As Zuo Liangmou and the others approached, they were also discovered by the five merchant ships on the opposite side. But with the help of clairvoyance, it is obvious that Zuo Liangmou's team has quietly gained the upper hand.

The fully loaded merchant ships were already running slowly, and under the siege of Zuo Liangmou's improved warships, they knew that they could not escape.

Seeing that the Japanese ship was coming with bad intentions, the people on the Gojo merchant ship panicked. Some shivered, others picked up their weapons and prepared to resist.

"The big treasurer, how can there be a ship of the Japanese Kingdom here, look like this is a Japanese Kou."

On the largest merchant ship at the head, an old man was so anxious that he stomped his feet, followed by a tall man about forty years old, with a fierce expression.

"Afraid of what? It's not like I've never seen it. Get the guys ready to fight hard. Negotiate with them with a banner. ”

The big shopkeeper said calmly, but involuntarily clenched his fists.

In fact, he was also frightened in his heart, this route is safe, how can there be a widow?

Moreover, after General Shangshan was exterminated by Xu Qin, there was no large number of Japanese robbers near the Daming Sea Frontier.

And this group looks like there are one or two thousand people, could it be that the daimyo of Shikoku or Kyushu came out to rob and rob them by pretending to be Japanese robbers? The improvised Japanese cogurates would never have such a ship and so many people.

The smug men on the Gojo merchant ships were all armed and ready to fight. They used to be smugglers.

Fight the pirates, fight the pirates, and even the smugglers rob each other when they see the opportunity. They are outlaws themselves, and their combat effectiveness is no worse than that of the Wakos.

"General, the flag is displayed on the other side, saying that they are tributary merchant ships protected by the Ming Dynasty."

Dai Demin stood by Zuo Liangmou's side, and he once traveled back and forth to the Japanese Kingdom for three years. He is familiar with everything about the sea and mountains, and is proficient in the Chinese and many Chinese.

At this time, when he was overseas, he naturally wanted to call Zuo Liangmou a general, not an adult. Every detail has been noted.

"Five boats, we can eat!" Zuo Liangmou said in a blunt Japanese dialect. He is now studying.

Dai Deqing understood what Zuo Liangmou meant, and even asked the boat to bring people, so he immediately asked people to play the flag.

The shopkeeper with a refined demeanor couldn't help but clench the handle of the knife when he saw the flag on the opposite side.

"The big treasurer, the widow asked us to keep all the big ships, and let everyone go."

The white-haired fifty-year-old man said anxiously to the fierce man.

He used to only stock and trade mostly in the port, but this was the first time in many years that he had encountered a Japanese robber, so he was naturally terrified.

"I'm not blind, he has a big appetite, it depends on how his teeth are. Ready to fight......"

The order of the fierce treasurer. He wants to make it difficult for the Japanese to retreat.

"Think again, big shopkeeper. If the goods and ships are gone, we can still save, but if the people are gone, there will be nothing. ”

The old man in his fifties said anxiously. As a result, before the words fell, the fierce shopkeeper shot out like lightning, and the head of the old man who was still chattering rolled off the deck.

Blood spurted everywhere.

"When you go to sea, you should have the consciousness of death, and the brothers have fought with the Japanese invaders." The big shopkeeper raised the bloody knife and roared.

"Fight it......" the guy roared. The big shopkeeper showed his attitude with the timing of his actions, and then he dared to say that those who surrendered would die.

All this was seen by Zuo Liangmou, and he immediately commanded five warships to row an arc and surround it.

In this way, you can use the maximum attack surface of your own warship to hit and hit merchant cargo ships.

The two sides quickly approached, and then each began to shoot with his bow and arrow. This is the characteristic of naval warfare in this era. After the bows and arrows shoot at each other, it's time to jump into the gang.

Until the other side is cut down, or one side surrenders.

In the days when there were no cannons installed on ships, war was so uninteresting. Zuo Liangmou brought elite brocade guards, well-trained sailors and soldiers sent by Xu Qin.

After a flurry of bows and arrows, the big shopkeeper with a fierce demeanor realized that something was wrong. The opponent's feathered arrows are too dense. It's overwhelming.

And there are also excellent shields, although those Japanese robbers are wearing the clothes of the Japanese country, but they are wearing the armor of the Ming Dynasty. What's going on?

Just as they were about to take over the ship, the ships left again. When he returned, there was another flurry of feathered arrows. Shot a large number of dead and wounded guys on the boat, and couldn't lift his head at all.

At this time, the big shopkeeper was even more frightened, how could these robbers have so many arrows? How can such a rich man come out to loot?

