After the persuasion of the envoy of the "Dalai Lama", in mid-May of the 27th year of Kangxi, Galdan really led an army of 30,000 into the territory of Khalkha Mongolia. (The fastest update speed is in Aishang Novel Network biquge.info) Tushetu Khan Chahun Dorji received the battle report of the eastern invasion of Junggar in early June, and immediately informed the Erdeni called Jebtsundamba, Jebtsundamba transferred 5,000 people from the Selenga River, led by the son of Chahun Dorji, Gardan Dorji, and 5,000 reinforcements led by the grandson of the Sanyin Noyan minister, Tenzin Lama, to reinforce Tushetu Khan.

However, before the more than 10,000 reinforcements could join the Chahun Dorji division, they encountered the main forces of Temur and Jungar, and under the absolute disadvantage of one to three, the Tushetu army was defeated, and Galdan Dorji led more than 300 troops to flee to the area of the Weng Ji River to hide. After interrogating the prisoners, the victorious Galdan sent the master master Danzin Obumu to Erdeni to summon Nazhebzundamba, and he himself personally led a main force of more than 23,000 people to attack the headquarters of the Chechen Khan.

When the Living Buddha Jebtsundamba learned that the Dzungar army was coming, he fled to Chechen Khan overnight with his wife, children, lamas, and slaves of Shetu Khan. When Tenzin Obumu failed to find Jebtsundamba in Erdeni Zhao, he ordered the temple and the scriptures to be burned in retaliation. Since there has been no major war in the Khalkha Mongol headquarters for more than 200 years, the once brave Mongolian cavalry is now as cowardly as a hen, and after hearing that the Dzungar people attacked the Chechen Khan, the Khalkha troops were in an uproar, and all the troops abandoned felt tents, sheep, cattle, horses, and camels and fled to the south.

Jebtsundamba tried to stop the fleeing Mongols and reorganize them to reinforce Chahudorji, but to no avail, and had no choice but to follow the refugees through the Gobi Desert to southern Mongolia for refuge. The entire border of Inner and Outer Mongolia was full of panicked Khalkha refugees, and the Qing troops defending the Karen (note: outposts) everywhere on the border could not stop them at all, and the people of Outer Mongolia poured into the territory of the Sunite and Uzhumuqin banners of the Xilin Gol League.

On 3 August, the main force of the Dzungar army led by Galdan encountered the main force of the Tushetu army of Chahun Dorji in the vicinity of the Tula River (note: the Tule River on the edge of present-day Ulaanbaatar). The two sides fought fiercely for three days, and there was no winner or loser. On the night of the third day, the Dzungar army attacked the Khalkha barracks at night, and the whole Tushetu army was in an uproar, and the soldiers were scattered one after another, and it was not until after dawn that Chahun Dorji managed to gather some of his subordinates and force them into the territory of the Sunit Banner through the Gobi Desert.

After that, Galdan met the Suo'etu delegation who went to Sejinglesk to participate in the Sino-Russian border negotiations, so he ordered him to bring a letter to Kangxi, saying, "If Jebtsundamba defects to the emperor, he will either refuse to accept it, or arrest him and send him to me." ”

The Qing court sent people to bring the letter back to Beijing, and Kangxi was furious, believing that Galdan was arrogant. According to Kangxi's attitude, at the subsequent court meeting, the ministers proposed that if the Qing court refused to accept the Khalkha fugitives, Jebtsundamba would have no way to surrender and would inevitably surrender to Galdan, and then the vast area of Outer Mongolia would fall into the hands of Zungar, which would pose a great threat to the core ruling areas of the Qing court, Monan Mongolia and the Zhili region, and for this reason, Jebtsundamba must be preserved

On the surface of the ocean, which had already looked slightly dim, a group of bulletin boats under the banner of Zheng Jun were slowly approaching the shore, because the island that had been silent for a long time because the Qing court had closed the border and moved to the sea suddenly became lively, and at the same time the faint smoke of cooking rose on the shore, a large number of fish were also salvaged from the shallow sea.

Looking at the soldiers who were enjoying the last dinner before the war, Hou Jinguan, who commanded the raid as a commander, ordered with a somewhat heavy face: "Raise the flag to the two ships of Huayu and Maoyu, let them stay vigilant, this is not Dongning after all, and the Zhejiang Provincial Sailor who moved to Haitan may send a sentinel ship to patrol this place anytime and anywhere." ”

This is already the location of Nanri Island in Xinghua Bay, and it is not even half a day's water distance from the Zhejiang Provincial Naval Division Station in Haitan, so it can be said that it is already under the tip of the nose of the Qing army. But how much strength does Hou Jinguan have? It was only 1,000 to 1,500 news ships of 12, and the total number of broadside guns was no more than 44 three-inch guns. With such weak firepower to deal with the sailors of a province, Hou Jin officials really can't help but be careful.

"Lin Xian and Lin Shanchang of the Water Master Academy have already introduced the geography and water conditions around Haitan to the big guys before the war, so the official will not be redundant, and the official will say a word now." After dinner, Hou Jinguan summoned all the captains over. "All of you here are the captains of the notification ships, and you may not even be able to get soup in a war on weekdays, this time the battle is Gong Junmen in front of the Lord, this official asks you, is this battle a package?"

"Pack!" At first, the sound was a little sparse, but after a beating, and a second time, the voices of the dozen or so captains became very neat and sonorous. "Pack!"

