At noon that day, Cui Wanhu, who was taking a nap, was awakened by a noise, and when he got up to look, he saw a small flag under his hand running over with his hat covered. 【Reading.com】

Cui Wanhu scolded aggressively: "What's the matter? Is there another prisoner making trouble? Didn't I tell you that if there is trouble, he will whip him with a leather whip? ”

"Lord Wanhu, there are ships coming, there are many ships!"

"Boats? Won't the ship that will send the prisoners come in a few days? And it's not just one ship...... Could it be a wolf? Thinking of the worst possible surname, Cui Wanhu couldn't help but be shocked.

"It's not a wolf, it's from the north, there are more than a dozen, the ship is coming so fast, Lord Wanhu, go and take a look......" The small flag pointed to the north in a panic, his face was pale and pale, obviously frightened.

From the north? Still fast? Cui Dabing's heart suddenly struck, and a big cake face began to white, this thing is unreasonable!

Jeolla Province does escort prisoners or deliver supplies from time to time, but the boats they use are old and broken, and it's good to be unsinkable, not to mention the speed.

And it's May now, and the wind blowing across the island every day is a southeast wind, so how can you come quickly against the wind? Besides, that's not the right amount, right? More than ten ships, and the naval forces of Jeolla Province and Gyeongsang Province add up to only a few ships?

"You go and call someone, gather all the soldiers on the island, and I'm going to go to the dock to have a look." For the sake of prudence, Cui Dabing decided to make preparations to defend against the enemy first, and then adjust it according to the specific situation.

"Yes, Lord Wanhu."

In addition to the big cake face, Cui Wanhu was also born with a five-short figure, especially two small short legs, which makes uninformed people often wonder if he has any blood relationship with the Japanese people in the east.

However, the congenital conditions are not good, but they can be made up for by the efforts of the day after tomorrow, although the legs of Da Bing are short, the frequency of pounding is high, so the speed is not slow, and the residence is not far from the coast, and it will not take long for him to arrive near the dock in the north of the island.

At this time, many people had gathered at the docks, including soldiers stationed at the docks, and there were also many outcasts.

Because it is an island, it is quite far from the Korean Peninsula, and it is impossible to escape without a boat, so it is not very closely guarded, and many exiles can move freely around the island.

Cui Wanhu was not surprised, his eyes were just staring at the sea, the gaffe in front of him was more severe than that of the small flag, the ship that did not know the way was very close, and he could even see the look on the faces of the people on the ship, as well as the flag hanging on the mast.

Just by looking at the flag, you know that the other party is not a good way to come, if you are a good person, will you hang this kind of flag? A skeleton was drawn on the dark flag, and just looking at it from a distance made people feel eerie.

And the people on the boat are obviously not good birds, all of them have hideous expressions and murderous faces, although they don't understand the meaning of the flag, but Cui Wanhu subconsciously reacted, it was a pirate! And he is also a very powerful Ming pirate!

It's not that the people on the ship look special, it's mainly because of the dozen or so ships that make Cui Wanhu make this judgment.

Judging from the direction from which it came, this fleet should have come from the direction of the Great Black Mountain Island, and it was completely headwind, so the ship's mainsail was not raised, only a few triangular sails hung on the auxiliary mast.

However, it is obviously not the dispensable sails that drive the ship forward, the mystery is in the stern, there are two bright white water lines behind each boat, drawing a trajectory on the sea, as if there are several pairs of invisible hands pushing under the sea!

Such an unheard of ship is obviously not something that North Korea or the Japanese can have, and in the East China Sea, only the Ming Dynasty can have such shipbuilding technology.

Although Cui Wanhu's official position is not high, he still has some knowledge, and like North Korea, the Ming Dynasty is now forbidden to the sea, so there will definitely be no official fleet.

And the so-called maritime merchants are no different from pirates, and no one has come to Jeju Island because it is too barren to rob it.

Will it be lost? It should be, otherwise what are they doing on Jeju Island? Cui Wanhu comforted himself in his heart, otherwise, he really couldn't control his trembling legs, and he wanted to scream.

Like the other North Koreans on the dock, how could they suppress the shock of fear in their hearts if they didn't vent like this?

......, "Brother Xie, this is it, it should be right, right?" ”

"That's right." Xie Hong let out a long breath and nodded. Although the ship is equipped with a compass produced by Jumbo Zhai, the specific route cannot be determined because there is no accurate chart.

Xie Hong's strategy was to travel along the coastline of the Korean Peninsula, which would not only prevent him from getting lost, but also facilitate supplies.

The space of the flywheel battleship is relatively small, but this time there are a lot of materials that need to be carried, and in order to save space to the greatest extent, the proportion of supplies can only be compressed.

The three-day shore replenishment, coupled with the unfavorable wind direction along the way, so, despite the speed of the flywheel battleship itself, it took nearly a month to get from Lushun to Jeju Island.

The final part of the journey was particularly difficult.

