Then there was a hand-to-hand battle, and in the blink of an eye, half of the pirates were killed, and the rest all surrendered on their knees, and the entire island fell into the hands of the officers and soldiers. So by the time Liu Haojia landed, the officers and soldiers on the centipede ship were already cleaning the battlefield and searching the camp!

Seeing that the battle was over, Li Wenliang called the officers over to inquire about the situation. The officer said happily: "Young marshal, my lord, out of a total of 87 pirates, 36 were killed, and the rest were all captured alive!" Their big boss has been killed because of his stubborn resistance! Now the brothers are searching the camps and ships. ”

For this victory, Liu Haojia and Li Wenliang didn't care. Because the superiority in numbers and ships was simply too great, it was a doomed victory! However, when Li Wenliang saw Liu Haojia looking at the big hole in the captured ship with some distress, he said in a low voice: "Is this a distressed ship, young marshal?" ”

Liu Haojia said: "Yes, we need a large number of sea ships now, but now the shipbuilding is too slow, and it is better to capture it faster!" ”

Li Wenliang also felt the same way, and was just about to nod his head and agree, when he heard Liu Haojia continue: "But forget it!" Tell your brothers that there is nothing to worry about in battle, that we can rebuild ships without them, and that when people die, there is nothing! You officers also have to remember that don't think of exchanging the lives of your brothers for spoils! If the official knows, there will be no good fruit for you to eat! ”

Li Wenliang and everyone were very grateful when they heard this, and said: "The young marshal is compassionate, it is really a blessing for the sons!" ”

Liu Haojia waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, let's go and see the loot first!" ”

In fact, Liu Haojia's gesture just now was not pretending. Because for him, he mastered two shipyards. And it is foreseeable that more shipyards will be mastered in the future, and the shipbuilders will continue to expand, so sooner or later there will be ships, but there are really not many skilled sailors!

After all, China is a continental nation, and there are not many people who actually go to the sea to beg for food, but the population base is too large, so it seems that there are many people begging for food. So every sailor is a valuable asset to him. Especially since the current literacy rate is so low, anyone who wants to become a talent has to work on the ship for several years before he can be used. If it's really a loss, then it's distressed!

At this time, the final statistics came, and the Ming army had a total of 11 wounded soldiers, and no ones were killed! was hit by an artillery hit on the female wall and fell to the ground, and the soldier who didn't know whether he was alive or dead was rescued, it turned out that he was stunned by the artillery! Although there are some wounds on the body and the internal organs are also shocked, I will definitely survive!

The other two soldiers had more wooden thorns on their bodies, and they would not be afraid of their lives if they were bandaged after cleaning their wounds. As for the other people's wounds, they were simpler sword wounds, and they were all minor! So this battle has been completely won so far!

This was followed by the clearing of the entire island. After torture of the pirates, all the booty was found. Among them, the most valuable ones are more than 20 taels of gold and more than 800 taels of silver. There is not much money to distribute to everyone! In addition, there are a lot of goods, and if you sell these goods, you can get some silver.

The second is four artillery pieces, and a number of swords, guns, and firearms. But the most valuable ones are the two sea boats! Although a ship has a hole, it can still be used if it is repaired.

Hearing this, Liu Haojia waved his hand and directly bought all the prisoners of war and sea ships, and counted the silver into the spoils of war. Although the increase in silver is not much, it gives the soldiers a hope that the war will really come to the money! So after receiving the news, the soldiers were gearing up to fight the second battle one by one!

The second target approached by the fleet after four days of sailing. The target is a small island, with a band of pirates entrenched on the largest, largest island in the middle. According to Liu Guangting, the group of pirates was outnumbered, with eleven sea vessels. They also built cottages and cultivated fields on the island, and they are the overlords of this sea!

And among the pirates, this group of pirates is also famous! They had three leaders, and the big one was brave and daring. Cruel temperament, known as the Great White Shark!

The second master is said to have relied on his ability to operate the ship single-handedly when he was alone, and he escaped the encirclement and pursuit of many officers and pirates, so people gave him the nickname and turned over the flowers in the waves!

As for the three masters, it turned out to be a nest owner, but the news was revealed, and he had to go to the sea to be a coward! It is said that he was originally born in a lifting person, so he was nicknamed Scholar! The group of pirates led by these three men already has a reputation at sea!

Therefore, Liu Haojia asked the army to approach the target cautiously and carefully, try to get close at dawn, and surround them in the lair as much as possible.

By the time the sky was slightly brighter, I could already see a cloud-like island not far ahead. Then Li Wenliang did not hesitate to order to speed up. As they made a circle and approached from the east of the island, they were ready to cover the entire fleet with the help of the light at sunrise and get as close as possible to the island.

After receiving the order, all the sails were hoisted and the helmsman was replaced by the most experienced sailors. So the speed of the fleet is quite fast! By the time the sun rose and the fleet lost its daylight, they were very close to the island!

At this time, the galleys in front of the fleet had lowered their oars again, and the six-handed galleys were the vanguard, leading the fleet to outflank the left and right in two directions. Liu Haojia's purpose is to block all the pirates in this island and fight for no one to escape!

Liu Haojia stood at the bow of the boat and kept looking to the side, and suddenly, he saw a sail in the gap between the two islands, and immediately said to Li Wenliang: "Do you see the sail on the other side?" ”

Li Wenliang nodded, then looked at the lookout on the mast, and heard the lookout shout: "There are two ships raising their sails, and it seems that they have discovered us!" They were heading southwest, probably trying to escape! ”

Liu Haojia immediately became nervous when he heard this, he looked back at the fleet behind him, and saw that they had dispersed into small detachments one by one, and they were interspersed between the islands, and then he was relieved and felt that this writer could not escape!

However, he was still a little nervous and asked Li Wenliang: "Can the outflanking fleet on the other side be in place on time to block them?" ”

Li Wenliang was full of confidence: "Don't worry, the young marshal will definitely be able to block them!" We are all old brothers who have been rolling at sea for many years, and this tacit understanding is still a little bit, blocking these pirates is a piece of cake! ”
