Chapter 331: Tiger Fury Can't Be Touched
On the wharf of the Jiang family's army and navy, a high shelf was erected, on which hung two prisoners fished from the sea, the captain of the third armed merchant ship, because this was the only way to offset the merits and demerits.
Jiang Feng stood under the shelf with a pale face, and it was inexplicable that he had lost two ships, and his conceited and strong sailor army was so vulnerable, his sailor army was composed of pirates and smugglers at sea, naturally the foundation was unstable, and most of the weapons and firearms he used were very different from the habits of these brave and ruthless bandits.
Therefore, he could only mobilize his own army to get on the ship, and it was impossible to run in the maturity of the past few years, and Zhao Sanshui was short of training on Jeju Island, and he was even more dizzy after being praised by Jiang Feng for the tribute money of the merchant ships plundering the sea, but this time he really suffered a bad result.
This defeat was only a loss of fur, and there was no loss of 400 soldiers and ships on Jeju Island, and after receiving the news from here, Jiang Jiajun's ships immediately sailed to Jeju Island with four ships of greater rank to replace the defense.
But the prestige, the prestige established on the sea by relying on the cannons of big ships, was actually offended by the other party in this way, but it was tantamount to a slap in the face.
Although the news spread slowly, everyone at sea was staring at Jiang Feng's reaction, Jiang Feng was very angry in his heart, after he left Dengzhou in North Korea, everything was to ask for stability, but he didn't expect to be directly bullied by someone.
Zhang Liang cursed loudly with red eyes there, the weapon in his hand kept hitting the ground and stones, the two captives were not hard-core people, Jiang Feng didn't say anything As long as you confess everything, I will give you a way to live, just said coldly there:
"If you tell everything, you can live happily!"
Although Jiang Jiajun is rarely tortured, but there is no shortage of such talents, Zhang Liang ordered his subordinates to put out the torture tools, the hot-tempered Zhang Liang wished that these two people were stubborn and stubborn, and now he was eager to give these people cramps and pull out their bones.
The two of them looked at the scene in the field, and they dared to have any backbone, and immediately confessed everything they knew, these two people knew a lot, because they were sent to carry out the ship that lured Jiang Feng on Jeju Island, and then killed people and seized the ship, which was also quite a test of the courage and martial arts of these thieves, so they were also the main force among the bandits, and they knew some things.
It's also unlucky to say, Jeju Island has been majestic for so long, Zhao Sanshui now only sends two ships out to collect money at a time, and the other two are parked in the simple port of Jeju Island, so that the four ships can be rotated, and the people are more relaxed, now there are agricultural officials and horses on Jeju Island, Zhao Sanshui felt troublesome and came out with the boat, the thieves have already faked here, and they can only take the risk of seizing the boat.
After hearing Jiang Feng's words, these two people hesitated for a moment and said their origins, both of them were pirates on the periphery of the Xia family, this answer did not surprise Jiang Feng too much, there are indeed not many forces on the sea that have enmity with Jiang Feng, even those merchants who come and go near Jeju Island, although they are dissatisfied with paying money, but they still have not reached the point of killing people and seizing ships.
The only one who has a blood feud with Jiang Feng is the Wako, and the Xia family and the Wako are already a huge force on the southern sea, and there are no few behemoths in the lawless sea, and they are humble to each other and make a fortune together.
In the news that Monk Li's fleet brought back, now the trade between Liuhengdao Shuangyu and Nanyang is not peaceful, and the activities of the Japanese are becoming more and more rampant.
Otherwise, there would be no merchant hiring Jiang Jiajun's armed ships to defend it, Jiang Feng sat there and was silent for a while, and then said to Zhang Liang beside him:
"Chop off the heads of those two men, put them in boxes, and entrust a merchant who is familiar with the Japanese to bring them to them."
Turning his head, he followed the instructions of Ajaya behind him and said:
"This afternoon is the beginning of preparations, the Shunfeng is going to sea."
Ajaya over there respectfully agreed, put his left hand on his chest and bowed back to prepare.
At the shelf where the prisoners were hung, two screams rang out......
In the inner fort of the Incheon fortress, officers at all levels were called into the council hall, and Jiang Feng was ready to ask Agaya to explain the goal of the fleet clearly.
