Chapter 466: Looking for Death

The sails of the warship, sailing on the river like a galloping horse, when the Jinyi guard was rampant in the city, often fast horses galloped through the downtown area, pedestrians were unable to dodge, people turned over on their backs, and became a mess.

The sailors on the canal were similar to this one, regardless of the other ships sailing on the river, rushed straight over, and many small ships were directly overturned, and the news spread rapidly, and all the ships on the way of the war ships dodged, and the speed of the ships became faster and faster.

The more you get to the vicinity of Matsue, the waterways become wider, but they are also more and more congested, because it is also an important port for merchant ships to trade at sea or to load and unload goods.

The chasing ships couldn't get up fast, and Jiang Feng's ships also had no speed, according to the estimation of the generals of the sailors, they should catch up at dawn the next day.

The sun has not yet risen, Xu Quan, who is sitting on the bow of the boat, has already smelled the fishy smell of the sea breeze, it seems that he is about to reach the mouth of Songjiang, and the horse team and soldiers have been mobilized on land.

Thinking of this, Xu Quan became a little nervous, as long as he killed Jiang Feng at sea, he and his uncle Xu Tianbiao could get rid of this embarrassing state at this time, and be a Jinyi Wei commander with real power, and govern the Jinyi Wei affairs of the four southern provinces.

However, if this subsequent slaughter had the support of Sima Tai, the head of the household department, and the political group behind him, as well as the full cooperation of the Thirteen Chamber of Commerce, it might have been even better than before.

Jiang Feng's father and Xu Tianbiao's colleagues save their lives, and the large amount of silver every year is far inferior to the glory and wealth of the Ming Dynasty in the eyes of the Xu family's uncles and nephews.

On the warship where Xu Quan was, the shipwrights were all on duty there in turn, so as to maintain the highest speed at night, and behind them there were sixteen large ships of 300 materials, all full of sails, with cannons on the bow, which was a sharp weapon for water warfare.

After the darkest time passed, the sky gradually brightened, and even with the rampage of the warships, they had to slow down, because there were already many ships of considerable tonnage, one was too slow to dodge, and the other was collided, and it was not necessarily who broke whom.

"Right ahead!!"

A man who climbed on the mast shouted, the people on the entire fleet were busy, Xu Quan walked to the high place in two steps, and looked into the distance with his hand covering the pergola, sure enough, it was the eight boats mentioned by the Cao Gang, which were slowly heading outside. That's the goal.

"Hurry, hurry!"

Xu Quan shouted loudly, the target was in front of him, so he had to be excited, the head of the person in front of him was the glory and wealth of their uncle and nephew for the rest of their lives, how could they not catch it. The boss of the boat on the side ignored this speeding sentence, and shouted back there:

"There are big boats everywhere on this water, how do you want me to get up quickly, if it crashes, we all have to fall into the water!"

Hearing this, Xu Quan wanted to draw his knife but held back, this boat is the ship of the sailor, Jinyiwei is just borrowing, there is no right to command at all, but the boss of this boat is also the identity of a hundred households, and he is not afraid of him at all, but the boat boss is excited to see him

, I don't want things to be too stiff, Yuanchang said:

"This is about to enter the sea, he can't get rid of us, and he will soon catch up when the time comes, our sails are big, and we are faster at sea!"

Hearing this, the men on the boat began to prepare their weapons, and some gunners went to the artillery, loaded their charges, and waited for firing, and some shouted at the boats crowded on the river:

"Catch the thief and get the boat out of the way!!"

"The Thirteen Chambers of Commerce are doing things, hurry up and get out of the way."

What made these officers and soldiers angry was that the warriors of the Thirteen Chamber of Commerce were obviously more effective than them, and the ships that were originally slow to move were finally moving faster.

The eight ships in front of him were already about to go to sea, Xu Quan calculated the time and speed, even if he was at sea, it was relatively easy to catch up, and he felt a little happy in his heart, looking at the several ships in front of him, he couldn't help but shout loudly:

"Master Jiang, we haven't seen each other for a long time!!"

Holding his hands and sending the voice out, he is also a person who practices martial arts, he is very angry, and the loud voice is far away in the quiet morning, and the eight boats in front of him obviously heard it, and can see a person walking to the stern, looking at this person's figure and bearing, it is the impression of Jiang Feng back then.

Jiang Feng was on the boat, naturally knowing what the murderous warship behind him was about, compared to Deng Min, who was already shrunk into a ball of fright, everyone in Huazhou and Tang Xuan were calm Yichang, Jiang Feng stood up and shouted back with a smile:

"Lord Xu, but I didn't expect to see you here, your uncle is in good health!"

