Chapter 173: Flowing

The night was confused, and the men, women, and children of the Liu family got on the boat one after another. They were accompanied by a shipload full of shipbuilding tools.

Seeing the dense new ships in the harbor, the Liu Hai brothers all opened their eyes wide.

"Brother Huang, how can there be so many warships?"

Huang Shishun laughed and said softly: "Except for the more than 20 ships built by your brother, the others were all "grabbed" by me from other shipyards, and the price is fair, and I will not lose them." ”

The Liu brothers looked at each other, looking at the faint artillery on the warship, the majestic and abnormal tiger and wolf soldiers, and couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

These days, their brother has been anxious, and even regrets making a hasty decision. If the matter leaks out, it will not be a disaster.

It wasn't until the Loyal and Righteous Army Naval Division was stationed in Quanzhou Port that the military prestige was prosperous, and everyone was relieved.

In the cabin, Li Bao took out a letter sealed with fire paint from his arms and handed it to Huang Shishun.

Huang Shishun opened it with trembling hands, looked at it carefully for a while, and handed it to Li Bao.

"General Li, don't worry, I need to supply the island in Quanzhou. General Li, congratulations, maybe in a few days, you will be the real history of the assassination. ”

Huang Shishun said with a smile, and the generals around him were stunned for a moment, and then they came up to say hello.

Li Bao smiled bitterly and shook his head. Although he is a feudal official, he is a place outside the world, and the courage on his shoulders is too heavy.

"The minister said that he would occupy the island of Ruqiu and find sulfur on the island of Liuqiu and the Ryukyu Islands"

The Ryukyus mentioned by Wang Song refers to the Ryukyu Islands in later generations, and Taiwan at this time is called Liuqiu. It was not until the end of the Ming Dynasty that Taiwan and the Ryukyu Islands were officially called independent.

"Penghu Islands, I didn't know, these islands still have such a name."

Huang Shishun shook his head slightly. He didn't expect that the good port that he often passed through when he went to sea already had a name.

"Huang Gong, choose Liuqiu as a port, recruit troops and horses, and reclaim one side, which is the stronghold for the loyal and righteous army to go south and north in the future."

Huang Shishun's heart was pounding. Wang Song's move like this is to establish a huge ocean empire.

"What the minister said is very true. The Ryukyu Islands are thousands of miles long, and there are many natives on them. If he builds a house and cultivates land, where will this man come from?"

Huang Shishun often went to sea, and although he did not know the specific situation of the Ryukyu islands, he knew the general customs and customs.

"Huang Gong doesn't have to worry about it."

Li Bao said with a smile: "Wang Xianggong said that this time we will first find out the truth of the islands, and then we will move the people here and garrison troops on the islands."

Huang Shishun nodded. In this way, all the problems are solved.

"Outside, according to the villain, on the map taken by General Li, there should be many people in Quanzhou."

Cai Wu looked at the map in front of him, as if he was thinking.

"Cai Wu, you haven't been here"

Cai Wu's face turned red and he scratched his head.

"Outside the staff, Chen Jianghua of Jinjiang County originally had a very good relationship with the villain, but because he killed someone by mistake, he fled to Ryukyu Island."

Huang Feihu also seemed to remember something, and nodded again and again.

"Outside the staff, what Cai Wu said is. The villain has also heard that many poor people in Quanzhou who can't survive have gone to Ryukyu Island to open up wasteland and farm, and live a good life. ”

During the Song Dynasty, due to the development of navigation technology, many coastal residents moved to Taiwan and the Ryukyu Islands, and there were many Song people above.

Huang Shishun nodded, pondered for a while, and said: "Huang Feihu, you and Cai Wu go forward, take this map, find more people who have been to Liuqiu or the Ryukyu Islands, no matter how much silver you spend, you must dig them up!"

The weather at sea is changing, just now it was still thunderous, heavy rain poured, as if to engulf the heavens and the earth, after a while it was calm and calm, the waves were not turbulent, and it was unpredictable.

