The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

From the time the Ming army artillery began to bombard Chican City to the time when the infantry invaded the city, it only took more than ten minutes.

Xiao Wu was shocked by such a fast offensive efficiency.

In just a few years, the Ming army has developed to such an extent!

There is also that kind of extremely light, fast-firing, and extremely powerful artillery. If he had owned this kind of artillery back then, he would have been confident that he could kill the old thief Shi Lang in Penghu!

Just when Xiao Wu was still thinking about it, Zhu Heyu's command sounded in his ears.

"General Xiao, Dong'anfang is not far from this city. The sound of guns and artillery here will definitely alert the Tatars. In order to avoid catching rabbits in the mountains in the future, I order you to immediately bring your brothers and a cavalry regiment to make a surprise attack. Dong'anfang, catch all the Qing officials there, live or die!"

"It's Your Majesty!"

Xiao Wu withdrew his mind and followed the order.

Compared with the Qing garrison in Taiwan, Zhu Heyi can definitely be regarded as having more soldiers and generals now.

Today, in the entire Taiwan, the Manqing troops only have two battalions of more than 2000 people. Even if the number of police officers is included, the number will not exceed 3000, and the army troops he has in hand already exceed 3.

Even if he fights 10 against 1, there is still something left, not to mention that the weapons and equipment still have a crushing advantage, so dividing the troops is no pressure for him!

Just as Xiao Wu was leading a cavalry regiment towards Dong'anfang, a group of Qing cavalry rushed out from the west gate of Chican City and fled to the Anping Military Uniform Bureau.

That was none other than Bachtan, the commander-in-chief of the Chihan City.

"His Majesty."

Li Zhenhua, who had been following Zhu Heyi, looked at Emperor Zhu with questioning eyes.

"Our cavalry can't catch up with them, just let the artillery send them off." Zhu Heyi said calmly.

This group of people had no choice but to escape to the Anping Military Uniform Bureau. Although there were high walls and strong forts there, the geographical location surrounded by the sea made it clear that it was a place of death.

As long as the Ming army blocks the Taijiang River and cuts off its supplies, it can be surrounded and killed even if it does not attack.

As for escaping to Penghu by boat?

Then I can only wish them good luck and hope that Xie Xingsheng is in a good mood and can spare their lives.

Speaking of Xie Xingsheng, at this time all 32 warships of the Ming Royal Navy led by him had arrived in the waters south of Hujing Island in Penghu.

"Sir! Two small bird ships of the Qing army were discovered in the northwest direction!"

On the flagship Luzon, suddenly a lookout soldier pointed to the northwest and shouted.

"Let the Ranger catch up immediately and knock out these two flies."

Upon hearing this, Xie Xingsheng immediately ordered in a deep voice.

According to information provided by Jinyiwei, the Qing navy stationed in Penghu was affiliated with the Fujian Navy. It had more than 100 large and small warships and was commanded by Commander-in-Chief Lu Wende.

If there were so many ships fighting in the open sea, and the Qing army was defeated and wanted to escape, the Ming Royal Navy really couldn't keep them all.

Therefore, Xie Xingsheng planned to make a surprise attack and block the Qing navy in the port to kill them.

In this way, in order to prevent the news from leaking, the two small bird boats in front of us naturally cannot be let go.

After receiving the order, thick smoke billowed from the middle chimney of the Ranger located at the forefront of the fleet and began to accelerate towards the Qing bird ship.

The two Qing bird ships in the distance also quickly discovered the Ranger rushing towards them.

There was no way, in this age of sails as power, the black smoke the Ranger was spewing was too conspicuous.

However, the Qing sailors on the two bird ships did not realize the danger at this time.

"What happened to that ship? Is it on fire?"

Some Qing officers and soldiers pointed to the Ranger with billowing black smoke in the distance and said with curiosity.

"That should be the case. It seems like you are planning to ask us for help?"

Because the Ranger was heading towards them again with billowing black smoke, the Qing troops on the bird boat subconsciously thought that this was coming to ask for help from them.

"Then are we going to help them?"

"Help them? Of course I have to help! I just want to help them die happily!"

"Tell the brothers that when the ship approaches later, everyone will rush up to me, kill everyone on board, and bring me all the valuable things. These red-haired ghosts are very rich!"

A Qing army officer grinned with yellow teeth and looked at the "burning merchant ship" with a ferocious expression and said.

These people were originally Shi Lang's men, and Shi Lang was a pirate!

Although they had taken on the official guise of the Ming Navy and the Qing Navy, they had not forgotten their original profession of pirates.

Now, after finally catching such an opportunity to make a fortune, they naturally would not give up.

What's more, if the ship was burned down and everyone was killed, who would know that they had done this?

On the bow of the Ranger, Captain Jia Wenxuan saw that the two Qing bird ships not only did not run away, but instead sailed towards them, a smile appeared on his lips.

He had roughly guessed what the two Qing bird ships wanted to do. In this case, he naturally had to cooperate well.

He turned around and ordered: "First lower the general's flag, replace it with the Spanish flag, close the muzzle, and when we get closer, we will give these Qing troops a surprise."

There is actually not much difference in ship layout between cruisers and merchant ships in the current era. It is also common for warships to disguise themselves as merchant ships and carry out attacks.

Although the Ranger is obviously different from other cruisers, there is still no problem in bluffing these Qing troops by pretending to be a merchant ship.

As the two sides got closer, the Qing army on the bird ship also discovered something unusual.

"Sir, something seems wrong. This red-haired ghost's boat is too fast! I have been floating on the sea for so many years, and I have never seen a boat running so fast! And there is only smoke but no fire, so be careful There is a fraud!" You Qingjun reminded.

After being reminded, the face of the Qing army officer who planned to play the role of a pirate again became much more solemn.

But the distance between the two sides was already so close, and he was unwilling to step forward to figure out the situation.

"Tell brothers, get your cannons and guns ready. If there's any fraud, shoot him!"

Unlike other Qing armies, Shi Lang's naval fleet was equipped with firecrackers.

Moreover, this small bird ship is also equipped with 10 cannons, and each ship has more than [-] soldiers. If it is to deal with merchant ships, it is still quite a deterrent.

Soon, the distance between the two sides was less than 100 yards.

Many Qing sailors on the bird boat looked at the red-haired ghost merchant ship so close to them, and their hearts beat.

It's too big!

The Ranger was 72.8 meters long, while the Qing army's small bird ship was 23 meters long!

This small bird ship is like an undergrown doll in front of the Ranger.

"No! Sir, this ship is not on fire! The black smoke comes from the chimney in the middle."

Someone suddenly pointed at the Ranger and exclaimed.

Just as the Qing soldier exclaimed, gun doors suddenly opened on both sides of the "Red-haired Ghost Merchant Ship" opposite, and rows of artillery were pushed out.

At the same time, the original Spanish flag on the mast was also lowered, and a clear dragon flag was raised.

"Bright?"

"Ming Army!!"

"Boom boom boom..."
