The sand boat knew how powerful the Daming Coast Guard ship was, so it stopped early.

"Ignore them and move on!" The captain of the Inglewood had long heard of the power of the Ming Coast Guard ship, but he was very proud, "We are a merchant ship of the British Empire, and this Ming coast guard ship does not dare to do it." ”

"Boom!" "Boom! "Two shells landed in front of the ship Inglewood.

"This is the last warning! You must stop the boat for inspection. If you disobey, you will be dead! ”

Under the threat of strong force, the captain had to obediently lower the sails.

Wang Wenli commanded the 0 coast guard ship to approach, and after fully controlling the merchant ship, 0 took the Inglewood and sailed to the shrimp gate one after the other.

Li Zhiying, who was on the sand boat, tried her best to tell her daughter's misfortune and asked Wang Xinglei to help rescue her.

"The British merchant ship is gone!" There were sailors on deck who shouted.

As soon as Li Zhiying turned around, he was about to leave when he arrived at the Ingelwood, and he knelt down all of a sudden, "Save your life, my daughter was really abducted by the British ship, please, help!" ”

Li Zhiying, who looked like a literati, knelt in front of her, with a handful of snot and tears, and Wang Xinglei was also a little sour.

After listening to Wang Xinglei's report, Bai Baoxiang gently scratched his scalp with his index finger, "Li Yeting? Li Zhiying? ”

Bai Baoxiang also knew a little about the situation of these two people, "Forget it, let Wang Wenli return Li Zhiying's daughter to him, and you quickly bring the sand boat back!" ”

Putting down the intercom, Bai Baoxiang lightly tapped his fingers on the table and stared out the window.

The early hijacking of the Inglewood is a good thing or a bad thing? Ningbo Zhoushan ships have been robbed too much, what measures will European and American ghost animals take?

Hearing the words in Bai Baoxiang's mouth, Lin Youde patted him on the shoulder, "Chairman Bai, the force of the ghost animal is just like that, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to deal with it when the time comes." Eastern Zhejiang is now just a corner, and as long as we succeed in Taiwan, the situation will be very good. ”

"That's right!" Bai Baoxiang laughed, "Mr. Lin, you're still there!" I'm going to Dunan tomorrow and I'm still going to rest early. ”

"You're going to go to war in eastern Zhejiang, where can I sleep now! Besides, the personnel and equipment of the ship, they are all doing it, I am just coordinating in the middle, and there is nothing else to do after getting on the ship, just sleeping. ”

Bai Baoxiang nodded, he thought for a while, "Zhedong here~~~, since Li Yeting has arrived in Dinghai, our actions must also be fine-tuned." The duty officer, the notice went down, and Zhenhae's operation was postponed by a day. ”

In the early morning of November 4, a mist shrouded the sea of gray turtles.

Through the faint white veil on the sea, four coast guard ships and three three-masted galleons quietly approached the mouth of the Dahun River.

The Coast Guard ship was equipped with a cannon company of the 1st Regiment, and three galleons were loaded with three infantry companies of the 1st Regiment. This time, the Executive Committee left only one infantry company to guard Dinghai, and the rest of the 1st Regiment was dispatched.

Yongjiang River used to be called Dahun River, Zhenhai is located at the mouth of Dahun River, the north of Zhenhai is the sea, the east and south are surrounded by Dahun River, the east bank is Jinji Mountain, and the west bank is Zhaobao Mountain.

The coastline to the north of Zhenhai stretches to the northwest, and about five kilometers from Zhenhai is a small village called Wantang.

Two coast guard ships were moored far away from the mouth of the river, carefully alerting the movement in the direction of Zhenhai.

Two other coast guard vessels and transport flotilla continued northward, with the flotilla anchoring in the sea east of Wantang.

The coast guard ship was on guard, and after the three galleons dropped anchor, they quickly lowered the dinghy.

Each sailboat had a dinghy on the port side, and each dinghy could fully carry two squads of soldiers.

As soon as the dinghy is put on the sea, it sways up and down with the waves.

Dressed in camouflage from head to toe, with a 40-pound camouflage bag on their backs, and heavily armed army soldiers gathered on the side of the ship.

This is at sea, from a big ship to a small boat, no one has ever tried it before, and the soldiers are a little nervous.

"Everybody come with me!"

The company commander Ban Xue took the lead first, and the first to climb the grid on the side of the boat and descend to the dinghy, followed by the platoon commander Zha Yudang. Under the leadership of the company platoon commander, the heavily armed infantry climbed the grid one after another and slowly jumped onto the boat. A few minutes later, the first dinghy, rowed by a group of soldiers, quickly approached the tidal flats of the Wantang waterfront.

