The Fujian sailors, who had fled to Penghu Island, had just docked on the shore to rest for a few hours when they heard the alarm of an enemy attack. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But it turned out to be a naval division who was captive, followed all the way, and attacked.

This time, Luo Xuan was completely ruthless, and wanted to kill the entire Fujian Navy Division to the point that it was no longer combat-powered, and sweep away the Qing Army Navy Division in the entire Fujian Sea. He led nearly 200 medium and large warships to quietly surround the sea of Penghu, calculate the time, and when the sky was just dawn and the people were most sleepy, the warships of the captured army happened to be killed.

Not long after getting off the ship, as soon as he lay on the wooden bed in the military camp on the island, Shi Degao was woken up by his own soldiers. As soon as he heard that the Yue thief was coming again, the first thought that rose in Shi De's mind was to withdraw. Fortunately, he sent a few sentinel ships to guard the waters around the Penghu Islands and discovered the enemy in advance, otherwise, he would really be wrapped dumplings.

But even so, it still made the Qing army a little bombed.

This time, Luo Jian came prepared, calculated the right time, and bit the Qing army's sailors, where would he let it slip away so easily. Many Qing soldiers had not yet woken up from their sleep when they found that their warships had been hit by shells. Some Qing troops simply hung up their sails and took advantage of the southeast wind to flee to the area of Fuzhou Prefecture in the northwest.

The entire Qing army has lost its command. The general soldiers of Haitan Town and Funing Town were afraid that their already small sailors would be hit hard, so they led their subordinates to break through and flee all the way to the north. And the remaining Qing army generals in the water division of Moswan Town, but because they returned to their own territory, they all landed and returned to the camp to rest, so they were the same as Admiral Shi Degao, and the captives were killed before they got on the boat.

The one-sided artillery bombardment killed, and the Qing army's naval division suffered heavy losses.

Two hours later, the battle ended, except for the fleeing Haitan Town General Soldier and Funing Town General Soldier led more than 2,000 Qing soldiers and fled in more than 50 warships, the rest only a deputy general of the Moss Bay Naval Division led 400 Qing troops and fled in more than 10 warships. Han Jiamo, the chief soldier of the Nanao Naval Division, was captured, and Shi Degao, the commander of the Fujian Naval Division, and Hengyu, the general soldier of Mowan Town, were both killed in battle.

And after this battle, the strength of the Fujian Water Division was greatly reduced, and it was no longer the enemy of the Capture Army Water Division.

Luo Jian rented two clippers from the foreigners in Xiamen as the ships for the transmission of the telegram, and quickly transmitted the good news of the two naval victories in Kinmen and Penghu back to Guangzhou.

A few days later, Feng Yunshan received the news that the Naval Division of the Capture Army had defeated the Fujian Naval Division, and immediately ordered someone to bring a map to inspect the situation.

The Fujian Naval Division was defeated, and the Qing army no longer had a large-scale naval division force, and from then on, the Naval Division of the Capture Army became the only powerful naval division in China! From this point of view, this is more significant than the capture of the provincial capital.

Think about it, in the future, you will be able to lead this fleet to crisscross the coastal area, harass the Manchus, and make them garrison everywhere along the coast, and the soldiers and silver spent will drag down the Manchu court.

Moreover, the entire Moss Bay Island is like undefended land, all presented in front of Feng Yunshan's eyes! It's a lot of land! Although it is only a land of the province at the moment, it has not been well developed, and the population is not large, but the area is there, and it is an island, so it is an ideal place for immigrants.

In addition, for Chen Dingao, the chief soldier of Kinmen Town, who surrendered, this is the highest-ranking military general who surrendered from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Feng Yunshan appointed him as the deputy commander of the Fifth Division, and will be rewarded after returning to Guangzhou! The rest of the generals at all levels of the Kinmen Town Water Division who abandoned the darkness and turned to the light also had their own rewards and appointments. At the same time, Feng Yunshan demanded that these surrendered sailors continue to make meritorious contributions and continue to fight with the captured sailors.

