After three days of sailing, the Qing Dynasty Manchu and Han soldiers, who were divided into two generals, were appointed by Ma Futa and Shen Zhixiang, boarded 62 ships from the former Dongjiang Town, and arrived at the Ocean Island in the early morning.

When the fleet was about to reach the Ocean Island, the main general Ma Futa held a thousand-mile mirror and looked at the Ocean Island with a greedy look on his face.

He saw that lattice salt fields had been opened on this ocean island along the coast, and on the flat land on the island, there were many farmlands planted with grouting winter wheat, and wherever they looked, they were all green.

On the steepest peak of the Ocean Island, a square castle with a gray appearance has been built on the top of Shiyan Mountain. It is vaguely seen that soldiers patrol the city walls. This should be the main fort and barracks of Li Xiaojun.

The most conspicuous and attractive thing is that on the side of the Pacific Bay of the Ocean Island, Li Xiaojun built a huge shipyard here. On the wide and flat dock, a large number of workers were assembling several ships with keels with formed keels.

"Fuck! Li Xiao has built this originally remote ocean island well." The main general Ma Futa put down the Qianli Mile Mile Mile, his heart full of envy.

"Hmph, Li Xiao, who is in a dog, will catch you off guard when I go to the island! Let the island you have worked hard to build become a piece of fat in my mouth of Daqing." Ma Futa smiled grimly and felt cruel.

Mafuta, who originally thought this would be a perfect sneak attack, did not expect that when his fleet was about four or five miles away from the Ocean Island, the shrill conch sounded loudly on the island. The workers and farmers who were busy in the shipyard, salt fields and fields threw away their tools, and then turned around and ran to the castle on Shiyan Mountain.

"Fuck, let the Ming people discover it!" Ma Futa was very angry when he saw the sentries who kept blowing conchs and waving flags on a high tower on the coast of Ocean Island from the Qianli Mile Mile.

However, he felt very strange in his heart.

What he was riding now was a ship from Dongjiang Town of the Ming Dynasty, and he was also carrying the banner of the Ming army. In theory, these Li Xiao's troops should be unprepared. Why did they know that they would run away as soon as they saw their fleet arrive?

Ma Futa, full of doubts, immediately called deputy general Shen Zhixiang to ask.

"Master Mafuta, I guess it's because every time I send a fleet to deliver goods to the Ocean Island in Dongjiang Town, there is no such large scale. The island guard's general suddenly saw such a large fleet coming, and he must be suspicious. He ordered all the soldiers and civilians to retreat to the mountaintop castle."

Shen Zhixiang thought about it and reported to Ma Futa about the reason he thought was the most appropriate.

The strong sea breeze blew the newly knotted braids behind Shen Zhixiang's head, and with his flattering expression, he looked like a clown.

Ma Futa glanced at him with contempt, then sighed and said hatefully: "Damn, this master guarding the island is really a guy who is more suspicious than a fox. Li Xiao still has a lot of vision when he chose this person."

Shen Zhixiang quickly asked: "Master, since Li Xiaojun has discovered the traces of our army and is avoiding the fort, what should our army make next?"

Ma Futa's face showed a ferocious look, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph, the monk can't run away, but the temple is not. Since they have huddled into the castle, our army will attack the island directly and completely burn, kill and loot the ocean island!"

"Get orders!"

Soon, the Qing army broke down in Taiping Bay and stopped the ship, and then got off the ship and began a cruel campaign of plundering, burning and killing.

Li Xiao's shipyard was set on fire by the Qing army and turned into white land. The ships under construction were also burned to ashes by one fire. In addition, all the salt fields, brick factories, cement factories, etc. were completely destroyed by the Qing army, leaving only a piece of ruins. The immature winter wheat that was grouting in the fields was burned out by the Qing army. The fields that were originally green and full of vitality were suddenly burned out, with thick smoke everywhere, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of burnt.

At this time, the island guarding Jin Tongwu, who was guarding the steep and steep Zhenhai Fort, and the military and civilians, saw the results of the Qing army's hard work, but were completely destroyed inhumanely, and everyone was angry.

Seeing the shipyard he had worked hard to build and the ships that were about to be assembled were completely destroyed by the Qing army and burned into ruins, Lin Dazhuang, the director of the Marine Island Shipyard, and a number of shipyard workers, were all filled with tears.

When the farmers saw that the winter wheat that they could harvest last month was burned out, many people began to cry.

"Fuck! The Tartars who are in the vague way, how dare they pretend to be the Ming army to come to our ocean island to burn, kill, loot, sooner or later, I will ask you to pay your blood debts and blood!" Jin Tongwu said fiercely with gritted teeth.

