Chapter 201: The First World War Collapsed

After Yu Zhigao cleaned up his mood, he straightened his waist, pressed the handle of the knife on his waist with his left hand, waved his right hand forward, and shouted loudly: "Pass my order, beat the drum and raise the flag, and meet the pirates!" Violators are engaged in military law! ……”

After a short time in the official and military fleet, a rumbling war drum began to sound, and a red battle flag was also raised on Yu Zhigao's ship, which represented the meaning of the whole army, so although the official and military sailors were frightened, they still reluctantly began to raise their sails and accelerate, and met the fleet of sea wolves.

And Yu Xiaotian also said coldly: "Order! There are all of them, with the main ships lined up in a column, and the rest of the ships attack on both wings, and break through them directly from the middle lane! Whether the sea wolf can rise depends on today's battle ......"

In the sling on the top of the mast, a standard-bearer quickly began to wave the two small flags in his hand, and the order of the sea wolf was conveyed, and the fleet of the sea wolves began to change formations, gradually forming a column formation with large ships as the mainstay, and the light ships were divided into two wings, forming a formation like an arrow cluster, and only rushed towards the official and military fleet.

After a while, a rumbling cannon sound began to sound on the sea, and the pupils of Yu Xiaotian's eyes shrank suddenly, and he couldn't help but show a disdainful smile on his face, and said with a cold smile: "It seems that the old problems of the official army can't be changed!" When you see a battle, you will fire the cannon first, and run away after the battle! Such an opponent is really speechless! Humph......"

After two hours passed, the sound of cannons on the sea began to gradually thin out, and the entire sea surface in the northern part of Nanri Island turned into a sea of fire on the water.

The wreckage of countless ships floated on the water, some of which were still burning, and nearly 200 ships of the officers and navy divisions, in the fierce battle of less than two hours, one-third of the ships had sunk to the bottom of this water, and many of them simply disintegrated on the surface of the sea and turned into a large piece of debris.

Most of the remaining ships chose to hang up the white cloth and surrender, and the Fujian sailors, who looked majestic yesterday, were reduced to nothing in just two hours, leaving less than thirty warships, guarding Yu Zhigao's handsome ship, and the wolf bèi fled into the Nanri waterway, and after turning, he ate enough wind and fled in the direction of Quanzhou.

But whether they can escape from the pursuit of the sea wolf fleet is unknown, because at this time, there are more than a dozen sea wolf flying fast boats, which have been chased by the tail, and it is estimated that as long as the sea wolf does not deliberately release the water, it will be difficult for the remnants of Yu Zhigao's ships to escape back to Quanzhou safely.

A large number of surrendered official ships had already dropped their sails at this time, and all the officers and soldiers who surrendered were forced to lie on the deck with their heads held by the swords and guns of the Sea Wolf Division, waiting for the next disposition.

The fleet of the sea wolf slashed into the official fleet like a giant axe under the leadership of the filial piety ship.

Yu Zhigao led the army to resist, He Nai regardless of equipment or training level, they are not at the same level as the sea wolf, under the dense artillery fire of the sea wolf, they can't even go up to fight the gunwale, and a large number of warships were bombarded into slag by the sea wolf's fierce artillery fire.

Under such a fierce head-on blow, the official army and naval division almost collapsed instantly, completely no longer obeyed Yu Zhigao's command, and became a plate of loose sand.

A large number of officers and soldiers completely ignored Yu Zhigao's military orders and turned their bows one after another in an attempt to flee the battlefield, causing the entire officer and army fleet to completely lose its effective organization.

Just a hedge, the official army and sailors collapsed completely, Yu Zhigao saw that the huge fleet, in front of the sea wolf's fleet, was so vulnerable, in the blink of an eye, it became a plate of scattered sand, several times ordered to try to close the fleet, but there were not many ships to obey his orders.

Yu Zhigao was angry and wanted to use military law, but at this moment, the sea was in chaos, who did he use military law! After many times of unobeyed commands, Yu Zhigao almost pulled out a knife and killed himself on the spot, and was finally stopped by his own soldiers, so he did not succeed in committing suicide.

Seeing that the situation was irreparable, Yu Zhigao couldn't take care of it too much, so he had to order a retreat, gathered some official and military ships directly under him, and took advantage of the chaos to start fleeing.

If it weren't for the chaotic official warships that hindered them, Yu Zhigao would not have been able to escape from the battlefield at all, but fortunately, the situation on the sea was too chaotic, although the sea wolf saw Yu Zhigao turn around and escape, but because of many frightened official and military warships, blocked their passage and blocked their channel, making them unable to pursue for a while, which allowed Yu Zhigao to escape into the Nanri waterway.

