Outside the city of Fuzhou.

After hearing the report of the Pinghu battalion, Chen Zuyi directly ordered his subordinates to behead the Japanese and show them to the public, saying that this person was a spy and came to shake the morale of the army.

Subsequently, Chen Zuyi said that he would attack the city tomorrow and vowed to break through Fuzhou City and never die.

After all the leaders left, Chen Zuyi left behind his brother Chen Zuxiao.

"Ah Xiao, I have something important to explain to you."

Chen Zuyi's face was solemn, and in front of Chen Zuxiao, Chen Zuyi finally revealed his true face.

"You immediately lead an army of 10,000 to the port of Fuzhou and intercept all those who dare to land."

"No one shall come near the harbor or go ashore without my orders."

"Especially the people who escaped from the Pinghu camp, we can't let them land, and they will all be detained and dealt with in the future."

Chen Zuxiao was shocked and hurriedly asked:

"Big brother, do you mean that the Pinghu camp has been lost?"

"But just now, you're not..."

Chen Zuyi waved his hand, interrupted Chen Zuxiao's words, and said:

"I just wanted to stabilize the morale of the army."

"Now the Pinghu camp is likely to have been sneak attacked, for today's plan, only by breaking through Fuzhou City and gaining the support of the gentry in the Liangguang region can we continue our great cause."

"If we return to the Pinghu camp at this time, not to mention the strength of the enemy army, we don't know at all."

"Even if I can get the Pinghu camp back, I'm afraid that if I want to invade Fujian again, I don't know how long it will be."

"Daming's reinforcements are likely to arrive soon, if we don't take this opportunity to break through Fuzhou City in one fell swoop, our great cause will not be able to succeed after all."

"It doesn't matter if the Pinghu camp is lost, it was originally the base camp we built to attack the Ming camp."

"Now that Fuzhou is about to be captured, in the future, the base camp of you and me will be the Liangguang region."

"Okay, you go quickly, you must not let the rout of the Pinghu camp approach our army camp and affect the hearts of our army."

Chen Zuxiao also knew how urgent his family's situation was at the moment, so he didn't talk nonsense, gave up his orders, and turned to leave.

After Chen Zuyi's arrangements were completed, he began to personally lead people to patrol the camp.

...

Fuzhou City.

Deng Yu is also leading people to inspect, but Deng Yue is much more miserable.

The armor on his body has been seriously damaged, and the top and bottom are all covered with blood, I don't know if it is Deng Yu's own blood or the blood of the enemy.

On top of the wall, the soldiers of the Ming army all staggered to the ground, and each of them had more or less dark red spots on their bodies, all of which were traces left by blood soaking.

Covered in blood, the soldiers didn't care, and they didn't have the strength to cleanse them, so they just found a random place and fell asleep on the top of the city.

Since the battle, continuous high-intensity battles have made these Ming troops already at the end of their strengths.

All of them are running under high loads, fighting desperately with pirates, throwing their heads and spilling blood, and to this day, almost everyone is injured.

Now, Deng Yu, as the commander of the first army, has to go to the front line in person, fight bloodily, lead the reserves, and go into battle at any time.

There were more than ten people who were stabbed by Deng Yu, which shows the cruelty of the battle.

Deng Yu looked at the soldiers on the head of the city, who were already tired, and knew that these people were exhausted.

Maybe tomorrow, these soldiers under his command will die in this Fuzhou city with him.

As for the people who came to reinforce today, after nightfall, these people, after calming down, disappeared with all their enthusiasm and returned to their homes.

Especially after seeing the tragic situation of the people slaughtered under the city, these people who came to help were even more afraid, and after the night, no one remained in the city.

Deng Yu stood at the head of the city, looking out of the city, thinking about tomorrow's war.

While he was still thinking about it, suddenly a personal guard stepped forward and reported:

"Wei Guogong, we caught a spy in the north of the city."

"He claimed that the Ming army came from the sea, and he did not ask to see Wei Guogong."

"At sea?"

Deng Yu's eyes were puzzled, as a prince of the country, he had never heard that the Ming Dynasty still had troops stationed on the sea.

