As soon as the sky broke, Zhao Jiaren's fleet rushed back to yesterday's sea battlefield. All the personnel on board were quite vigilant, and the lookout post reported that there were still two ships left on the battlefield yesterday.

Liu Meng said loudly: "Their courage is too big! The four of us don't dare to jump to help four boats, but don't we dare to jump to help a boat? Principal, I'm willing to lead the team to jump! ”

The other class cadres looked at Liu Meng with disdain, and only said clearly, 'Aren't you talking nonsense!' 'It's not that you didn't dare to jump yesterday, it's just that there are so many fewer melee troops than the enemy. If the forces are superior, where will they wait until today. Everyone thought about it and didn't rush to speak. Liu Meng, as a member of the sports committee and the captain of the melee unit, of course he can say this, and he should say so.

"Capture as much as you can." Since yesterday's change of mind, Zhao Jiaren's words are not as murderous as before.

Three boats surrounded him, and from a distance he saw that there were still people on board the Mongolian navy. Just as they were preparing for battle, the men on the Mongol ships raised the white flag.

Half an hour later, several people on the Mongolian ship were brought to Zhao Jiaren. Judging from their clothing, they were Mongolian soldiers, and all of them were wounded, and it seemed that the injuries were not light. Seeing Zhao Jiaren, who was surrounded by everyone, he immediately knelt down. After all, it was the wounded man, kneeling down, and the Mongolian soldiers grinned in pain. It's just that at this time, it's important to save your life, and you can't care so much.

"This grandfather, we are all injured and can't get on the big boat. The gang of straight thieves left us at night and left. We don't ask for anything else, just for a life. As soon as the Mongolian soldiers spoke, it was Shandong, and Zhao Jiaren's subordinates couldn't understand it, but Zhao Jiaren smiled. The familiar Beiyin, although it is much worse than Mandarin, has already made Zhao Jiaren feel good.

"How many people did they run?" Zhao Jiaren asked.

The one who spoke hurriedly replied: "This grandfather, we have a total of eight big ships, and you sank three of them. The two boats that remained here were beaten so hard that the oars were broken. The officials were afraid that the grandfathers would suddenly kill them at night, so they left the boat here. We were wounded and left on the ship. ”

Zhao Jiaren looked at Liu Meng, who had been on the Mongolian ship, Liu Meng nodded, it seems that this person is telling the truth. Zhao Jiaren ordered the captives to be pressed down, and ordered the military doctor to treat them. Waiting for them to take away, Liu Meng asked puzzledly: "Principal, it's already good to leave them a dog's life." Why do you have to heal them? ”

Zhao Jiaren told Liu Meng his views with a pleasant face, "We are human beings, people with compassion. Not the barbarians. Fighting on the battlefield has its own position, and since they have surrendered, killing them again is a thirst for killing. Are you murderous outlaws? Seeing Liu Meng nodding yes, Zhao Jiaren swallowed the second half back into his stomach. These Mongol soldiers were wounded by firearms, and treating them was also in preparation for the war that followed.

No matter how humanitarianism is discussed, Zhao Jiaren is still very cautious about boarding the ship. Fortunately, the enemy did not play any tricks, and the process of accepting the ship was very easy. More than 200 prisoners and more than 100 corpses were collected onto a 300-ton ship, and the big ship pulled all the sails and hurried back.

Even though the corpses were covered with straw mats, the sailors on board still showed expressions of extreme disgust. Zhao Jiaren couldn't care so much, he was in a hurry to send these living people and the dead back to receive merit. More than a month ago, in March, Jia Rudao wrote to the imperial court to ask Zhao Jiaren to come and help in the battle. Zhao Jiaren did not have any troops for land warfare, so he rushed to Haizhou with his fleet. Haizhou is the Lianyungang of later generations, and it has been an important port for more than 2,000 years. The Mongol army defeated the Song army at sea, and Zhao Jiaren came to the aid with a fleet.

