For those veterans of the Zheng family's sailors, they have not been pirates for many years.

But there are some things that have been made for decades and have long been engraved in the bones.

Therefore, when Zheng Chenggong mentioned to them that they were going to rob Lang Tingzuo at sea and secretly transport the sea ships that intercepted the tax money and grain, these Zheng family tribes agreed one after another.

Their memories that have been dusty for many years have been awakened again, and they are even extremely looking forward to the upcoming "big deal".

The only difference is that this time they are not for their own selfish interests, but for the court and the Ming Dynasty.

How can snatching money and grain from the East Captives be called robbery? That's called taking back, taking back what belongs to them.

...

...

Mid-August, noon.

A strong southerly wind blew over the sea.

Hu Keli stood at the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, looking at the vast sea.

Clusters of waves rolled and crashed on the side of the ship, and from time to time a little splash splashed onto the deck.

He couldn't remember how many times he had been out to sea.

As Lang Tingzuo's confidant, he was responsible for transporting the money and grain from the governor's withheld taxes from Zhejiang to Dengzhou by sea. There were people arranged by Lang Tingzuo to unload the goods and take care of all the things.

In other words, as long as the freight is transported to Dengzhou, Hu Keli's mission will be completed.

"It's so windy!"

Due to the southerly wind, Hu Keli's fleet sailed smoothly on the sea.

Basically, you can hit the full sail, and the speed of the boat is more than half faster than when there is no wind.

At this speed, it won't take long to reach the waters of Zhoushan.

As a result of taking this route all year round, Hu Keli is very familiar with the sea conditions of this generation.

There are many reefs in the waters of Zhoushan, and if you are not careful, you will run into the reef and sink your ship.

For example, Hu Keli used large fortune boats to transport money and grain, and the most feared thing about the wood was the reef.

"Cheer everyone up!"

Somehow, Hu Keli always felt unsteady in his heart, as if something big was about to happen.

I hope he's thinking too much.

The wind on the deck was too strong, so Hu Keli decided to go back to the cabin for a while.

...

...

"Tell Your Highness, Dongyu's fleet has sailed through the Twin Headlands and entered our ambush circle!"

The voice was Chongming Bo Ganhui, and he commanded the central governor of the left, center, and right towns.

As a veteran who followed Zheng Chenggong in the second year of Longwu to raise troops against the Qing Dynasty in South Australia, Gan Hui must follow Zheng Chenggong in every battle, and he can be described as brave and good at fighting and making countless meritorious contributions.

Now Zheng Chenggong has been named the king of Yanping County, and Gan Hui has also risen and has been named Chongming Bo.

The entire plan of this ambush was formulated by him, which was enough to see Zheng Chenggong's trust in him.

"Very well, when the fleet of Dongyu ships sails to the established sea, we will take advantage of the situation to kill. Remember, don't fire guns, get as close to their ships as possible, and jump into the gang! ”

Zheng Chenggong's purpose in this battle was to rob Lang Tingzuo of money and food, so naturally he could not fire artillery bombardment. Otherwise, if the grain ship was sunk, wouldn't they be empty?

Fortunately, the ships sent by Lang Tingzo to transport grain were basically merchant ships, and it was impossible to be equipped with artillery, otherwise it would be too dazzling.

It was precisely because of this that Zheng Chenggong ordered the gang to fight.

It is not difficult to do this with the combat power of the Zheng Iron Man Army.

"Yes!"

Gan Hui resolutely clenched his fists and led the way!

...

...

After the fleet sailed over the twin headlands, the southerly wind, which had been blowing, suddenly stopped.

A thick fog followed.

It is very common for the sea to rise in fog, and Hu Keli had to order the sails to be lowered and slowed down.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.

"Boat, there's a ship coming towards us!"

But not long after Hu Keli's order was issued, his henchman Hu Nan ran to the cabin in a panic to tell him.

"Isn't it normal to have a ship, what are you flustered about?"

"It's warships, there are dozens or hundreds..."

Hu Nan was like ashes, and said very sadly.

Hu Keli only felt that his brain exploded.

What the?

Warship? Dozens or hundreds?

How could there be warships here?

The fleet responsible for transporting grain consisted of more than a dozen lucky ships, and it was impossible to throw off the warships in the absence of wind and sails.

There weren't even any decent guns on board, so Hu Keli had to walk out of the cabin and come to the deck to watch.

I saw countless sand boats heading towards his fleet, and some large lucky boats could be faintly seen in the distance.

It seems that they have fallen into the encirclement of the enemy and cannot escape!

Compared to the Fu ship, the sand ship had a small hull, low bulwark, and the soldiers were not sheltered from the deck, so they were easily bombarded by enemy artillery.

However, because of its shallow draft, fast speed, and flexible steering, it is very suitable for landing battles or broadside battles.

The other party dared to surround and attack his fleet with sand boats, because he had no artillery in his hands!

His grandma's!

Hu Keli scolded, knowing that most of them would not be able to escape today, so he thought about pulling a few pads on his back before he died.

"It must be a thief who designed an ambush, we can't live, but we have to pull a few backs to die!"

Although there were no guns on board, there were still bird guns.

This is to guard against the average pirate and water thief.

Although it is a little helpless to use the bird gun to deal with the Ming army, it is the only way to do it for now.

...

...

"Quick, throw the hook!"

Under Gan Hui's command, the Ming army threw the ropes with iron hooks on the Fu boat, and the ships of both sides were tightly connected.

The soldiers of the Ming Army's naval division were proficient in all the details of the battle, and they were very familiar with these operations.

The reason why Gan Hui didn't use the fortune boat to fight with Dongyu's fortune boat was that he was worried that the other party's dog would jump over the wall in a hurry and want to break the net.

After all, if two lucky ships collide together, even if they are not sinkable, they will be seriously damaged.

The sand boat is much smaller and more flexible because of its hull, and the other party can't hit it even if he wants to use the hull.

It's like an elephant has a hard time trampling a mosquito to death.

But an elephant that mosquitoes can bite is in a bag!

Dozens of sand ships used iron chains and cables to tie the Dongyu grain and fortune ship firmly, and after confirming that it could not move, Gan Hui gave the order for a general attack.

The Ming soldiers jumped along the iron cable to the opponent's boat, and cut down anyone they met.

To their somewhat surprise, there did not seem to be an army on board.

They were fighting with melon eggs who couldn't even put a gun.

Not to mention how to wield a sword with a sword.

Soon the Ming army achieved absolute superiority, and the crews of the grain ships dropped their swords and surrendered with their heads in their hands.

From the launching of the broadside battle to the Ming army's control of more than ten grain ships, it took less than half an hour!

Gan Hui shook his head when he saw this, this is not fucking enjoyable.

Why didn't Lang Tingzuo transport grain on a naval ship?

...

...

ps: The second more delivered. Gan Hui can be said to be Zheng Chenggong's confidant, and Gan Hui was captured and killed by the Qing army after the Battle of the Yangtze River in the original history. In this book, because of Zhu Youlang's letter reminding, although Zheng Chenggong failed to take Nanjing, he still evacuated in time. Gan Hui naturally survived, hereby explained. This chapter has been written for a long time, Lao Kun is so difficult, kneel and beg for recommendation votes for comfort~