Since it has been found out that this matter is the work of the Xia family, Jiang Feng is not ready to let this matter go, anyway, he promised Xia Cuiyu to take the Xia family back for him, and Jiang Feng knows that his team has left the inland of the Ming Dynasty, and now in Incheon, although everything is on the way, but after all, it is in danger, and there must be a perfect guarantee, originally thought that his fleet has strong firepower, and the ships that combine things with things can at least be said to be invincible at sea. But in this case of Jeju Island, the other party's two ships with no long-range firepower, actually relied on stratagem to get on the ship, and actually took all their two ships into their hands, if it weren't for the existence of the third ship and Jiang Feng's order to "destroy the ship" at the beginning, I'm afraid that the two ships would have been driven back by these daring pirates to study.
Now relying on the sea and the navy, if he can't rely on the navy, more than 10,000 soldiers and more than 200,000 households, what confidence do they have to live overseas, Jiang Feng is going to fight no matter what, in the council room, Aguya motioned to everyone to wait, because Monk Li has not yet rushed over.
Monk Li basically has nothing to do with the military in the Jiang family's army now, Jiang Feng has collected all the talents in Monk Li's fleet that can be used in the navy, that is, let Monk Li make a fortune, with Jiang Feng's protection, and an exclusive port, Monk Li's business is going smoothly, and he earns more than when he was a pirate, and it is quite majestic, he is naturally willing.
However, he also had the task of gathering information about the ports in various places, and of course there was nothing too difficult, but when each ship entered a new port for trade and transportation, there were always sailors and sailors who had to investigate the troops, hydrology and certain conditions of the local ports.
It can be said that the information of various ports on the sea is very complete in Monk Li, and Monk Li is very willing to engage in this work, for him he has been excluded from the navy, and he must be linked to other institutions of the Jiang Jiajun, you must know that the Jiang Jiajun is not short of businessmen now, if he is just free from this system, I am afraid that sooner or later he will be eliminated, but this kind of fortune may have greater opportunities for development in the future, and it is a fool not to hold it firmly.
Therefore, Monk Li did it quite carefully, and every time he came back, he specially found a special document to record what he saw and heard, and sent it to Jiang Feng and Liu Twelve, which made Jiang Feng quite satisfied with him, and even assigned him a craftsman who knew how to make drawings to assist.
The officers sitting in the council hall all looked serious, knowing that Jiang Feng's temper was not very good now, and they also felt angry in their hearts, when did Jiang Jiajun become something that everyone could bully?
There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and Monk Li entered the room with that bald head, and Agaya over there was just about to say something, but saw Monk Li kneeling down towards Jiang Feng, but his face was sad and angry, and after kowtowing on the ground a few times, he shouted loudly:
"Master Jiang, you want to administer justice to the fleet!"
Everyone present was stunned, thinking that when did Monk Li have such deep feelings for Jiang Jiajun's army, or even if it was contrived, this performance was too much.
Who would have thought that the next thing was to completely explode inside the house, it turned out that Monk Li had just run back from the dock, and his own fleet also entered the port today, but he didn't expect that when he went, it was ten ships, but six came back, and on the six ships that came back, there were several people who were injured.
It turned out that Monk Li's merchant ship was intercepted by pirates on the way to Luzon, and the Li family's ships are now relying on Jiang Feng's naval army is also very arrogant, plus there are nearly 100 men who dare to fight on their own ten ships, it would be good not to be pirates, and there are pirates who come to the door.
But when they met at sea and were intercepted, the other party also saw the flag of the Jiang family army hanging, but they didn't care at all and directly slashed and killed, the people of the ten boats were desperately resisting, or they were killed by dozens of people and robbed four boats, Monk Li's hands were years of hard work at sea.
The most unbearable thing is that these people directly declare:
"Now that the Jiang family is a lost dog, what can they be arrogant at sea......"
Those people of the Li family have been working hard at sea for many years, and their eyes are very poisonous, not to mention that these pirates do not hide it, these pirates are from the Xia family and the Japanese in Fujian.
Hearing Monk Li's narration, the generals in the room, whether it was land or navy, all scolded loudly, thinking about Jiang Feng's request for battle, but Jiang Feng, who was sitting in the middle, was still very calm, and asked:
"Lao Li, do you know where the Xia family and the widow's nest are?"
"My lord, they are in Damen Island and Luxi in Zhejiang."
Jiang Feng slowly stood up, and suddenly said to a guard beside him:
"Go and tell Madame, in three months, I will marry Xia Cuiyu, and the dowry will be ready!"
