When the Yuan brothers were on the wall, there were big things happening here off the coast of Yangzhou.

Off the coast of Yangzhou.

For a long time, it was the sea area ruled by Liu Zheng's men.

Liu Zheng's caravan had to take a boat from Yangzhou to Jiaozhou and Funan, so there were often some navies under Liu Zheng to patrol.

After all, although this era is not the era of rampant pirates, because of the flood of commerce, some people with different thoughts and ideas have slowly learned that this is a way to make money, so some evil forces will breed.

After Cai Mao passed by here with a caravan a month ago and was attacked by pirates, Liu Zheng asked Zu Lang, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai and others to come to guard the overseas and sweep away those pirates.

It's just that Jiang Qin and Zhou Taixian led their 10,000 sailors to patrol around here, and they didn't find any suspicious signs back and forth.

Not even a single suspicious ship was encountered, let alone the pirates.

Jiang Qin stood on the large dragon boat and looked into the distance.

Scanning back and forth in the ocean, there was not a single fleet.

In the vast sea, there is no enemy at all.

"Zhou Tai, you said that we have been patrolling this sea for half a month, and we haven't even seen the shadow of a pirate, do you say that Cai Mao is not lying to us, where are the pirates coming from on this sea."

Jiang Qin complained a little, after all, because of Cai Mao's few words, Liu Zheng transferred them to this ocean, and it had been half a month, and they had not returned to shore.

Staying in the ocean all the time is somewhat boring, and naturally there will be some complaints.

Zhou Tai is more calm than Jiang Qin, which is why Zhou Tai is now better mixed under Liu Zheng and is more trusted by Liu Zheng.

"Brother Jiang Qin, don't think about it, General Cai Mao will definitely not talk nonsense, there will definitely be a group of pirates on this sea, but they robbed us of our things during this time, and they didn't dare to come over and continue to commit crimes, we must stick to here, we must eliminate these pirates, otherwise Your Majesty will punish them, and we can't afford to afford it."

Zhou Tai was very obedient to Liu Zheng's order, and he didn't think about returning at all, but planned to continue to patrol the ocean.

Jiang Qin was just complaining.

If he really wanted to disobey Liu Zheng's order, he would not dare to return to Yangzhou at this moment.

"Alas, when exactly will those abominable pirates appear? If you are caught by Lao Tzu, you must skin them. ”

Jiang Qin couldn't help but sigh, blaming all the depression in his heart on these pirates.

But thinking about it, if there were no troubles for these pirates, he Jiang Qin would not have come here to suffer this kind of wretchedness.

Just as Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were discussing whether these pirates really existed, these fleets under Zhou Tai's command suddenly shouted, and there was a burst of excited voices.

"There is a situation! The general has a situation! ”

Jiang Qin and the two small soldiers under Zhou Tai discovered the situation at this moment and shouted loudly.

In this way, it also attracted the attention of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai.

They immediately followed the shouts of the two minions.

Looking at the coastline in the distance, the sight immediately shocked them. Then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

Distant coastline. Some small black dots appeared.

If you look closely at these small black dots, you will see that they are more than a dozen large ships.

Although it was a dozen large ships, it was not possible to fully see who they were because of the distance.

But in this sea area, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai both knew about the nearby forces, and it was very unlikely that anyone else would have more than a dozen large ships.

People who can own more than a dozen big ships are basically reported by Liu Zheng's subordinates, when and where they will go.

They all have a clear grasp.

Now that there are some unidentified ships on this sea, it is no surprise that this is the pirate they are looking for.

Most of these people were the caravans escorted by the naval escort team under the command of Cai Mao last time.

They are Zhou Tai who went to patrol the open sea this time, responsible for capturing and destroying pirates.

"Okay, finally let us wait for these pups, but let's wait, this time we actually ran into us, then they don't want to escape."

Jiang Qin excitedly sneered at these pirates in the distance.

As he spoke, he scooped up his sleeve and drew his saber, faintly feeling the urge to go up and fight these pirates.

Compared with Jiang Qin's eagerness, Zhou Tai was more calm.

He didn't expect to lead his fleet directly to rush towards the enemy at this time.

Instead, he immediately frowned and calmed down to think about some of these people's circumstances.

"Brother Jiang Qin, don't worry, let's observe the other party's situation first. If you rashly lead your troops and horses to attack, the gains outweigh the losses, and there will be no benefit to our army. ”

Zhou Tai grabbed Jiang Qin, who was about to lead the fleet to charge.

Jiang Qin saw that Zhou Tai was holding him, but he didn't have the urge at the moment.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

He asked Zhou Tai.

Zhou Tai frowned and explained.

"The number of enemy troops is unknown, and the means are unknown. Although our army has more than 20 large ships, it may not be more familiar with this sea area than the enemy army. Rushing to the detriment of our army is better than waiting for these enemy ships to get closer and observe their ships before making plans. ”

Zhou Tai wanted to wait for these enemy ships to take the initiative to approach. Then wait for the opportunity to move.

This method of static braking is indeed more advantageous to them now.

When Jiang Qin heard Zhou Tai's words, he nodded willfully and said solemnly.

"Brother, what I said is very true, Fang is impulsive, and immediately ordered to go down and let the warship under my command. Spread out, form an encirclement, and slowly approach the enemy army. ”

After Jiang Qin listened to Zhou Tai's words, he immediately opened his mouth and issued an order to more than 20 big ships on his side.

They were not completely close together, but scattered, and after hearing Jiang Qin's order at this moment, the ships scattered a little again.

Only by spreading the size of the fleet can we wait for the enemy to approach, surround from the left and right, and completely control the enemy ships.

The ships on Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's side slowly separated, and because of the sea current, some of the enemy's ships gradually approached at this time.

When these enemy ships approached, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were able to slowly see that there was a black flag flying on their ships.

There is a white tiger painted on it.
