Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 747

Three days later, the Daming Navy sailed through the waters of Palawan, and Liu Hongjian, Qi Yuangong, and Zheng Sen immediately became nervous. After all, Liu Hongjian killed the two Dutch governors within two months.

And now they are still leading the family, which reminded Liu Hongjian of a story in a TV series about a monster with long ears leading the whole city to immigrate, and ordered the whole army to enter a state of combat readiness.

It’s just that the Daming navy is not a long-eared monster, and the Dutchman is not Boss Cao, let alone Boss Cao’s decisive decision. The Dutchman almost watched Daming’s huge fleet swaying slowly from the south of the island.

There are quite a few Dutch warships on Palawan Island, basically the sum of the fleets of the East India Company in Taiwan and Batavia.

However, the current Dutch fleet would not dare to attack rashly even if they borrowed their courage. The news of the death of Jon and Owat has already sent a ship to the East India Company headquarters to report.

After no new governor is appointed from above, the best choice is to stick to the original position. If there is no fault, it is meritorious, and the Dutchman knows this truth well.

It is really the Beiyang Navy that left a deep impression on this fleet. In the eyes of the Dutchmen, the warships of the Beiyang Navy are very resistant to beating. Although the firepower is still not as good as their artillery, these people are too desperate.

If it wasn't for Governor Jon's decisive order to retreat that day, this Ming's fleet would probably run into them, and the result would be either you die or me die.

Locke, the deputy of the Dutch fleet, would like to ask the commander of the Daming Navy, everyone works for the company, so why work so hard?

But at this time Liu Hongjian didn't have time to answer him at all, this huge fleet was too complicated, there were seven or eight-year-old dolls and seven or eighty-year-old women in it.

Even the types of warships are varied, except for the main battleships of the Beiyang Navy at the front and rear, there are also miscellaneous warships of the Zheng Family Navy in the middle.

The number of warships is almost [-] times that of the Beiyang Navy, but the total tonnage is not as large as that of the Beiyang Navy. The rest are the large, medium, and small merchant ships of the Zheng family, and large fishing boats.

What's more, there are fishermen's broken fishing boats mixed in. Originally, Liu Hongjian's request was to only take people away, and each person could carry no more than ten catties of packages.

But it is really difficult to implement this order. The Han people have a habit of enshrining the tablets of their ancestors or the relics of their parents no matter where they go.

The soldiers of the Zheng family could say that their identities were different after all, but how could those ordinary fishermen agree.

Originally, it was a good thing for the Ming army to take them home. After all, the Zheng family had collapsed, and they could only be bullied if they stayed here. Those old items are discarded.

In the end, Liu Hongjian chose to compromise and agreed that these fishermen could hang their fishing boats behind the merchant ships and put necessary things on the fishing boats.

As for whether it will be overturned by waves or lost in other accidents during the journey, the fishermen are responsible for it, and the fleet will not stop because of this.

All of a sudden, the fleet became longer, and Qi Yuangong frowned even tighter.

He thinks that the admiral is good everywhere, but his heart is too soft, and he doesn't command soldiers with kindness. This is a joke about everyone's life.

If any fleet breaks through the center of the Ming Fleet at this time, the Beiyang Navy will not have time to organize an effective attack. The distance opened by the fleet is thirty or forty miles long from the beginning to the end, so that the walkie-talkie Liu Hongjian gave him It doesn't work anymore.

Baron Locke, the interim commander of the Dutch fleet, looked at the slow-moving Ming fleet in the sea and sneered.

"See, the Daming navy is as cunning as the businessmen of Daming. If this is not a trap, I will jump straight from here." Baron Locke said to his deputy very confidently.

Baron Locke has experienced the whole battle with the Daming Navy. He knows the combat style of this fleet. Through the telescope, he can clearly see that the broken ships in the middle are full of old wood and garbage.

The fleet is still moving so slowly, obviously waiting for their fleet to take the bait.

The affirmative answer from the deputy around him made Locke feel at ease, and the compliments from the soldiers beside him made him even more proud of his own judgment. He was simply a born admiral of the navy.

At this time, Comrade Liu Hongjian, known as the cunning admiral of Ming Dynasty, panicked a lot.

He didn't want to run so slowly either. The fleet was huge and messy. The most terrible thing was that the Beiyang Navy had insufficient coal reserves.

According to the current rate of consumption, the Beiyang navy might stop before reaching Taiwan, all because Liu Hongjian is too sloppy, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and when he sees the fleet, he wants to rush up and fight to the death.

Fortunately, it was headwind from Daming to Sulu, but tailwind from Sulu to Daming. In order to reduce consumption, Liu Hongjian had no choice but to order the fleet to reduce the power of the steam engines.

It took the slow-moving Ming Fleet a full hour to pass through the Palawan waters as a whole.

The stone in Qi Yuangong's and Zheng Sen's hearts finally fell to the ground, while Liu Hongjian murmured that it was boring, a bunch of cowards, and then entered the hatch and began to hibernate.

Sailing on the sea was boring, so boring that Liu Hongjian reviewed the action movies on his mobile phone again, which gave Liu Hongjian an illusion that yes, he missed his wives a little bit.

During the Hungry Ghost Festival on July 10th, [-] people from the Ming Fleet held sacrificial activities on board.

The Hungry Ghost Festival is a Taoist festival. Because Taoism is the state religion of Ming Dynasty, this festival is also very grand in Ming Dynasty. July [-]th is Xiaoqiu. Many crops are already ripe.

Originally, this sacrifice was just a few fishermen making it up. After all, it is at sea now, and even if the fishermen wanted to do it, they were worried that the navy officials would not agree.

It was because Liu Hongjian was really bored, so he looked around with the binoculars and found that this guy finally found something to do.

So the entire fleet on the boundless sea began to burn incense...

"Master, can this be done? Our hometown sacrifices are made of rice and wheat. Let's get three fish..." Niu Dabangchui muttered as he put the fish on the deck.

"You know what, my ancestors don't want to change their taste. It's so good to eat fish. It's high in protein and doesn't grow meat." Liu Hongjian bowed to the altar seriously, and then inserted the incense into the gap of the table. .

People who have never experienced boring days do not know how difficult this kind of life is, just like ordinary people cannot understand why Robinson Crusoe talks to a sheep, it is too difficult.

"It's nothing to be active if you don't grow meat. I eat fish these days..."

"My lord! Three merchant ships were found in the northwest of the fleet. They seem to be armed merchant ships!" While the master and servant were talking, Qi Yuangong's voice suddenly came from the intercom on the table.

"Armed merchant ship? But our Ming merchant ship?" Liu Hongjian asked in confusion.

Where else can merchant ships come from the north besides Daming?

Zheng Sen, who had been sitting on the edge of the deck, stood up. He took out the telescope from his waist and looked towards the northwest direction, his face turned blue immediately.

"Brother, that's Cao's boat!"

　Thanks to the book friend Coke mixed with soy milk, I don’t think about it, I look at the ax while I’m drunk, the flying dean, the person who lives in the memory, it’s so difficult to name it __reward 100 taels.
