Chapter 663: Annihilation of the Pirate Ship

Li Guolou stood in front of the ship, holding up the telescope, and stood still. The power of science and technology is combat effectiveness, and the power of flowering bombs is endless, and Feng Zicai's training bombs should have been thrown into the sea a long time ago. Li Guolou's ignorance of Feng Zicai does not mean that he wants to deprive Feng Zicai of his right to command, only those who have courage dare to charge into battle, Feng Zicai dares to fight and fight, and he is born to be a general.

Li Guolou learned to fight in battle, and through one battle after another, he cultivated talents, discovered talents, and learned how to be a commander. Li Guolou has become more and more mature and has the bearing of a commander.

Daishimizu pursued the pirate ship in the sea, chasing and fighting fiercely, and vowed not to give up. Ten mosquito boats moved forward at full speed, huge cannons spewing out streams of fire, and cannonballs fell from the sky like thunderbolts hitting clippers. The pirates who sat on the fort were either dead or wounded, corpses, holes, and burning decks, which were in shambles. The pirates who returned fire with guns were ridiculous in this battle, and they were no threat to the mosquito ships at all.

The hull of a clipper began to tilt, the clipper was devastated by the shells, and what was even more terrifying was that the bottom of the ship was broken and the sea water had soaked into the cabin. Pirates jumped out of the deck into the sea with a plank or a life jacket in their arms. As far as the eye could see, there was a human head floating in the sea, and when he saw the fleet of the Great Shimizu Division, he was still muttering and screaming, and he wanted the fleet to rescue the person who fell into the water.

The second clipper capsized, and this time many people jumped from the deck, and the slaves who were imprisoned under the cabin also jumped into the sea, many of them women, all ugly looking, grinning and screaming, and wanted Daishimizu to save them.

Zheng Hengdan rushed out of the telegraph room, walked up the spiral ladder like the wind, and finally saw Li Guolou, panting and saying, "Report!" Commander-in-Chief Li, there are still many Taiwanese among those who fell into the water, should we rescue them? ”

"Of course you have to save, that's our fellow brothers, let the soldiers of the troop carrier clean up the battlefield." Li Guolou is calm and relaxed, gentle and elegant. The Daishimizu Shidai is a symbol of justice, and he came here to relieve the Taiwan compatriots in dire straits. The Great Shimizu Master is invincible, so that he can win the support of the people of Taiwan.

Li Guolou will change his military orders at any time, and he must be improvisable on the battlefield, living people are valuable, pirates can also be slaves, and even small Luzon people can contribute to Taiwan.

"Yes! I'm going to issue an order. Zheng Heng turned around in a hurry, this time he did not go down the spiral ladder, but held an iron pipe with both hands, and slid down from an iron pipe, "whoosh", the person had already come to the deck, and in the blink of an eye, he got into the telegraph room.

The troop carriers of the Dashimizu Division lowered their boats and rescued those who had fallen overboard at sea, and the officers and men of the Naval Division in this sea area were rescuing people. In the sea ahead, the battle is still raging.

The mosquito ship steered nimbly, avoiding the capsized clipper, and continued to sail forward, chasing the fleeing pirate ship and refusing to let go of any of the clippers.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Cannonballs fell from the sky, and the huge impact made the clipper tremble under the gunfire. The armor-piercing bullets were so powerful that they let out a deafening roar in the cabin, and the clipper seemed to be tossed in the waves, and could be drowned by the sea at any moment.

Su Saiya watched in pain as a speedboat capsized, and the captain of that ship was his brother-in-law Song Chaban, who was afraid that he had already died in the belly of the fish, and watched as the speedboats lost power and were sunk by the Great Qingshui Division one by one. Su Seya couldn't regret it, so he shouldn't have come to Taiwan to make a fortune, and he would have accepted it when he saw it, and he wouldn't have encountered Master Dashimizu. Others still have hope of living, but if he is captured alive by the enemy, I am afraid that he will be skinned by the Taiwanese.

Suséya watched as a cannonball hit the deck, and the force of the impact was so great that he fell to the ground. Su Seya knew that the command ship had been targeted by the Great Clear Water Division, and the fast sailing ship wanted to escape, but there was no strong wind above level 10, and he did not want to escape from the attack range of the Great Clear Water Division, and the enemy would have a few more shells, and the command ship would capsize.

Susseya opened the safety valve of the revolver, pointed the muzzle of the gun at his temple, and said to his followers: "Give my body to the enemy, surrender and release the slaves." ”

With a "bang", Suséya pulled the trigger and shot his head, splattering blood.

"Big brother!" There was an exclamation in the captain's room, and the pirates wailed that their end had come, and that it was impossible to fight the enemy to the death, and that the few furlong machines on the deck had already been dumbfounded. Competing with the Great Clear Water Master is like a mayfly shaking a tree, and he doesn't measure himself at all.

