Chapter 471: Zheng Hongkui escaped


Zheng Sanhu escaped, and a burst of cheers came from the Ningbo Water Village.

There is no doubt that this is a great victory for the Denglai Navy.

What's more important is that they won this victory without paying a heavy price.

It's nothing more than a few long boats and fast crabs.

The cost of this thing is extremely cheap.

Using this cheap product to replace the rebels' expensive fortune ship is simply a bloody profit.

Of course, the more important thing is that the Denglai Navy gained momentum and confidence through this battle.

After all, the opponent is not an ordinary cat or dog, but the world-famous Zheng family navy.

Their ability to defeat the rebels proves that they are one of the most powerful naval forces in the world today.

Zheng Chenggong is not blindly optimistic.

Because he knew that this battle did not completely defeat the rebels.

Zheng Sanhu will definitely lead his troops to fight back.

The next rebel attack will be even more ferocious.

He must be fully prepared to face this fierce battle.

During the rare truce, Zheng Chenggong ordered his soldiers to repair the damaged warships and water fortresses.

Although it may not be possible to repair it as before, it can at least be done.

The advantage of the Denglai Navy is that it is backed by a water fortress and can obtain sufficient supplies.

The rebels mobilized their troops and came from afar.

If they could not win a big victory in one go, they would probably become exhausted.

The most fatal thing is that they lack a place to stay.

From this point of view, it is particularly critical for the Denglai Navy to regain Jiushan Island.

This move completely hit the rebels within seven inches, leaving them in a panic.

Of course, the Denglai Navy also has disadvantages.

Its biggest disadvantage is that the navy is not as large as the rebels.

Even with all the calculations, the Denglai Navy was barely two-thirds of the rebels.

If they really open up their formations and fight on the vast ocean, the Denglai Navy may not be a match for the rebels.

After all, naval battles are no better than land battles.

Strong ships and powerful artillery are the way to go.

Whoever has a stronger fist is the stronger one.

Zheng Chenggong planned to severely defeat the rebels first, and then lead his troops to harvest the battle when their morale reached rock bottom.

Zheng Sanhu, who had escaped from the sea of ​​fire, was so angry that he was manipulated by Zheng Chenggong and damaged more than a dozen warships.

It was a great shame and humiliation.

You must know that these are large and fine ships, and each one requires a lot of money to build.

In other words, the Zheng family is very wealthy.

How can ordinary people afford such an expensive ship?

But Zheng Chenggong burned more than a dozen such expensive ships.

Where is the boat that was burned?

It is clearly gold and silver.

If this revenge is not avenged, how can he still lead the navy?

But the first thing Zheng Sanhu needs to consider now is not revenge, but studying how to break through the iron barrel formation in Ningbo Water Village.

Otherwise, even if I try to fight back again, I'm afraid I'll still have to hit a wall.

Zheng Hongkui was imprisoned in a secluded courtyard.

Although he had no worries about food and drink, he had no freedom at all.

I can only move around in the yard every day, and there is nothing else to do except tending the flowers and plants.

I am almost driven crazy.

After all, he still trusted his brother too much.

Zheng Hongkui has always followed Zheng Zhilong's lead.

In his eyes, his brother is God.

Since Tian will definitely not make mistakes, he just needs to follow his brother's lead.

It wasn't until he learned that his brother had decided to "support" King Gui's rebellion and had an affair with the Tatars that he realized that his brother could also make mistakes.

And this mistake is a huge mistake.

This move may push the Zheng family into an abyss of destruction.

So he had to intervene, but who would have thought that he and his brother would break up on bad terms.

Zheng Hongkui admitted that the success of the Zheng family was entirely due to his brother.

But this doesn't mean that the elder brother can push the family into the quagmire.

Wrong is wrong.

What's not good to admit?

All Zheng Hongkui has to do is to persuade his brother to change his mind before he makes a big mistake.

It's a pity that his brother didn't give him this chance.

Zheng Hongkui never thought that his brother would attack him.

When his brother sent troops to surround his mansion, Zheng Hongkui's heart dropped.

He knew that his brother was a very stubborn person.

Since even he can't stop it, it seems that there is no possibility of turning around.

Zheng Hongkui was imprisoned in this small courtyard.

He could only watch the Zheng family step by step towards the abyss, and his heart was as sharp as a knife.

Today, he was squatting on the ground pruning flowers and plants as usual, and heard a shout from outside the courtyard.

Zheng Hongkui couldn't help but frown.

It's too early for servants to deliver food today, right?

He had no idea and continued pruning the flowers and plants.

However, the shouts outside the courtyard became louder and louder, and finally the courtyard door was pushed open.

Zheng Hongkui couldn't help turning his head to look, and saw a group of soldiers in armor rushing in.

Zheng Hongkui couldn't help but be shocked.

Looking at this posture, could something big happen?

"What are you going to do?"

Although Zheng Hongkui's current identity is just a prisoner in captivity, the aura brought by being in power for a long time still allows him to scan everyone majestically.

