It was not cold in Tainan in February, and many people couldn't stand the bad environment on the boat and began to sleep in the wild.

Most of the space in the village was also vacated for some soldiers to live in, and Lu Yan was not very at ease with this pirate village, so there were still a large number of soldiers on duty at night.

Many people stayed up all night, and they were all worried about their future, including Li Kuiqi.

With this new boss, where will his future go.

The next day, he got up with a panda's eyes, and to his great surprise, there were a full eight Western ships added to Dayuan Bay.

Four of them are large ships and four small boats.

The four large ships were the "San Felipe" with a displacement of 1,000 tons and 80 guns.

"Santiago" with a displacement of 1293 tons and 80 artillery pieces.

"San Jose" with a displacement of 1006 tons and 80 artillery pieces.

"Holy Trinity" with a displacement of 1665 tons and 96 artillery pieces.

The four small ships were light clippers of more than 100 tons, such as the "Golden Deer", "Julia", and "Augustus".

The Golden Deer is particularly famous, with a displacement of only 150 tons and 18 medium guns.

Compared to this small ship, it is a very ferocious firepower configuration.

And not only did the legendary pirate Drake, who followed the British, complete the voyage, but also discovered the traces of the Spanish Armada when the Spanish Armada invaded Britain.

Then rushed to Plymouth Harbour and lit a beacon fire on the south coast of England.

The reason why Lu Yan needed these light fast ships was to let them use their speed to chase those merchant ships, destroy their sails, and then have large warships rush over to decide the victory.

As for the four giant ships, needless to say, the "Holy Trinity" is completely comparable to the "Maritime Sovereignty".

The other three are all three-deck warships, and if you take out one at random, they are all South Sea Overlord-class existences.

The Spanish and Dutch warships saw it and walked around.

So the sudden appearance of these eight warships made Li Kuiqi very surprised.

When did these ships come to Dayuan Bay, could it be that they are all Lu Yan's warships.

So he hurriedly stopped a passing soldier, "Are these our warships?" ”

The soldier took one look at it, then said, "Of course." ”

"Why didn't you see them yesterday?"

Li Kuiqi asked again.

The soldier gave him a roll of the eye, "Why do you ask so much?" Don't ask what you shouldn't. ”

After saying that, he left the place on his own.

Seeing this, Li Kuiqi couldn't help but be angry.

Nima, you are so proud of a small soldier, do you take me in your eyes.

But just joined Lu Yan's command, he didn't dare to do anything with this little soldier.

However, if these eight ships were all Lu Yan's subordinates, then Lu Yan's strength would almost double.

Lu Yan will also have the strength to fight head-on with the Daming Water Division, if Lu Yan enters the coast in the future.

Then he will definitely be able to make a lot of money out of it.

As soon as he thought of this, he felt a burst of heat.

The somewhat abrupt appearance of the ships caused a commotion in the pirate village, but after Lu Yan ordered that no one should talk about it.

However, Lu Yan's strong strength also impressed them, and it was the desire of many pirates to follow a powerful leader.

Only in this way can they not be afraid of those officers and soldiers, and can they share more goods.

After the sudden ship turmoil subsided, Lu Yan ordered the sailors on the eight ships to practice day and night, so that they could familiarize themselves with these ships as soon as possible.

The white slaves and the Japanese slaves, driven and watched by the sailors, began to work.

Their task was to cut down wood and build houses as soon as possible for the soldiers to live in.

The refugees were assigned to burn the wasteland, and it was almost time for spring ploughing, which was a real event for the peasants.

Lü Yan hoped that they could reclaim as much wasteland as possible, and even some of the sailors and artillerymen were assigned to help.

Because in the future he will capture more slaves, and these slaves will help to farm together.

After ordering some general work, Lü Yan convened a military meeting of the generals, including not only Qingji Gongzi, Deng Zilong, Yang Youji, and Meng Kuo, but also Li Kuiqi and Zhang Shiyu.

Zhang Shiyu was the leader of the group of pirates who were captured by him, and he immediately knelt down after learning that Lu Yan planned to surrender him.

He's just a little pirate, he doesn't have big ideals, his ideals are just to eat and drink well.

This was a very simple thing in later generations, but it was very difficult in this era.

Follow Lu Yan, Lu Yan can also help him achieve this goal.

Lu Yan first asked the two of them about the relevant situation in the vicinity.

They were all answerable and told him everything they knew.

Dayuan Bay is a very good port in the vicinity, and there are often some pirates who come to dock for supplies.

Therefore, Li Kuiqi also got acquainted with some pirates or sea merchants.

Among the pirates, he can be regarded as a well-known person, and even Li Dan, the most famous Chinese merchant leader in the Wa Kingdom, is also known.

When Li Dan's armed fleet passed through Taiwan, he often came here to replenish fresh water and food.

Hearing this, Lu Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Go back and set aside all those pirates' nests, and I'll come to the door to recruit them when necessary."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

Listening to Lu Yan's words, Li Kuiqi and the others couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

He dared to guarantee that the solicitation that Lu Yan said was definitely to go with a giant ship to solicit, if he listened, it was good to say, if he didn't, he might be annihilated.

"In addition to these pirates, the most important thing we should pay attention to is those headhunters."

Li Kuiqi continued.

"Headhunters?"

Lu Yan asked.

"That's right, there are several headhunter tribes not far from us, and these headhunter tribes are based on the community. Less than 500, more than 1000. The patriarchs of these tribal clans were called chiefs, along with priests and elders. ”

"These headhunter tribes are not monolithic, but divided into different forces, and every time it is time for spring ploughing, they will go out to hunt heads to sacrifice to the gods."

This made Lu Yan couldn't help but be surprised, isn't it just about spring ploughing now?

"These headhunters will not only hunt the heads of pirates, but even hunt the heads of each other's tribes, except for farming, they are almost still in a primitive society."

Li Kuiqi said with a little headache.

Li Kuiqi and the others have established a good friendship with the two headhunter tribes, and often exchange some things with them, such as farm tools, but they still have to face some sneak attacks from other headhunter tribes, which makes them miserable all the time.

"In the past, there have always been pirates who want to establish a foundation in Taiwan, including the former big pirate Wang Zhi, but under the constant attacks of those headhunters, they still can't gain a foothold in the end."

Li Kuiqi said.

In fact, the reason why they took refuge in Lu Yan also meant that they were counting on them to help resist the headhunters.
