Chapter 497: A Great Misunderstanding

The sun was so blue that there was not a single cloud in the sky, and the weather of nearly thirty-one years on this sea would make people dizzy if they were directly exposed to the sun. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But in this extremely hot weather, hundreds of warships floated quietly on the sea level, and the flagpole followed the warm sea breeze fluttering with the Ming flag.

Directly in front of this fleet, in the distance, there were also hundreds of warships floating quietly, and from their fluttering flags, it could be seen that they were the warships of Luzon and the ancient dynasties.

Yan Ruwei stood on the bow deck of the treasure ship, holding a telescope purchased from Tang Ming at a high price in his hand, and had been staring at the Daming fleet nearly a thousand meters away in front of him for a long time. Yan Ruwei's face was frighteningly white at the moment, obviously he couldn't have imagined that the island country would be able to invite the Ming Navy.

"It seems that we don't need to fight, while the distance between the two sides is still far away, we may be able to turn around immediately and return to China safely!" Yan Ruwei's face was blue-gray, and he was unwilling to speak.

At this moment, Takeo was in the same boat as him, so he stood beside him, and he was also holding a telescope in his hand to observe Daming's fleet. But his inner thoughts at this time were different from Yan Ruwei's disappointment, licking his somewhat dry lips, he said: "It is still impossible to determine that the front is the fleet of the Ming Dynasty, no matter from any point of view, the Ming Dynasty will definitely not send a navy to help the island country." ”

Hearing this, Yan Ruwei was surprised: "Why? ”

Asked by Lao Yan, Takeo seemed to be more firm in his thoughts, and sneered: "Because Daming has been harassed by the Japanese invaders of the island country for a long time, the hatred has long been formed, and it is impossible to come to help the island country and attack us!" ”

Yan Ruwei shook his head and said, "Then why is there a Ming navy there before, although I can't see how many warships there are now." But the flag flying above is very real, and it cannot be faked at all. ”

Seeing is believing, Lao Yan's eyes clearly saw the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and now no matter whether Takeo's tongue turns the lotus, he has made up his mind to return to the sea. In the face of Daming's battleship, Yan Ruwei has completely lost confidence, and it is not so easy to destroy the Watanabe family with the current strength of the two of them, not to mention the navy from Daming, it is even more hopeless.

Just as Lao Yan turned around and wanted to give the order to return, Takeo on the side said at this time: "Don't you think this is the Watanabe family's tricks?" ”

After seeing Lao Yan's foot retracted, Takeo continued: "In order to be able to scare the two of us away, don't you suspect that this is a little trick played by the Watanabe family." What's so difficult about planting the flag of Daming on the ship, if it's really Daming's fleet, we will turn around and leave, I don't have any opinion. ”

"But this is just a good show for the Watanabe family, and we missed the good opportunity to destroy the Watanabe family, so we were scared away by it, do you think it's so willing?"

Takeo's analysis is very reasonable, Yan Ruwei's confidence just now has begun to waver, especially when Takeo said that he is likely to be deceived, he is even more hesitant.

The look on Lao Yan's face was already very revealing, and Takeo was even more sure that he had begun to be tempted, and he no longer sold Guanzi, and said bluntly: "If you and I each send ten ships out to test, at least after verifying their integrity, it's not too late for us to make a conclusion!" You say, don't you? ”

Takeo's words at this moment seemed to be full of magic, which made Lao Yan's heart already waver, and he wanted to follow his proposal uncontrollably.

After he turned his head and stared at the Daming fleet in the distance again for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and agreed to Takeo's proposal. If misfortune is really said by Takeo, the Daming fleet in front of him is just a bluff by the Watanabe family. And he didn't even dare to test the truth, if this kind of thing was spread in the future, wouldn't he become a big laughing stock.

On a treasure ship of the Chinese army in the Ming fleet, Zhu Gaoxi threw away the telescope in his hand impatiently, and had been waiting here for a morning. Now they finally waited for the warships of Luzon and the ancient dynasties, but after so much time, they didn't make any movements, and they stayed at a distance of more than a thousand meters.

If the other party wanted to escape, he would never be able to catch up at such a distance, so he did not dare to give the order to attack the other party. Zhu Gaoxi knew that the only thing he could do at this moment was to wait quietly, as long as the other party arrived at the place where he could pursue, the only way to wait for them was to perish.

Zhu Gaoxi, who had lost his patience, was thinking about it and directly ordered an attack, but suddenly heard the guard who took over the binoculars and paid attention to the enemy for him shouted in surprise: "Here, they finally sent a warship." ”

The stunned was just a moment, and Zhu Gaoxi snatched the telescope and looked at it himself. Sure enough, seeing that the flotilla had not moved for a long time, the fleet finally began to leave, and approached them quickly.

The joy on Zhu Gaoxi's face lasted less than ten breaths, and then he lowered his face again, because he saw that only twenty warships were coming. This was not enough for a salvo of naval artillery, which also showed that the enemy had sent these ships to conduct a test shot.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxi was also very hesitant in his heart, he didn't know whether to directly kill these twenty warships first, or let them come to test it, and add cowardice to lead his army to come, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.

Countless thoughts flashed in his mind in an instant, Zhu Gaoxi didn't hesitate for too long, turned around and walked towards the houseboat, and ordered before leaving: "The main sails are all raised, be ready to attack at any time, as for these twenty battleships that come to test, don't let go of any of them." Don't send the target in vain, hit, hit me hard! ”

As Zhu Gaoxi's order was transmitted to the entire fleet, the sea area, which had been silent all morning, finally began to become busy. Because Zhu Gaoxi's order was given in a bit haste, this caused the entire fleet to panic for a moment.

But this scene just fell into the eyes of Takeo and Yan Ruwei, and the former unconsciously showed a trace of pride at the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Look, we just sent twenty warships to test it, and they immediately became like this." Lao Yan, do you have anything to suspect now? ”

Yan Ruwei put down the binoculars, and there was a slight embarrassment on his face, but he was quickly hidden: "I was confused for a while, and I was too careful, but fortunately, Lao Wu, you saw through the little tricks of the Watanabe family with your keen eyes." Now that it is certain that those ships are not the Ming Dynasty, the opportunity must not be lost and will not come again, why don't we order the whole army to attack now? (To be continued.) )