There are a few sailors, but those sailors are 108,000 miles away from Fujian, how could they appear here?

"Bring it on."

Now that the situation is critical, and the city of Fuzhou is already broken, Deng Yu has no other choice.

If it's really the navy that comes to reinforce it, that's a good thing.

After the spy was brought up, he saw Deng Yu and saluted directly:

"On the order of Xu Dashuai, the Duke of Wei, I came to ask to see Deng Guogong."

When Deng Yu heard this, he couldn't help but be ecstatic in his heart.

Xu Da actually came in person, which means that the reinforcements have indeed arrived, and Deng Yu suddenly has a feeling of being desperate and exhausted at this moment.

But when Deng Yu heard that this man had come from the sea, he asked aloud:

"How do you prove that you are not a spy?"

The man was slightly stunned and said:

"There is a handwritten letter from Xu Dashuai here, please read it to Deng Guogong."

Deng Yu immediately tore open the envelope and watched it carefully.

The handwriting was confirmed, and the tone of his voice was the same as Xu Da's, and Deng Yu was immediately convinced.

"I already know what Wei Guogong means, tomorrow I will act according to the plan, go back to report to Wei Guogong, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Fuzhou will be entrusted to Wei Guogong."

The messenger arched his hand, then turned around and left the city of Fuzhou in the night.

After the messenger left, Deng Yu's originally heavy and desperate mood suddenly became much more cheerful.

I didn't expect the reinforcements from the imperial court to come so quickly, and this time it was Xu Dashuai who personally led the troops, so the people of Fuzhou City would be saved.

Looking up at the stars in the sky, Deng Yu couldn't wait to look up to the sky and howl at this time.

...

The sea outside the city of Fuzhou.

Li Jin and Xu Da had already led their troops to the sea near Fuzhou City.

Yesterday, Xu Da followed Li Jin's advice and did not go straight to Fuzhou, but first went to solve the pirates in the Pinghu Islands.

The location of the Pinghu Islands is very important, as long as this island is taken, the Ming Navy can attack and retreat.

Under Xu Da's plan, the Ming navy struck a sudden blow, and the Japanese on the island did not react at all, and the ships in the port were all destroyed by the Ming army with artillery.

Countless Japanese robbers who were resting on the battleship were killed and drowned on the spot.

Then the Ming Navy began to land, and before landing, the Ming warships launched several artillery bombardments to clean up all the pirates on the coast.

In the end, the Ming navy killed more than 10,000 Japanese pirates, and the rest of them all fled from the back of the port.

The Ming Navy then occupied Pinghu Island, and the Ming Navy almost effortlessly killed more than 10,000 Japanese and seized the strategic Pinghu Island.

Pinghu Island is also an island chain, but the core part is Pinghu Island.

The Ming Dynasty now controls Pinghu Island in his own hands, and that is the real initiative on the battlefield.

Later, Xu Da left 3,000 people to stay on Pinghu Island, and he continued to lead the army and continued to move south, arriving in the waters of Fuzhou.

However, when he arrived here, Xu Da did not advance again, and went to Fuzhou to make peace with Deng Yu.

Because according to the captured captives, there are nearly 100,000 Japanese prisoners under the city of Fuzhou.

Although the soldiers of the Beijing camp under Xu Da and Li Jin fought bravely, Xu Da did not dare to take risks.

After all, with 15,000 people, to attack 100,000 people, the risk of this operation is too great.

Xu Da had his own thoughts, and he immediately sent someone to send a letter to Deng Yu and asked Deng Yu to act according to the plan.

As long as Deng Yu can get the secret letter and act according to the plan, Xu Da will be very sure that Chen Zuyi, the pirate leader who has been a disaster for several years, will be left in Fuzhou City.

Not only Chen Zuyi, but also the 100,000 pirates under his command will also be annihilated by Xu Da, and the sea area will be completely cleared for the southeast of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Jin also knew Xu Da's plan, although he had doubts, but seeing that Xu Da was confident, Li Jin did not say anything more, but quietly waited for the arrival of the second day.