"It's good to have this confidence, then let's finally deduce the course of the war"

The night gradually became rich and could not be dissolved, under the faint starlight, Zheng Jun and a group of reporting ships lowered the brightly colored white sails, with the help of the rising tide, slowly passed through the south east mouth of the Haitan Strait, and quietly broke into the hinterland of the Qing army and naval division of Zhejiang Province under the nose of the beacon tower of the islands.

Haitan is the fifth largest island in China, the largest island in Fujian, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty Fujian Command Division under the town of Dongwei, Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Jing two generations changed the name of the aid town, the governance has been in the east of Haikou Town, Fuqing (note: near Haikou Town). In the nineteenth year of Kangxi, after the Qing army occupied Haitan, it was renamed Haitan Town, Fujian Naval Division, and the Yamen of the General Army was on the island. In fact, not all of the Zhejiang Provincial Naval Division and the First Division of the Land Division were stationed on the island, and a considerable part of their troops and ships were distributed in the areas of Fuqing Bay and Sejiang Harbor, while the rest were in the area of Nanhouao and Suao on the side of Haitan Island near the Haitan Strait.

Because the Zheng army sent a small number of small ships and guns, it is impossible to expect one or two ships to complete the task of blockading the Qing army's water village, but once the number of ships concentrated is large, it is impossible to pose a threat to all the Qing army's water villages

The thin morning mist had begun to dissipate in the sunlight, but before the sleepy-eyed Qing army could wipe the droppings from the corners of his eyes, a group of strangely shaped gunboats jumped into his eyes. The Qing army's post, which had been stunned for a while, was busy warning it, but it was already too late, and the rumbling cannon was tantamount to announcing the beginning of war to the Qing army.

Zheng Jun reported that the three-inch cannon equipped with the ship was actually extremely limited, and the solid bullet of its equipment was difficult to penetrate the board made of inch thick wood at a slightly farther distance, but Zheng Jun had two magic weapons in his hands, chain bullets and blazing bullets, and the hit rate of static shooting was relatively high, so Zheng Jun quickly closed several entry and exit passes of the two Qing army water villages, so that some ships of the Zhejiang Provincial Water Division, which took the lead in the attack, burned and sank at the gate of the water village after being hit by the head and face, completely blocking the road for their own family to attack

Considering that the Qing army on the front line of Suzhou and Macao might have heard the news of the whole team attacking, after several rounds of volleys, the notification ship group at Sejiang Port was the first to withdraw. Hearing the cessation of the other side's shelling, the Zheng army of Nanhouao also sailed out of Hengyu, and the two groups of Zheng troops immediately reorganized into two columns on the ocean west of Yuyu Tsai.

The warships of the Qing army in Suao did attack -- not only did the Qing army in Suao attack, but also the warships of the Qing army's naval division in Fuqing Bay, which had been informed by the wolf smoke, but the latter was obviously unable to catch up -- when more than 50 warships of the Qing army in Suao had just sailed past Beixiangluyu and sailed into the Shipaiyang, they collided head-on with the Zheng army's fleet, which had just completed its formation.

Seeing that the Qing army had a large number of warships, Hou Jinguan did not want to fight with them, so he immediately ordered: "The whole team turns to the north mouth of the strait, first welcome the Qing captives with single-port artillery fire for a while, if they still don't know how to advance or retreat, and enter the southern ocean, let's do a good job with them again." ”

Seeing the Zheng army's sailors neatly sailing towards the north mouth of the strait due north and west, the Qing army's sailors chased like crazy, trying to use the speed of the ship to cut off the Zheng army's formation, which happened to form a T-shaped formation. Although the Qing army was able to use the bow guns it carried to open fire on the Zheng army, it was a drop in the bucket compared to the broadside fire that the Zheng army was able to use.

The artillery fire of both sides stirred up the situation and the sea agitated, but the actual hit rate was very low, and in the whole shelling process, only one Zheng army shell hit the Qing army's warship in front of the sudden attack, and the Qing army's artillery shells were all missed-this exposed the problem of the lack of range and power of the Zheng army's three-inch long guns, but part of the purpose of the Zheng army's attack was to show the enemy weakness, so this kind of Cheng dù exposure was just right.

After a period of pursuit, the Qing army's slow warships were really unable to catch up with Zheng Jun's fast boats, so they had to stop slowly, and Zheng Jun informed the ship that it was able to safely exit the north entrance, and then turn southeast through Liyu and sail straight towards Taiwan. When they returned to Dongning, the whole team reported that the ship did not eat a single shell, and no one was martyred, except for one injured person who was accidentally scalded while making a red-hot bomb. As soon as this news was disseminated, it immediately further boosted the morale of the Zheng army's naval divisions, and the Zheng army unanimously believed that although the Qing army's naval divisions were numerous, they were vulnerable.

However, the strange thing is that the morale of the Qing army, which was beaten by people blocking the door of their homes and losing seven or eight boats and hundreds of people, was also greatly boosted, and Liang Nai even wrote to the Qing court to claim that they had repelled the raid of the Zheng army's plywood boats with very small losses. For this reason, Kangxi personally ordered a commendation and chose October 17 as the day of the general attack of the three provincial naval divisions.

Since both sides are in high spirits, and since the time for the decisive battle has been chosen, a major battle is naturally impossible to avoid
