Chapter 709: Fire!
If the information Zhu Jun received is correct, the current Wadao country is in the period of war between the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and it is said that the battle is quite fierce.
This also led to the shogunate's increasingly weakened control over local celebrities.
However, the so-called war between the North and the South may be township-to-township and village-to-village, not a war of tens of thousands of people in the traditional sense of the Central Plains.
At this time, the shogunate emperor had been vacant for a long time, so his control over various places was not strong.
There were also literati, peasants, merchants, and other classes in the island country.
Unlike Daye, the "scholars" of the Japanese island countries were warriors, not scholars in the Chinese sense.
The samurai, on the other hand, were administered by local vassals, the daimyos, who were subjects of the shogunate.
And now, the daimyo are now independent, and they have entered the Warring States period.
And now, the islands of Kyushu, Shikoku, and Honshu in the Wajima country are divided into dozens of small countries.
They are constantly attacking each other.
So, who gave them the audacity to plunder the great cause?
This is worth thinking about.
Zhu Jun came to the shore, the Xuanwu army was ready, and all the sailors and soldiers had already gone ashore.
Liao Wuan and King Kong Nu also got on board a long time ago.
"Your Highness, you have notified the county town and asked them to close the city gate." Li Jiba hurried over.
Although in Li Jiba's opinion, there is no need to make a big fuss, after all, there are not many thieves who come, and it is absolutely impossible to take a step beyond the thunder pool.
But the rules set by the imperial court still can't be lost, and the most important thing is that Zhu Jun wants to take this opportunity to take down these people, and then pull them into Wendeng County to behead them, which is further exciting.
Zhu Jun nodded, and did not board the boat, but asked someone to bring a chair, sit comfortably on the beach, and drink tea.
With a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, he observed the situation on the sea.
Although the distance is far, it can be seen that the opponent's fleet is all small boats under 800 materials.
Almost all of them are 200 materials, and most of them are 400 materials.
The country of Wadao is small and the people are weak, coupled with the Warring States Period, the division of the territory, it is also very good to be able to gather so many ships.
I just don't know whose power these people are.
Xun Busan has also exercised now, followed Zhu Jun to the south and north, saw more knowledge, and the whole person has become calm.
While making tea for Zhu Jun, he said with a smile: "These people are really not long-sighted, they dare to look at this side, and they will definitely come back." ”
"This place is also relatively close to the island country, if it is a tailwind, you can reach it within ten days, compared to Suzhou and other places with heavy guards, Weihaiwei is a little worse."
Weihaiwei here does not have the name of the four Davids in the world, although it is poor, but it is much richer than those people in the island country.
Xun Busan said: "If one day, we can hit the island country!" ”
"You still have this idea?"
"Didn't Your Highness say that one day, you will knock down the Japanese island country and use it as a back garden?" Xun Busan hurriedly said: "The slave is willing to explore the way for His Highness." ”
"It's not your turn to go." Zhu Jun kicked him lightly, "However, I have an errand I want to hand over to you." ”
Xun Busan was stunned, then became excited, and knelt on the ground, "Please command, Your Highness!" ”
"Get up, I'll just say it casually, this matter hasn't been skimmed yet." Zhu Jun thought of the Three Treasures eunuch going to the West, and he wanted to follow suit, wanting to let the 'Gou things' go to the sea.
But right now, Xun Busan is still in charge of the Heavenly Mandate Group, and he really can't spare manpower.
There doesn't seem to be any talent in Haimao under his hands.
And you can't go to the West from Weihaiwei.
He could only think about this in his heart.
Seeing that Zhu Jun was halfway through speaking, Xun Busan's heart was like a cat scratching.
And Li Jiba and the others on the side were waiting for Zhu Jun to be surrounded by water.
Others watched from afar.
On the main ship No. 1, the sailor slid down from the mast, "General, the enemy seems to have turned around!" ”
"Want to escape?" Liao Wuan sneered, "It's a southeast wind blowing at the moment, how fast can they go against the wind, retract the sails, speed up to catch up, and stick to them." ”
After leaving Bingzhou, Liao Wuan did not suppress the bandits, and he was also a little sorry in his heart.
Now that he is in the domain, his desperate idea of making contributions can only be temporarily put aground, just waiting for the great cause to start a war against Chen Han and Zhang Zhou in the future, and at that time, it is the time for him to show his strength.
However, it is also excellent to practice with these thieves.
On the second fleet, King Kongu also said loudly: "Speed up, catch up!" ”
After exterminating the bandits, Zhu Jun originally wanted him to stay on Peach Blossom Island to train troops, but it backfired.
The fleet was fast, and the small boats that focused on speed had already been launched and rushed towards each other.
Because of the strong wind and strong waves, the pursuit was extremely hard, and the speed of the opponent's escape was greatly reduced.
In the face of the enemy sent to him, Vajano's eyes turned red.
The oarsman in the cabin, his hand was fast, staring at the wind and waves, and he insisted on increasing his speed.
They train a lot every day, and their arms are thick and stiff.
But they can't stand their good food, ordinary people eat three meals a day, they eat four meals a day, or even five meals a day.
There are enough big fish, big meat, rice, and steamed buns.
Serving as a soldier under someone else, how can there be such treatment.
Not only do they eat well, drink well, and dress well, but they also pay three to fifty percent more money than the rest of the people every month.
So when you train, you work extra hard, and you dare to fight and kill.
"One or two rushes!"
Hundred flags shouted slogans, beat drums, and inspired people.
The man standing on the deck watched the big ship fly over the waves.
Little by little, the speed of both sides approached.
The people on the other side are not stupid, they began to spread around.
But at this time, if you want to escape, it is too late.
The pursuing soldiers had already surrounded them, and they could only continue to move on.
When the distance was within the range of the ship's guns, Liao Wu'an ordered, "Order, the ship's guns are on standby, shoot accurately." ”
When they raided Yingchang, only their main ship was loaded with ship guns, and now, after Zhu Jun didn't want to spend money, improved technology, and increased steel production, the number of their ship guns jumped to sixty.
It is not far from the 100 statues, and it is expected that it will reach 100 by the end of the year.
With a hundred ship cannons, the frontal cannonballs fired during the water battle will form a strangulation array.
When the two armies are fighting each other, when both sides use the weapons of slapsticks, ramming horns, and even stone guns, the ship cannon is undoubtedly an epoch-making weapon that can crush the other side.
And Zhu Jun means that next year, the number of cannons on the ship will be increased to three hundred!
Three hundred cannons, enough to cure the phobia of lack of firepower.
Under the strangulation of 300 ship cannons, even if the other party comes to many people, they have to kneel!
Liao Wuan stood at the bow of the ship, the sound of the cannon echoed in his ears, and the distance between the two sides was also canceled out after this cannon sound!
