Zheng Sen and Zheng Zhibao came to take a three-masted warship of about 200 tons, and the Zhousou warship was equipped with 25 six-pounder guns and five twelve-pounder guns.

Now Zheng Zhibao and Zheng Sen are standing on the bow of the ship, observing the port that is constantly being built in the distance. Zheng Zhibao put down the clairvoyant mirror, and said in amazement: "Asen, look at the port in front of you, it's good, they can build such a high house with stones, and those docks, it's so long, I don't know how they do it, it looks very straight." ”

Now Zheng Zhibao's fleet is still about ten miles away from the dock, and they can already see the shape of the dock clearly through the clairvoyant mirror, and the neat buildings in the port also surprised him very much.

"Fourth uncle, it seems that they have built the dock very carefully!" Zheng Sen also said slowly with a calm face: "From this point, it can be seen that that person in Qingzhou attaches great importance to the sailor, and he will definitely be our fierce rival in the future. Well? They've got boats coming toward us, and there's quite a few of them! ”

As they spoke, the ten ships split into two groups and flanked them from the menacing left and right.

Zheng Zhibao and Zheng Sen were almost happy when they saw such a situation, Zheng Zhibao scolded angrily: "Damn, Lao Tzu has followed his eldest brother across the East and South Seas for more than ten years, and he has always been our dumplings. ”

Zheng Sen frowned, raised the clairvoyant mirror and slowly observed the warship in front of him, and slowly his face changed, "Fourth uncle, something is wrong, these warships are not quite the same as the ships we have seen in ordinary times, you see, their ships are too big, this is by no means an ordinary warship, is it the Dafu ship that Liu Laoliu said?" ”

At this time, Zheng Zhibao also saw the warships that were rushing towards him through the clairvoyant mirror, his face was not good-looking, as the components of the distance approached, those warships gradually revealed their figures, these warships reminded that they were tall, the hull was divided into three layers, and the gun emplacements of the hull were still open, revealing the muzzles of the black holes on both sides, which was clearly a posture of preparing for war.

"These raw melons and eggs, do you want to rebel?" Zheng Zhibao's face was pale, thinking that since their Zheng family destroyed Liu Xianghe and defeated the fleet of the Dutch East India Company, it had been a long time since the fleet dared to provoke them like this, and now such a guy who dared to touch the tiger's ass really made him angry enough.

"Come on, order the brothers to form a battle formation, and give those raw melons and eggs who don't know what to do a good job of giving a look." Zheng Zhibao, who was so angry that he was screaming, was about to command his subordinates to give the ships in front of him a look, he didn't care where he was, he only knew that whoever dared to move the fleet with the banner of his Zheng family would be ready to make a comeback at a heavy price.

Zheng Sen didn't stop Zheng Zhibao's actions, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see the strength of the Qingzhou Sailor, as for what kind of consequences this would have, this was not within the scope of Zheng Sen's consideration, after all, would a lion care about the idea of a sheep!

The flotilla of ten Dafu ships that rushed over was led by Mo Hui, the deputy commander of the naval division, and at this time he was constantly ordering the flag bearers around him to wave flags to the four ships behind him, ordering them to follow the formation and not fall behind.

"My lord, the fleet ahead has launched an attack formation against us!" At this time, the lookout on the back mast reported loudly to Mo Hui.

"Got it!" Mo Hui coldly continued to order: "Order the gunners to fire three solid shells at the front, and the flag-bearer will signal them, order them to report their calendars immediately, and slow down to be checked, otherwise we will attack them!" ”

"Yes!"

"Boom Boom"

Three rumbling cannons rang out, and three black projectiles flew out of the cannon chamber under the impetus of powerful gunpowder kinetic energy and fell to a place more than 300 steps away from Zheng Zhibao and their fleet, and the projectiles rushed into the water and splashed three waves.

"What, they dare to fire first?" Zheng Zhibao, who was standing at the bow of the boat, looked at the splash of the projectile in front of him after it fell into the sea, shocked and angry.

"My lord, they called the flag." At this time, the lookout on the mast reported loudly.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!" Enraged, Zheng Zhibao gritted his teeth and gurgled his teeth.

"My lord, they said let's report our calendars and stop the ship for inspection, or they're going to open fire."

Zheng Zhibao was completely exploded when he heard this, "Bastard, order the brothers to open the gun position, quickly load the ammunition, and listen to my orders to prepare to open the cannon!" ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the lookout of the part-time flag bearer above heard this, he was about to start waving the flag, but he was stopped by another person.

"Wait." A voice sounded below, this voice was resolute with a hint of childishness, Zheng Zhibao didn't need to look at it to know that it was his precious nephew Zheng Sen.

Zheng Sen grabbed Zheng Zhibao's hand and said, "Fourth uncle, you can't open the cannon, if we fire the cannon, we will completely tear our faces with them." ”

"Tear it up, tear it, I'm afraid of a ball!" Although Zheng Zhibao is not big, but his temper is notoriously irritable, when he wanted to fight with another sea giant Liu Xiang, he was hit three times and still took the lead in fighting, in that battle he cut off more than ten heads in a row, and he was a famous general among the Zheng brothers.

"No, have you forgotten the purpose of our visit? If we fire a gun, we won't be able to go ashore! Zheng Sen still insisted on his opinion, and a pair of big bright eyes shot a resolute light.

Looking at the eyes of the future head of the Zheng family, the expression on Zheng Zhibao's face changed for a while before he let out a long sigh and ordered the flag bearer to lower the mainsail to slow down, and report his origin to the fleet in front.

"My lord, they said that they were subordinates of Zheng Zhilong, a guerrilla general in Fujian's coastal defense, and they came to visit General Pang."

On the Daifuku ship, the lookout on the mast translated the flag sent from the opposite side sentence by sentence to Mo Hui, the deputy commander of the sailors.

"What, it's Fujian Zheng Zhilong's subordinates?" Mo Hui was shocked in his heart, he had naturally heard of this sea thief who had been crisscrossing the East China Sea and the South China Sea for more than ten years, and when he heard it, he became even more careful, "Order the fleet to come up, surround them, and escort them into the harbor." ”

With Mo Hui's order, the ten Daifuku ships immediately quickly approached, forming an encirclement, the gun emplacements on the ship were wide open, and the muzzles of the black hole were aimed at the fleet inside, and in this way, they were dragged into the harbor of Wanghai Fort.
