Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 931

To be honest, Kui Yi was really scared of being beaten by the Ming army!

From the beginning of the battle of Zeelandia City, when the battle first started, he absolutely did not expect that he could be captured in just one day.

But even so, he always believed that the Ming army was lucky, with a large number of people and ships.

Including later in Nanyang, Kuiyi was always afraid of the large number of warships and troops of the Ming army.For this reason, he had to run away after hearing the news.

Fleeing from Batavia to the Lion City on the Straits of Malacca, and then fleeing westward from the Lion City, to Daguang in Dongwu, to Chittagong, to Colombo in Ceylon, and finally to Goa in the Mughal Empire.Along the way, they always fled because of the Ming army. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as losing a city and losing a thousand miles.

However, from the beginning to the end, he always believed that the reason why the Ming army was allowed to avoid the Ming army was because the Ming army had more troops and ships.

Therefore, after arriving in the Mughal Empire, Kui Yi felt that the Mughal Empire was also a big country, and finally he didn't have to be afraid of the Ming army.

As a result, what he never expected was that the strength of the Ming army was many times greater than that of the Ming army, and Aurangzeb's ability to command troops was also recognized by him. However, after facing the Ming army, no matter whether it was a water battle or a land battle, All were crushed to death by the Ming army.

What shocked him even more was that in just one day, an army of millions was wiped out by the Ming people.

No matter what the reason is, Kui has a shadow against the Ming army.So that when he fled to Allahabad later, when he saw the roar of the camp outside the city, he fled immediately without saying a word.

In the end, Kui Yi went through untold hardships before he escaped to the Persian Empire and saved his life.

In his life, he was completely afraid of the Ming army, and if he was asked to face the Ming army, even if the Persian Empire had more troops than the Ming army, he would not dare to go.

As for the sea, after all, they colonized all the way by boat, and they were not beaten by the Ming navy. Kui Yi still felt a little bit at the bottom of his heart.

What reassures him even more is that there are now more than 100 sailing warships in the Persian Gulf alone. How strong is this combat power? If a hundred warships come over, even with the steam paddle steamer, he is still confident in defeating Zheng Zhibao.

Not to mention, in addition to more than 100 sailing warships, there are also large and small warships from Arab countries such as Persia and Oman, with a total number of more than 500 ships.

With such a huge naval force sitting in command, Kui Yi felt that there would be no problems on the sea side.

After escaping for so long, it was also very tiring, so I could finally take a rest.

If Zheng Zhibao had no eyesight and really knew how to attack by sea, he wouldn't mind justifying his reputation of "fleeing on wind".

As long as Zheng Zhibao is defeated, then he will lure the enemy to go deep, and fleeing after hearing the news is not fleeing at all!

The main force of the naval alliance is on Qeshm Island.It is the site of the Persian Empire, which was given up as the headquarters of the Naval Union.

This Qeshm Island, on the north side of the Strait of Hormuz, is the largest island in the Persian Gulf, facing the Persian coast across the Clarence Strait.More importantly, there is the famous Persian Bandar Abbas in the north.

The other part of the navy is stationed on Hormuz Island and Rajek Island, extending two large pincers like crabs to protect Bandar Abbas.

This Bandar Abbas was a seaport built during the time of Abbas I. It was used for foreign trade and was very prosperous.In addition, the Persian Empire has a mountain range from northwest to southeast on the side of the Persian Gulf, called the Zagros Mountains. The capital of the Persian Empire is in the middle. Along this mountain range all the way to the southeast, it finally reaches Bandar Abbas.

It can be seen that the geographical location of Bandar Abbas is also very important.

This morning, Kuiyi was on the beach of Qeshm Island, lying on a beach chair, enjoying a massage from a Persian beauty.According to his own words, after suffering for so many days, it is time for him to enjoy the blessings.

Anyway, in Persia, their king Abbas II led the army to march, and it is estimated that they have not yet arrived on the battlefield. It will be many days before the news comes.

Suddenly, he felt something was wrong, opened his eyes and asked, "Is it going to rain?"

To be honest, he was a little dissatisfied.When Mingming came out, there was no sign of rain at all. After lying down for a long time, he heard the sound of thunder, which made him want to move again.

However, as soon as he opened his eyes, he found that the sky was clear and there were no dark clouds at all, let alone thunder and rain.

After looking at the sky, Kui Yi suddenly jumped up from the beach chair, looked up at the sea, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Is it the sound of artillery, is this the sound of artillery?"

Fleeing from the Mughal Empire, he is a little sensitive to the sound of guns.