Then the second, the third, and the dinghy rowed towards the shore in unison.

About 20 meters away from the tidal flat, the first dinghy ran aground.

Zha Yu secretly scolded: "Grass and mud horses, you have to step on the sea water to go ashore, and all the drips under your knees will be wet!" ”

At this moment, Ban Xue stood up, and he turned to everyone and said, "Brothers, be careful not to wet your guns and ammunition, and go forward with me. ”

As he spoke, he raised his Mosin-Nagant rifle, "plopped" and jumped into the water, which reached his calf.

"Grass, no one can be a company commander, I can only be a small platoon commander!" Zha Yudang shook his head slightly, and also jumped down.

The soldiers of the two squads jumped into the water "plopped", held their M7 rifles in front of their chests, and slowly moved towards the shore with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

At this time, the white fog on the sea has slowly dissipated, and all this can be clearly seen from the shore to the seaside.

There were some ordinary people working by the sea pond, and when they came to the sea, a group of colorful clothes came, and they immediately panicked, and the pirates came! And they ran into the village.

Zha Yu is a native of Haining and understands the dialect of Zhenhai. Hearing the chirping and shouting on the shore, saying that the pirates were coming, the pirates were coming, he was very unhappy.

"Listen up!" Zha Yudang roared, "The people of Ningbo say that we are pirates, and after we go up, we must show the quality of the Ming King." ”

After going ashore, Ban Xue immediately organized a team to guard the sea pond on the shore. Soon, Shui Wuxian followed the team behind him to the shore.

Bai Baoxiang was on the galleon, and from the telescope, several small boats kept shuttling back and forth. At this time, the white fog was about to dissipate, and Bai Baoxiang's three infantry companies from the water without a trace all arrived safely on the sea pond, and he immediately ordered the two vigilant coast guard ships to return to the sea, rendezvous with the coast guard ships outside the river mouth, and prepare to enter the Dahun River together.

On November 4, Dingchanggu in Zhenhai Zhixian County had just gotten up in the morning, and Bu Xingyou, the garrison of the Navy Division, sent people to invite him to inspect the Weiyuan Fort on the spot in the morning.

Since Dinghai was occupied by the Ming army, Ningbo Daoduan Guangqing appointed Bu Xingyou as the capital division, promoted him to be the garrison of the sailor battalion, and trained the sailor battalion in Zhenhai; At the same time, Ding Changgu was also ordered to repair the forts on both sides of the strait as soon as possible to protect the safety of the Dahun River.

Bu Xingyou was promoted to the garrison of the sailor battalion, although he also practiced every day, but his heart was always unsteady, he thought that the water war was not as good as the Ming on the other side, and he didn't want to fight with it, and the batteries on both sides of the Dahun River estuary were the only ones he could resist.

The Weiyuan Artillery City on Zhaobao Mountain and the forts on Jinji Mountain on both sides of the Dahun River were destroyed by the British in the Opium War and have not been repaired since.

Ding Changgu is a native of Jinshan and was born as a prisoner. He was directly promoted from Zhenhai County to Zhixian County.

In a hurry, Ding Changgu had to forcibly requisition manpower and material resources to organize emergency repairs day and night.

After about ten busy days, I finally built several small artillery positions on the ruins of Weiyuan Artillery City and Jinji Mountain on the opposite bank.

The anti-thieves in Dinghai on the other side are too powerful, Lord Shao's 7,000 strong soldiers and Fujian's elite sailors have all been wiped out, Ding Changgu is very bottomless in his heart, can his hastily built fort be used? !

After breakfast, Ding Changgu took care of some urgent business a little, and then took his entourage to the garrison office to meet Buxingyou.

After Bu Xingyou had joined Ding Changgu, he was about to go to the fort when a group of pirates came to report that a group of pirates had come up in the vicinity of Wantang, dressed in colorful clothes, and all of them were holding long stick-like things in their hands, which looked like muskets.

"What a pirate, that's a thief!" Bu Xingyou scolded angrily.

The thieves from Wantang want to block the west gate of Zhenhai and seal the connection between Zhenhai and Ningbo! Bu Xingyou couldn't help but snort, and the interest in checking the fort immediately disappeared, and the mind of the thirty-six plans for the upper plan kept flipping in Bu Xingyou's chest.