If there were no experienced sailors such as Huang Feihu and Cai Wu, this hopeful sea force might have ended up in the embarrassing situation of being shipwrecked and dying.

Fortunately, Huang Shishun recruited hundreds of experienced sailors, many of whom were old men who had gone to sea with him to trade in the past, and because of this, the new navy of the Loyal and Righteous Army was able to sail peacefully in the sea.

Although, from Quanzhou to the Penghu Islands, there are only 400 miles of road.

In comparison, the level of refugees recruited by Li Bao in the Lianshui Army is a cut off.

Standing on the leading sea ship, looking at the series of islands looming in the distance, Li Bao's heart fluctuated, and the excitement in his eyes could not be hidden.

Not only him, but also the soldiers and sailors on the ship were all looking around, and many of them were excited. After all, they are on their way to conquer an unknown territory.

"Dutong, this is the Penghu Islands that Wang Xianggong said, where there is little wind and rain. However, it looks like a rough wave on the outside, but it is calm inside, and most of the sea ships can be stationed, and the rest of the ships can go straight to the river. ”

Li Bao shook his head. I don't know where Wang Song learned that this is a good harbor for shelter? However, it seems that it is not inhabited here, and it seems that future food supplies will have to be transported from Fujian.

Li Da joked: "I heard that Emperor Song fled to the sea, do you think he will hide here?" If it does, let's ...... again."

Before Li Da's words fell, Huang Feihu pointed to the sea in front of him and shouted loudly: "Brothers, pay attention, there seem to be pirates ahead!"

Li Bao was startled, picked up the clairvoyant mirror and looked forward, and sure enough, dozens of ships emerged from behind the island, and the hideous faces of the pirates on the ships were clearly visible.

I have long heard that pirates are rampant in the Great Song Sea, but I didn't expect to encounter them today.

"These shitty days are really arrogant!"

Huang Feihu's face flushed. These pirates are indeed so bold that they have about the same number of ships as their own, and they dare to come and rob them.

Do they really think that they are fat sheep to the slaughter?

"Brother Huang, we can't afford not to accept the big gifts from these guys. It seems that they have some good ships, just right for the navy. ”

Li Bao's expression was cold. Among the sailors who accompanied him, there were many shipwrights who could repair them even if they were broken. If it really doesn't work, I will find someone from Fujian, and I will build a shipyard anyway.

"Tell the brethren to go down and prepare, fight only pirates, and don't break the ship for me!"

Li Bao coldly gave the military order. Huang Feihu couldn't help but be happy, which one was the one who robbed?

On the pirate ship opposite, the pirates were fierce and fierce, showing off their might, and their eyes were wide open, looking greedily at the ships in front of them.

"Brothers, big fish come to the door, today is a good day!"

"Big brother, it looks like they are all big fish, this time we will definitely be able to return with a full load!"

The pirates were clamoring and shouting, and soon the opposing ship appeared in front of them, and the distance was getting closer and closer, only less than a hundred paces away.

"Wang San, Saturday, go up and shout, let the dog day stop!"

Seeing such a close distance, the other party was still fearless, and still drove forward, but the side of the ship turned to the side from which his ship came, and the side of the ship was aimed at the pirates' ships.

The rest of the boats fanned out on both sides, as if they were going to wrap themselves in dumplings.

Didn't they stop like this in the right way for themselves to attack the ship? What the hell are they going to do these shitty days?

"Holy shit, stop quickly, or I'll kill you all in a while!"

Just as the pirates were ignorant and shouting at the ship, they were surprised to see that the window on the side of the enemy ship opened, and a door with a swarthy cannon muzzle sticking out and facing them.

"Big brother, this dog seems to be an artillery!"

"Big brother, these people seem to be the sailors of the Great Song Dynasty!"

"Artillery Sailor"

Just when the pirates were still stunned, the flag in the hands of the officers on the other ship had been waved heavily.