The two sides shouted hypocritically here, but the speed of the ship was as fast as possible, and it was about to reach the place where it went to sea, the ship was already quite sparse, and the boat behind was already full of sails, and the speed was slowly raised, Jiang Feng smiled and looked at the warship of the Daming Naval Division in the distance, and there was a person standing on the ship at the front, although the distance between them was not clear to see the other party's appearance, but it was Xu Quan, the head of the Dongchang that he saw in the Beijing Division at that time.

When I was in Beijing, if I didn't have the help of Xu's uncle and nephew, there were many things that were really inconvenient, since the opening of Huifeng Building, I didn't treat their uncles and nephews badly, but I haven't seen it for ten years, and people's hearts have changed like this.

The other party just wants his own head, maybe he can exchange it for glory and wealth in Daming.

There are no shoals off the coast of Matsue, so as soon as you enter the sea, you can see many ships anchoring outside that cannot enter the inland river.

There was a muffled sound of "boom", and on the sea fifty or sixty steps away from Jiang Feng, there was a considerable splash, and the eight boats where Jiang Feng was located, the necks of the boatmen were all on the knife frame of Jiang Feng's guards, although the boatmen were frightened, but the chill on their necks was the nearest danger.

No matter how scared they were, they had to sail the ship according to their orders, and the direction of the predetermined wind, Xu Quan turned around and slashed down the gunner in front of the artillery with one palm, and shouted angrily there:

"It's so far away, there is a ball to fire the cannon, pass the order, all ships listen to my order to shoot arrows and open cannons, if there is any unauthorized action, my Jinyiwei's knife will also eat blood!!"

Xu Quan turned his head to look at the eight boats over there, and couldn't help but laugh fiercely, getting closer and closer.

I don't know if Jiang Feng's boatmen are panicked, anyway, they are a little panicked and sailed to the place where several large ships are moored, in recent years, the sea trade has flourished, and the ships that have come to Daming to do business are getting bigger and bigger, and such multi-sail Western giant ships are not uncommon.

The eight boats seemed to have arrived at the ship only to find that they wanted to turn around, in the middle of the sea, even if it was offshore, the force of the current was extremely great, and the hurried U-turn, this kind of narrow river boat could not do it at all, and seeing the warships behind them getting closer and closer, these eight ships only turned sideways.

Xu Quan shouted loudly:

"Daming is good, my uncle wants to invite Master Jiang to Nanjing as a guest, so don't be in a hurry to leave!"

Seeing that they were about to enter the range of the guns and bows and arrows of their own ships, there was no way ahead, and even if they bypassed these ships, there would be no time. Xu Quan was very proud, and after saying this, he couldn't help but laugh, and those people from the Thirteen Chambers of Commerce were even more gearing up, ready to do it there.

However, Jiang Feng's performance was even more unexpected, as soon as Xu Quan's words were finished, he shouted back:

"I haven't seen Uncle Ling for many years, I still have a small gift here, help me bring it to Nanjing, I'm sorry for you!"

As soon as the words fell, all the expressions of the people who were about to laugh at Jiang Feng froze on their faces, and several large sea ships blocking Jiang Feng's way were facing this side of the inland river, and suddenly many baffles were opened on the hulls, and the black muzzles of the guns stretched out, exuding the breath of death.

The entire estuary suddenly trembled, hundreds of shells of different weights whistling and flying towards the more than a dozen Ming warships that were surrounding, and the warships of the naval division were all very close, and they had not had time to start the formation, and the first six ships suffered the most damage.

As soon as the shelling stopped, there were no more people standing on the board of the boats, and Xu Quan, who was standing in the bow of the ship, was torn to pieces by the high-speed flying shells.

The people on the boat behind are all stupid there, aren't they trying to catch a tricky bandit leader? How can there be such firepower, but this is not the time to think about this matter, hurry up, but at sea, there are companion ships by your side, how can you run fast.

Haven't done anything yet, the second round of shelling is coming again, and there is a sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling, the people of Daming have not even experienced the situation of so many artillery firing at the same time, such a close distance, the artillery on the sailor ship does not even have the possibility of firing back, and even the people and the ship are sparse.

In fact, there was no need for a third round of shelling, the warships of the Ming Dynasty on the sea were all sunk, and the other ships in the inland river were desperately rowing inside, the farther away from the battlefield outside, the better......

Although he had already left the position where the cannon was fired as much as possible, Jiang Feng's ears were still buzzing, and looking at the Daming land not far away, he said in a low voice:

"I'll be back for sure!"
