118 Here comes the experience
What Tang Ping didn't know was that their whereabouts were still being targeted.
"Boss, there's a strange fleet of ships that have arrived near Sea Rat's Island."
"Sea Rats Island?" In the early spring, a strong man who was shirtless and watched several beautiful women dancing below threw a piece of meat to the little brother who came to report: "What's so strange? ”
"There were twelve boats in front and behind, big and small, but there were no sails or flags."
The strong man didn't care about the fact that there were no sails, and some boats used oars, so it was not surprising that they didn't need sails.
What caught his attention was that there was no flag.
You must know that if it is an official ship of any country, it will fly the flag of the country, so that if you provoke it at sea, you must weigh whether it can withstand the subsequent blows of this country.
There is also a kind of family or chamber of commerce ship, which will also hang its own flag to tell the forces on the sea where they come from, and the forces that have been dealt with in normal times will not come to look for trouble.
On the contrary, it is a fleet like Tang Ping, which does not have any flags, and there is a high probability that some smuggling teams are secretly doing some smuggling work at sea.
Such a fleet, if it is in the past, they can't look down on it, those smuggled things are good and bad, some are not easy to get rid of, the key is to be able to do smuggling, and their subordinates are all hard ideas, if there are too many losses under the firefight, it will seem that the gains outweigh the losses.
But now they are not having a good time as pirates.
The entire territory of the three eastern provinces in the west is now Hou Junji's, although Hou Junji is now separated from the Tang Dynasty, but the blow to these pirates is not small, after all, they all have some family background, once Hou Junji knows, it will inevitably attract a cleanup.
And to go south, the entire East China Sea is the territory of the East Vietnamese Navy, they have dominated the entire East China Sea with their new warships in recent years, that is, the navies of Buyeo, Goguryeo, and Fuso have all been packed up and obeyed, not to mention them pirates.
If the East Vietnam wants to do business on the sea, it will naturally crack down on these pirates, and now these pirates can only fight guerrillas, and make some gains in the vacuum area between East Vietnam and Hou Junji's forces near the exit of the Bohai Strait.
"It's been a long time since it's opened, twelve boats are twelve boats!" This strong man himself has more than 30 ships under his command, which is already one of the largest forces in this area, but he has survived until now by carefully sailing the ship of ten thousand years.
"You go and inform Qian Laosan, and you will do a ticket with us at night, the old rule, whoever wins the boat, the things on it will be anyone's."
Qian Laosan is an old friend of this strong man Luo Siye, both of them turned out to be a pirate group, after the old head died, the pirate group was divided into two, one part followed Luo Siye, and part followed Qian Laosan.
However, the two of them have not had much trouble, they have big fat sheep, and they can start together.
Qian Laosan, who got the notice, soon brought someone over.
"Qian Laosan, why did you live more and more and go back? Just a dozen boats? Standing at the bow of the flagship, Luo Siye asked loudly.
"Luo Laosi, your concept has been too long, now it's not about who has more ships, who is powerful, then there are ten ships out of the East Vietnamese Navy, do you dare to lean on it?" Qian Laosan had a mouse beard, and touched his beard as he spoke: "Look at my two ships, but they are newly built according to the drawings of the new warships of the East Vietnamese Navy, although they are smaller, but the speed is much faster than the original." Saying this, Luo Siye found out that Qian Laosan's ship really looked like a small new warship used by the East Vietnamese Navy, and said with some hot eyes: "Qian Laosan, you are a little inauthentic, I think about all the good things, but you hide it from me?" ”
"Luo Laosi, last time I said that I asked you to go to Dongyue together, there are good things, but you don't want to go, don't talk nonsense, solve today's fat sheep first, and I'll give you a copy of the drawings."
Luo Siye didn't expect Qian Laosan to really get the drawings of Dongyue, but now is really not the time to talk about it, so he told Qian Laosan about the situation reported by his subordinates.
"Sea Rats Island? They've found a good place. Qian Laosan smiled, you must know that if they are here, they want to escape from Sea Rats Island, but the wind is against the current, and the speed is absolutely not up.
"Are you sure that the other party is not the fleet of a big force?"
"Sure, guess what? There wasn't even a bed crossbow on those twelve boats! ”
The battleship of this era, the long-range weapon is the bed crossbow or the trebuchet, the trebuchet is difficult to use because the battleship itself is a sailboat, and the stone projectile is heavy, so the trebuchet is not the first choice, and the really powerful warships are equipped with bed crossbows.
And these ships don't even have a bed crossbow, which means that they are complete merchant ships, isn't this a proper bowl of fat?
"Then let's go, this will be over, eat something on Red Crab Island, forty miles away from Sea Rats Island, just wait for it to get dark and work!"
"Okay!"
