"Is anyone left behind?"

Tian Boguang looked back at the people around him, and then asked.

The teams of each team were immediately starting to count the number of people in the whole team, and after a while, they reported that there were a total of 2,400 members of the Tiger Guard Teaching Brigade who had come here, and the actual number of those who arrived was 2,389, and eleven people were left behind.

"You don't have to wait any longer, you have a compass and a map on you, and you can't get lost." Tian Boguang scolded in a low voice and said: "It's important to get down to business, the Zheng family is in front, less than ten miles, I have to walk this section of the road tonight, everyone starts to rest, you can eat, but you can't make a fire!" ”

These days are day and night, for the tiger guard, it is also a great exercise, although they have done a lot of training in this area in Xinxiang and Changhua, but there are still people who have fallen behind. Tian Boguang was not worried about their safety, those who could enter the teaching brigade and be selected to carry out this mission were the elite of the elite. The only thing I am worried about is how to go back to Xinxiang if I can't keep up.

Time passed quickly, and the short rest passed in a blink of an eye, and at about ten o'clock in the evening, they began to set off again, and at two o'clock in the morning, they finally arrived at Zheng's house in Ishii.

The Zheng family completely surrounded a mountain facing the sea, but after all, it was the Ming Dynasty, although he had a lot of posts and secret posts, he did not dare to build a real city wall fortress after all. Tian Boguang has studied the relevant information, and there is no problem in blocking ordinary rogue thieves in this deep mansion compound, but it is not enough for the tiger guard who carries an eight-pound short cannon.

So this battle, not so much a battle. It's more of a game. For Huwei, the most difficult part was how to hide more than 2,000 people and bring them to Shijing Town. It took them nearly three months to march and it took only thirty minutes for the battle to end.

Yu Guozhen's purpose was to capture or kill the main figures of the Zheng family, especially Zheng Zhilong. But in the end. But I didn't find Zheng Zhilong, and even the main characters of the Zheng family, none of them were at home!

"Where have the people gone?" Everyone was amazed.

"You are not thieves. Who are you? ”

Those who were driven to one place were the family members of the Zheng family, who wanted to know the whereabouts of the main figures of the Zheng family. It is only from their mouths that they know. But unexpectedly, before they could ask them in detail, a woman in the Zheng family questioned in jerky Chinese.

"This should be Mrs. Zheng's Tagawa clan, right?" Tian Boguang's heart moved, looking at this woman, although she was dressed as a noble lady of the Ming Kingdom, her speech and temperament were still quite different: "We are indeed not thieves. ”

"It should be Nanhaibo's subordinates, right?" Tagawa asked again.

"Mrs. Zheng's knowledge is extraordinary." Tian Boguang knew in his heart that everyone's style of acting was completely different from that of ordinary bandits, let alone rogues, so he didn't expect to be able to hide his identity at this time. In fact, they concealed it all the way, just to prevent the Zheng family from finding out in advance, and at the same time to give the government an excuse to prevaricate.

The court also knew that Zhang Xianzhong was full. will come to Nan'an to drink seawater! But the imperial court also understood that the attack on the Zheng family was a warning to some people in the imperial court: since the tiger guards could attack the Zheng family, they could also attack their hometown. As long as the face is not torn on the surface, of course the court will pretend to be deaf and dumb, who is willing to do it for the sake of a Zheng family. Go and risk opposing Yu Guozhen!

"Since you don't hide your identity, then our whole family won't have a life, right?" The Tagawa clan lowered his head: "But I heard that Nanhaibo's Tiger Guard Army is strictly disciplined, please give us a clean death." ”

Tian Boguang couldn't help but have some difficulties for a while.

If the other party is crying, it is easy to do, or if the other party is stubborn to the end, it is not difficult to do. Tian Boguang has never been a soft-hearted person, and among the senior generals of Huwei, his heart is probably harder than Ye Wuya and Zhang Zheng, two cold-faced guys. But this woman's appearance made him feel slightly uneasy in his heart.

Moreover, it seems that killing Zheng Zhilong's family does not have any practical benefits for Xinxiang, he is here to kill Zheng Zhilong himself, if he kills Zheng Zhilong and kills his whole family, it is nothing, but he has never grabbed the main master, scooping up the old and weak women and children of other people - this is not Huwei's style of acting.

"What about Zheng Zhilong?" Tian Boguang thought for a moment and then asked.

"The husband went out to sea by boat ten days ago, went to meet the red-haired Fanren, and attacked Xinxiang together." The Tagawa clan didn't hide it, and there was no point in concealing it, because she knew that the news would soon be known to Tian Boguang.

"What!"

Tian Boguang took a breath of cold air, and his eyes widened.

Zheng Zhilong went to attack Xinxiang?

According to the information that Huwei had before, Zheng Zhilong, together with the Dutch, the Tokugawa shogunate, and some figures in the imperial court, colluded to attack, forcing Xinxiang to run for his life and had to disperse his strength. But he never thought that Zheng Zhilong would have the courage to directly attack Xinxiang!

Zheng Zhilong also has no way.

