Chapter 25: The Capture of the Ship
The Fuhai turned the bow of the ship and leaned up to the mountain boat from behind, and someone on each side picked up a long hook to hold the two ships close, while the soldiers on both sides looked at each other nervously, although they did not face each other with their swords and guns, but the iron cannons and Lu Mitong on both sides had lit the fire rope and held it in their hands, looking at each other vigilantly.
Zhao Lie took Li Hu and Yu Dabao to the side of the ship, Zhao Lie turned around and raised his hands to make a gesture to make everyone stable, but he looked at Huang Han with his eyes, Huang Han nodded faintly, Yu Dabao jumped on the enemy ship first, Zhao Lie and Li Hu then stepped on the enemy ship, and Su Jianshan trembled and stepped on the boat with all his might.
A few people did not bring long weapons, they all carried waist knives, a samurai in leather armor stepped forward to let a few people hand over the waist knife, Yu Dabao raised his hand to stop, a few ashigaru stepped forward to move roughly, and a roar behind him, it turned out that Yamauchi Nobuyashi spoke to stop a few people, Yamauchi Nobuya had long observed this general, only to see that he was tall, dark face, but quite young, after arriving on the ship, facing the heavily armed samurai, his demeanor was calm, it can be said that he was full of confidence, not a little timid. Yamauchi praised in his heart. Nobumasa Yamauchi didn't think there was any chance of fighting each other face-to-face, and the dignity of the samurai made him speak out to stop him. But he didn't step forward, after all, he played the family crest, and now he represents the Maori family.
Zhao Lie stepped forward and bowed, Yamauchi Shinmasa bowed, and after seeing the salute, Zhao Lie chuckled, "Could it be that the samurai-sama is so hospitable." Su Jianshan stumbled over the translation.
Yamauchi Nobumasa smiled, made a gesture of invitation, and proudly walked to the cabin first, Hita Yoshio and several attendants then entered, Zhao Lie and other four people followed, and when they arrived in the cabin, Yamauchi Nobuzheng took the seat first, Zhao Lie sat on Yamauchi's left hand, and everyone else stood next to the two of them, and the small cabin suddenly seemed extremely crowded.
"I don't know what the Lord of the Thousand Households has to say." Yoshio Hida asked in stumbling Chinese.
Zhao Lie looked at Hida Yoshio in surprise, but he didn't expect Hida Yoshio, who was dressed as a high-ranking samurai, to speak Chinese, "I'm here to discuss the resumption of diplomatic relations between the two countries." ”
Yoshio Hita stumbled in surprise, his eyes first looked at Zhao Lie, and then looked at Yamauchi Nobumasa, Yamauchi Nobumasa was a little stunned at first glance, and his eyes were stunned, what is the situation, Daming wants to resume diplomatic relations with Japan, and then he found that a bright light came from below, Yamauchi Nobumasa subconsciously blocked with his hand, but found that the huge force attacked, the arm was collided open, and was held by a pair of giant pincers, and the cold blade pressed on the side of his neck, at the same time, Li Hu and Yu Dabao pulled out a single knife, and turned to the three attendants, Several people's attention was all on Yamauchi Nobumasa's body, just about to pull out the knife, Yu Dabao, Li Hu's Yanling knife has arrived, the three of them swirled and flew out, Hita Yoshio pulled out the knife, however, Yu Dabao's backhand slashed, Hida Yoshio hurriedly blocked with the knife, didn't want to touch the two knives, click, the knife was disconnected, and the Yanling knife did not stop slashing at Hida Yoshio, fortunately, Hida Yoshio was dressed in the southern barbarians, and the protection was good, after all, the Yanling knife was still the remaining momentum, but the armor was cut out of a deep mark, and Hida staggered into the bulkhead, Bumped into all kinds of meat.
