On the surface of the river, Zhou Li stood on the deck facing the wind with his sword. Although the big ship was large, the river was turbulent and creaked. His feet took root and did not shake.

There is a small boat ahead to report: "The Jiangning Water Village Fortress is destroyed."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Li nodded slightly: "Okay. Beat the drum and go ashore."

Then the drums shook the sky, and countless small boats were no longer hesitant, and the oars were flying, and they shot towards the water village like sharp arrows.

During the previous shelling, the Hengjiang iron chains were also untied one by one, but the Dongting Navy did not stop them at all, which was very smooth. At this time, except for the bustling wooden piles and iron piles standing under the water, there was no other way to block the boat.

The dense boats were close to the shore, and the shelling was unconscious. When the first boat landed, the shelling stopped. Then there was a loud sound of gunfire, like a crack in the middle.

The defenders were fighting back at this time, but they were sparse and easily attacked the river bank.

More and more small boats arrived on the shore, and batches of soldiers stepped onto the solid ground. The boats returned and went to the north shore and transported more soldiers.

Shi Kefa was broken through the defense line on the river bank without being able to block a single time. He walked in a mess and ran to Dasheng Pass to set up a defense line. As for Zhou Li coming ashore, more than 10,000 troops had gathered in this messy water camp.

It was only then that Zhou Li received news from the Black Guard.

"Shi Kefa retreated to Dasheng Pass, but Jiangning was not moving." The man from the black-clothed guard said respectfully: "According to inside news, Xu Wenjue was going to send troops to rescue Longtan, but was stopped by Ruan Dacheng and others."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Li couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that he is wrong. If Jiang Ning's soldiers don't come out, they must attack."

The black-clothed guard said, "Although we must break the city without sending a soldier, our black-clothed guard has been prepared in the city. When the general army arrives, we will cooperate inside and outside to break the city."

He also said: "It is time to take a leader and persuade those masters to surrender. At most, there will be some damage to the city walls, and there will be no other consequences."

"This is the best." Zhou Li said: "This black-clothed guard has made great contributions. After the war, the emperor will definitely give him a generous gift."

The black-clad guard smiled and said, "I can't wait to fight. The army is the main force."

Zhou Li laughed.

Then he summoned the general and said, "The plan to lead the snake out of the cave has been lost. It seems that the Dasheng Pass cannot lead the troops of Jiangning. Some of the remnants of the previous dynasty were afraid of death. I am afraid that Shi Kefa's entire army would be wiped out, and there would be no soldiers and soldiers to help. There is no need to wait any longer. I passed this order to the general, and after crossing the river, each army would take a break, attack Dasheng Pass at Chen time, with a limit of half an hour, and then attack Jiangning directly!"

"Here!"

The sky is getting brighter and a red sun rises in the east.

In Longtan Water Village, Zheng Wu held Zheng Zhilong under the tent, which made people unshackle and said with a smile: "Brother Zheng, I haven't seen you for many years."

Zheng Zhilong was covered in smoke and blood on his face, which was particularly embarrassed. Hearing this, he looked up and smiled bitterly: "I was in Fujian when I met Brother Shi, but now I am in front of Brother Shi, which is really shameful."

Zheng Wu smiled and said, "The two armies are fighting, and each is their own leader. Brother Zheng doesn't have to do this."

Zheng Zhilong also sighed in his heart. Thinking about the time, Zheng Wu was just Zheng Yunzhi's follower. He called Zheng Yunzhi the brother of the world, but never took Zheng Wu seriously. Now that he has been transferred, how can he be qualified?

It is said that Longtan Water Village is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack. After Zheng Wu defeated the Dantu, he immediately sent troops to Longtan. At about Mao time, he joined forces with 6,000 elite troops on the land to attack Longtan. However, it took two hours to attack, and it was not until dawn that it was captured.

In fact, Longtan Water Village was dangerous, and Zheng Zhilong had no omissions in his defense measures. He could only attack vigorously and remove his defensive facilities bit by bit before attacking Shazhou Water Village.

