Chapter 102: Conquest of Tong Meng
In the evening, Wei Yan finally escorted all the captives to Huangzu Island.
Lin Yuan saw 8 Jinfan thieves, and there was really no mixed river dragon Li Jun among them.
Thinking that Li Jun was cunning, he slipped away while the scuffle.
When these 8 people saw Lin Yuan, they immediately cried and shouted that their mother wanted to take refuge, and they also swore to show their loyalty.
Lin Yuan took them all.
These 8 people are all gold-level generals, and they are fierce generals in water battles, which is enough to make up for the middle-level combat power of the water army.
However, the treatment they took refuge in naturally cannot be compared with Huang Zu's group.
If Huang Zu's group of people can serve as the deputy commander of the battalion and the commander of the thousand.
Then these people can only serve as centurions, or even even chiefs!
Who made these people not have the heart to surrender in the first place, and they only had to surrender if they wanted to survive after being captured.
Such a person, no matter how great his ability is, Lin Yuan has to investigate it.
Arrange for everyone to rest on the island for the night.
The next morning, the 13 island owners who had previously taken refuge in Lin Yuan led their men back to the island.
Each of them has 30 ships and a thousand troops.
13 people, that is, 390 warships, 13,000 men.
In addition, Huang Zu's troops were 3,000 people, and 100 warships.
In this recruitment, Lin Yuan directly obtained 500 warships and 16,000 water pirates.
Lin Yuan broke up all the water thieves, along with the group captured before, and reorganized them.
These water thieves are poorly equipped, have not heard formal training, are not very high-fighting, and many of them are unorganized and disciplined, and it is easy to cause trouble when they get together.
Therefore, Lin Yuan directly selected 3,000 good water from these 16,000 people, and they were disciplined and strong, and served as the reserve of the water master.
As for the remaining 13,000 people, all of them were transported to Yingzhou to return to farming.
These people are far more than the ones who want to return to the farm.
When Huang Zu and 15 others were water thieves, they plundered many people to their island, but the resources on the island could not support so many people.
Now that these 15 islands belong to Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan naturally wants to arrange a way out for this group of people.
Yingzhou is vast and sparsely populated, which is the best way out.
"My lord, there are a total of 15,000 people on Huangzu Island, 1,500 acres of fertile land on the island, 400 acres of coconut groves, 380 acres of banana forests, and 20,000 units of grain stocks on the island!"
"My lord, there are a total of 8,000 people on Ganning Island, 100 acres of fertile land on the island, 180 acres of coconut groves, 110 acres of banana forests, and 10,000 units of grain stocks on the island."
"My lord, there are a total of 11,000 people on Guowei Island, 600 acres of fertile land on the island, 240 acres of coconut groves, 150 acres of banana forests, and 8,000 units of grain stocks on the island."
"The Lord ......"
……
The situation of the 15 islands was quickly told.
There are 138,000 people, 115,000 units of grain stock, 8,000 acres of fertile land, 3,000 acres of coconut groves, and 2,400 acres of banana forests.
The stockpiles of food on the 15 islands are not enough to feed this group of people for a month.
Moreover, there are too few fertile fields on the island.
After the pirates occupied the island, they only knew that the food was out and plundered, and they did not think about self-development at all.
It must be overhauled.
Otherwise, even if these 15 islands are Lin Yuan's territory, they will continue to ask for support.
Lin Yuan immediately waved his hand and directly asked the 10W people to immigrate to Yingzhou.
This group of civilians boarded the ship overnight and transported it in batches through 500 fighting ships.
Lin Yuan had already sent a letter to Zhuge Liang, asking him to return to Yingzhou to receive this group of people.
The population of Yingzhou was originally less than 15W, but Lin Yuan immigrated 10W all of a sudden, which completely solved the problem of insufficient labor in Yingzhou.
Moreover, Yingzhou has a large stock of grain, which can feed this group of people.
The immigration affair lasted until February 27, when it was over.
For the 4W people who stayed, Lin Yuan arranged for them to reclaim farmland on the island and plant coconuts and bananas.
Coconut bananas can be cultivated into a specialty and make a lot of money.
On February 28, another Damingfu boat was launched in the naval camp.
Since the capture of 500 warships, Lin Yuan arranged for Li Bing and others to only supervise the construction of the Daming Fu ship.
The Daming Fu ship is the main battleship of Lin Yuan's naval division.
As for the larger building ships and three-masted gunboats, they are not included in the manufacturing process for the time being.
The reason for this is the complexity of the manufacturing process, the long construction period, and the large number of artillery pieces that need to be equipped.
With the capabilities of the Ordnance Division, it is not possible to make so many artillery.
As for the rest of the small ships, such as the Shipper, they could be captured from the Raider Thief.
On March 1, the lake in Yunmengze further warmed.
A large amount of snow and ice melted.
Lin Yuan transferred 1 Daming Fu ship, 20 wheel ke, 200 red dragon boats, 100 eagle boats, 100 sub-mother ships, and 20,000 sailors from the naval camp.
Taking 2 Daming Fu boats, 30 wheel boats, 300 red dragon boats, 200 eagle boats, 100 mother ships, 80 fighting ships, and 420 shipwreckers, Haohao Tangtang departed from Huangzu Island.
Thousands of sails compete, hundreds of boats compete, and the warfleet shape stretches for more than ten miles.
Raising the flag to avoid the sky, the scene is incomparably huge!
This time, Lin Yuan poured all his strength into the water division and vowed to wipe out the Mirage Tong Meng and others at the ** end of Yunmeng.
Since Tong Meng fled back to his island last time, he directly surrendered to Chen Youliang.
Now, according to Chen Youliang's instructions, the nine of them have built an island chain defense in the waters of Yunmeng, intending to prevent Lin Yuan's eastward advance.
The news of Lin Yuanshui's expedition soon reached Tong Meng's ears.
Tong Meng turned pale with fright, and hurriedly asked the boss Chen Youliang for help.
Chen Youliang immediately appointed Zhang Dingbian as the governor of the navy division and led 15,000 sailors to help.
The two sides fought a decisive battle at Anlu Bay.
On Lin Yuan's side, there were 20,000 people, distributed in the southwest islands of Anlu Bay, while the Chen Han army led by Zhang Dingbian, together with Tong Meng and other water thieves, totaled 25,000 people and was stationed in the northeast islands of Anlu.
The number of people is small, and Zhang Dingbian is completely dominant.
On the first day, the two sides sent hundreds of small warships to test each other.
The results were not long in coming.
Zhang Dingbian's speedboat was half destroyed, and the non-commissioned officers suffered 188 casualties, while Lin Yuan lost 20 ships, and the non-commissioned officers suffered 78 casualties.
The casualty ratio was 2:1, with Lin Yuan having a slight advantage.
This water decisive battle was also directly transmitted to the Internet.
Many people found out that Lin Ziyi, who was very inactive, actually secretly established a water army.
There are those who are envious, those who are surprised, and those who are jealous.
There has been so much news lately, and none of them have exploded.
Since the end of the gluttonous activities, the lords of various places have used points to exchange for generals and resources, vigorously develop the military, and have attacked from all sides, competing for territory with each other.
The entire Chinese region has already been slaughtered into a pot of porridge.
Lin Yuan, who developed steadily, was somewhat forgotten.
Now, Lin Yuan has made some moves again, that is, he directly fights with Chen Youliang in Yunmengze.
When the news came out, there were also thousands of waves on the Internet.
