Li Jiucheng was very depressed yesterday.
His son Li Yingyuan was probably doomed.
No one in Dengzhou escaped and reached Shuicheng.
Li Jiuzheng estimated the strength of his troops, which was more than 5,000 infantry.
In fact, only 3,000 of them could go into battle, more than 5,000 naval troops, and more than 400 warships.
It is said to be a warship, but in fact it is a collection of large and small ships added to one place.
There are more than fifty real warships.
As for the navy, they are all beggars of the navy.
They can sail just fine, so fighting is unnecessary.
His strength and more than 300,000 yuan were his family wealth.
Li Jiucheng knew that he had only one way to go to Liaodong to make a big investment.
Li Jiucheng also knew that Zhao Lie had a navy, which consisted of more than 20 Xiyi warships.
He could not intercept so many ships.
He felt that there was still hope for breaking out of Shuicheng and reaching Liaodong.
Yesterday was a busy day, repairing the ship and sails.
Today we just put rice grain and fresh water on the ship.
We will set off early tomorrow morning.
Yang Fan will go north.
There is not much grain and rice in the city, and the imperial army may arrive, so Li Jiuzheng can't wait any longer.
As for my son, there is news today.
No, he is kneeling opposite.
"Dad, Mr.
Zhao said that as long as you leave the city and surrender, you will protect the lives of my father and son, otherwise my son will be executed in solitude."
Li Yingyuan was crying half a mile away from the city.
Young Master Li's current image is a bit miserable.
His face is bruised and swollen, a few front teeth are missing, his hair is messy, his clothes are tattered, his hands are tied, and he is almost the same as the homeless people on the street.
It is certain that he will suffer some hardships if he falls into the hands of the Polu army.
It is a good treatment that he does not lack any items.
Behind Li Yingyuan were more than a thousand cavalry from the Polu Army.
Zhao Lie did not arrange for infantry to suppress the formation.
It was not necessary.
As long as Li Jiuzheng dared to come out, these more than a thousand cavalry were enough to defeat the enemy, but he was afraid that Li Jiuzheng would not dare to come out.
Zhao Lie also knew that 90% of the time, Li Jiucheng, a bastard, could not be surrendered, but if he was really surrendered, human nature was too complex, and no one could explain this, so Li Yingyuan cried out.
"Yuan'er, it's not that my father refuses to surrender.
It's that Mingting has always been capricious.
He has done it before in Dongjiang and Liaodong by pretending to appease us.
Like this, Yuan'er.
As a father, please think about it and I will give you an answer tomorrow."
Li Jiuzheng was also filled with tears and choked with sobs.
As for whether the tears left behind are human tears or crocodile tears, God knows.
No matter how Li Yingyuan begged, Li Jiucheng said this.
Reply tomorrow.
Li Yingyuan was unwillingly taken away from Shuicheng by the Polu army.
He really couldn't understand why his father refused to surrender because he was his father's only son and the Polu army threatened him so much.
At noon, Li Jiucheng ordered the rebels to start boarding the ship.

This was not an easy task.
The exit of Shuicheng was to the east.
The situation of the exit could be observed from the flank, and the rebels had to be shipped.
Zhao Lie's troops can't be noticed yet.
Therefore, Li Jiucheng could only let the ships dock cautiously, and at the same time, he asked the infantry not to make any noise.
In order to control the naval forces on the ship from surrendering to the enemy, he asked the infantry to board the ship and guard them, and kill them immediately if there was any movement.
By the beginning of Mao Shi, only a few hundred rebels who were standing on the city wall holding torches as suspects had not boarded the ship.
"Marshal Du, will you send someone to know them and let them board the ship?"
asked one of his guerrillas.
"Sigh, this trip to sea is dangerous, and I don't know if they can reach Liaodong safely.
Letting them stay here is a way out."
Li Jiucheng sighed.
Guerzhi didn't close his mouth for a moment, but he said in his heart, you old man is so cruel, I don't want my son anymore.
In order to stabilize the army, hundreds of brothers were allowed to wait in the city.
All the ships sailed out of the bay and headed north.
Li Jiuzheng didn't let out a sigh of relief until the water city in the distance was no longer visible and there was no big movement in the sea around him.
He stared in the direction of Dengzhou and thought to himself, Yuan'er shouldn't blame his father.
Dad has no choice but to sacrifice to you every year so that you can wait for bliss.
Marshal Li Du had just finished his emotion when a cannon sounded in front of him.
This was the sound of an alarm cannon.
In the distant sky, there are dots of sail shadows, not many, just a few, but at first glance they are not hard sails.
It was his mother-in-law Zhao Lie's unit again.
Li Jiuzheng was speechless.
The entire Denglai rebel army of nearly 100,000 people was defeated by Zhao Lie.
Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Mao Chenglu, including him, Li Jiuzheng, were played by Zhao Lie at his fingertips.
He, Li Jiucheng, now has no son and just wants to find a way to survive.
It's true. . . , Li Jiucheng scolded him, he really couldn't attack Zhao Lie, he couldn't beat him, so he still had to run away.
As a general from Dongjiang, he knows a lot about naval warfare.
If the opponent's ship is bigger, he will use fire ships to defeat the enemies.
However, there are no fire ships at all in this trip.
Now that the morale of the army is scattered, who do you want to risk the battle?
It would be good if the sailors of the Dengzhou Navy and the captured Tianjin Navy could sail the ships to the right place.
This is to take advantage of the many ships and run.
The dotted sail shadows were clipper ships.
After the two clipper ships approached, one accompanied them several miles away, and the other immediately returned to the way they came.
The boat was traveling at such a fast speed that there was no trace of it within an hour.
Li Jiuzheng felt cold.
If Zhao Lie and his men were traveling at this speed, they would still be able to escape without even having a door.
Li Jiucheng looked at the rebel ships covering the sea.
It was said that they were a huge fleet just in terms of number.
It was simply the merger of the Dengzhou Navy and the Tianjin Navy, but Li Jiucheng felt uneasy after seeing the speed of the Xiyi ship just now.
Boom, several gunshots came from a distance, and the Western ships that had been accompanying them responded with cannons.
After doing this three times, I saw many sail shadows in the distant sky, approaching here.
Gradually, huge Xiyi warships were revealed one after another.
There were more than a dozen of them.

