On September 20 of the first year of Taishun, shortly after the sun in the east jumped above the sea level, a group of murderous warships lined up in two formations and broke into the horseshoe-shaped entrance of Tuoyang Port. Due to the ongoing war, the usually lazy Quang Nam people were unusually vigilant at this time, and as soon as the unknown warship broke in, the observation posts of Han Island and Son Tra Peninsula rose almost simultaneously.

As the ships continued to approach, the blue, red and blue flags hanging on the top of their sails were clearly visible under the reflection of the rising sun in the east, but the red color during the period looked so hideous and bloody in the glow that after approaching the coastal waters of Han Island, the panicked defenders of Quang Nam preemptively fired a warning shot, in an attempt to order the other side not to approach again.

The rumbling cannon sound and the soaring water column seemed to frighten the approaching Ming Zheng sailors, only to see the flagship [Minjiang] raise a string of flags, and then a group of gunboats opened the gun window on the starboard side one after another, pushing out the black gun muzzles.

It seemed to sense that the Ming Zheng Naval Division was showing signs of firing, and the shells from the Handao Fort quickly became dense, but the position of the Handao Fort was facing due east, and the dazzling eyes made the already hand-wrenched gunners even more abnormal.

At three o'clock, the Ming and Zheng sailors approaching the Handao Fort began to change their formation, and the original two columns of marching troops formed a long line. After another quarter of an hour, the first [Minjiang] approached the fort, and the projectile fired by the fort was already close at hand, at this time, I saw a cross-cut of the [Minjiang], and the seven three-inch guns on the right side of the ship fired in turn, instantly hitting the rocks on the shore cracking, mud and sand splashing, and the smoke column soaring into the sky****??

After the shooting, the [Minjiang] immediately set sail, and a moment later, the second gunboat, the Cao'ejiang, fired seven more shells at the shore from the same position of the [Minjiang]. Next, [Qingyijiang], [Dazhangxi], [Oujiang], [Jinjiang], [Turbidity River], and [Songxi] stepped forward in turn, like a volcano that continued to erupt, imposing the horror of the last days on the heads of the people of Guangnan.

In the continuous artillery bombardment of the opponent, the Handao Fort also tried its best to resist, but because most of the cannons it had were 3-pound and 6-pound light Hongyi guns, they could not reach the Ming and Zheng ships on the sea, and the small number of 9-pounder guns was far inferior to the three-inch long guns uniformly equipped with the Ming and Zheng gunboats.

Therefore, after fighting for a while, the sound of the Handao Fort began to be intermittent, but the Ming Zheng Naval Division still refused to give up, and the comeback [Minjiang] even rushed closer to the coast under the guidance of Wu Shiming, and then the long cannon and short cannon were fired together, setting off a bloody storm on the Handao Fort again.

Speaking of which, the firing range of a four-inch short cannon can barely reach 60 or 70 zhang, which is far inferior to a three-inch long cannon that can shoot two or three miles, but a 44-kilogram shell is not comparable to a 20-kilogram shell.

After another round, the Handao Fort was completely dumb. Chang Tianyuan and Du Hu were still preparing to abuse each other, but at this time, the shadow of the sails had already risen in the eastern part of the bay, and nearly 100 Guangnan ships, whether they were willing or not, had already assembled and were ready to use the ship-sea tactics to drown the eight invading enemies.

Now that the warships in the harbor had been lured out, the Ming Zheng sailors sailed out of the harbor. Naturally, the Quang Nam people also noticed the opponent's movements, and the commander of the naval army naturally ordered his subordinates to go north first to cut off the enemy's escape. However, Tuopian Bay is too spacious, not to mention a mere 100 ships, even if the number is doubled, it may not be able to close the entire harbor, so the meaning of Guangnan is not to force the Ming Zheng Navy to fight a decisive battle, but to send off guests in an alternative way.

"My lord, don't chase after me." On the flagship of the Quang Nam Naval Army, an auxiliary officer spoke to the commander-in-chief. "Beware of deception."

Another lieutenant general also said: "The Ming ship is huge, driving the ocean like its own backyard, and although there are many warships in our division, they are of different sizes.

"Needless to say." The commander of the Quang Nam Navy stretched out his hand to stop it. "Immediately Mingjin withdrew his troops, and sent someone to see the Han Island."

"Bastard Quang Nam, why don't you chase it." The shelling of the Handao Fort was originally intended to lure out the Guangnan Fleet under the cover of the Eastern Front Fort, but the opponent attacked, but it stopped at a superficial level, and he was not interested in having a date with the Ming Zheng Navy Division on the ocean, which made Chang Tianyuan and others, who were only one foot away, have to carry out the second set of plans. "Banner, let's kill back!"

So, the [Minjiang] and his party, which turned around and killed, rushed back into Tuoying Bay.

In fact, the veteran Guangnan commander still sent a few warships to tow behind to monitor the movements of the Ming Zheng sailors. But these defensive measures were not enough, and the Zheng warships that were passing by them were not even interested in shelling them, but pounced on the main ship regiment of the Quang Nam Navy like wolves.

