Chapter 700: Under the Broadside Battle

Zheng Zhibao didn't expect Zheng Sen to be on the boat, and he was stunned for a while.

Didn't he understand that opening the sea was detrimental to the interests of the Zheng family? He probably knew, but he did it anyway, isn't that a loss of money?

In fact, Zheng Sen is not entirely based on the passion in his heart, he also has some opinions on the current situation, he is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, which is actually a good thing for the Zheng family.

He felt that the Zheng family was too greedy, and it was not good for the Zheng family to drag Da Ming to death if they wanted so much money.

If the Zheng family supports the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Dynasty can continue, and the status of the Zheng family can continue to be maintained, it is a matter of loyalty and filial piety.

If the Ming Dynasty is over, will the Manchu Qing in the north be able to watch the Zheng family get tens of millions of taels of silver every year? Obviously it can't be, it must be eliminated quickly!

Besides, Gao Jingzhong's Western Wei Kingdom, if he wins the world, the Zheng family is not the henchmen of the Western Wei, and the Western Wei Dynasty cannot tolerate it, and the Zheng family will continue to exist, and it will definitely be exterminated.

The Zheng family and the Ming Dynasty are actually a relationship of both prosperity and loss, Zheng Sen feels that the Zheng family will give up part of their interests, let the imperial court enrich the treasury, and make a few million taels less, what does it matter, why must the imperial court be forced to a dead end, and everyone will be finished together?

In fact, even if the imperial court opens the sea, with the strength of the Zheng family, they can still obtain a huge amount of wealth by engaging in normal trade, why do they have to be so greedy?

If the skin does not have hair, will it be attached? It's a pity that the Zheng family, as well as the maritime merchants in eastern Zhejiang, and the gentry in Jiangnan don't understand, they only focus on their own interests, and in the end they will inevitably collapse the imperial court, and then they will be finished.

Zheng Zhibao obviously didn't understand Zheng Sen, and when he didn't know how to deal with his eldest nephew, the Ming army Fu Ship had already joined the pirate ship.

At this time, on the pirate ship, more than a dozen flying claws crossed the gap between the two ships, hooked the side and guard of the lucky ship, and a flying claw happened to hook the shoulder of a Ming army gunner, and the soldier on the pirate ship pulled hard, and the flying claw hooked into the flesh of the soldier, dragged him to the side of the ship, and fell into the sea, but was immediately dragged up again, and finally hung on the string of the pirate ship, which hurt him in mid-air, struggling with his hands and feet, and letting out a heart-rending howl.

At this time, with the force of the flying claws, the pirate ship quickly approached the Fu ship, and the shipstrings collided with a "bang", and the Ming army, who was suspended by the flying hook, was suddenly squeezed into a meat pie.

At the moment when the strings of the ship touched, Gao Yiqi on the deck shouted, "Kill!" ”

On the starboard side of the Fufu, more than a dozen Ming soldiers suddenly stood up, raised their spears and stabbed them to death, stabbing a Japanese samurai who was wielding a Japanese sword and wanted to jump onto the Fufu.

In an instant, the spears on the side of the ship's strings were criss-crossed, and the pirates were all brave and abnormal, but they liked to fight on their own, but the Ming army cooperated to stab the spear, then retract the spear, and then stab it again.

The sharp spear, extremely sharp, pierced the pirate's body without hindrance, and when it was pulled out, it brought up clouds of blood mist.

A North Korean was stabbed in the throat with a spear, and immediately threw away his weapon, covered his bleeding throat with both hands, and fell to the ground on his back, red blood left between his fingers, and the deck was soaked with blood and became slippery, and the blood fell down the gap and fell into the cabin drop by drop.

The spears of the two sides exchanged spears, the personnel fell to the ground one after another, and the sound of killing on the deck shook the sky at the same time, and the pirate on the pirate ship, armed with various weapons, desperately rushed to the lucky ship.

"Bang" was another loud bang, the hull shook violently, and the five pirate warships of the second echelon had already rushed over, and a sea ship knocked the fortune ship to the left, and the ship creaked, but soon fell back again.

As soon as the ship collided, a Japanese warrior brandished a Japanese sword and jumped on the lucky boat, which was as fast as lightning and split a Ming soldier in half in an instant.

Seeing this, Zheng Sen, who had stabilized his figure, stretched out his bow and set up an arrow, pulled the bow into a full circle, and a sharp arrow shot and was split by the samurai, and the samurai was immediately furious, "Baga! ”

However, before he could make the next move, a second arrow "swished" at him, striking him in the chest, and the samurai was shot backwards, his body hit the strings of the ship, and he threw his head back to the pirate ship, the clogs on his feet thrown far away.

