Daming pirates

Yu Xiaotian did not personally meet the captured Waite, but ordered that all the prisoners be temporarily detained in the prisoner camp, and the captured Dutch warships were temporarily towed to Tamsui Boathouse to await further repairs.

Even he himself did not expect that in this battle, he actually wiped out the entire Dutch fleet, not even a single Dutch warship was spared, and captured five of the warships, including the largest warship on which Waite sat.

One of the other two warships was sunk in the Tamsui River, and the other was on the battlefield outside the mouth of the Tamsui River. Because the ammunition compartment in the hull was hit, a large amount of ammunition exploded, and it was completely blown up on the spot and sank.

In deep water, there is no possibility of salvage and repair.

In this battle, Sea Wolf also lost seven ships below the No. 2 Fortune Ship. The remaining ships were each damaged, and more than 200 naval personnel were injured or killed. However, for such losses, Sea Wolf can still bear it.

It won't hurt the sea wolf.

The reason why he didn't pay attention to the Dutch Commander Waite was because he had more important things to do. He had been awake almost all night these days, paying attention to the situation in the Taiwan Strait and constantly analyzing the enemy.

square situation.

It turned out that he did not expect that Waite would be so bold and dare to lead his Dutch fleet to directly attack Tamsui City without the cooperation of official and military warships. Fortunately, he left some personnel on Nanri Island.

The movement of the Dutch fleet was discovered in time, and the flying speedboat on the sea also discovered the Dutch's plan in time, and notified him immediately using a carrier pigeon.

After Yu Xiaotian learned about this situation, he adjusted his strategic deployment in time, mobilized elite forces from the three major fleets of the navy, and arranged such a paradise for the Dutch in the Tamsui River mouth area.

It turned out that he had a headache on how to deal with the Dutch fleet. With his current naval strength, it would not be a big problem if he dealt with the Dutch fleet alone.

But the problem is that after the Dutch fleet arrived at Yongningwei, it has been with the official fleet, so that he and his men were afraid to act rashly.

Because although the Dutch fleet has weaknesses, once they obtain the cooperation of the navy, they will have to pay a lot of losses if they want to annihilate them. At the same time, they may not be able to achieve full success in one battle, and may even cause them to

Strategic failure.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian has been waiting for the opportunity, hoping to wait for the Dutch to act alone before finding a way to kill them. However, he did not expect that Waite would be so arrogant that he would lead the army without the cooperation of the army, navy and navy.

His fleet went straight to Tamsui City, Sea Wolf's home base on Taiwan Island, trying to kill Sea Wolf's heart.

Things will be much easier to handle now. What Yu Xiaotian is afraid of is that he won't come. Now that Waite actually does this, it is tantamount to asking for death.

The reason why he issued the order not to allow the artillery forts at the mouth of the Tamsui River to block the Dutch fleet trying to invade Tamsui City was to paralyze Waite and make Waite and his Dutch officers think that the main force of the Sea Wolf was not in Tamsui City.

They can have the opportunity to bombard Tamsui City, causing huge losses to Sea Wolf, forcing Sea Wolf to finally compromise with them.

Waite was really fooled, and he rashly divided his troops and sent three warships into the Tamsui River. Once they entered the Tamsui River, it would be difficult to get out.

In order to protect Tamsui City, Sea Wolf has already arranged several iron ropes to block the river, and heavy artillery forts have been deployed on both sides of the river. No matter who dares to break into Tamsui River, there will be nothing but death.

There is no other possibility.

It would be better if Waite didn't divide his troops. Even if the sea wolves surrounded them outside the mouth of the Tamsui River, it would be difficult to eat them in one bite. But Waite, this guy, is really arrogant to the extreme, and he actually continued

He made an unforgivable mistake, which ultimately led to his fleet being completely destroyed by the Sea Wolf.

But now Yu Xiaotian is not in the mood to celebrate, because killing the Dutch fleet is just the beginning of this battle for him. He has more things to do next and has no time to prepare for this great victory.

What kind of celebrations are there, and there is no time to appreciate the faces of these Dutch losers.

Therefore, as soon as the Tamsui River War ended, he immediately ordered the fleet to prepare for sailing. The severely damaged ships were left for repairs, while the slightly damaged ships were simply repaired during the voyage.

Sea Wolf's main fleet assembled in the eastern waters of Nanri Island to begin the second phase of the operation to recapture Nanri Island.

Before that, the biggest trouble for the Sea Wolf to regain Nanri Island was the Dutch fleet. If the Dutch fleet did not leave Nanri Island, even if the Sea Wolf gathered all its maritime strength, it would not be easy to easily solve the naval battle.

The division, generals and troops were completely blocked on Nanri Island, shutting the door and beating the dogs.

