When the crisis of the Zheng Manor in Batavia was resolved, the night of fighting in the waters of Weigu Island gradually came to an end.

In this head-to-head battle, it can be said that there is no real winner, the combined fleet of the Wyvern Gang and the Crazy Shark Gang, inspired by Zheng Zhilong's personal battle, helped the people to fight against the Western devils without fear of death; Coalition forces such as the European kingdoms, relying on muskets and more well-trained coordination, effectively launched counterattacks.

From day to night, and then from night to day, the two days and two nights of fighting made the losses on both sides extremely heavy.

Up to now, the warships of the two sides, which had a total of more than 50 warships before, either lost their combat effectiveness or simply sank in the repeated exchanges of fire, and in the end there were only less than 20 warships that could fight together, and the number of officers and men on both sides who could finally maintain their combat effectiveness was less than 1,000.

"You can't fight any more, otherwise you won't be able to break through."

With a look of vicissitudes and exhaustion, Lu Yi finally boarded the warship where Zheng Zhilong was at this time, and the sturdy flagship before had sunk into the sea in repeated battles.

"Hmm!"

Zheng Zhilong is not a stubborn person, at this time his goal has been achieved, not only to inflict a heavy loss on most of the strength of the European coalition, but also to make his ally's fleet also suffer heavy losses.

Although their Wyvern Gang fleet also paid a lot of price, but secretly, the Wyvern Gang still has a living force with ten warships and more than 2,000 people, and there is no problem in self-preservation.

At the very least, after this battle, the relationship between the three forces should still tend to be a balance of power, and the other two parties may also have some retention, but their Wyvern Gang has also recovered the situation, so as not to be in an absolute weakness because of this.

"Withdraw!"

With Zheng Zhilong's nod, Lu Yi no longer had any scruples at this time, the signal to collect the troops and retreat sounded, and countless soldiers on both sides who had long lost their fighting spirit breathed a sigh of relief, and the fugitives had no intention of fighting, and rose up to force back the entangled enemy in front of him, turned around and jumped on his own warship, or got on the nearest companion warship; And their opponents did not have the intention of entanglement, and took advantage of the situation when the other party forced them to retreat, let the other party leave, and did not chase and kill too much.

If it weren't for the idea that Zheng Zhilong and Lu Yi insisted on fighting before, and the white generals led by Colonel Lincoln also wanted to finish the battle, otherwise the battle between the two sides would not have been so tragic.

"Forget it, let them go!"

Colonel Lincoln is also helpless, the soldiers under his command are scarred, even if they really want to entangle Zheng Zhilong's army, I am afraid it will be a little difficult, after all, the strength of their coalition army is now seven or eight, even if they were full of confidence when they first planned, but they couldn't stand the Wyvern Gang and its accomplices are so tenacious, which really makes Lincoln feel a little admiration in their hearts, and at the same time, they are not without joy.

Fortunately, everyone was aware of the Flying Dragon Gang before, otherwise they would have been misled by it, and if the Europeans started a fight between them, they would definitely be plotted by the Flying Dragon Gang Zheng Zhilong and a group of guys in the end, and the stepping stone to their rise would be achieved.

There are Hongmen in front of them, and there are Han people like the Flying Dragon Gang in the back, is this ancient country in the East so powerful? Just a group of non-governmental forces have made the white European fleet, which has no rivals across the sea, suffer many losses one after another, from Dayuan Island to Luzon, and even the Indonesian Islands and Jawa, and now their Han people have to intervene in it, which makes the European foreigners have a little worry and hesitation.

It seems that from now on, the power of the Han people can no longer be so careless, at least they cannot be allowed to exist like the local indigenous kingdom forces, otherwise everyone knows when they want to seize the territory of Europe and shake the dominance of Europeans!

"Let's go, it's time to go back and report to His Excellency the Governor!"

Colonel Lincoln waved his hand weakly, although the final goal was not achieved, but it also thwarted the conspiracy of the Wyvern Gang, and killed most of its strength, at least in the short term, he would not worry about the Wyvern Gang finding trouble with his own forces.

“…… Everyone has also seen that the power of the Han people is beyond our imagination, even if we all work together to defeat their conspiracy now, but let's not forget, this group of Han people can operate such a strong strength under our noses, who can guarantee that they will not come back and challenge our dominance in a few years! ”

"Shall we just send letter after letter to the kingdom headquarters asking for their support?"

"Don't forget, we have the current position and strength in the Far East because the nobles and merchants in China think that colonizing this place can be profitable enough. But if they find that the reward is not proportional to the payout, and the pressure brought by the distant transportation routes, they will inevitably give up their support for the Far East, and then let us roll up and go home, and become ordinary members of the kingdom. ”

Before returning to report the results of the battle to Governor Dandell, Colonel Lincoln took the opportunity to invite his European colleagues on Wegu Island to a meeting, and began to painstakingly hook his lips and describe their present predicament to his colleagues.

"Colonel Lincoln is right, we can no longer develop independently of each other like we are now, we should unite everyone, at least to ensure that our status in Jawa and Indonesia is not coveted, enough to protect ourselves!"

Spanish Lieutenant Colonel John nodded, agreeing with Colonel Lincoln's concept, for the Han people they have a thorn in their hearts forever buried in their hearts, that is, the northeast of the ocean that made the Spaniards suffer a big loss.

"If Colonel Lincoln hadn't taken the initiative to inform them of their information channels this time, and showed kindness to us to make this plan, I am afraid that we would have become prisoners of the Wyvern Gang."

"Having lost our armed fleet, think about it, with the remoteness of our colony, if we have to go back and forth to the kingdom to ask for help, and then organize a fleet rescue, can our stronghold hold until that time?"

Lieutenant John was also afraid that if they were defeated again this time, then the Timorese colony that the Spaniards had built up with great difficulty would change hands again, and then they would have to retreat to the west.

"Colonel Lincoln is right, we can't go our separate ways anymore!"

"I actually have this idea, but we are just soldiers, and the one who can really call the shots is our Excellency the Governor!"

The others chimed in, and it seemed that the battle with the Wyvern had also made their proud heads sink and be able to see the current situation in front of them.

"Therefore, I hope that when you return, you will speak to your Excellency the Governor, that we will build a strong and solid alliance."

With an expectant look in his eyes, Lincoln issued an initiative to everyone present.
