Under the orders of Wu Dingguo and Su Yong, all the artillery and rockets on the warships of the Dongzhou Naval Division, which changed formation, smashed towards the middle three Fusang Naval Divisions.

Under the indiscriminate bombardment, the three Fuso sailors could not withstand such an attack at all, one was sunk, and two were seriously damaged, unable to fight.

The withdrawal of the three ships tore a gap at once, and when the gap appeared, the attacking Dongzhou Navy Division changed its formation again and met the warships on both sides of Fusang.

The 30,000 land troops that followed closely behind, under Xie Cang's order, rushed towards the gap as fast as possible.

The Fusang sailors who were attacked naturally couldn't watch the thirty big ships led by Xie Cang charge indifferently, and immediately ordered an attack.

Artillery and rockets were also thrown at Xie Cang's warship, and the sound of the explosion was mixed with the surging waves, and soon the warship was hit and the hull of the ship was flooded.

But in the face of such a situation, Xie Cang, who was in the first boat, instead of ordering someone to rescue, gave the order again and rushed in as fast as possible.

Naval warfare is different from land warfare, if the rescue is reversed, not to mention whether it will become the target of the opponent's attack, even if the rescue is achieved in time, it is basically impossible for them to stand out.

Xie Cang's land army had only one goal, to break through with all his strength, no matter how heavy the casualties were, they would desperately break through the resistance of the Fusang Naval Division.

As long as they break through, they will be able to land on the island to fight, give full play to their strength, and force the Japanese on Zhoushan Island to send troops back to help.

In order to increase the speed of the warships, the 30,000 large ships on which the 30,000 land troops were carried were all refitted, and the warships basically did not carry any heavy weapons, and all the artillery and catapults were dismantled.

The ones that could fight back were the halberds and bows that the soldiers carried each, and the outer side of the hull was reinforced in multiple layers in order to resist a few more rounds of attacks.

The renovated ships are all driven by manpower, so in the cabin, the number of people increased from 100 to 500, and the speed was at least doubled.

The indiscriminate bombardment of the Fusang Navy Division did cause Xie Cang's land army to suffer a lot of losses, but at a speed twice as fast as the other party, they broke through under the dense artillery attack.

At the same time, under the Dongzhou Naval Division's efforts to block the warships on both sides, Xie Cang's thirty large ships lost about three, and the rest basically broke out of the encirclement.

Even if the Fusang Navy Division reflexively chased after it, it was indeed inferior in speed, and under several rounds of artillery bombardment, it finally had no choice but to watch the land army led by Xie Cang go away.

Jiro Sakai on the flagship ship looked at this scene, his face was cold, he didn't say a word, and the subordinates around him all asked for an order to pursue.

But looking at the warships that were departing one after another, Jiro Sakai, who was silent for a while, shook his head and rejected his subordinates' proposals.

He said coldly, "Chasing? No matter how you chase it, the other party bursts in with a mortal heart, and we are twice as bad in speed, even if we chase it, it won't help."

"Don't forget, our goal is to defeat the Dongzhou Naval Division, even if the land army of Dongzhou breaks through, with the strength of the island, it will be no problem to stop them."

"But we have defeated the Dongzhou Mariners, and it is not too late to go back to help, and these landlubbers will have to be dumplings long ago."

Sakai Jiro retracted his gaze, looked at the Dongzhou sailor who was fighting fiercely with them in front of him, and said coldly.

"Pass my order, at all costs, to defeat the Dongzhou Sailor for Ben Dang!"

"Fifteen degrees to the port side of the ship, aim at the opponent's flagship and kill it!"

Sakai Jiro's order was issued, and more than 30 warships under his command quickly turned around, and the muzzles and rocket vehicles were all aimed at the Dongzhou Naval Division on the opposite side.

A salvo was fired, and another explosion sounded, and several warships were hit, instantly igniting a fire and filling the air with smoke.

Their own warships were damaged, Wu Dingguo and Su Yong's faces were calm, and this naval battle was a test of the other party's patience.

Even if you fight to the last one, you have to fight it.

Xie Cang's land army had successfully broken through, and although the cost was a bit large, it was worth it.

There are no worries to worry about at the moment, Wu Dingguo and Su Yong can fully command the Dongzhou Navy Division and fight a good fight.

Dongzhou Sailor is the same

The muzzle of the sample gun was turned around, and it was also a salvo at the Fuso Sailors.

On the surface of the sea, the sound of continuous explosions resounded, the smoke filled the air, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

At this time, Xie Cang's troops, who had broken through the Fusang Naval Division, headed towards Zhoushan Island at the fastest speed.

Along the way, they did not encounter any obstacles, almost unimpeded, which made Xie Cang feel strange, he was originally prepared for greater casualties.

He knew that only half of the 40,000 Fusang sailors appeared, and the other half had not moved.

I thought I would ambush them on the way, but as they gradually approached Zhoushan Island, the other half of the sailors didn't even see each other.

After thinking about it, he could probably guess that the reason why the other half of the Fusang Sailor did not appear was mostly to guard against the Yuezhou Sailor.

Su Qi'an went to Yuezhou to ask for help, it is impossible for the other party not to know, in order not to suffer from the enemy, the best way is to arrange the other half of the sailors to block in advance.

