Chapter 239: Going to Tamsui
This time, Xu Xinsu's subordinates came to Dazhan Port. They were ordered by Xu Xinsu to come to Dazhan Port. However, Xu Xinsu is no longer the commander-in-chief of the Fujian army because Xu Xinsu was forced to follow.
When Yu Zigao attacked Nanri Island, he was captured alive by sea wolves during the battle on Nanri Island.
Originally, many people in Sea Wolf proposed to kill Xu Xinsu, but Yu Xiaotian stopped him. Until this time, Xu Xinsu completely regretted it and immediately expressed her willingness to surrender to Xiaotian and serve Yu Xiaotian in the future.
He is also willing to surrender to Yu Xiaotian in everything he does, including his family business and onshore business.
So Yu Xiaotian left Xu Xinsu alive. Now Xu Xinsu has been arranged by Yu Xiaotian to work in the council hall and has become one of Yu Xiaotian's subordinates.
This time he sent his former subordinates to the port of Da Yuan. In fact, Yu Xiaotian deliberately informed the Dutch people of Da Yuan about the general information about the outside world through Xu Xinsu in advance, saving them from being as bored as a gourd and not knowing what was going on with the outside world.
I'm completely confused as to whether I understand or not.
After meeting Xu Xinsu's men, Peter was very excited and quickly asked them about the outside world.
Xu Xinsu's men did not hide anything and told Peter in detail the general situation of the conflict between Sea Wolf and the government.
In addition, they also told Peter shocking news, that is, they heard that the Dutch fleet led by Waite had been completely wiped out by the sea wolves, and it was impossible to return to the main force.
Hearing the news, Peter almost fainted. These days, he has been waiting for Waite's fleet to come and waiting for them to come. In fact, Peter has already made some mental preparations. He has already thought of everything he can think of.
I thought about the worst-case scenario.
He also guessed that Waite might have suffered a defeat in the battle with the Sea Wolf, but he never thought that Waite would be annihilated by the Sea Wolf. He had been guessing that Waite was very likely to
After being defeated by Sea Wolf, he was then pursued by Sea Wolf's fleet, so that he was unable and did not dare to return to the top. He probably fled directly back to Batavia.
As for the round trip from Batavia to Da Yuan, it would take less than half a year, and it would take more than three months at the fastest. It is estimated that the news has not been transmitted yet, or it may not be able to break through the Sea Wolf blockade and reach Da Yuan.
But he never expected that Xu Xinsu's people would bring him such shocking news. Waite's fleet was actually completely annihilated by the Sea Wolf.
Regarding this news, Peter couldn't believe it even to death. He shook his head and said it was impossible. Although Waite might fail, it was simply impossible for the Sea Wolf to kill all the seven large plywood boats he took.
If you can't fight and run, can't you still run?
What's more, they are seven ships, not one ship. As a member of the navy, he is of course very aware of the power of these seven ships. Such seven warships, loaded with artillery, including the sailors on board, can sometimes destroy anything.
If a small country is lost, no matter how powerful the sea wolf is, how can it possibly wipe them all out?
So Peter shook his head repeatedly, refusing to believe that this was true. Regarding Peter's reaction, the people who came to report the news did not explain much. Anyway, the order they received was just to bring the news. Even Xu Xinsu had already thrown himself into the sea.
The boss didn't tell Peter about the wolf.
Next, someone came and told Peter about the Battle of Nanri Island and the Battle of Weitou Bay that Sea Wolf fought in the Fujian area. As for whether Peter believed it or not, he didn't care.
After Peter sent Xu Xinsu's boat away, he returned to his office and sat down on his chair. He didn't say a word for a long time, just sitting on the chair blankly, like a clay sculpture.
, not angry at all.
It wasn't until it was getting dark and the servants came to light the candlestick for him that Peter suddenly started to move. He picked up a piece of letter paper, took out the quill from the ink bottle, leaned on the desk and started writing.
I wrote a letter quickly and eloquently for several pages.
After he finished writing, he read it again, then folded it and put it in an envelope, sealed the envelope with wax, stamped it with his ring on the wax, beckoned the servant to come over, and sent the servant to pick it up.
The captain of the clipper ship in Damuan Port called over.
In the second half of the night, a boat without any lights at all, towed by several rowing boats, quietly sailed out of Taiyuan Port under the cover of night. After leaving the port, the rowing boat took off the
Towing the cable, the sailors on the ship immediately began to hoist the sails. After catching the wind, they immediately began to adjust the course and hurriedly sailed towards the south in the dark night.
After all, it was night, and their actions were not noticed by anyone, including a sea wolf sentinel ship on the nearby sea. They also failed to detect its figure, so they just let him slip out of Damuan Port and sail to the south of Kuangkuang.
Once you enter the wide water area, it is basically impossible to intercept this ship at night.
In February, Taiyuan Port finally welcomed the second ship entering the port. However, this time the ship entering the port was just a sampan. This sampan was suspended from a high road outside the port.
The sea wolf flag was lowered from the big ship, and the sailors on the ship rowed hard and maneuvered the small boat into the port.
The Dutch on duty at the port all saw the small boat, but did not intercept it because the boat obviously did not come to harass Tai Ming Port with hostility. It must have come here as a messenger, so they did not intercept it.
