"Dutch warships?" Zhu Youzhen was shocked, the war between the Ming South China Sea Fleet and the Dutch had just ended, and the Netherlands had lost a large number of trade bases, although the Dutch were forced to swallow their anger because of their weak strength in the South Seas, but it did not mean that the Dutch did not have their own ideas, if the Dutch attacked the Ming fleet and merchant ships in the case of local superiority, it was not impossible.

Wang Mujiu looked at the Dutch ships in the distance, the distance was still far away, "Master, abandon the boat and land, as long as you get to the shore, the Dutch ships will lose their advantage!" ”

"Yes, master," Fu Xiaojian has been following behind Zhu Youzhen, although the Dutch ships are still twenty miles away, he is already very nervous, "The Netherlands has a large number of ships, and our warship only has one lucky ship." ”

"Don't worry, it's still far away!" Zhu Youzhen turned around and asked the herald: "You have encountered enemy ships before, how do you generally deal with them at this distance?" ”

"My lord, we usually ask each other what they mean by the flag," replied the herald, bowing down, "We have asked, and the Dutch are just passing by!" ”

"Master, although the Dutch are passing by, they have five ships, and we can't afford not to guard against them!" Wang Mujiu's expression became solemn, and his eyes searched the shore, as if he was looking for a landing place.

"Well," Zhu Youzhen turned to the herald and said, "Let them sail on the left!" ”

The herald said aggrievedly: "Master, according to the rules of sea navigation, it should be us who sail on the right, just now the flag has been waved on the Fu boat, but the other party refuses to keep to the left!" ”

"We're on the right?" Zhu Youzhen frowned, if the transport ship sails on the right and away from the coastline, in case the Dutch ships attack, there is nowhere to escape on the sea, and there is nowhere to hide if they want to.

Wang Mujiu was anxious, "Master, we must not sail on the right, that will be far from the coastline!" ”

"But the Dutch won't let the way," the herald was helpless, "Master, what are we going to do now?" ”

"No, we have transport ships here, we can't leave the coastline!" Zhu Youzhen didn't know if his method would work, and he really didn't understand the rules of the sea in this era.

The herald shook his head, "Master, the Dutch won't!" ”

"Master, shall we go ashore?" Fu Xiaojian pressed the hilt of the sword, and he estimated that if there was a war on the sea, he might not be able to display his martial arts.

Zhu Youzhen smiled: "The Dutch don't dare to do anything, right?" Didn't they get beaten up by Zheng Zhilong? ”

At this moment, the ships of both sides advanced about ten miles, and now the Fu ship in front of it is only ten miles away from the Dutch ship, and it is the transport ship where Zhu Youzhen is located, and he can see the Dutch ship clearly, and even the red ribbon of the Dutch officer on the deck can be seen.

"Master, what should I do?" Fu Xiaojian saw that the fortune boat in front of him began to turn horizontal, and it was about to fight fiercely with the other party, "We only have one fortune boat!" ”

"My lord, a lucky ship can't resist for long, so let's go ashore quickly!" The herald found that the Dutch ship on the opposite side had slowed down and was about to turn.

"Master, hurry up and get to the shore." Wang Mujiu's head was sweating, this is not a wharf, the transport ship can't dock at all, all the people have to wade ashore, and it is not known whether the horses can be brought ashore.

"My lord, the blessing ship waved the flag, and several ships came on the opposite side!" The herald shouted, "Let's go quickly!" ”

"Is it a Dutch ship?" Zhu Youzhen was depressed, the Dutch didn't know that they were coming to Nanyang, why was it so unfortunate today? This is a posture to encircle and annihilate oneself.

The herald was silent, time seemed to stand still, and just when Zhu Youzhen was about to stop the ship and dock, he suddenly exclaimed: "My lord, our ship, it's our ship!" ”

"Our ship?" Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed, he looked into the distance, but he couldn't see clearly, "You see clearly?" Absolutely, right? ”

The herald said: "My lord, the villain can't see clearly, this is the flag issued by the lucky ship in front." ”

"Flags?" Zhu Youzhen really saw that the flagbearer on the Fu ship was constantly waving the red flag, and the Dutch ships, which had been halfway through, had begun to turn, as if they were about to make way for Zhu Youzhen.

The herald really verified Zhu Youzhen's words, "My lord, it seems that the Dutch are ready to give way to the channel, they are close, they should have seen our ship!" ”

"Haha, these Dutchmen!" Zhu Youzhen deeply realized that strength is the last word, without follow-up ships, the Dutch will not give way to the transport ships anyway, and now the Dutch ships are being flanked by the South China Sea Fleet, and they do not have an advantage in artillery, so they have no choice but to avoid, "Raise the flag, let them avoid farther away, and leave the range of the artillery of both sides!" ”

"Yes." The herald whispered a few words to the standard-bearer beside him, who immediately waved the flag on the deck.

After a while, the flag-bearer on the Fu ship also waved the flag, and the target should be the Dutch ship.

Half an hour later, the Dutch ships had deviated far from the original channel, and the ships behind them were closer to the transport ships.

"Hurry up and lean over to them!"

