Since the islanders of Hengshan Island were forced to kill the Japanese people, Hengshan Island could no longer collude with the Japanese people, and after this battle, Hengshan Island's strength was greatly injured and could no longer pose a threat to Pingdao, so Li Xingjiu promised to board the "Flying Fish".

"You are a real man, you should have a wider world, not limited to this small island!" Ren Siqi said.

Li Xingjiu thought deeply of Ren Siqi's words, he had long wanted to see the sky outside, but Pingdao, who had grown up since he was a child, had always made him unable to let go, and now he took this opportunity to break through and make a man's career!

Sakurako cried and had to follow Li Xingjiu to the boat, and Li Xingjiu looked at Ren Siqi in embarrassment.

Ren Siqi thought for a while and agreed, but said that when the ship returned to Daishan, he could give the two of them a home there, and Sakura would no longer be able to follow the ship all the time.

The "Exocet" traveled north along the island chain of the Ryukyu Islands and arrived in Japanese waters in five or six days.

Looking ahead through the clairmile, the long coastline with no end in sight should be the Japanese island of Kyushu. The destination of the Flying Fish was the port of Nagasaki on the west side of Kyushu Island, which was the only port of trade with the outside world opened by the Japanese shogunate.

The "Flying Fish" circled the coast far to the northwest, and the Japanese ships could be seen near the coast, and when some ships wanted to come forward for interrogation, the "Flying Fish" completely ignored them, and relied on the ship to throw the Japanese ships behind at a high speed.

In the sea not far from the "Exocet", a Dutch ship larger than the "Exocet" was breaking the wind and waves.

In the bow command room, the bearded Dutch captain Geert put down the binoculars in his hand and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's all because of the damn hurricane, so we came to Japan three days late, but we finally arrived. I don't know if the poor 'Sam' will be able to find the right course. Geert sighed to Pete, the first mate on the side.

Pete, on the other hand, was a very handsome young man, well-dressed and dashing.

"Mr. Captain, if the 'Sam' does not arrive in Japan on time, it will be a good thing for us, we can take the opportunity to raise the price of raw silk, and you can make a lot more profit than in previous years!" Pete said solemnly.

Geert unbuttoned the second button of his shirt to make his fat neck more comfortable, and although he agreed with Pete's words, he still wanted to beat the young man.

"Dear Pete, although your words are very reasonable, but you have forgotten one thing, that is, you have forgotten the Ming people, these Ming people have much more raw silk than us, and they have more pricing power over raw silk!"

Pete disagreed with Geert's words: "Mr. Captain, do you think that those Junk ships of the Akito are better than our Dutch ships, our 'Princess' has worked hard to escape from that hurricane, and the Akito's boat may not escape the fate of being destroyed by the hurricane, and even if it can escape, it will not be possible to reach Japan earlier than us!" ”

Geert raised the telescope: "Pete, maybe what you said makes sense, but don't underestimate the Ming people, they are more familiar with this sea area than us!" Oh no, God, guess what I saw? 'Shark'! Isn't it missing? Why did you appear here like a ghost again? ”

Hearing this, Pete raised his glasses: "Mr. Captain, I'm afraid that the 'Shark' is not missing, but has become a prisoner of the Ming people." Look at the flag fluttering on its mast, it is a very unfamiliar fish pattern, but it is in line with the taste of the Ming people, and the text next to the flag, which is clearly the Ming text! ”

"Oh God! It's not true, turn the rudder quickly, go intercept it. Geert commanded loudly.

The Dutch ship "Princess" was ordered by Geert to turn its direction and cut off the head of the "Exocet" that appeared in the east direction.

-----------------------------------

"There's a big ship ahead!" On the Exocet, lookouts were the first to spot the Dutch ship.

Ren Siqi raised the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, and saw a big boat passing diagonally in the distance ahead.

"Oh my God! That's the Princess! Captain Oliel exclaimed.

"You mean it's a Dutch ship?" Ren Siqi asked Olier seriously.

"Yes, Mr. Shipper. This is the "Princess", they must have recognized our ship, in the big man, there is no ship that does not recognize the "Shark"! We have to escape, the 'Princess' is equipped with twenty guns, each of which is no smaller than the caliber of the 'Exocet' guns, we can't kill them!" "Olier is now working for Ren Siqi and has become a 'traitor', so he naturally doesn't want his former compatriots to find out, so he suggested to Ren Siqi.

Hearing that there were as many as 20 guns on the "Princess", Ren Siqi knew that the "Flying Fish" could not kill the other party at all, so he immediately ordered to escape.

In this vast sea, the two sides are seven or eight miles apart, and if one party wants to escape, it is difficult for the other side to catch up.

However, the Exocet was heading north, east to the coast of Kyushu Island, while the Dutch ship Princess was heading in front of the Exocet from the west. If the direction of both sides does not change, the "Exocet" will just be stopped by the other side.

However, the "Exocet" did not have a good chance of escaping, and to the east was the coast, and to the west was the approaching Dutch ship, and unless it turned south and fled into the ocean, it would be possible to get rid of the other party, but if it went south, it would be farther and farther away from Nagasaki.

"Turn the rudder to north-east!" Ren Siqi gritted his teeth and gave an order in a deep voice.

"But there are so many islands there!" Oliel exclaimed. To the east-north, there are a long islands that can easily run aground if they are too close to them.

"I can't care so much, just turn the rudder according to my orders!" Ren Siqi said sharply.

The helmsman turned the rudder, and the Exocet headed for the distant archipelago.

The "Princess" is getting closer and closer to the "Exocet", from seven or eight miles at the beginning to three or four miles away, and has entered the range of artillery.

Following the order of Captain Geert, the guns on the side of the "Princess" began to fire, and the shells crossed the sea surface for three or four miles, making a huge splash around the "Exocet". However, with both sides moving, the hit rate of the artillery was pitiful.

The "Exocet" did not return fire, but simply drove forward desperately, and finally when the "Princess" was still more than two miles away from itself, it successfully passed through the middle of the two small islands and sailed into the archipelago area.

"Mr. Captain, what should I do?" First mate Pete asked Geert for instructions.

Geert frowned and looked at the archipelago ahead, but did not dare to risk running aground and ordered the pursuit to enter it.

"Now that we know where they're going, we're waiting for them in front!" Geert suddenly laughed and ordered