"General, we are here to rescue you."

"Yes, General, the boat is ready at the dock.

Please come with us quickly."

"This is what you are" Zheng Hongkui was stunned for a moment.

According to his brother's temperament, he will definitely suppress any opposition.

How did these people overcome many obstacles to save themselves?

"General, it's a long story.

I'll explain it to you later.

Now you'd better come with us quickly.

It's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Zheng Hongkui was extremely excited.

Of course he was not willing to be imprisoned in this small courtyard for the rest of his life.

He clenched his fists and said, "Okay, let's leave now."

A crowd of people surrounded Zheng Hongkui and left the courtyard.

The horses were ready outside the courtyard, and they all got on their horses and whipped them away.

Needless to say the direction, we headed straight towards the pier.

Hundreds of people riding through the streets naturally attract a lot of attention.

But the people in the city didn't say much.

In this world, if you talk too much, you will be wrong; if you say too little, you will be wrong; if you don't say it, you will be right.

The more I talk, the more I feel sorry for myself.

Zheng Hongkui was overjoyed to regain his freedom.

He whipped his horsewhip desperately, fearing that the beast under his crotch would run too slowly and be overtaken by the pursuers sent by Zheng Zhilong.

When they arrived at the dock and saw the ship already parked there, Zheng Hongkui breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not too late, general, please get on the ship quickly."

Zheng Hongkui nodded and said hello softly, then walked quickly towards the springboard.

He skillfully stepped on the gangplank to the ship, and a group of soldiers also boarded the ship.

Once everyone was on board, they untied the cables tied to the wooden piles, spread the sails and left the harbor.

Seeing the ship going further and further towards the depths of the sea, Zheng Hongkui could no longer hide the excitement in his heart and roared wildly.

"Hahaha, I escaped" Zheng Hongkui was in a good mood and took the initiative to ask about the soldiers who rescued him.

It turned out that these were all people who opposed Zheng Zhilong's secret communication with the Donglu to support King Gui.

They had always been angry but dared not speak out.

After learning that Zheng Hongkui was imprisoned for opposing Zheng Zhilong's rebellion, they could no longer bear it and decided to rescue Zheng Hongkui.

After careful planning, they suddenly launched an attack and rescued Zheng Hongkui.

According to the plan, they would escape from the sea, which would be the fastest way to escape.

They rushed to the dock without stopping and boarded the boat to go out to sea.

The whole process was very smooth and never sloppy.

It's just that Zheng Hongkui is still a little unclear, where will they stay after escaping like this?

After all, Zheng Zhilong had raised his troops to rebel and was regarded as a traitor by the court.

They, the Zheng clan members, have long been imprinted with strong marks, and it is not easy to clear themselves of the suspicion.

These soldiers obviously had no idea and just wanted to take it one step at a time.

If that didn't work, they would return to their old profession of being pirates.

Zheng Hongkui no longer wants to be a pirate.

After thinking about it, he felt that the only way out was to seek refuge with his nephew Zheng Sen.

Now his precious nephew is a popular figure in front of the emperor.

He serves as the commander of the Denglai Navy and is in charge of the peace of Japan in Zhejiang.

Zheng Hongkui has a very good relationship with his nephew.

If he goes to seek refuge with Zheng Sen, he will definitely not refuse.

After thinking about it, Zheng Hongkui immediately ordered to march to Zhejiang.

These soldiers lack ideas.

Now that they have a backbone, how can they refuse?

They all rejoiced at the thought of being able to go and join the young master.

This is truly the ultimate road.

The water in the depths of the ocean is black.

Zheng Hongkui stood on the deck and squinted his eyes, looking into the distance.

He could see nothing but the shimmering sea surface.

There isn't even an island or reef.

They just caught up with the favorable wind, and the sails were all hoisted and fully loaded.

They sailed very fast and were now far away from Nan'an.

Zheng Hongkui believed that even if his brother sent people to chase him, he would not be able to catch up with him.

According to Zheng Hongkui's experience, it would take them only a few days to reach the coast of Zhejiang.

But he didn't know where to find his precious nephew.

After all, there are too many prefectures and counties along the coast of Zhejiang, and there are also many good ports where the navy can be stationed.

Zheng Hongkui heard that the navy commanded by his precious nephew defeated Zheng Sanhu in the Ningbo Sea and recovered Jiushan Island.

But now it's hard to say whether Zheng Sen is in Ningbo or not.

Maybe he has moved elsewhere However, Zheng Hongkui decided to go to Ningbo to try his luck first.

This is the only information he has now, and he would rather believe it than not.

Zheng Hongkui's mood gradually calmed down in the past few days after going to sea.

He was trying to think of what to say after meeting his nephew.

My nephew is no longer the young child who only takes care of himself under his father's wing.

On the contrary, Zheng Sen is now a soaring eagle, eager to make achievements and show his ambitions.

Of course Zheng Hongkui knew that Zheng Sen had chosen to serve the imperial court, so he would provide useful information to his nephew
