Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 212 Support Lingshan Guards

A small island called Chaolian Island.

Ashikaga Hisuki led thousands of people and hid here, which was also their stronghold.

At this time, we got the latest news that a huge warship had landed near Rizhao. According to the clues provided by Ding Gugang, the ship belonged to Zhu Xuan. Although it was very large, it was not hopeless.

As long as Zhu Xuan gets off the boat and kills people, it will be easy.

"The head of the Ashikaga clan will be willing to spare my life only if I take Zhu Xuan's head back."

Ashikaga Hisuki said fiercely: "Zhu Xuan, you must die!"

"grown ups!"

At this time, a Japanese came back and said: "Everything on the island has been prepared. In addition, we have arranged for two thousand people to go over to the Lingshan Guard. The Ming army of the Lingshan Guard was beaten until they were unable to fight back. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty Sun, you should rush to Lingshan Guard now."

Ashikaga Hisuki said coldly: "Find a way to lure Zhu Yunxuan here. As long as he dares to land on this island, he will definitely die!"

"Hi!"

The Japanese said.

Ashikaga Hisuki added: "In addition, a group of people must be arranged on the island. It doesn't need to be too many, just a few hundred is enough. Create a momentum of thousands of people. Only in this way can Zhu Xuan be attracted in. Go and get busy! "

After telling all these arrangements, Ashikaga Hisuki would not stop on the island and leave directly by boat.

The hundreds of people arranged were equivalent to cannon fodder and were destined to die on the island.

As long as Zhu Xuan can be killed, even if hundreds more people die, it will still be worth it to them!

After moving everything off the Yingtian ship, it was already night.

Although not all, some losses were finally recovered. The people of Jiacang Town were so grateful to Zhu Xuan that they knelt down and worshiped him several times in a row.

Wei Zhengcheng invited Zhu Xuan to the city. He wanted to hold a banquet to wash away the dust, but Zhu Xuan refused directly.

"We are still fighting now, and the Japanese pirates are watching eagerly around us. There is no need to worry about it. When all the Japanese pirates are wiped out, if I still have time, I will come to Rizhao and have a drink with Mr. Wei." Zhu Xuan said solemnly.

"Your Highness is right, I was wrong." Wei Zhengcheng said.

He had heard a little bit about the little emperor's grandson's fame.

Now after meeting and talking, he discovered that Zhu Xuan was even better than the rumors said. No wonder he had such a high reputation in the court and was favored by His Majesty.

Zhu Xuan asked him again about the situation of Japanese pirates near Shandong.

"The Japanese pirates here are all from the Japanese country and are all people of the Japanese country."

When it came to the Japanese pirates, Wei Zhengcheng gritted his teeth and said: "Over the years, the Japanese pirates from the Japanese country have been harassing us. Shandong is not very far from the Japanese country, and the Japanese pirates come very frequently! In the past few years, His Highness proposed a way to introduce the Japanese pirates into the interior. , and the method of encircling and killing them together is effective. But it doesn’t work recently. They have more people coming, and we can’t encircle them at all, let alone kill them.”

If they are Japanese pirates from Fujian, Zhejiang and other places, they may also be some people of the Ming Dynasty.

The Japanese pirates who invaded places such as Shandong and Liaodong were very few civilians in the Ming Dynasty. Most of them came from the Japanese country and were real Japanese.

They are more fierce and cruel.

Anything can be done!

Zhu Xuan said: "Japan is looking for death!"

That island country must be destroyed!

the next morning.

Zhu Xuan left Rizhao, led his troops back to the Yingtian ship, and set sail to Lingshan Guard to fight for support.

As for the fleet led by Xu Huizu and others, they have not been able to catch up so far. Compared with the Yingtian ship, the speed is not a little bit slower. They acted separately from Xu Huizu. Zhu Xuan thinks this decision is right.

Lingshan Guard is in Laizhou Prefecture.

The distance from Rizhao to Lingshanwei was not very far, and the Yingtian ship sailed for most of the day. That afternoon, they came to the sea area.

The Lingshan Guard's combat power was stronger than that of the Anton Guard, and they also had a certain number of warships. Before the Yingtian ship approached, they could hear the sound of cannons coming from the front, and they started fighting with the Japanese pirates.

"Speed ​​up and rush over!"

Zhu Xuan shouted.

The Yingtian ship accelerated forward and soon came to the vicinity of the warships on both sides.

Zhu Xuan looked through the telescope for a while and saw that the Ming army's warships were far less numerous than the Japanese pirates. Even though the Ming army had artillery, the accuracy was too low and the power was not enough. A few shots of the artillery fired only made a splash of water. , not even an enemy warship could be sunk.

The Japanese pirates did not have artillery, but they had bed crossbows and crossbows, which seemed to be more effective than artillery.

The Ming army was not capable of water warfare, and was basically forced to fight.

"fire!"

Zhu Xuan said loudly when he saw it.

The Shenwei cannon was quickly prepared. After stuffing the shells into the barrel, twenty artillery pieces were fired at the Japanese pirate warship.

The sound of the cannon firing was very shocking on the sea.

More than a dozen Japanese pirate warships were destroyed by artillery shells on the spot, without even a chance to dodge.

The powerful attack of the Yingtian ship stunned the Japanese pirates.

They saw the behemoth approaching, and it took them a while to react. They felt that something bad was going on. They couldn't contend with it. They changed direction and had to run away. But as soon as they ran out, the Yingtian ship caught up with them and opened fire in pursuit.

Astonishingly powerful cannonballs were fired, and the sound of explosions echoed on the sea surface.

In the blink of an eye, eight more warships were shattered by cannonballs.

When Huang Zhenghao, the commander of Lingshan Guard, saw the Yingtian Ship, he thought there was another enemy attack. However, when he saw the Ming Dynasty flag hanging on the ship and the power of the Yingtian Ship, all his worries were put aside. .

He had also heard that recently there was a super large warship in the Ming Navy, equipped with the most powerful artillery in the entire Ming Dynasty.

Those artillery pieces are incredibly powerful.

Just firing the first row of cannons scared away the Japanese pirates.

Huang Zhenghao said loudly: "Our reinforcements are coming, hurry up and chase those Japanese pirates, don't let them escape."

The remaining warships all went to sea to pursue the Japanese pirates.

They chased closely behind the Yingtian ship, and soon discovered that it was useless to chase and help at this time. They saw that the attacks of the Yingtian ship became more and more fierce, and more and more Japanese warships were sunk. .

Those Japanese pirates wanted to fight back with bed crossbows.

It's not that the range of the bed crossbow is not enough. Even if it can shoot at the steel cruise ship, it will only scratch the surface and not damage the main body of the ship.

"Keep fighting!"

Zhu Xuan said.

The Yingtian ship showed a crushing force and ran rampantly on the sea. No one could stop it. Only five of the Japanese pirate ships escaped in the end.

They still ran away separately, just so that Zhu Xuan wouldn't know which ship to chase.

"Stop!"

Zhu Xuan stopped chasing and said: "Go back to the land first and prepare to land."

Huang Zhenghao and the others were involved in a lonely battle. They could not even catch up. The Japanese pirates were almost killed and the whole army was wiped out. The rest fled. At this time, they saw that the Yingtian ship was about to return and were preparing to go back to Lingshanwei. They Get out of the way and let the Yingtian ship pass.

Return together!