He wasn't the only Xiyi on the beach, the other Xiyi also looked up when they heard the movement.Soon, someone shouted loudly: "Your Excellency, it seems that the cannons from Hormuz Island and Larek Island are coming from the Ming Dynasty Navy, right?"

"Boom boom boom..."

The sound of thunder, or rather, the roar of artillery, became more and more intense.Needless to say, there must be a naval battle over there, otherwise there would be no such dense sound of artillery.

Since there is a naval battle, as far as the situation in the Persian Gulf is concerned, there is no other possibility except for the Ming Dynasty navy to fight.

Thinking of this, after Kui passed the initial nervousness, he immediately said angrily: "That's right, it must be the Ming Dynasty Navy calling! Xie Te, it's just in time!"

Then, while running to the camp, he shouted loudly: "Assemble, the whole army goes to battle!"

On Hormuz Island and Lareke Island, there are only a few sailing warships, most of which are local indigenous warships.

Zheng Zhibao's navy came to attack, relying on the warships on the two islands, although the number may be greater than that of the Ming army, it may not be able to stop it.If the real main force here, more than 90 sailing warships, kill them together, it will definitely surprise the Ming Dynasty Navy!

Thinking of this, Kui Yi became excited.

To be honest, he has been waiting for this opportunity.

This time, it is different from the war on the side of the Mughal Empire.

Because the war in the Mughal Empire was commanded by Aurangzeb, Kui Yi could only cooperate with him, and if he lost, that was Aurangzeb's problem.

But now, it was Kuiyi himself who led the naval alliance, and he was the one who had defeated Zheng Zhibao's navy. It was his honor, and it was a shame!And he believes that he will never lose to Zheng Zhibao in naval battles, this is his strong point!

Thinking of this, his mind became active.

There are ten sailing warships on Hormuz Island and Larek Island each, and there are more than 300 local warships of different sizes.With this force, it would take some time for Zheng Zhibao to destroy such a huge warship.

The best choice is that those warships consume too much of Zheng Zhibao's troops. When the scuffle formed a group, he led more than 90 sailing warships to kill them suddenly, and he would definitely defeat Zheng Zhibao's troops.

Thinking of this, Kui Yi was not in a hurry, and gave an order that the Ming Dynasty Navy is very powerful, and asked the ships to prepare for a while, and then go to battle when they are fully prepared.

In this regard, his subordinates are actually a bit disapproving.

After all, with nearly a hundred sailing warships, when did such a huge military force exist?
They, the Western Yi, colonized all the way along the coastline, with a few ships, or a dozen ships, that is, they competed with each other for colonies, and there might be more warships.That's it, isn't it invincible!

Now there are so many sailing warships gathered here, enough to fight against the navy of any European country. Even if the legendary Ming Dynasty navy is powerful, how much combat power is left after traveling from afar, just do it directly!

However, Kui Yi is the commander of the United Fleet after all, and although the people under him disagree, they still obey orders.

However, they soon realized that something was wrong.

Not long after they heard the gunfire, the dense gunfire seemed to be sparse.According to their experience, this is a sign that the war is coming to an end!
Could it be that the Ming Dynasty Navy just came forward, tested it and then retreated?
Or did the navy of the Ming Dynasty become so powerful that they wiped out the warships on those two islands in such a short period of time?
Even if Zheng Zhibao had more than [-] warships, it should not be possible to end the war so quickly.The most likely one is the first one!
But again, something is wrong!
If it is the first case, the Clippers should have come to report.

However, they did not see any Clippers coming to Qeshm Island.

You have to say that if the Ming navy won the naval battle in such a short period of time, there must be some remaining warships fleeing here, asking for help from the main force here!
What's going on over there?
Kuiyi and his subordinates were a little uncertain, and a faint feeling appeared in Kuiyi's heart again.

When fighting against other enemies, the battles are not bad, and Kuiyi will never make a mistake.However, when facing the Ming army, there are always accidents, one "scare" after another "scare"!
Under the apprehension in his heart, Kui Yi didn't dare to delay any longer, and rushed to the battlefield to see the situation first.

If it doesn't work, escape first!
No, with such a huge fleet of sailing warships, why are you afraid of the Ming Dynasty Navy?
Kuiyi was doing mental construction, and led the combined naval fleet to the nearest Lareke Island.

However, before he got close, he faintly saw black spots appearing on the sea surface.

Although it is not clear, Kui can guess that it looks like a big fish chasing a small fish, maybe it is a battleship chasing, and the battleship emitting black smoke is probably a steam paddle steamer from the Ming Dynasty.

With that in mind, he quickly took out his binoculars to observe.

As a result, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you will be stunned immediately after looking at it.
