Chapter 648: Xu Hai's officials and thieves gathered

The battleships lined up in a line opened fire constantly, although the power of this old-fashioned solid cannonball was not too great, but against those pirates and pirates on the shore who had no armor to protect them, it was really fatal, wounded, and a single shot could blast a line of blood through the dense crowd.

Hearing the sound of artillery in front, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang, who were chasing behind, hurriedly ordered the Ming army to stop rushing and wait for the outpost scouts to come back after putting up a defensive formation.

"Report!" After a short time, several cavalrymen who had gone to reconnoiter rushed back, and they shouted with surprised smiles: "General, Xu Hai and other pirates, I don't know why all the ships have been taken away, and now all the pirates are blocked on the shore. ”

"What?" Yu Dayou looked at Qi Jiguang, who was also confused, and asked, "What's going on with that fierce cannon?" ”

"Hello to the two adults. At this moment, dozens of warships were shelling Xu Hai and other Japanese pirates on the shore, judging from the Shuanglong banner hoisted on the ship, they should be another powerful fleet belonging to Li Nanhai's pirate group. ”

"Li Nan?" Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou led troops to suppress bandits along the coast, and they had heard the name of this pirate during this time, but Li Nan's pirate group never went ashore to plunder, so there was less news about him.

Qi Jiguang asked suspiciously: "General Yu, do you think this is the pirates fighting each other in order to compete for interests?" ”

"This... I don't know, but ......" Yu Dayou looked at the front of the cannon and said viciously: "But now that Xu Hai and those Japanese robbers have no way to escape, then let's go forward and kill them all!" ”

Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou discussed this kung fu, and there were already pirates and pirates who fled in this direction, but in the face of the Ming army that was waiting for them, they were all killed by fire guns and bows and arrows.

"General Qi, you take the headquarters to take charge of the left flank, and I will lead the troops to outflank the middle and right flanks, what do you think?"

"Good!" Qi Jiguang said proudly: "I promise that I will never let any of the widows escape!" ”

After getting Qi Jiguang's promise, Yu Dayou was full of pride and laughed: "The whole army will attack and kill all the Japanese invaders!" ”

"Kill all the pirates!" The morale-boosting Ming soldiers also chanted in unison.

The many Japanese robbers led by Xu Hai had no way to escape, and they had to endure dozens of artillery attacks, and the back road was also blocked by the Yu family army and the Qi family army, so what happened next was not a battle, but a massacre.

The Ming army in the firearms, bows and arrows at once, there are occasionally tiger squatting cannons in the military formation roaring sound, this kind of Ming army's unique artillery can fire dense lead bullets, for the unprotected Japanese robbers, it is the most terrifying existence.

Many of the desperate Japanese robbers chose to jump into the sea to escape, but Li Nan had already issued a kill order, so the zombie sailors on the battleship did not hesitate to pick up firearms and bows and arrows to shoot at them, and the blood slowly stained this sea area.

Seeing this situation, Xu Hai finally chose to surrender to the Ming army, but when Qi Jiguang was still hesitating, Yu Dayou, who was jealous and hateful, and had an upright temperament, also refused to surrender to these evil widows like Li Nan's choice.

The work of killing people was not only laborious, but also extremely time-consuming, and the soldiers belonging to the three parties fought until the sun was in the west, and finally ended this battle that can be recorded in history.

Stepping on the land turned into a red quagmire by blood, looking at the corpses of dead pirates and pirates around them, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang came to the beach.

At this time, more than thirty warships were slowly retreating, leaving only the flagship of Li Nan's Sea King.

Seeing these two generals worthy of the admiration of the Chinese people, Li Nan stood at the bow of the boat and clenched his fists and said: "General Yu, General Qi, I have heard the names of the two for a long time, Li Nan is polite!" ”

Yu Dayou looked at Li Nan, who was tall and sturdy, with a handsome face, and exuded a unique temperament, and only after half a sound did he ask, "Li Nan, why are you doing this?" ”

Hearing Yu Dayou's question, Qi Jiguang also listened attentively, to be honest, he was also very curious about Li Nan's actions.

