Chapter five hundred and eighteen: vulnerable
The majestic official account of Zhenguo began to pursue the country for a long distance.
He will bite the Japanese ship opposite and will never let go.
The helmsmen and sailors on the ship were happy in the process.
These guys are familiar with the performance of the majestic official account. Every sailor has become used to his position and they are very relaxed.
Hu Kaishan looked at the bow of the boat every day, like a husband-looking stone, looking at him, waiting for something.
Tang Yinze was much more relaxed. He was different from others. As a civil minister, he was both the master of this ship and the recorder on the ship.
He needs to record the route he has to record what happened on the ship, even if it is just some ship experience, of course, combat experience is also essential.
Tang Yin has been trying hard to recall the Japanese pirates' combat methods and combat levels these days. He recalled the battles he had with the Japanese pirates. One by one, like a lantern in his mind. For several days, he did not dare to make a judgment easily, but after thinking about them these days, he finally accepted the cruel reality and wrote it down in his diary.
"Looking at the method of fighting, when the gang was first, he was still able to be as strong as a rainbow and fight bravely. Once he encountered a setback, he would be a piece of loose sand and escaped when he looked at the wind. There was no rules in the war. He was all based on his personal courage. He would be brave, but he was not a mistake. He was a enemy of three or five people. I looked at it again and again. The so-called Japanese pirates were not true and vulnerable!"
After making a vulnerable judgment, Tang Yin was a little confused. He was also from Jiangnan. He had long heard of the cruelty of the Japanese pirates. Even he himself could not imagine that he would make such a judgment about it.
He even felt that he had underestimated the Japanese pirates too much.
But judging from the oral statements of Hu Kaishan and Qi Jingtong, I am afraid that this comment is quite high.
Tang Yin smiled bitterly in his heart. People always feel lonely when they are on the sea. However, there is no poetic and picturesque on this ship. Some are a group of vulgar people. When the night is late, they are all taking abacus beads. The sailors who are preparing Japanese guards are always excellent in abacus. When they enter the camp, they only add or subtract the simplest, but later, they begin to be able to skillfully plan beads. It doesn't take long for a group of outstanding people to easily perform mental arithmetics. With countless numbers, they can always quickly get accurate answers.
If Fang Jifan were here, he would definitely think that this Japanese guard was simply a high-level mathematics training class for the Ming Dynasty. It would not take long before these guys were afraid that they would move towards calculus, algebra and geometric principles.
I sailed like this for more than ten days.
finally……
Every day at the bow of the boat, Hu Kaishan, who was holding a telescope and looking at the Japanese ship resentfully, suddenly howled: "Island, discovering the island... prepare, he is ready!"
His voice was like a magic garment, and suddenly, the whole ship was boiling.
This is a big island...
However, Qi Jingtong was so familiar with this place that he could not be familiar with it anymore.
"This is Baiwei Island." Qi Jingtong's eyes lit up and he stared at this familiar island. Thinking about the Penglai Water Village, where the sandstorm was destroyed, Qi Jingtong also suffered the greatest shame in his life.
And today, he came back and appeared in front of the island again.
He cheered up, his eyes were bright and he ordered solemnly: "Send the order, the ship follows the Japanese ships ahead into the port, be careful of the reefs and follow the direction of the Japanese ships."
"Go to the east...get the main sail..."
"Thirty directions in the southeast!"
At this time, the most test is the ability of the helmsman.
When the fleet of Penglai Water Village came here, it was because it was not familiar with the waterways here. Many ships directly contacted the reefs and suffered a great loss.
This time it was different. The majestic Duke of Zhenguo bit the Japanese ship in front of him. They turned left, and the majestic Duke of Zhenguo turned left. They turned right, and the ship turned right. The helmsman must follow the Japanese ship and deviate slightly, which may be like the Penglai navy before, and directly contact the reef.
This is the purpose of biting the Japanese ship.
It is meaningless to know the other person’s nest alone.
Near the island, there are dense reefs. Even if you are not familiar with hydrology and geography, no matter how good the ship is, it cannot easily pass through this water and reach the opposite island.
The sailor looking at the sailor kept reporting numbers, and then, like relay, the number was transmitted to the helmsman's ears. The helmsman finally gave up his radish. With a click, he picked up the radish that had been almost dehydrated for a long time and was swallowing it into his stomach, cursing and constantly turning the rudder. He was naked, with the biceps on his arms bulging, constantly correcting the direction.
Tang Yin was very excited. He was wearing a cloak. The sea breeze blew by, and his clothes fluttered for a moment, making a rustling sound.
Tang Yin arrived on the deck with his head raised and his chest held high, and he arrived at the deck with the officials on the boat. He took out his telescope and looked at the island.
