Ye Shaolong observed with a telescope for a moment, and gave up without seeing anything. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info then inspected all the fortifications together accompanied by Su Can.

Because of the time constraints, the open space on the pier could not be fully absorbed, and since the musket battalion had only 3,000 men, the scope of the defense was limited.

Fortunately, the turrets on both sides can cover the entire dock, so there is no fear of the captain of the Japanese invaders. But this can only be done on the premise that the cannons of the Japanese ships do not bombard the turrets.

Once the turret is destroyed, it will be enough to rely on the musket battalion to defend it. Ye Shaolong said without worry: "With this kind of defensive ability, it is far from enough, if the Japanese are not afraid of death, our weak defense line will inevitably be easily defeated." ”

Su Can said: "That's true, but these are all our current strength, if we haven't been able to stop the ships of the Japanese Invaders, we can only hope that Cheng Ke's infantry will be able to repel the Japanese Invaders on the shore." ”

Ye Shaolong shook his head and said, "On the shore? Do you think that the pirates are like fish in water at sea, and they will give up their advantage and come ashore to fight with us with bayonets? ”

Su Can was slightly surprised: "What does the handsome mean is that the Japanese will not go ashore?" ”

Ye Shaolong said with certainty: "I will never go ashore." ”

Su Can couldn't figure it out, and asked again: "If they don't go ashore, how can they occupy the coastline, and how can they push us back?" After all, none of us went to the sea? ”

Ye Shaolong smiled and said, "It's very simple, they just need to block our coastline, with them here, we can't even go down to the sea with a plank." Also, their ship's cannons can harass us incessantly. In the long run, we will definitely not be able to hold on, and it is not impossible to withdraw our troops ourselves. ”

Su Can suddenly came over, if he said according to Ye Shaolong, in fact, the Yejiabao army was already at an absolute disadvantage. The chances of winning this battle are slim to none.

"There is an enemy!"

The sentry in charge of the guard on the turret suddenly signaled, Ye Shaolong and Su Can didn't say a word, and immediately ran quickly to check.

In the turret, Ye Shaolong and Su Can snatched the telescope, and according to the guidance of the sentry, they soon found that the figure of the ship appeared faintly on the sea level in the east.

As the ships gradually approached, Ye Shaolong finally saw the flags flying high on those ships, and it was the Japanese who were not wrong.

At first, only a few scattered ships appeared in Ye Shaolong's eyes, but as time went by, he gradually found that no less than twenty ships were quickly heading towards the dock.

"Order the whole army to be on alert!"

Ye Shaolong's head did not return and ordered Su Can beside him.

"Yes!" After Su Can got the order, he immediately waved the order flag to deliver the order.

More and more boats on the sea level gradually appeared in everyone's sight, Ye Shaolong counted a little, there were more than fifty large and small.

A fleet of this size is definitely a giant at sea, when did the Japanese have so many ships? Ye suddenly became puzzled.

But he soon found out that most of the ships were old wooden sea ships, and judging from their shapes, it was not difficult to guess that they should have belonged to the Qing Dynasty before.

Seeing this, Ye Shaolong understood why there were so many ships in this widow. Thinking about it further, maybe half of these thousands of Japanese ships were surrendered by the Qing Dynasty.

Ye Shaolong was suddenly slightly excited, maybe this was a breakthrough for him to defeat the Japanese Kou today.

The fleet of Japanese ships traveled at a high speed, and in a short time they reached three nautical miles above the sea of the port of Tianjin. The entire fleet stopped there quietly and orderly, putting a lot of pressure on the defending Yejiabao army.

On one of the largest warships in the fleet, a woman stood at the bow of the ship, wearing a kimono and a katana pinned to her waist, holding a telescope and watching the situation on the port of Tianjin.

Two steps behind her, it was Sakata Yitian who escaped last time, and at this moment, Sakata Yitian lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, standing quietly behind the woman and did not dare to make any sound.

"Bantian Jun, you said that the current Tianjin City is guarded by a person named Ye Shaolong, this person is really that powerful?" The woman suddenly put down her binoculars and turned to look at the respectful Sakata Ichichi.

"Princess, your subordinates don't dare to deceive you, and they are willing to use the head of the item to vouch for it, this Ye Shaolong is indeed powerful, especially his Yejiabao army is extremely brave. And according to the confession of the Seventh Prince we caught, this Tianjin City is indeed occupied by the Yejiabao army at present, and it is not known whether Ye Shaolong has been here in person. ”

Sakata swore that he had suffered a few losses in Ye Shaolong's hands, and now he had a deep shadow on Ye Shaolong and the Ye Jiabao army.

And the woman in front of her, whom she called the princess, was the sister of Emperor Wako, who had just arrived in Guangdong and had been staying in Guangdong.

Sakata fled to Guangdong one day after the defeat, and happened to meet the princess, and then the arrival of the army came this time. It just so happened that they met the Seventh Prince who fled in a hurry on the way here.

In the face of the powerful fleet of the Japanese Invaders, the poor nearly twenty ships of the Seventh Prince were quickly captured, and after interrogation and integration, the Japanese continued to come, and thus delayed for half a day to arrive at the port of Tianjin.

"Giggle......

The princess let out a crisp laugh, and then said coldly: "I heard that Ye Shaolong is still a beautiful man, this princess wants to see it." ”

"Pass the order! Send five vanguard ships to test the defense of the port of Tianjin. The princess suddenly snorted coldly.

Such a fickle woman is really incomprehensible, and in this short moment, she is laughing and cold as ice, like a schizophrenic.

Sakata's body trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to slack off at all, so he immediately took the order to carry it out. He didn't seem much surprised by the princess's moody behavior.

He knew very well that this princess was a murderous devil who did not blink an eye, with a beautiful face but at the same time the most vicious heart.

Serving under such a woman, there is a possibility of death at any time, so he has to be cautious at all times.

Ye Shaolong didn't know that he was facing a moody woman at the moment, and he saw in the telescope that the fleet of the Japanese invaders quickly made a move after a short stop.

Five of the original ships of the Qing Dynasty began to slowly break away from the Japanese fleet, and the sails were raised sharply before rushing towards the port of Tianjin.

Ye Shaolong frowned, it was obvious that this was the Japanese Kou who was testing the defense of Tianjin Port. After pondering for a while, Ye Shaolong immediately ordered that the whole army was not allowed to fire back with artillery, and directly let the ship dock and fight again.
