Chapter 338: Kill Penghu

Huang Sheng was not polite, in addition to himself and Li Guozhu's warships and cargo ships, he also brought all the ships captured by Da Zheng Yiguan, and the current fleet has more than 400 sea ships. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The warships were added to the No. 2 Fu class, 27 grass skimming ships, and more than 30 No. 4 and No. 5 Fu ships.

Of course, the sailors and gunners were mainly based on the Huang family and horses, supplementing the more than 300 Fujian sailors and Ming troops who had been captured by Zheng Yiguan, and more than 500 fishermen who had been captured when creating a shipless zone at sea were also selected to stay in the army to serve.

No one is unwilling to stay and follow the Huang family's private soldiers, because the Huang family's family will have no food and clothing. Soon, the families of these people will be concentrated in the center of the left, and when the fleet returns, they will all be taken to Daishan Island for resettlement.

More than 1,000 of the pirate captives were selected to stay in the army and not serve in the army. They had to work as a handyman for a while and gain trust before they could become sailors and gunners.

Ye Chengjing finally boarded Lord Huang's "Liaodong", this insightful son has long been convinced by Lord Huang, such a huge fleet, such a sharp warship, it seems that it is easy to win the king of a small country in the South Seas!

This kid has a pursuit, and wants to find an opportunity to test Lord Huang's tone, if Lord Huang establishes a country overseas, wouldn't he be a minister of the dragon?

Huang Sheng is not one of those moral gentlemen who has been dogmatized by Confucianism, and the collective action of such a large fleet is unavoidable, and of course the interests must be maximized.

Robbing pirates is a must, and if you get one more warship, you will increase your strength, and pirates will have less strength, and this is exactly what happens.

Now that thousands of pirate prisoners of war have been captured, the lairs of nearby pirates are under control.

Huang Sheng is ready to run all the way to grab all the way, but the pirates who fled from the wind don't look for it, and there is no satellite positioning in such a large South China Sea, and there is no aircraft reconnaissance, where can I find it? Those who remain in the nest will not be polite to them.

Huang Sheng has leading insight and has fought pirates several times, so he can be said to have a lot of experience.

Pirates can't be floating on the sea all day long, they always have to go back to their lair, all pirates have a home port, and most of them are cunning rabbits, and there will be hidden shelters that may only be known to a few henchmen.

Huang Sheng had no way of knowing all the pirate dens, but after interrogating Zheng Yiguan's thousands of captives, and through mass movements, the nearby pirate dens had already been known by the Huang family.

The next step is to fight the lion and the rabbit, plough all the way to the court and sweep the hole, and I don't know that Zheng Yiguan did not succeed in escaping back to the Dayuan Xiaogang base?

Huang Sheng decided to deliberately keep the lair where Zheng Yiguan was known, but swallowed all the pirate dens entrenched in the Penghu Islands.

At this time, if you don't do Zheng Yiguan, you are preparing to divide them internally, Zheng Yiguan's strength will be damaged, and the troops and warships will lose thirty percent.

However, if the Daming Naval Division is approaching step by step, when the soldiers are in danger, the pirates who will fall apart will unite and unite with the outside world.

Because officers and men are inherently enemies of bandits, they will naturally seek common ground while reserving differences and kill the common enemy first.

Now there are only seven new warships of the Huang family, plus the modified warships and Li Guozhu's subordinates, they can fight with them, but the battle damage will be very large, and the result of fish death and net breaking is what Huang Sheng does not want to see.

Whether it is unacceptable whether his own strength is damaged or Zheng Yiguan's pirate group has suffered heavy losses, how can the piracy in the South China Sea be extinct?

At present, he is not mainly engaged in the South China Sea, and there is Jiannu, the biggest enemy of the Han nation, in Liaodong, who is tossing, and he has no energy to control the South China Sea in a short time.

Wouldn't it be in vain to defeat Zheng Yiguan's pirate group and defeat Zheng Yiguan, and the Dutch, Portuguese, Spaniards, etc., were cheapened for nothing?

Moreover, there are many pirates whose strength should not be underestimated, Li Kuiqi, Zhong Bin, Liu Xiang, Yang Liu, Yang Qi, Guo Huaiyi, He Bin, etc., although these pirate leaders are Zheng Yiguan and Eighteen Zhi allied brothers.

But they are all loosely organized, and they are all pirate leaders who lead the way, which one is the one who is willing to live under the people? Zheng Yiguan saw that he had lost his overwhelming deterrence by force, and believed that the external troubles would appear as soon as the internal worries were removed.

Huang Sheng's purpose in fighting pirates this time was to rob, mainly to seize ships and capture prisoners to enhance his strength. There are so many gold and silver treasures in the pirate's den, and the slaves will be young and old, so let these riches be donated to the Huang family for development!

In the war room of the "Liaodong", each sand table is as realistic as a bonsai, and these sand tables are the works of the Huang family officers and young musketeers in the past 20 days.

The proportion of the mountains and rivers is based on the confessions of many pirate captives, and then let the captives confirm and modify, which sand table is based on the confessions of which captives are recorded.

These captives were warned that if the Ming army found that the mountains and rivers at the attack site did not match the information they provided, they would be executed.

If it is accurate, and provides relatively accurate information about the defense of the pirate den, the Ming army will recruit them as officers and soldiers after the attack, and accept and settle their families.

When the sand table was first made, the pirates who provided the data did not have any objections after looking at it.

But when Huang Dongshan, who was wearing the regular uniform of a military attache of the fourth grade, announced loudly: If the data provided by the pirate captives is wrong, what awaits them is a thousand cuts, and if they are right, they will become officials and soldiers, and the family will have food and clothing.

Huang Dongshan, who announced the rules of rewards and punishments, was immediately blocked by the pirates who knelt on the ground, and they all asked Lord Huang to stay, asking him to take his subordinates to carefully revise some imperfections in the sand table they participated in making together.

The pirate captives changed from indifferent at the beginning to trembling, and they were really afraid that due to the inaccuracy of their own information, the Ming army would be angry with them after being deflated, and it was really possible to chop them up.

The soldiers of the Huang family followed the master of the family one by one to learn extremely shrewdly, first encouraging the captives to provide information, setting no precedent as much as possible, and then slowly perfecting, and finally showing their fangs, making the pirate captives responsible for their actions.

There are many pirates who have just started to talk about what they don't know about casually, but who knows that they have caused trouble, and now they have to meditate hard and try to be accurate, and finally they are not sure.

In order not to be killed by the Ming army, they began to expose others, because they knew that there was anyone else who had worked with them here among the Ming prisoners, and this was the cleverness of inciting the masses to fight the masses.

The Huang family obtained an absolutely accurate map and sand table without much effort, and Bingqi's deduction was of course twice the result with half the effort.

The first target chosen was one of the eighteen pirates who had surrendered to Zheng Yiguan, Guo Huaiyi's pirate gang entrenched in Xiaomenyu in the Penghu Islands.

This kid has more than 30 large and small warships, and he used to be one of Li Guozhu's partners with Li Dan, who nominally obeyed Li Dan's dispatch and has been operating in Xiaomenyu for more than ten years, and is a medium-sized pirate gang.

He starts everything for his own interests, and whoever is powerful in the South China Sea, he is the first to recognize others as the boss, and belongs to a pirate leader who has no pursuit, no position, and no ambition.

It is estimated that Jiannu will be the first to kneel and lick if he is in power. After all, pirates are not the imperial army, their affiliation is loose, and they usually do their own thing, and when there is a big deal, they only have a big deal with so-and-so as the boss and a partner.
