Chapter 683: Safe Haven

"Hector" is a large warship, although it withdrew from Penghu Island, but it is also retreating and wait-and-see, at any time there is an opportunity to act, the possibility of killing back the carbine, so until the Dutch army on Penghu Island is completely annihilated, the shadow of "Hector" can still be seen in the distance from Penghu Island.

decided to avenge the revenge of Penghu for the destruction of the island, or the self-confidence of Zheng Junshui, Zheng Chenggong led Zheng Junshui to chase after him!

The Zheng Army's naval division used a small warship, which was not weak in power and combat effectiveness, and was originally taken from the hands of the Japanese Emperor, including a part of the Jinyiwei, which was later upgraded by skilled craftsmen to become a faster, more accurate and stronger Zheng family warship. The maneuverability of such a battleship is naturally better than that of the Dutch giant "Hector".

Zheng Jun's sailors chased after him for most of the day, and finally caught up before the "Hector" arrived at Taiwan's seaport. When they got closer to the "Hector", they realized that the eyes can deceive! "Hector" is much bigger than they imagined and saw when they looked at it from afar!

"General! Such a big guy, we can't be careless! Adjutant General Zheng Xuan said to Zheng Chenggong.

Zheng Chenggong nodded, picked up the clairvoyance and observed it for a while, suddenly, his face changed, he took off the clairvoyance, pointed to it and exclaimed, "Not good!" ”

"General, what's wrong?" Zheng Xuan asked.

"Bigger trouble is coming, you see, the sky has changed ahead, it seems that the demon wind is coming!" Zheng Chenggong's brows furrowed, he seemed to have a premonition of what this meant.

When Zheng Xuan and the others heard this, they also paid attention to the observation, and they all looked worried.

"General, what should I do? Are we still chasing after it? Zheng Xuan asked.

Zheng Chenggong hesitated, the enemy's main ship is in front of him, if he can intercept it while it has not yet entered the island of Taiwan, it will inevitably be able to form an encirclement of the enemy ship, making it isolated, and then it is not impossible to find a way to eat it up, after all, the support of the Dutch army here is not easy, and it is likely to be the key point to turn the tide of the war.

However, if the heavens are not beautiful, if the enemy ships are rashly pursued at this time, I am afraid that the entire Zheng army and naval division will be involved in the storm, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

"It's past the Mid-Autumn Festival, why is there such a big demonic wind?" Zheng Xuan muttered, in fact, everyone here, I'm afraid that even if he Zheng Xuan has the deepest feelings for Penghu Island, especially the ghost village, it is Zheng Xuan who wants to avenge them the most. Seeing that the weather was unfavorable, Zheng Xuan was quite angry and smashed the guardrail a few times.

"How else can it be said to be a demon wind?" Although Zheng Chenggong was also quite helpless, he seemed calmer.

Zheng Jun's sailors fight or avoid, and now wait for him to decide and speak alone.

"General, look, the enemy ship doesn't seem to be moving...... It seems to be starting to break down! One person exclaimed, Zheng Chenggong and the others looked again, and sure enough, the "Hector" had stopped.

Zheng Xuan was immediately overjoyed, pointed to the enemy ship and said with a smile, "The sky finally has eyes, and the demon wind has suppressed the enemy ship, why don't we take the opportunity to rush up and sink the enemy ship in one fell swoop?" Even if the demon wind comes, with our speed, it should be too late to evacuate quickly......"

However, Zheng Xuan's proposal was soon opposed by Zheng Chenggong. Zheng Chenggong continued to observe the enemy situation and weather conditions in front of him, and he couldn't help but shake his head, "Don't rush in!" ”

"General, why is that? What a godsend! Zheng Xuan was puzzled, and the generals also wanted to go into battle as soon as possible to kill the enemy and return to Taiwan, so they echoed one after another.

Zheng Chenggong did not waver in the idea of withdrawing troops because of everyone's opposition, he still explained patiently, "How is the size of my battleship compared to the enemy ship?" ”

"The enemy ships are three times as large as mine!" Zheng Xuan responded.

Zheng Chenggong nodded, "This is the enemy's advantage, even in the face of the approaching demon wind, they can still be so calm, and even dare to stop the ship and anchor, it can be seen that the enemy is very confident in his warship, and we can't afford to bet on this demon wind!" ”

After hearing this, the soldiers couldn't help but calm down and carefully savor Zhu Qing's reason.

