The sea in Shandong, the sea breeze hunts and hunts, the blue waves are bright.
At this time, Yang Shanlu had already personally led the fleet on the expedition, and the lineup for this expedition was also relatively large. In addition to the 20 big ships dispatched together, another 5,000 Xuanjia army accompanied them on the expedition, including the late Ming Dynasty. Shen Yanyang, a well-known maritime expert, also set off with the same start.
In addition, Jin Yiwei Commander Luo Yangxing led a hundred Jinyi Guards, and he was actually smashed up, and according to his own statement, this time to go to Mansab and capture Manqing's remnants, it is precisely Jin Yiwei's effort. At the time, so he did his part to set off with the boat.
In fact, what he said was grand-sounding, and Yang Shanlu understood his thoughts privately, because he had already told Emperor Chongzhen before that after he had taken Manchuka, those who were going to garrison there would turn it into Daming's. A mansion, that is, Daming's first overseas colony!
So this is the power of opening up the territory! How could this shrewd Jinyiwei commander miss such an opportunity? In this way, did Qingshi retain his name
Even after he boarded the ship, the Jinyiwei commander didn’t understand maritime affairs, but after seeing the mighty appearance of the Great China Fleet, he couldn’t help but admire. It felt like the Zheng He treasure ship fleet, which was better than Cheng Zu’s, did not succeed. Give me more.
Of course, this is also very obvious. The current Greater China Fleet has refreshed the world indicators in many aspects! For example, the world's first iron ship, the world's first steam engine-driven fleet, the world's fastest fleet, and so on.
In addition, including the new artillery equipped on the fleet and the flintlock gun equipped by the Five Thousand Xuanjia Army, these weapons are also second to none in this world! (Even on this big iron boat, there is a small vegetable garden where you can grow vegetables, so it’s so awesome...)
Therefore, Luo Yangxing believes that with such a huge fleet armed from head to toe, he will cross the world and be invincible!
And Yang Shanlu, leading such a powerful fleet, and a fleet that has never appeared in history, he is also full of pride-the great voyage of the late Ming Dynasty, starting today!
According to the plan, he will go all the way south along the coast of Shandong, so that he will go to Fujian first to solve Zheng Zhilong's problem! Then go to Manchuga.
How to solve Zheng Zhilong depends on the situation at the time, but one thing is certain, that is, we will never let this kind of national thief be proud of it anymore, and even Yang Shanlu will “pass” once, according to what the old thief has done in history. For what he did, put him on a severe trial!
And there is no need to deal with the old thief. Don’t think he has 200,000 pirates at this time, but there are not many real henchmen, and these pirates have to look after the long waters from the South China Sea to Dayuan Island (at this time for Taiwan/ /The name of Wandao), because he has to collect protection fees.
In addition, Zheng Zhilong had already been washed ashore at this time. As a general soldier in Fujian, before Yang Shanlu did not express his intentions, he sent an official document to summon him as a special envoy. Would he dare not come
And as long as he came, Yuan Chonghuan had no imperial decree before, and he dared to kill a member of the party like Mao Wenlong, let alone now... So this time, the end of the old thief Zheng Zhilong has come!
Then after solving Zheng Zhilong's problem, he will continue southward, sail to the Strait of Malacca, capture Manchuka, and capture the future Emperor Shunzhi, thus ending the maiden voyage of the Great China Fleet.
And Yang Shanlu is full of confidence in winning Manchuka. Even though Manchuka is a country, it has a population of only tens of thousands, and there are only a thousand soldiers capable of fighting, which is far worse than Manchu!
So for such a weak chicken, it's a sure thing to win him! And for such a small country, he dares to provoke Daming and hide the remnants of Qing Dynasty. Yang Shanlu is really surprised... I don't know what the authorities in Manchujia think!
It's just that for such a brain-disabled enemy, who likes to find death on his own, and sits on Baoshan without knowing it, isn't it the more the better for the Da Ming who has grown stronger and has his sights overseas? Welcome to die!
