On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, a victory report arrived from Jiangzhe.
The Anti-Japanese Army of Taizhou Prefecture, led by Wei Mingting, fought a splendid counterattack.
This battle was more hard-fought and exhilarating than any previous one, with the warships newly constructed under the supervision of King Qin playing a vital role in the campaign.
Wei Mingting's Anti-Japanese Army, aboard these new warships, sank more than half of the Japanese Pirates' ships, directly driving them into panicked flight without letting them come ashore.
Due to the limited time, only three warships were constructed, each barely fitted with four divine warrior cannons. Even so, they demonstrated great effectiveness.
Given more time, the Ministry of Works can achieve even better results.
At that time, it wouldn't be out of question to force the Japanese Pirates straight back to their homeland, or even chase them down and strike them in Japan.
