Chapter 389: Where did the military merit come from?
readx;
After the Zhengde period, the Ming Dynasty called all the pirates the Wako, but out of the Wa country of those warriors, ronins, the rest are Zhejiang and Fujian around the seaside Haoqiang, to the later Jiajing Dynasty, the leading role is already the Ming Dynasty of the sea giants. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou fought hard in the southeast for decades, and the pirates finally did not dare to make trouble inland, and put the Japanese standard on the sea where no one could control it. After such a long period of fighting, the Ming Dynasty's understanding of these "Japanese Invaders" has become more and more in-depth, and there are notes that "the so-called Japanese Invaders, the real Japanese are only two out of ten?" ”。
The pirates' attack on Tianjin Wei can be regarded as a bandit nuisance to the city, which is a local affair, and there is no need to have so much involvement, Wang Tong's positioning is the same, so as not to exterminate the bandits, and also provoke other rights and wrongs, according to his estimate, even if there are pirates who come to Tianjin Wei, they are just these pirates in the north, and there will be no real pirates in it.
But when the corpse is examined, there are real Japanese robbers, and the matter is very serious, and it must not be concealed, so it can only be reported truthfully.
When Wang Tong rushed to the Haihe River, the temporary transfer of the bow of the ship, Xiang Qianjin, a young man, also rushed to the commercial area, they carried out the corpses, covered the blood stains on the ground with soil, and then under the supervision of the soldiers, gathered the weapons of the pirates, and left nearly 80 large and small sea ships on the sea, and also temporarily requisitioned the sailors of the merchant ships to dock the ships to the shore.
It was almost dawn, and many merchants and men who had been frightened all night also came here, and when they saw the soldiers and Ding Zhuang swallowing there to clean up, many people took the initiative to help.
The faces of the soldiers are a little more resolute and strong, and there is also the exhaustion and excitement after the victory in the night battle.
The faces of the merchants and the men and the idlers of all stripes were full of awe, and few people had seen the battle of last night, but the rumbling of cannons like thunder, and the shouts and screams of slaughter and screams in the streets, many could hear it clearly, not to mention the thick smell of blood in the air.
The people who stayed behind were either excited, or afraid to tell people they didn't know about what they had seen last night, and the invasion of more than 4,000 pirates was said to be 40,000 in these people......
But this exaggeration can't help but be unbelievable by others, look at those people constantly carrying out the corpses, one by one I don't know how many, talking and listening, a kind of confidence spontaneously arises in everyone's hearts.
With such a scale of pirate invasion, if it were in the south, the states and counties would be washed in blood, but Wang Tong won a complete victory, and what is even more rare is that none of the shops were damaged by the disaster.
At this time, everyone really understood what those "troublesome" "inexplicable" policies were all about, and thanks to those, everyone was able to save their lives and keep their family business.
sighed and sighed, the more important it is to Wang Tong and the transportation area, in this place, not only can you make money, but also can be protected for peace and long-term wealth, which is the most important thing. "Are you Muen?" Wang Tong asked with a smile, and the sturdy man in front of him immediately stood upright and replied loudly, "Lord Huiwang, his subordinate is Mu En!" "Listen to your battalion officer, you fired the first shot last night, and you also used the tiger squat cannon to kill a lot
In last night's battle, the first shot may not be important, but the Tiger Squat Cannon approached the pirates to shoot, and the action of causing a large number of casualties was a great achievement, unlike the thieves who poured into the streets, the thieves who broke through from the Haihe River were particularly fierce, and in the end, the artillery stopped, and their several attacks almost broke the infantry array on the shore.
It was precisely because of the pears that Mu En shot with the tiger squat cannon that the artillery of the other batteries also carried the tiger squat cannon down and took the initiative to kill the enemy and repelled the enemy.
At the beginning, no one took this tiger talisman cannon seriously, and when the consideration of rationing the fort was a last resort, the artillery could shoot the tiger squat cannon nearby, but I didn't expect it to be of great use last night. "Make good use of artillery, and have a flexible brain, you have done a good job, the officer wants to reward you well, I want Mu En to hear this, and immediately replied loudly: "If you go back to your lordship, your subordinates don't want to stay in the fort, they want to go to the camp." Wang Tong was stunned for a moment, "*_ En continued to say loudly: "The subordinates want to do real swords and guns, and they don't want to set fire there!" This is straightforward, Wang Tong shook his head and laughed, Mu En's waist was straighter, and the "My lord, if Mu En is willing to come, our battalion will give a position of the general flag, it is a good man Wang Tong shook his head and said: "Don't be delusional, be your artillery honestly." As soon as he heard this, Mu En was immediately deflated, but Wang Tong cried and said: "There is a lack of deputy on Tan Huo's side, so you will be promoted to become a hundred households and learn more from Tan Huo." Mu En was originally a small banner, but suddenly became a hundred households, in the system of Jinyiwei and Huwei Army, there are less than seventy people in one hundred households, which is already considered a character, but Mu En didn't expect that he would be promoted like this, and he forgot that he couldn't go to the camp to be depressed, and he was stupid and smirked there, and he didn't even know how to thank him.