Jia Yidao also dissuaded Zhao Jiaren from taking risks at that time, and Zhao Jiaren greeted him. With so many captures this time, what is needed is to send the prisoners of war and the war dead to receive merit as soon as possible. The provincial made Jia Yidao have other ideas.

Fujian sailors had rich experience in seafaring, and the Mongolian ships adopted the traditional sealed cabin technology of the Song Dynasty, although the sealed cabin was filled with a lot of water, but only a few sealed cabins were filled. The ship did not sink. The sailors made a little preparation, and then the big ship turned back. When the captives were interrogated along the way, the captives told them that the naval army to which they belonged was the first part of the Mongolian Zilai Naval Army. Commanded by Li Pu, the governor of Yidu (Shandong). The captives claimed that the Zilai Navy had more than 30 such large ships. This made the personnel on Zhao Jiaren's side feel very disdainful.

"Headmaster, are they blowing?" When his family was discussing, Ding Yu, a member of the study committee, asked with a disdainful face.

"yes. If they really have more than thirty of these ships, why don't they send them all at once? Li Hongjun also agrees with this view. The Zhao family's fleet is pouring out every time.

"It's fine. Next time they'll definitely come out. Zhao Jiaren reminded his students and subordinates. Judging from the performance of the Mongolian naval army so far, they have only lost to Zhao Jiaren's superior weapon. Judging from the numbers, the will to fight, and the level of fighting, the performance of the Mongolian naval army was not bad at all.

After talking about this, Zhao Jiaren continued: "There is one more thing, it seems that it is not easy to deal with this kind of big ship with a three-pound cannon. I'm going to start casting six-pound cannons when I get back. ”

"Six-pound cannon? How much more powerful can it be than a three-pound cannon? ”

"Twice as powerful as a three-pound cannon?"

"What is called double, stumped three pounds of cannon is only three times more powerful than a pound of guns? Haven't we measured it, the three-pound cannon is about 3 squares more powerful than the one-pound gun, which is 9 times. ”

The crowd couldn't help but argue. Until Ding Yu, a member of the study committee, spoke, "This thing has to be calculated." The headmaster has said that any weapon that is not based on mathematical calculations is a hooligan! ”

Such a condescending and unashamed speech immediately triggered a friendly scolding from everyone!

"Get out!"

"What to pretend!"

"It's not you!"

"Come, come, come! I'm going to settle the math with you! ”

Zhao Jiaren watched his subordinates arguing, and he suddenly remembered what he looked like when he was in junior high school. In this phase of gradual stratification of learning, good scholars compete with each other as they do now.

There is a joke in anthropology that men are only different in toys, not in essence. Math, weapons, technology, politics, these are all toys for men. In such a game world, they will feel a strong sense of joy and presence. People of different eras don't seem to have different reactions.

The ship finally sailed into the port, but Zhao Jiaren saw that there were many Song troops standing on the dock. Seeing Zhao Jiaren's fleet rushing back, the other ships immediately raised their flags. "Come and help! They're going to take the prisoners! ”

Zhao Jiaren was taken aback, he didn't expect Song Jun to be so violent. hurriedly got off the boat to see what was going on, but I didn't expect to see Zhao Jiaren, a civilian official, get off the ship, and those Song troops immediately withdrew. Only a few mid-level officers were left to negotiate.

The headmaster ....... To mention, these people were not satisfied after removing the corpses, and actually tried to rob our prisoners. The fifth squad leader was responsible for pressing the ship, and saw that Zhao Jiaren finally arrived. He immediately rushed off the boat and began to sue Zhao Jiaren.

After listening to the accusations of his subordinates, Zhao Jiaren turned his head to look at the Song Army officers, "Can you tell me whether my subordinates are lying." ”

The officers of the Song army were all speechless, and there was an awkward silence for a moment, and one of them spoke angrily, "Things are not as this brother said. ”

"No, so what?" Zhao Jiaren continued to ask.
