Chapter 476: The Battle of Xiamen Bay Ends

In the chaos just now, Aberqua didn't care about anything else, and rushed outward. Although several battleships were intercepted by Ming warships. But the first several warships rushed out.

In the darkness, the only seven remaining battleships were not lit at all. It's just that I'm afraid of leaking myself.

Aberqua led the way, and he looked around with a clairvoyant mirror, but he couldn't see anything but a sea of fire behind him, only a leaping fire behind him.

It's like a blind man riding a blind horse, and he is in a deep pool in the middle of the night.

But Aberquer didn't dare to stop, or even slow down. He was afraid that after dawn, he would be in Xiamen Bay, and that would be completely over.

The only thing that makes him happy is the tide of synodic hope, which is generally the fifteenth and sixteenth of the lunar calendar, and even if there is an error, it is not a few days. Therefore, the moonlight is still good, and it is not a dark night where you can't see your fingers. But even under such moonlight, the silhouette of the ship could not be seen clearly from a mile away.

When I just rushed out. In a hurry, he also got the wrong direction, and although he was now orienting from the angle of the moon, he couldn't figure out his own position.

When Aberqua didn't know where to go, he suddenly saw a point of light flickering on the sea level in the distance.

It was as if a star had fallen into the sea.

But Aberqua knew it wasn't, it was a lamp, or a ship.

The flickering point of light was getting closer and closer, closer and closer, and Aberqua could see it clearly, and although he couldn't tell what ship it was, he could see the trajectory of the ship.

This is just the beginning.

A ship took the lead, and a bright light seemed to be a galaxy, slowly coming from a distance, moving opposite to the battlefield of the Franc machine, getting closer and closer.

Aberqua found his way.

"At this time, such a large fleet cannot be found in this sea area, they must be the fleet that blocks the bay. As long as you follow the route they came from, you will definitely be able to rush out. ”

Aberqua ordered softly, saying, "Put out all the lights and go against this fleet." ”

Aberqua's command was whispered. Seven Franc boats, lined up, slowly rowed across the sea, barely making a sound.

The two fleets were about a mile apart in Xiamen Bay, facing each other.

Maybe the top of the Ming fleet was too bright, or maybe the night was too dark for them to see. And so it was.

Waiting for the Ming army's fleet to pass over the continent, Aberkui let out a sigh of relief, only to feel that his back was completely wet with sweat.

"God forbid, we're finally out."

When the day was dark, Aberqua saw the endless East China Sea again, and before they knew it, they had rushed out of Xiamen Bay.

Only then did Aberqua put his mind down.

It's just that when he thinks of the current situation, Aberqua's joy of escaping death is suddenly gone. In the battle of Xiamen Bay, the biggest chip in his hand was redeemed alive, what else did he do to block Dongyong's attack on Malacca? As soon as he thought of this, the frustration in his heart was difficult to suppress. He already had a premonition that Malacca would not be able to hold it.

However, he quickly collected his mood and said, "Immediately join the transport." Let's go home. ”

There is no better word than going home to stimulate the minds of all his subordinates, and although Malacca is not their home, it does not prevent them from yearning for Malacca.

The first battle of Xiamen Bay was not fully achieved. Huang Shilong pleaded guilty to Mu Youwei worriedly: "You deserve to die for your humble position." I have disappointed my lords, and I ask you to punish him, and he is willing to die. ”

Mu Youwei stared at Huang Shilong with a pair of tiger eyes, trying to see something from Huang Shilong's eyes and face. But he didn't see anything.

"What is Lord Huang's crime?" Mu Youwei's originally tense face suddenly smiled and said.

To be honest, Mu Youwei was not too satisfied with the battle that Huang Shilong fought, but he knew that except for Huang Shilong, other sailor generals, even such a result might not be able to fight.

At least this kind of record is enough for Mu Youwei to explain to the above, and it is even enough to make him one level higher. He will not punish those who have merit.

In fact, Huang Shilong also knows a little bit about this. But if you don't do much, you just don't do it. How can you not have an attitude of pleading guilty?

