readx;
In the Fort of Geranza, halfway through the battle, most of the drunken warriors had already sobered up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
These recruits, who had just enlisted in the army, participated in this kind of big scene for the first time, and they all watched it with enthusiasm.
They also knew that the Heavenly Army in this castle was very strong in combat, and when they saw it tonight, it was indeed so.
The recruits, who weren't drunk, were still a little scared when they first saw the black pirate fleet in the distance. As the people of Taiwan Island, some of them went to sea to work as buddies and crew members for caravans, and some were local fishermen, so they naturally knew the ferocity of the pirates.
Three or two pirate ships, or even one pirate ship, is already very scary, tonight, there are nearly a hundred pirate ships, which one is not afraid?
Unexpectedly, these pirates, in the face of the batteries and warships in the base, were like paper paste, and they were beaten into human shapes in an instant, and the guns on the pirate ships did not even fire a single shot, and they fled.
It has to be said that after this battle, these recruits are even more proud of being a soldier of the Celestial Army.
Wei Donglai did not participate in the battle last night, although he was not too drunk, but he had only been here for less than a month, and he had only learned to shoot, although the fort had been operated several times, he was very unskilled, and he had not really fired a cannon, so he could only stare at others firing the cannon.
Through the naval battle tomorrow night, Wei Donglai has a better understanding of Zhuo Shijie's cousin.
This cousin is so powerful! In the face of so many pirate ships, it seemed so calm and breezy that he didn't even come out of the office to see how the battle was going the whole time.
It's too confident!
Sitting in the house, with just a few random orders, the pirates were defeated and fled.
However, he didn't quite understand that Zhuo Shijie defeated the pirates, but instead of celebrating the victory with a smile, he looked bitter and hateful.
Not only Wei Donglai alone, but many people also found out that their Commander Zhuo had been a little unhappy since last night. They were very puzzled, after such a big victory, his face was very ugly.
Of course, Zhuo Shijie was not happy.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, it was a bloody night by a group of pirates, and Zhuo Shijie was of course very annoyed and very annoyed.
As a commander with a strange army, Zhuo Shijie's anger must have serious consequences.
After the battle on Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhuo Shijie asked everyone to take a good rest, and on the first day of the new year, most of the people in the base spent their sleep in a huffing sound.
In the evening, Zhuo Shijie summoned Liu Laoliu and others to discuss the fight against pirates.
"It is said that the leader this time is the famous Boss Wen, this person has a lot of appetite, and he wants to replace me Zhuo Shijie, yes, he has the potential to be a hero!"
Liu Lao Liu immediately said: "With Boss Wen, there will definitely be a few yellow prawns, and the pirate leaders of the yellow prawns have always been close to Boss Wen, and they were indispensable last night!" ”
Zhuo Shijie tapped lightly on the table, nodded and said: "I don't care who there is, in short, within the surrounding area of one or two thousand miles, I will no longer allow pirates to run rampant!" ”
Hong Zhi looked embarrassed when he heard this, and said: "Commander, it's easy to defeat a few groups of pirates, but it's not easy to wipe them all out!" ”
Of course Zhuo Shijie knows this, thinking that back then, when he was a pirate, wasn't he also a cunning rabbit, there are so many small islands in the sea, there are people, there are no people, thousands of islands, it is not easy to find out all the pirates hiding in them one by one!
"Don't be afraid! Let's defeat the most powerful ones first, and take your time with the rest, one day, I will fight these pirates so that they dare not show their heads, and they will never be able to mix anymore! ”
Zhuo Shijie is confident that the surrounding waters will be clean, because he has Anne and Katarina, and when they create new weapons and equipment, it will be a piece of cake to find the hidden pirates.
However, for now, he has to take out these pirate gangs who dare to sneak up on him.
"In the next three days, we have to put on a big banquet to let the soldiers eat and drink well, which can be regarded as compensating for the Chinese New Year's Eve that has been stirred up!"
"Three days later, send out all our four large and small warships and wipe out Boss Wen and them!"
During these three days, the castle was very lively, and every day they were trained by Jack to be like dogs, and now not only did they not have to train, but they also had big fish and meat to eat, and the days were so happy that they all forgot all the miserable experiences of training.
Three days later, Zhuo Shijie began to organize men and horses to go to sea to defeat pirates.
For this anti-piracy operation, Zhuo Shijie mobilized almost all the fighters he could use, in addition to the scouts sent out, and the five hundred recruits who had just been recruited, there were enough for 200.
There are still about fifty working veterans left in the base, which can be regarded as a defensive force, in case someone attacks again.
Originally, Zhuo Shijie wanted to wait two more days and let Caterina create ten powerful warriors before attacking the pirate's lair, but he thought about it and forgot it.
The soldier is fast, he wants to catch the pirates off guard!
These pirates couldn't have imagined that before they even broke five, Zhuo Shijie led the team to take revenge.
After the expedition team was decided, Zhuo Shijie handed over the task of guarding the base to Anne and Jack. With the two of them, plus fifty veterans, even if there are no battleships, it should be easy to hold on.
Just when Zhuo Shijie and the others were about to board the ship and go to sea, an unexpected little thing happened.
A soldier hurriedly came over and reported: "Commander, Zheng Zhilong has sent a messenger to ask for a meeting!" ”
Zhuo Shijie's brows furrowed.
He hadn't forgotten what Katerina told him when he was attacked on Chinese New Year's Eve.
The probability that Zheng Zhilong will sneak up on him is 36%, which is only 5 percentage points less than the 41% of pirates! What does this mean? This means that Zheng Zhilong is now his biggest potential enemy.
He sent someone to ask to see, he must have been uneasy and kind, Zhuo Shijie refused: "I don't see it!" ”
He thought for a moment and said, "You told him that you want to talk to me?" Let Zheng Zhilong come in person! ”
This Zheng Zhilong, compared with his son Zheng Chenggong, is simply 108,000 miles behind, and Zhuo Shijie has no good impression of such a disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial person.
After this episode, Zhuo Shijie's good mood of leading the troops to the expedition inexplicably deteriorated.
After boarding the Bee Thorn, Zhuo Shijie was still a little uneasy, and asked Katarina: "Do you think this Zheng Zhilong will take advantage of our sea to fight pirates, and he will take advantage of the weakness to attack our base?" ”
Caterina said: "I think he sent an envoy this time, maybe it has something to do with the pirate attack a few nights ago, he may have come to spy on us to see if we are injured, and he can decide whether to be our enemy according to our casualties." ”
Zhuo Shijie asked puzzledly: "Why didn't you decide whether to attack us or not?" ”
A few days ago, didn't she also say that Zheng Zhilong had a great tendency to attack the castle?
Katerina said with a smile: "The situation changes from time to time, and the battle on Chinese New Year's Eve will definitely make Zheng Zhilong change his mind." ”
Hearing her words, Zhuo Shijie nodded thoughtfully.
