Chapter 106 Star Island Naval Battle(2/2)
"Your Highness, news just came from Jiangzhou that the Kunsha Gang once appeared in Jiangzhou. However, after encountering our resistance, they evacuated immediately."
At this time, Zhang Zong cupped his fists and said.
"The Kunsha Gang is not with the pirates from Dongji Island?"
Liu Xia asked curiously.
"That appears to be the case at the moment."
Zhang Zong said.
"Great, I was worried that it would be difficult to deal with them if they teamed up with the Kunsha Gang. Well, now there are only the pirates from Dongji Island. Then the situation is very simple."
Huangpujie laughed and said.
"It seems that Wang Kunsha is very cautious. Anyway, I guess he is worse off than dead now. After dealing with the pirates in Dongji Island first, we will deal with this Wang Kunsha."
Liu Xia gritted his teeth and said.
Before I knew it, it was already night.
The imperial navy was anchored ten miles away from Star Island, and all the ships were dimly lit, quietly lurking on the sea, waiting for the arrival of the Dongji Island pirates.
Liu Xia glanced at the sky. It was less than a quarter of an hour before midnight.
The Dongji Island pirates are probably not far from Star Island.
At this time, Zhang Zong hurriedly came down and said: "Your Highness, I saw that the pirates on Dongji Island are still thirty miles away from the east of Star Island."
"Very good, get ready to fight."
Liu Xia smiled.
On the other side, Lake was sitting in the cabin, frowning as he looked at the attrition reported by each warship.
In the past, Kana was handling these matters, and he was willing to be a free man, so he rarely interfered.
In the battle of Jiangling, although the battleships were not damaged, the number of men he brought out was less than 40,000, which was more than half.
Today, there is a shortage of manpower on some warships, which has seriously affected the operational capabilities of the warships.
It seems that after replenishing supplies at Star Island, you need to return to Ji Island to replenish some of your troops. Otherwise, when you encounter Wang Kunsha, that boy will most likely be taken advantage of.
This was a bad start, which severely damaged their morale.
Lake knew in his heart that his men were not a regular army. Only during the monsoon season would they gather together and simply practice for dozens of days before boarding ships to fight.
Usually, most people here are fishermen.
The resources of Ji Island are extremely poor. Even the nobles have a hard life, let alone the ordinary people.
Sometimes when there is bad weather, people starve to death on the island.
If you come here to rob, your life will be extremely difficult.
I have encountered that once these subordinates suffer setbacks, they are more deadly than the regular army.
When Lake was young, he also traveled in the Dragon Soul Continent, saw the wealth of the people in the Dragon Soul Continent, and also knew the gap between them and the Tianji Dynasty.
If the Nangong family hadn't intentionally joined forces with them to weaken the southeastern border garrison in recent years, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been so happy in these years.
Thinking of this, Lake couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Now that the Nangong family has fallen, I am afraid that life in the future will not be easy.
"Headman, we will arrive at Star Island soon."
At this time, the subordinate came in and said.
"Okay, I ordered that after arriving at Star Island, the battleship will dock first and all the captains will gather at my place. I have something important to announce."
Lake said.
"As commanded."
