Three warships, which were considered absolutely huge ships in this era, slowly sailed into the Caoyun Wharf, and it can be said that these three warships have already occupied about half of the channel, making those Ming people nearby stunned.

Everyone is curious, where did these three giant ships come from?

Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there is no such warship in the sailor.

As for the surrounding vassal states....... it is even more impossible.

If the surrounding vassal countries had such warships, then the Ming Dynasty would have known about it early in the morning.

Moreover, with the character of the surrounding vassal states, if there were such warships, they would not be allowed to show them off.

The flags on these three giant ships are also a little confusing, and the big guys can't understand where the flags are.

After all, in this day and age, flags can also reveal a lot of useful information.

Ooh!

I don't know where this huge ship came from, it's so big.

I guess this kind of ship is not used on inland waterways, but on the sea.

Some people on the shore saw a little bit of the doorway and played a trick on the people around them.

However, if you let him go into more detail, then this person will not be able to speak.

The ships docked at Caoyun Wharf are basically flat-bottomed boats.

This type of ship was mainly used for sailing in relatively stable inland waterways, while the giant battleships of the Song Empire used triangular bottoms, because such bottoms could effectively move quickly at sea and had the effect of resisting some wind and waves.

But not with flat-bottomed boats.

"You see, the sides of the ship are densely packed with small windows, what the hell is it?"

Others noticed the muzzle of the gun that had been lowered from the partition, and raised their fingers to point and ask the people around them.

In fact, none of these Ming people on the shore will know what it is.

After all, the warships used by the Daming sailors in this era were still the kind of building ships and warships equipped with stone throwers. If you want to have a warship with artillery, you basically have to wait until Zheng Zhilong's son Zheng Chenggong is born.

Of course. It also does not mean that the warships of the Chaoshui Division did not have artillery.

It's just that the two guns on the flagship are not very useful for naval battles at all.

Therefore, if you really want to use artillery to show its power in naval battles, it is still necessary to say that Zheng Chenggong seized Taiwan at that time.

At this time, Zheng Chenggong didn't even have a shadow.

And Yangzhou is not located on the coast, but belongs to the inland city.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a large river that led directly to the East China Sea, then they would not have been able to see such a huge ship of the Song Empire.

The warships of the Song Empire docked, and the landing boards were lowered.

Zhao Hongyu did not get off the ship, but appointed an affairs officer to walk off the flagship with a few soldiers.

Now that I have come to Daming. You have to put on a show.

If you land like this like a dick, won't you be looked down upon by others?

Once you are really looked down upon, then for what you want to do next, will the Ghost Know Dao become a little troublesome?

At this time, not far from the Caoyun Wharf, there was a team of knights wearing Ming Mandarin Duck battle jackets.

These knights came straight from the Caoyun Pier, and the passers-by avoided them along the way, for fear of causing trouble.

"Damn, these three ships of strange origin. Sailed directly into the inland waterway from the sea in the east, and didn't even say hello along the way, is it possible that the yamen on our road are all vegetarians? ”

One of the officers, led by these knights, cursed as he looked at the slowly approaching dock.

Originally. Zhao Hongyu sailed from the direction of Chongming Island in Shanghai in the later generations, and directly drove into the inland waterway all the way, and never landed at all.

However, such three coquettish warships. It's like the fireflies under the bright moon, they are so bright and outstanding, how can they not arouse everyone's ideas.

As an alien vessel. Even here in the Ming Dynasty in the 17th century, you have to talk to the maritime yamen.

Otherwise, people will know what you are here to do?

What if it's an enemy!

Zhao Hongyu just forgot about it, and the people around him also happened to forget to remind him.

Therefore, in the end, the maritime yamen notified the guard stationed nearby, and the guard sent troops to chase after him all the way.

And the hundred households in the health center who accepted this task were depressed along the way.

You must know that Lu Dao is about to celebrate the Spring Festival.

Originally, everyone stayed at home at this time to prepare for the holiday.

If it weren't for the appearance of these three giant ships, he would have been lying at home drinking a little wine by now, how beautiful it was.

Where is it like now, not to mention the wind and dust along the way, and I also ate a stomach full of cold wind.

It's winter, and the weather outside isn't warm.

Whoever puts this on him will have to complain.

This team pursued Zhao Hongyu and their cavalry a total of thirty-six people, and they belonged to the Chongming County Guard Station of Shanghai Dao.

The officer's name was Fu Danian, and he was already in his forties.

