Qin Rigang stayed on a transport ship converted from a large warship with its guns removed, and his heart became a little worried. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Since he broke up with Luo Outline that day, Luo Outline has not seen him again. I stayed on the ship for two days.

Although his soldiers could eat enough twice a day, they didn't say much, but Qin Rigang thought, where will this Luo Dagang transport himself?

He was not the only one who was worried, but on this day, Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun on the other boat couldn't sit still, so they deliberately took a small boat to Qin Rigang's big ship to discuss with him.

In the end, Qin Rigang decided to ask Luo Outline for clarification, and asked him to send himself and other Northern Expeditionary Army soldiers back to Tianjing directly from the sea.

Call the sailors on the ship and ask him to send a message to Luo Xuan, asking to meet and discuss.

Two hours later, the sailor came back and brought back a reply from Luo Outline: Master Luo was busy with affairs and had no time to see each other for the time being; The fleet was already seriously short of food, and more than a dozen ships were damaged by waves and reefs and needed to be repaired, and they were about to dock to find supplies.

When Qin Rigang heard this, when he saw the surplus food on the ship, it was really only enough for two or three days, so he had to ask everyone to wait patiently, but he was even more suspicious in his heart.

Not long after the sailor finished speaking, sure enough, Qin Rigang saw the land. At this time, Qin Rigang didn't know where this was, he had never been to the sea, and he couldn't figure out the direction at all, but he saw the sun rising from the sea.

After another half a day's sailing, by noon the fleet was approaching land.

It seems that Luo Xuan and they are going to dock here and look for supplies.

But the strange thing is that when the fleet reached the edge of the land, it did not come directly to the shore, but sailed around the shore of the land, and sailed for another hour and a half, and then found a bay, brought all the transport ships to the shore, and let everyone disembark and disembark.

The officers and men of the Northern Expeditionary Army were already panicked on the ship, and they all got off the ship one after another. Qin Rigang was also surrounded by all the soldiers and was about to get off the ship, when he suddenly heard a few roaring cannons, but outside the bay, a team of warships flying the flag of the Qing Dynasty fired at them.

It's the water master of the Qing Demon!

Qin Rigang's face changed, and he hurriedly took the first step, hurriedly got off the ship, and beckoned the Taiping soldiers on the rest of the transport ships to hurry ashore.

At this time, the staff officer who knew him at the earliest came to Qin Rigang and said: "King Yan, although I have many warships of the captured army, they are all seriously damaged when attacking the Dagukou Fort, and the gunpowder cannons are exhausted, and I am unable to fight against the Qing Demon Water Division, and I also ask King Yan to lead your army to camp on this land for a month or two, and when I ask the captured army and water division to go back to replenish it, I will come to meet your army immediately!" ”

After saying that, he left another hand-drawn map of the battle, and left in a hurry.

Those sailors also sailed one after another, braving the cannon fire of the Demon Sailor, and left in a hurry.

And the Qing Demon Sailor circled for a moment, rushed up, and fired a few cannons at the Taiping soldiers who had already gone ashore, driving everyone to the shore and leaving the sea far away.

Qin Rigang couldn't help but be stunned!

What's going on? That's a coincidence, isn't it?

As soon as Lao Tzu asked to see Luo Outline and ask where he was going, you found that there was a shortage of food to replenish, and the warship was seriously damaged and needed to be repaired, so why did you go earlier?

Then they immediately docked. This landing, but also around the coast, specifically looking for this bay, as a result, attracted the Qing Demon Water Master, this is too much of a coincidence!

Moreover, these captive sailors seemed to be braving artillery fire and fled in a very dangerous boat, but no matter how you look at the situation, it was orderly, and there was no urgent panic from the Qing demon at all.

This Qing Demon Sailor was even more speechless, firing cannons from afar, and the shells didn't know where to go, it seemed to be violent, but he didn't get close to the coast for a long time, and he didn't fire at the transport ship in the water, but at the Taiping army on the shore! As soon as the convoy of the captives left, they found the appearance of the target and hurriedly pursued the contenders.