Zheng Sen fired several arrows in a row and shot a few more people, but he found that Haikou couldn't finish killing at all, and the continuous opening of the bow also made his arm numb, and he was almost out of strength.

The Ming army had only 200 people, while the Haikou had nearly 1,000 people, among whom there were many fierce Japanese pirates.

In a hurry, Zheng Sen looked around and found nine pirate ships, two of which were paralyzed behind, getting farther and farther away from them, and the other seven, two of which were cruising, and the other five had already been connected.

The pirates on the pirate ship are desperately rushing towards the ship, and there are already pirates jumping on the lucky ship.

At this time, Zheng Sen suddenly looked at the two pirate ships that were being pulled away, they were because they were bombarded by artillery, smashed their masts, slowly slowed down, and were left behind.

Zheng Sen suddenly shouted, "Gao Yi, use rockets to burn their sails and cut off hooks and ropes with knives!" ”

Gao Yiyan slashed a Haikou to death with a knife, and when he heard the words, he reacted and hurriedly beckoned: "Shoot the sail with a rocket!" ”

The Wei army on the deck hurriedly opened his bow and arrows, and several rockets "swished" like pirate ships, and immediately ignited the sails.

The Ming army in Wangdou hurriedly hung the flag and gave the order, but before the flag was hung, he was hit in the chest by a Japanese iron gunner, and he fell directly from Wangdou, and his body smashed heavily on the deck.

"Slash the claws! Swing the rudder to the left! Zheng Sen saw that the sails of the pirate ship were ignited, and he rushed to the edge of the fence and shouted urgently.

The sailors on the Fu ship reacted and drew their swords one after another, and a small flag ran to the side of the ship, drew out the Miao knife, and slashed continuously, and a straight rope was cut off in an instant.

The rudder of the ship was turned, and at the moment when the rope was cut, the fortune ship and the pirate ship immediately formed a tearing force, and the tight string of the ship instantly opened a gap.

The pirates on the pirate ship, seeing that the Ming army suddenly cut the rope, the Japanese people holding iron cannons, immediately lit the fire rope, rushed to the side of the ship's strings, and shot with their guns, and in a burst of "bang, bang" gunshots, the Ming soldiers on the side of the ship were shot one after another.

The small flag holding the knife cut two ropes in a row, and was about to raise the knife to cut again, but a projectile hit his chest, and the small flag was planted in the sea, Gao Yitong stepped forward to cut the last rope, and the lucky ship was immediately separated from the two pirate ships.

"Left swing rudder! Turn to the northwest and rush out! Zheng Sen gave the order without hesitation.

The sea breeze blew the sails, and the fortune ship got rid of the two pirate ships, and the ship sailed with the wind, and the speed immediately increased, and the sails of the pirate ship were already on fire.

The other two lucky ships, although they didn't see the command flag, saw the sails of the pirate ship on fire, and they also reacted one after another.

On the Fu ship, the fight continued, Gao Yitong stabbed a pirate to death with a knife, pushed him to the side of the ship, pulled out his war knife violently, and kicked the pirate off the Fu ship.

After separating from the pirate ship, the pirates who boarded the Fukubune were in a weak position and were gradually cleaned up, but at this moment, a cruising pirate ship blocked the way of the Fufune, but the Fufune did not change direction, and the bow of the ship hit the bow of the pirate ship directly, tilting the pirate ship and turning a right-angle turn in place.

The soldiers on both ships fell down in pieces, and by the time they stood up, the ships had already distanced themselves, and the pirates were just about to throw their hooks when firearms came from the opposite side, knocking the pirates down.

The Fu ship rushed through the blockade, the sail was bulging, and immediately broke away in the northwest direction, and the two Fu ships behind, one followed the breakthrough, and the sail of the other was ignited by the pirates who reacted, and the speed gradually slowed down, and was besieged by the pirates.

On the pirate's flagship, the pirate leader pointed to the two escaped lucky ships, and suddenly said urgently: "Fifth master, continue the pursuit, they can't run!" ”

Zheng Zhibao put down the clairvoyant mirror, but said with a smile: "It is worthy of our Zheng family's species!" After speaking, he turned his head to the leader and said, "Forget it, don't chase it!" ”

The leader of the Haikou was a little stunned on his face, and said in his heart: "The Zheng family's species, what do you mean, entertain us, and use Lao Tzu's people to train your Zheng family's people?" ”

A day later, off the coast of Shandong, Gao Yitong pointed to the coastline in the distance and asked, "General, where are we going?" ”

Zheng Sen said: "We have deviated from the route, and now we should be close to Shandong!" ”

"It was actually blown to Shandong?" Gao Yiqi was surprised for a while, and then said: "Doesn't this mean that the sailor can actually attack Shandong directly?" ”

Zheng Sen was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "If the conditions permit, it's no problem in the distance~"
