After entering midnight, Feng De judged that the official fleet had completely relaxed, so he led his detachment to quietly approach the official fleet under the control of the lights, and according to the predetermined plan, one after another, followed the official fleet, and blended into them.

The officers and soldiers didn't notice their appearance at all, and continued to sail forward in ignorance, so they secretly selected their respective targets and approached them.

After successfully leading his team to infiltrate the enemy fleet, Feng De immediately began to attack, and when the enemy did not notice that they were in existence, each ship chose an enemy ship to approach, and suddenly attacked some of the enemy ships with Molotov cocktails, causing some enemy ships to catch fire.

After launching, they did not hesitate to start fighting the enemy ships with artillery and rockets and other weapons, in fact, with their own armament, it is basically impossible to kill many enemy ships.

Because their ships are not large, they are just more flexible, and the guns on board are not large, mainly six-pounder guns and twelve-pounder short guns, which are acceptable in close range, but it is not easy to sink enemy ships easily.

However, Feng De did not seek to destroy many enemy ships, their main purpose was to attack and disturb the official fleet, so they immediately began to evacuate after a fierce fight, and each ship was ordered not to fight, only to mess up the other party.

So after a short assault on the enemy ships, they began to withdraw, and after they withdrew from the battle, but the cannon fire of the official fleet did not stop, it was still rumbling, and they did not know what they were fighting, in short, it was a standard night attack on the sea, although they could not tell how many enemies and enemy ships were killed and wounded, but for them, the purpose had now been achieved.

And at this time, they also saw that there were some lights in the distance, it should be a fleet, which was heading towards this side, so Feng De didn't stop much, and immediately sent a rocket order, and the fleet sailed to their assembly place.

Although they came in groups, when they left, because the ships had already fought separately, although they withdrew from the battle, it was impossible to reorganize the fleet, so according to their original plan, after the attack was successful, the ships withdrew on their own, rushed to the assembly point to rendezvous, and then returned to Wuqiu Yu to meet the main fleet.

Long after they retreated, the chaos of the official and military fleets had not completely ended, and the beaten official and military fleets did not know that the enemy ships had already evacuated at this time, and as long as some people were still firing artillery, they did not dare to stop, and in order to protect themselves, they did not care about identifying the identities of the surrounding ships at this time, and as long as they felt that the other party was a threat to them, they continued to fire regardless of it.

In such a chaos, even the Dutch fleet that hurried over did not dare to continue to approach the flotilla of the officers and soldiers, and could only watch the chaos of the flotilla of the officers and soldiers from a distance.

The result was that this chaos lasted for two hours before it gradually subsided, and then looked at the sea at this time, the entire official and military fleets had been completely dispersed, and the division was on a very large sea, only about half of the fleet remained, and they were not wrapped up in this chaos, and under the leadership of Yu Zhigao, they first approached the shore and avoided this chaos.

By the time the final chaos on the sea was over, the wreckage of a dozen destroyed ships had been floated horizontally, and these ships were burned, but they were still smoking and simmering, like piles of big bonfires on the sea, burning and crackling.

There were also some ships that were destroyed by cannons of unknown people, the hulls were beaten to tatters, struggling to float on the water, and the officers and men on board were also killed and wounded, but they were all bloody.

Of course, some ships were crashed, and when the night attack began, some officers or helmsmen on the ship tried to break away from the battle group because they panicked and hurriedly turned the rudder, but in the midst of the tension, safety could not be guaranteed at night at all, and as a result, in the chaos, a large number of collisions occurred on the official ships, and many official ships scrambled to escape first, and as a result, they collided with each other.

The third situation is the most important reason for the damage of official ships, which is more than the number of ships that have been destroyed and burned, and the official ships are different in shape and size, and if a large ship hits a small boat, the big ship is not a big problem, but the small boat is unlucky, and it is often hit and injured on the spot, and the heavy ship is sunk on the spot.

At this time, it is winter, even the sea temperature on the Fujian side is very low, some officers and soldiers have to jump into the sea to escape, but they cannot be rescued at night at all, they can only struggle in the sea water, the temperature is very low, and they quickly lose a lot of heat, and finally lead to hypothermia shock, and the result is that they are drowned alive, and after dawn, the bodies of many officers and soldiers naturally float on the sea surface.

Yu Zhigao waited until dawn in horror before daring to return to the sea with the rest of the ships and begin to count the losses during the night.

After some inventory, the green tendons on Yu Zhigao's forehead jumped, he knew very well that the number of enemy ships that attacked them last night was not much, but the other party had mastered their psychology, the key was to cause their chaos, and now it seems that the enemy was completely successful, which basically caused a battalion roar of the officers and soldiers at sea, so that the officers and soldiers carried out a cannibalistic battle at night.

