The sky is gradually brightening, and the area that He Demiao is responsible for has not reaped any benefits!

No meat, no soup!

At the bow of the boat, a group of people were sleepy, biting on sweet potato steamed buns, and they couldn't help complaining.

"My lord, I've heard, today is the last day......

"Yes, the red-haired man must have reacted, we are going to withdraw......"

"I really don't have the face to go back, we must be the least caught, and we must be laughed at by them......"

A group of people muttered, all of them were unwilling, eating while looking around with binoculars.

He Demiao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his heart was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, biting the steamed buns as if he was asking for bones, grinding loudly.

"My lord, look, there's a boat, there's a boat!"

Suddenly, a lieutenant pressed the telescope in his hand and shouted at the same time.

"Where, where?" He Demiao threw away the steamed buns in his hand violently and ran over with a roar.

"Thirty due northeast." The lieutenant pressed the telescope so desperately that he almost poked it into his eye socket.

He Demiao quickly turned the telescope, and sure enough, more than ten miles away, there were some ships coming, although they couldn't see it clearly, but they must be merchant ships!

"Hurry, camouflage, concealment, inform the other ships to conceal, make the pockets bigger, can't let them run!"

He Demiao yelled and waved his hand again and again.

The people below were more excited than him, and hid the small ship behind the big ship, and at the same time disguised the big ship as an ordinary merchant ship, and notified the ships in other places to hide it too, slowly forming a huge pocket.

He Demiao stood on the top of the ship, holding a telescope to observe the merchant ships in the distance, and the more he looked, the more excited he became.

"My lord, this is a fleet, there are twelve ships ......"

"Yes, it's not ordinary, there must be good things, and they are worth a fortune!"

"It's just that we only have six ships, isn't it a bit few, do you want to ask for help?"

He Demiao slapped him and scolded: "Fart! How can there be a reason to give fat to others with a mouthful! I'll keep an eye on it, and I'll think about tactics first. ”

A lieutenant pouted, this captain He Du has always been brutal, when did he learn tactics.

The twelve merchant ships didn't notice anything unusual, and sailed all the way south, heading straight to the huge pocket arranged by He Demiao.

"Sure enough, it's a red-haired man!"

He Demiao stood on the top of the boat, and as the fleet approached, he also saw more, and there were many tall and blue-eyed and curly-haired Xiyi people coming and going on the boat. The Ming people are difficult to distinguish from the Spanish. Tooth man and lotus. Lan people, but Dutch. The Lan people are the most active, and it is natural to think of them as they.

"My lord, there are no cannons, only some muskets, and there are not many."

"There are at most fifty or sixty people on this ship, so it should be easy to control ......"

"It's really not good, blow up and sink a few ships first, and give them a dismount!"

He Demiao kicked over directly and snorted coldly: "These ships are Lao Tzu's, who dares to blow up and sink!" ”

Everyone knew He Demiao's temper, but they didn't care, and one of them leaned closer and asked, "Then, what should I do?" There are many boats, and we can't chase them if they scatter and escape, and it will be cheaper for others to put them in. ”

This is the problem He Demiao has been thinking about, he is not good at these, and he keeps recalling some of the content of the military academy training in his heart, and wants to find a suitable tactic to put into it.

Seeing that this merchant ship was getting closer and closer, He Demiao scratched his head, and suddenly said: "Three small ships will detour behind them to prevent them from escaping, and the other two will arrange mines in front of them in their direction, a little more, and then surround them horizontally, and the guns of the middle ships will be ready!" ”

"Yes!"

With He Demiao's order, the hidden small ship quickly moved into action, and the middle ship slowly moved forward.

These twelve ships are indeed Dutch. The fleet of the Lan people, from the Wa Kingdom, first passed through the Ryukyus, then went to Macao, and finally went south. They are Dutch. The ships of the Lan people, the destination was Java, the Netherlands. Continental Colonial Headquarters.

The sudden appearance of the fleet in front of it attracted the vigilance of the people on board, a tall middle-aged white man, holding a telescope, observing from afar.

"Cueva, what's wrong?" An old man asked from the side.

