Chapter 182: Goodbye Nanri Island

Xu Xinsu actually has an account in his heart, as a businessman, he is better at calculating, in his heart, maybe the number of sea wolves is not as many as the official army, but the combat effectiveness of a single ship is far more than that of the official army, so on the surface, the sailors of the official army are very good, but in fact, in terms of combat power, I am afraid that they are not the opponent of the sea wolf.

Now he was forced to take refuge in the government, mixed with the name of a hundred households, and now there is no way out, he can only pin his hope on this time the sea wolf will retreat in the face of difficulties, and not fight to the death with the official army on Nanri Island to the end, and also hope that this time the fleet of the red-haired people who came to cooperate with the officials and troops to attack the sea wolves together, hoping that once the sea wolves counterattack, the fleet of the red-haired people can block the fleet of these sea wolves.

As long as the official army can succeed this time, then he can continue to do his business in the future, but once the official army loses again this time, then his sea trade, it is estimated that it will be the end, he knows better than anyone that once the official army fails this time, I am afraid that within a few years, there will be no strength to deal with the sea wolf, and this Fujian sea will completely become the territory of the sea wolf, and he will be completely hopeless if he wants to do maritime trade in Fujian.

So no matter what the purpose, this time Xu Xinsu was tied to the chariot of the government, and he could only go against the sea wolf.

But because of this, Xu Xinsu's reputation is also stinky, everyone now knows that the sea wolf took the initiative to help Xu Xinsu deal with Zheng Yiguan, Zheng Yiguan was just forced out of Fujian by the sea wolf, he Xu Xinsu turned against the government to deal with the sea wolf, and now when it comes to Xu Xinsu, many people scold him for not being a thing.

As for Chu Cailao and Yan Siqi, because they have to rely on Xiaotian's breath to survive, they dare not deal with Xu Xinsu anymore, and treat Xu Xinsu as an enemy together, as long as Xu Xinsu's ship is offshore, it will be intercepted by the sea wolf or Chu Cailao's people, so that Xu Xinsu does not even dare to go out in the past few months.

The fleet of officers and soldiers marched out of Shenhu Bay, completed the assembly on the sea, and began to sail against the wind towards Nanri Island, at this time it was the northwest wind blowing on the sea, and for Yu Zhigao's fleet, sailing from Yongningwei to Nanri Island was sailing against the wind, which made their speed very slow.

Soon after they went out to sea, a dhow sailed above the sea level, and two carrier pigeons were immediately released from the boat, and after flying around the ship a few times on the sea, the carrier pigeons decided the direction and immediately flapped their wings and flew north.

Yu Xiaotian finally turned his head and glanced at the wolf's den village behind him, at this time the wolf's den village had become a ruin, and the fortress-shaped wall, which was originally built with great difficulty, was all blown up at this time, including the wall, and was also demolished, losing its original appearance.

At this time, the houses in the stockade had already ignited a sky-high fire, and thick smoke rose into the sky, spreading in the sky, covering the sky and the sun.

Even the original commercial inn has now been largely demolished, and the timber used for building houses and ships has been loaded onto more than a dozen large sand boats and transported to some nearby islands or Tamsui City.

Including the dock by the sea, it has now been completely demolished, only a few empty slipways and some houses remain, and the dock doors of the two docks have also been demolished at this time, and seawater has poured into the dock, making the dock also look like a ruin, and if you want to restore it, it is estimated that it will take a lot of effort.

It seemed that they had returned to the way they had been when Yu Xiaotian first came here a few years ago, and the entire Nanri Island suddenly became desolate.

In addition to Yu Xiaotian, the last people on the ship to leave here also looked silently at the burning Dazhai, which used to be their home, but now it has become a ruin, some of the old subordinates of the sea wolves, even can't help but moisten the corners of their eyes, here has recorded their glory, witnessed them step by step from a group of small pirates to the overlord of the Fujian Sea, but because of this official army to suppress, every qiē will be turned into ashes.

Of course, they didn't feel too sad about this, because they understood that they were not scared away by the official army, the reason why they gave up here was to obtain greater benefits in the future, the sea wolf was an undefeated powerhouse, as long as their big boss Yu Xiaotian was still there, then they didn't have to worry about not being able to return here.

When they come back here, this place will once again become a battlefield, and let the government know that their sea wolves are powerful, and they will never dare to trouble them again.

Yu Xiaotian boarded the New Seawolf, and this New Seawolf is already the fourth ship named after the Seawolf, and this ship is no longer a Chinese-style Fuchuan ship type, but a Galen ship with a displacement of about three or four hundred tons.