It's not the first time they've cooperated, and the two are full of tacit understanding, Luo Siye shouted at the top of his voice: "Little guys, anchor and work, Hun Tian has done business, and there will be good wine and meat when you come back." ”
Qian Laosan went out of eighteen boats, and Luo Siye dispatched thirty boats, after all, the loot at that time depends on who grabs the more boats, and the more people who go by themselves, they will naturally get more loot.
Forty-eight ships of various styles began to head towards the Sea Rats Island, where Tang Ping and his temporary foothold had settled.
And Tang Ping naturally can't predict the prophet, he will be taking Wang Qingluan to catch fish on the beach.
The ship was stuffy for several days, and although Tang Ping did not get seasick, he was always a little bored.
The two have been revolving around their children in Chang'an City for the past few months, and it is rare to have time alone.
Now there is no danger on this island, so Lao Cui Lao Du and these people are very discerning and ran away by themselves, leaving this beach for the two of them.
In order to go to sea, Tang Ping also bought a set of fishing tackle for sea fishing, but the fish here did not give any face, and he fished for a long time, but he found nothing.
"Husband, do you want me to try? You told Lao Cui Lao Du and them, eat the fish we got tonight! ”
Tang Ping's face was a little unbearable, and the hand holding Wang Qingluan scratched her waist dishonestly: "Fishing is in a hurry, don't worry, you can definitely catch a big fish." ”
Wang Qingluan giggled when he was scratched, and he laughed in Tang Ping's arms, Tang Ping's heart swayed, and he put the fishing rod on the ground, leaning on Wang Qingluan, and wanted to stick it.
At that moment, the cell phone rang on the side.
Wang Qingluan giggled and pushed him away, then handed him the phone.
"Hello? What's wrong? Tang Ping asked angrily, almost losing his mouth.
"Ping Guogong, the drone has discovered that there is a fleet coming towards us in the northeast, and it is now parked behind a small island twenty kilometers away!"
"Fleet? Are you sure it's coming for us? ”
"I'm not sure, but the other party should not be a merchant ship, but an armed sailing ship, and the photos taken have been sent to you."
"Okay, keep an eye on them for me, and be careful."
Tang Ping hung up the phone, and then looked at the photos sent, although it was twenty kilometers away, the drone shot was still very clear, densely packed with sea boats, and after zooming in, you could see the crossbow arrows on it and many men with weapons standing.
After coming out, Tang Ping's drone has been constantly reconnoitring overhead, and there are only a few small fishing boats in this sea area besides them.
With such a big battle on the other side, it can't be for those small fishing boats, right?
Therefore, the biggest possible target is their fleet, and the identity of the other party can be guessed from the messy ships and the various costumes of the people on board, and it is likely that they belong to the legendary pirates.
The reason why it is said to be legendary is because the last time Tang Ping saw a pirate, he was a young man named Luffy in a comic book.
However, I'm afraid their luck is not as good as Luffy's, because Tang Ping, who almost had a mouth just now, is now angry.
"Very good, since you're here, I'm just here to train everyone!"
You must know that although Tang Ping brought all the Tang naval armies, in the past, the Tang Dynasty did not rely on the sea, and these naval armies were mainly on warships on the rivers, which was still very different from naval warfare.
At the beginning, Tang Ping felt that if he fought with the East Vietnamese Navy, the only shortcoming was that he lacked experience in naval warfare on his side, but now that he has such a good opportunity, he will naturally not be polite to upgrade his Taihao fleet.
At this time, the bell on the fishing rod that Tang Ping had inserted on the ground also began to jingle.
Tang Ping grabbed it, only to feel a huge force coming, making him stumble and almost not stand firm, but fortunately, Wang Qingluan reached out in time and grabbed his arm.
"Did the daughter-in-law see it? I said I could catch a big fish, right? Tang Ping said to Wang Qingluan with a happy face.
"Up!" Wang Qingluan grabbed the fishing rod, violently forced, and with a bang, a forty or fifty centimeter-sized sea fish was lifted up from the water.
"Hahaha, let's go, let's go back and eat the fish first, and then wait for the bigger fish to take the bait." Tang Ping took advantage of Wang Qingluan's acceptance of the fish into the fish protection, and finally kissed him.
Wang Qingluan's face turned slightly red, and then he walked back with him carrying the fish guard.
"Tell the brothers to eat too, and when it gets dark, I'll take you to fight monsters and upgrade!"
Tang Ping proudly threw the big fish to Lao Cui, and then said loudly.
Many of those Datang Navy soldiers actually have no bottom in their hearts, although they are new warships and have new weapons, but the other party has a full forty-eight warships, and there are only twelve on their side, plus they have never fought a naval battle, so they must be worried.
This met Tang Ping with an indifferent look, as if he had found the backbone.