The transport ship and the Fu ship in front of them all increased their speed, and an hour later, more than a dozen ships coming from the opposite side were completely within Zhu Youzhen's line of sight, "Good guy, so many are here?" ”

The herald's hanging heart was completely put back into his chest, "My lord, at the front is the 'Nanhai' Canton ship, which is Commander Zheng's flagship!" ”

"Zheng Zhilong? Is Zheng Zhilong coming? Zhu Youzhen put his eyelid on his hand and looked at the ship, where there were several soldiers standing sparsely on the deck, but Zheng Zhilong didn't seem to be there.

After the two ships met, all the ships turned neatly to the left, and the helmsman struggled to turn the wooden rudder at the stern to the maximum angle, leaving whirlpools on the water, and followed the ship again.

Half an hour later, all the ships had completed their turning, and the bow and stern had reversed positions, and the "Nanhai," which had been at the front, was at the end, about a mile away from Zhu Youzhen's transport ship, and was stopping on the sea.

"Transport, get on board!" Zhu Youzhen wanted to see if Zheng Zhilong was on the flagship and why he hadn't appeared until now.

Fu Xiaojian said cautiously: "Master, let the lucky boat lean up first, in case it ......"

Zhu Youjian patted Fu Xiaojian's shoulder and smiled, "Xiaojian, what are you afraid of, can the flagship be faked?" ”

When the two ships were running in parallel, the sailors on the transport ship struggled to throw the cable towards the "Nanhai," and the sailors on the "Nanhai" took the cable, tied it to the iron rod, and slowly turned the iron rod to let the transport ship get closer to each other.

"Boom!"

Although the sailors were very careful, when the two ships touched, there was still a certain collision, the "Nanhai" hull was huge, almost no shaking, but the transport ship shook violently, and the people on the deck were unstable.

When Zhu Youzhen's body shook, he used his virtual magic to make a thousand catties to fall, and he barely stood firm, Wang Mujiu saw Zhu Youzhen's body shaking, and he was ready to come over to help him, but he didn't expect that he himself was unstable, and when he took a step, he just caught up with the hull and tilted to the other side, and the center of gravity was shaken for a while, and he fell on the deck with a "snap".

Although Fu Xiaojian's martial arts were much higher than Wang Mujiu's, he was powerless on the shaking transport ship, and with the help of the heralds, he barely managed to gain a foothold.

Zhu Youzhen stabilized his figure and looked towards the "Nanhai", although the length could not be seen clearly, but the height was more than a zhang higher than that of the transport ship, and people standing on the deck still needed to look up.

A familiar figure climbed down the ramp of the "Nanhai" with his back on his back, Zhu Youzhen smiled silently, but the herald was reminding him: "Lord Qincha, Commander Zheng is here!" ”

"Where's Lord Chincha?" As soon as he got on the deck of the transport ship, Zheng Zhilong shouted, and suddenly saw Zhu Youzhen, he couldn't help but be stunned, then trotted over, turned over and knelt down, and said: "Zheng Zhilong see ......"

"Commander Zheng is finally here?" Zhu Youzhen interrupted Zheng Zhilong's words and helped Zheng Zhilong up, "This is not the place to talk, let's go, go up to the 'South China Sea' and have a look!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty......"

"Talk as you go!" Zhu Youzhen interrupted Zheng Zhilong's words again, "Commander Zheng is still so impatient. ”

Zheng Zhilong was puzzled at first, but after thinking about it, he roughly understood, and the soldiers told him that the imperial court had sent a messenger to Nanyang, and did not say that Zhu Youzhen was there in person, but Zhu Youzhen was hidden in the team of the messenger, and it was obviously a private visit from Weifu.

"Master......" Wang Mujiu saw that Zhu Youzhen was going to leave alone, he was uneasy, what kind of person Zheng Zhilong was, he didn't know much, he only knew that Zheng Zhilong was born as a pirate.

Zhu Youzhen said with a smile: "Mu Jiu don't worry, let Xiaojian accompany you, if you are bored, you can also come to the 'South China Sea'!" ”

"Yes, sir." The two agreed in unison, Fu Xiaojian led a group of guards, followed closely behind Zhu Youzhen, and Wang Mujiu took several personal soldiers and then boarded the "Nanhai".

Zheng Zhilong introduced Zhu Youzhen into his command room, where there were large portholes on each side of the room where he could observe movement on the sea, but now these portholes were covered by curtains and could not be seen outside.

He drank all the pro-soldiers, and saw that in addition to Zhu Youzhen in the room, only his personal guard chief Fu Xiaojian turned over and knelt: "Wechen Zheng Zhilong knocked to see Your Majesty, Wechen didn't know that Your Majesty had arrived, and he missed the distance, I hope Your Majesty forgives Weichen for the crime of not knowing!" ”

"Get up, Zhilong, since you don't know, what's the crime?" Zhu Youzhen chuckled and said: "You should have seen that the master is a private visit to Weifu, and in the future, you will be called 'master' just like Xiaojian and them!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty...... Father! Zheng Zhilong finally changed his words, he always felt a little weird, he stood up, "My lord came to Nanyang this time, ......
