The era of Mao Wenlong is gone, the town of Dongjiang is now in disarray, and Liu Xingzuo, who was able to return to the Ming Dynasty after suffering last spring, died in the battle in Guannei.

The red gang hated Liu Xingzuo very much, and actually hid his body into flesh, so Daming was not able to confirm Liu Xingzuo's death in time, and there were too many rumors that Liu Xingzuo had surrendered to Jiannu again.

Liu Xingzuo's brothers and old subordinates who stayed on Phi Island were coldly starved, and these murderers, who were already difficult to raise, were ready to move.

Under the instigation of Liu Xingzhi and Liu Xingpei, hundreds of Liao soldiers rebelled and seized Phi Island in one fell swoop, and then attacked the islands of Dongjiang Town.

In the end, the imperial court dispatched Denglai people to barely calm down, and the initiators of the Liu family brothers were all killed.

In addition, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Li Jiucheng and other former real power factions in Dongjiang Town defected to Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, so far the strength of Dongjiang Town has been greatly reduced.

Not long after Huanglong ascended to the throne, he had no prestige and no connections in the imperial court, so the food and salary deductions in Dongjiang Town were even more serious, and Dongjiang Town, which had been killing each other for a few months last year, is now surging with undercurrents, and many generals have two hearts.

Geng Zhongyu, the capital secretary stationed on Phi Dao, and middle-level military attachés such as Li Mei and Wang Yingyuan, who were stationed on Phi Island, conspired to defect to Jiannu.

Li Mei took the letter of surrender drawn by a dozen military attaches under Geng Zhongyu and took a boat through Zhenjiang Fort and went up the Yalu River to get in touch with Jiannu, and a rebellion was about to be staged again.

In early June of the fourth year of Chongzhen, with the hard work of the shipbuilders, three of the 15 rebuilt old lock ships in the dockyard of "Tiger's Den" City could be launched.

The displacement of 300 tons, 400 tons, and 500 tons of ships was one each, and several masters of the Longjiang Shipyard took dozens of experienced veteran sailors to sea trials.

In order to increase the opportunities for practice, Huang Yong, the commander in chief of the "Red Banner Army" Marine Battalion, who had taken up his post as a new officer, personally took the three Marine Corps of the General Flag Naval Division to go to sea on these three new ships equipped with cast steel cannons made by Huang only at the bow and stern.

They were going to Phi Dao to deliver a letter from Huang Han to Huang Long, the chief military officer of Dongjiang Town.

How about the "Red Banner Army"? Huang Long had already heard like thunder, he met with Huang Yong and read the letter, and learned that the chief general of the "Red Banner Army" was going to visit Phi Dao in person after a while, and felt very face-saving.

When Huang Yong left Phi Island and sailed back, he found a merchant ship, and saw the Ming army flag from a distance, and Yang Fan actually accelerated and fled, so suspicious, what is the situation? Huang Yong also wanted to test the speed of the new ship? Can you catch up with the No. 3 fortune ship at sea?

The three new warships of the "Red Banner Army" Navy Division were originally chasing for the sake of pursuit, but it was later discovered that dozens of people on the fleeing merchant ship were in a panic, and when the old lock ship with a minimum displacement of 300 tons approached, several six-pounder guns on board were actually fired.

The old lock ship, which had a twelve-pounder gun in the bow and stern, was now attacked by a merchant ship on its own initiative, and the old artillerymen on board with more than twenty young gunner apprentices would be polite.

Huang's twelve-pounder guns were airtight and had twice the range of six-pounder guns on merchant ships.

The fleeing merchant ships were hit four or five times in a row, the sailors and gunners on board were killed and wounded a dozen times, and the mainsail was knocked down.

Under the watchful eye of the sailor Marine boy with flintlock pistols, the sailors and gunners of the captured merchant ship came to the deck and knelt.

No wonder the ship escaped, it turned out that there were more than a dozen traitors with money rat tails on board, and there were actually three real slaves among them.

The reason why the ship chose to surrender was because one of the three real slaves was killed on the spot by artillery fire, one was seriously injured and was about to die, and the remaining slaves were smashed by the broken auxiliary mast.

The captain of this merchant ship is a Han surnamed Shen from Laizhou, and he often travels back and forth between North Korea, Dongjiang Town, and Siwei in the southeast of Liaoning for smuggling, because Korean ginseng, Dongzhu, mink, sea cucumber and other Liaodong specialties are all sought-after goods in Beijing.

The wars of all dynasties and dynasties could not put an end to the smuggling trade, because with the grain embargo and the economic blockade, the material shortage was artificially created, and the opportunity to obtain huge profits appeared, and the powerful and powerful officials and businessmen with connections were naturally the direct beneficiaries of the warring sides to make money.

The captain is the son of the Shen family of the Laizhou family, and the Shen family has Jinshi and the first official in Beijing, and he also has a strong background in Denglai Sailor.

This straw skimming ship is also the type of No. 3 Fu ship, with a length of 36 meters, a width of 11 meters, a displacement of about 300 tons, and is equipped with six six-pound copper-body ironcore guns.

This smuggling ship is well-maintained, and there are usually 41 sailors and gunners below the captain, and there is basically no ship of similar size to this grass skimming ship that can catch up with it in the Liaohai Sea.

If a small ship pursues after it, the grass skimming ship has to firing a few cannons symbolically, which can basically scare off the Ming army's sailors who are trying to eat the black and eat the black.

In the eyes of smugglers, there are no national interests, no enemies, only business partners, the Shen family has shops in Denglai and even in Jingshi, and there are also partners of the level of Jiannu Gushan Ezhen in Liaodong.

The Ming Dynasty imposed an economic blockade on the Houjin and severely cracked down on smuggling, while the Houjin did the opposite, and they welcomed any Han merchants who dared to trade in Liaodong, and would not rob and provide convenient protection.

These Han merchants traveled back and forth to Liaodong, so that Jiannu obtained grain, sold Korean ginseng, Dongzhu, leather goods and other specialties, and also collected a lot of information about the Ming Dynasty, and many spies successfully lurked as merchants.

This time, the smuggling ship of the Shen family traded grain, purchased the return goods, and accepted the task of building slaves when they returned, and sent three envoys and a dozen Han Chinese to Phi Island and handed them over to Geng Zhongyu, the capital secretary.

As soon as they approached the waters of Phi Dao, they found three strange ships with the flag of the Ming Sailor flying high, and each of them was no smaller than their own No. 3 lucky boat.

Captain Shen thought that there should be no trouble, and immediately issued an order to turn the rudder and deviate from the course to avoid it, it stands to reason that he was already very careful, and he hid when he saw the Ming Navy Naval Division warship from a distance, and there was no hope that he would have a relationship in the Denglai Naval Division.

Who knew that there were more than 30 clairvoyants on the three veterans led by Huang Yong, and both sailors and sailors were willing to stand on the bow of the ship and look into the distance with binoculars, so too many pairs of eyes saw the evasive grass skimming boat.

In order to prove that the speed of the old lock ship was faster than that of a Fu ship of the same size, Huang Yong and the master of the Longjiang Shipyard who participated in the trial voyage waved the flag and ordered the three ships to pursue at full speed with full sail.

In this way, he caught the traitor by mistake and also got the third-level prime-aged real slave capture, the Jiannu who was smashed by the mast and broke his leg saw that he was surrounded by three big war ships of the Ming army, and when the captain decided to surrender, he stabbed himself to death in order to avoid being tortured by the Ming army.
