0881 The abolished Quanzhou Sailor
The interpreter said, "Monsieur Jack said that their kingdom of France is very strong! There are more than 10,000 warships in the kingdom, and this is only the first group to explore the way, and he is still a nobleman, so he is not willing to pay the pirates to buy the road. They wanted to trade directly with the Ming court. ”
Wang Desheng said: "When did my Ming court ever trade directly with the barbarians? Unless they're here to pay tribute! ”
At that moment, Wang Desheng asked a lot of questions through the interpreter, and the Nayi people also answered them one by one. The atmosphere on both sides was rather pleasant. After Wang Desheng finished inquiring, he left the fleet here to monitor the Yi fleet, and he took the representatives of the Gai Yi people directly to the governor's yamen to ask for a meeting.
After the group saw Xiong Wencan, Wang Desheng told him about the situation, and Xiong Wencan even said that Wang Desheng was confused! I want Wang Desheng to drive these Yi people back directly!
But where did Wang Desheng dare? had to beg Xiong Wencan bitterly to find a way. But Xiong Wencan just shook his head blindly, which caused the anger of the people present. One of them stood up and said something aloud, and the interpreter hurriedly translated, "Mr. Jack wants to ask, what are you talking about?" Have you decided to trade with the Kingdom of France? ”
Xiong Wencan said: "If you come to pay tribute, the official can still do it on your behalf." But you are just a trader, how dare you be ashamed to ask the court to trade with you? But the official can't do anything about it! You must leave as soon as possible! ”
After the interpreter translated Xiong Wencan's words, the Yi people were very angry and said a string of words and then strode away. Agree to a quick kill: "Mr. Jack said that you rejected the friendship of the Kingdom of France, and you will regret it!" ”
After the interpreter finished translating this sentence, he also ran away. So how could Xiong Wencan have been treated like this? was so angry at the moment that he slapped the table and scolded loudly. But Wang Desheng was trembling with fear!
Wang Desheng has always understood these sea people, they are all unruly people! As soon as he turned around, he might be about to go to war. But he couldn't accuse Xiong Wencan, so he had to arch his hand to Xiong Wencan and said, "My lord, I'll go back to the boat to prevent these people from making trouble!" ”
After Wang Desheng finished speaking, he didn't care about Xiong Wencan, and ran away as soon as he slipped away
Out of the governor's yamen. But where did Wang Desheng dare to return to the fleet? If there is a real war, won't he return to the fleet kill himself? So Wang Desheng just returned to the sailor camp and looked at the situation on the sea from afar.
Soon after the three messengers returned to their ship, the fleet set sail and began to circle the sea. Of course, Wang Desheng understands why? They are going in circles in place to increase the speed, which is a sign of going to war!
Wang Desheng immediately ordered his own soldiers and said: "Send a signal quickly, let the fleet come back, so that you can rely on the water village to fight!" ”
But this order is a little late! As soon as the flag was shaking, I saw a flash of red light in the Nayi fleet, and they actually took the lead in firing guns!
Wang Desheng patted his thigh and said, "It's over!" It's over! My life is at rest! ”
At this time, the battle at sea has quickly become white-hot! The Yiren battleship kept firing shells outward. Caught off guard, the Quanzhou sailor was embarrassed! The boats of the Quanzhou Sailors are old. Basically, a salvo from the side side can hit the ship's board and break the water! In addition, Wang Desheng was not there, and no one gave orders. So the Quanzhou sailors were quickly defeated and retreated.
But the Yiren fleet did not do anything to the people who fell into the water, but drove the ships to keep chasing and killing the ships of the Quanzhou sailors! They only need to abandon the Quanzhou Sailor's ship after it leaks, turn around and go after the next one! This is clearly to destroy the strength of the Quanzhou Sailor as much as possible.
However, fortunately, this place is not far from the camp of the Quanzhou Navy Division, and most of the ships still escaped. Seeing that their own ships were defeated and retreated, the heavy artillery on the wall of the wall fired repeatedly, covering the remnants of the sailors' ships to flee into the perimeter of the camp.
Those Yi people tried a few times, and when they saw that the heavy artillery was sharp, they did not attack, but directly set sail away. Wang Desheng saw that the Yiren fleet had gone far before he dared to count the losses. Unexpectedly, in this short period of more than an hour, the Quanzhou Navy Division lost thirty or forty ships, and these ships. And it's all big ships. The current Quanzhou Sailor has completely only one name left!
When Xiong Wencan received the report, he was even more stunned! Immediately, he asked Wang Desheng to immediately organize a fleet to protect Quanzhou. The defenders of the city were also ordered to be on guard.
But for two days in a row, there was no news from the sea. Xiong Wencan and Wang Desheng both relaxed a little, thinking that the Yiren probably went back without getting trade.
But on the evening of the third day, word came that someone had landed and ransacked a village! Not to mention the looting of the entire village, even the villagers were robbed! Only a few villagers hiding in the haystacks were not found, and they escaped!
Now Xiong Wencan is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot! He sent letters everywhere, asking each guard to organize soldiers and horses to prepare for the defense of the Yiren. But on the sixth day, news came that the Yiren had landed again!
This time, the Yi people not only plundered a village by the sea, but also went deep inland, close to the county seat. And on the way, he defeated a guard of 300 men and horses! The Huiyi people were still showing off their might under the county seat, besieging the city and circling it. He also robbed a large number of people and property in the two villages under the city!
When the news came, Xiong Wencan knew that he was in trouble. In the rebellion of the Japanese invaders, I don't know how many civil officials and military generals fell to the ground. If this matter makes a big fuss, let alone enter the cabinet, maybe you won't even be able to keep your current position!
Just when Xiong Wencan found a few staff members around him to discuss countermeasures, his housekeeper broke into the study and shouted: "Master, master, there is good news!" ”
Xiong Wencan was overjoyed when he heard good news! Hurriedly asked, "What good news?" ”
The butler handed a letter with both hands and said: "There are a few people outside the door, claiming to be the subordinates of the Red Eyed Dragon King, saying that they want to send the heads of the traitor Kong Youde and others over. It's just that I don't know what the government's attitude is, so I sent someone to say hello first. ”
Xiong Wencan was overjoyed, and said again and again without reading the letter: "Please! Please! ”
A staff member beside him stopped Xiong Wencan and said, "Dong Weng is slow!" In any case, I will read this letter first. ”
Xiong Wencan was reminded, stabilized his mind at the moment, and asked the staff to read it to him. After the staff read the letter, several people discussed. The chief of staff said: "Dong Weng, I have a solution here, which is to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, maybe it is feasible!" ”
