Chapter 386

When the order was passed, Qingzhou's 20,000 defenders and 8,000 navy troops all moved into action.

In just one day, everything was packed up, and the 20,000 defenders and officials of the imperial court withdrew to Nanzhou in a mighty manner, and even the people spontaneously followed.

It really only left an empty city for Xiang Tianxing.

On the coastline, the cavalry troops sent out first seized all the civilian ships, and after promising to compensate the people three times, they burned them all.

Then he easily boarded the eight thousand battleships of the Qingzhou Navy and headed to Nanzhou in a leisurely way.

When Xiang Tianxing arrived with the remaining 120,000 troops, he almost lost his temper and went crazy.

He stood on tiptoes and jumped like a thunderbolt, but looking at the vast sea, he couldn't do anything.

Now it's better, this is really a trapped beast, with no way to the sky and no way to the earth.

At this moment, Xiang Tianxing seemed to have aged a lot. He looked at the vast sea and cried out sadly: "Oh my god... you are helping me, why don't you wish me..."

Not only him, but the other generals also lost all morale, and some even fell to the ground in despair.

The army of more than 100,000 people was about to fall apart, and even the head coach Xiang Tianxing lost his fighting spirit.

Looking at the sky, he shouted several times in grief and anger, stretched out his hand and drew out his sword with a bang, about to wipe it off his neck.

The loyal men around him hurriedly stopped and shouted: "Master, what are you doing... You must not lose your fighting spirit..."

"Let go...!" Xiang Tianxing shouted angrily: "Now there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth... Do you want me to become his prisoner in Nan Yanxi..."

"I...I...I might as well just die..."

At this critical moment, a few small black dots suddenly appeared on the sea. After a short time, they turned into one.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked, and the troops behind them became even more panicked.

At this glance, it was clear that naval forces from some country had gathered around, and the one here, no need to ask, must be the navy of the Ming Dynasty.

According to rumors, the warships of the Ming Dynasty Navy were invincible. Back then, with only a dozen warships, they defeated hundreds of battleships of the Southern Navy of Great Yan.

Its fighting prowess is obvious to all.

Now, I have been traveling day and night, traveling all the way south from the junction of Zhongzhou and Dongzhou to Qingzhou in more than ten days.

I originally thought that I could launch a surprise attack and get the favored concubine of Nan Yanxi, Li Jingmo, the only daughter of King Zhengxi of the Ming Dynasty.

No matter how desperate he was, he could have escaped by boat, but now he was faced with the situation of being pursued by troops from behind and intercepted in front of him.

Not to mention that there are no ships now, but there are ships. We met this Ming Dynasty Navy, which is said to be invincible in the world.

Then, aren’t the hundreds of thousands of remnants of yours just there to feed the fish?

Seeing this, even the loyal ministers who had just been admonished lost all hope and drew out their swords and prepared to kill themselves.

The army behind them also put down their weapons, and the battle flags were thrown to the ground.

Some who have completely lost their will to fight are quietly withdrawing from the team under the leadership of their immediate superiors, preparing to find their own way out.

However, at this moment, an accident suddenly happened.

Several sharp-eyed generals looked at the sea carefully. As the warships gradually approached, their faces showed joy.

He shouted in surprise: "My lord... my lord... this is not the Ming Dynasty Navy... this is the Dayan Navy..."

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look and saw that the warship approaching rapidly on the sea level was actually flying the blue dragon playing with pearls flag on a yellow background.

This is the standard flag of the Yan Navy. The flag of the Ming Navy is the sun and moon flag with a black background.

Different from the Ming Dynasty Army's red background with golden sun, gold and moon, and white glory, the Ming Navy's is black with red background, gold sun, gold moon and white glory.

There are two more dragons under the sun and moon, one red and one gold, just opposite to the red sun and gold moon.

The so-called brilliance is a white triangle with sharp points and a circle around the sun and moon, exactly eight, forming a circle of brilliance.

The flag of Dayan Navy has a yellow background with a blue dragon spitting out red beads.

From a distance, the two flags are quite different and can be easily distinguished.

Seeing this, Xiang Tianxing suddenly became confused and said: "It's strange, this is the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty. What are these Yan navy masters doing here?"

"I don't know, my lord...but as long as we are not the Ming Dynasty Navy, we can have a chance of survival."

A general said happily, turned around and shouted to the loose army behind him: "What are you doing, what are you doing... Put up the flag and be energetic! How elegant are you!"

The troops grunted and reluctantly raised their flags, but they had long since lost the momentum they had back then.

Dayan Navy is gradually approaching, and the generals are gearing up to negotiate with Commander Dayan to see if they can take them to Dayan.

I saw the Great Yan Navy approaching rapidly, getting closer and closer, and stopped at the nearest safe distance from the coast.

Then, many sampans were put down on the boat and they slowly began to paddle towards the beach.

Xiang Tianxing straightened his clothes and was about to step forward to negotiate with the commander on the opposite side when he heard someone shouting on the sampan: "My lord... my lord... I am a subordinate..."

Hearing this familiar voice, everyone was happy, and Xiang Tianxing looked towards the voice excitedly.

Standing on the leader's sampan was none other than a very famous military advisor in Xiang's army.

He was waving to Xiang Tianxing and others vigorously: "My lord...my lord, don't be anxious, I will come down..."

Xiang Tianxing and others almost burst into tears when they saw clearly who was coming. They tried their best to suppress their excitement and waved to the military advisor.

After a short time, the sampan docked, and the military advisor jumped ashore. In two steps, he came to Xiang Tianxing and knelt down in front of Xiang Tianxing and said, "I am late to rescue you. I hope my lord will atone for his sins..."

"Oh... please get up quickly, military advisor, please get up quickly..." Xiang Tianxing burst into tears with excitement and came to his side in two steps.

He stretched out his hand to help him up and said excitedly: "What is the crime of the military advisor? The military advisor is the savior of my great empire..."

"Today, you are like a divine soldier descending from heaven. To save me is to save me from fire and water. I... I should worship you..."

As he was about to bow down, the military advisor was so flattered that he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "My lord, what are you doing? My subordinate Zhesha... You must not do this."

"My lord's kindness to his subordinates will not be repaid with death. These are all things that are within his bounds..."

After saying that, he changed the subject and hurriedly urged: "Lord, this is not the place to talk. People from the Ming Dynasty Navy and Coast Patrol Department may patrol here at any time."

"The reinforcements behind us are probably not far away... We'd better get on the ship quickly. Once on the ship, my subordinates will report the matter to you in detail."

"Oh...good, good..." Xiang Tianxing was overjoyed, but also knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time.

He quickly ordered the soldiers to board the sampan in an orderly manner and then transfer it to the warship.

However, it only took a short time from the time when we arrived at the beach and found that there was no ship until the military advisor docked.

Of the 120,000 troops, more than 10,000 were scattered.