Fire or intercept, and then let the sampan sail into the port.
Not long after, a Dutch speedboat, also under the oars of the sailors, stopped the sampan in the harbor. There was a man on the sampan who spoke fluent Dutch. It turned out that this man was Waite.
When I left the chief officer, I brought a Chinese interpreter with me here. After a short exchange, the interpreter got on the Dutch speedboat. The Sea Wolf sailor immediately paddled the sampan back to the sea.
Peter looked at the letter in his hand. After reading it, he slumped down in the chair again. The letter fell on the table. He held his head with both hands and inserted his fingers into his hair, grabbing it hard.
After a while, he punched the table angrily, startling the attendants in the room and the interpreter who came back to deliver the message.
"Get ready, I want to go to Tamsui City myself!" After punching the table, Peter's inner anger and fear seemed to be vented a lot, and he began to calm down, and he gave instructions to the attendants.
When the attendants followed his instructions and began to go down to prepare, Peter showed a wry smile on his face, leaned softly in the chair again, and muttered in his mouth: "I have a headache! It seems that this time this time the senior official will not be able to stay."
It’s gone! What a pity! It took a lot of effort to gain a foothold in this place. All the efforts over the past few years have been in vain. I wonder how the company’s senior executives will react this time, and whether they will concentrate their forces to fight against this sea wolf again.
How about a fight?"
A few days later, the only medium-sized Galen ship left in Taiyuan Port sailed out of Taiyuan Port. At this time, two Sea Wolf ships immediately sailed towards the Dutch ship and blocked its way.
.
Although the two Sea Wolf ships looked so small in front of this medium-sized Galen ship, when the Dutch now saw these ships flying the Sea Wolf flag, they could no longer get excited.
A little bit of contempt, but on the contrary, I felt chilling and nervous. Even though their ship could easily crush the boats of these sea wolves blocking the way, no one dared to do so.
The Dutch ship immediately slowed down, did not open any gun doors, and made the slightest hostile gesture, allowing the two Sea Wolf ships to approach them, shouting at them and asking them what they were going to do.
A flash of anger flashed in Peter's eyes, but he still suppressed his anger and asked the interpreter on the boat to tell the people on board the two sea wolves the purpose of their trip.
After hearing that this ship was going to Tamsui City and negotiating with their boss, the two Sea Wolf ships did not continue to block it, but ordered the Dutch to follow them and sail to Tamsui City. This was almost like an escort.
But even so, the Dutch did not express any dissatisfaction and honestly agreed to the request of the Sea Wolf tribe. One Sea Wolf ship stayed to continue to monitor Damuan Port, and the other ship accompanied Peter's ship.
, adjusted the course and started sailing to Tamsui City.
Suddenly there was a burst of artillery sound outside the Tamsui River mouth. The Sea Wolf troops in the fort heard the sound and rushed to their respective artillery positions. Under the orders of the officers, they began to nervously operate their cannons. Some people secretly
Cursing, that blind thing actually dares to trouble Sea Wolf, let’s see if I don’t beat him into a scumbag!
But the observer suddenly turned around and shouted to his colleagues in the fort: "Don't reload! It's the Red-haired Man's ship. They are not attacking us, but firing a salute!"
Although the cannons were rumbling outside, the Sea Wolf's cannon fort did not drop a single cannonball, and there was no splash on the sea due to the falling cannonballs. Therefore, the observers immediately judged that the red-haired man's ship was not in the water.
Attack them, but use their etiquette to show their respect to the sea wolves.
So the officer in the fort immediately lifted the battle alert and muttered: "I'm so full that I'm so full! What are you looking at? The boss said that we have to repay the salute and reload it."
Bao, don’t load the shells, let’s fire a few shots too!”
So several forts at the mouth of the river each fired a few salutes. There was no conflict between the two sides. After all, there was a sea wolf patrol boat next to the red-haired man's ship. With it there, it would naturally happen.
No misunderstanding.
Peter's boat did not sail directly into the Tamsui River, but stopped outside the mouth of the Tamsui River. It was obvious that he was a little worried about the safety of his boat, for fear that if it sailed into the Tamsui River, the sea wolves would block the mouth of the river if the talks broke down.
Seize his boat as well. This is the only larger boat he can use at present. The few boats left in Damuan Port are all speedboats and cannot sail to Batavia independently.
If his talks here collapse, the ship will still have a chance to escape back to Batavia. Now the company's strength in the Far East has been weakened a lot because of Waite's failure. It can save a ship.
, it is better to save a ship.
So here, Peter ordered his men on the ship to be more vigilant. If they found out that something was not going well, they should leave him alone and sail directly away from here and flee to Batavia.
He himself took a dozen soldiers and attendants, lowered a rowing boat from the ship, unloaded some boxes from the ship, rowed by manpower, and sailed into the mouth of the Tamsui River, heading towards Tamsui City.
go.
(It’s pretty good. My son recovered relatively quickly this time. He will be discharged from the hospital this afternoon in one week! I’m going to pick my son up now! I want to praise myself. I managed to hold on without interruption this week.
Still keep updating twice a day, it’s rare! Haha!)
