The sound of artillery rumbled, columns of water were constantly splashed on the water, and gunpowder smoke filled the sea. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info watermark ad test watermark ad test There are wreckage of warships floating everywhere, and many sailors are swimming in the sea, even though they know that the chances of survival are small, but they still keep swimming.

Zheng Zhilong looked at the fleet in front of him with a cold face, his face was gloomy and terrifying, the battle had already begun for half an hour, and his side had already lost a third of his manpower! This made Zheng Zhilong hurt to the bone, and there was only one thought in his heart, that is, regretting not being at the beginning.

This was on the way back to Taiwan, Zheng Zhilong had completely annihilated the Dutch fleet two days earlier, which had made Zheng Zhilong feel very good. originally thought that the moment for him to dominate the Taiwan Strait was coming, but when Zheng Zhilong returned to Keelung Port, he fell from heaven to hell in an instant.

"Big brother, the artillery fire of the imperial court is too fierce, their battleships are too powerful, we are not opponents!" Wiping a handful of seawater on his face, Zheng Zhihu gasped, came to Zheng Zhilong's side, and said loudly.

The sound of the cannon did not annihilate Zheng Zhihu's voice, but made Zheng Zhilong hear it more clearly! I was too careless, I originally heard that there was a navy in the imperial court, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful!

"Did you get in touch with the people on the island? What's going on on the island? Zheng Zhilong didn't look back, and his voice didn't fluctuate in the slightest, as if all this was not in his heart.

Zheng Zhihu on the side knows his eldest brother very well, although his eldest brother did not lose his temper, but Zheng Zhihu knew that his eldest brother was already angry. This was evident from his shaking hands, and he was simply suppressing his anger.

"Big brother, someone from the island just came over and brought news from the island! Now the island has been occupied by the official army of the imperial court, and the strength of the official army is very strong, and we will not be able to fight it. It was Xu Xinsu who led the officers and soldiers. He has been on the island, and he knows us and "! When it comes to Xu Xinsu, Zheng Zhihu's teeth itch with hatred, for such a rebellious person. Zheng Zhihu can be said to hate him to the bone.

Zheng Zhilong's brows also furrowed. I didn't expect Xu Xinsu to take refuge in the imperial court, he was really mad! Although the relationship between Zheng Zhilong and Xu Xinsu is not good. But everyone is always the same kind of person, and now Xu Xinsu has turned his back on these people, which makes Zheng Zhilong very angry.

"Big brother, let's go! The officers and troops have already surrounded them. Let's not go anymore! Where there is life, there is hope. The loss of our strength is too serious, and if we continue to fight, we will also hit the stone with an egg! Zheng Zhihu looked at the official and military warships that surrounded him not far away, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and he said loudly to Zheng Zhilong.

During the time it was said, several more warships were sunk. Zheng Zhilong's teeth were about to be crushed! The artillery of the officers and soldiers is very good, and the range is much longer than their own. Their own ships can't be compared at all, and some rushed over, but they were sunk by the fire dragon of the official army!

Close your eyes gently. Zheng Zhilong glanced back at his younger brother and said in a deep voice, "Where else can we go?" With such a powerful warship in the officers and soldiers, where is our place! ”

"Big brother, the world is so big, where can't you stay! We can go to the country, we can go to Nanyang, as long as we leave here, we can still do a great job! Zheng Zhihu looked at his eldest brother nervously, he didn't understand the eldest brother who had always been ambitious, what was wrong today!

Shaking his head with a wry smile, the Wa State is no longer the original Wa State, and the current Wa State is closed to the country. What's more, he participated in the coup d'état in the Japanese State at the beginning, and when he arrived in the Japanese State, he was probably also the fate of being purged. As for the South Seas, it was simply the territory of the Dutch and the Spaniards, and it was not the same result if they went like this.

"Big brother, there is still a glimmer of life when you leave, if you wait here, we will die!" Zheng Zhihu grabbed Zheng Zhilong, with a pleading look on his face, and said loudly.

Nodding slowly, Zheng Zhilong said in a deep voice: "You're right, I, Zheng Zhilong, can't die here!" Let the fleet turn around, and we will go straight to the South Seas! The world is big, this is just a family business, without our three brothers earning! ”

Yu Zhigao stood on the bow of the boat, watching Zheng Zhilong's boat turn around, a trace of worry flashed on his face, he glanced back at Zhang Yukun, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Shi, if you go on like this, Zheng Zhilong will run away!" Although their ships do not have enough range, they are not slow! ”

"Run? Where to run? If I just ran away from them, then I might not be able to stop them, and now I want to run, it's too late! Zhang Yunkun looked at the battlefield with confidence, with a little smile on his face, and he looked like he was holding a pearl of wisdom.

When Zheng Zhilong turned the bow of the ship, the battleship quickly moved forward at full speed, but soon Zheng Zhilong noticed that something was wrong. In front of him appeared several inconspicuous boats, but they were far away from him, and they were not within Ben's range.

However, this is not what worries Zheng Zhilong, but what is intercepted in front of him! Zheng Zhilong is very familiar with these things, this is a mine! However, these are not the mines that Zheng Zhilong is familiar with, because this is a new equipment of the firearms factory!