And the quality of this arrow is also too good, and it has a fight with the Ming official army. At first, his buddies were able to return fire with bows and arrows, but soon the daring ones were shot.

Now they can't hold their heads up at all.

"This damn would-be robber is too well equipped." A small leader of his subordinates scolded.

It is right to be extremely vicious, and only when you are poor comes out to rob. But the quality of the arrows they used, and the quantity of the rain that rained all over the place, showed that these people were very rich.

Then why come out and rob?

Before the words fell, the hull of the ship trembled violently, and it was obvious that the two ships were on board.

Suddenly, the gang jumped, and the Japanese had already jumped over to fight. The great treasurer quickly drew his sword and commanded the battle, and then he found that these people were different from the previous way of fighting.

It's not that as soon as his feet hit the ground, he brandished his katana and rushed up desperately with a scream.

Rather, after gaining a foothold on the ship, immediately three or five formed a small regiment, shields, bows, arrows, short swords, and spears coordinated with each other. The cooperation between small groups and small groups is skillful.

It didn't take long for his buddies to squeeze their fighting space clean. The battle-hardened and fierce fellow rushed up and was killed by an arrow before he could reach him.

The other finally slashed at one of the would-be robbers, the knife blocked by the shield, and a spear stabbed in the abdomen.

The third guy saw the opportunity and rolled over to open the small group. As a result, it was blocked by the knife hand inside.

Another sword and shield hand slashed off his arm with a backhand. Immediately after that, he was wiped on his neck.

Four or five men rushed over fiercely, either being shot halfway, or being wiped out by this small group of three or five people.

Both offensive and defensive, cooperate with each other, and even after space permits, they will instantly merge into a team, which is even more lethal.

This kind of battle formation can be divided and combined, and it can be changed flexibly, constantly devouring the life of this guy.

Battles like this are going on and on, and the tough guys are soon turned into corpses. These small groups of three or five people were simply designed for slaughter.

Not only the tacit understanding between the three or five people, but also the tacit understanding between the groups. In the small space of the ship, there was no room for the guys to fight back.

These small groups do not rush forward, and once they have established themselves, they move slowly.

The men on the ship were forced to keep retreating, and the would-be robbers shot them with arrows.

Those who were forced to rush forward were quickly slaughtered by this strange combination.

And as more and more of these pirates boarded the ship, they had less and less space. In the end, he was squeezed in the stern corner, and only the life of being slaughtered remained.

Five ships did this one after another, and they watched the fierce men who were following their own waves on the sea fall one by one. The big shopkeeper with a strong demeanor finally couldn't hold back, because he could see that these people were not ordinary widows.

Although he wears the clothes of a Japanese coward, he is by no means a Japanese coward.

"I will surrender!" The big shopkeeper shouted.

But the attack didn't stop, as if his words were farting.

There was no sound of resistance on all the ships. Less than a third of the men who had resisted were left, and the attack stopped.

The big shopkeeper threw down the blood-stained knife in his hand, and was tied up with a feather arrow on his body. Ironically, his knife was stained with the blood of his own people.

Two supply ships were not far away, watching the battle. Zhang Yuanxing's father-in-law, Mr. Hong, and his two apprentices are there.

They had asked to participate in the battle, after all, Xu Qin had a life-saving grace for them. I can't say it without making a little effort.

But the general contemptuously refused, and they began to think that it was contempt for themselves. But when they saw this battle, they realized that they couldn't do it.

It's not that the guys on those merchant ships are not fierce enough, some people's skills and fierceness that are not afraid of death are not even inferior to their masters and apprentices.

However, this kind of fierce personal bravery, in the face of this skillfully coordinated military formation, plus this combat space, is vulnerable.

They don't understand these coordinations, and going up can only disrupt the coordination of the military formation. Old Man Hong's grief and anger of ambition disappeared after seeing the leader surrender.

Because there were generally no women on board, his wife and daughter-in-law were waiting on a secret island.

The battle was over, and all the men were disarmed and imprisoned in the cabin. And those sailors were constantly pumping water to wash the deck, dealing with corpses.

"General, I'm willing to pay the ransom, me and the rest of the guys, and the guys' bodies."

The big shopkeeper knelt in front of Zuo Liangmou, who was dressed in armor and wearing a mask. It's not strange to wear a mask, because the generals of the Wa Kingdom, this mask is stranger than the other.

This is a tradition of the Wa Kingdom. Almost all the generals who fought in the war, how fancy the armor came, how strange the mask was.

"Zhao Dongchao, the chief shopkeeper of Chase Commercial Bank. The second eldest of the Zhao family in Guangdong. Am I right? ”

Dai Deqing stood beside the general and asked Zhao Dongchao proudly.
