The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 279 Capture Zheng Zhilong

Two huge steel warships, like the two largest steel behemoths, are showing off their might on the sea.

Those wooden ships were all broken down under the impact of the steel battleship.

The sailors above also fell into the sea one after another, fluttering non-stop in the sea.

When the giant ship passed by them, the waves raised smashed them into the water.

Zheng Zhilong watched the scene in front of him helplessly, but there was nothing he could do.

He clenched his fists tightly, his face twisted, and he kept cursing Sun Jie.

If cursing could kill, then Sun Jie would be dead by now.

The number of cannons falling from the sky is still increasing, and one after another heavy rain of steel keeps falling in front of Zheng Zhilong.

The whistling sound and the sound of piercing the air rang out again and again, and the sound of explosions and the impact of the water column hit the ears again and again.

The screams, the cracking of wood, the shouting, and other sounds gathered together to form a symphony of death.

The ships in front retreated desperately, and the ships behind couldn't retreat for a while. The two sides collided and mingled together, and it became a pot of porridge.

The Chang'an collided with the crowded convoy, smashing the frontmost ships to pieces.

Zheng Zhilong's subordinates looked at the Chang'an that was rushing towards them, as if looking up to a god.

"Ah, what kind of ship is this? Is it made of iron?"

"Ah!!! Why is it like this, why is it like this!!!"

These people screamed again and again, jumped into the sea, trying to escape.

The crowded ships retreated desperately, but it was not so easy for the already crowded ships to escape backwards.

Sun Jie looked at the crowded ships on the screen and said loudly: "Hit me hard to force them to surrender. If they don't surrender, keep hitting me. I want to see if their bones are hard or not. The shells are hard."

After Sun Jie's order was issued, the soldiers on the Chang'an lay on the deck holding their machine guns, and fired at the crowded ships ahead.

The sound of gunfire was endless, and the bullets roared towards the crowded ships.

The sawdust from the wooden boat was flying, and the sailors standing on the wooden boat were shot and fell to the deck or fell into the sea.

Those who survived looked at the hell-like scene in front of them, and jumped into the sea in a hurry.

Jumping into the water might still save your life, but if you keep fighting, you will only die, either you will be beaten to death or blown to death, or the way of death is different, but the result is the same.

The bullet fell into the sea water, sparking a series of sprays.

The smell of blood became more and more viscous, and the voices of crying father and mother kept ringing.

Zheng Zhihu was sitting on the deck, as if he had aged in his teens, staring blankly at the front, and kept murmuring: "It's over, it's over, it's really over, we shouldn't come here, we The foundation is completely gone."

The madness on Zheng Zhilong's face turned into despair, his eyes were darkened, his feet were unsteady, and he staggered and fell towards the deck.

The personal guard standing beside Zheng Zhilong quickly supported him.

"It's over, it's over, it's completely over now."

Zheng Zhilong struggled to break free from the hand of the guard, looking at the scene ahead with despair.

"Brother, let's surrender, let's surrender quickly. The fleet behind is crowded together, and the fleet ahead is also crowded together. If we don't surrender, our entire army will be wiped out."

Zheng Zhihu got up, ran to Zheng Zhilong's side, and yelled loudly at Zheng Zhilong.

"Crench!"

A tooth-piercing voice came, and on the sea ahead, a blessing boat was smashed by the Chang'an.

That tall figure looked like the back of a ferocious beast.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Zheng Zhilong yelled again and again.

It's too late to leave now.

The two warships Chang'an and Fuping had already rushed over.

Just like an icebreaker sailing in the polar regions, it pushed the blocking ship hard into the sea.

Zheng Zhilong held his forehead with his left hand, pointed at Zheng Zhihu with his right hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Surrender? Sun thief is not a good thing. If we surrender, he will never spare us!"
Can't surrender, can't surrender, fight to the end with him, fight to the end! "

In the end, he still has obsessions in his heart. Now, where does he have this capital?

"Brother, at what time do you still care about these family properties? We had nothing when we made our fortune. Although it is gone now, it doesn't mean that we can't make a comeback in the future. If we keep the green hills, we don't have to worry about running out of firewood."

Zheng Zhihu's eyes widened, and he kept yelling at Zheng Zhilong.