But now that the threat of the Dutch has been removed, then the navy of the navy will not be a problem. Although on the surface it seems that the navy of the navy is not weak, it depends on who they compete with. Now if we let them compete with the navy

Compared with Wolf's fleet, the navy of the navy was nothing, so Yu Xiaotian decided to start the second phase of combat operations to completely recapture Nanri Island and shut down the navy on Nanri Island.

So early the next morning after the Sea Wolf ended the Battle of Tamsui River, the Sea Wolf fleet assembled in Tamsui City began to take action again, led by the Clipper Feizi, with two captured Spanish warships in the center, and several more

The heavily refitted Daifuku ship served as the mate and began to sail towards Nanri Island.

Nothing happened during the voyage. It was winter at this time and the sea was not very rough, which was perfect for Sea Wolf to conduct large-scale maritime operations.

So after just one day of sailing, Yu Xiaotian personally led the fleet to the eastern waters of Nanri Island and joined other ships that had arrived in advance.

It can be said that the Sea Wolf came out in full force this time, concentrating almost all the combat power of the navy, and assembled more than 170 warships of various types, including some large sand ships in the merchant fleet.

A battalion of marines was loaded to cooperate with the fleet's subsequent landing operations.

Just when Yu Zigao thought he could achieve victory, the Sea Wolf fleet suddenly appeared near Nanri Island. The navy of the navy also deployed some patrol ships around Nanri Island. After the Sea Wolf fleet sailed towards Nanri Island,

When they arrived, they discovered the Sea Wolf fleet. When they saw over a hundred ships flying the Sea Wolf war flags beginning to gather in the waters east of Nanri Island, the officers and soldiers on the sentry ship were immediately frightened.

Liver and gallbladder split.

The sentry boats of the officers and soldiers were like bereaved dogs. They were panicking, firing smoke, firing off rockets, and using all the means to call the police. They fled toward Nanri Island with their tails between their legs.

On the sea surface, a series of flying speedboats appeared. Under the operation of the Sea Wolf tribe, the graceful hulls rode the wind and waves on the sea, drawing a white track after another, and rushed towards the officers and soldiers.

’s sentry ship.

The speed of these Feizhihao clippers is their trump card. Their speed is more than twice that of normal Chinese sailing ships. They are very suitable for maritime pursuit battles. In addition, their strong firepower can completely suppress the firepower of enemy ships and deal with these light officers and soldiers.

The naval sentry ship is even more easily captured.

Before several official and military sentry boats had time to escape back to Nanri Island, they were blocked by them. After a few cannon fire, these several official and military sentry boats were immediately destroyed and surrendered.

However, these official and military sentry ships still provided Yu Zigao with early warning.

After hearing the report from the soldiers, Yu Zigao, who was discussing matters with his staff in the commander's tent, trembled with his hands, immediately dropped the tea bowl in his hand to the ground, stood up, and asked in surprise: "You

What are you talking about? The sentry ship discovered that a large number of sea wolf warships were heading towards Nanri Island?"

The soldier's face was very ugly, and he quickly knelt down and replied: "Commander Qi! The smoke rising one after another on the east side of Nanri Island is the news sent back by the sentinel ship. It must have discovered that a large number of enemy ships are approaching, and

We have heard the sound of cannons coming from the sea! Please make arrangements early, Commander!"

Yu Zigao listened carefully, and then he faintly heard the sound of cannons far away. He did not dare to neglect any more, and immediately shouted an order: "Send the order to the navy, immediately lift anchor and set sail to sea."

Prepare for war!"

The original harmonious atmosphere in the big tent suddenly disappeared after hearing the report from the soldiers. Everyone immediately became nervous. Some even started to feel scared. Some even said: "Hasn't the Sea Wolf Thief already been there?"

You abandoned Nanri Island, why are you back now?"

Yu Zigao was feeling nervous and angry at the same time. He shook his head and said, "Why are you talking about this at this time? I have long felt that this thief would not abandon Nanri Island so easily, and he would definitely not give up.

Yes! As expected, he is still determined to be evil and wants to come and demonstrate against me!

In this case, I will let him go! I want to see what the thief is capable of, and whether he can get back Nanri Island? My general ordered everyone to start preparing for war, and the army division immediately rushed to the shore.

To prevent thieves from landing on the island!"

Nanri Island, which had been gradually calming down, suddenly jumped up again after hearing the sound of cannons coming from the sea east of the island. A large number of officers and soldiers immediately took action and rushed towards the seaside.

The naval officers and soldiers who were originally resting on the shore did not dare to neglect. Amidst the shouts and curses of the generals, they quickly began to board the ship.

The navy warships docked at several anchorages on Nanri Island did not dare to neglect at this time. After receiving Yu Zigao's general order, they all began to pull up their anchors and raise their sails, and one by one they began to move.

Heading towards the sea.