"Go and close the gates of the city and organize the defense of the city; I first went to the riverside to gather the sailors and check the situation at the mouth of the Yongjiang River. With that, Bu Xingyou ran away with his men.

With Bu Xingyou leaving, Ding Changgu had to order a few people around him to hurry up and close the city gate, and he also took someone to the west gate to check in person.

Before Ding Changgu arrived at the West Gate, gunshots rang out in the direction of the West Gate, and then people poured into the city.

It turned out that Shui Wuxian had rushed to the area around the West Gate, and they fired warning shots outside the city, blocking the entrance and exit of the West Gate.

When the water was blocking the west gate without a trace, Bu Xingyou had already rushed to the sailor dock outside the south. He was about to assemble the sailors when the sound of cannons rang out at the mouth of the Dahun River.

At this time, the fog on the river had dissipated, and the four Ming warships approached the mouth of the river together, which was immediately discovered by the batteries on both sides of the mouth of the Dahun River.

When the Ming warship approached, the green battalion soldiers guarding the fort were suddenly very panicked, these green battalion soldiers had no war, they hurriedly opened artillery to intercept, and the shells fell far into the river.

The coast guard ship immediately returned fire, and several incendiary bombs were fired, and a raging fire immediately broke out on Zhaobao Mountain and Jinji Mountain. In autumn, the mountain was full of dead branches and dry grass, and the fire soon spread, and the gunpowder magazine of the fort was also ignited, and Zhaobao Mountain and Jinji Mountain became a sea of fire.

To the mountains on both sides of the estuary, thick smoke billowed and the flames soared into the sky, and the sailor battalion exploded. These anti-thieves are Kong Ming alive, and they specialize in fire attack. ”

"Grab him, run! If you don't run, it will become barbecue. ”

The sailors on the sailor boat scrambled to untie the cable and raise the sails, wanting to leave the dock as soon as possible and escape in the direction of Ningbo upstream. In the midst of the scramble, several ships rushed forward, colliding with each other and huddled together.

As soon as the cannon of the Ming army sounded, Bu Xingyou knew that it was going to be bad, and this Ming pirate was a two-way attack, and it was menacing. This group of soldiers hurriedly grabbed the way, blocking the route of the Jinbaochang, Bu Xingyou was a little anxious, he had to run quickly, and it would be too late if he didn't run.

He jumped onto the slipway of the Jin Baochang at once, raised a flintlock pistol, and pointed it at the sky with "Bang!" One shot.

"Hold your old man, what a panic! The gang of thieves is still at the foot of Zhaobao Mountain, more than 4 miles away from here. ”

The Buxing Jinbaochang is an enlarged version of the large red single boat. The average large red single ship is no more than five or six hundred tons, and it is armed with twenty or thirty guns. However, the Jinbaochang can carry **100 tons and is equipped with more than 40 foreign guns.

Standing tall on the slipway of the Jin Baochang, he held a flintlock pistol in his hand and scolded angrily. A group of green battalion soldiers immediately became much more honest, gentle and frugal. The route was slightly cleared, and the Kampho Cheong rushed out first, speeding past the other ships and heading straight upstream.

"Bu Xingyou ran away first, take your old man." The sailors hurriedly operated the boat to dodge, and a ship as big as the Jin Baochang would be unlucky if it collided.

The Jinbaochang rushed to the Sailor Wharf and was about to flee in the direction of Ningbo, when three Kasang rockets flew from the direction of the Ximen River.

Shui Wuxian and the infantry company had already rushed to the riverside outside the West Gate to set up an artillery position, and when the Qing army's naval division wanted to escape, he immediately ordered the accompanying artillery to fire Kasan rockets to intercept it.

An incendiary shell missed and landed in the middle of the river, and a thick black smoke rose into the air, and a raging flame immediately burned on the surface of the river.

Two shells landed right on the ship Jinbaochang, and there were two loud "booms, booms". The fire was blazing, and as soon as the river wind blew, the fire spread the whole boat at once, and bursts of heart-rending screams suddenly sounded on the boat, and one by one the burning people jumped into the river.

At this tragedy, smelling this scorching smell, the sailors and boats behind were all frightened, "White flag, quickly tree white flag!" ”

There were shells in the east, interceptions in the west, and the southern gate was closed, so that even the river could burn. The soldiers on the boat and on the shore all raised their hands high, and no one dared to move, let alone jump into the river.

The guards on several towers were also frightened, and they raised white flags and opened the city gates.

Zhenhai City surrendered without a fight.