After the Qing army destroyed the ocean island, Ma Futa and others did not have much joy on their faces.

Because, although the entire island has been ruined, there is little gain.

Ma Futa thought hatefully that the gold, silver and treasures on the island must have been hidden in the castle on the top of the stone rock mountain. It seems that if he did not take down the castle and eliminated all the Li Xiao troops who guarded the island, he would have mobilized all the troops to come, but he really had no gains.

After sweeping all the buildings on the ocean island, Ma Futa and Shen Zhixiang led their troops to the foot of Shiyan Mountain.

When they saw that the Zhenhai Fort built by the Ming army on the top of Shiyan Mountain was so steep and difficult to reach, they couldn't help but breathe.

It turned out that this Shiyan Mountain was an extremely steep bluestone mountain range. The rock wall was as steep as a knife, and there was only a pan-incidence up the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain had been cut into flat ground, and a steep castle with a circumference of 2 miles was built on it.

Mafuta noticed that near the top of the Yangchan Trail, there was a natural crack nearly ten meters long, and there was a suspension bridge connected to the Zhenhai Fort built on the top of the mountain. Now the Ming army in the fort has put away the suspension bridge. If he wanted to attack directly from the trail, it would be impossible.

Ma Futa kicked in his heart for a moment. He knew that the Ming army was guarding such a steep castle and he could not conquer it in one fell swoop.

Mafuta decided to persuade these guards and civilians to surrender first.

If these guys can automatically surrender and avoid a fight of war and a difficult siege, it would be the best result.

After a moment of discussion with Shen Zhixiang, Ma Futa decided to join Shen Zhixiang and a Han man who was used to surrendering, and took a group of guards to the end of the mountain path and shouted to Zhenhai Fortress to persuade him to surrender.

"The head general of the Ming army in the fort, please go up to the city tower to answer!"

With the loud shouts of the Han people's communication, a general wearing a fine iron armor and a bright red cloak came to the city. He glared at the Han people's communication and shouted loudly: "You are waiting for the Tartars to invade my ocean island and destroy my factory fields. I wish I could kill you! What nonsense is there now? Let me tell me!"

The Han people pretended to behave and coughed lightly, and smiled out on their faces: "When the two armies were fighting, it is inevitable that their property and equipment would be damaged. Is there any question about your general, and your surname is honored?"

"Hmph, you bastard who betrayed your ancestors and sold your country for glory, Zhang Da's ears are good. I will not change my name or surname. I am the deputy general of Chifeng Camp, Jin Tongwu!

"Oh, it turns out to be General Jin." A sneer appeared on the Han people's face, and then shouted: "Ming soldiers and civilians in the fort, please listen, the Qing Dynasty will treat all surrendered people well. As long as you wait for the fort to surrender, I promise you that no one will be killed or robbed of anything, and all the soldiers and generals will be rewarded. If you are obsessed with it, after the Qing Dynasty breaks the city, I will definitely kill all the soldiers and civilians in the fort, and you will not be able to regret it too late!"

The Han people shouted loudly to the city, but the answer to him was silent.

At this time, Shen Zhixiang, who was standing beside him, sighed lightly and shouted loudly: "Brothers of Ming army, a family is Shen Zhixiang, the former deputy general of Dongjiang Town. In view of the fact that both of you and my family were Ming army, please let General Jin and all the soldiers listen to my general's words. Now the ocean island is firmly occupied by our Qing Dynasty. You and other soldiers are scarce. How can you stay trapped in the Lone Fort? If the city is broken, you will be burned and you will die under swords and weapons, wouldn't it be unfair? Also, General Jin and the soldiers will recognize the situation and do not act like trapping beasts, and to the lives of the entire army and the people. If you are willing to surrender, Shen can guarantee that all the soldiers and soldiers will have their own rewards. As for the chief general, General Jin, our Qing Dynasty will definitely use it."

What Shen Zhixiang did not expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, Jin Tongwu's angry scolding on the city wall immediately rang out like thunder.

"Bah! Shen Zhixiang, you who betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Tartars for honor, dare to come and persuade them to surrender! Our army is full of loyal and righteous people, how can you be a traitor who is inferior to pigs and dogs? Shen Zhixiang, as the deputy general of Dongjiang Town, you do not want to serve the country and die on the battlefield. Instead, for the sake of profit and power, you lead the army to surrender and surrender. You are really shameless! Hum, from my perspective, you must have offered a letter of surrender to the Qing emperors, thinking that you have promoted yourself to the fortification of the Qing emperors.