The stubborn pirate yelled, waved his sword and gun, rushed out of the cabin, and went to fight! Go for it! It was soon hit by artillery fire, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into charred corpses.

The remaining pirates were powerless to return to the sky, so they pulled up a white flag, and raised one white flag after another in the cabin to surrender to the Great Shimizu Division. Submission to the strong is also the law of survival of pirates, whether it is life or death For these pirates, it depends on luck?

After ten mosquito ships destroyed nine clippers, the remaining six clippers surrendered, and the clippers came to rest calmly on the sea, and the pirates knelt on the deck, holding their heads in their hands, waiting for fate to arrange it. This is their only choice, jumping into the sea in an unfamiliar sea to escape is a dead end.

The little Luzon people prostrate at the feet of the officers and soldiers of the Great Shimizu Division, kissing the feet of the victors with a kind of courtesy, and they only fought for the strong, showing their willingness to serve the Great Shimizu Division.

The officers and men of the Oshimizu Division did not kill prisoners of war, they were an army trained by Prussian soldiers, and they regarded death as if they were home. Honor is more important than anything else, everything is fought for honor, although he is full of hatred for pirates, but he is still treating injured pirates in the spirit of humanitarianism.

The officers and soldiers of the army on the troop transport ship felt incredible when they saw this scene, and Yang Jingwei, a lieutenant of the Xinwu Army, muttered: "It's a waste of medicine, it's a foreign pirate, the officers and soldiers of the Nanyang Naval Division have their brains soaked in water, and Liu Buyun is not worthy of being a commander." ”

"Shh The winner should be generous, you didn't survive, without Li Guolou's grace, you would have become a corpse long ago. The officers and men of the Navy Division are buying people's hearts, and you don't even understand this. Zhang Tiepao angrily reprimanded Yang Jingwei, he finally put himself into the battlefield, and he was doing the work of saving lives and helping the wounded, the army was a service soldier in the eyes of the sailor, and the two of them still had the rank of lieutenant, but in the eyes of the corporal of the sailor, they were the same.

Zhang Xiaotian was extremely dissatisfied and said: "Zhang Tiepao, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." Farts buy people's hearts, and those slaves can't hate to swallow those pirates alive. The officers and men of the Navy Division have a false reputation, and their brains are broken. If Commander-in-Chief Li knew about it, he would definitely remove Liu Buyun from his position. ”

"That's right! is this reason, Commander-in-Chief Li will definitely give Liu Buyun two slaps, the kindness of a woman is not enough to succeed, or is it our new military army happy and revenge. Zhang Tiepao, you have become weak, it is better to marry a slave and stay on a desert island to live a peaceful life. Yang Jingwei had someone to help him, and he ridiculed Zhang Tiepao, the officers and men of the army had nothing to do, and they were outsiders in the naval battle, so they could only judge the officers and soldiers of the naval division. Although the Great Shimizu Division won, the officers and men of the army did not take the naval division seriously, and they refused to admit that the officers and men of the naval division were superior to the army.

Zhang Tiepao glanced at a group of slaves in the cabin, Taiwanese minority men and women, who were too ugly, even more ugly than the pirates Little Luzon. No more than 1.5 meters tall, black and thin body, with scattered heads, it looks malnourished at first glance. To let him marry a female slave is simply an insult to his personality.

"I have a wife in Shandong, Yang Jingwei, the quota of female slaves is given to you. Don't you like the little bucktooth girl the most! Zhang Tiepao laughed, winning a round of applause.

Yang Jingwei didn't think it was allowed, and happily kicked a bound pirate into the sea. Following Arirang is refreshing, those who should be saved will be saved, and those who should disappear will be saved now, so as to save future troubles.

The officers and men of the troop transport ship salvaged the slaves who had fallen into the water, and the group of slaves was watched like orangutans. Captain Arirang received a military order to rescue the drowning man and rescue more than 100 slaves. However, under the pretext that the cabin was too small, he tied up the rescued pirates and threw them into the sea.

The troop carrier did not save a pirate, it was the arrangement of fate, and Arirang did not care about any military orders. After following Li Guolou for so long, doesn't he know what kind of temperament the chief has? Li Guolou shows people as a righteous man and a gentleman, and writes magnanimously to people. But Li Guolou raised a group of vicious villains, and the supervision team specialized in killing prisoners of war. You have to learn to share the worries of your superiors, why do you have to be so burdensome during the war, you should kill or kill.

Arirang is not afraid of someone complaining, the sky is falling and there is Li Guolou on top, anyway, he doesn't want a pirate, what about other troop carriers? Nothing to do with him.