The sea breeze blew on his face, and he felt that his mouth was full of bitterness, as if the sea water was pouring into his mouth.

"General, do you really listen to the envoys of the red-haired people like this?" Shi Fu was unwilling: "Look at their appearance towards us, and their expressions when they handed over the silver to us when they traded with the Japanese kingdom in the past, now they have forgotten it all!" ”

"So what, now we have to ask them. If it weren't for them, would we be able to directly attack Nanhai Bo's Xinxiang? It's not that you haven't seen the defense over there, even if we break through the Dragon Gate, I'm afraid that we will suffer heavy losses! ”

"The red-haired ghost is cunning, he learned that Nanhai Bo and the Japanese State had started a war, and he heard that the natives on the Luzon side were in turmoil, so he came directly to attack Xinxiang." Shi Fu thought of the Longmen Island Fort, and also felt a headache, he went to Xinxiang more than once, and every time he went, he found that there were more cannons on the fort there. In Xinxiang, Yu Guozhen almost unscrupulously overstepped the system and built forts, while the Zheng family did not dare to do so in Nan'an.

"Didn't you listen to the red-haired ghost, Nanhaibo has something that can carry people to the sky, and the red-haired ghost got the news from the Franco-robot and coveted it. He was afraid that we would not give them this thing if we took possession of Xinxiang, so he rushed to take Xinxiang. Now it is the weakest time for Xinxiang's garrison, the main force of the sailor is outside, and if the red-haired ghost suddenly launches, he may really succeed. Zheng Zhilong smiled bitterly: "I regret it now, or I shouldn't have turned my face like this with Nanhaibo, if the court learns that I colluded with people to attack Xinxiang, I don't know what to do, I can't say, we have to go to the big staff." ”

"It's a good place for the big guy, but the red-haired ghost and the South China Sea Bo are one south and one north, where will they be able to accommodate us." Shi Fu muttered.

"Hugh said it again, and immediately went to the Dragon Gate to see what happened to the red hair...... Hey, what's that? When Zheng Zhilong saw the sea and sky, a cloud of smoke rushed into the blue sky, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "Could it be that which ship caught fire?" ”

"If there's a fire, you have to go and see it."

"The smoke is coming to us!"

It was not only Zheng Zhilong and Shi Fu who discovered this, but also the Dutch governor Dimon, who formed a mixed fleet with them and was only a little far away, also saw the smoke. He held up his binoculars: "I don't know which guy is the inverted frieze, but since we have encountered it, we can't let it go." ”

Behind him, the military priest Yunius made a cross: "God forbid, these heretics should have been burned at the stake, and now it's just a matter of bringing their trip to hell forward." ”

The priest was not a soft-hearted man, in fact, none of these crazy missionaries were soft-hearted, and a few years ago Yunius had organized an army of about 1,600 men to attack the natives of the Huweilong Society, killing people and setting fire to the landers, and the priest holding the cross was familiar with this.

On the calm surface of the sea, such smoke can always be seen from a great distance. After about ten minutes or so, the sailors heard a slight sound, like the buzzing of bees, but it grew louder and louder, and soon became a rumbling sound, like a thousand horses galloping towards them.

By this time, both Zheng Zhilong and Di Men realized that something was wrong with the situation.

If it was a ship that caught fire, then there should have been a fire, but they could only see the smoke, but not the fire. The same is true in the telescope, except that the ship is already visible in the telescope.

"It's not good, it's Xinxiang's ship!"

Zheng Zhilong saw clearly the flag hanging on the ship, and the dolphin flag was extremely dazzling.

"No sails, no sails!" Someone exclaimed again.

Xinxiang's first steamship, the Yellow Falcon, had sails, and the second Falcon directly canceled the sails, and it was rumbling over the sea - for Song Yingxing, who studied it, the pursuit of speed and stability was now, and as for the silence, it was not on the agenda for the time being, so the noise was extraordinarily loud.

The steamship with a displacement of two hundred tons appeared in front of the huge coalition fleet, and the people on board had clearly spotted them, and circled in a distance, not intruding into their formation head-on, but began to slow down about five miles away, as if watching them.

"Surround it, grab it!"

Dimon's face became extremely strange, with both fear and greed, and there was much more greed than fear.

The Dutch of this era were the "coachmen of the sea" in Europe, who were so bold in the oceans that they even dared to make deals with the devil. Dimon could become a governor, and naturally knew the purpose of such a ship that could still travel at high speed without sails.

Even if it was a ship made by the devil, the Dutch would get it, monopolize it, and use it to become the new nation on which the sun never sets!

"O God, I have heard the chant of heaven, just hold this ship, God will leave you a place in the best place of heaven, and you and your children will be happy forever in a house built of gold!" Pastor Yunus understood this too, and he shouted hoarsely, boosting morale.

"Officer Nikolai also saw it, their ship has begun to surround it, don't let him rob us of our loot, quick, quick!" Mendy ordered.

The coalition fleet quickly dispersed, and the cannon was pointed at the Falcon, ready to fire at any moment. At this time, the distance between the Falcon and them was less than three miles. (To be continued)