After all, Zhoushan Island itself is a natural defensive position, plus there are still 20,000 pirates on the island, even if Xie Cang has 30,000 people in his hands, with various defense lines on the island, it is not so easy to take Zhoushan Island.

This is also the reason why Yamashita is brave and so bold and relieved to transfer the other half of the sailor.

Instead of waiting for the opponent to attack, it is better to ambush in the sea area that appears in advance, since you want to fight, you have to take the initiative to attack, passive consumption, not Yamashita Yong's character.

With the arrival of Xie Cang's army, Zhoushan Island soon learned the news, Yamashita Yong's face was calm, he listened to the report of his subordinates, nodded, and said calmly.

"Hmph, it's really fast, everything is blocked according to the plan of the master, let's go."

Soon, everyone on the island acted instantly, and only Yamashita Yong was left in this cave of deliberation.

After a while, a voice sounded in Yamashita's ears.

"Hehe, I haven't seen you for a year, you are a big boss, you do have a bit of courage, but I tell you, don't capsize in the gutter, if you plant it, Your Highness will not let you go."

"You should know that His Highness has high hopes for this dispatch, so don't let Your Highness down."

Yamashita looked up with a blank face, and in a cave behind him, a figure walked out.

This person is about the same age as Yamashita Yong, with the hairstyle of a Fuso samurai, and a light smile on his face, but his eyes are very sharp, which makes people feel inexplicably afraid.

This person's name is Fujiwara Shinichi, who is the person in charge of the Fuso Naval Division, and he came to reinforce at the order of Showa Incheon.

The Fujiwara Shinichi family, like the Yamashita Isamu family, was one of the nobles in Fuso, and obeyed the orders of Showa and Incheon, and the two families were both working together and competing.

Fujiwara Shinichi and Yamashita Isamu are more familiar with each other, when they were in Fuso before, there was a lot of competition and contradictions between the two sides, and this time he came to support, and he also took the initiative to ask for help, in order to take a good look at his old friend, whether he could complete the mission of Showa Incheon.

Yamashita raised his eyebrows, looked at Fujiwara Shinichi who was sitting next to him, and just snorted coldly at his reminder.

"You don't have to worry about this matter, how to fight this battle has long been approved by His Royal Highness, and you are here, just cooperate obediently, and nothing else needs to be said."

"Don't forget, I'm in charge of this battle, you're just helping, and if something goes wrong because of your negligence, I won't be relentless."

Yamashita Yong's counterattack, Fujiwara Shinichi nodded slightly, still with a smile on his face, and said softly, "Don't worry, in big things, I know how to do it, but you, I heard that you have eaten a few times in the hands of that overseer, if you lose again this time, as your friend, you will definitely leave your whole body in front of Your Highness, and say goodbye."

Fujiwara got up with a smile, didn't even look at Yamashita Yong's indifferent face, and then left.

Although Yamashita Yong's face was expressionless, the palm on the armrest couldn't help but clench.

"Look, Fujiwara Shinichi, I'm going to win this battle, let's see!"

Without ambushes along the way, the army led by Xie Cang quickly approached Zhoushan Island, and within a distance of less than two or three nautical miles, arrows were directed towards them

Shoot at a rapid pace.

Everyone instantly prepared for battle, and when they looked at the sea covered by fog in front of them, they could vaguely see more than a dozen small civilian ships coming towards them.

It seems that there are only a dozen, but Xie Cang knows that this kind of small boat carrying five or six people is only superficially paralyzing them, and underwater, at least hundreds or even thousands of people have already dived underwater. Look at the book

This place is not far from Zhoushan Island, the sea is not deep, and these pirates are all proficient in water, just to raid and scuttle their warships.

This idea was good, but Xie Cang also had a trick to deal with them, and suddenly several small windows opened on both sides of the warship, and countless soldiers kept pouring out a bunch of black liquid from the windows.

The black liquid invaded the sea, did not submerge, but floated on the surface, and immediately after, the warships rushed towards Zhoushan Island at the fastest speed.

Ignoring the sneak attack of the small boat in front of him, it directly collided and crushed As the warship moved, the black liquid floating on the sea surface gathered more and more.

Xie Cang's eyes flickered, and he was silent for a while, and then ordered the arrow to be lit and shot towards the sea.

The arrows of Qi Brush Brush submerged into the sea, and the arrows that were ignited burned the moment they touched the black liquid.

The speed of the whole area was very fast, almost in the range covered by the black liquid, the flames rose, and the warship that was rushing with all its might, because of the weight loss of this black liquid, increased its speed a lot, and accelerated to escape from the ignited sea.

Not long after the sea burned, countless pirates and pirates could be seen diving from the bottom of the sea, wailing and fleeing in all directions.

No matter how good their water is, some of them want to escape from this burning sea by holding their breath on the bottom of the sea, but when they come out, they are still surrounded by fire, and their bodies are stained with black liquid, and they cannot be extinguished by the flames.

The wails resounded endlessly, and Xie Cang did not look back at these pirates and wouldn't look back, and sprinted with all his might.

Since he has made preparations for the invasion, he must have the consciousness of death, although this kind of death is very cruel, and most of them are burned alive, but he will still do it if he gives Xie Cang a chance.

To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself.