As a result, overnight, Yu Shigao's fleet lost more than 20 ships, some of which were burned, some were destroyed, and some were destroyed by themselves, and the number of officers and men lost reached several hundred, and only a small number of shrewd officers and men abandoned the small sampan they were carrying, and they were finally rescued by climbing the sampan.

Yu Zhigao felt more aggrieved in his heart, they had just set off for more than a day, and they were still not a short distance away from Nanri Island, so they suffered such losses, and they didn't even see a single hair of the enemy, so they lost more than 20 ships and hundreds of officers and soldiers.

This is a heavy blow to their morale, and Yu Zhigao finally regrets it now, regretting that he shouldn't rush to Nanri Island to grab any first credit, but let the sea wolf take advantage of the loophole during the night voyage.

These damn sea wolves are really not easy to mess with, and they dare to launch an attack on such a large fleet at sea in the dark night, which also makes Yu Zhigao understand why the sea wolves have been able to crisscross the coast of Fujian in the past few years and win many battles.

Judging from the actions of the enemy alone, it can be seen that they are not only bold and careful, but also have the ability to fight at night beyond ordinary people, and their ability to operate boats at sea is far better than that of their officers, soldiers, and sailors.

This made Yu Zhigao, who was originally full of confidence, have a strong sense of frustration, although he has long known that the sea wolf is very strong, but he did not expect that the sea wolf is so strong, and the seemingly impossible thing was actually done by them, and it only used a small amount of strength to cause such a big loss to the official army.

Yu Zhigao looked at the sea with debris floating everywhere, and couldn't help but be afraid for a while, fortunately, there were not many attack ships from the sea wolves yesterday, if the sea wolves poured out of the nest last night, it was guaranteed that his fleet would be completely wiped out overnight last night, in that case, not to mention the first merit he grabbed to capture Nanri Island, and even his life was estimated to be difficult to protect.

After thinking of this, Yu Zhigao was like a punctured tire, and suddenly became a little deflated, and hastily ordered the fleet to clean up the mess, scuttle the damaged ships, and drag some ships to the shore if they can be repaired, find a place to put them first, and arrange people to repair them simply, as for the bodies of those floating officers and soldiers, they sent people to salvage them simply, but many of the corpses have slowly sunk into the water before they can pick them up.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Yu Zhigao ordered the fleet to continue to advance, and sent someone to inform the red-haired people, so that in the next few days, they must follow the official fleet and protect the flank of the official fleet.

In this regard, Waite also immediately nodded and agreed, last night, the chaos of the Ming Dynasty's official army and sailors, they only understood the reason at dawn, and learned that the sea wolf sent an attack ship, and after attacking the official army fleet at night, even Waite had to readjust his understanding of the sea wolf and felt the heavy pressure.

He secretly pondered to himself, it seems that this group of Chinese pirates who call themselves sea wolves are indeed extraordinary, and tactics such as night raids at sea, even they Dutch do not dare to do it lightly, because sailing at night is itself very dangerous, and it takes courage and skill to break into the enemy fleet that is much stronger than them.

However, the sea wolf still managed to do this, successfully attacked the official convoy, and even more successfully caused the chaos of the official and naval divisions, causing them to kill each other for half the night, causing huge losses.

Based on this alone, he had to admit that the courage and ability of the Sea Wolf tribe were extraordinary, and this opponent was not as simple as he thought, so he also put away the arrogance in his heart and began to become cautious.

After the next few days of sailing, Yu Zhigao completely reined in, and no longer dared to sail at night in order to hurry, after this lesson, he led the fleet to find a place to temporarily anchor on the shore every day before dark, and strengthened the defense.

However, the sea wolves did not continue to harass them, and there were still one or two boats every day, observing their movements from afar.

Yu Zhigao was very unhappy about this, and carefully observed the binoculars he bought from the red-haired man at a high price, and sent a few clippers to expel the few boats of the sea wolves that accompanied him like a shadow.

But the sea wolf was not afraid of them at all, if there were few boats, they would be beaten up in the face, and for this reason, they also killed two sentinel boats of the officers and soldiers, but as long as Yu Zhigao sent more boats, they would immediately slip away and not give Yu Zhigao a chance.

Even Waite had sent two smaller ships over, but the Sea Wolves' ships did not engage them at all, and immediately avoided them.

This made Yu Zhigao even more depressed, and he couldn't use his strength, so he could only stare dryly.
