Chapter 254 Sadness and indignation

Although the ship has been beaten into two sections by the sea wolf's artillery fire on the spot, and the stern of the ship has been buckled into the sea, the first half of the hull is still floating on the water. Some pirates who are lucky enough to die are lying on the bow shouting for help or shouting to surrender, but even so, the sea wolf faction did not let go. After this half of the ship, he continued to fire on it until it was completely torn to pieces, and the remaining living Chu Cai's old men were beaten into a pool of broken meat on the spot.

Even a few light ships simply rushed directly into the battlefield and used the bow* of the ship to kill the old Chu Cai's men who were struggling to call for help on the sea one by one in the sea.

Even under the anger of the sea wolf, they directly poked out an iron hook or long gun from the side of the ship, reached to the surface of the water, and stabbed those stubborn Chu Cai Lao's men. Some people were cruel and hot, hooked directly into the body of the people in the water with an iron hook, and then put him out of the sea desperately hard. Like selling pork, he hung the hook outside the starboard of the ship and let it scream to the extreme. He watched them slowly shed blood and gradually die.

This really scared the remaining Chu Cai's men crazy. They felt that they were cruel, but after looking at the performance of the sea wolves today, they found that their cruelty was nothing. No one wanted to follow in the footsteps of those accomplices. Even if they died, they would simply give a knife. It's more comfortable than hanging it on the starboard like pork!

So the remaining Chu Cailao's men, who had not made up their minds, dared not hesitate any more. They shouted and found the white cloth and hung it quickly on the mast.

Ma Xiao saw that the remaining enemy ships in the back mountain bay had hung white flags one after another. Although his anger had not subsided, he could only order to stop firing artillery, separate more than a dozen fast ships, and left the main fleet and began to pursue the ships under Chu Cai who fled nearby, while he led the fleet to continue to block the back mountain. Outside the bay, prepare to clean up the battlefield.

Yu Xiaotian on the shore did not notice Wang Hong's boat on the sea at this time, and his attention was on Chu Cailao's fleet in the back mountain bay.

At this time, on the surface of the back mountain bay, there are various boats, many of which are burning, and there are still messy wreckage and fragments floating on the sea, and many corpses are mixed with these fragments, up and down with the waves, which is really like a hell on earth. The scene is shocking.

After seeing more and more enemy ships raising white flags or picking out white cloth at this time, Yu Xiaotian breathed a long sigh of relief. He finally won the battle, completely defeated Chu Cailao, and basically achieved his expected results before the war.

However, so far, he still doesn't know whether Chu Cailao is also here, whether he was killed or waiting to be captured, or has escaped.

So Yu Xiaotian ordered to send people to the shore, inform Chu Cai's old men on the ships that had surrendered, and ordered them to move the ships and move them to other places in the bay to separate from the burning ships, so that after their surrender, the ships would be destroyed by the fire.

Chu Cai's men are no longer interested in resisting, so they followed the instructions of the sea wolves, pulled the boat out of the anchor and drove them away from the anchor, moved and dispersed to the other waters of the bay, avoided the burning ships, and then anchored again. Waiting to fall.

After the sea wolf stopped attacking, and some sea wolves began to guide the surrenders in the bay. At this time, the situation in the bay began to stabilize. Chu Cai's old ships, which had not yet escaped, began to move in an orderly manner. At this time, their actions seemed much faster, and soon The well-preserved ships avoided the fire one after another and anchored again to a safe area.

As for the dozens of enemy ships that have been ignited in the bay, they are still smoking and rolling flames at this time. You can feel the high temperature of the flames hundreds of steps away. At this time, Yu Xiaotian has no way to save these ships and can only let them continue to burn in the bay until they completely burn themselves. Until it goes out.

Under the order of the sea wolf masses, the old men who surrendered to the ship, after completing the re-anchoring, they all got off the ship again, or directly landed on the water, or ferryed the shore with a small boat. After landing, they surrendered to the sea wolf masses and waited for the next fall on them.

The black down crowd, one by one, squeezed into a small area on the shore with fear. Everyone was ordered to put their heads in their hands, put their heads down in their crotch, and sit on the beach.

The sea wolves came over and thoroughly searched their bodies with a plate of ropes. No matter what they were, except for their clothes, they confiscated them, and then tied their wrists. Twenty people took them away from the beach and drove them to another place to reassemble.

During this period, a man who gave up his life and money tried to keep his belongings and made a rebellious action. The sea wolf was not soft on this and solved it on the spot with a knife. The body was dragged directly out of the crowd to show the public.

In this way, under the iron fist of the sea wolf, these surrenders no longer dare to talk about anything, so they have to let them take away everything from their bodies and be tied up and taken away from the beach.

And the sea wolf members also warned them that for these prisoners, the sea wolf practicedating the continuous sitting method, 20 people in a group, 100 people in a team, one of one group escaped or made trouble, killed the whole group, and one group escaped or made trouble, and killed the whole team! A team tried to escape or make trouble, and killed all their prisoners.

With this sitting system, these prisoners are more honest. They can only keep an eye on some others, saving one person making trouble and causing their heads to move with them.

