Chapter 686: Landing at Heliao Harbor
Taking advantage of Zheng Chenggong's familiarity with Chaoxun and Zhu Qing's flashing mind, Zheng Junshui finally overcame the harsh night environment and crossed Luermen.
In addition, the successful passage of the Zheng Junshui Division through Luermen also benefited from a feint on another route, that is, the South Passage. The South Passage and the North Passage, also known as the Luermen Road, are two routes that enter the Neijiang River from the open sea.
For the sake of safety, Zhu Qing ordered two rapid ships to make a detour to the South Channel for a feint attack before the Zheng Junshui Division was ready to force the Luermen.
On the stormy night, the Dutch army believed that Zheng's naval division entered Neijiang from the southern channel, and sure enough, the main forces were deployed in the southern channel to intercept it with artillery bombardment. Unexpectedly, they bombarded two nimble and light ships, and the Zheng army's naval division that crossed at Luermen was not within the range of the Dutch artillery.
In this way, when the Dutch army in the Northern Passage discovered the Zheng Army's naval division, it was too late, and even "shocked the arrival of the Zheng Army's naval division".
Taking advantage of the panic of the Dutch army, Zhu Qing personally led the water ghosts of the "Green Dragon" to attack with thunder, cutting off the north-south connection of the Dutch army with lightning speed, mainly the connection between Taiwan City and Chiji City.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was difficult for the Dutch army to come to the aid of the north and south, Zheng Chenggong led the Zheng army's naval division to advance according to the predetermined route and quickly landed at Heliao Port first.
At this moment, the Dutch stragglers stationed in Heliao Harbor suddenly detonated the port explosives. Zheng's naval division was negligent and lost two battleships, but fortunately there were no casualties, but it was difficult for the paralyzed battleships to participate in the battle, and the materials on the battleships were also in danger of being swallowed by the sea.
Annoyed and ashamed, the Jinyi Guard Water Ghost abandoned the ship and chased down the Dutch skirmishers who had detonated the Zheng army's battleship. Within ten miles, the Jinyi Wei Water Ghost completely swept away the hidden dangers of the enemy in Heliao Port.
But when they returned to salvage the material, they saw that the battleship was sinking. Seeing that the materials on these two warships were about to sink into the sea, a large number of men and horses suddenly rushed out of the beach and ran towards the sea with torches.
The Jinyi Wei Water Ghost thought that the Dutch army was coming back, and was about to swing his sword to face the battle, but was urgently stopped by Zheng Chenggong, "Wait!" They're not hairy! ”
When the group got closer, they realized that it was really not a foreigner, but a local! There are both Han Chinese and mountain people.
"General! You're finally here! A patriarch-like man excitedly shook Zheng Chenggong's hand.
"You are ......" Although Zheng Chenggong knew that they were local residents, he was still a little puzzled when such a group of both Han and indigenous people suddenly ran out. How did these people end up here?
"It's him, it's this general who told us that the Zheng family army is here! We've just come to meet the general! The patriarch said, pulling out a person from behind him, it was Zhu Qing!
"Brother Zhu, you?!" Zheng Chenggong exclaimed.
Zhu Qing smiled slightly, "Don't forget, the people are our strong backing, they are all ordinary people who have been oppressed by foreign hairs, and they are always looking forward to your Zheng family army coming back to save them from fire and water!" ”
"Yes, General, I've finally got you here! We have always wanted to resist the governance of Yang Maozi, but there is no way, they are too rampant, now that the Zheng family army is here, Yang Maozi can only be frightened and flee. Those of us who are willing to follow the general, drive out the foreign hair, and rebuild our homeland! ”
"I am willing to follow the general, just leave the foreign hair, and rebuild my homeland!" The people behind the patriarch immediately echoed in unison.
Zheng Chenggong almost burst into tears when he saw this group of villagers who never gave up, he held back his emotions and nodded, "Folks, Taiwan is the Taiwan of the Ming Dynasty, it is our Taiwan, and no invader wants to occupy a single cent!" Zheng Chenggong is willing to work with you to drive away foreign thieves and recover Taiwan! ”
"Drive out the foreign thieves and recover Taiwan!" The soldiers and civilians suddenly rose to high spirits and echoed in unison.
Chen Yuanyuan watched from the side and gently pushed Zhu Qing, "Hey? Zheng Gongzi's tone of voice is becoming more and more like you. ”
Zhu Qing smiled, "Heroes see the same thing!" ”
Chen Yuanyuan suddenly glared at Zhu Qing, and said in disgust, "Hmph, I think it smells the same, your mouth is so sweet, you are the best at seducing others!" ”
"Do I have a sweet mouth? How do you know? Zhu Qing smiled ruffian and quipped. According to his words, being able to make jokes in such a difficult and tense combat environment is also a spirit of optimism.
But obviously, Chen Yuanyuan understood something else, and suddenly her smile flushed, she lowered her head slightly, and glared at Zhu Qing again, "Hmph, you bully others and ignore you!" Chen Yuanyuan was willful, so he ran back to the boat alone.
Zhu Qing was not at ease, and was about to follow, but saw that the two battleships were stationary!
Zhu Qing stopped and asked, "You guys go and see what's going on?" ”
After hearing this, several water ghosts were about to turn around and jump into the sea to check the reason, but they were suddenly stopped by the patriarch, "Wait! ”
"Brother Patriarch, why are you stopping them?" Zheng Chenggong wondered.
"Don't hide it, General, we have lived here for generations, and we are already very familiar with this area, there is a reef in that place, I think those two ships ran aground on the reef. Won't sink anymore! The patriarch replied.
Zheng Chenggong was suddenly pleasantly surprised when he heard this, "You mean, I can keep these two ships of supplies?" ”
The patriarch nodded repeatedly, "Not bad." You see, General, we didn't come bare-handed, we took ropes and slings to help the General carry the things in the team to the shore! As the patriarch spoke, he turned around and shouted, "Folks, go to sea to help the general move things to the shore!" ”
The patriarch gave an order, and the villagers went out one after another to help Zheng Jiajun carry the grain and grass.
Seeing this, Zheng Chenggong's face was full of surprise.
With the help of the villagers and the cooperation of the military and the people, the Zheng Junshui Division quickly completed the landing and successfully set up camp on the Bund.
"Look, this is the power of the people!" Zhu Qing patted Zheng Chenggong's shoulder and smiled.
Taking advantage of Zheng Chenggong's familiarity with Chaoxun and Zhu Qing's flashing mind, Zheng Junshui finally overcame the harsh night environment and crossed Luermen.
In addition, the successful passage of the Zheng Junshui Division through Luermen also benefited from a feint on another route, that is, the South Passage. The South Passage and the North Passage, also known as the Luermen Road, are two routes that enter the Neijiang River from the open sea.
