Chapter 121: Cross-examination of the captives

Cao Hucheng's heavy infantry under the command of the general banner of the two small banners jumped to seize the ship under the cover of twenty musketeers under the command of Gou'er and the temporary foot archers of one small banner under the command of Han Kuan.

No, it's not a jumping gang, the heavy infantry is too heavy to jump, it is to lower the sides of the bow like a drawbridge, with a three-zhang long gangplank with palladium nails at the front, and walk to the enemy ship.

There were no pirates who were stupid and stubbornly resisted, and they were all honestly tied up, they knew that the general trend was gone, and resistance would cause limited casualties to the Ming army at most, and it would be useless.

If the Ming army is provoked, it is possible to kill them with a knife, some people are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of life is better than death, and the pirates chose to resign themselves to fate.

There was also a pirate ship that had escaped, and was chased and beaten on the butt by two No. 2 Fuchuan-class warships, the Liaoyang and Haizhou, with a twelve-pound rifled gun on the bow, and the pirates had lost their fighting spirit.

Suddenly, the three grass-skimming boats 'Gaizhou,' 'Jinzhou,' and 'Fuzhou,' which were encircled in front of them, fired their nine-pounder rifled guns on the bow.

The combat effectiveness of the pirate ship is not even comparable to that of a Huang Jiacao skimming ship, and now they are beaten by five warships of the Ming army and beaten by five rifled guns, where can they afford it.

The mast of the warship was broken, the cannon was half overturned, and the deck was in shambles, and a few pirates who had been splattered with miscellaneous nails but did not die rolled and wailed on the deck, and their hearts were torn apart.

It is impossible to escape, and the Japanese who are very familiar with the current affairs also chose to pull out the crotch cloth in their pants and cry and wave at the Ming warship, they have been beaten off their arrogance, and they are obediently taken prisoner one by one.

After packing up the two Japanese ships that were trying to escape, it was easier to turn around and deal with the pirate ship that had lost power and was thrown in the middle of the road, and directly let the pirates who had surrendered shout, and those pirates who had been beaten up saw that their fleeing companions were caught by the Ming army, and immediately raised their hands and surrendered.

The most casualties on this vermilion ship were as many of the pirates were in their deck gun emplacements ready to fire while covered in flowering shells, and the sailors were also sailing, and the flying shrapnel wounded all of them, killing more than half of them on the spot.

In the first battle at sea, Niu Dao captured three Zhuyin ships in a small test, captured one hundred and one ronins and sailors, and a small half were wounded, Lord Huang would not be satisfied with such a result, this is the appetizer, and the big dish is to prepare to end this group of pirates.

More than a hundred captives have been captured, will the pirate's lair still be able to hide? With a pirate of this size, how much treasure must they have hidden? It's drooling just thinking about it.

All the captives were escorted to the platform where the head of the family was located, which was spliced together by dozens of horse boats and warships, and several of the most experienced officers, such as Huang Dongshan, Gou'er and Lu Chengzu, took musketeers and interrogated them one by one.

The pirate captives are lectured before the questioning, and the content is to answer all questions honestly, which is the only way to leave you a life, and whoever dares to hide it or lie will not be forgiven.

This is the Huang family's rules of doing things, and they will definitely not teach it and give everyone a chance, even a damned person like the Wakoga pirates.

The three musketeers carefully interrogated one person, Ruan Dan, Shang Muming and their students who did not know Chinese helped to translate, and Liu Guozheng and a dozen sailors who rescued Huang Sheng from the pirate's den last time also came to help.

Liu Guozheng and a few of them have been in the pirate's den for a while, and he is familiar with the characteristics of pirates, and he can also speak Japanese.

With the fatigue offensive of the non-stop interrogation of the presiding judge, the pirates who might be able to withstand the beating were exhausted by the non-stop questioning, and the final answer was a reflex.

The chief interrogator, Huang Dongshan, began to improve the record, and then confessed one by one, and those who dared to lie were immediately tied up and thrown aside, waiting for their fate to be very bad.

The Huang family is a civilized teacher and a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and he will definitely not do cruel things that are not taught, but will be benevolent and righteous to every captive, and will take the trouble to explain the good policy of confessing his life and concealing the killing of his head.

Most of the pirates chose to live and answer the question honestly, there were more than a dozen stubborn heads in different places, and when the Huang family killed them, they gathered the captives together again, telling everyone how these people lied and deceived the great, glorious and correct Ming officers and soldiers.

also gave them a chance to defend themselves, and in the end, more than a dozen pirates who wanted to get away with it knew that they were wrong and kowtowed and begged for mercy, but unfortunately it was too late, and the Huang family only gave them one chance, go and reincarnate again!

After killing more than a dozen people, the interrogation continued, and the Huang family had begun to change from rough lines to no matter how big or small, people are like this, and if the defense line collapses, there will be no defense.

The situation of this group of pirates was completely controlled by the Huang family's private soldiers, and there were actually two of their nests, one on a small island called Zuoqian Island to the east of Naru Island, and the other on an island called Komae Island to the west of Naru Island.

How many pirates there were, how many ships, how many cannons were asked. The terrain of the mountains and rivers was also made into a sand table for the pirates to correct one by one.

No one dares to play tricks anymore, the pirates are not stupid, they know that what is fake is fake after all, they still have more than eighty people, as long as one person tells the truth, the Ming army will get everything they want.

Everyone lies together, unless they have been trained collectively, it is obvious that pirates do not have a partisan school, and they cannot play with a unified voice.

This group of pirates is medium in scale, and there are seven warships of this level such as the Vermilion Ship, and dozens of other small ships have no combat effectiveness to be negligible.

It's just that no one can say for sure whether the pirate ships are all in their home ports, and it's impossible to determine which one is in the two home ports.

Both home ports had a fort with three Hongyi cannons, all of which were twelve-pound copper-core iron cannons, and because of the narrow waterway into the home port, the three guns had the ability to destroy ships that could not pass through the waterway quickly.

The Hongyi cannon was later renamed by the evil Manchu Qing Dynasty, because the barbarians taboo the barbarian name for the word 'Yi' was changed to the nondescript red 'clothes' cannon.

The situation is already clear, the next step is to expand the results of the war and rob to increase income, and the Huang family is waiting for this moment to come.

After seizing three vermilion ships, they got a harvest of more than 100,000 taels of silver, and the property on board was another seven or eight thousand taels.

The Huang Musketeers were also interrogating the pirate captives separately, recording everything they knew about the Lair. Even how many warehouses there are and how many people are asked in detail.

It is a consensus to eat this group of pirates, and it is not a problem to take down the pirate den, and how to exchange it for the least price is the theme.

Huang Sheng decided that it was still a lion fighting a rabbit, and still attacked with the whole army, attacking one by one. None of the enemies slipped through the net, and the pirate lair had no way of knowing that they had been taken care of.

Don't worry, the Huang family fleet first went to Li Guozhu's private port to unload the cargo, and then started to grab the pirates to make money.

After a year, Li Guozhu saw Lord Huang again, he was a little at a loss, this Ming official brought so many warships, it seems possible to eat his own territory with his strength!

Fortunately, the guests who came were very knowledgeable about the rules, and their warships did not enter the port, but let the No. 2 Fu ship and the horse ship without force enter the port to trade.