"Huh." Li Nan smiled and said: "Although I, Li, am a pirate, I still remember where my motherland is, and I haven't forgotten my ancestors, so my people have never harassed my compatriots in the Ming Dynasty." I also deeply hated Xu Hai and other beasts who ate inside and outside and led the Japanese people to harm the people, and I couldn't get rid of them, so I led the fleet here to help the two generals. ”

Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang nodded frequently when Li Nan said this, and they had indeed never heard of Li Nanhai's pirate group doing evil, so the two of them had a much better impression of them.

Yu Dayou looked at Li Nan, and immediately persuaded loudly: "Li Nan, although you have gone astray, your conscience is still clear. If you go back with me, with your actions today, this general promises to be the one you seek! ”

"What General Yu said is also what I want to say." Qi Jiguang also spoke.

"Hehehe, thank you for the kindness of the two generals in advance." Li Nan looked at the direction of the land and said affectionately: "But what I Li Nan loves, loyals, and protects is the country of China, not the Emperor of the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty, so forgive me for living up to the good intentions of the two." ”

"Alas!" Yu Dayou said regretfully: "In this way, from now on, you are still thieves, we are still soldiers, it seems that we will meet on the battlefield sooner or later!" ”

"Not really." Li Nan smiled: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to meet in the future." ”

Qi Jiguang asked suspiciously: "This is reconciliation?" ”

Li Nan said loudly: "The rest of Wang Zhi's troops have been wiped out by me, and the Japanese kingdom of Kyushu has also been occupied by me with my people, and today the two generals have exterminated Xu Hai and others. Most of the pirates and pirates have been eliminated, and I will deal with other small groups of pirates next, and I can assure you that as long as I, Li Nan, are still here, there will be no more pirates and pirates along the coast of Daming, and the people can enjoy a peaceful and peaceful life. ”

"What? You actually captured the Japanese kingdom of Kyushu? Hearing this, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang were shocked.

After trying to digest the news that Li Nan said, Qi Jiguang noticed one of the key points, "Li Nan, you are a pirate leader, if you don't rely on looting, then how will you live in the future, how will you make your subordinates obey?" ”

"General Qi is too worried, in fact, as a pirate, relying on raiding can't bring much income at all, and ocean trade is the most profitable and long-term means of livelihood."

"That's a mistake!" Yu Dayou retorted: "My Ming Dynasty has banned the sea, and if you do this, you are violating the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and the court will not be compatible!" ”

"Hahaha......"

Hearing Yu Dayou's words, Li Nan couldn't help but laugh and said, "General Yu, there are many things that can't be forbidden. Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, hated corrupt officials the most, and the "Imperial Decree" stipulated that "anyone who embezzled more than 60 taels of silver" was shown to the public, and still peeled the skin and grass', and killed 150,000 officials during his reign, which was the most cruel and ruthless means in all dynasties, but the corrupt officials of the Ming Dynasty were extinct? ”

Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang originally heard Li Nan talk about Taizu's name, and they were about to stop drinking, but when they heard it, they thought of the things they had experienced in the DPRK and China over the years, and they were silent for a while.

"No one can ban corrupt officials, and neither can overseas trade, because everyone is profitable." Thinking of the next historical process of the Ming and Qing dynasties, Li Nan sighed: "Even if you don't want to trade, sooner or later someone will force you to trade, but now you shouldn't understand this." ”

These two generals of the Ming Dynasty naturally did not know about the tragic incident of the Western powers using cannons to open the gates of China in later generations, but after some conversation, at least they knew that Li Nan was not a vicious pirate leader.

Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Qi Jiguang was also a little worried that the three of them would be in contact for too long and would be troubled by Jinyiwei, so he arched his hand and said: "The matter of the forbidden sea is not something that our generals can talk about, I only hope that you can follow today's words and not endanger the Ming Territory in the future." ”

Seeing Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang today, Li Nan was also satisfied, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "I will remember and do the same, those two generals, let's leave it at that." ”
