"Hahaha, I thought, those red-haired men would be so angry when they saw that war letter!" A general from Dengzhou camp jumped off the warship and laughed.

Someone also said, "The Governor is really, what other tactics are there? If I say, I will just press it up and let them see how powerful our Ming Navy is."

"You don't understand. What the Governor wants is to defeat these red-haired fans in a naval battle, proving that our navy's ability is no worse than theirs!"

Dengzhou Camp withdrew from the chicken cage, and laughter and joy were all the way.

This battle was not only a warning to the Dutch, but also a test. It seemed that they were not as powerful as they imagined.

As he was talking, dozens of boats were docked on the shore in the distance.

However, the navy from Laizhou Camp also came back. Chen Yourong brought people to meet him and asked with a smile: "How is it? Are there any casualties?"

Zhang Pan laughed, "There is a big casualty!"

"As soon as those red-haired warships came to their senses, we ordered them to withdraw directly. Perhaps they were scared and didn't catch up."

"Hmph, catch up? They must have the courage too!" Chen Yourong sneered when he heard this, and then said, "The Governor has been waiting for us in the lobby for a long time. Let's go together."

"Shishen Shen!" Zhang Pan said.

He was promoted by Yuan Keli and had been a general under Chen Yourong's command. When he joined the army, Chen Yourong was already famous in the southeast.

Although he has the same status as him, he has always remembered the friendship he had back then and is willing to be ranked second.

For many years, the two of them have been here.

Chen Yourong didn't say much and walked straight ahead.

When the generals arrived at the lobby, they were frowning when they saw Yuan Keli.

Unlike the governors who ate and drank in the mainland, Yuan Keli really had two tricks. Seeing his expression, for a moment, the voices of the generals and officers of Dengzhou Camp and Laizhou Camp gradually became weaker.

Chen Yourong asked: "Governor General, you should be happy when you win the first battle, but why are you worried?"

Yuan Keli sighed and replied:

"I originally wanted to take the opportunity to test the tactics used by the Red Hair Fleet. Fortunately, they responded to the situation during war, but they were so cautious and did not chase them out of the port."

"Did it be that there were too many ships sent out that scared them?"

Zhang Pan laughed again: "It's really possible!"

"I'll just observe on the deck. The combined warships of our Dengzhou Camp and Laizhou Camp should be more than all the warships of the Red Haired."

"Besides, my strategy of war, I and Shen Shuai also looked at them."

"Oh?" Yuan Keli was excited and said:

"Tell me in detail!"

Zhang Pan did not continue to say that, looking at Chen Yourong, who understood it and said:

"The first reaction of the Governor, the Red-haired Ghost, was not to send warships to pursue us, but to set up guns in the port and fight back with the side."

"The red-haired ghost warship is extremely dense with cannons on the side and is very powerful. If we hadn't retreated quickly, we would have suffered casualties."

After the words came to the ground, Zhang Pancai continued: "Yes, Shen Shuai said it well, and we are in this situation."

Yuan Keli nodded and said, "It seems that the number of carrier-based guns of Fu Ship is far less than that of Red-haired warships. If you fight with the opponent's guns, you may be at a disadvantage."

"Following this situation, the battle between the boarding is extremely useful, and the Fujian Navy is the best example." Chen Yourong was still scared and said:

"From the level of firepower just now, there must be twenty gates on each side of their side guns. In this case, trying to catch the ship is simply asking the soldiers to die."

Zhang Pan also said: "No warship can withstand the volley of twenty scattered cannons at such a close distance, not to mention that the red-haired warships are full of twelve-pound cannons, which is even more powerful."

"How could they place so many twelve-pound cannons on the ship?" Yuan Keli was very curious and murmured:

"The meaning of this governor is to give up the use of small boats directly. Although our Fu Ship ship-borne guns are not as good as the Red-haired warship, we have more ships."

"It's okay to open up and have a shelling attack with the other party!"

"Only use large ships to carry out artillery battles..." Chen Yourong looked shocked and looked at Yuan Keli and said:

"Governor General, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, naval warfare has always been carried out with various ships in cooperation with them, and only large ships are used, and there is no such precedent!"

"Then let's set a precedent for future generations to see." Yuan Keli said: "At this time, no matter how many small boats you go, it will be of little use."

"The opportunity to win is to take advantage of our navy's ship gun advantages and concentrate firepower to fight the red-haired people head-on!"

In the past naval battles of the Ming Dynasty, they often paid attention to the cooperation of multiple ships and coordinated combat, which was the same as the multiple arms on land.

In addition to the main warships, it is also equipped with a large number of sea ships used to transport material reserves, military ships for transporting soldiers, ships for officials to command, and other small and medium-sized warships.

To put it bluntly, the tactics proposed by Yuan Keli this time were only used to use the 362 400-four-quality ships to fight, and no other small boats were used.

This tactic can be said to be an innovation.

Before Yuan Keli, the navy in various places still used old and backward tactics, including Fujian General Yu Zizao, who was the same after this famous general.

There is no doubt that the tactics proposed by Yuan Keli immediately aroused fierce debate among the generals.

Many people are not used to the usual platoon tactics.

However, Yuan Keli has a very high prestige in the army. Under his strong initiative, the Denglai Navy still used this new tactic in this Jilong Naval Battle.

This battle is not only about lifting the blockade of Fujian's coastline, but Yuan Keli has great ambitions.

He wanted to use a battle to completely annihilate the invading Dutch fleet and recover the chicken cage. Although all the lucky ships were used in the decisive battle, the other small and medium-sized warships also had their own functions.

Warships can fight at sea, but cannot recover land on land.

Recovering the chicken cages and destroying the nests of pirates on each island, suitable for placing them to troop ships and other small and medium-sized warships, because they sailed very quickly at sea.

In addition to asking the battalions to prepare to recover Ryukyu and attack pirates, Yuan Keli also sent a document to Zheng Zhilong in Kinmen, asking him to lead the Zheng family fleet to take the lead.

The imperial court recruited the Zheng family fleet not to allow them to develop with peace of mind on their backs. When something really happened, they needed to fight to reduce their casualties.

Yuan Keli could guess Zheng Zhilong’s idea.

During this month, the Dutch made such a fierce move, but they could not see the shadow of the Zheng family fleet at all, which is enough to illustrate some problems.

After receiving the order from Yuan Keli in Kinmen, Zheng Zhilong directly ordered the Zheng family fleet to assemble in Kinmen without saying a word.

This made Zheng Zhihu, who was responsible for the Thousand Houses in Tongshanhai, very confused. The court obviously wanted the Zheng family fleet to consume the Dutch and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

He could see that Zheng Zhilong might not be able to see it.

In fact, Zheng Zhilong is in a very complicated mood now, and he only knows one thing that the Zheng family fleet does not have the strength to compete with the Denglai Navy now.

The development speed of the Denglai Navy in the past three years has greatly exceeded that of his Zheng family fleet.
