At this moment, Wu Xingzuo, the governor of Liangguang in Guangzhou Prefecture, was having a heated discussion with Bai Yin Dali, the general of Guangzhou.

"I don't agree with the mobilization of troops and horses to Leizhou at this moment, I should gather the naval division warships now and immediately send troops to Qiongzhou." Wang Xingzuo's face is red-eared and equatorial.

"I mean, we should go out to the naval division warship and go together to exterminate the pirates in the direction of Leizhou."

"Then the green battalions in the Liangguang region are gathering forces to recover Qiongzhou." Baiyin Dali said.

"Look at the battle report in the direction of Leizhou, you also know that now the Haikou is attacking the coastal area of Leizhou." Baiyin Dali threw the battle report of the Leizhou general soldier on the desk.

"As long as we dispatch the Green Battalion and cooperate with the Liangguang Naval Division to annihilate the pirate sailors who are harassing the coast of Leizhou, then Qiongdao will naturally be worry-free." The general of Guangzhou, Bai Yindali, shouted angrily.

It can be said that the two have a big disagreement on where to use troops.

Why doesn't Wu Xingzuo understand the meaning of Baiyin Dali?

After all, Qiongzhou has fallen now, but Leizhou is still there.

Naturally, it is necessary to solve the problem of Leizhou, and then solve Qiongdao.

But the question is, the news of the fall of Qiongzhou has been reported to Jingshi, what should the saint blame at that time?

He is a general in Guangzhou, and he was born in the Eight Banners.

The final scapegoat is none other than himself, the governor of Liangguang.

Therefore, Wu Xingzuo still hoped that before the news of the Beijing division arrived, he would immediately send the green battalion soldiers to land on Qiongdao and solve the Haikou problem.

Bayindarri, on the other hand, is much more realistic.

He was keenly aware that the Haikou who occupied Qiong Island this time seemed to be very unusual.

You must know that there are thousands of green camps on Qiongzhou Island, as well as Wu Qijue, a veteran who has participated in the attack.

But that's it, Qiongzhou Island was completely lost within half a month.

What a speed, which can annihilate the Qing army's green battalion on the island in half a month.

Even the Qiongzhou sailors on the other side of the strait were not spared.

"Found it, found it." Suddenly. Li Shizhen, the governor of Guangzhou, ran into the hall out of breath.

"Brother Yi Ke, what did you find? Could it be that the identity of this pirate who captured Haiqiong Island has been found out?" Wu Xingzuo asked.

Li Shizhen hurriedly took a sip of tea, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"Could it really be Yang Yandi from Guangnan?" Bayindari asked.

"Not bad." Li Shizhen nodded, and then said.

"He's just one of them, though."

"Have you ever remembered Shi Lang's attack on Taiwan?" Li Shizhen said.

The two looked at each other, then nodded.

"This Haikou entrenched on Qiong Island is Xiao Wu and others who defected south from Taiwan at the beginning." Li Shizhen said loudly.

As soon as he said this, Wu Xingzuo, Bai Yin Dali's face suddenly changed.

"Li Shizhen, what you said is true?" Bayindari asked incredulously.

Li Shizhen nodded, and there was still a trace of disbelief on his face.

"At the beginning of the Dongning Rebellion, this Xiao Wu left Taiwan for Luzon with a fleet of more than 1,000 people."

"Later, I heard from the merchants in the Liangguang area that this Xiao Wu led the Ming people to fight the red-haired ghost on Luzon Island to the death, and he really let him gain a foothold on the island." Wu Xingzuo said with emotion.

"Yes, it was Xiao Wu who led the troops to occupy Qiong Island this time." Li Shizhen sighed and said.

Who would have thought that the Qing court inadvertently let go of a small fish.

In just a few years, it has become a giant whale that can swallow Qiong Island.

"This is to blame Shi Lang, wait for me to write a letter to reprimand Shi Lang." Wu Xingzuo said coldly.

Bai Yindari was quite calm, and it was useless to blame anyone at the moment.

Now what I want to think about is how to recover Qiongdao safe and sound.

"How many thieves are there on the island? How many ships are there for the sailors?" Bai Yin Dali looked at Li Shizhen.

