Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

On the boundless ocean, two unique Japanese Ataka boats are dragging their extremely deep-draft hulls against the wind, and their slow pace shuttles through the endless blue waves, staggering and bleak like a dying old man.

The Anzhai Ship is a large ship that appeared in the middle and late Warring States Period in Japan. It is essentially a slow offshore ship that is not suitable for long-distance voyages, just because Japan’s shipbuilding industry is backward and the distance between Ryukyu and Satsuma is not very far, and The load of the Anzhai ship is generally relatively large, so it has become the main force of foreign trade without hesitation.

On the sea at the end of November, the huge fireball outside the sky has been unable to stop the raging north wind, so except for a few sailors who had to stay outside to sail, the rest of the two Anzhai boats were huddled on the upper deck. Eating wine and warming the fire in the shape of a castle-like house, he has completely regarded the murderous ocean as a smooth path in his back garden.

However, the Japanese seem to have reason to think this way. After all, since Kamikaze helped Japan eliminate the invading Mongolian army, the Japanese have never been threatened by the sea. The same is true after the army is destroyed

"Master Matsushima, we have already passed Amami Oshima." With a gust of cold wind, the waterman who pushed in through the door reported to the samurai in front of him. At this moment, the sailors recruited from the pirates are naturally inferior to the executive officers sent by the old middlemen of the feudal clan. "Fangjin can be reached in four days' journey."

"Very good!" Matsushima Goro Zaemon, who was holding a handsome young man, was just a mid-level and low-level samurai supported by 130 five stones and eight, but at this moment he found the feeling of being in control of the feudal lord Daimyo. "It's really hard work, come here and pour wine for Kan Bajun." The young man hurriedly found a wine glass for Shuifutou. "This is sugarcane wine from Taiwan. Hongyi is said to like it very much. Come, drink a cup to warm your body."

Shui Futou drank the sugar cane wine, which was less than [-] yuan, in one gulp, and as a pungency diffused in his mouth, Shui Futou couldn't help squinting his eyes: "It's really different, but I still feel that Fangzu's sake delicious."

"As long as you go back to the feudal clan, the income from this trip is probably enough to drink ten years of wine." Matsushima said with a smile. It is better to believe that the water husband and the water husband will not bring private goods along the way than to believe that the sun rises from the west. It is even more difficult to get the same, but since I can also get a large amount of benefits from it, I just open my eyes and close my eyes to deliberately click through.

"How can there be so many." Shuifutou smiled wryly. Those who work hard will rule others. Don't look at them working hard all the way. If you want to come over and pick up a layer of skin, most of them are there. "If you can get four or five pens, you are already Amitabha."

Matsushima smiled and said nothing, but the careful Waterman noticed that he was absent-mindedly looking at the peachy-looking young man over there. Knowing that this lord could not hold back, Waterman immediately stood up knowingly: " My lord, please rest at ease, and I will report to you after Suwanose Island is over."

The waterman closed the screen door with his head, and saw the shadow through the paper screen door, the two figures were already entangled together, and he heard the sound of tsk tsk kiss, he curled his lips and cursed a pervert, and then walked out of the room However, when he was about to go downstairs, he glanced casually, and suddenly exclaimed: "Yi Chuan, Hong Yi Chuan!"

Except for the two who were still in the turmoil, the watermen who heard his call got out of their sheltered positions and looked around. Sure enough, a group of red barbarian boats flying the red and blue flags appeared behind them. They were all against the wind, but the figure-eight-shaped barbarians were obviously much faster than them, and one of them with a triangular sail chased after them at an astonishing speed.

"Fortunately, it's not a pirate. It should be a Dutch ship going to Nagasaki for trading." Seeing the leading spinnaker clipper slanting past the Anzhai boat at the tail of the team and then sailing away, the waterman couldn't help but grow With a sigh of relief, the two square sailboats slowly approached. "Show off the samba pattern and tell these Lanyis to obey the rules."

Seems to have seen the logo of the Shimadzu family, suddenly the two barbarian boats rose up with gunpowder smoke, and then the rumbling sound spread rapidly under the action of the air, the waterman turned pale with fright, but soon found that there was only the sound of the cannons. The water column splashed, and he felt relieved after knowing some barbaric rules.

But he was relieved, but Song Dao rushed out with his pants in his hands: "What was the sound just now, who is releasing the big tube!"

The waterman looked at Songdao's lower body disdainfully, but he explained in his mouth: "I just ordered the flag of my family to be raised, and Lan Yi may have seen it, and she is firing a cannonball to pay tribute."

Matsushima breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he think of fastening his trousers, but when he finished fastening his trousers, the two barbarians, which were bigger than Da'an House, were already approaching. Seeing the busy figures on the other deck, Matsushima was in awe. Said: "This Lanyi ship is really big. It would be great if this feudal clan could build such a big ship."

Lan Yi?Song Dao, who stared enviously at the opponent's boat, suddenly asked the waterman next to him in doubt, "When did the Lanyi boat change its flag?"

Waterman was also taken aback. The three-color voca flag of the Dutch East India Company is a well-known symbol in Kyushu. Gone, even the white between the red and blue is gone.