"Fire!"

"Pong! Disheveled! Ponto!"

The cannon roared, the smoke filled the air, and countless iron balls and lead pellets tore through the air and smashed straight at the pirates on the ship.

"Be careful of the straight lady thief, hide quickly!"

There was panic on the pirate ship. Although most of them had never experienced artillery bombardment, the pirates also felt that something was wrong with the posture of the opposing ship.

The other party is so well-trained and unhurried, obviously he has no fear, and he will never just put on a show.

Iron balls and lead pellets came one after another, and the iron balls smashed the middle deck, sending sawdust flying. Countless pirates were hit by cannonballs, their flesh blurred, blood splattered, countless fell on the ship's board, and the screams were heart-rending.

Wang San, who had just shouted, lay on the board of the boat, and did not dare to raise his head for half a minute. Beside him, the eldest brother was hit by an iron ball, and his entire chest collapsed, killing him on the spot, and the tragic situation was unbearable to witness.

On his other side, his usual friend of wine and meat was lying in a pool of blood on Saturday, with countless blood holes all over his body, and blood was dripping out. A pirate's leg was broken, and his bones were white, and he let out an earth-shattering scream that made his scalp tingle.

There was blood everywhere, there were wounded everywhere, there were corpses everywhere.

Where is this dog's day, where is the official army, how can the artillery be so ferocious!

The sound of shelling continued, and the pirates panicked, and some jumped directly into the sea to avoid the fierce artillery of the opposing side.

The pirates on the ship behind were all dumbfounded. The tragic situation that happened in front of them made them lose the courage to escape for a while, and they were stunned on the spot.

Where is this battle, it is clearly a bloody and inhuman killing!

The opposing ships surrounded them, and the muzzles of the cannons on them were faint, making the pirates shudder.

"Listen to it, hurry up and arrest it, otherwise you will be killed!"

On the Song army's ship, an officer with a horn made of iron sheets shouted loudly.

"your grandma, brothers, row quickly, get out of here!"

Two ships outside the pirate slid out of the group. The pirates on board shouted loudly, commanding the sailors, trying to escape from the scene.

When the other pirates saw the ship fleeing, they began to shout loudly and wanted to flee.

"Fire!"

Sixty or seventy guns from more than a dozen ships opened fire together, not only at the two that had fled, but also at the middle of the group of ships that were about to move.

At a distance of less than 100 paces, iron balls and shotguns flew in the air, and the two pirate ships that had escaped had just rowed out a dozen meters away before they were already enveloped by cannonballs flying in the sky.

Amid the screams, the pirates collapsed on deck. The iron ball smashed a dozen large holes in the outboard of the ship, and the two pirate ships tilted up, one in front of the other, and slowly sank.

The pirates on board fell into the water and began to shout for help.

In the midst of the ship, several masts were knocked down, killing and injuring the pirates. No one dared to force their way out of the pirates who were bombarded by shells, and they lay on the board of the ship, not daring to raise their heads for half a minute.

A small boat is small and nimble, and the cannon is not easy to hit, and it quickly slides outward.

Countless smoking lumps of iron were thrown over and landed on the deck. The explosions of "Tongtong" came and went, and almost none of the pirates on the small boat survived, and the ship spun and sank into the sea.

The pirates were all pale, everyone held their heads, and many of them trembled and were terrified.

"Holy shit, it's a pity for two sea ships!"

Li Bao waved his hand, and the two ships sailed out and began to rescue the pirates who had fallen into the water.

"Say it again, everyone listens, if you dare to act recklessly, there will be no mercy!"

The soldiers quickly took control of the ship, and Huang Feihu couldn't help but feel worried as he looked at the six or seven hundred pirate captives.

"Dutong, how did these pirates get out?"

"Those who have no great evils and are strong are screened and assigned to the army, those who are extremely evil are conscripted as coolies, and the others are discharged to the island as citizens. When I went to Liuqiu, there were too many places where I could use them. ”