In addition, the hundreds of warships of Na Luo and others, especially the Western warships, sailed far ahead in the morning, and had no intention of escorting the transport ships behind. This time, the Qing Demon Water Master called, but he didn't come back to fight back, he just ran away, is this still Luo Xuan's character?

Qin Rigang reacted a little, and always felt that something was wrong.

Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun also brought people over and asked Qin Rigang how to do it.

Also, the soldiers of the Taiping Army were accustomed to being on land, and they were suddenly carried to the sea, sailed for two or three days, and then suddenly got off the ship inexplicably, and were thrown in a strange place.

Qin Rigang remembered a map that the staff officer had given him, and when he opened it, there were a few red dots on the map, and a few words were marked on it.

Qin Rigang didn't know the words, so he handed the map to Zhu Xikun and said, "Prime Minister Zhu, look at this map, see where we are now, where should we go?" ”

Zhu Xikun took the map and looked at it, and found a red dot marking their location: Qingniwa in Ninghai County, Fengtianfu, Shengjing. Moreover, not only here, but also several other places are marked with red dots, one of the largest red dots is marked with Ninghai County, more than 500 Qing demons, and a large amount of food.

Next to this Ninghai county, there is a red dot again, and the map is marked with "Nanguanling Village", which reads three hundred demons. In addition, there are several red dots, all of which are small villages, and Zhu Xikun also noticed that there is a water division camp written next to the green mud hole.

Zhu Xikun easily understood this map, and explained it to Qin Rigang.

Qin Rigang now completely understood, this is a ploy by Luo Xuan or Feng Yunshan, the king of the South, who specially arranged this way to send himself and these Northern Expeditionary Army to this place surrounded by the sea on three sides, so that he could disturb the Qing Demon.

Moreover, Qin Rigang, who understood it, suspected that those Clear Demon Water Masters had already been eliminated by Luo Outline, and those Clear Demon Water Masters who appeared were only afraid that they were all played by Luo Outline themselves, only when they thought about it in this way, those strange things would have a reasonable explanation.

However, even if he knew about the plans of King Nan and Luo Gang, Qin Rigang did not complain about them, on the contrary, he had some expectations in his heart. A long-budding thought, at this moment, spread rapidly in the bottom of his heart, growing rapidly, until it occupied his entire mind.

Nanwang Feng Yunshan can, why can't I, Qin Rigang?

The Ninghai county town marked with this big red dot is on the side of the couple, and the nearest state and county to it is Fuzhou, which is also nearly two hundred miles away, and Fengtianfu City is six or seven hundred miles away from Ninghai County, isn't this an excellent foundation place?

As long as it occupies Ninghai County, it has a large piece of territory. Not only that, Qin Rigang noticed that the map showed that half of the land of Ninghai County was a peninsula, surrounded by the sea on three sides, and that in Ninghai County and Nanguanling Village, it was a narrow land, only less than 10 li, and as long as the 10-mile defense line connected by Ninghai County and Nanguanling Village was held, this peninsula could be completely occupied. Unless the sailor attacks, no matter how many demons there are, it will be difficult to recover.

This is simply a treasure land specially built for himself, although the area is a little smaller, but the range of three or four hundred miles is enough for the time being.

Qin Rigang's heart suddenly became hot. An irrepressible thought completely erupted. He wants to be the real King of Yan, not the puppet prince of the Heavenly King Dongwang.

Thinking of this, Qin Rigang already knew the direction of his next step, but before that, he had to solve two people first: Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun.

Qin Rigang, who had made up his mind, ordered that Huang Wenjin, Qingtianyi, lead 500 soldiers to conquer the "Nanguanling Village" at all costs, while Zhu Xikun, the prime minister of Qiuguanzheng, led a thousand soldiers to conquer Ninghai County at any cost.

He sent the Taiping army to recover the surrounding towns. He personally led 2,500 men and marched slowly, saying that he was supporting Zhu Xikun in attacking Ninghai County, but he bypassed Ninghai County and built an earthen wall in a narrow place to connect Ninghai County and Nanguanling Village, and at the same time enclosed all the peninsula areas, including Ninghai County.

In this way, as long as the county seat of Ninghai is captured, the entire peninsula will be surnamed Qin.
