I drove along Yibei Port east and west for two or three days without encountering the Red-Fare Yi again. More than 500 soldiers practiced day by day, and gunpowder and weapons were urgently needed to be supplemented.
I heard that the Ming Dynasty’s port construction officers were working together and the staff from all over the world gathered together. People moved in the port every day, with more than 500 households scattered, and more than 100 soldiers were recruited, with more than 600 people in the fleet!
Ding Yi returned to the port and called Fu Laojiu and Li Xiunian, and told them to pay attention to it. He left behind a hundred new soldiers, with Fu Daguan as the chief and Li Sanlang as the assistant, and selected two veterans from Lao Lin as the general, and trained and alerted at the port! And urge the prisoners to work.
Fu Daguan is the nephew of the old Fu clan, 31 years old. Kong Wu is powerful, likes to hunt, and has good archery skills.
Ding Yiming Fu prepared the horses and went far away to detect the provocation. Once the Hongmao Yi and the ship were found, they would immediately enter the forest that had been explored. They would go back to Fuzhou to replenish supplies, and report to the admiral, bring the army to help, strive to plow the grounds and clear the Hongmao Yi at one time!
When returning to the mainland, the sailors were ecstatic and cheering. The Ming Navy had not made any missions to travel to the ocean for a long time, and they were all wandering near the sea. It took a long time to run to the ocean for half a month!
Three warships pulled their sails and headed towards Fuzhou! But suddenly, a scout who was released from afar came from the east on horseback and reported to find ships fighting on the sea east of Yizhou!
On the sea, there were three ships about thirty meters fighting. Two ships were hanging banners with hooks on one left and right, and they were wrapped around a merchant ship with hooks on the front. There were wooden ladders with hooks at the front. A group of guys with various hair shapes and clothes were jumping on the gang, some were flying in the air with ropes, and some were running from the wooden ladder like juggling. Some people flew directly over. On the side of the ship, dozens of people were holding bows or muskets and kept shooting targets on the merchant ship!
On the Zhang boat, someone was shouting: “Do it in, pour it in, brothers, come on, drink a big bowl of wine, eat meat in big mouthfuls, get this ticket, take three days off, and send money to go shopping in the kiln!”
Someone shouted: “Don’t worry, boss, Xiao Taohong hopes you can’t sleep, brothers, please steal her!” There was a burst of laughter in response.
The boss laughed and scolded, “Babys, hurry up, don’t wait for the sun to set!”
The merchant ship was beaten into a ball, and the feathered arrows flew in the air, and the sound of banging sounds were endless. People who jumped into the sea from time to time, and the crew couldn’t stop it and kept retreating.
At the door of the merchant ship’s cabin, a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes and over thirty years old was shouting: “Hold on, hold on, don’t let them stand firm, Boss Huang, come on, it’s up to you!”
“Master Chen, you can’t hold on anymore. The enemy has guns and arrows! Think about other ways!” A man in his twenties who was wielding a knife in the middle of the ship suddenly took a step forward, slashed the enemy who had just landed in the air, retreated, and shouted loudly to respond to the middle-aged man.
“Fire the cannon, fire the cannon!” Boss Huang turned his head and shouted, but saw that the sailors who were doing the cannon had already been chopped to the ground!
“The boat cannot save you Dahe Gang who wants to accompany you! Drive them down!” At this time, there is still a way for Master Chen to kill and rob. The pirates are not the targets that can surrender, they can only fight to the death!
A feather arrow suddenly shot on Boss Huang’s shoulder in the chaotic crowd. Boss Huang cursed, “Fuck!” and pulled the arrow shaft, pulled it down and threw it aside, and pounced on it again. This time, he ignored it and fought hard to kill the enemy and never retreated.
Boss Huang has good martial arts skills and cut down two people with one move. Unfortunately, the crew on the merchant ship was much worse than him, and they were all retreating. The enemy was extremely brave. He cut down one and pounced on two. He was walking on flat ground on the shaking merchant ship. He was all veterans who killed and robbed people. The knife was fatal. After a while, he hung five or six lottery tickets. Boss Huang was desperate. It was over today!
“Boom! Boom!” The water column aroused by two shells fell not far from the three ships fighting! About twenty meters, it’s already very close!
Three large ships of fifty or sixty meters were hung with sails, and evil tigers came over like food!
The sound of booming sounds was endless. Each cannon hit the place where the three ships were fighting, and the landing point was very close. It was not that the other party could not hit, but that he didn’t want to hit it at all, and the warning was very strong!
The pirates and merchant ships were entangled, and various hooks and ropes were tightly entangled, and they could not be separated for a while. The battle was too tense before, and the enemy ships entered the range. The two sides in the battle were stunned. The three warships were getting closer and closer, and the sun and moon flags were flying in the sunset!
“Save, haha, my Ming warship, I am saved!” The merchant ship crew exclaimed and cheered. Chen Dongzhu rushed out of the cabin and lay on the side. Regardless of whether the Ming warship could see it, he kept waved his hand and signaling! A pirate beside him held a short axe and could send Chen Dongzhu into the sea with just a slight swing. At this time, he was in a state of despair and dared not take action!
Three huge warships were parked close to each other dozens of meters away, and dozens of cannons aimed at two pirate ships. The position and angle were all the same. On both sides of the cannons on the side of the ship, there were crowds of people holding muskets and bows. On the mast watchtower, there were flag bearers constantly chanting the flag: “Surrender to avoid death!”
The people who knew the times were heroes, and the two pirate ships fell sails one after another to show their surrender. The pirate captain Zhang Shouyi tied his hands and put down a small boat. He ordered people to row to the flagship Yue Fei, kneeled at the bow of the boat and shouted: “Zhang Shouyi, the thief of the sea, tied up and asked, “Prison Zhang Shouyi, please surrender!”
“Rule thief? A murderer who robs, hum, gild on his face! Pull him up!” Ding Yi, who was leaning on the chair of the bow of the boat, holding a monocular telescope, smiled contemptuously and said disdainfully. The personal soldiers responded and rushed to the side of the boat to pass the order and pulled Zhang Shouyi up!
Ding ordered the flagship, and the Zheng He and Sun Bin stepped forward to surrender.