"I've been fooled, it's not Lan Yi, it's a pirate!" But before the watermen realized what had changed, there was another burst of gunpowder smoke from the opponent's ship, which was already very close, but it was different from the previous one. Empty cannon, eight jets of water shot up into the sky with the sound of the cannon---this time it was a real shelling.

"Hurry up and fight back!" Shui Futou shouted, but even if he hid in the narrow space between the main arrow cabin and the iron cannon, at a distance of more than two hundred steps, let alone a Shimadzu man with a Marugi bow could not shoot at all. Seeing the opponent, even the lead bullets fired by the invincible iron cannon at close range can't sustain it, and can only watch helplessly as the opponent tilts the artillery fire on his head.

"Idiot, missed again!" But the Japanese side was still in shock, and Maying and Karl, who were in command of the Flying Dragon and Flying Eagle respectively, were also furious. "How to aim! No way, tell the helmsman, find a way to go further." In this way, from 12 yards to [-] yards, a shell from a three-and-a-half-inch (equivalent to [-]-pound) gun fell on the Japanese. Sitting on the boat, it was overwhelming for a while, and the screams of the dead and wounded on the other side could not be suppressed even the sound of the guns. "Good fight, come again!"

It's a pity that they couldn't come. Because the sails were not lowered, the Flying Eagle and Flying Dragon had passed the Satsuma's bow one after another. If they wanted to hit each other, they would need to go through a U-turn.Seeing that the murderous opponent was drifting away, the Japanese breathed a sigh of relief. Matsushima, who still didn't understand why the opponent attacked him, cursed and asked Waterman to check the damage and casualties, but Waterman hadn't acted yet. The observation post Exclaimed again.

This time, it was the Knight who went ahead and came back, and the Knight who turned to the downwind side split the waves and killed it at lightning speed. When they passed by, three shells fired one after another, and one of them ignited Matsushima. The sail of the ship, and the other one shook the bow of the ship into the sea.But this is not over yet, the fast-loading Knight fired another volley just as it was about to pass by the last Anzhai ship, this time the shot was more accurate, and black smoke soon ignited on the Anzhai ship.

"Change the butterfly cannon (chain bomb)!" Chen Yi ordered the gunner to pay attention to changing the ammunition type. Before the attack, the Knight had once again caught up with the Japanese ship. "This time, we will break all their masts!" Chen Yi encouraged his men, and waited until the flying dragon and flying eagle on one side finished tilting their ammunition, and then he maneuvered the boat and approached. "Avenge your wounded brothers!"

The wax of the sealed chain bombs melted quickly under high temperature, and the three flying chain bombs approached the Japanese ship like meteor hammers, sweeping away all the obstacles in front of them with a crackling sound, and smashed the upper part of the mast in two before the last kinetic energy disappeared. cut.As a result, the sails of one of the two Ataka ships on the ocean were burned out, and the mast of the other was also interrupted. The Japanese, who could not borrow a little wind, had to start using manpower to paddle forward.However, how could the sailors of the boy battalion who were biting repeatedly like a pack of wolves allow them to succeed? Soon, the ships that changed their shells approached and fired at close range, and almost a dozen long oars were discounted in one shot. The ship was completely immobile.

"My lord," Xie Bao asked Ma Ying, who was the same age. "Flying Eagle called with a flag to ask, do you want to board the ship next?"

"What's the hurry, be careful of the trapped beasts." Of course, Maying said this not because of caution. "Tell Chu Jin and Chen Yi, don't be stingy with the shells, give Yu Hong the things on the ship, but none of those bastards will survive."

The bombardment continued, and since they had reached about a hundred paces, the three warships that killed the target all retracted their sails, and at the same time, countless cannonballs poured on the Anzhai boat, quickly turning the two boats into floating on the sea. coffin.

Seeing the sea surface stained red by blood and flames, and the swarm of sharks approaching, Karl couldn't sit still anymore. He came to the Dragon in a small boat: "Hey! You are an extreme waste, I hear It is said that a black slave can be sold for 25 riyals in Taiwan, and these Japanese should be able to sell it for a good price."

"Kajiaxi, a black slave is a black slave, and a Japanese is a Japanese, and they cannot be confused." Even so, Maying still gave the other party a face. "Use a flag to tell the knights and eagles that the bombardment can be stopped, and send people on board to search, but remember, if you encounter resistance, you will be killed."

Stepping on the bloody deck, the boy scout sailors carefully searched the cabins. However, it was not only the hull that was smashed to pieces by the artillery fire. The strange dead bodies made the young sailors vomit, but survived There are no survivors, and almost every survivor tried to resist. However, in front of the sailors with double protection of chain mail and sharkskin armor, the so-called one-piece and two-piece family heirloom sword became a joke. As for them There is only one end for resistance

"Get rich." At the end of the search, a silver mountain suddenly appeared in front of the sailors. Fortunately, these young soldiers and young soldiers have not been polluted enough, so they are just yelling at the moment

"It should be Satsuma exchanging Japanese gold for silver in Ryukyu." Maying judged after hearing this. Japan's gold-silver ratio is one to four, while in the world it is usually one to ten. This alone is enough for Satsuma Earn double the benefits, but it's a pity that it's cheaper this time. "If you don't hurry to bring it back, the Anzhai boat will sink soon."
