However, even Chen Zuyi's last resistance failed to make a difference.

In order to prevent the Ming army from breaking through tonight, Chen Zuyi made a temporary decision and pushed all the fierce fire oil to the front of the mountain road to defend the mountain...... Even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't imagine that the Ming army really descended from the sky like a divine soldier, and suddenly attacked from behind.

In this way, all his arrangements became useless, not to mention, and even had the opposite effect...... The fierce fire oil that was placed near the left side of the mountain road was getting farther and farther away from the rear army that was raided, and Chen Zuyi hurriedly asked people to move the fierce fire oil, but it was already too late.

The Ming army wearing mandarin duck jackets was like a red-hot fire hammer, piercing the pirates' defense line devastatingly. These pirates didn't expect that the Ming army would go around the rear like a divine soldier, and they were caught off guard when they encountered a surprise attack. In addition, their original position was that the pirates were behind, and the Fan people and Nanyang slaves were in front, so as to drive the Fan and the Nanyang people to block the narrow mountain road with their lives.

Now that the Ming army is attacking around the rear, the pirates who never thought that they would face the blade of the Ming army are terrified for a while, where is the heart to drive the Nanyang people who are behind them at this time?

Those pirates no longer cared about the Nanyang people and fans, taking advantage of the panic of the pirates in the back, they scattered one after another. All of a sudden, Chen Zuyi's formation was scattered by these fleeers. As a result, the Ming army advanced more rapidly, and before Chen Zuyi's men could bring fierce fire oil, Chang Mao, who was in the lead, had already killed Chen Zuyi.

Chen Zuyi saw that the situation was not good, so he made a decision immediately, and commanded the left and right to immediately go up, and then ......

He himself was like grease on the soles of his feet...... Slipped.

Slipping away without hesitation, slipping off unexpectedly. Even Chang Mao, who had locked his body to death, was surprised that there was such a decisive person in the world. Obviously, the battle situation has not yet eroded, and the number of people on Chen Zuyi's side is far superior to that of the Ming army...... He only blinked his eyes, and the famous Nanyang giant had disappeared as if out of thin air, and had slipped away without a trace.

Without a leader, this group of South Sea pirates is like a plate of scattered sand. The Ming army effortlessly defeated these originally quite tenacious pirates.

"Your Highness, there is no one to continue to resist." Di Meng, who was in charge of cleaning up the battlefield, reported. "More than 100 pirates were captured by our army, and there are hundreds of Nanyang people and local people."

"The leader of the thieves, Chen Zuyi, is missing, and in addition, the White Lotus Sect bandits in the south seem to have gotten the news...... By the time our army went to clear it, the southern pass was empty. ”

“…… They saw the opportunity quickly, and they all ran away without a trace. Zhu Su said.

"However, after confiscating these fierce fire oils, it is not all for nothing......

Zhu Su kicked a jar of things next to his feet. This thing is what the pirates regard as killer fire oil. When the wax seal of the altar was opened, a pungent smell came to the face...... This is the first time Zhu Su has seen oil in this era.

As one of the main energy sources in later generations, oil has also greatly promoted the technological progress of the Ming Dynasty. It can be handed over to the Baoyuan Bureau, trying to study and refine glycerin, gasoline, valuable petroleum resources, but also to stimulate the ambition of the Ming Dynasty to develop oil production areas, and promote the further development of the Ming Dynasty's policy of expanding its territory.

But that's all for later.

"Chen Zuyi's nest is in Nanyang...... Now that his attempt at Dawan has been shattered, he must want to go to sea and return to his lair to recuperate. ”

"Immediately return to Datu Port and Danjiang Port, and send warships from the two ports to blockade the waters of Dawan and intercept Chen Zuyi's returning ships."

"In addition, send an envoy to visit the tribes of the Dawan people and inform them that Chen Zuyi and the White Lotus Sect drove the local people to be cannon fodder."

"Let them publicly cite a new potbelly king, I am willing to keep the potbelly Antai, the condition is that the potbelly tribes and the potbelly king, to serve my Daming as the suzerain, pay tribute at four o'clock, and never rebel against ......"

Zhu Su ordered one by one to arrange the finishing work of the trip. Originally, those White Lotus Sect bandits may still have the ability to incite many pot-bellied people in the mountains, after all, on the bright side, the Potbelly King was killed by those red-haired Yi people, and their White Lotus Sect killed the red-haired Yi people, which can be regarded as avenging the big-bellied tribes. The tribes of the mountains will not be wary of them.

But now, the White Lotus Sect is mixed with Chen Zuyi, who enslaved and drove the Fanren, and even colluded with Chen Zuyi to drive the Fanren to intercept the Ming army...... Although the pot-bellied tribes are civilized, they are not stupid, and they will trust such a White Lotus Sect that regards their own people as pigs and dogs.

It can be said that the White Lotus Sect's way of life in Dawan has been broken. Between the pot-bellied tribes, there is no longer the slightest chance to turn around.

Apart from following Chen Zuyi to Nanyang, this group of White Lotus bandits had no other way out.

So this Ming army immediately returned along the original route and joined the Dingguo Gongtang who was stationed at the port. Tang He heard what happened to Zhu Su, and at the same time he was a little scared, he was surprised by the gliding wing.

But sophistication and nature will not forget to get down to business. He sent a fleet, and on the basis of Zhu Su's arrangement, he also wrote a letter ordering the coastal guards of Fuzhou and Guangzhou to send sailors together to lay out the sea route from Dawan to Srivijaya like a net of heaven and earth.

He is old, and he has been arranged to garrison the coast, when will he be able to show this kind of work to expand the territory? Don't take this opportunity to capture this Chen Zuyi, and by the way, take Chen Zuyi's nest Three Buddhas in his hands for the Ming Dynasty...... Isn't it in vain that a pie fell from the sky?

Tang He and Zhu Su worked together, and Chen Zuyi fell into bad luck.

Originally, Chen Zuyi led the crowd to Dawan Island, because he was afraid of alarming the Ming army, and he was acting in secret. Later, after negotiating with the White Lotus Sect, he lent some of the warships to Fu Puxin for them to use to attack the Ming army's treasure ships.

Unexpectedly, Fu Puxin's success fell short, and his strategy of betting on all the operations of Dawan also failed...... With a small number of boats, he fled from Dawan in embarrassment, not to mention, and was constantly surrounded and intercepted by the Ming army along the way. Chen Zuyi crisscrossed the South China Sea, and it was the first time he was so embarrassed.

What's even worse is that in the course of a fierce battle with the Guangzhou Naval Division, Chen Zuyi's ship was destroyed by the shooting rod of the officers and soldiers of the Naval Division, and Chen Zuyi was forced to transfer to another ship. The dozens of pirates remaining on board were all fed to the sharks in the sea under the attack of the officers and men of the sailors.

Because of this, among the fleeing fleet, the Nanyang pirates, who should have been able to stabilize the White Lotus Sect, gradually became overstretched.