You are here to earn my Ocean Island. Bah, what is your shameful thing? My governor Li believes that he is more important than you. He trades with you and calls each other brothers. However, he did not expect that Governor Li has a sincere heart and is fed a traitor who has no conscience and turns his back on others! Shen Zhixiang, don’t say nonsense, if you have the ability, just attack my Zhenhai Fortress. I will fight you with all the soldiers of the army to the end!"

Shen Zhixiang was blushed when he was scolded by Jin Tongwu. He gritted his teeth tightly and stopped saying a word.

The Han people on the side were angry about the news. He shouted: "Jin Tongwu! Don't show off your mouth. When our Qing army breaks this fort, we will definitely cut you into pieces and punish you!"

After hearing what he said, Jin Tongwu did not answer. Instead, he took out the bow arrow, put the arrow on the string, and shot it away with an arrow. Although the Han people's Tongshi were outside the range, Jin Tongwu shot quite accurately. The arrow actually flew past the Han people's Tongshi's shoulders, and the clothes on his shoulders were wiped by the arrows, which scared the guy so much that he screamed and quickly turned around and fled to the bottom of the mountain.

Shen Zhixiang stared at Jin Tongwu, who was angry and distorted on the top of the city with complicated eyes. He sighed in his heart and turned around and walked down the mountain with his guards.

"What! How dare the Ming army, who entered the dog, not surrendered?!"

The main general Ma Futa, who received the reward, looked furious.

"Master, these Ming troops are arrogant and hard. The arrow was so fierce that the slave almost couldn't come back. In fact, they were not shooting slaves, they were clearly shooting the face of adults." Han people cried to Ma Futa with a grievance.

"Shut up!"

Ma Futa yelled fiercely at the Han people's communication, and the guy was so scared that he immediately stopped talking.

"General Chen, let's talk about this Ming army now defends with the fort, how can our army capture it?" Ma Futa looked up at the castle on the top of Shiyan Mountain and asked Shen Zhixiang hatefully.

Shen Zhixiang thought for a while and replied: "Master, I want to capture this fort, but I think there are only two strategies available."

"speak!"

"This plan is to siege this fort, causing the food in the fort to be exhausted, and the Ming army will collapse. If we use this plan, our army will not need to reduce its strength, so we can sit and watch its defeat." Shen Zhixiang paused and hesitated: "What is the disadvantage? It is that it takes a long time and delays the time. I am afraid that the officials above will not be patient and hold them accountable."

"What about the second plan?"

"These two strategies are to build large siege towers and siege ladders, so that our army can attack the fort wall from the foot of the mountain. If so, it is necessary to first take time to build siege equipment, and then after a bloody battle with the Ming army to defend the city, we can defeat the enemy. In this way, our army's army will inevitably suffer losses, and the money and utensils in the fort will also be damaged. The advantage is that it is not too long, and it can be a quick victory."

"Then let's take your second plan. My Qing army has a sharp combat power. Compared with those Ming troops who only dare to hide behind the city, it is no problem to fight with one enemy of ten. Why do you need to waste such hard work?" Ma Futa paused, raised his two thick beards and ordered Shen Zhixiang: "You can cut down all the trees on this island to build siege equipment. If the island is not enough, you can ship large wood from Liaodong. Be sure to attack this island as soon as possible, and offer good news to the Qing Dynasty and Prince Yu!"

"Yes, I'll obey the order!"

In the following days, the open space on the island was busy. Thousands of Qing troops and craftsmen transported from Liaodong were busy day and night on the ocean island, and they stepped up the construction of siege weapons.

Jin Tongwu and others had no other way except to defend themselves by relying on the fort.

Tian Wei, the commander of Chifeng Guard, who is stationed in Chifeng City, has received bad news over the past period of time.

First, Jin Riguan and Chu Jigong, two generals, came to report that Pi Island was lost. Dongjiang Town General Shen Shikui died in battle. Deputy General Shen Zhixiang led his troops to Qing. Now, because of the ships that were sent to the Ocean Island, they were driven away by the original Dongjiang Town Navy ship besieged by the ocean island. They came to report that he was trapped in the ocean island.

Tian Wei looked at the direction of the ocean island at the end of the Northeast Sea, sighing with a sigh.

Due to the lack of naval forces, Tian Wei, the commander of Chifeng Guard, was anxious, but he was unable to send reinforcements at all.

Tian Wei, who had no choice but to hope that the thousand soldiers on the ocean island could succeed by relying on the dangers.
