The huge explosion shook everyone's ears, and the Jurchen war horses raised their front hooves and stood up.

It took a moment of appeasement for the Jurchen soldiers to calm down the irascible horses, and when they looked at the ice, they were speechless.

I saw that the sea ice, which was originally as smooth as a mirror, was blown apart, and scattered ice cubes mixed with the limbs of people and horses splashed everywhere.

The ice was also blown into several cracks, and the slow-flowing sea water below was clearly visible. Except for two or three kittens, the centaurs who had run there were still standing in place, and the others were either killed or lying on the ground wailing.

The previously clean ice surface was dyed red, and the cracks in the ice surface continued to grow larger and wider, stretching into the distance.

At this time, Mang Gurtai felt that the weather did not seem to be as cold as a few days ago, and the coldest days in Liaodong had passed. The ice in front of me doesn't seem to be as solid as it was a few days ago, so can I still attack like Amin?

Even if he attacked with all his might, if the Changxing army came to blast like that a few more times, wouldn't all his armor soldiers be buried at the bottom of the sea?

This explosion destroyed Mang Gurtai's confidence, and he did not stop at Beixinkou and returned to Fuzhou with his men.

Zhang Dou in the Beixinkou Fort also pinched a sweat, if Mang Gurtai really ignored the attack, he really couldn't stop the 20,000 Jurchen armor soldiers.

Because after days of fighting, Changsheng Island's ammunition is almost exhausted. The high-intensity battle for more than half a month, the constant roar of large and small artillery, and the firing of thousands of firearms have almost wiped out the stockpile of gunpowder on Changsheng Island.

Some artillery pieces have reached their limits due to the continuous firing of long periods of time. Maybe the next time they fire, they will blow up, and the soldiers of Immortal Island are also exhausted and unable to fight again.

If Mang Gurtai ignores the attack, Zhang Dou has only one way to go. As long as he can drag it out until the spring flowers bloom, as soon as the sea ship enters the strait, he no longer has to fear the attack of the Jurchens.

Fortunately, the Jurchens could not afford to lose, and their armor soldiers had reached the point of being overstretched. If they lose a large number of armor soldiers again, they will shrink their defense without attacking the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, the birth of the Jurchens in the north, the Mongols in the west, the Ming in the south, and the Koreans in the east were surrounded on all sides, and it was the day of their defeat.

Although the Jurchens hated Changsheng Island to the core, they had to withdraw their troops and garrison Fuzhou to find an opportunity to fight Changsheng Island again.

The Jurchens were not afraid that Changsheng Island would become stronger and stronger, and the island itself limited the development of Changsheng Island. It is impossible for there to be more than 10,000 soldiers on Changsheng Island, and no matter how many Changsheng Islands there are, they can't fit it.

Therefore, Mang Gurtai only needs to sit in Fuzhou and put pressure on Changsheng Island, so that he can't divide his troops to attack all parts of Liaodong. Therefore, Mang Gurtai withdrew and left only 5,000 armor soldiers to sit in Fuzhou, and all the remaining armor soldiers were transferred.

In this battle to defend Changsheng Island, more than 3,000 Jurchen armor soldiers were annihilated, and the Han army flag also had 6,000, and the victory of nearly 10,000 was enough to make the ministers of the court and the central government smash their glasses.

Changsheng Island's own losses were not small, and there were more than 1,300 Changxing troops killed in the battle alone. More than 400 people were injured and disabled, and countless more were slightly injured. This time both sides suffered heavy casualties, and both sides were exhausted and needed a break before they could continue fighting.

This time, Sun Yuanhua wrote the report, Cao Huachun, the superintendent, and Gao Qiliang, the Jinyi Wei, all shared a lot of credit on it, and everything was happy.

Not long after the report was sent, Zhang Dou received a document from the Ministry of War. His Changxing army rushed to Guangning Fort within half a month to obey the dispatch of the governor Wang Huazhen, and attacked Jiannu with Liu Qu, Qi Bing, and Zu Dashou!

This order immediately put Zhang Dou in a dilemma, Guangning is the interior of Liaodong, close to the three departments of Duoyan. If the Changxing Army goes there, it will be too far away from Changsheng Island, can it come back when it gets there?

Moreover, in Zhang Dou's memory, during this time, the Ming Dynasty not only lost the battle of Guangning Fort, but also was captured by Nurhachi more than 40 tunbao.

After the war, Nurhachi also killed tens of thousands of people in western Liaoxi by the Liao River, and the bones were piled up. Can you have avoided this?

With the urine nature of the Ming civil official, the possibility of being sent out as cannon fodder is very high. If you don't know if it's the end of the whole army, it's better to go by yourself?

Moreover, the Jurchens here still have 5,000 armor soldiers in Fuzhou, is it really appropriate to leave Changsheng Island at this time?

Just as he hesitated, the Shadow sent another message. Mang Gurtai withdrew most of the Jurchens, leaving only 5,000 armor soldiers to garrison Fuzhou.

Zhang Dou found the map, spread it out on the table, and looked at it carefully, and it took a whole night for Zhang Dou to leave his study.

When he came to the living room, it was already full of tired people.

Sun Yuanhua was the first to ask: "Virtuous son-in-law! Have you decided whether to send troops to Quang Ninh? From the bottom of his heart, Sun Yuanhua still hopes that Zhang Dou will send troops. As a traditional literati, he did not want Zhang Dou to fall out with the imperial court.

The development of Changsheng Island is inseparable from the support of the imperial court, if the imperial court cuts off the supply of food and other materials to Changsheng Island, Changsheng Island will not be able to hold on at all.

But Changsheng Island has just experienced a big war, and everyone can see that the Changxing army is exhausted. In such a state, can the Changxing Army still be the opponent of the wolf-like Jiannu?

Besides, the wedding date of Zhang Dou and Sun Yuxiu has been delayed, and Sun Yuanhua really doesn't want to delay the wedding any longer.

Extremely contradictory, after he asked this sentence, he not only hoped that Zhang Dou would agree to send troops, but also hoped that Zhang Dou could stay on Changsheng Island.

Several other people also looked at Zhang Dou with nervous faces, and they were waiting here to know Zhang Dou's decision as soon as possible.

Zhang Dou looked at the people in the living room and said, "Everyone prepare with all your might!" Seven days later, troops were sent to Quang Ninh! ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when he made his decision, since Zhang Dou decided to send troops, then they went all out to prepare.

Sun Yuanhua looked at Zhang Dou, and for a while he didn't know what to say. He finally said a sentence from his mouth before leaving, "Three days later, I will marry Yuxiu, and your kid will come back alive." The old man doesn't want his daughter to be widowed at a young age! ”

The entire Changsheng Island began to get busy after Zhang Dou's order was issued, and almost all of the workshop area was working overtime to produce the materials needed for this expedition.

Zhang Dou was also busy cremating the remains of soldiers after the war and placing them in the martyrs' shrine on the mountain. There will be some more tombstones on the hill behind the Martyrs' Shrine, and Zhang Dou personally presided over the burial ceremony of the soldiers.

He stood in front of thousands of soldiers and said loudly: "Warriors of the Changxing Army! It was your bloody battles that kept the island safe, and it was your heroic sacrifices that allowed more people to live and work in peace and contentment. Now some of you are buried on this mountain, but their loyal souls are immortal, they will be worshiped by the incense of future generations forever, the Changxing Army will never forget them, and their names will always be remembered in our hearts! ”
