Chapter 181: Occupation (Part II)
On one side is a long-standing bandit who has grown up on a ship since he was a child, and he is accustomed to robbery and fighting. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Song Liben's side is also an experienced veteran sailor, and the victory over the Dutch fleet in Japan has boosted everyone's morale. Although the inspection department was newly established and the establishment of the navy was still young, the so-called newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and their fighting spirit is very strong. Among them, there are more than a dozen Japanese samurai led by Yamada Futaro, who have extremely strong melee combat ability.
If there was a broadside battle on this, Song Li was confident that he would completely annihilate the other party, even if the other party had one more two-masted sailing ship than him. However, not far behind, there is still the main force of the opponent's fleet, and if it is entangled here, when the opponent's main force comes up, he will be completely annihilated.
"Turn the rudder!" Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, Song Liben had to give an order.
The rudder turned, and the two-masted sailboat that Song Liben was riding on passed by the sailboat coming from the other side, and the sound of "bangla" could be heard when the sides of the two sides rubbed against each other.
"Set fire!" At the sound of an order, more than a dozen lit fire pots were thrown towards the opponent's deck, and more than a dozen fires suddenly ignited on the opponent's ship, one of which was still too high, and was smashing on the towering mast, where the clay pot was broken, and the fire oil was poured on the sail, and suddenly there was a fire on the sail.
Since the war with the Dutch in Japan and the burning of a large ship by fire, Ren Siqi and his men have carefully studied the fire attack. The ships of this age were made of wood, and it was difficult to extinguish them when they were ignited.
After discussing and researching with his subordinates, many methods of arson were proposed. For example, you can make fire pots of various sizes, use different levels of boat battles, such as you can use a rope to tie a fire pot, you can throw a fire pot farther with a rope in one hand, and so on. In short, for the current Daishan Inspection Division, the regulations on arson in naval battles have been formed.
Gu Rongfang's ships were all attacked by fire pots to varying degrees, and they all caught fire. For these fishermen and pirates, the boat is their foundation, but also their greatest wealth, with the boat they can fish, can rob, many people see their boat on fire, do not care about attacking each other, choose to extinguish the fire first.
However, there were many fierce pirates who chose to attack each other, completely ignoring the flames of their own ships.
The pirate ship that passed by with Song Liben on the two-masted sailing ship threw out more than a dozen flying claws, and was grabbing the side of the two-masted sailing ship, and more than a dozen pirates flew over with a shout.
Yamada Futaro smiled coldly, his face full of scars was so ugly, and he brandished a long knife and headed towards a pirate.
"Try to keep your mouth alive!" Song Liben suddenly shouted.
Yamada Kazetaro was stunned, but the long knife in his hand did not stop, but his wrist was slightly flipped and the back of the knife was slashed at the neck of the pirate who came to the world, and the pirate rolled his eyes, fell on the deck with a pop, and fell unconscious.
Yamada Kazetaro's dozen Japanese subordinates, all of whom were the most elite Japanese samurai, were sent to Song Liben by Ren Siqi, and their combat power far exceeded that of ordinary pirates, just a moment of effort, and the pirates who crossed over were overturned on the deck, but most of them were still alive.
At this time, if you take advantage of the situation to kill the opponent's ship, you can easily seize the opponent's ship, but Song Liben did not do that, but ordered to cut off the opponent's flying claws, and the ship rushed forward.
It was just one round, and the five ships that he was responsible for intercepting were all caught in the flames, and the enemy easily rushed out of the encirclement and left, Gu Rong shouted angrily.
In addition to being angry, Gu Rong was also secretly frightened, the combat power shown by the other party was beyond his expectations, it seemed that this bone was not easy to gnaw.
Now that the other party has broken out of the encirclement, it is impossible to completely annihilate the other party. Out of this complex sea area, as long as the other party wants to escape, he can escape no matter what, on the sea, it is easy to defeat the enemy, but it is difficult to completely annihilate the other party, as a pirate for many years, Gu Rong naturally knows this truth.
"The big boss, Liu Laosan, a few of them were arrested by the other party." One of his subordinates reported to Gu Rong. Liu Laosan was the leader of the fleet that intercepted Song Liben, the one who wanted to rob the opponent's ship with his ferocity, but was knocked unconscious by Yamada Futaro.
"Let's make peace!" Gu Rong sighed and had to compromise. If he attacks the other party again, his henchman Liu Laosan will be killed by the other party, which Gu Rong does not want to see. Where the hell did this Raptors come from? Gu Rong suddenly became curious.
A fast boat sailed towards Song Liben's fleet, which was the envoy sent by Gu Rong.
"What? Let's surrender! Did you take the wrong medicine? Although we don't have as many people and ships as you, you can't catch us, it's a big deal for Lao Tzu to go to other places to open mountains and set up cabinets, and want me to surrender, but it's a dream! Song Liben took a disdainful "phew" and ordered Gu Rong's envoy to be expelled.
"Our big boss wants to know, you are a good man there, why did you come to the waters of the Shengsi Islands?" The messenger struggled and cried out.
"Lao Tzu came from the Wa Kingdom, offended the local daimyo and had to return to the Ming Dynasty." Song Liben snorted and said the origin of his fabrication.
"It turned out to be from the Wa Kingdom, no wonder there are so many Wa warriors under his command." Gu Rong sighed, "He said he was going to set up a cabinet elsewhere?" ”
"Yes, big boss." The messenger replied.
"It's a pity to go to other places for such a character, if only I could vote under Lao Tzu." Gu Rong suddenly had a heart of love for talent.
Gu Rongneng is famous in the waters of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and he can lead thousands of pirates to attack Chongming Island, which naturally has its advantages. Whether it is in the Shengsi Islands, or on other islands in Zhoushan, or even in the fishing villages along the mainland, Gu Rong has many friends, which is why he can gather thousands of pirates to attack Chongming.
Now seeing a strong pirate coming here from the Wa Kingdom, Gu Rong couldn't help but think of accepting it.
So, the messenger was sent out again to negotiate with Song Liben.
"When you first come here, you must not know that our Gu Da Boss is a famous man in the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang Seas, and last year he even laid down Chongming Island, and even the officials and soldiers are afraid of the prestige of the big boss."
"Our great master has said that he has seen that you have just arrived here, and that those who do not know are not guilty, and he has forgiven you for your offense, and invited you to join the group. If you are willing to join the gang, the big boss is willing to worship you as a brother and let you be the second master of Sijiao Mountain! ”
Song Liben was overjoyed, if he could break into the other party, his strategy and that of the inspector would be half successful. I was surprised in my heart, but my face was not revealed.
"How do I know if your boss is sincere, or is he coaxing me?" Song Liben said lightly.
"In this sea area, who doesn't know that Gu Da is in charge! The big boss said that as long as you agree to join the gang, he is willing to make a blood alliance with you! (To be continued.) )