Zheng Zhilong pointed to Zheng Zhihu, then pointed to Sun Jie's Chang'an, and wanted to say something, but the hull suddenly shook, coupled with his panic, he passed out all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Zheng Zhihu hurriedly yelled: "Bring Big Brother back to the cabin, take him back to the cabin!"

After Zheng Zhilong left, Zheng Zhihu let out a long sigh, and then shouted loudly to the surroundings: "Give them a semaphore, let's surrender, surrender."

If you don't surrender, there is no way out.

He looked towards the direction of the cabin, as if he had been drained of strength, he hurriedly supported the side of the boat and gasped for breath.

The semaphore of surrender kept spreading on the sea, and after a quarter of an hour, all the ships knew the order to surrender.

Those who survived felt a sense of relief at this moment, it was better to be alive than to be dead!

"My lord, they surrendered."

In the command room, a staff officer looked at the content on the screen and hurriedly looked at Sun Jie.

Sun Jie replied: "I saw it."

"My lord, could these people be pretending to surrender? Zheng Zhilong is the most treacherous and cunning person who has been able to roam the sea for such a long time. What if they are pretending to surrender?"

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the fleet on the screen and said worriedly.

I have dealt with the thieves for a long time, and I am afraid of the thieves' false surrender, and it is normal to be worried.

Sun Jie shook his head and said, "You are completely overwhelmed. Even if they pretend to surrender, with our strength, we can make them surrender."

"The order to go down, stop the shelling, and prepare to surrender!"

Leaving an order, Sun Jie walked out of the command room.

Standing on the port, holding up the binoculars and looking at the sea ahead.

The ocean era belonging to Sun Jie is coming.

A huge iron curtain will rise from the west of the Pacific Ocean, and soon, it will cover the whole world.

There are still a lot of ships on the sea, and many of them can be used normally.

The capture of these ships was also a good thing for Sun Jie.

In the future, wooden warships and iron ships can be used to form a joint fleet.

This will not only reduce costs, but also ensure combat effectiveness, killing two birds with one stone.

The news of Zheng Zhilong's surrender quickly spread throughout the coast, and all the soldiers on the defensive position cheered loudly.

"Victory, victorious, victorious."

Excited shouts spread throughout Tianjin Port.

At the same time, the sailing battleship behind Zheng Zhilong hurriedly turned around and fled.

When Sun Jie's shells were set off, Lei Bunuo realized that something was wrong.

I just stopped and watched for a while, and then left without staying for a moment.

Lei Bunuo is a smart person, he doesn't think Zheng Zhilong can win in this kind of artillery fire.

Sun Jie defeated Zheng Zhilong, whether he can let him go is open to debate.

In case of being noticed, there is only one dead end left.

"God, what kind of weapon is this? Why is it so powerful? How many magical things exist in this mysterious Eastern Empire?"

Rebunor stood on the deck, whispering to himself with lingering fear.

The continuous artillery fire before had really frightened him a lot.

In the western world, he had never seen such a powerful artillery, as if God had sent down the supreme punishment.

The cannon fire that filled the sky was the anger of the gods.

"This magical Eastern Empire is really terrifying!"

Soon after, the Chang'an returned to Tianjin Port.

After sending the captured prisoners to the shore, they sailed into the sea again.

The number of captives was so great that it was impossible to catch them all at once.

When the Chang'an returned to the voyage for the second time, the three brothers of the Zheng family squatted on the deck "obediently".

Zheng Zhilong hadn't recovered yet, and was still in a deep sleep.

Zheng Zhihu kept looking around.

He kept knocking on the deck, trying to verify whether it was steel or not.

The feedback force told him that this is steel, indestructible steel.

"What kind of terrifying power is it that can build a giant steel ship?
So much iron, if used to make weapons, might be able to arm tens of thousands of people! "Zheng Zhihu sighed again and again.

It's not enough to be unconvinced, the Zheng family can't get out of so much iron alone, let alone build ships.

It took five or six days to clean the battlefield. This time, Zheng Zhilong captured more than 400 warships, most of which were small sampans, no less than fishing boats.

The number of warships destroyed is not clear. Under the baptism of shells, many ships were blown into planks, so it was not clear how many ships were destroyed for a while.

There are more than 100 medium-sized ships, while there are less than [-] larger Fuchuan ships.

As for the huge ships in Zheng Zhilong's hands, there were only less than fifty of them.

