Chapter 517: Might
The Watanabe family did have the heart of death, and Zhu Gaoxi's sudden departure made the Watanabe patriarch very unhappy, but he was helpless, and now the enemy had no choice but to make a last stand. Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info as long as they can pick up arms, they are all dispatched, even so, he has no bottom in his heart, and he has no chance of winning in the face of Tang Ming's invincible warships.
But what made him even more desperate also appeared at this time, only to see a strange thing suddenly floating in Tang Ming's fleet, and when the Watanabe patriarch was wondering what Tang Ming meant, the hot air balloon approached the Watanabe family's fleet at the fastest speed.
Immediately after that, black porcelain jars, filled with fierce fire oil, burned from mid-air and fell from the sky, and a hundred hot air balloons were lined up, and almost every meter forward, a hundred burning fire oil canisters were thrown down at the same time. And so a shocking scene appeared.
The area covered by the Watanabe family's fleet immediately became a sea of fire, and the burning oil continued to burn in the sea, even if it did not hit the ship.
Almost a dozen breaths, after the first round of hot air balloon attacks, the Watanabe family's originally dense fleet immediately lost more than half.
Before everyone could react, the hot air balloon in mid-air turned back again, and Patriarch Watanabe yelled at the archers with a green face to shoot the damn thing down.
It's a pity that at an altitude of more than 500 meters, even if the bow and arrow can shoot a hot air balloon, it can't cause any damage. Li Ba was the captain of the hot air balloon team this time, and he had already seen the Watanabe patriarch shouting with his telescope who was directing the ship.
A cruel smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he immediately ordered an attack on the command ship, and the incendiary and powder shells instantly covered all the remaining ships.
Before the Watanabe patriarch and several elders could escape, they were hit by several incendiary bombs, and they were instantly surrounded by a sea of fire that could not be extinguished.
Nearly 1,000 ships, large and small, were all buried in the fire in less than an hour, and the Watanabe family was almost helpless.
Yan Ruwei, who was standing beside Tang Ming, immediately broke out in a big drop of cold sweat on his forehead, and at this moment, his eyes were complicated when he looked at Tang Ming, scared, shocked and stunned.
Looking at the place where the Watanabe family's dense fleet was located just now, but at this moment, it was already surrounded by raging fire, and along the sea breeze, Yan Ruwei could now feel the amazing heat coming to his face.
He secretly imagined his fleet in the Watanabe family's place, and the result made him feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
At this moment, Yan Ruwei firmly believed that he should not become an enemy with Tang Ming no matter what, no matter how big a loss he suffered, he could not be an enemy with him. He had already made up his mind that when he returned, he must inform the king of the scene he had just seen, and prevent him from embarking on the old path of the Watanabe family.
The fear in Yan Ruwei's heart, Tang Ming, who was beside him, clearly felt that this was exactly what he needed. Only by making those potential enemies fear him enough can they prevent them from falling into the trap or doing something bad for them when they are in danger.
For Takeo, Tang Ming can let it go, because the current ancient dynasty is no different from in his hands. Whether it is at sea or on land, Takeo's current power has been hollowed out by Tang Ming. Therefore, Takeo did not pose a threat to Tang Ming at all, so he could naturally leave him alone.
But Luzon is different, Tang Ming can't take care of it now, so before he starts a big war with Daming, it is necessary to show his strength and stop their fancy thoughts. In this way, Tang Ming will have no worries, and he will be able to deal with Zhu Di wholeheartedly this time, and it is very likely that he will attack recklessly.
Judging from the fear that Yan Ruwei showed just now, Tang Ming was very satisfied with this effect. With a hint of hideousness at the corners of his mouth, he ordered the fleet to move forward at full speed. All the people who can be dispatched by the Watanabe family are in the fire, and now there should be only a few people left in the family who are too old to move.
But for the sake of insurance, Tang Ming still asked Li Ba to raze the Watanabe family's mansion with a hot air balloon, and then he and Yan Ruwei landed on the island with nearly 10,000 soldiers.
The Watanabe family was wiped out, and the news spread across the island country as quickly as possible, and the whole country became known in less than half a day. After they learned that it was Tang Ming who destroyed the Watanabe family, some people were afraid and some people were very active. The people who were afraid were those who had been close to the Watanabe family before.
But the rejoicing are those small families who have always been dissatisfied with the Watanabe family, they know that Tang Ming is not interested in ruling the island country, so they know that the time is when the good fortune of their small families comes. These people are all rushing to Nagasaka as soon as possible for their families to turn over in this luck.
After Tang Ming completely controlled Nagasaka with an army of nearly 10,000 people, these small family patriarchs who turned over with salted fish also arrived one after another.
Tang Ming had just settled in Changsaka, and before his buttocks were hot, Li Ba sent a large stack of worship posts, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the people of this island country are really strange, their compatriots have been destroyed, and they don't have the same hatred as the enemy." It's really incomprehensible that he licked his face and came up to make friends with us! β
Tang Ming picked up those worship posts and watched, and said lightly: "What's so puzzling about this, the island country is now a family system, and the whole country is not completely unified. It's just that with the power and strength of that family, they can do whatever they want, and now that the big family of Watanabe has fallen, the small families below have a chance to come to power, what can they do if they don't seize the opportunity. β
Li Ba touched the back of his head, pouted and said: "I understand the reason, it's just that I can't get used to these mercenary people, and I don't talk about morality at all." Anyway, we are also foreign invaders, so they are not worried at all, we will take the entire island country? β
Tang Ming squinted at Li Ba and said with a wry smile: "Do you think that we now have the ability to take down the entire island country?" Don't be too naΓ―ve, at present, there is a country around Daming that has this ability. It is still possible to destroy the entire island nation, but it is difficult to control him. Okay, don't think about all this mess, first take someone to collect all the existing gunpowder in Nagasaka, that's the point! β
Li Ba smiled and immediately turned around and flashed, just now he was just complaining, in fact, he also understood in his heart that although the island country was good, it was not suitable for Tang Ming in front of him. A Ryukyu Island has not been taken care of by Tang Ming until now, and there is still the heart to occupy the island country. (To be continued.) )
