Because of Zhang Zhijie's deep groan, Xu Sanye and the kneeling people felt very depressed and very frightened. Especially the sound of Zhang Zhijie knocking on the table, every sound seemed to knock on their hearts.

Just when their hearts were getting heavier and heavier, Zhang Zhijie finally stopped and asked lightly: "Is the sea still calm now?" ”

After hearing this, Xu Sanye thought for a moment and said, "Lord Qincha, there has never been a time when the sea is completely calm!" There are always pirates on the seas, but there are no particularly powerful pirates on the seas right now! ”

Zhang Zhijie nodded when he heard this, and asked, "Are there many widows now?" ”

Xu Sanye smiled when he heard this: "Wokou? My lord, there are indeed some samurai and ronins on the sea, and there is a lot of chaos on the Dongying side now, almost every day there is a war, and it is ridiculous over there, and a war of a few hundred people is called a big war! These ronin warriors were all defeated, and they couldn't survive in Dongying, so they went to sea, some lived with pirates, and some ran with the fleet! ”

Zhang Zhijie frowned slightly when he heard this, this is not what he thought, it seems that these ronin warriors are not very powerful. In fact, this is Zhang Zhijie himself who doesn't understand, the so-called rebellion of the Japanese in later generations, the real Japanese only account for one-tenth of one-two!

The main culprits of the real rebellion were the maritime merchants on the southeast coast, and the so-called Japanese were actually just people who lived under the hands of those maritime merchants. There are very few pirates who are actually composed of pirates.

Zhang Zhijie listened to his head and said lightly: "The Xia family has been ambushed, do you know where the fleet controlled by the Xia family is?" ”

Xu Sanye couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this, and was silent for a moment before replying: "The fleet controlled by the Xia family has gone to sea, and now it should be floating near Shuangyu Island." ”

Zhang Zhijie listened and continued to ask: "How many ships are there?" ”

Xu Sanye replied: "Large and small, there are about more than 200 boats. ”

Zhang Zhijie was taken aback and said, "So many? Zhang Zhijie was indeed a little surprised, the fleet he built to go out to sea by himself was only a few dozen ships, and he didn't reach the Xia family to control more than 200 ships.

Seeing Zhang Zhijie's surprised appearance, Xu Sanye knew that Zhang Zhijie had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "My lord, not all of these fleets belong to the Xia family, some of them are attached to the Xia family, and most of them are cargo ships, and the ships are not big!" ”

Zhang Zhijie reacted at this time, too, the Xia family's ships are mainly smuggled at sea, and they must be mainly cargo ships, and their combat power is secondary.

Zhang Zhijie frowned and said: "It's not a matter to let these ships float on the sea, and they won't develop into pirates after a long time!" If you attack coastal villages and towns, you'll be in trouble! ”

"Do you think you can persuade them to come ashore? The Doge will put them in place! ”

Xu Sanye and these people couldn't help frowning when they heard this, and persuaded them to go ashore, how could this be possible? This Lord Qincha had just slaughtered the Xia family cleanly, and these fleets floating on the sea were about to become frightened birds, how could they agree to go ashore?

After all, although it is hard to float outside, it is also considered to be happy and happy, but if you go ashore, it will become a fish on the chopping board for others to slaughter.

Of course, Xu Sanye didn't dare to say this directly, and said thoughtfully: "Lord Qincha, these people already have some habits in the rivers and lakes, they are used to running to the sea, and they are wary of the government, I am afraid it will be difficult to persuade them to go ashore!" ”

Zhang Zhijie said lightly: "Then I still have to trouble you to persuade me, in short, the governor who goes ashore is not to blame for the past, and those who don't go ashore will be killed!" ”

It turned out that it was just to persuade them that those who were willing to go ashore should go ashore, and those who did not want to go ashore would forget it, this errand was really trouble-free. Xu Sanye and the others hurriedly agreed.

Zhang Zhijie then asked, "Are there pirates in this offshore sea?" ”

Xu Sanye hurriedly replied: "My lord, there are naturally pirates. There are four main pirate forces! ”

Zhang Zhi nodded and said, "Four?" Okay, you also carry it with you, and if you are willing to go ashore, you can recruit peace, but if you are not, the governor will be killed together! ”

Xu Sanye hurriedly agreed again, which was not a difficult thing for them. Although there are pirates on the sea, these pirates also watch the dishes, some can be robbed, and some can't, which they also know.

These pirates are mainly the ones who rob the gangsters, the kind that make small fights. The fleets of maritime giants like them, they generally don't rob them.

Of course, these maritime tycoons are not without contact with these pirates, so Zhang Zhijie asked Xu Sanye and them to pass the word on their behalf, which is not difficult for Xu Sanye and them.

So Xu Sanye promised to be happy, although they promised happily, but they still muttered in their hearts, and now they are also clear about the appearance of the coastal guard, and they want them to go to the sea to suppress bandits, this result is really difficult to say!

Although Lord Qincha is a good hand at fighting, and he can kill more than 3,000 bandits with only 1,000 men and horses without losing many troops, but this war on land is completely different from fighting at sea!

Lord Qincha is very good at fighting on land, but it is not necessarily good at sea, plus the coastal guards are very lax! It's not easy to suppress bandits at sea! But what does this have to do with yourself? I'm just a messenger.

Xu Sanye agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, don't worry, the villain will definitely ask someone to bring them all the words of the adult!" If you want to come to the prestige of adults, they will definitely hear the news and vote! ”

Zhang Zhijie was noncommittal to Xu Sanye's words, he has some reputation, but this reputation is not at sea, these people are unruly, and it is strange that they can be intimidated by their prestige. In the end, there will still be a battle, of course, this will have to wait until the formation of their own fleet.

When the time comes, we will concentrate all our forces and go to sea together to suppress bandits, on the one hand, to prepare for the future opening of the sea ban, and on the other hand, to train our own fleet.

Zhang Zhijie asked lightly: "The Xia family's fleet is floating on Shuangyu Island, what about your fleet?" ”

Zhang Zhijie's faint question startled these people, Lord Qincha wouldn't even let go of their fleet, right? If it really doesn't work, the fleet will have to dock.

Xu Sanye smiled dryly: "My lord, all of them are floating on the sea!" ”

Zhang Zhijie listened and asked lightly: "Also on Shuangyu Island?" ”

Xu Sanye smiled dryly: "Back to my lord, yes, there are many boats for the villains, and most of them are on Shuangyu Island!" ”

Zhang Zhijie nodded and said, "That's it!" The Governor has said before that you have violated the prohibitions of the imperial court, and you should still be punished! The Governor does not want your money, so let you be punished for your sins and meritorious deeds. ”