At that time, Zheng Zhilong's troops were greatly damaged and he had no strength to resist. He no longer saw reinforcements. After being persuaded, he surrendered.

In this battle, Zheng Zhilong lost more than half of the 20,000 naval forces, and now less than 10,000 people are still alive. Zheng Wu also suffered some losses. After all, it is not a land war. During the water war, once the ship is damaged, the chance of casualties is higher than that of the land war.

While Zheng Wuyi was responsible for causing damage to war and captured, he also asked someone to bring Zheng Zhilong to his front.

"Since the previous dynasty Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict to abdicate, the Ming Dynasty has been destroyed. Brother Zheng is also a hero who travels all over the world. How could he get involved in this muddy water? It's very unwise." Zheng Wudao.

Zheng Zhilong smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying a word.

It's nothing more than the word greed.

He thought that the navy was invincible and could not withstand the temptation of interests of a group of old ministers in the previous dynasty. He believed that it was easy to block the Yangtze River with the navy troops all over the world. He did not expect that he would be defeated so quickly.

He said, "As the Longtan is broken, I believe that the Dantu, the two water villages in Chongming are not spared." After a pause, Zheng Zhilong said, "The Chongming Water Village is my son Zheng Sen, and the Dantu is my brother Zheng Zhibao. I wonder if he has his life?!"

Zheng Wu said: "My nephew Zheng Sen is in Jiangdu at this time. As for the brother Zheng Zhibao, he wanted to apologize. When Podan Tushui Village, he was killed in the battle among the chaotic troops."

In fact, it was killed by the Black Guard. The Zheng Zhilong family had too much power on the southeast coast. As for Ying Yi, as long as Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Sen were enough, nothing else was necessary.

The black-clothed guard then killed him.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the soldiers of Zheng Zhilong's naval army were ready-made naval soldiers, even Zheng Zhilong wouldn't have let him survive.

His life was left to facilitate the integration of the Fujian Navy.

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he sighed secretly. Zheng Zhibao's death was indeed helpless. There was nothing guaranteed above the battle formation. For him, Zheng Sen would be alive.

"The current military affairs are heavy, so I won't gossip with Brother Zheng." Zheng Wu called someone and asked him to take Zheng Zhilong down: "Brother Zheng is at ease, come back to reminisce after the war."

Then a group of soldiers were left to guard the place and guard the prisoners. Zheng Wu immediately rushed up the river and headed straight to the Jiangning River.

At this time, Zhou Li was attacking fiercely.

The Dasheng Pass was basically established in the Song Dynasty and was abandoned long ago. The old ministers of the previous dynasty re-activated the place as the back pillar of Jiangning Water Village.

More than 30,000 troops of Shi Kefa were stationed in a short defense line centered on Dasheng Pass. After the Jiangning Water Village was quickly defeated, Shi Kefa ordered all his troops to enter Dasheng Pass, hoping to use Dasheng Pass to resist Zhou Li's attack.

However, even Shi Kefa himself has no confidence in this.

Thinking back to the beginning, the city like Fengyang Zhongdu could not withstand the attack of the Xia army, let alone the Dasheng Pass? The city was not high, the walls were not thick, the morale of the army was unstable, and the military was not well-established. Faced with Zhou Li's fierce attack, he was defeated for less than a quarter of an hour and then surrendered.

Of course, it was not Shi Kefa who surrendered, but his generals.

Shi Kefa stood in front of Zhou Li with his hair disheveled, cursing endlessly. Zhou Li smiled grimly and said, "Pediagra, the remnants of the previous dynasty, Shi Kefa, when he was in Fengyang, he didn't leave you. Where are you going today?!"

Shi Kefa scolded: "I will not escape anywhere. Rebel thief, if you act against the enemy, you will have no bones left one day!"

Zhou Li was furious and grabbed Shi Kefa: "Whether this governor has no bones left, you can't see it!"