The Quang Nam warship, which had heard the warning of the early warning ship, turned around again, but the originally tight formation had become a little chaotic. At this time, the Ming Zheng sailor, who was killed like an arrow from the string, did not give the opponent a chance to reorganize at all, and like a thin blade cutting through tofu, he brushed one wing of the Guangnan boat regiment.

Car hanging, this is the basic tactics of the Zheng Army's naval division, Du Hu and others, who are already familiar with their chests, are marching fast, and the cannons and small cannons are released one after another, in terms of the rotten ships equipped by the Guangnan Naval Army, even the largest and best flagship, a 44-pound heavy artillery shell is enough to be fatal, and as for those small boats that make up the number, they can't even parry 20-pound shells.

Of course, not all eight gunboats fired solid bullets like the Minjiang River, and chain bullets, shotguns, and red-hot bullets could also cause chaos in the Quang Nam naval army. When a shipwrecked ship with a wrecked mast collided with a burning ship, and when a birdship with no surviving sailors hindered friendly ships preparing to fight (escape), even the sluggish people understood that the outcome of this naval battle was already a bad one.

If it is in the open sea, the Quang Nam Navy will face a desperate situation sooner or later, but this is the Inland Sea, and it is really not possible for the Quang Nam Navy to take refuge under the cover of their own batteries, so when the overall situation is unfavorable, the first choice of the former pirates who are not from the regular army is not to fight back but to escape.

Since the resistance of the Guangnan people was weak, and the Ming Zheng Navy Division was not happy to continue to carefully do the ring cutting, the Qiongjia team with Wei's ship [Oujiang] did not continue the tactics of Du Hu's team, but simply rushed straight into the Guangnan naval ship regiment, and the four gunboats opened their bows left and right, making the Guangnan people cry wolf.

Wei was happy in the heart of the people in Guangnan, and Du Hu naturally would not rob him of anything, so the four gunboats such as the [Minjiang] echoed in the periphery, and were attacked by this inside and outside, and more Guangnan ships could not hold on and fled one after another, among which the smart ones directly found a place to run ashore, and some of the foolish ones fled to their own military port under the hostage of the Ming Zheng sailors.

Seeing the defeat in the naval battle, the battery on the Tra Peninsula began to fire to meet its own ships. However, like the Han Island Fort, the caliber of the artillery of the Son Tra Peninsula Fort was too small and the firing range was too close, even the nine-pounder cannon could not pose much threat to the Ming Zheng Naval Division, and it was only fired by Du Hu and his party after covering the escape of more than a dozen of its own ships.

Because the Qiongjia team was still cleaning up the remaining Quang Nam ships on the sea, the Du Hu team's suppression of the Son Tra Peninsula fort was not as effective as the Han Island side, and the military port sandbag battery was also desperately shooting at the Du Hu team at the moment, although it could not cause damage at all, but at least it succeeded in delaying the destruction of the Son Tra Peninsula fort.

"[Cao'e Jiang] was shot?" Chang Tianyuan and Du Hu, who had left the formation after shooting, suddenly appeared and a column of smoke came out of the follow-up ship, and the two who did not dare to slack off ordered almost at the same time. "Hurry up and ask about the casualties."

The flag passed, and the answer quickly came back: "Commander Situ reported that the [Cao'e River] was shot one on the upper deck, two sailors were seriously injured, the other two were slightly injured, and the sail burned a hole. ”

"It's too careless." Du Hu skimmed out with some dissatisfaction, and the subtext was naturally that Situ Da was too close.

But this is the swan song of the Camellia Fort, and then the guarded Ming Zheng Shui Shi carefully kept his distance, and carried out a crazy revenge with raindrops of artillery fire in places out of the reach of the opponent. With a few loud explosions and black smoke rising into the sky, the martyred Camellia Fort was completely destroyed.

"Team Qiongjia." Du Hu also wanted to greet Wei. "Bastard, why did you get ahead of us?" However, he saw that the Qiongjia team of the Quang Nam Fleet, which had already finished packing up and floating on the sea, had begun to shell the sandbag battery. "Banner, leave the Qiongjia team alone, let's rush into the port and clean up the rest of the Guangnan ships****??"

At the end of the afternoon of September 20 in the first year of Taishun, the noisy port of Tuo Rang finally calmed down, except for a very small number of ships that were lucky enough to hide in the Tuo Nian River and the Song Qu River, the main force of the Quang Nam naval army either sank to the bottom of the sea or turned into torches, and even the three forts built by the Ruan lord with huge money were in ruins, while only a very small number of ships on the Ming and Zheng sides suffered insignificant losses, and there were only three casualties in the whole battle, and a total of 11 people were lightly and seriously wounded.

The battle report was delivered to Fuchun as soon as possible, and Lord Ruan was shocked, thinking that Ming Zheng was about to cover Lord Zheng to board 6 in Tuoyang Bay. Ruan Phuchuan, who did not dare to slack off, could only urgently transfer back 3,000 soldiers and horses from the front line of Hengshan. Due to the transfer of troops from the front, the Nguyen army was forced to shrink the defensive line, resulting in the first Great Wall being completely captured by the Zheng lord. However, the terrain of Hengshan prevented Zheng from taking advantage of the victory to pursue, so the two sides continued to fight on the second Great Wall, and the battle was fierce, but the outcome was still confusing.
