Daming: Stealing Chen Yuanyuan at the beginning

Chapter 238 Narcissus swims in the mirror and bombards Jinmen
After Shi Lang occupied Kinmen Island as the vanguard general of the Zheng Group, he changed his strategy, focused on defense, and built forts on the island.

"The Ming army managed Xiamen, and we have no hope of going ashore to compete for supremacy. Kinmen Island is close to the land, far away from the Penghu Islands and Dongfan Island. It can be said to be hanging on the front line of the battlefield alone. It is really difficult to lose Kinmen Island." Shi Lang said to the people around him. The general said.

Walking around the island with the guards, Shi Lang said again: "The construction of the fort needs to be speeded up. This general must not disappoint the young master's high expectations. Although he can't go ashore to fight the Ming army, he still needs to build Jinmen Island into a whole body. The iron hedgehog with long thorns will definitely break Chongzhen's teeth."

Then he turned to the east and asked, "During these days, has General Zeng De supplied food and ammunition on time?"

A general replied: "The first batch of food and ammunition arrived on time, and the second batch will take a few days. General Shi, don't worry, nothing will go wrong."

"Hmph, how can I not be worried? Zeng De is a good flatterer, but he is a good-for-nothing leader in battle. The brothers on Jinmen Island all rely on him to supply food. If he loses his mind, we will be in danger."

Shi Lang knew Zeng De too well, so he was very worried, not afraid of ten thousand but just in case, he even had a bad premonition that something bad would happen to Zeng De sooner or later.

It's a pity that Zheng Sen attached great importance to Zeng De, and sending him to serve as Shi Lang's lieutenant general, and stationed in the Penghu Islands with a higher strategic position, was equivalent to holding Shi Lang's veins.Whether there is any intention to guard against Shi Lang, Shi Lang didn't say anything, but he couldn't help thinking about it.

A general came to report suddenly: "General Shi, the ships patrolling the sea have spotted the navy of the Ming army!"

"Quick, get ready to meet the enemy!" Shi Lang shouted.

But this battle did not start. It turned out that the navy of the Ming army led by Huang Degong avoided Kinmen Island far away, crossed the strait all the way south, and entered Zhenhaiwei.

Zhenhaiwei is located in the south of Kinmen Island. It is both a sea city and a mountain city. It faces Kinmen Island across Xunjiang Harbor.

Zhenhaiwei surrounds Hongjiang Port, which is a natural safe haven with calm seas and vast sea and sky, which is quite spectacular.The islands of Dongding and Nanding dot the sea, which is really beautiful.

The navy of the Ming army was close at hand, and Shi Lang felt restless. He hurriedly wrote to Zheng Sen and ordered Zeng De to be careful.

What Shi Lang was most worried about was that the naval fleet of the Ming army patrolled the sea, cut off the connection between Kinmen and Penghu, and blocked and intercepted grain transport ships.

"From today onwards, ten warships must be dispatched to patrol every day to escort the food transport ships!" Shi Lang ordered.

On this night, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the moonlight on the sea surface was bright and clear.The moonlight on the island is as bright as water and as bright as day.

After entering winter, I have never seen such a bright moonlight.Taking advantage of the opportunity of the camp tour, Shi Lang stopped to admire the moon, and wanted to recite poems as a counterpoint, but he didn't have much ink in his stomach, so he only remembered a story told by his uncle Shi Fu.

It is said that there is a fairy mountain in the sea, and every night when the moon is bright, there will be immortals traveling.The scene was magnificent, grand, beautiful and magnificent, which left a deep impression on Shi Lang in his childhood, which is also the reason why he likes the sea.

"Hey, how can there be any fairy mountains and immortals on the sea? I'm stunned again!" Shi Lang laughed.

At this time, the quiet and melodious sound of singing and blowing came from afar, corresponding to the slight sound of waves and the soft sea breeze, ethereal like fairy music.

At the same time, the alarm bell sounded, and the soldiers shouted: "There are enemy ships, enemy ships are coming!"

