even greater.

Therefore, the defenders of the city treated the exiled criminals as spies.

"Let's gather them together and send them to Hui'an Temple. No one is allowed to enter or leave until the fighting is over. These people are more or less hostile to Da Yuandu, and when they come overseas, they are likely to have different ideas.

Although not everyone will be used, there will always be a few crazy people who will lose their heads. Therefore, they can only be kept in custody for the time being, so as to prevent future troubles.

"But if someone doesn't obey...," the general hesitated.

"Kill!" , in an emergency, it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let go of one. Whoever wants to make trouble at this time can only let him know how to write the dead word.
