For a time, the morale of the Southeast Fleet was greatly boosted, while the Japanese ships were frustrated and their speed slowed down.

The four warships of the 1st Guerrilla Detachment passed in front of the Japanese ships in a zigzag, and the gunfire from the side guns in unison hit many of the Japanese ships.

Then, under the guidance of Siresma, the four warships made a sharp turn again, and still lined up in front of the Japanese ships, so that the Japanese ships were baptized by artillery fire.

Boom Boom!

The bow guns on the Japanese ship opened fire!

It's a pity that there is no practical posture, even if the big goal of the Ming people's ship is obvious, the Japanese people can't hit, and they almost all hit the birds.

Above the sea, the wind and waves shook the ship, the muzzle of the cannon was crooked, and I didn't know where the shells flew.

This is for sure, the hit rate is piled up with silver, and the "moon, moon, fire, water, wood, gold, and gold" of the Southeast Fleet are not a joke, and the training expenses alone are huge.

Yan Changwu, who was observing on the flagship, nodded with satisfaction, Siresma did a good job!

His command level is quite high, and Yan Changwu still has to learn from him in speed control, and this speed control is to maintain the distance between the two sides, so that the Japanese ships can eat cannonballs, and they can't threaten themselves.

At this time, the flagship was already packed, the sails were puffed up, and it started slowly.

At first, it was commanded by Captain David, who was skilled in making the most of the wind to get the third class battleship out of anchorage.

The battleships of the sail period were troublesome enough to maneuver, with many canvases and large sails, and it required the concerted efforts of men to be able to move such large ships.

Let's go!

Yan Changwu took over and commanded the battleship to leave the anchorage.

The Japanese boats were very brave, and despite the shelling they received, the owners of many sail boats broke through the resistance and rushed madly by virtue of their high level of maneuvering.

They are full of big ships, and what a feat it would be if they were to go up and burn it!

The "Second Guerrilla Squadron," consisting of four fast warships, went out to block them, while the two large ships retreated unhurriedly under the protection of the two fast warships.

The sound of artillery shook in Kagoshima Bay, and the hopes of the Japanese people were dashed!

Fast cruisers are enough to deal with small boats, they are fast, they are fierce, the artillery is constantly bombarded, and the deck of the ship is full of musketeers, who shoot bullets when they see people, and throw explosive packs when they get closer!

The scene is violent, but the Japanese people want to cry without tears, this is not the script they want, they dispatched a large number of small boats, wanting to fight big with small, burn the other party's big ship, become a winner in life, marry Bai Fumei, as a result, they can't fight back just by being beaten, and they are aggrieved!

……

The Nanemun was moving in the waterways of Kagoshima Bay, its bow unhurriedly facing southeast, leaving the devastation of the battlefield behind.

The aroma of baked cakes and fried eggs swirls around the hull of the ship, and it is only now that I have breakfast, and when I am ready to eat in the morning, I notice that the Japanese people are moving, and I have only time to eat now.

The food of the Southeast Fleet has always been good, and today I specially made a cake in the oven, which is fragrant.

As we ate and enjoyed the exotic scenery, the morning fog gradually dissipated from the port side of the ship, but the rising sun did not dispel the fog, and the places that were still covered by the fog may be headlands, islands and sandbanks.

There was no fighting, and even the stern Chief of Staff Storm was drowsy in his seat, and the others took the opportunity to be lazy.

The sun rises higher and higher, the water is illuminated with colorful sunlight, and the fog completely dissipates, revealing the shores on both sides, with lush mountain forests and meadows, as well as farmland villages.

Great!

It's a great weather, go to work!

There was a commotion among the four warships, several dinghys were attached to the boats, and the marines climbed down from the net ropes on the side of the ships, entered the dinghy, and rowed towards the shore.

Soon after, they landed on land.

Soon after, gunshots rang out in the village, and smoke rose from the fire!

Soon after, each dinghy "returned with a full load", pressing the waterline heavily, and even a sailor jumped into the water when approaching the ship, pulling a rope and the big ship towed the dinghy to the side.

Wolves, chickens, ducks, sheep, and slaughtered cows!

The people and things in the dinghy were recovered, the deck was full, and they headed for a large inhabited island on the right side of the mouth of the bay.

Fellow transports and supply ships are moored in the anchorage, while artisans are cutting wood to build docks.

A large number of Japanese people arrived together in despair, they were valuable commodities... Slaves.

The booming southeastern province needs a large number of laborers to do heavy physical work: such as logging, brick making, sand farms, mining, road construction, water conservancy repair, and so on.

There is a serious shortage of manpower in the southeastern province, and immigrants from the mainland are engaged in land reclamation, cultivation and planting, military service, industrial technology and management, and the southeast province is like a bottomless pit, and there is not enough manpower.

Those heavy physical work, then you have to be wronged slaves!

Don't look at the southeast province robbed the Dutch occupied Tainan, but the trade between the two sides was very good, the southeast province re-exported silk, porcelain and tea (tea was only booming later, but there was also some trade volume), the purchase of Dutch artillery (there were staunch patriots everywhere, and the artillery against the Dutch was sold to the southeast province by the Dutch in large quantities), Dutch metals, medicinal materials, Batavian spices, pepper, amber, linen, cotton, tin, lead, etc., and slaves.

(Explanation of the noun: staunch patriot!)

In fact, they are traitors, others are traitors to the country, they occupy a position, they have the opportunity to betray the country, but they are afraid that others will say about them, so they are thieves with a weak heart, and they say patriotic slogans, which are louder and louder than anyone else, showing that they are very patriotic and firm. ）

The Dutch were very good at business, for example, they tried to send their black uncles from Africa to work in the Americas, so that the Americas would flourish.

Similarly, the Dutch, who were suffering from a trade deficit with the southeastern province, saw that the southeastern province needed manpower, so they captured a large number of slaves and sold the local natives to the southeastern province (and also exported white overseers to teach the southeastern province how to better let the slaves work).

What a good Dutchman, they were so anxious that they even sold some of the natives who believed in God! (Hongmaofan went to Southeast Asia to spread religion, and the indigenous people who believed in religion should have been treated differently and were superior)

There is still a shortage of manpower, Taipei only entered our territory at the beginning of the year, and there is a shortage of people in the development of wasteland and gold mines, so that even people with one leg and one arm are useful.

As long as it can be moved, use it all!

happened to start a war with the Japanese people, how could Yan Dashao not do a vote!

"Slaves are good, I am a conscientious slave owner, at most I can give them better food, but I don't have to pay them!"

As a result, it is recorded in the history of the Japanese people: The southeast province went to the Satsuma Domain, plundered the local people, and the Satsuma Domain was depressed!

However, the historical record of the Southeast Province is completely different: the Governor of the Southeast Province led a fleet to the Wa Kingdom for a cordial and friendly visit......