Except for two larger ones, the others were not too big.
They were about the same size as a large Fuchuan.
Li Jiucheng breathed a sigh of relief.
These ships were easy to handle.
There weren't too many.
They couldn't take care of the 400 large and small ships.
It's just that he relaxed a little earlier.
When these ships were two or three miles away, a large number of sails appeared in the direction of the Xiyi fleet.
Li Jiuzheng felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, and he might not be able to do well today.
Zhang Gusheng was sitting on the Wei Qing, using a telescope to look at the rebel warships covering the sea.
He was also a little worried.
There were too many, so he could only focus on the big ships.
I believe that some famous rebel generals would not be able to take small boats. , the same is true for gold and silver.
Zhang drummed and ordered people to use flags and horns to alert other ships and target larger warships for attack.
The vanguard of the rebel navy were small sand ships and haicangs.
They did not have red cannons, and they had to wait more than half a mile before they could fire.
The two sides were less than a mile away, and many rebel warships opened fire.
For a time, they were quite powerful.
After all, there were 20 or 30 warships with small Franchise guns firing, and the sound was loud.
It's a pity that these projectiles either fell into the sea or left little bullet marks on the Polu army warships.
I damaged some of the sail ropes, that's all.
Boom boom boom, with a much duller roar, several Polu warships in front opened fire, like several small volcanoes erupting.
Smoke and fire flew everywhere.
A Haicang was tragically hit by two patrol boats at the same time, and was dismantled almost immediately.
Several huge broken holes appeared on one side, and Tiago's can opener showed its power.
Several of them were broken near the waterline, and a large amount of seawater poured in, causing the Haicang to tilt almost immediately.
The hard sail of a sand ship was hit, and both hard sails were immediately torn to pieces.
Without the sail, it could only drift on the sea.
As soon as Fang engaged in the battle, three or four ships were severely damaged.
And it's a tragic situation of being torn apart, it's too brutal.
Fortunately, many rebel ships had infantrymen armed with swords and guns.
These sailors did not dare to neglect and had to move forward.
In this way, after two shellings, damaging and destroying six or seven warships, the Polu navy broke through the formation and entered the middle of the rebel navy.
The rebel navy's large and small artillery began to bombard crazily.
Of course, the artillery fire from the Jiu Shu Battle Formation was extremely inaccurate, and most of it fell into the sea.
Only 10% of them hit the Polu army's warships, but the destructive power was limited.
The vanguard of the rebels were all small boats, and the largest artillery was nothing more than a kilo-furram machine, which was used to hit them.
It only left some bullet marks on Galen's ship.
As for breaking the ship's planks, that was out of the question.
Boom, boom, boom, the seven or eight patrol ships that were the first to charge into the formation opened fire one after another.
This time they fired their bows from the left and right, because they were all rebel ships.
It's time to have a good fight.
This was the explosion of one hundred and fifty-six 12-pound, 18-pound, and 24-pound cannons.
The destructive power was astonishing.
Five or six small rebel Haicang and Sandbird ships were immediately severely damaged.

In fact, there are no sea ships in this situation, and there is another strategy, which is to use the many ships to approach the boarding battle.
This is the only way to win.
Li Jiucheng also knew that the question was which ship had the energy to sacrifice itself for other ships.
Nowadays, every sea ship only cares about itself and rushes out without caring about others.
They even board the ship to fight and stay behind to let others Escape?
When the Wei Qing and another 400-ton warship rushed into the enemy formation, it set off a bloody storm.
Soon more than ten rebel warships were damaged by their cannons, and the Wei Qing even used it to ram it.
The horn overturned a small rebel sand boat.
The violent performance of the Polu army shocked the rebel navy.
It was not that they had never seen naval battles before, but they were just small artillery attacks on each other, causing the enemy to suffer some losses.
They would either attack with fire ships or board the ships for a bloody battle.
In short, shelling is just an auxiliary method, and the final victory or defeat has to be fought on the side.
However, these Western warships can severely damage the warships one by one with artillery, and can even overturn the ship with the bow.
They have never seen it before.
Yes, it can be regarded as gaining some experience.
But if this knowledge were to be witnessed with one's own blood, it would be too bloody and no one could bear it.
The morale of the rebel navy immediately dropped.
They had no choice but to be beaten without fighting back.
No one could bear it.
What's more, more sails were approaching in the sky earlier.
These were not the smaller Xiyi warships in front, but the Xiyi warships that were larger than the largest Wei Qing.
They were flying the battle flags of the Polu army, and they were flying menacingly.
Come.
Li Jiuzheng saw more than a dozen, no, more than twenty, no, more than thirty large Western warships in the rear formation, charging fiercely.
The corners of his eyes kept twitching, and he couldn't control what he said.
He now had no confidence in breaking out of the siege of Zhao Lieshui's army. s: Thank you to Brother Wu Tianya for your precious monthly support, thank you to Wanxiu Tianxia, Yu Jia, Why Break the Sky, and Eternal Fire 100 for your rewards, thank you to Kuaiji Mountain Man 007, and the God of Jigubao.
I am a bit busy this summer and have no self-control.