Yamauchi is face flushed, scolding, Baga, wanting to get up to resist the enemy, Zhao Lie's dagger crushed blood, and his left arm was firmly pressed, Yamauchi Nobumasa has never been so aggrieved, the three words in his mouth are endless, Li Hu hit the back of Yamauchi Nobumasa's head with the back of the knife, although it was across the head pocket, however, Yamauchi Nobumasa still buzzed, his head shook loudly, and the whole person was groggy, Yu Dabao picked up the fat field Yoshio who hit all the meat and eight vegetarians with one hand, pressed his neck with a knife, and Fei Tian shouted in strange Chinese, "Spare your life, spare your life." ”
Various samurai poured in at the hatch, joking, the movement was too big, and it made a ping-pong sound on the bulkhead, but several people were dumbfounded at that time, and the main and deputy envoys were all controlled by the Ming army.
During this period, the only spectator in the cabin, Su Jianshan was stunned and watched everything that happened in just a few breaths.
"Let them lay down their knives or kill their leader." Zhao Lie shouted.
Su Jianshan was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he was just phrasing, there was no way to be unfamiliar, and he had to come back to his senses when he was frightened, how to say this sentence in Japanese.
At this time, someone couldn't wait, who was it, Yoshio Hida, who was already not strong, as soon as he heard that he was going to kill himself if he didn't put down his sword and gun, he trembled all over, and shouted in Japanese with all his might: "Put down the knife and gun, otherwise, they will kill Yamauchi-sama."
A group of samurai outside the door were embarrassed, the deputy envoy spoke, let down the sword and gun, but the main envoy did not speak, that is, he was making a speech to do it, and everyone did not dare, the two adults were in the hands of the Ming army, Yamauchi Shinzheng wanted to speak, but it was when he had a splitting headache, but he also knew what to say, and what came out of his mouth was a whining sound.
At this time, a group of samurai shouted behind the sound of killing, Huang Han led the armor, musket group rushed to the Japanese ship, at this time the attention of all the samurai was light in the rear cabin, the Ming army killed, it was really a dilemma, when the first samurai stomped his feet, roared, everyone put down their weapons, some did not want to put down their weapons, were immediately stabbed down by the Ming army, the deck calmed down, and the sailors who rushed up with the Ming army also grabbed the steering gear and controlled the enemy ship.
It was quiet here, but the Maori family's ship behind them found that something was wrong, and fired a fire at the Sea Dragon that was watching him, and there was a loud noise and smoke, Zhao Lie listened, "Li Hu," Zhao Lie said to Hita Yoshio, "pull him to the deck, let him shout and tell the ship to surrender." ”
Li Hu responded, half-dragging and half-dragging Lord Hida Yoshio to the top of the rear cabin, under the blade of the Yanling knife, Lord Hida lived up to expectations, shouted for the rear ship to surrender, and said that if he did not surrender, he would kill the main envoy, as soon as this statement came out, the back ship samurai had to surrender, you must know that the main general in the battle formation was killed, and the most severe thing for the subordinate samurai to go back was to behead him, the military regulations of the Maori family are not vegetarians, not to mention that most of the back ships are also Yamauchi's cronies. So the sea dragon took the opportunity to help board the enemy ship, and so far the two Maori ships were all captured.
Zhao Lie personally pressed the death-faced Nobumasa Yamauchi and the panicked Yoshio Hida back to the Fukukai, and ordered the two Maori crew members to be imprisoned on the lowest deck, and the seven ships sailed north together and left the channel to avoid the merchant ships they might encounter.
"My lord, the three injured people on our side are all on the Sea Dragon, they were injured by the fire guns of the Japanese slaves, in the shoulders and arms, they are not heavy, and they will be healed after a while." Huang Han entered the cabin to report on the battle. "Eight Japanese slaves were killed, more than ten were injured, and their heads were cut off."
"Okay, treat the wounded, they are all good men who go into battle to kill the enemy." Zhao Lie was very satisfied, capturing two enemy ships at the cost of injuring three people, which was a complete victory, and Zhao Lie couldn't be dissatisfied. However, the soldiers who dare to fight are even more valuable. "Order, twenty taels of silver to each person." This is the first time that Zhao Lie has led his ship to battle, too many words are not as good as actual benefits, and Zhao Lie fulfilled his promise as soon as possible.
