There is only one cannon on the small warship of the Marine battalion, and with a few guns on the pirate ship, it is obviously impossible to reach the pirate's lair on the cliff. Adou refused to fire back on the spot, instead ordering the Marine battalion's warships to retreat to a safer place, and then ordered the only hot air balloon on board to take off.

Dealing with the pirate's lair on the cliff, it was obviously better to use a hot air balloon than a warship, and Adou's order was agreed by all the soldiers and quickly executed.

The balloons were soon lifted into the air, and as the Marine Battalion's balloons approached the pirates' lair, the pirates began to circle. They had never seen anything like this flying in the sky.

From this moment the nightmare began, the soldiers of the Marine Battalion did not greet the pirates, and as soon as they reached the sky above the target, the fire oil and gunpowder jar were thrown down.

Loud explosions and fires began to burst into flames at the mouth of the cavern. The wounded pirates began to scream, and the frightened fleeing pirates let out ghost screams at the same time.

As soon as the pirate's shelling stopped, Adou immediately gave the order for the whole army to assault and lean towards the pirate's cliff. As the ship approached, it discovered a small natural harbor beneath the cliff.

There are still two pirate ships on board, and there seem to be terrified pirates hiding on board. Adou ordered the pirates to be dealt with, and the rest followed him to the mouth of the pirate's cave.

The fire had scorched the entire place, and the stone slabs on the surface were still exuding high temperatures. There were faint and some hot feet on it, and there was no longer a single Japanese warrior in sight at the entrance of the cave.

"Signal the balloons above them to fly directly above the cliff to see if there is another exit to the cave." Adou ordered the guards beside him.

"Yes, General!" After the guards gave up, they immediately picked up the flag and waved the hot air balloon in the air non-stop.

After the hot air balloon was ordered, it immediately lifted off into the air, and Adou left a few people to guard the entrance of the cave, and then led the others to rush into the cave **.

It is not as dark and dull as imagined, and the cave ** is very spacious and bright. And the ventilation is very good, and it doesn't look like it's been smoked at all.

"General, this cave must lead to the exit of other places, and it is estimated that those pirates have already escaped." Looking at the empty cave, the guards said to Adou.

"Anyway, since you're here, you have to find out. Now take a few brothers and follow them down, and remember not to start a fight with them, as soon as you find their tracks. Adou commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes, General!" Without saying a word, the guards immediately drank a few brothers and chased them down the depths of the cave.

"Listen, everybody, rummage through the whole cave for me, and bring everything useful back with you." Adou ordered loudly.

The soldiers immediately agreed, and then scattered in search of everything in the cave!

Adou sat down to rest on a stone bench in the hall of the cave, but was disturbed by the movement at the entrance of the cave, and saw two soldiers from the Marine Battalion escorting a thin young man to him.

The soldiers of the two marine battalions were very rude, and directly kicked people with their feet, kicking the thin young man to kneel in front of Adou. One of them bowed his hand and said, "General, we have found that this man understands our language. ”

"Oh!"

Adou suddenly became interested, and waved his hand to let the two soldiers of the Marine Battalion retreat, before he chuckled and said, "You are not from the Wa Kingdom?" ”

Judging from the appearance of this young man, he doesn't have the temperament of those widows at all, which is why Adou is kind to him.

The young man was clearly still frightened, as if he had been frightened. Facing Adou, who was full of murderous energy, he was very scared. But after hearing Adou's soothing tone, he calmed down a little.

Looking at the hesitant young man, Adou was not in a hurry this time, he waited for the young man's answer with a pleasant face.

The young man did not disappoint Adou, and after relieving himself, he responded in a low voice: "General, the villain is not a Japanese Kou, the villain is a Fujian native of the Ming Dynasty, just because he was captured by the Japanese Kou because he accompanied the ship. They saw that the villain knew the Japanese language, so they left the villain's life. ”

Adou nodded slowly: "Yes, it's good to know Japanese language." General Ben will not hide it from you, as long as you serve General Ben well in the future, I will ensure that you are safe and sound. Otherwise, be careful with your dog's life, you know? ”

The young man was so frightened that his body trembled, and he didn't dare to disobey at all, and even said: "If the general has any orders, please speak up, the villain must be loyal and dare not have the slightest disobedience." ”

Adou patted the young man's shoulder and said, "Very good, you kid is quite acquainted." ”

After complimenting him, Adou's face turned gloomy again, and he pointed to the young man and said, "Do you know the details of the pirates in this cave?" ”

The young man did not hesitate for a moment, and responded directly: "The villain knows something about them. ”

"Then tell General Ben everything you know about them, and don't let any deception, if General Ben finds out that you have any deception, he will definitely make you break your body into ten thousand pieces." Adou was slightly intimidated.

"The villain doesn't dare! The pirates here are actually ronin pirates, and they are extremely vicious. The young man opened his mouth and said.

"Ronin Pirate ......"

Adou was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect to step on the iron shoes and find nowhere to go, but it didn't take a little effort to get them. Knowing that the pirates here are the so-called ronin pirates, Adou was immediately relieved.

After a moment's pause, Adou continued to ask with a smile: "Then do you know where these ronin pirates came from?" ”

The young man didn't seem to understand the meaning of Adou's words, but he quickly reacted, and he responded urgently: "General, the villain understands these ronin pirates. ”

"Tell me about it." A cold light flashed in Adou's eyes, but he took it back in an instant.

"Actually, these ronin pirates are not real ronins, most of them are military men who escaped from the army. Because he committed something in the army, or in order to make a living, he was forced to become a ronin pirate. The young man responded earnestly.

"So, the Ronin Pirate has another identity, right?" Smart as Adou, he can see the reality at a glance.

"Yes, only a few of these ronins are real ronin, but most of them were induced by the officers and soldiers of Hiroshima. In addition to some of the officers and soldiers of Hiroshima Prefecture, there were also those prisoners. These people are very cruel, and when they encounter objects that can be robbed at sea, they often kill first and then rob, and never leave a mouth alive. The young man's body trembled as he spoke.