Cueva shrugged and said, "I don't know, it may be fishing boats, you know, there are more and more fishing boats of the Ming people." ”

The little old man tilted his head, blinked, looked at the largest ship approaching with no expression, turned to the small ones, and said for a while, "I think it's a little strange, Cueva. ”

Cueva laughed, looked at him with a head and said: "Desa, you are an expert in shipbuilding, you don't understand the Far East, they are very backward, especially the Ming Dynasty. The continent is still chaotic, I guess, they won't last long, they will be in a mess, they can't care about things at sea, oh yes, they never go to sea, just like us in the past, they don't know how big it is outside, haha......"

Desa opened his eyes, pursed his mouth, and did not speak. He was indeed a shipbuilding specialist, and in the Far East he was only responsible for the construction and repair of ships.

"Major, there is a situation, we seem to be surrounded!" A soldier suddenly stood beside Cueva.

Cueva was stunned, hurriedly picked up the binoculars, observed them back and forth, left and right, and finally frowned, his expression was thoughtful, and he said in a very slow tone: "What do they want to do?" Do you want to surround us with six ships? Is Akito crazy? ”

Desa didn't speak, looking curiously that he was just a ship repairer.

"Major, look, it's artillery!" Some soldiers looked at the Chinese ships that came from the Ming Dynasty, and after removing their camouflage, dozens of cannons were revealed.

Cueva's face changed slightly, he quickly turned his binoculars, stared at the ship, and for a long time, he frowned and said, "Is this a pirate?" Why do they have cannons? Were they rebels of the Ming Dynasty? Are they trying to rob us? ”

Although Cueva frowned, his expression was not too worried, equipped with heavy cannons, such ships would move slowly, they were merchant ships, they would act quickly, as long as they got out of the range of the cannons, they would be safe.

"Leave them alone, speed up, don't go to Australia. The door is up, go straight south! Cueva Dao was full of confidence and said: "As long as we travel a certain distance, our bureau is safe, tell everyone, rest assured, take it easy!" ”

"Yes!" The soldiers went away with their guns, and the order was spread across the twelve ships.

Dessa put down his binoculars, turned to look at Cueva and said, "What about those boats?" They had no artillery, but there were hundreds of men on each boat, about the same number as we were. ”

Cueva smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about my friend, our musket is better than Siban. The teeth are not bad, and it is impossible for this group of pirates to get close to us......"

"Major, the pirates are approaching, shouting to us!" Before Cueva could finish speaking, a soldier came to report.

Cueva turned around and said with a smile, "Say, I also want to hear what these yellow-skinned monkeys have to say." ”

The soldier stood straight and said, "According to the interpreter, they are the navy of the Ming Dynasty, and we have violated their rules by asking us to stop the ship and be inspected." ”

Cueva was stunned for a while, when did the Ming Dynasty have a navy? Aren't they just small trolls in the river? And, violations? When do they have any rules?

"Leave them alone!" Cueva laughed absently and said, "Speed up the fleet, get rid of them, and let them play on their own." ”

The soldier listened and did not move, and added, "They also said that if the ship does not stop, it will be sunk immediately, and at the same time mines are set up in front of it." ”

Cueva frowned slightly, looked at the soldier and said, "Is it credible?" ”

"I don't know." The soldier said.

Cueva watched, lost in thought.

They are all wooden sailing ships, and if there are real mines, they may sink a few times, and it will be too late to rescue.

"Cueva......" Desa looked at him.

Before he finished speaking, Cueva raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Take it easy, we won't be intimidated by them." Tell the captain to turn, rush away from the boat on the left, and we'll just get out. ”

"Yes!" The soldier shouted.

Desa shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave.

Cueva looked up at the big ship that was getting closer and closer, smiled reservedly, shook his head, and said, "You are too heavy to catch up with our ......"

Bang bang bang

Just as he finished speaking, the sound of cannons suddenly sounded, and black cannonballs flew towards his head.

"Quick! Fast! Let's go! ”

Cueva yelled, turned and ran towards the middle of the ship.

Boom, boom, boom

Of the more than twenty shells, only one hit a ship, quickly setting up billowing smoke and slowing it down.

The twelve ships were making a quick turn, trying to break away from the Ming Dynasty ships surrounding them on the left, bypass the minefields, and continue southward to break away from the Ming Dynasty encirclement.