First, on the issue of shipping routes, North Korea followed the example of the Ming Dynasty everywhere, and even the policy of banning the sea was the same, so Xie Hong's original plan to buy or rob the charts completely failed, except for some fishermen, on the way, he did not find anyone related to navigation.

This is somewhat inconsistent with his perception of North Korea, he remembered that North Korea should have a very powerful naval army, but all the way to the past, he didn't hear any news, it was really strange.

Could it be that the North Koreans' sense of secrecy is really so advanced that even the news of the existence of the fleet is regarded as a military secret, and coercion and temptation cannot be shaken? Sure enough, it is a very amazing nation, and Xie Hong is also secretly amazed.

There were no charts, so Xie Hong had to synthesize the information he had received from the North Korean fishermen, combined with the route he had traveled, and slowly draw a chart of the offshore sea for later use, but these did not help him much for his voyage.

When the fleet departed, it was still late spring, and the wind on the sea was not directional, but when we set off from Daeheishan Island and came to Jeju Island, the wind direction had been completely fixed, and it was completely headwinded.

In desperation, Xie Hong could only use the method of rotation, using a flywheel to drive the warship forward, and it was definitely not possible to use this method to go deep into the ocean, but from the southern tip of Korea to Jeju Island, it could still be used reluctantly.

"Brother Jiang, let's do it, first blow up a round with earth-shattering thunder, and then completely defeat the North Korean soldiers, and occupy this island first." Although the opponent was already in a mess, it didn't look like he had any combat power, but Xie Hong still maintained enough attention.

Scarface pulled out his war knife, pulled two knife flowers, and said with a nonchalant smile: "No need, just these chickens and dogs, where can they be so troublesome, and someone will directly rush to kill them for a while." ”

It's not that he underestimates the enemy, it's just that he has fought against the North Korean soldiers before, and he knows that the opponent's combat strength is not high, and the one who is guarding Jeju Island is the weakest army among the weak troops, where will he pay attention to it?

And he also knew that the fleet's materials were limited, although Xie Hong also had follow-up plans, but for a long time, he could only rely on the existing materials to fight, and there may be many opponents, and the strength was unknown.

"It's better to be cautious, Brother Jiang, you look at it and do it, let's try not to have casualties here." Xie Hong said in a deep voice: "Brother Ma, when Brother Jiang and they crush the North Korean soldiers, you start shouting and telling them to surrender and avoid death." ”

"Hmm." Maang nodded.

The reason why he appeared in the fleet, of course, was not to act as a bard, in addition to talking a lot, he also had a talent for learning languages. At that time, he learned Mongolian very quickly, and after arriving in Liaozhen, it was only a few months before he had already passed the Korean language.

Therefore, although his combat effectiveness is similar to Xie Hong, he still appears in the fleet, mainly as a translator, and he is also an upgraded translator, because next, with the progress of Xie Hong's plan, he will continue to learn the Japanese language, and the technical content of this work is also very high.

"Poof! Poof! ”

After holding back on the boat for a month, Jiang Bin and his subordinates itched from the inside out, got Xie Hong's instructions, and did not hesitate, without waiting for the boat to stop, they jumped off the boat one after another, reorganized the team a little, formed a sharp arrow formation headed by Jiang Bin, and rushed to the dock with a cruel smile.

"Dang!" This crisp sound was not the sound of weapons clashing, but the sound of weapons falling to the ground.

In fact, Cui Wanhu can be regarded as a good man in the North Korean army, seeing that the momentum is not right, he also drew his sword in his hand, and shouted at the soldiers under his command, wanting to gather these people, resist first, and wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

However, when he saw Jiang Bin and his gang appear, his heart was already half cold.

Cui Wanhu himself is not tall, but he is used to seeing the enemies of Wajima, he has always been a little confident, and he feels that he does not lose the name of Wanhu, and he can be regarded as a martial artist.

But most of Jiang Bin's people are Yan Zhao men, not to mention their tall stature, they are all extremely burly, and even the war knives in their hands are one size bigger than ordinary people. Cui Wanhu is used to seeing hills, and suddenly sees high mountains, how can he not be surprised?

In the end, what shocked him so much that he couldn't even hold the knife in his hand was the performance of Jiang Bin and the others after jumping off the boat.

Jiang Bin and the others actually did not deliberately form a team, but only hastily occupied a single position, Xie Hong told them that the landing battle should be fast, and if they were forced to go up in the sea, then the landing battle would be a complete failure.

can be seen in Cui Dabing's eyes, such an opponent is too strong. On the other hand, on the other hand, on the other hand, it is clear that there is the responsibility of guarding, and he has been shouting for a long time, but it is still a plate of scattered sand, how to fight this battle?

The courage of the soldiers, although Jiang Bin and the others have not yet made a move, it can be seen that their own ten thousand households have shown their cowardice, and the soldiers at the dock are even more frightened, with the advance of Jiang Bin and others, there are already signs of collapse.

"Don't panic, Lord Wanhu, reinforcements are coming." At the last moment, Cui Wanhu suddenly heard a shout behind him, and the voice of the leader was familiar to him, it was the small flag he sent to gather reinforcements.