Then... Tang Yin took a deep breath and said to the people beside him: "Qi Qianhu, you are right. This... is indeed the nest of Japanese pirates."
Qi Jingtong pressed the hilt of the knife around her waist and seemed a little nervous. He replied with great seriousness: "The number of people on the island is around a thousand."
"I think it's not just." Tang Yin shook his head slightly and said the estimated number in his heart: "I'm afraid there are no less than three thousand people, but I'm afraid there are many female relatives, and many of these Japanese pirates who can fight, so those who can fight should be around 1,500."
Tang Yin's mouth curled slightly, and a little light flashed through his eyes.
"Send the order, all the sailors are preparing to land on the island to fight. The thieves are right in front of us. They are entrenched here and attack the coastal defenses of our Ming Dynasty. Today, the Japanese pirates are right in front of us, and they are making achievements, at this moment!"
Sailors looked at me, I looked at you, and they barely cheered.
Hu Kaishan screamed excitedly: "It's today that everyone will reward you. Those who die in battle will be given the best and those who are given silver and white. They will follow me. Those who retreat in the last battle will be killed without mercy!"
"kill!"
Suddenly, the sailors wanted to jump three feet high, and they were so excited that they burst into tears and pulled out their weapons one after another.
……………………
The Japanese ships in front slowly entered the island's harbor.
Although they knew that the Ming army behind them was chasing them and they knew how powerful these Ming troops were, at the beginning, although they were desperate at sea, they quickly realized the intentions of the Ming army.
These Ming troops had no intention of pursuing them and capturing them all in one go. Instead, they had deeper plans and attempts, hoping to bring the Ming army into Baiwei Island.
So at the beginning, they refused to lead the Ming army into the island.
But... the supply on the ship was getting less and less. Either they completely lost supplies on this sea, starved to death, and thirsty, or... they were leading the Ming army's ship to Baiwei Island, hoping that the Japanese pirates on the island would join them in a decisive battle with the Ming army.
They were exhausted, as if they were all broken, and they were completely to the point where they had only bodies, souls, and thoughts.
To a certain extent, they consciously achieved their goals themselves. They deliberately wandered around the sea. After a moment of extra sleep, they could consume some of the physical strength of the Ming army following behind them.
But finally, the people on the Japanese ship could no longer hold on.
They arrived at the harbor and stopped.
And on the island, countless people rushed out.
They were very happy, like the New Year.
The ships that attacked Ningbo Prefecture have been going to sea for so long, but there has been no news yet. Many people still think something has happened, but now that they are back, they must have returned with a full load.
Countless people were crowded. When someone got off the boat, the tired man shouted: "The Ming army is here, there is Ming army."
All the Japanese pirates entrenched here were stunned.
There is... Ming army.
Those Ming troops dared to come.
Didn’t the Ming army’s navy suffer enough?
It's crazy to come now.
After a while, countless Japanese pirate leaders rushed to a village on the island.
This farm actually imitated the inland Jiangnan courtyard. In this isolated island, compared with other dilapidated sheds, this house stands out.
Soon, a man wearing a turban and a Confucian shirt listened solemnly to the retribution of a group of Japanese people.
This person is Zhang Ye, and he is also a scholar with great fame. He smuggled goods in the sea all year round. To put it bluntly, he is a private businessman, and he is also a giant pirate in the East China Sea that countless Japanese pirates in the East China Sea have changed their brides. On this Baiwei Island, he recruited thousands of Japanese pirates. They not only smuggled, but also hijacked other private ships passing by. People call him White-faced Shura. His skin color is indeed different from ordinary Japanese pirates. His skin color is like jade fat. He held his hands behind his back, frowned, and said in a pure Japanese verb.
"The Ming army is so bold? The Japanese guards along the coast have always been vulnerable? There are even Ming army who dare to come here... Then Erro Nakano has always been very skilled in martial arts and cannot be brave..."
He seemed surprised.
After so many years at sea, it can be said that it has been circulating in the East China Sea. When other Japanese pirates saw him, the white-faced Shura, they all avoided them like snakes and scorpions. As for the Ming army, there is no need to mention it. In his eyes, they are just native chickens and tiles.
"Zhang Sang, Zhang Sang..." A Japanese rushed in panting at this time: "The Ming army landed, the Ming army landed."
“How many people?”
"More than three hundred!"
Zhang Ye smiled, his face twitched, as if he had heard a huge joke. Then his eyes became terrifying and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"If you don't go in heaven, you don't have a way, and if you don't have a way in hell, you dare to break in. It's just right. Today, you just kill all these Ming troops, teach people how powerful I am, gather all the people... and take action."
There was a cold sarcasm in the voice.