Li Shizhen also made a difficulty, in such a short period of time, he can know the plate

The rebel general of the Zheng army led by Xiao Wu on the island is already very remarkable, how do you know how many rebels and warships there are on the island?

Baiyin Dali didn't ask any more questions, he knew that he was abrupt.

As a general of Guangzhou, he can't even find out, where does a governor know.

"If it is really the Zheng family rebels who could not escape Luzon back then, then the problem is serious." Wu Xingzuo, the governor of Liangguang, looked more and more ugly at the moment.

"Not bad." Bayindari nodded.

"According to Shi Lang's war report, there were more than 1,500 Zheng rebels who fled south, and when Chen Shangchuan and Yang Yandi led pirates to flee south to Guangnan, there were also 3,000 people."

"What's more, they have been developing in the South Seas for several years, and I am afraid that there are no less than 10,000 troops." Baiyin Dali also gasped, he finally understood why the Qing army green battalion soldiers from the island were so vulnerable.

If it was really tens of thousands of thieves who landed on the island, then Wu Qijue really couldn't resist it.

"So two adults, how should I defend Guangdong now?"

"This thief army has already begun to attack Leizhou." Guangzhou Governor Li Shizhen hurriedly said.

Baiyin Dari was silent, and Wu Xingzuo was also pacing and thinking.

"In my opinion, instead of waiting for the pirates to attack, it is better to gather all the coastal defense forces in the area of Guangzhou, and the naval warships will attack together to completely defeat the thief army near the Qiongzhou Strait." Wu Xingzuo gritted his teeth and spoke.

Bai Yin Dali did not object this time, and after listening to Wu Xingzuo's proposal, he also nodded.

"In this way, we will gather the naval warships in the area of Guangzhou Bay, gather all battalions of soldiers and horses, and be ready to land on Qiongdao at any time." Baiyindar arrived.

"How long will it take for those two adults? How much silver taels do you need, and how much grain and grass do you need?" After hearing that the two wanted to send troops, Li Shizhen, the governor of Guangdong, hurriedly said.

As the so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass go first.

If there are really tens of thousands of thieves on Qiong Island, then the green battalion here in Guangdong will have to mobilize at least tens of thousands of troops, so the heavy grain and grass needed by these tens of thousands of troops and the snowflakes and silver to reward the soldiers will have to be supervised by the governor of Guangzhou.

"Brother Yi Ke, I'm afraid it will take half a month for us to wait for the Guangzhou Navy Division and the Green Battalion to assemble, and the battle on Qiongdao may take several months." Wu Xingzuo thought for a moment.

"Please also ask the governor to prepare stone rations, as well as 200,000 taels of silver in the treasury during the war." Wu Xingzuo said.

Hearing this, Li Shizhen gasped, but his brows furrowed.

With so many military rations and silver taels, where will he, the governor of Guangzhou, go?

However, looking at the eyes of the two adults, Li Shizhen finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

Just when the two Guangxi sides were preparing to gather troops to exterminate the thief army on Qiongzhou Island.

On the Qiongdao side, the Ming army was in full swing to strengthen the coastal batteries.

In the direction of Chengmai, Xiao Wu looked at the fort that was in full swing in the distance.

If you want to say that there are coastal defense batteries in the north of Qiong Island, there are indeed a lot.

Thanks to Deng Yao, Yang Yandi and other famous generals who resisted the Qing Dynasty at sea, the Qing army deployed a large number of coastal defense batteries in the north of Qiongdao.

Yang Yandi, who was active in the Qinzhou Bay area, sent troops to attack Qiongzhou many times, but they were all repelled by the Qing army's coastal defense batteries and the green battalion.

It's a pity that this time the Ming army landed from Yazhou in the south, and it was a land battle along the way.

From Changhua all the way to Lingao and Chengmai, so these Qing army batteries with muzzles facing the coast are naturally useless.

After the Qing army was completely annihilated under the city of Changhua, the green battalion soldiers of these coastal forts also scattered and fled.

Surrendered the forts to the Ming army.

Although the quality of the artillery on these forts is uneven, there are some in the pre-Ming period, and some are still in the gratifying period, the number is considerable, so it was used by the Ming army in large quantities.
