Chapter 245: The Great Pirate Zheng Qi
On Kunlun Island, He Xiwen ran out of the crowd laughing, "Third brother! I haven't seen you for three years, but I miss my brother to death! ”
After speaking, he looked at the four huge battleships that had been docked in the bay of Kunlun Island, and his eyes flashed with envy.
"Good! With these four giant ships, Lao Tzu must help this bastard to make a big mistake this time! ”
Ye Kai left a three-masted fast battleship for Gu Lihuan to prevent emergencies, and as for the army, he only brought 3,000 people, that is, a French mercenary battalion plus Chen Wenqi's third battalion, and Huang Laosi's fourth battalion.
Ye Huan's second battalion stayed in Pattani, and Liu Chonghan's Terengganu battalion was responsible for guarding Pahang and Selangor, but after this guy who didn't want to die when he started a war consulted Ye Kai, he handed over the Terengganu camp to his brother Liu Chongli to take care of, and he brought thirty selected elites to follow Ye Kai, saying that he wanted to be his personal guard, but Ye Kai knew that this guy wanted to go to the battlefield.
"What's wrong? Mo Guan helps this guy to harass Kunlun Island? Ye Kai and He Xiwen hugged tightly and asked.
Regarding the pirates of the South China Sea, he is still very concerned, they are all Chinese, and Ye Kai has always had the idea of whether he can pull them over!
"Why don't you come? This dog said, in the past, he would come to harass every three or five days, but since you brought five Taixi giant ships to King Ruan, there have been fewer comes.
But last month, Mo Guanfu and Chen Tianbao joined forces, and the Thousand Fortune ships alone dispatched one hundred and twenty ships to besiege the Hexian Town of the Yan family.
They sank King Ruan's Martial King plywood ship, and seriously injured a Taixi fifth-class battleship, if it weren't for the firepower of the third-class battleship Snake Queen, the town of Ha Xian would be over! ”
Ye Kai hissed, the Snake Queen in He Xiwen's mouth should be the third-class battleship Medusa that Ye Kai brought from France.
The plywood ship Vu Wang was the flagship of the Ruan family when he went to Europe, this armed merchant ship with twenty guns was sunk by Mo Guan Fu, and they also seriously injured a fifth-class battleship, it seems that Nguyen Phuc Anh's fleet stayed in the port of Ha Tien Town, and then was raided.
These pirates can dispatch one hundred and twenty ships of several hundred tons, and they can also fight decent raid battles, and their strength cannot be underestimated!
"Brother!" Ye Kai arched his hand at He Xiwen, "Do you think it's possible to pull Mo Guan Fu down to our side!" ”
What he said was to pull us over, He Xiwen understood with a tangle of eyelids, but then he shook his head.
"Third brother, let's be honest, my grudge with Mo Guanfu is a trivial matter, and the eldest husband can bend and stretch.
But Mo Guanfu is a madman, not only does he have no one in his eyes, but he also has the ambition of a hero, and he will not be sent!
He was originally a woodcutter who chopped wood, but he had to join the gang because he was kidnapped, and in just one or two years, he climbed to such a high position, with hundreds of warships and thousands of pirates!
The surrounding pirates also listened to his orders, and it is said that he could gather a thousand Great Fortune ships at the sound of his order, and Ruan Yue of Xishan was also ready to crown him the king of the East China Sea!
We can't pull such people, even if we pull them over, we only have these thousands or thousands of people in total, how can we place Mo Guanfu? You can't let him climb on top of me, can you? ”
Ye Kai touched his chin and thought about it, too, although Mo Guanfu has now been under Chen Tianbao, this is an expedient measure, according to the historical process, he will soon be named the king of the East China Sea by the Xishan Dynasty.
Although the so-called King of the East China Sea is a fictitious feud and has no actual fief, he has the power to open the government and build teeth, and divide the deployment, which is equivalent to the Xishan Dynasty admitting that the entire South China Sea is his Mo Guan Fu has the final say, such treatment, not to mention that Ye Kai can't afford it, and Ruan Fuying can't afford it.
Even if you give it, people won't believe it! Mo Guanfu, Chen Tianbao and others have been famous pirates for many years, hundreds of warships and thousands of pirates, how could they not come to join a person with similar strength to him!
Don't say anything about the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, anti-Qing and restoration of sight, if Mo Guanfu believed this, he would have died many times.
But Ye Kai is still a little unwilling, now he only has four ships, although the firepower is strong and the ships are advanced, but it is too few to sprinkle in the vast South China Sea!
At this time, there were no accurate maps, GPS, radars or anything, and four ships of several hundred tons in the South China Sea could not do anything at all.
Moreover, it is too expensive for this large Western ship to go out once, and it is not as convenient as the Chinese-style lucky boat or the offshore red single boat.
Chinese pirates have dozens of sailors, and a few cannons can go to sea once, whether it is spying on intelligence or investigating the truth and fiction, they are much more flexible, and Ye Kai's are all mercenaries, and there are hundreds of sailors when they are dispatched, and the money has to flow out, and they can't afford to be hurt!
What's more, he now bought these four ships on the surface, but in fact, Ye Kai was overhead!
The ship was made in England, the sailors were British, and the officers were British, although he got a few children of the Ye family to get on the ship, but it didn't work at all!
Moreover, the children of the Ye family have not played with galleons since they were children, they are too slow to learn, if they can get some pirates that they can control.
One can be on Jean. The British officers led by Wilson formed some containment, and second, they could also accumulate their own naval strength earlier.
When someone of his own can sail a ship, he will throw all these British officers to the naval school as instructors, so that these powerful galleons will truly belong to him.
"Then there's no one we can woo in? It doesn't hurt to be smaller, brother, we're doing big things, we're not afraid of too many people, and we can only succeed if there are too many people! ”
He Xiwen's eyelids jumped, and when he thought about it, his righteous brother has a big mind, people are not here to help Ruan Fuying win the world, in fact, he wants to sit in the world, and even do a great career like Emperor Hongwu.
Thinking of this, He Xiwen's heart moved, and he thought of someone.
"Third brother, I really have someone here, you can try to recruit it! And he's not small! ”
"Who?"
"Zheng Qi!"
"Zheng Qi?" Ye Kai thought about it for a while, he had heard the name of this person, this guy seemed to have eaten pirate food for generations in his family.
After his death in history, the fleet was handed over to his younger brother Zheng Yi, who married Shi Yang, a prostitute who sold himself on Donghai Island, and this Shi Yang was later the famous Zheng Yi's sister-in-law.
Zheng Yi's sister-in-law later married Zheng Yi's adopted son, the more famous pirate Zhang Baozai, after Zheng Yi's death.
"That's right! It's Zheng Qi, speaking of which, this guy still has a bit of incense with you, now the third brother, you have four Western giant ships, as long as you say the ambition of your life, Zheng Qi will definitely return!
He has three ships, more than 80 other small boats, and more than 1,000 strong pirates, which is also a big force! ”
