The rapid fall of Qiongzhou was unexpected by the Ming Dynasty, but even if they wanted to recapture Qiongzhou, they were more than willing to do it.

When it comes to the heritage, the Ming Dynasty is still deep, although there are very few real sailors in the kingdom, but when the Hongmen flag is clearly raised against the flag, the Ming Dynasty is just in the civil search and requisition, and then from the Cao Yun Division to send some ships over, and then integrate a huge fleet of more than 200 ships.

Among them, more than 1,000 sea ships occupy the mainstream, and there are not a few large ships with 2,000 materials, just look at the scale and momentum, which is enough to deter countless ill-intentioned people.

But when it really pulls to the surface of the sea and fights the Hongtang fleet, its rabble is exposed.

In the narrow sea area of Kinmen Island alone, the naval fleet hastily built by the Ming Dynasty fought countless times with the thirty warships of the Hongtang fleet blocking the strait, and the final battle loss ratio reached an astonishing 183 to 1, which is still the ratio after the decimal point is omitted.

After the Ming Dynasty naval division lost more than 500 warships, the Hongtang fleet finally lost only three warships.

Moreover, the Hongtang fleet lost the wreckage of these three warships, and they were all recaptured, and did not fall into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, one of them only needs to be towed back to the shipyard for repair, and it can be reborn and quickly put into battle.

Countless ships of all kinds hang sails on the endless surface of the South China Sea, taking advantage of the sea breeze to sail back and forth quickly.

From time to time, there would be a huge thunderous sound on the sea that shook the sky, and then in a certain area where a certain sea ship passed, countless water columns were set off, rushed into the sky, and fell into the sea under the traction of the earth's gravity.

The Hongtang fleet turned around the group of oriental warships behind them, which were a generation behind, and took advantage of the superior steering flexibility and sturdy armor of their warships to defeat the fleet, which was far outnumbered by several times or more than ten times.

The magical change of one plus one is far greater than two, and after the number of warships in the Hongtang fleet reaches thirty, the powerful combat power it can exert is enough to make the Ming Dynasty, a fleet that seems to have hundreds of sea ships, feel terrified.

The navigation skills are no worse than those of the Westerners, and the power of the artillery and the accuracy of the guns carried by the Westerners far exceed those carried by the Westerners, but as soon as the fire is fired, there is always a sea ship in the opposite fleet, which unfortunately becomes the ghost of this sea area.

Until now, the fleet personally commanded by Wu Chao, deputy commander of the Hongtang fleet, was stunned that the fleet of the Ming Dynasty did not let the fleet of the Ming Dynasty rush through the ten miles south of Kinmen Island, and even on Kinmen Island, there were very few Ming officers and soldiers who could rush to this isolated island.

The same scene is shown in the narrow sea area where the Leizhou Peninsula and Qiongzhou want to connect, even if the Ming Dynasty sailors are no longer afraid of sacrifice, it is still difficult to overcome the sea area guarded by the Hongtang fleet.

"Don't they know what to give up? Let us kill countless soldiers for no reason, they don't feel sorry, I feel sorry for them! ”

Niu Qiangwei is now the head of the regiment, and his subordinates control ten elite warships, although he is excited and finally has a great opportunity to make military achievements, but the war has been fought so far, and the gap in combat power between the brushes is too obvious, which makes Niu Qiangwei unable to raise his fighting spirit.

"Sooner or later they will withdraw their troops, until the number of soldiers and ships they sacrifice is more than they can bear."

Niu Qiangxiong, a distant relative from the Niu family, was transferred to his side as the leader of the participating group because it was not easy for Niu Qiangwei to get through various relationships.

The population of the Niu clan on Dayuan Island is not large, and finally a good seedling of the leader has finally emerged, Niu Qiangwei is naturally happy to take it with him and dial one or two, so that he can go further if he is better.

"Yes, you kid has a lot of brains, but you can tell me, when will they quit?"

Niu Qiangwei nodded with satisfaction and continued to teach his relative.

Although Hongmen has tried its best to limit the ugliness of the Chinese culture about the family and the country and the world, the things and ideas that have been passed down for thousands of years cannot be completely reversed by these two generations.

"Xia Guan thinks that it should not be far away!"

"Up to now, although there is no exact number, but in the battle damage report counted by my crew, the Ming Dynasty sailors have lost more than 600 ships, and the loss of sailors is more than 10,000."

Niu Qiangxiong replied confidently.

Although Niu Qiangwei wanted to cultivate him through his relationship, Niu Qiangxiong's own talent and ability were also good, otherwise Niu Qiangwei would not have spent so much cost and energy to transfer him to his side.

"Then what are you waiting for, let the brothers work harder, let the bastards of the Ming Dynasty feel pain, and we will be liberated!"

Although Niu Qiangwei did not express his agreement with Niu Qiangxiong's judgment, he expressed his attitude with practical actions.

"Yes!"

Niu Qiangxiong took the order and left.

Soon, the two warring sides who were a little slack on the sea, and the battlefield became fierce again for a while, and immediately two unlucky Daming sea ships, after suffering a few blows from the guns on board the Hongtang warship, staggered towards the terrifying blue deep sea sinking.

The countless Ming Dynasty sailors on board abandoned the ship and struggled to survive on the sea, the lucky ones boarded the warships of their colleagues to survive, and the unfortunate ones could only watch the ships floating around them, accidentally pressing directly over their bodies and burying themselves at the bottom of the sea; Or simply become the ration of all kinds of carnivorous animals in the deep sea.

failed to hold out until the sun set, and the presiding general of the Ming Dynasty's naval fleet began to flee first and retreat towards the vast coastline in the interior of the Ming Dynasty.

lost the presiding general, and the remaining Ming Dynasty sailor fleet, there were warriors who wanted to fight to the death, and they couldn't hold on any longer, and the final outcome was that one after another heavy and broken sea ships looked north one after another, leaving their fragile backs to the Hongtang fleet that was as nimble as a group of swordfish on the sea.

"Clean up the battlefield, Mingjin collects the troops!"

Niu Qiangwei didn't think about taking advantage of the victory to pursue, the ten warships under his command, even if they caught up with the other party, I am afraid it would be difficult to do much, and they couldn't let their fleet attack the vast Daming inland.