After being reprimanded by the battalion officer, Mu Encai hurriedly bowed down and thanked him, Wang Tong smiled and encouraged a few words, and stumbled to the place where the corpses were piled up.
More than a dozen corpses were placed on their own, each with armor made of bamboo and fur, their foreheads and the top of their heads shaved, all of them stocky and stocked, and the weapons around them were spears or swords.
Wang Tong took his knife and turned the corpse, and while observing carefully, he said in a deep voice: "It is really lawless to be able to use the real Japanese and mobilize more than 4,000 people to attack!" The battalion officer on the side looked at Wang Tong's heavy face and said in a low voice:
"My lord, these dozen or so people look like leaders, especially fierce, our damaged brothers died at the hands of these few people, and caught twenty-three alive, saying that the team that broke through on the Scratching River, almost 200 people were real widows, but they were all on the boat with the head, and when they rushed, they were in front again, and they were killed by shelling, and there were no real widows in the living mouth."
The pirate captives, whose spirit and will had long since collapsed, could not harden their mouths, and without torture during the interrogation, the gang confessed in 1510.
These people who came last night were all deployed by the Three Water Kings, and the leader was called Gu Laohu, Gu Laohu's group was quite independent, although the Three Water Kings were the leaders of the alliance, but the people could be self-contained and do their own thing.
There are nearly 10,000 people in the Sanshui Wang, and what they do at sea is the business of collecting water money for all kinds of ships, a Qianke sea ship, which has to pay 500 taels of silver every year, and then get a Sanshui flag, which can keep a safe year at sea for a year.
But this Gu Tiger is not very ruly, and often robs ships with flags in private, because he has a deep friendship with the Japanese people, and there are thousands of men under him, so the King of Sanshui also let him have a few points.
The sea ships from the Disanshui King and the alliance entered directly at the mouth of the Haihe River, and the profiteering goods loaded with deerskins, tax silver, oxtails, poplins, etc., went to the Wa Kingdom to sell, but since Wang Tong built a fort there and charged heavy taxes on the profiteering goods, it was equivalent to taking a large piece of meat from the mouth of the Sanshui King.
Cutting off people's financial routes, this is the world's first deep hatred, Wang Tong sent people to suppress the private port of Tangjiahe, more than a dozen ships under the hands of the king of Sanshui, and the people and goods on the ships were all cut off in vain, which is even more hatred.
In February of the seventh year of Wanli, Jinwei began to explode in prosperity today, with a large influx of people, logistics, and money.
There is a grudge in itself, such a large piece of meat is placed on the seashore, and as a pirate, he is unwilling not to bite a bite, and the three water kings are thinking up and down.
Many people mean to come to do a ticket in March, but Sanshui Wang feels that the fruit of Tianjin Wei is not yet ripe, and many stores are still preparing and have not been operated.
Everyone also agreed with him, but they didn't expect that the Three Water Kings suddenly changed some time ago. Wind, said that Tianjin Wei is heavily guarded, what do you want to do is not easy, it is better to do business in Tianjin Wei, everyone stays at sea, there are many ships, there are natural advantages in sea trade, isn't it better to take this opportunity to make money?
Hearing the statement of the King of Sanshui, the pirates who had been preparing for a long time suddenly made an uproar, and Tianjin Weifu's flowing oil stopped touching it because of the sentence "heavily guarded"?
Na Shuo Tiger is the most ferocious one, the King of Sanshui can suppress others, but he may not be able to suppress him, not to mention that he privately sent someone to Tianjin Wei to see.
The officers and soldiers of the general were stationed in the north of the city, and the nearest battalion head was also two hours away from the Haihe River.
The officers and soldiers couldn't get it on the table, let alone Fanzi, Gu Laohu, who got the news, immediately decided to bring his own people to do a vote, a lot of money, but he didn't expect to hit an iron plate here.
As for the Shiro who came in from the Haihe River, it is said that he is a retainer of a daimyo in the Wa Kingdom, and he has always been able to rush and fight, and the daimyo is related to Gu Laohu, and many goods are directly traded with the daimyo.
At noon, the pirates' confessions had been sent to Wang Tong's desk, and after reading it, Wang Tong was silent for a long time before he said: "There are tens of thousands of pirates close to the Japanese at sea, and we must let the court know and come up with a corresponding countermeasure." Speaking of this, Wang Tongtong patted his forehead with his hand, and suddenly smiled and said to himself: "There may be a benefit to this matter......
Thank you, a little tired to be continued,