At his age, he can already be regarded as an old man in this era.

"Head! Those huge ships are on the shore! ”

After galloping wildly for a while, Fu Danian's pro-army guards looked in the direction of the dock, and then shouted at Fu Danian.

"Damn, the New Year doesn't make people live in peace, and the little ones give Lao Tzu a little faster. We had to talk to these people in the past and say no, if they weren't hard stubble, Lao Tzu would definitely have to squeeze a thick oil out of them. ”

"What Baihu said is that the New Year is coming soon, who knew that there was such a thing in Ludao. The big guy's heart is uncomfortable, this weather is cold, who doesn't want to hug his mother-in-law at home and drink a little wine. ”

Fu Danian's words immediately aroused the echo of his subordinates.

In fact, Fu Danian just said that.

His own men thought differently.

The reason why he said this was just to cheer up everyone's spirits.

As long as people who are not brain-dead should know the Tao, those who can own such a huge ship, can they still have a bad status?

Hum!

Along the way, Fu Danian had already thought about it.

After meeting the owner of the ship, it was just a routine.

When the time comes, I will be able to go back and make a difference.

There is no need to stiffen the relationship with the owner of the giant ship.

He is just a hundred households in a health center, and there are many people like himself in Daming.

There is no problem in bullying and bullying the common people, once it is against some small landlords. He's going to suffer.

Of course, if the owners of these three giant ships really don't have any backers, or if they don't have a good background...... That's hard to say.

However, it is obvious that such a thing is unlikely, and the probability is really small.

Fu Danian doesn't think his life is so good.

Just by looking at the appearance of these three huge ships, he knew that if this ship was built, it would definitely cost no less silver taels.

How can a person with such financial resources not have status?

This is also known with your ass.

It can't be the powerful boss in the south, or the ship of the chief soldier of the sailor.

Otherwise, it is the ship of the noble family in Nanjing.

In a word. Let's test it out after you go over and then talk about the rest.

"Get out of the way!"

In the blink of an eye, Fu Danian came to the Caoyun Wharf with his cavalry, and they drove the wharf laborers who were watching the excitement nearby, but they were much more polite to the merchants.

After all, Yangzhou is very close to Nanjing, and the ghost knows which Nanjing nobles have the background behind these businessmen.

This is not the crime of his small guard.

Therefore, it is okay to be cruel to the common people, so forget about these businessmen.

Not!

Hanging here is a big red background. There are five flags with yellow patterns on it.

After stopping the war horse under his crotch, Fu Danian first looked at the flag fluttering on the pole of the Sea King, Fu Danian first saw if there was a place where he could see the doorway.

After seeing the flag, Fu Danian was confused.

This Manchu dynasty is a civil and military noble. It seems that no one has ever put up such a flag.

Could it be that he is lonely and unheard?

Fu Danian was puzzled.

The war horse under Fu Danian's crotch snorted and spewed out bursts of white mist.

Sigh!

After stabilizing the war horse, Fu Danian turned over and dismounted.

"You guys are here to stop these people around them, and don't let them get near these huge ships. The rest of us will go with me to meet the owner of this ship. We must always know their heels, otherwise we won't be able to pay the difference when we go back. ”

I couldn't see what the other party's background was, so Fu Danian could only negotiate with the people on the boat.

got Fu Danian's orders. The sergeants he brought with him sat on their horses and manipulated the battle under their crotches, creating a small circle to block the lively people from the periphery.

Fu Danian himself, with a few of his own personal guard sergeants, and five or six soldiers, walked to the flagship where the landing board had been lowered.

At this time, fifteen minutes ago, Zhao Hongyu had already appointed the affairs officer to go ashore to deliver the credentials to the yamen of the Yangzhou prefect.

Anyway, he was idle, so he stood on the deck and couldn't stop looking at the scenery near the Caoyun Pier.

As far as the eye can see, they are basically buildings with blue bricks, black tiles and white walls, and the two-story buildings are very conspicuous in this era.

The tallest building in the distance looks like a temple hall, five stories high.

Compared to the buildings around it, which are basically one-storey, the pagoda seems to stand out from the crowd.

Hey!

This is the style of the Ming Dynasty, the things you see here are all natural, and even these buildings are not antique.

Zhao Hongyu's eyes were filled with a look of intoxication.

"Your Highness, a hundred households from the Chongming Guard came up on the shore, saying that they wanted to see you?"

At this time, an adjutant of Chinese descent came over and whispered to Zhao Hongyu. (To be continued......)