Then, Feng Yunshan immediately ordered Luo Xuan and Liang Peiyou to lead the sailors to continue to attack the coastal area of Fujian, focusing on harassing the Fuzhou Fucheng. The rest of the army, Lin Fengxiang's First Division, and the Xiamen Xiaodaohui Righteous Army, continued to conquer Quanzhou and Xinghua.

The 1st Division, which had already conquered Tingzhou Prefecture and Longyan Prefecture, under the leadership of the division commander He Lu, continued to the north and attacked Yanping Mansion, Jianning Mansion and other places, which are the main tea-producing areas of Fujian and must be firmly controlled in their hands.

Feng Yunshan knew that tea was the largest commodity traded with foreigners except raw silk. Controlling Fujian's tea is equivalent to controlling half of the tea trade.

……

While waiting for Feng Yunshan's order, the captive army was not idle. Luo Xuan, who did not stop doing two things, directly led the Western warships, plus the strength of a regiment of marine divisions, and drove directly from Penghu Island to Moswanfucheng.

On 13 April, when the fleet of the 5th Division arrived in the waters of Luermen, it was discovered by the patrolling Sailors of Moss Wan Fucheng, but most of the main force of the Sailors of Moss Wan Town had been wiped out, and only a few warships remained, that is, they drove down the merchant ships, and even large-scale pirates did not dare to provoke them.

The 5th Division easily landed at the port from Anping Town, and first sent two prisoners to enter the capital city of Taiwan with a surrender letter. Zhu Caizhe, the prefect of Mowan Prefecture, was a Hakka person in Fujian, and he had long heard that the captive army in Guangdong was kind to the Hakka people, so he intended to surrender. However, the sub-patrol of the Moss Bay Bingbei Daotai Yuduo was a full banner man, and the military power was in his hands, and he ordered to stick to the city and not go out.

Helpless, Luo Outline ordered the siege of the city, but the naval guns on the warship could not attack the city, so Luo Outline ordered the artillery on the medium-sized warship to be removed, pushed to the city, dozens of artillery salvos, and soon, Daotai Yuduo's face was like earth, and he was too frightened to stay on the city wall.

So, the Hakka people in the city, under the leadership of Zhu Caizhe, the governor of Moss Wan Prefecture, opened the city gate and welcomed the captive army into the city.

Luo Outline captured nearly 100 Manchu bannermen in the city, publicly beheaded and executed at the city gate, and declared that Moss Bay was the world of Han people. Especially the remnants of the Zheng family, some scholars were also led by the prefect Zhu Caizhe, and they took refuge in the army.

Because of the meritorious service of the former prefect Zhu Caizhe, Luo Outline appointed him as the prefect of Taiwan to govern the territory and the people.

Zhu Caizhe hurriedly issued an official document on the governance of the government, proclaiming that he would break away from the Manchu court and return to the rule of Feng Yunshan, the holy king of the Han people. He also ordered the counties of Moss Bay to change their flags and submit to the jurisdiction of the Holy King.

Luo Xuan left a regiment of troops, and together with hundreds of soldiers temporarily formed by the prefect Zhu Caizhe, he began to clear the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Tainan, Taichung, and Taipei.

However, there are not many troops in Moss Bay, mainly the water division of Moss Wan Town. As for the Chengxun Green Battalion soldiers in each county, most of them are vulnerable and have no combat power, so they naturally will not resist with the captive army without their own strength.

However, what Luo Xuan didn't expect was that not long after he left the capital city of Taiwan, the army had not yet left Tainan, and all parts of Moss Wan Mansion heard that the city of Moss Wan was captured by the captive army, and even the prefect Zhu Caizhe also took refuge in the Holy King, so they asked the prefect to express his position and submit to the Holy King.

Soon, the three counties of Moss Wan County, Fengshan County, and Chiayi County all quickly sent people to express their submission to the Holy King, and Changhua County and Tamsui County did not wait for the county to express their position, and there was a large-scale gathering of the Xiaodaohui rebels, and thousands of congregations rushed into the county office, tied up the Zhixian Wuhua, and burned them alive in the city tower.

So far, in more than half a month, the county governors of most areas of Moss Wan Province have at least announced their submission to the Holy King. The remaining remote barbarian areas need to be governed by local officials to continue to educate. (To be continued.) )