Many warships sailed out of the port and began to meet the enemy.Shi Lang climbed onto a huge rock and looked up. The enemy's situation was unknown, so he had to figure out the situation first.

In the spotless moonlight, dozens of enemy ships were seen parked a few miles away, shadowy like monsters.

"Oh, the enemy is indeed coming!" Shi Lang hurried to the seaside, got on his boat, and personally commanded to meet the enemy.

Unexpectedly, after all the ships sailed out of the port, they stood still, because the enemy's warships were anchored far away, and there was no sign of attacking.

Dozens of enemy warships came in the middle of the night under the moonlight, but did not launch an attack. It was a bit strange.The so-called enemy does not move and I do not move, who knows whether these warships came to lure them, and whether there is an ambush in the deep sea far away?

"Stay vigilant, battleships line up, don't act rashly!" Shi Lang quickly made a deployment.

When Shi Lang's fleet was busy queuing up, a huge warship slowly sailed out from the fleet of the Ming army, but it was a big blessing ship with bright lights.The Dafu boat is full of palace lanterns and colorful silks fluttering in the wind, making it magnificent.

Many musicians sat on the deck, playing the lute and sheng.A few fairy-like women danced lightly. The women held Biluo round fans, and their postures were graceful and graceful. When they danced, they were naturally romantic and affectionate.

Chen Yuanyuan played the zither and sang the song "Grandma's Penghu Bay" recently taught to her by the emperor. The clear singing voice floated into the sky, and the moonlight became brighter; the gentle singing voice floated into the sea, making the waves clearer.

Li Cunming, wearing a dragon robe and wearing a seven-star sword, stood on the bow of the boat and shouted loudly: "Shi Lang, I am swimming in the sea at night, do you want to join in the fun?"

"Emperor Chongzhen!" Shi Lang was taken aback.

"General Shi, can Yaxing board the boat to accompany me to have a drink?" Li Cunming raised his glass from afar.

Before Shi Lang could react, the big blessing boat had already turned around and left.

Li Cunming's laughter was heroic and clear: "It's like a palace with colorful boats. The green fan is ashamed. The narcissus swims in the mirror... Haha, Yan Jidao wrote this song "Huanxi Sand" just for me! Shi Lang, do you understand? What is Merry, and what is Fresh Clothes and Angry Horse?"

"Farewell, please pay attention to General Shi, starting tomorrow, I will bombard Jinmen!"

It wasn't until the Ming army fleet went away and completely disappeared from sight, and only heard the faint sound of singing and blowing, that Shi Lang and the soldiers came back to their senses, as if they were in a dream.

"Oh, why did you forget to fire the cannon just now? That's the emperor's old man, it will save trouble if you kill him with a cannon!" Someone was annoyed.

"Don't post the aftermath, were you asleep at that time?"

"Who knew that Chongzhen was so bold and arrogant, that he didn't take us seriously. Why do I feel like being molested and humiliated?"

"But having said that, I really thought I saw a god just now..."

The soldiers chattered in a hurry, still immersed in the emotion of astonishment and trance.

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Shut up, don't you feel ashamed? Go back to camp!"

At noon the next day, the navy of the Ming army came again. They stopped five miles away and fired violently.

The Hongyi cannons equipped on the warships of the Ming army had a range of six miles, which was comparable to that of the Qing soldiers.Although Shi Lang's army also had a few Hongyi cannons, their range was only four miles, and they couldn't hit the ships of the Ming army.

The Ming army bombarded the island indiscriminately, and the rocks on the island were blown up, and several warships in the port were blown up.

It's really useless to be beaten so passively.Shi Lang hurriedly ordered to go to sea to fight, but when his fleet finally set sail, the navy of the Ming army had already gone away.

In the following days, the Ming Navy used this annoying harassment tactic to bombard Kinmen Island, causing Shi Lang to jump up and down but helpless, and almost vomited blood in anger.

"No, it's too passive and useless to be so passive, and the Ming army must be taught a lesson!" Shi Lang decided to take the initiative to fight.