These large ships are large in size and have a large bombardment area. Once they are hit, the only way to be destroyed is to destroy them.

In addition to these ships, the captured pirates also looked like fifteen or six.

After repairing these big ships, they can still be used with Chang'an.

But these small boats are completely unusable for Sun Jie.

Sun Jie sat in the command room, flipping through a list of seizures.

After a long time, he raised his head and said to Lu Xiangsheng beside him: "Those small boats that can only accommodate a dozen people should be dismantled, these boats are useless at all.

Those medium-sized boats can be repaired, and they can be used for short distances and inland rivers in the future.

As for these big blessing ships, they will be well repaired and used as supporting ships for the Chang'an. "

Lu Xiangsheng stood beside him, quickly recording Sun Jie's arrangement with a pen and paper.

After recording, Lu Xiangsheng said: "Your Majesty, have you seen the three Zheng Zhilong brothers?"

"See, see, why didn't I see you. Why didn't I see the famous Emperor Hai?" Sun Jie said.

A magical figure who has crossed the sea for decades, how can he do it without seeing him? !
Sun Jie said: "Just bring the three of them here."

A few quarters of an hour later, Lu Xiangsheng walked in with a dozen soldiers escorting Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao.

"Your Majesty!"

The soldiers guarding Zheng Zhilong pressed Zheng Zhilong's shoulders, pushed him to the ground, and kept shouting loudly.

Zheng Zhilong straightened his legs, fixed his eyes on Sun Jie, but refused to kneel down.

Sun Jie waved at the soldiers guarding Zheng Zhilong, and said, "Okay, don't let them kneel down, get them some chairs and let them sit."

"Hmph, the cat cries and the mouse pretends to be merciful."

Zheng Zhilong didn't accept Sun Jie's affection, turned his head aside, and snorted coldly.

"You have the backbone. How can you surrender if you have the backbone? Why don't you go to the funeral with your fleet?" Sun Jie looked at Zheng Zhilong.

Zheng Zhilong was speechless.

When the three chairs were brought over, the three Zheng Zhilong brothers were not polite and sat on them directly.

Sun Jie walked up to Zheng Zhilong and looked at Zheng Zhilong carefully.

Zheng Zhilong's face is very in line with the aesthetics of this era, the sky is full, the land is wide and round, and there is a trace of rebelliousness flashing between his eyebrows.

"You made your fortune from the Hirado domain, right? You used to work under Li Dan, a maritime merchant. Li Dan had no children. After his death, he gave you his property as a gift.

Since then, based on Li Dan's foundation, you have fought at sea for many years and created a foundation that is far bigger than Li Dan.

I heard that you married a Japanese wife, Tagawa Matsu, the daughter of Hirado Clan vassal Tagawa Yuhuang.

……

In the first year of Chongzhen, you were recruited by the governor Xiong Wencan, and finally promoted to the general army of Fujian, with thousands of ships and tens of thousands of troops.

This Tianchuansong also gave birth to you a son named Zheng Sen, right?If I guessed correctly, this Zheng Sen is now in his early 20s. "Sun Jie looked at Zheng Zhilong, and slowly said the background information of Zheng Zhilong in history.

Zheng Zhilong looked at Sun Jie and snorted coldly: "This is something that is well known in the world, what's the point of you saying it now?"

If there is no accident, Zheng Zhilong's son named Zheng Sen is Zheng Chenggong who helped the Ming Dynasty fight against the Qing Dynasty and was named the King of Yanping in the future.

After a long while, Sun Jie looked at Zheng Zhilong and said slowly: "I heard that you have been transporting those people from the southeast coast to Taiyuan Island?"

"Hmph, are you in control? You don't have to hang me like this if you want to kill or cut me up." Zheng Zhilong snorted coldly and cursed.

"Do you think with my current strength, can I completely defeat Hongyi, can I occupy Luzon, Java, Temasek, Champa and other places?"

Sun Jie was not annoyed, but asked again.

"With your two steel warships, I can still believe in defeating Hongyi on Taiyuan Island, but I don't believe in capturing Luzon Temasek.

It's not that I underestimate you, you don't know the details of these Hongyi and Flangji at all, and the power in their hands is no less than yours. "

Zheng Zhilong took on the contemptuous expression.