The most impulsive is Zheng Xuan, and it is Zheng Xuan who makes the most sense at this time. He slammed the guardrail again, and asked Zheng Chenggong unwillingly, "What should I do?" ”

Zheng Chenggong still thought about it again and again, patted the guardrail and responded, "Withdraw to Penghu first, just in case!" ”

Although Zheng Xuan and the others were unwilling, they also reluctantly shouted the order, "Mingjin withdraw the troops and withdraw to Penghu!" ”

Under the pressure of the typhoon, the morale of the Zheng Army, which was on the way to pursue the enemy, was forced to return to Penghu.

However, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, Zheng Jun's sailors have just returned, and suddenly thunder rolls at the junction of the sea and the sky, and lightning falls, black clouds overwhelm the city, the sea is calm, and the sea water is black. Just when the storm was about to fall, Zheng's naval division left the Dutch "Hector" far behind.

Before the Zheng Junshui division fully arrived in Penghu, suddenly there was a loud noise, and a huge thunderbolt exploded in the sky, as if the sky had exploded into an outlet, and the demonic wind continued to pour in from the outlet, intensifying and intensifying, and finally formed a sweeping trend, making waves, turning over the river and the sea, and quickly spreading around. Hulala's gale broke the rare moment of tranquility in the Taiwan Strait.

Zheng Chenggong, who had already returned to Penghu Bay, did not rush to hide from the rain, and after ordering his subordinates to do the specific work of typhoon prevention, he walked up to the high platform of the port and raised his clairvoyance to look at the sea.

At this time, the sea was already windy, and the rain was pouring down, and the dark sky poured white rain, stirring the sea to a gray color.

But on this gray sea, Zheng Chenggong saw that the Dutch army's "Hector" was unharmed, except for the undulating shaking of the sea waves, the storm did not cause much damage to this giant, on the other hand, two of the Zheng army's naval division warships that had not yet docked had been flooded by the sea and were on the verge of toppling.

In desperation, Zheng Chenggong had to order the soldiers on the battleships to abandon the ship and flee.

When the soldiers who abandoned the ship and fled swam ashore and looked back, several warships had been swept over by the strong wind, and in a few moments, they were swallowed up by the rough sea.

"It's good that the withdrawal was made in time!" Zheng Chenggong put away his clairvoyance and couldn't help but gasp, this time it was really dangerous.

Fortunately, Jinyiwei paid a heavy price and finally recaptured Penghu Island from the Dutch army, and at this time, it became a safe haven for Zheng Jun's sailors.

"General, General Qinglong is awake!" Suddenly, a Zheng soldier came to report, Zheng Chenggong did not dare to hesitate, he didn't bother to change his rain-soaked clothes and turned around and hurried towards the wounded barracks.

When he appeared in front of Zhu Qing like a chicken in soup, Chen Yuanyuan was feeding Zhu Qing to drink the decoction. Seeing Zheng Chenggong's impressed appearance, Zhu Qing suddenly squirted out the decoction that had just been sent to his mouth with a "poof". Even Chen Yuanyuan didn't care about talking about Zhu Qing, but stared at Zheng Chenggong like a monster.

"What are you?" Zhu Qing smiled weakly and asked with a grin.

Zheng Chenggong noticed that he came to meet him with a wet voice, his face was stunned, and he smiled embarrassedly, "Oh, I was drenched when I was just commanding the fleet to return to the port at the ferry, and the guards told me that you woke up, and you came here in a hurry, and you didn't change your clothes." Don't blame you! Zheng Chenggong said at the end, hugged his fists and saluted the people present.

However, Zhu Qing didn't care what clothes he was wearing at the moment, he just wanted to know what Zheng Junshui was doing during the time he was in a coma.

"You're chasing the enemy?" Zhu Qing struggled, sat up with the help of Chen Yuanyuan, stared at Zheng Chenggong tightly, and asked seriously.

Zheng Chenggong knew that not only did he return in vain this time, but he also lost a few warships, so he naturally felt a little embarrassed in front of Zhu Qing, so he just nodded silently, not daring to look directly into Zhu Qing's eyes.

Zheng Chenggong nodded, "This is the enemy's advantage, even in the face of the approaching demon wind, they can still be so calm, and even dare to stop the ship and anchor, it can be seen that the enemy is very confident in his warship, and we can't afford to bet on this demon wind!" ”