Commander Liu Buyun was immersed in the joy of victory, and the Da Qingshui Division completely annihilated the pirate fleet in the waters of Magong Port, and it was he who commanded ten mosquito ships to fight. Liu Buyun didn't know that many people were dissatisfied with him, and the telegram accusing him flew like a snowflake to the command ship, and his colleagues were also complaining to Li Guolou, and the most common words on the telegram were "women's benevolence."

Li Guolou looked at the telegram and did not make an evaluation of Liu Buyun, and the commander could not overstep his responsibilities and keep an eye on every link on the battlefield, and let the officers and soldiers vent their anger on the battlefield, and the image of the righteous division should be written down with a pen, and it would become a historical fact, so why should it be regarded as a historical truth.

Seeing the captains of other mosquito ships commenting on Liu Buyun, Li Guolou felt that Liu Buyun was still too young to take on the heavy responsibility. Or Deng Shichang said it well, "Master Da Qingshui is here to rescue the people of Taiwan, and he should give priority to the rescued slaves." In front of the slaves, it was extremely inappropriate to rescue the pirates of the little Luzon kingdom. ”

Since the wood has been completed and Li Guolou has not dealt with anyone, it is completely acceptable for the captain of the mosquito ship to express his opinions after the war. In the future, in the tactics class, criticize Liu Buyun a few words, this kind of trivial matter is harmless.

"Send a congratulatory telegram to Liu Buyun and inform the whole army of the results of the battle. The Quartermaster Department has been asked to take proper care of the 356 Taiwan compatriots, not to use the word slave, and to respect the customs of Taiwan's ethnic minorities. Li Guolou was full of spirits and stood proudly in the bow of the ship, and the people of Taiwan would welcome the victorious army, and he would lead the people of Taiwan to expel the Japanese army from the island of Taiwan.

Lieutenant Colonel Hongdu of the Quartermaster Department received Li Guolou's military order and immediately distributed military supplies and sent clothes and other daily necessities to 356 Taiwan compatriots. Logistics management is a huge and complex system, and those who are incapable cannot enter the threshold of the logistics department at all. The numbers on the books alone are confusing.

Hongdu is capable, but he is also a corrupt official. In the past, he drank the blood of soldiers in the Dagukou Fort, and he was a good hand. But since following Li Guolou, the ideological realm has made a great leap, and it is no longer the Hongdu of the past, he has become as incorruptible as water, even the fat on his stomach has disappeared, and he is full of vitality like a recruit. The Xinwu Army was born for war, and he was the one who delivered supplies to this army, and he was down-to-earth and orderly.

Hongdu knew very well that following Li Guolou would have a great future, and he would come to Taiwan to fight, and at least he would have the rank of lieutenant colonel when he returned. In the future, promotion to the military department will not be a problem. Hong was unwilling to hide behind the scenes and personally went to comfort the Taiwan compatriots.

Some of these slaves were Han Chinese, and Hongdu could still communicate with them and ask for warmth. The vast majority of slaves were ethnic minorities, mostly Atayal and Northern Zou people, who spoke with ducks and could only express their emotions with gestures.

Among the Han Chinese slaves, some of them spoke the language of the minority, and it was through the exchange of interpreters that the two sides were able to communicate.

Hongdu is approachable, and looks like a big official, more than 300 slaves regard Hongdu as the highest commander of the Great Qingshui Division, and the slaves of various tribes have a good impression of Hongdu.

"Sir Hong! Good! "People from ethnic minorities give Hongdu a thumbs up.

The people of the ethnic minorities put on gray military uniforms and looked like people, but some people of the Northern Zou ethnic group refused to wear rubber shoes, preferring to go barefoot and hang two rubber shoes around their necks.

Hongdu couldn't cry or laugh, and bowed his head: "Well, you have to respect the customs of ethnic minorities, and that's fine." Hurry up and let Commander-in-Chief Li review. ”

After the Great Qingshui Division cleaned up the battlefield, the fleet sailed to Magong Port, and the fleet grew larger and larger, with six more fast sailing ships. Li Guolou is an official businessman, and he can't help but calculate and earn back his belongings for the Nanyang sailors. The country spent a lot of money to fight the war, and the cannon sounded "ten thousand taels of gold". However, a war made many people rich in war, and Hannagan, a Prussian in the fleet, was the direct beneficiary of this war, and the Krupp cannons and armor-piercing shells imported by the Qing Dynasty cost two million silver dollars, so that Hannagan could earn enough commissions.

Li Guolou has invested 10 million yuan in this war, and fighting a war is a logistical support capability, so that he is under huge financial pressure, and he is fighting with the Japanese to see who can't bear the financial deficit? He has the support of 30,000,000 compatriots and is full of confidence in the future.
