Liu Haojia was relieved when he heard this, put down the binoculars and began to clean up his body. Seeing this, Li Wenliang hurriedly speeded: "Young marshal, where can you do such a trivial matter!" Just watch the brothers fight! ”

Liu Haojia speeded: "The official may not do it, but the official must go to the front to stand!" At least let the brothers see that the official is with them! And you don't have to worry too much, the official's martial arts are not good at sea, but it's still no problem to cut down one or two people on land! ”

Li Wenliang could only nod helplessly when he saw this, but he still squeezed his eyes vigorously at the family behind Liu Haojia! Jia Ding nodded knowingly, saying that he would do his best to protect Liu Haojia. Then Li Wenliang called his own soldiers and asked them to follow the young marshal, which could be regarded as reluctantly reluctant.

The other officers were also relieved to see Li Wenliang's arrangement! The Ming army sailors have suffered for so many years, and finally have a rich young marshal, who is willing to pay money to repair ships and raise soldiers, such a young marshal must not die early, and he still expects to follow him to be promoted and make a fortune!

Liu Haojia's fleet kept sailing on the sea, while the fleet behind him was getting shorter and shorter, and there were ships in groups of three or five interspersed from the gaps between the islands, like a dense net surrounding the entire island group, blocking every loophole!

And these soldiers are experienced, where can the island dock the ship door clear! They could make out the traces of docked ships. So they only had to look at it to know if there were people on the islands they sailed by, so they didn't waste any troops.

And those middle-level officers, with the tacit understanding accumulated in their daily lives, completed the reorganization of the fleet with only the banner, and gathered small units into large ones, surrounding the two islands with people in the middle of the island group! Even the two pirate ships that raised their sails at the beginning did not escape, and they blocked them! After two rounds of artillery, he had to abandon ship and flee back to the island.

Seeing that all the pirates were blocked, Li Wenliang finally ordered the flagship to lean up. When the flagship turned around the island, Liu Haojia saw more than a dozen sea ships parked on a rudimentary pier. Looks like we've found the pirate's lair!

In fact, this pier is not so much a pier as a simple trestle. Only two boats were docked on the pier, and the others were stranded and then on the shallows. However, there was no one on board at this time, and all the pirates had withdrawn to the cottage not far away.

More than 200 steps away from the trestle, Liu Haojia saw a log wall, about two people high. He was about to raise the telescope to look, when he heard Li Wenliang say: "Young marshal, I saw the real wolf!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Haojia raised his binoculars and searched on the wall, and sure enough, he saw the typical moon head of a martial artist flashing on the city wall! It seems that there are indeed Japanese people on the island. This proves that this group of pirates is indeed strong!

In fact, many people think that the Japanese are constantly invading the Daming Sea, but in fact, this is not the case at all! There are indeed Japanese pirates, but most of them belong to the bottom among the pirates, and the real pirates are really Han Chinese!

In the early Ming Dynasty, the policy of banning the sea has been implemented, and the sea was banned again not long after the occasional sea was opened. This forced a group of maritime merchants to smuggle and traffic goods secretly. But as time goes by, their strength is getting bigger and bigger, and they are naturally no longer satisfied that their business is limited to smuggling, they hope that Daming can open the sea! But their desire was hit doubly!

First of all, the officials of the Ming court! In order to maintain stability, they simply ignored Kaihai's opinions. In the eyes of these civilian officials who control the Ming Empire, stability is overwhelming! Any change is bad for them! So let's forget about such a complicated thing as opening the sea!

Another blow came from local high-ranking families and officials. These people control the freight at sea, and of course they don't want the imperial court to open the sea. So they can smuggle forever without paying a penny in taxes! They even try to keep their smuggling channels in their own hands forever, so that others will not intervene!

However, those strong maritime merchants naturally do not want to see this situation maintained, and at the same time, there are more and more people in their hands, and naturally there are good and bad, and it is inevitable that there will be people who plunder places, and even take them on the road of stealing and trading!

So if you open the history books and look at it, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, all the famous pirates were basically Han Chinese, and there was nothing wrong with the Japanese at all! They are most likely to act as cannon fodder and wage earners among pirates!

Just like Zhang Zongchang, the demon king of the mixed world during the Republic of China, he has a White Russian unit in his hand, and every time he fights, he puts the White Russian army at the forefront, taking advantage of the Chinese's fear of foreigners to charge, which can be described as a hundred victories!

And that's what these pirates do! They drove the Japanese to rush to the forefront and make a way for themselves. If you succeed, these widows will get a small amount of money, and if you fail, you can take a knife and stab yourself in the stomach!

As for more pirates, they are all from the seaside, and they are really afraid of being poked in the backbone by robbing their relatives! So I just shaved my head and pretended to be a widow! And the imperial court was naturally unwilling to admit to all the people in the world that the pirates were their own family, so they simply pushed the boat to give them the name of the Japanese Kou! Otherwise, according to the ability of the Japanese people, how could they cause trouble to the entire southeast!

However, since there are real widows with a moon head in this group of pirates in front of him, it means that this group of pirates is indeed very strong! After all, the Japanese are here to be pirates, not to die, and they have to choose a strong person to lead them!

Liu Haojia turned the telescope again, but this time he didn't see the Japanese people, but found the emplacements of four cannons on the wall! At this time, four artillery pieces were pointing at the beach.

Liu Haojia estimated the distance, put down the binoculars and said: "There is artillery on the wall of the wall facing the beach, maybe there will be casualties when landing!" It's really not okay, let the ships come over and break the opponent's gun emplacements before landing! ”

Li Wenliang said: "This is also the meaning of subordinates! ”

After saying that, he immediately waved the command flag and dispatched. The fleet around the island was quickly assembled and two rows were formed. All the assembled ships were large ships with more than four guns, and other small boats were constantly cruising around!

Seeing the Ming army approaching the dock, the pirates on the walled wall immediately became a riot! At this time, they were already desperately aware of the strength of the Ming army! In their opinion, this time they have no luck!
