Wanli Sunshine, with cruising speed, slowly came to Anqing Port.

Shi Kefa is ambitious, and plans to start from here, roll up his sleeves and grasp production.

Unexpectedly, before the ship could be stopped, I saw chaos on the wharf from a distance, and it seemed that many ordinary people were rushing for grain, and the officers and soldiers not only did not care, but were helping.

Shi Kefa Daqi: "What are you doing?" ”

Iron Bird Fei put down the binoculars in his hand: "I can't understand it either!" How outrageous it is that the imperial court would take out the trough grain and distribute it to the people. Change the image of the imperial court in my mind! If the imperial court had done this a few years earlier, there would still be rogues. ”

Shi Kefa couldn't cry or laugh: "Don't be weird, not all corrupt officials in the court, there are also many Qing officials who are working hard to help the people." ”

Iron Bird Fei spread his hands, with an expression of "I believe you are a ghost".

With a mentality of "watching the excitement", the Wanli Sunshine slowly approached.

However, at this time......

Someone shouted: "The Huangmei water thief is coming, the Huangmei water thief is coming, run ...... quickly"

The tankers did not move, and the ships loaded with grain could not move quickly, but the hundreds of merchant ships and fishing boats parked in the docks sailed out of the harbor one after another and fled downstream.

Shi Kefa thought that he had scared them, so he quickly took out the shouting microphone and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Don't be afraid, I am an official of the imperial court, and this is the ship of the imperial court......"

However, it was useless to shout a few times, and the ships continued to run wildly.

Shi Kefa: "Huh? ”

A medium-sized merchant ship passed by very close to the Wanli Sunshine, and Shi Kefa hurriedly shouted at the ship: "What are you running? As I said, this is the ship of the imperial court. ”

A middle-aged man dressed in merchant clothes appeared on the merchant ship and shouted at Shi Kefa: "We know that we didn't run because you came, it was the Huangmei water thief who came, so you should run quickly." ”

Shi Kefa: "I am an official of the imperial court, how can I see a thief fleeing?" What is the Yellow Water Thief? ”

The merchant roared urgently: "The Huangmei water thieves are a large group of water thieves entrenched in Huangmei County, very powerful, the kind that kills people without blinking. In the past, the force was still small and did not dare to attack Anqing Port, but now the Huangmei water thieves have merged with the eight kings of the Liukou! The Eight Kings, the madman who burned Fengyang. Now the eight kings are fighting them on the land route, and the Huangmei water thieves are fighting on the water, both land and water are going hand in hand, and the end is ferocious, and the political envoys have nothing to do with them, so you can run away. ”

Shi Kefa: "!! ”

He turned his head to look at Tie Niaofei and Jiang Cheng, and the latter two were also shocked, it turned out that Liukou was not only in Henan, but had actually come to the Yangtze River.

"The water thieves are coming!" The sailor in charge of the lookout shouted.

Everyone ran on the side of the boat, and when they looked upstream, a large number of small boats, like ant colonies, rushed densely on the water.

When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but feel a little numb.

In the past, everyone had not fought water battles on the Yellow River, but the water battles on the Yellow River were only a few boats, and the scale was cute. When I first came to the Yangtze River, I realized that the style of the Yangtze River has many bunkers, and the boats of the water thieves are like ant colonies......

Shi Kefa sneered: "So much? ”

"There's nothing to be afraid of, it's all small boats that don't crash." Jiang Cheng: "Let's bump into it first." ”

"Well, hit! Protect civilian boats. Shi Kefa's spirits perked: "You can't back down." ”

The Wanli Sunshine was fully powered and rushed towards the small boats of the ant colony boat.

Wang Gongbi, the political envoy on the dock, also saw the Wanli Sunshine at this time, and just now he heard his scouts report that a huge ship was twenty feet, and he didn't feel anything. After all, just listening to the numbers is not enough to be imaged, and it is not shocking enough.

Now that I saw the huge hull of the Sunshine with my own eyes, I was really frightened.

"What a big ship! Where did Shi Kefa get such a big ship? Wang Gongbi jumped up suddenly: "Shi Kefa rushed over at the Huangmei water thief, oops! Will he have a water fight? If there are too many ants, they will bite the elephant to death. ”

He was sighing, and the soldiers on the left and right had already surrounded him: "Master, the Huangmei water thieves have arrived, they may attack the shore in a while, let's quickly retreat to Anqing City, don't stand on the dock anymore, it's too dangerous here." ”

Wang Gongbi: "Huh? Shi Kefa fought there, how could this official have a reason to retreat? Shi Kefa will not retreat, and neither will we retreat, and we will hold the shore to the death. ”

The soldiers had no choice but to respond, and together with a group of sparse guards with very low fighting spirit, they stood on the shore of the dock, holding bows, arrows and spears, and looked nervously at the river.

The battle on the river soon began.

It was a group of small ships to deal with, and the cannons of the Wanli Sunshine were not needed, the door covers were not opened, and all the cannons were hidden in the stomach, which looked like an ordinary large cargo ship from the outside.

But it's just too big!

The Huangmei water thief is a little panicked now.

They were all small fishing boats of two or three people, or six or seven people, and the whole boat was not as high as the waterline of the Wanli Sunshine, and the water thieves were also startled when they saw the behemoth rushing over: "What the hell is that?" ”

"It's not a Western warship, and a Western warship isn't that big."

"Could it be...... Is it Zheng He's treasure ship? ”

"Don't be stupid, Zheng He's treasure ship has long been lost."

"It's coming!"

"Shoot the arrows!"

The water thieves still want to fight, in a vain attempt to "kill the elephant with more ants".

But this is not going to happen.

The fire guns on the ship "banged" and slammed into the ant-colony boat, which had no cover or a place to hide, and in the blink of an eye, the vanguard of the water thieves was beaten to pieces.

When Wang Gongbi on the shore saw this scene, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Shi Kefa's family soldiers are so powerful, there are so many firearms!" ”

Wang Gongbi instantly turned into a cheerleader: "Fight!" Hit hard! Well played! ”

I saw the Sunshine of the Miles rushing left and right in the group of small boats, as if entering a no-man's land, and those small boats still wanted to get close and throw their claws to climb onto the boat, and win by numbers.

However, this trick can only be effective against large ships with cold weapons, and for large ships with a large number of firearms, they will be beaten condescendingly when they get close, and it is impossible for them to climb up.

After a while, the water thieves were beaten to the point of crying dad and mother.

They couldn't even handle the surface of the water, where could they still care about landing and looting, and they didn't dare to rush ashore again, and the water thieves led by the water thieves gave an order, and the water thieves retreated one after another, and the small boats of the ant colony ship fled upstream.

Shi Kefa: "Chase!" ”

"No need to chase." Jiang Cheng shook his head: "There are so many of them, when they arrived at the place where the hydrology of the Jiujiang estuary in the upper reaches was complicated, they scattered in a hurry and hid in the reeds. How many can we catch? The pursuit didn't make much sense. ”

Shi Kefa's brain woke up: "That's right." ”