The fleet sailed quietly all night, leaving the Ryukyu Sea at dawn and heading northwest.
In the afternoon, Zhao Lie was chatting with Li Hu, and Su Jianshan and Huang Han, who were sweating profusely, came in to report the seizures on the two ships.
"Your Excellency, the two ships have a total of 80,000 taels of silver, 40,000 catties of copper, 30,000 catties of sulfur, 400 iron cannons, 500 swords, 300 Yamato Juan, 800 Nagasaki silk, and 1,000 folding fans." Su Jianshan returned to a peaceful environment, his tone also returned to stability, and his voice was rich and joyful.
"My lord, this time our army has captured two Fu boats, four large barrels, three sets of half-body Nanban, four sets of full-body weapons, thirty-two sets of leather armor, twenty-three infantry bows, twenty-eight iron cannons, twenty swords, thirteen ribs, more than 30 guns in three rooms, 500 catties of propellant, and 82 gold and 1,896 silver sentences." Huang Han reported the seizure of ordnance, "and one hundred and sixteen Japanese slaves." ”
The more Zhao Lie listened, the more his smile grew, and Li Hu arched his body: "Congratulations, my lord, I have won a victory and have a rich seizure." ”
Zhao Lie laughed, "Tongxi and Tongxi, it must be Tongxi, Li Hu, don't forget, you are equally divided with the bow of the ship." ”
"Yes, happy and happy," Li Hu was also smiling, when he was by the old lord's side, Zhao Haiming also took care of him many times and was well treated, but it was the first time that such a big harvest had been made. It's really a pleasure. It was Zhao Lie's proposal to divide the seizure equally with each bow,
"Huang Han, most of your reports are accurate, but you forgot the most important seizure." Zhao Lie suddenly straightened his face.
"Adult, the villain doesn't dare," Huang Han was very frightened, "The villain counted three times before coming to report, and there is no mistake." ”
"Ha," Zhao Lie smiled a little Huang Han, "Sea boat, don't talk about silver money, just give you silver taels, can you turn into a sea ship at the moment." Ahh Zhao Lie was in a good mood, ridiculing Huang Han, Zhao Lie was crazy because of the lack of ships, several power ships in the south were more than 100, and he was less than 10 ships, so he could catch up that year and that month, as soon as he thought of this, Zhao Lie felt that time was pressing.
"Yes, yes, villain negligence, negligence." Huang Han is embarrassed, the most precious capture is indeed a warship, Huang Han knows Zhao Lie's desire for a sea ship, but he misses it alone, which is really funny.
"Huh," Yu Dabao, who was standing beside Zhao Lie, was suffocating his face flushed, usually, Huang Han and Wan Ji looked like big brothers, calm and wise, and the stupid Yu Dabao was usually trained by these two, and today he finally saw Huang Han's embarrassment, and he couldn't control it for a while.
Huang Han is even more embarrassed, and the appearance of the big brother in the past collapsed today.
"By the way, the Japanese slaves have two meals a day, and each meal is half full, you can remember it." Zhao Lie told Huang Han.
"Yes, my lord, I'll give you some gruel this morning, it's evening, and I haven't given them anything to eat." Huang Han replied.
"My lord, if you want me to say, cut off your head and throw your body into the sea to feed the fish, how easy it is." Yu Dabao said angrily.
"Idiot, I'm of great use to these slaves." Zhao Lie squinted at Yu Dabao, why didn't he find out that Yu Dabao was a violent maniac, he hacked two to death with a few knives yesterday, with strong force and neat movements.
"What's the use of these dwarves," Yu Dabao asked with wide eyes.
"I'll know later." Zhao Lie was too lazy to ramble.
Li Hu was surprised, this subordinate also has too many mouths. He had never seen it before, but the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable.
ps Zhao Lie is very sad today, there are too few recommended collection clicks, woo.
