The first battle of the Qingzhou Naval Division finally came to an end, although in this battle the Qingzhou Naval Division gave the Zheng Jiashui Division a heavy blow, but did not let it lose its combat effectiveness, the Zheng Naval Division retreated while fighting under the command of Zheng Sen and Zheng Zhibao, and finally retreated from the battlefield to the south.

The Qingzhou Naval Division, which had fought fiercely for half a day, had to stop the pursuit due to excessive ammunition loss, and retreated to the port after cleaning up the battlefield, and the Qingzhou Naval Division destroyed 43 enemy ships, including 36 Cangshan ships, and seven No. 2 Fu ships were sunk, killing more than 1,200 enemies (including the army soldiers carried on the Fu boats). The other side also suffered more than 300 casualties, and the seven fast cruisers lost their combat effectiveness and had to reluctantly pull out of the battlefield and sail towards the port.

When Tu Hai sailed back to the port with the fleet, he was warmly welcomed by Pang Gang and the army generals, although Pang Gang could not see the whole process of the naval battle just now, but he only saw a corner of the battlefield and the spies who kept shuttling back and forth had reported the situation to him, so as the supreme commander, he also knew a lot about the battle just now.

"Well played! Didn't disgrace our Qingzhou sailors! Pang Gang looked at Pang Hai who was standing straight in front of him and nodded with satisfaction, although Pang Gang didn't know how to command naval battles, he also knew how great it was to be able to lead a group of rookie sailors who had been trained for less than half a year to fight against a group of experienced and numerous professional pirates and win.

"Master Xie praises, this is an adult's leadership, and the last general will not dare to take credit!" Tu Hai, who was praised, was not proud of his credit, but humbly gave the credit to his boss and boss.

"Nonsense, this official has been on land, leading a fart." Pang Gang kicked the sycophant back unceremoniously, "You have to remember that your credit is your credit, and no one can take it away." ”

"Yes!" Tu Hai replied with a little embarrassment.

"Hehe, okay, you are all great heroes today, without you our port would not know what to be destroyed." Pang Gang praised with a smile, from Tu Hai, Mo Hui and even Li Xiaojun, the commander of the sailors from North Korea.

To tell the truth, although Pang Gang planned to put the enemy on the shore to fight today, he also knew that this could only be a helpless strategy, although Pang Gang could guarantee that the enemy would not capture the port, but even if he could destroy the enemy's landing troops, some of the facilities in the port that had been built hard would definitely be destroyed. It is still their own belongings that are injured when they fight around, so it can be seen that the sentence that the enemy is outside the country is not unreasonable.

And what worries Pang Gang even more is that even if the Zheng family's ashore troops are not defeated, if they are allowed to wander around in the coastal areas and cause destruction, they will inevitably be exhausted, especially some of the achievements that have been built with great difficulty will also be affected, which is what Pang Gang is most worried about.

Well, now that this guy Tu Hai led the sailor not only did not avoid the battle, but also won a big victory, and now Pang just put down his hanging heart.

Pang Gang, who was in a good mood, looked back at the army generals behind him with a somewhat blank expression and asked with a smile: "Now who of you still says that our sailor in Qingzhou is a bottomless pit, and can only swallow gold words and can't do things, I see that you are elm lumps one by one, and you have to beat hard to open your mind, I ask you, if there is no sailor, can we drive those rabbit cubs away so smoothly today." ”

Li Yuan, Da Zhuang and others lowered their heads embarrassedly, thinking that when Pang Gang was going to spend a lot of money to build a wharf and a water division, the two of them shouted the most fiercely, and Li Yuan even shouted the slogan that the army should not have a water division, and then Pang Gang was severely reprimanded before he stopped.

But even if they don't say it, they are old men in the Qingzhou army system, and they are also quite influential, and under their intentional or unintentional drive, the army and the navy division still don't get along, so today Pang Gang will take this opportunity to knock and knock them.

"Uh, my lord, I was wrong, I will never look down on the sailor again." Li Yuan lowered his head and said non-nuo.

Although Li Yuan's surname is a little impatient, he is not a person who does not know what to do, and today's battle of the sailor division also gave them a vivid moment, it turns out that the sailor can also be so fierce, especially when the two fleets are in a duel, and dozens or even hundreds of guns are firing together, the scene is still quite spectacular, so he is very happy to admit his mistake at the first time.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, today this official wants to celebrate the achievements of our sailors and soldiers!" Pang just waved his hand and shouted loudly, and then his voice was drowned out by the sound of cheers......

Although the naval battle of Qingzhou was over, the shock caused by it did not disappear with this battle, and its impact far exceeded the expectations of both sides.

When Pang Gang counted the casualties and losses after the war, even Pang Gang, a wealthy landowner, couldn't help but crack his mouth.

According to statistics, a total of 167 sailors were killed and 223 wounded, and 50,000 taels of silver and Pang Gang were spent on compensation alone, plus the commendations for the sailors, nearly 200,000 taels of silver were spent on this alone. The loss of ammunition made Pang Gang grin, including more than 2,000 solid bullets, 110,000 small bullets used in grape bombs, and more than 8,000 catties of gunpowder.

After seeing these data, Pang Gang only had one feeling, what kind of war is this, this is simply throwing silver in the game. Now it is only more than 40 ships, what if the Qingzhou Naval Division expands in the future, and there are 1200 or even 5 or 600 ships? That's okay, I'm afraid that no matter how big my belongings are, I will have to be poor, right? No wonder Zheng Zhilong, a broad guy who collects protection money and receives a soft hand, even wants to rob Qingzhou, it is estimated that his money bag is not very rich, right? No, it seems that my business still has to continue, not only to do it, but also to do it bigger.

However, before that, the pace of recruiting sailors must not stop, otherwise how can we expand our own sailor team.

Just as Pang Gang was sitting in the study and drafting the army expansion plan, a delicate figure walked in, this person was Chen Yuanyuan, who had just married Pang Gang.

"Xianggong!"

"Well, Yuanyuan, what's the matter?" Pang Gang put down the pen and pulled Chen Yuanyuan with a smile, let her sit on his lap, and hugged her dotingly.

"Xianggong, that's right." Although he and Pang Gang became close, Chen Yuanyuan was still a little unaccustomed to sitting on her husband's lap, and said with a slightly red face: "Xianggong, Sister Liu is going back, can you help me persuade her." ”

"Well, your sister Liu is going back?" Pang Gang asked in surprise.
