How much gold and silver treasure should a Japanese pirate who has been active in the Goto archipelago for three generations have accumulated?

Huang Han's heart was moved, he couldn't make sure that he would get more from hitting a big pirate's lair than from looting a city!

Huang Han was very satisfied, and was really ready to give Shi Daxuan the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, promote him to be a captain, and give him the rank of military attaché.

He changed his title and said: "You stand up and reply, you don't kneel in the army, and you have to learn the etiquette of the 'Red Banner Army' in the future." ”

Shi Daxuan immediately hit the snake with the stick, and he said: "The lowly General Xie will take him in, and the lowly will definitely make a plan and personally lead the warship to participate in the battle to capture the Nine Ghosts' private port." ”

Huang Han said: "You are now temporarily staying in the command cabin to serve as a praise painting, if you make meritorious service, the official will not hesitate to reward." ”

Shi Daxuan knelt down and kowtowed again: "Don't reward the lowly position, I just ask the general to arrange for people to go to Anping Town, Quanzhou, Fujian Province to pick up the lowly family members to go to Funing Wei'an's house." ”

"No problem, this official will report to the Ministry of War to issue an order to transfer you to the Lushun Kouyu Battalion, and then arrange for Fujian officials to supervise the affairs of your family's small north, then Zheng Zhilong will not embarrass your family unless he wants to turn his face with the imperial court."

"General, I have cooperated with Zheng Zhilong for many years, and I know this person's temperament, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for an adult to prevent Zheng Zhilong from being a black hand behind his back."

"Don't worry, the official will first send someone to bring your letter to pick up your family, and the person who receives it will go through the motions and negotiate with the protection of the official army."

"The humble General Xie is sympathetic, and the humble will definitely do his best to give advice to defeat the nine ghosts."

A large number of student soldiers in the "Red Banner Army," including sailors and marines, are learning to shoot artillery and sail, and as long as there are two or three more years of practice, too many outstanding captains will come to the fore.

At this time, there is no shortage of good soldiers, and there is a shortage of senior captains with rich sailing experience and actual combat experience.

Leaving Shi Daxuan to serve, his brother Shi Dajing and the other eleven captains will naturally serve the "Red Banner Army", and they can be allowed to serve as the first mate before they can be fully trusted, and use their experience to give advice to the young captain.

When sailing really came to the time of the big thing, the harmony can basically be done, no one will play yin, and the experienced first mate can judge that the storm is about to meet and will not remain silent.

When fighting at sea, even if the opponent is a Eighteen Zhi pirates, there is no need to worry about the first mate defecting, and the artillery fire is not long-sighted, how can the first mate who is a pirate captain not know how many people can survive if it really causes his own warship to sink into the sea, will this small probability let himself be put on the table?

This is the characteristic of the sea, the possibility of a few people on a warship vainly trying to defect, escape, and rebel is too small, and the "Red Banner Army" has the righteousness of the imperial court, and gives the pirate captain who surrenders to Cheng a seventh-rank or sixth-rank official body.

When these pirates, who were born poor and fought for tomorrow on the sea, received the sixth- and seventh-grade official uniforms embroidered with Biao, their perception of the imperial court would be completely different, and there would be no problem in gradually gaining loyalty.

After all, there are not too many professional rebel households like Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and other natural thieves, and they can't snowball on the basis of being mixed up at sea without starving people everywhere.

Han people have family and country complexes, and being an official is the most desired of the vast majority of Han people, to be able to be a serious 800 imperial court naval attaché, and to serve a naval division with unparalleled force, who will be so lowly as to be a pirate again?

In the future, the families of the "Red Banner Army" will live in the "Tiger's Den City", and the families of the sailors will not be left out of the system, and their children will receive a loyal and patriotic education from an early age, and feel the collective strength of the "Red Banner Army".

Eighteen warships and armed merchant ships were added, and the speed of the fleet slowed down, and when Huang Han and Huang Yong came to converge, he discovered the situation again, which was two Western deck war ships swaggering and appearing in the clairvoyant mirror.

Shi Daxuan observed with a clairvoyant mirror and reported to Huang Han that it was the Dutch warships Udvoort and Venlo, the two ships were very different in size, and the displacement of the Oudwater was two or three times that of Venlo, and it was possible to reach 1,500 tons.

The Dutch relied on the guns of the ships to run rampant in the South China Sea and the East China Sea, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and the Eighteen Zhi have always regarded them as imaginary enemies, and every time there is a deck battle ship of the Dutch, they will follow and peep.

It is not a coincidence that Zheng Zhilong was able to sit on the top spot of the Asian pirates, but it is inseparable from his habits of being flexible, loving to think, loving to learn, and liking to study tactics.

There are many models of East India Company warships that have appeared in the South China Sea, including the Udvoort with a crew of 250 and the Venlo with a crew of 70.

The Oudwater and Venlo returned from the Wa Kingdom to transport the raw silk, tea, and silk they had purchased back to Amsterdam, and the goods on board were deerskins, copper, saltpeter, sulfur, etc., which were to be sold to the Fujian merchants of the Ming Dynasty.

Because the firepower of Asian warships was too weak, and the speed of the ships could not compare with the Western sailing ships of the same tonnage, the Dutch were more arrogant, and they were always looking for suitable prey when sailing on the sea.

Armed with more than 50 guns, the Udwater belonged to the East India Company's first-class warship, capable of reaching speeds of about five knots, and it traveled with the Venlo, which had a displacement of only 600 tons, in order to be able to rob the junk ships it encountered along the way.

Because the Venlo was only a little larger than the junk ships on the route, but the speed of the ship reached more than six knots, which was more than a section faster than the junk ships of the same size, although the Venlo was only twelve twelve pounds and two twenty-four gun pounds, and the guns were much more powerful than the junks.

The Udwater intercepted, the Venlo made a detour, and the two East India Company warships cooperated tacitly, and in recent years, a total of no less than 30 junk ships have been robbed.

On the way to the Wa Kingdom, they also captured three junk ships, bought them to the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom, and obtained more than 50,000 taels of silver with the goods.

Robbery while trading is the characteristic of the East India Company, whether it is the Dutch era or the British era, when encountering the Yellow Han who is familiar with these Western bandits, a black and black encounter will definitely start.

Moreover, after going to sea for more than ten days, I hit the boat of catching up with the reel, the No. 2 Fu ship, the Zhuyin ship, and the grass skimming boat, but I did not find the Western Galen ship to practice my hands.

At this time, two of the most advanced European warships of this era came, and did they not bring pillows when they were sleepy?

This battle can not only improve the combat skills of the "Red Banner Army" sailors, but also grab a European Galen ship-type war ship in the true sense of the word to study, how can you let it go?

Huang Han issued an order on the spot, and the whole army pressed to surround the enemy ship, and the red-haired devil must be completely annihilated to seize the behemoth.
