Su Qi'an was not worried at all about these Fuso warriors who were still stubbornly resisting. It was only a matter of time before they could be killed.
What he was most worried about was not the battle in front of him, but the Zhoushan Island trap mentioned by Sakai Jiro.
Judging from the current situation, if it is true as Sakai Jiro said, the most dangerous people now are not them, but Xie Cang and other troops who have invaded the main island.
Su Qian's brows were furrowed. Wu Dingguo at the side knew clearly what he was thinking, and he opened his mouth to express relief.
"Inspector, I don't think this is necessarily true. It may be Jiro Sakai's lie, deliberately trying to shake the morale of the army. Moreover, even if there are really 10,000 ambushes, we know that the strength of Lingdong Marquis is about the same. If we really have the strength to fight, it won’t be that easy to destroy Lingdong Marquis.”
Su Qian nodded slightly at Wu Dingguo's relief. Even so, they still fell into Jiro Sakai's trap and it was only a matter of time before they captured the main battleship.
But all around, the Fuso Navy was locked in a fierce battle with the Dongzhou Navy. The two sides were fighting fiercely, and no one could evacuate safely. Sakai Jiro's purpose was simple, just to hold them back.
Moreover, we had already issued a death order with these Fuso warriors before, and we must hold back these Dongzhou navy masters at all costs, even if it means death.
The next battle is the real fierce battle. Even if the war is over, no matter who wins, there will be no more support left.
Su Qi'an withdrew his gaze and said in a low voice to Wu Dingguo beside him, "Grand Governor, give the order and prepare to fight to the death with all your strength."
Following Su Qian'an's order, Wu Dingguo understood that the other party would fight to the death at all costs, and similarly, they would fight to the death with all their strength.
No matter what, this Fuso Navy must be defeated and then fully support Xie Cang on the island.
As the navies of both sides fought fiercely in this sea area, the battle on the main battleship was basically the first to end. After suffering nearly three hundred casualties, the remaining Fuso warriors who stubbornly resisted were all wiped out.
After occupying the main battleship, Su Qi'an did not hesitate and immediately ordered the main battleship's artillery weapons to aim at an enemy ship and launch a fierce artillery attack.
Not only that, with the firing of rounds of artillery, the men controlled the main battleship and quickly rammed towards the largest enemy ship among them.
If the opponent wants to hold them back, Su Qian will naturally not do as he wishes and directly confront them head-on and sink the opponent's largest warship. As long as they are annihilated, the morale of the Fuso Navy will be completely destroyed.
The other party is not afraid of death, and the same is true for these suicide squads. They are preparing to start a fierce battle with a mentality of accepting death.
Suddenly, in the distant sea, the sound of charging horns suddenly sounded.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then someone quickly reacted, with a look of joy on their face, and shouted quickly.
"It's our warship! It's our naval force. They are coming to our aid."
Everyone was excited and stared at the hazy fog in the distance.
As time passed, warships sailed out of the fog one after another. Looking at the familiar flags of the warships, Su Qian's tense heart relaxed a little.
There was a little surprise on his face, because this naval fleet that suddenly appeared turned out to be the Yuezhou Navy.
The Yuezhou Navy's total strength is just over 40,000, and only about 30,000 are capable of fighting. Su Qi'an cannot take them all away this time to support Yuezhou, so he must leave some defenses for Yuezhou.
Therefore, only 20,000 people were taken away. Unexpectedly, at such a critical moment, Yuezhou would actually send navy to support them. Judging from the scale and number, they were at least 10,000 people.
After taking away another 10,000 people, the current Yuezhou Navy is estimated to have only a few thousand people left.
Su Qi'an was very surprised when the Yuezhou Navy suddenly appeared for support. These ten thousand people were definitely not the ones he ordered to ask for help.
Although it would be unclear for a while what was going on, but with the subsequent addition of 10,000 Yuezhou Navy troops, the battle fell into a stalemate, and the balance of victory clearly tilted towards them.
Seeing the support from Yuezhou Navy, Su Qi'an didn't even need to give orders. Just now, the main battleship, which had planned to fight the enemy ship to the death, was immediately under the control of his subordinates.
, changed the trajectory.
In the end, the two ships passed each other with a distance of more than ten feet.
Although there was no damage to the two ships, no one missed the opportunity at such a close distance.
The arrow rope was aimed and shot directly at the enemy ship, while the Fuso warriors on the enemy ship counterattacked with arrows and crossbows.
The artillery on both sides of the cabin was aimed at the opponent, and fired several shots at the opponent almost at the same time.
All of a sudden, both warships were hit and suffered varying degrees of damage. There were raging fires on the decks and cabins.
Facing the burning fire, neither the Fuso Samurai nor the suicide squad members had any intention of saving. They only looked at each other.
Everyone screamed, and with the help of arrow ropes, they quickly landed on the other side's warship.
At the same time, the other warships from both sides were also fighting fiercely. Even with the support of Yuezhou Navy, they were at a disadvantage. These Fuso Navy warriors would not retreat until they died. ..
This kind of courage is worthy of encouragement, but in the end it cannot change the battlefield situation. With the addition of 10,000 Yuezhou Navy soldiers.
The remaining Fuso Navy warriors, even though they were brave and tenacious, were at a disadvantage under the bombardment of artillery, and it only took about half an hour.