And this Galen ship is the same Spanish ship that Yu Xiaotian led his team to capture, but now this ship has been completely repaired and transformed into his new ship, and it has also become the general flagship of all the fleets of the Sea Wolves.

The ship has been completely refurbished from the inside out, the damaged parts have been replaced with new wood, and the hull has been further strengthened, so that its ability to carry artillery has been improved to a certain extent.

More importantly, the steering device of this ship has also been completely replaced with a set of steering wheel steering device, which is no longer the previous rudder operating mechanism, which makes the operation performance of the ship have been improved, and the sailing has become much more flexible and light.

The sail on the mast, also under the guidance of Xiaotian, has been modified and improved to make its operation simpler, and the ability to sail in the wind is stronger, although the speed of the ship has not increased much, but it has been improved to a certain extent, and a statue of the original bow position has now been removed and replaced with a statue of a wolf's head.

However, it is a pity that Yu Xiaotian did not find a good carver, and the wolf head carved by the woodcarver did not satisfy him, and it became a pity somewhat, but after changing the wolf head, the boat still seemed to be more majestic.

Yu Xiaotian stood on the stern of the ship, turned around, no longer looked at the big village with the smoke of the flames behind him, took a deep breath and said, "Order, set sail!" I'll be back soon! I promise I'll bring you back with me, and we'll rebuild it when the time comes! ”

All the crew members on the ship immediately straightened their waists, put their feet together, and collectively saluted Yu Xiaotian with a standard modern military salute, and shouted: "Obey!" The sea wolf will win! ”

As the roar of the crew of the Seawolf sounded, the ships in the entire bay sounded one after another a roar of the Seawolf's victory, a green command flag was raised on the seawolf's auxiliary mast, and one by one, under the hard rowing and rocking of the sailors, began to drag the big ship, and slowly sailed away from the dock, thinking about sailing outside the mouth of the bay.

The number of this fleet is not large, because after more than ten days of rush transportation, most of the materials and personnel on Nanri Island have been transported away from Nanri Island at this time, and the rest is only the last group of evacuees.

Of course, on this silent surface, it is not so simple, because in the mountains east of Nanri Island, there are still more than a thousand people hiding in the Sea Wolf Army.

The Seawolf Army of this battalion was personally led by Li Dazui, the army commander, and all of them were hidden in the mountains, and no one would find out their existence if they did not search the mountains thoroughly.

And this time Yu Xiaotian did not insist on sitting on Nanri Island in person, but the last group to evacuate here, just this morning, he received the news from the carrier pigeon, the official army finally moved, Dinghai City and Yongningwei The officers and troops assembled in Dinghai City and Yongningwei all began to set sail yesterday and set sail towards Nanri Island, including the official army and land division stationed in Xinghua Mansion, at this time all the camps were also closed, and no one was allowed to leave the camp without authorization, and entered the guard.

Until this time, Yu Xiaotian ordered a fire to be lit, and the last remaining houses in the Seawolf Village, which had been demolished, were completely set on fire and burned down, and the last group of people who stayed behind followed him to leave here.

However, when they evacuated, although most of the buildings were demolished and burned, the trestle piers everywhere were not destroyed, which gave people the feeling of a hastily evacuated sea wolf, and it was more convenient for the officers and soldiers to land on the island here to load and unload supplies.

The fleet of the sea wolf, under the leadership of the sea wolf, took one last look at Nanri Island, each ship was led by the sea wolf, sounded three horns in turn, and then the fleet completed the assembly on the sea, first sailed east to the east of Nanri Island, and then began to lose Yang Fan in the direction of Wuqiu Island.

Not long after they left, several official ships sailed out of Xinghua Bay and headed for Nanri Island, but before they could approach Nanri Island, they immediately saw several Feizi clippers rushing towards them.

After only a short exchange of fire, all of these official and military sentry ships were captured or destroyed by the Seawolf's Feizi Clipper Team, although the Seawolf had evacuated Nanri Island, but still left a group of dozens of Feizi clippers, cruising in the Nanri waterway and north and south, maintaining a blockade of Nanri Island, and not allowing anyone or ships to approach Nanri Island.

Therefore, although the officers and soldiers were far away on land, they could see the billowing smoke rising from the sky in the direction of Nanri Island, but they could not find out the specific situation on Nanri Island, and they could only know what the situation was on Nanri Island after the large fleet arrived here.