Mu Youwei said: "Master Huang broke the Buddha Lang machine, and the only few ships escaped. No worries. This official will give you credit for Lord Huang. Lord Huang wants a reward, just say it. ”

The Chinese language is really broad and profound, and with a slight polish of the text, the meaning completely changes to another meaning. And Mu Youwei's level is still limited. Those masters who work with knives and pens, this battle that did not do their best, I don't know what it looks like.

However, it's okay, no matter what, the battle of Xiamen Bay is still a victory.

As soon as Huang Shilong heard Mu Youwei's words, he let go of a little worry in his heart, and immediately said: "Humble positions, they are all promoted by adults, and adults have a heavenly and generous grace for their humble positions. ”

"You have the heart to refuse, but the reward and punishment of the official are clear, and those who should be rewarded are indispensable, and those who should be punished are indispensable." Mu Youwei said. He thought about it carefully, and suddenly thought, "I'll promote you to the commander of Yongningwei, right?" ”

Huang Shilong was taken aback, slightly stunned, he almost couldn't believe his ears, Commander Yongningwei? But it is a big official, and there are only four or five guards in the entire coastal area of Fujian, and Yongningwei is among them. Huang Shilong's qualifications are very shallow, he was still a hundred households a few years ago, and he was reported by Mu Youwei, and he became a thousand households in just a few years. It was originally over-moved, and then promoted to commander, and it was over-moved again.

"My lord, although I have an inch of merit in my humble position, I should not command the heavy responsibility, please think twice." Huang Shilong didn't know whether it was a true prevarication or a false prevarication, anyway, it was a serious prevarication.

Yongningwei was the most defeated guard in the battle with the Franco. The fleet under the direct jurisdiction of Yongning Wei was almost completely wiped out, and even the commander was buried in the sea, becoming the highest military attache who was killed in battle with the Franc machine.

Mu Youwei specially pushed Huang Shilong onto the throne of the commander of Yongningwei, of course, to appreciate Huang Shilong's ability. But it may not be that he feels the threat of Dongyong.

Once Dongyong really makes trouble, Fujian will bear the brunt, Mu Youwei, as the chief soldier of Fujian, is not familiar with water warfare, and he does not select more naval generals to put by his side, and he himself can't feel at ease.

The news of the Battle of Xiamen Bay spread like the wind.

The storm on the southeast coast subsided.

Wei Dalin was relieved in his heart, knowing that in this battle, the Franc machine suffered heavy damage. I shouldn't stay in the Dongyong area for long. However, Wei Dalin was still not very relieved, and he immediately mobilized all the eyeliners of Dongyong to search for the fleet of the Franc machine in the South Seas. It wasn't until the search found the traces of the Franc Mechanic Sailor going south in Lingyamen that he breathed a sigh of relief.

But that was a few days later. At that time, Wei Dalin was really relieved.

At the same time, another battlefield has been won. Not elsewhere, on the Spice Islands.

Liu Bochen's envoy to the Sultan of Tidore Island rushed to the stronghold of Franc Ji step by step with a shield cart. And the artillery pressed behind the shield car, and the two sides began to fire at each other.

Artillery fire from both sides was fired.

At this time, Dongyong's artillery had an advantage, which was not the focus of the operation of the Franc machine. So the artillery is not not enough in number, in fact, in terms of ships. Dongyong may not be as good as the Franc machine, but in terms of artillery, Dongyong is not inferior to the Franc machine. Therefore, Dongyong has an overwhelming advantage.

The dense fence could not stop the bombardment of the Franc artillery, and one shell after another smashed on it, breaking the wooden stakes one by one. However, the cannon of the Franc machine man was also weak, and the shield carts were destroyed one after another.

The Dongyong army here is not an army, most of them are naval forces. Not good at attacking cities.

So the local indigenous soldiers who rushed to the front.

The Franc robot man is not a vegetarian, even under artillery bombardment, it is not without counterattack, and the biggest damage to the following is not artillery, but muskets.

The Franc man dug a trench outside the fence. There were musketeers hiding inside, and as soon as the native soldiers rushed over, they were bombarded by a volley of muskets.