This naval battle can be said to have ended without any suspense, and the Seawolf's fleet, after defeating the official fleet, also disbanded itself, and began to clean up the battlefield and pursue the enemy ships with a squad of three or four sterns.

The warships of the official and military sailors fled in all directions at this time, but they still could not escape from the palm of the sea wolf, the more so, the faster they were killed, the sea wolf has a lot of flying clippers, the speed of the ship is much faster than the speed of the official and military warships, it is not easy to run, so after Yu Xiaotian ordered a separate pursuit, many official and military warships were quickly caught up by the sea wolf ships.

The officers and men who had long lost their will to fight, unable to fight and unable to escape, could only bow their heads and announce their surrender in frustration, and under the orders of the sea wolf troops, they lowered their sails one after another and surrendered to the sea wolf.

However, the end of the naval battle does not mean the end of the Second Great War on Nanri Island, because at this time, there are still seven or eight thousand officers and soldiers stationed on Nanri Island, and these officers and soldiers are all land divisions.

When these people started the war, they were all staring at it on the island, and when they saw the appearance of the sea wolf fleet, they were all stunned, and then the battle between the sailors of the two sides made the officers and soldiers on the island even more frightened, and almost collapsed on the shore on the spot.

Seeing that their huge officers, troops, and sailors were disintegrating in the face of the attack of the sea wolf fleet like rolling soup and pouring snow, the psychological blow to the officers and soldiers on the shore was so great that it was naturally needless to mention.

And at this moment, suddenly in the eastern mountains behind them, there was a shout of killing, and an army of more than a thousand people suddenly rushed out of the mountains and quickly advanced towards their backs.

And this army, all dressed in indigo clothing, is the standard military uniform of the sea wolf's army, after rushing out of the valley, with only one charge, the closest to them a thousand officers and soldiers scattered, even only three rounds of guns, followed by a bayonet charge, this army of more than 1,000 officers and soldiers became a plate of tofu scum, was completely scattered.

At this time, it was Chen Wencan, a Fujian staff general, who was in charge of the troops on the island, and when he saw the defeat of the naval division on the shore, he was actually frightened, but he thought that in the absence of Yu Zhigao, the island was already his largest, and the land division was also under his command, so he still fought hard and ordered the generals to gather their troops and horses and quickly retreat into the island.

But he never imagined that in the mountains east of the island, he didn't know when, there was still such a wave of soldiers and horses, although there were not many of them, but they suddenly appeared, broke up a team of their officers and soldiers, and killed two thousand generals on the spot, and a guerrilla with soldiers was also captured alive by them on the spot.

So Chen Wencan hurriedly led the army to speed up and retreat into the island, preparing to choose a place to hold on and wait for reinforcements, because he knew that once they stayed on the seaside, it would be impossible for them to prevent a large number of sea wolves from landing.

He had already seen the fierceness of the sea wolf's artillery fire, although it was said that he would defeat the enemy in the middle of the crossing, but it also depended on the situation.

With their current morale and equipment, when their sailors are all wiped out, guarding the shore and trying to prevent the sea wolf from landing on the island is purely looking for death.

The sea wolf's fleet has a large number of artillery, and he only needs to get close to the shore and shell them, and his soldiers and horses will be broken up immediately, and he doesn't want to resist the sea wolf's landing on the island.

This Chen Wencan is not a wine bag and rice bag, he is different from Yu Zhigao and Zhang Jiace, Yu Zhigao and Zhang Jiace are both Jiangmen families, and their official positions have been hereditary since birth, while Chen Wencan is a military general who has been promoted to martial arts, and he is considered to be a net worth all the way.

Therefore, such a person has quite rich combat experience, and it is by no means easy to deal with, and many large-scale operations in Fujian to suppress bandits were mostly led by Chen Wencan, and he has won one victory after another, and he is even much stronger than Yu Zhigao in grasping the battlefield.

Today, when he saw the great defeat of Yu Zhigao's fleet, he immediately made a decision, and without hesitation, he began to gather the troops and horses on the shore and immediately withdraw to the island, so as to prevent the freed sea wolf fleet from approaching the shore to shell the officers and men on the shore.

This time against the sea wolf, although the official army brought a lot of Hongyi cannons, including the land division also carried four Hongyi cannons, but when they landed on Nanri Island, they did not encounter any resistance from the sea wolves, so their Hongyi cannons did not work.

The officers and soldiers never thought that the sea wolves would actually kill back to Nanri Island at this time, and defeated the official army and sailors in one fell swoop, and they had no preparations before, and the four Hongyi cannons were still in the camp and were not dragged out.

The Hongyi cannons of the officers and soldiers weighed a lot, each of them was more than 3,000 catties, and their gun trucks were also very primitive and clumsy, which increased the weight of the cannons, and moved very slowly.