Unlike traditional mines, this mine is not a timed mine, let alone a traditional detonating mine, but a more advanced triggered mine. Able to float on the surface of the water for three hours without silence, as long as the warship touches it, it will definitely be detonated.

"Big brother, it's all mines! What are we going to do? Zheng Zhihu's face was gloomy, looking at the mine in front of him, his heart suddenly felt powerless.

Zheng Zhilong's face suddenly sank, with a bit of hideousness on his face, and he said loudly: "Fire at the mines, detonate all the mines!" Let the boat detonate in front, and if it doesn't work, send the water ghost into the water. Clear the mines as soon as possible, we don't have time! Zheng Zhilong quickly made arrangements and passed on the order.

Explosions suddenly sounded on the surface of the sea again, and the sound of mines and artillery blended with each other, and the entire sea surface was filled with gunsmoke.

"Big brother, it's too late! The officers and soldiers caught up, and we couldn't rush out! Zheng Zhihu looked depressed, looked at Zheng Zhilong, and waited for his eldest brother's decision.

"Since ancient times, it has been difficult to die only once, that's it! Raise the white flag, let's surrender! Zheng Zhilong closed his eyes in pain, his face was defeated, and his whole body was trembling.

Zheng Zhihu looked at his eldest brother in disbelief, his lips trembled, and he wanted to say something several times, but he didn't say it.

Looking at the white flag raised high on the opposite side, Yu Shigao frowned slightly, and was about to order them to be wiped out, but Zhang Yukun on the side stopped: "Accept their surrender, capture the living and the dead, this credit is not the same." Capturing the enemy chieftain alive is a great achievement! ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi!" Of course, Yu Zhigao knew this, but he wanted to eliminate Zheng Zhilong directly, and he always felt that it would be a disaster to keep this person! But Zhang Yukun said so, and Yu Zhigao just listened.

Beijing City, Forbidden City, Early Dynasty!

Emperor Apocalypse's gaze swept over the faces of the ministers, stretched out his hand and shook off the fold in his hand, and said loudly: "This is the secret fold that Dongchang just came up, I'm afraid you Aiqing don't know what it says!" Saying that, Wang Chengen, who turned his gaze to the side, said in a deep voice: "Wang Chengen, you come to read it to all Aiqing!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang Chengen respectfully took the fold and unfolded it gently!

The ministers below were suddenly a little stunned, what's wrong? Could it be that something is going on? Listening to the tone of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, it seems that this matter is not trivial. Many people are there to ask their noses, noses to ask their mouths, their mouths to ask their hearts, and who dare not look at the Emperor of the Apocalypse with their heads down.

"Ministers Cao Huachun respectfully invite St. Ann! After the courtiers came to Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, they did their best to investigate and find out that many officials in Shanxi had committed illegal acts. Officials levied and extorted money, and the people were miserable. The governor of Shaanxi, Xianke, exhausted his corpse and ate vegetarian food, was insatiable, and expropriated violently in Shaanxi. Since the beginning of this year, Shaanxi has suffered from drought and many places have lost their harvest! Shaanxi is rich and powerful, with serious land annexation and displaced people. In July, Wang Er, a peasant from Baishui County, Shaanxi Province, led hundreds of displaced people to break through the county seat and kill the county commander Zhang Yaodou. The governor of Shaanxi, Xian Kedu, was afraid that the saint would condemn him, so he bribed the court officials with a lot of money to hide the matter and not report it. The homeless people have grown rapidly, and the recent situation in Shaanxi is impressive! Slowly closing the fold, Wang Chengen carefully put the fold back on the table of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and at this time he finally understood why the Emperor of the Apocalypse was so angry.

Not only Wang Chengen, but also the ministers below knew about it, and everyone's faces suddenly became exciting! It's a big deal! This Xianke is really okay, the dignified governor of Shaanxi, and he will govern Shaanxi in a mess. This is the official forcing the people to rebel! The thieves have already broken through the county seat, and they have reached the point of killing the county order, and this Xianke still wants to hide it as much as he wants.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't seem to be very well-informed, and it has been so long since I got a secret report from Dongchang. I don't know who of you Aiqing knows first, why don't you tell me? The Emperor of the Apocalypse's tone was very calm, and there was even a faint smile on his face.

"Ministers deserve death!" Everyone fell to their knees and shouted!

At this time, it was no longer the time when the Emperor of the Apocalypse had just ascended the throne, and he needed to shout loudly to vent his dissatisfaction. The Emperor of the Apocalypse only needed to speak softly, and in this empty hall, it was like the roar of a giant.

Gently picked up the fold, the Emperor of the Apocalypse knocked lightly, slowly stood up, and said: "The literati pay attention to the scholars and the Son of Heaven to rule the world together, I am not wrong, right?" I have entrusted this country to you to govern, but how did you help me govern this country? I trust you so much, and you just repay my trust? The people have been forced to rebel, and it has reached the point of besieging the city and killing officials, and you still don't know what use I want you people to do? ”

"The emperor is angry!" Everyone was on their knees, and some of them were already shaking!
