Outside the navy base, on the dark sea surface.
Suddenly, a number of tall ships appeared. The people on these ships all held torches, shouted at the same time, and quickly approached the shore.
The navy officers and soldiers could naturally see that all the ships belonged to the pirates.
However, it is rare to see a lot of ships on the sea.
But now, they are so densely packed that preliminary estimates suggest there are perhaps hundreds of ships suddenly appearing on the coastline.
Fortunately, they had received Zhao Jiguang's orders before and were prepared, knowing that a big battle would take place tonight.
Of course, also because of the orders from above, the navy officers and soldiers saw the pirates.
There was no immediate counterattack.
Instead, they took advantage of the time when the other party was docking to set up an ambush according to the previous plan.
This was something Zhao Jiguang had decided on before, because he had received accurate information from Yu Huatian.
Knowing that the royal family of the previous dynasty was committing evil, he would lead his pirates to take action tonight.
Therefore, an ambush had been set up long ago.
The purpose is to make the other party fall into the trap.
Even though there aren't many people in the Haizhou Navy Camp now, there are still more than 300 warships and 80,000 naval troops on the sea.
Zhao Jiguang was confident that this battle would be a decisive one for the navy commander Yang Wei. However, after seeing the remnants of the former royal family and the pirates appear, he did not immediately choose to counterattack.
Instead, let the enemy continue to approach the shore. It would be best if half of them have already reached the shore. This is the best time to attack.
Because in this way, the enemy will have to spend a lot more time and energy to evacuate.
In this way, the navy will have a greater chance of winning.
That is, under his plan and command.
The Haizhou Navy Camp still seemed extremely quiet.
It was only after hearing the noises made by the pirates that they realized the enemy attack.
The navy at the outermost edge of the camp had no idea that a big battle would take place tonight, so everyone was extremely panicked, beating drums and gongs and lighting all kinds of bonfires. The entire camp looked extremely chaotic.
As for the navy troops that had already been ambushed, they were all hidden in the deepest part of the navy camp, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
However, Chen Yuan, the third prince of the Yuan Dynasty, and his men, who were still standing on the deck of the warship, were unaware of this.
They only knew that this battle caught the Wei navy completely off guard.
Especially seeing the panicked look on the soldiers in the camp.
It also makes them feel certain.
The navy was completely unaware of this action.
"Your Highness, our vanguard has begun to land." At this time, a soldier came over and said respectfully.
The vanguard he mentioned was naturally not a real army, but was composed of pirates. They were just subdued by Chen Yuan and given the title of the Yuan Dynasty Navy.
That’s right, the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty royal family who had been wandering overseas not only established a court.
He also set up a proper navy and named it the Yuan Dynasty.
certainly.
The so-called Yuan Dynasty Navy is just a name.
Moreover, Chen Yuan usually did not pay them military pay. If they wanted to have enough food and water, they had to do their old job as pirates.
However, he also kept this in mind, thinking that if he wanted to restore the Yuan Dynasty in the future, he must have a good reputation.
Therefore, when those pirates landed and plundered the people, they did not use the name of attacking the Yuan Dynasty.
However, although the people were not clear about it, the Wei court was very clear about it.
Therefore, we have been trying to find ways to wipe out those pirates.
Reduce the power of the remnants of the previous royal family.
But after so many years, the effects are minimal.
Now, those pirates landed again under the command of Chen Yuan.
Holding torches and long knives, they let out shrill and terrifying screams, jumped off the boat, and rushed towards the navy camp.
In this way, the number of people increased, and it seemed that they were about to surround the entire camp.
When Chen Yuan saw this, his eyes became brighter.
"Master Weng, do you see? Our men have already landed. Our target is the Great Wei Navy camp. I've already received news that the Haizhou Navy headquarters is not only weakly defended, but also has the Commander-in-Chief, Zhao Jiguang, here."
"Who is Zhao Jiguang? He's the brother-in-law of the Wei Emperor, the son of the Marquis of Shenwu, and the future leader of the Wei military. If we can win this battle and capture Zhao Jiguang alive, what a victory that would be!"
At this point, Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said, "Also, I heard that the first generation of the Divine Martial Marquis Zhao was the first to attack the capital when the Yuan Dynasty was destroyed. If we capture Zhao Jiguang, it can be regarded as washing away the shame of the Yuan Dynasty!"
The previous dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty, had been destroyed for more than a hundred years.
But in fact, these remnants have always been working towards the grand plan of restoring the country and have never given up.
Even if hope becomes increasingly slim, as long as there is a chance, I will never give up.
"It seems that I really thought too much!"
Next to him, Master Weng heard this and nodded.
As a loyal minister of the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty royal family, he had only one thought for many years, which was to restore the Yuan Dynasty. Now that he saw hope, he was very excited: "Your Highness, as long as we can capture Haizhou, our situation will be much better."
"In the future, we can also use Haizhou as a base, thinking of continuously advancing towards the Central Plains, and then gradually restore the Yuan Dynasty!"
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his whole body was trembling.
