As the saying goes, God has unpredictable circumstances, and people have misfortunes and fortunes.
However, the current sudden change has brought good news to Qi Yu.
Let’s listen to the detailed explanation.
According to Master Qi's original plan, after taking over the rule of Nan'an, he promoted Haitao to be a garrison and guarded the place all year round. And he led the navy back to Qiongzhou to handle the next urgent government affairs.
However, this sudden northwest wind changed his original plan.
Plans are not as fast as changes?
Well, so be it.
The reason why it is called good news mainly means that Qi Yu can take advantage of the current trend.
Where to take advantage of the situation?
——Luzon.
At present, Annan has successfully surrendered, and there is no trouble. In this way, no one with ulterior motives can sleep peacefully beside the couch on Qiongzhou Island. Now that the situation has been decided, we should immediately go south to support Duan Zicheng in the Southern Expedition.
You must know that the war in the Luzon Sea is the core of the success or failure of the entire overall situation. It must not be underestimated, and you can help if you can.
Under normal circumstances, it would take a month to get from Annan to Luzon. But now, there is a sudden northwest wind to help, which is another possibility.
According to Qi Yu's estimation, with the help of wind direction and force, HNA's speed can be increased by at least half. Even if this strong wind only lasted for seven or eight days, it was enough to drive the fleet more than half of its voyage.
If this is the case, it is possible for him to catch up with the battle over there and then contribute.
Since we have such a good opportunity, how can we throw it away?
Go with the flow!
Therefore, Qi Yu decisively changed his original plan, leaving Haitao to guard here while he sent troops to Luzon.
Since time was tight and should not be wasted, after making general arrangements, Mr. Qi decided to immediately command his troops and set sail south.
Before leaving, he patted Haitao's shoulder solemnly and warned: "I will leave the defense of Annan to you. I hope you can fulfill your duties, live up to my trust, and do your best to protect it." This is a hard-won territory.”
Hai Tao raised his chest and clasped his fists and said, "Sir, please rest assured. If Annan makes any mistakes, I will come to see you!"
"good!"
"..."
In addition to the above

In addition to military arrangements, Qi Yu also sent two official documents to Qiongzhou.
One of them was written to Peng Wenchang, asking him to do a good job in the defense of Qiongzhou and not to relax at all. Only in this way can he relax and go to war with the French army.
The second letter was written to the chief envoy Yu Hai. Qi Yu asked him to arrange the appointment of officials in Annan as soon as possible. In addition, a certain degree of resource tilt must be made to create opportunities for the prosperity and development of this place.
Everything is in order, and we can finally set sail with confidence.
Following Master Qi's order, the warships under his command raised their sails at the same time, and then galloped towards the southeast.
…
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
Let's talk about the Qiongzhou Southern Expeditionary Army, which was resting in Luzon. After more than ten days of "careful rehearsal", they chose to take the initiative to go to war.
As for the tactical level, it was carried out completely in accordance with the previously agreed plan of dividing the troops into two groups.
Duan Zicheng led the main force of the army to engage in battle with the enemy from the front.
However, this first confrontation was just a tentative attack, and they did not roll up their sleeves and fight for their lives.
Just like this, you and I went back and forth and explored each other for a few rounds. After that, the cunning Duan Zicheng started to try to use his tactics.
The Franco Army gradually discovered that the enemy's commander seemed to be incapable of dispatching, and their warships' advance, retreat, and evasion were slower than their own. It gives the impression that it has too much momentum but not enough flexibility.
In this case, why not hit him with a big impact with flexibility?
Sure enough, under a big impact, the Qiong Army's formation was thrown into confusion, and there was even a low-level mistake such as the helmsman turning in the opposite direction.
Hey! The opportunity has come!
Strike while the iron is hot, I'll do it again!
Subsequently, the chaos in Qiongjun increased a bit.
I'll do it again, I'll do it again!
drink!
Qiong's army was actually beaten to a pulp!
I thought they were some kind of elite teacher, but now I see that they are just a bunch of rabble.
Slowly, the Qiong army showed an attitude of not wanting to fight. They fought and retreated, heading back in the direction they came from.
Now that the enemy's morale has been dampened, is there any reason not to make persistent efforts?
then
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, the Franco Army launched a powerful pursuit to seize the victory. Every time they took a step forward, the Qiongzhou Army took a step back, which seemed to be very rhythmic.
At this moment, the ambush troops led by Qi Xiaotong began to move.
Their mission is to take advantage of Duan Zicheng's opportunity to attract the main force of the Franco machine, directly attack the dock behind the enemy, and fundamentally destroy their foothold in the Nanyang domain.
There is a saying in "Zuo Zhuan": If the skin is not preserved, the hair will not be attached.
In other words, as long as you can grind the skin down, the hair attached to it will naturally fall off.
The enemy's dock is this skin. Once it is destroyed, the battleships will become floating rootless trees, and it will be difficult to obtain timely and effective supplies.
Xiaotong's strategy was to imitate his father and carry out a surprise attack in a cold and sudden way to hurt the enemy's foundation.
She is very confident about this.
"Miss, please proceed three miles further and we will arrive at the dock base of the French people."
"Yeah! I know!"
At this time, Qi Xiaotong, who was standing pretty at the bow of the ship, suddenly turned around. After licking his hair at the temples, he curled up his lips and said: "After landing, we will not kill the enemy, but do our best to destroy it. What? We have facilities, food, grass, and ammunition. You should burn what should be burned, smash what should be smashed, and be sure not to leave behind good things that can be used. Do you hear this clearly?"
The subordinate soldiers quickly clasped their fists and responded, "You heard what the eldest lady said clearly!"
Xiaotong nodded with satisfaction and said: "Okay, let's set off immediately, raise the sail to the top, and approach at full speed!"
"yes!"
After giving the order, Xiaotong took out the telescope and began to watch every move on the shore.
From the footage, we can see that the Franco Army's camp is quite large. According to visual inspection, it is about a mile in length, which can be said to be quite expensive.
However, there are not many people stationed here, only two to three hundred people.
It seems that it is easily accessible here.
Well, I’ve got him!
Just when Qi Xiaotong was complacent, something unexpected happened.
However, they saw that the two sentries on the tall sentry posts seemed to have discovered their own attack. After whispering to each other, they began to take action.
It looked like he was trying to sound an alarm.