After a preliminary inventory, the sea wolf captured more than 1,000 people from the old man Chu Cai. As for how many people were killed at sea, this number is basically unknown, and it is estimated that the number will not be small. In addition, hundreds of people have fled to the mountains of Nanri Island at this time, and it is one of the best that they can finally escape from Nanri Island. Countable.

In this way, Chu Cailao brought more than 5,000 people on his trip. Except for these subordinates who were killed and injured on the island and their men who were captured and burned at sea, the total numbered almost 3,000.

After cleaning up the prisoners, the sea wolf troops began to board the ship to take over the captured ship. The fleet sent sailors and soldiers to board each ship with small sampan boards, conducted a thorough search of all the cabins on the ship, and caught dozens of people hiding on the ship intending to escape in troubled waters. Some of them tried to resist when they were found, and were killed on the spot without exception.

After the inventory, the sea wolf captured more than 60 large and small ships under Mr. Chu Cai. In addition, more than 50 ships were destroyed and burned at sea. As a result, more than 200 ships brought by Mr. Chu Cai lost more than half of them in this battle, which was no longer hurtful for Mr. Chu Cai. The bone problem has basically brought him to the level of cramps and peeling. For a long time, Chu Cai has always been unable to recover his current strength.

And now the war is not over. Although Chu Cailao has escaped, the sea wolf's fleet is still under the leadership of Liu Yidao and Luo Xianbin and is chasing them. With the temper of these two guys, they will never chase Chu Cailao through Meizhou Bay. These two guys will never return home with their troops!

It is estimated that Chu Cai will definitely continue to lose ships and his men. When he escapes back to Dongshan Island, he can have one-third of his strength left. It is estimated that even if the old guy goes out to read the almanac, he will burn incense in advance.

Therefore, after this battle, the sea wolf can be said to have won a great victory, which is no exaggeration to call it a great victory. This battle can be said to have made the Sea Wolf Group and Yu Xiaotian famous in the battle. For a long time to come, it will become the largest pirate group along the coast of the Ming Dynasty. Even if you dare not dare not say that it is the largest, it can at least rank in the top three. Put it on.

Listening to this series of numbers and good news, Yu Xiaotian should be very happy, but in fact, Yu Xiaotian can't be happy.

Although his command was quite beautiful in this battle and narrowly defeated Chu Cailao, he lost his first favorite general, that is, Wang Hong.

When the battle in Houshan Bay was nearing completion, Yu Xiaotian finally found the black flag raised on the mast of the Tiger Shark on the sea. When he first saw the black flag, his heart suddenly fell from the peak of excitement to the bottom.

He immediately felt that something had happened to Wang Hong, so he immediately sent someone to contact the fleet to inquire about Wang Hong's news. Soon the fleet sent someone to land and reported Wang Hong's original incident to Yu Xiaotian. As soon as Yu Xiaotian heard that Wang Hong was no longer there, he suddenly felt dark in front of him and almost fell to the ground.

Since knowing Wang Hong, Yu Xiaotian has been getting along very well with Wang Hong for more than two years, and he found that Wang Hong is definitely a temperamental person, loyal and dares to be a man. He is a very rare general. Although he is a little straightforward, sometimes he is more impulsive. , but he is very filial to the temperament, so the two get along very happily.

It can be said that in the past two years, Yu Xiaotian has regarded Wang Hong as his own brother, often treating him as his brother in private, giving him the greatest trust.

This time he set this big trap. The reason why he dared to hand over the whole fleet to Wang Hong and Ma Xiao and stay on Nanri Island is to believe that Wang Hong will live up to his expectations.

But what he never expected was that the farewell on Nanri Island a few days ago became the eternal farewell between him and Wang Hong. When the war ended, the two were already separated.

After learning about Wang Hong's death, the scene of Wang Hong and his relationship with him immediately appeared in Yu Xiaotian's mind. It seemed that Wang Hong's cheerful laughter echoed in his ears. Even if he now thought his heart was like an iron stone, he still couldn't stand it when he recalled these past events. He was so sad that tears suddenly surged up. After a while, he couldn't help covering his face and crying in pain.

When the people on the island learned about Wang Hong's death, many people couldn't help crying. Suddenly, there was a cry on the island, which diluted the joy of victory a lot.

After Yu Xiaotian cried for a while, he suppressed his grief, stained his tears with his sleeves, stared red eyes and asked Ma Xiao, who had just landed, "Where is Ma Feng now? And where are the people who followed Ma Feng's chaos now?

Ma Xiao knelt down on one knee and cried and replied, "I'm the big head! Ma Feng and others have been taken down by their subordinates. Considering how inconvenient it would be to keep them back together with the fleet, they temporarily sent someone to escort them on Treasure Island! When the war here is over, I will immediately bring it back here and give it to the big owner for disposal!"

Yu Xiaotian gritted his teeth and roared, "Sent someone to bring it all back immediately!" I will kill this guy with my own hands to pay tribute to the spirit of Third Brother Wang in heaven! ......”