Of the 20,000 Fuso navy, only a few hundred were left flopping on the sea. None of their warships was intact, and basically all were destroyed.
Facing hundreds of people flopping on the water, Su Qi'an did not kill them all, but captured them as prisoners.
The Fuso Navy is very powerful, but that doesn't mean that everyone is willing to die for their country. They have already lost the battle and cannot reverse the situation.
If they had the opportunity to surrender and save their lives, they would naturally seize it. Under the arrows of several warships and the Japanese pirates flopping on the sea, basically no one dared to be clever. Once there was someone seeking death, the soldiers monitoring the warship would not If there is any courtesy, send them back to the west with one arrow.
On the one hand, it is to save lives, and on the other hand, it is also because their blocking mission has been completed.
It took Su Qi'an and the others a half-hour to end the battle.
In this battle, the 20,000-strong Fuso Navy was basically wiped out. Similarly, the Dongzhou Navy suffered heavy casualties, with less than two to three thousand men able to fight.
If it hadn't been for the sudden rush of 10,000 Yuezhou Navy troops to rescue them, they would probably have suffered more casualties in this battle. Moreover, with a few thousand men in hand, it would be difficult for such a small force to be of great help to Xie Cang and the others.
Su Qi'an left the job of capturing the Japanese pirates to Su Yong and Wu Dingguo, and he immediately arrived on the Yuezhou main battleship that rushed to their aid.
When he got on the boat, he didn't say anything. Looking at the people walking towards him, Su Qian's face showed some surprise.
The person coming towards him was none other than Chief Superintendent Feng Zheng.
Su Qi'an was a little surprised by Feng Zheng's appearance. The relationship between him and Feng Zheng was not very good. The two of them could get along well only because of their interests.
But this time, without request, Feng Zheng actually led 10,000 Yuezhou naval forces to support him. If there was no trick in this, Su Qian would not believe it.
Apart from anything else, even if Feng is a member of the Yuezhou Investigation Team and has the power to take charge of all military and political affairs in Yuezhou, he will never come to the rescue at the risk of draining the Yuezhou Navy's fortune, unless he only...
Su Qi'an was not stupid, thoughts flashed through his mind quickly. Before Feng Zheng could speak, Su Qi'an seemed to have thought of something, and whispered with a bit of strangeness.
"The eunuch led the army to support me. I am very touched and grateful. But if what I expected is true, the eunuch's support must have been ordered by someone. To be more precise, the navy can be mobilized in Yuezhou. There are many men and horses, and the only one who can order you is the King of Yue."
Hearing what Su Qi'an said, Feng Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Qi'an with some appreciation. He did not deny it, with a smile on his face and nodded slightly.
"Haha, the inspector is indeed a smart man. He can guess eight or nine of them just by observing them without us opening his mouth. I admire him."
"Every time the supervisory envoy said that we came to support this time, our family was indeed ordered by His Highness the King of Yue. Dongzhou and Yuezhou are neighboring states. If something happens to one state, the other will be affected.
A state will also be affected, and the king of Yue knows very well the principle of death of lips and teeth. "
"Although the Supervisor did not say anything, His Highness the King of Yue knew that for such a big war, it would be somewhat unsafe to rely on only 20,000 Yuezhou Navy officers and soldiers. For the sake of caution, the King of Yue specifically ordered our family to prepare for such a big war shortly after the Supervisor left. , immediately mobilize 10,000 Yuezhou navy troops to follow closely."
"If nothing happens, our family will not show up, but if something changes, our family will lead the army to attack. Sure enough, all this is just as the King of Yue expected, and our family arrived in time."
Listening to Feng Zheng's somewhat thankful explanation, Su Qi'an didn't say much. He didn't care about Feng Zheng leading his army to support him. He thought more about it.
The relationship between Feng Zheng and the King of Yue is that one is a close minister of His Majesty, and the other is just a second-class prince exiled in a remote state.
I have never heard that there is any relationship between the two, but now, no matter how you look at it, it reveals something unusual.
Feng Zheng could also guess what Su Qian was thinking, and he smiled again. .z.
"Supervisor, don't think too much. There is not much relationship between our family and the King of Yue. Our family still wants to live for a few more years. The reason why we obey the King of Yue is just to get what we need. Just like with the Supervisor, we are driven by interests. That’s all.”
"But there is something that our family can tell the inspector about."
"Perhaps the supervisor has already guessed that our King of Yue is no ordinary person in Yuezhou. Not to mention our investigation team, even if there are more than ten supervisory censors, they will not be able to do anything to this King of Yue."
"When this war is completely over, the King of Yue will find a time to slowly tell you about your doubts. With you here, the war in Dongzhou can basically be settled. This is why His Highness the King of Yue asked our family to tell the supervisory envoy if."
Listening to Feng Zheng's words, Su Qian's eyes flashed. He didn't say more or ask more questions, but just nodded slightly.
Of course he knew how powerful Su Kang was. He had noticed it as early as the last battle in Yuezhou. However, he did not expect that this second-class prince who was not valued highly, a physically disabled sixth prince, would be in Yuezhou. Can have so much energy.
Even if Su Zhe and Su Tai came to Yuezhou in person with this energy, they would not be able to use it even if they were on his territory.