After that, there was nothing to say. After about half a month's voyage, the Great China Fleet arrived in Fujian waters.
And I have to say that an ordinary fleet travels faster by sea, not to mention such a power fleet! For example, there are more than 2,000 miles from Shandong to Fujian. If you travel by land, it would be pretty good to be there in two months, but what about now
It was early summer, and the sea breeze was still very gentle on his face, and then Yang Shanlu led such a large fleet, walking among the blue water and blue sky, still very proud! Including at this time, he had sent someone to Zheng Zhilong to send an official document so that he would wait in the Fuzhou General Military Mansion and wait for his call.
But at this moment, the watchpoint on the ship suddenly sent a message: "An unknown situation was found ahead! Many ships of unknown origin are approaching!"
"What's going on?" Yang Shanlu was a little surprised, but when he also picked up the telescope to observe, he discovered that nearly a hundred ships had surrounded the Great China Fleet! Although most of these ships are small and medium-sized fortune ships, they can't hold many ships! This posture is as if a group of ants surround an elephant!
Including this time, the opponent's fleet also sailed out of a small boat, and then sent a semaphore at them, to the effect of asking them to slow down, they had something to say.
In this case, Yang Shanlu ordered the fleet to slow down, but he wanted to see what these people of unknown origin were doing!
Then after the two parties approached, a loud voice appeared on the boat on the opposite side, and began to scream, and only waited until Yang Shanlu and the others listened to it, but they were amused... It turns out that the other party was actually there. Said that if you are fancy to these big ships, you have to leave half of them before you can leave, and they are called tolls!
It's just that Yang Shanlu really doesn't understand. Who gives them the courage? Didn't you see that he had already played the banner of Daming Navy? Including the banner of the Xuanjia Army, and the Dragon Banner of the Emperor Xuanhuang that only has the right to fly by imperial orders, he also fought out early, but it's all like this, the other party would dare to rob
"Knowing Lord Hou, according to what the observation post has just observed, this group of people just appeared from the direction of Matsu Island, so they should be the armed forces on the island." The guards who came to report did not dare to directly point out, but The term armed forces is used.
Only after Yang Shanlu listened, he smiled coldly, what kind of armed forces? It's just a group of pirates! Because this is already the sea area of Matsu Island, and it is very close to Fuzhou, where Zheng Zhilong is based, only a mere over a hundred nautical miles away!
But this kind of thing will happen at such a close distance? You must know that Zheng Zhilong is now overwhelmingly powerful, and the entire South China Sea is his sphere of influence! Here is his core area! But now? How could this happen again
So Yang Shanlu knew that Zheng Zhilong's arrogance, or lack of restraint on his subordinates, seemed to be above his imagination!
Including this time, the Jinyiwei commander Luo Yangxing, who was standing next to him, was interested in enjoying the sea scenery with him, but now, suddenly I saw such a poorly-intentioned fleet, and it is likely to go to war. He just turned pale with fright...
Although he is very confident in the combat effectiveness of the Great China Fleet, the problem is that the hero can't stand the crowd! There are a total of 20 big ships here, but the other party rarely says that there are hundreds of ships, and most of these people are local indigenous people, occupying a geographical advantage, so if this is a fight...
On the contrary, Yang Shanlu, looking at Luo Yang's fearful appearance, is a bit contemptuous, the country is weak, and the dignified Jinyiwei is so virtuous! But at the moment they are still in the same boat, so I comforted him: "Lord Luo don't be afraid, let's look at the official's methods!"
Including this time, Yang Shanlu had already seen that because he refused the request of the other party and did not hand over half of the big ships, these lucky ships began to move rough... Pulled off the cannon coverings on the ship, revealing the black hole cannon that it carried. Mouth... Since the intimidation cannot be achieved, it must be seized by force!
Even the pirates on the opposite side, Zheng Zhilong’s subordinates, are probably still very proud of it... These rookies on the opposite side should be scared and stupid... Don’t look at the big ships, but in their eyes, these are new ships.
They were all newbies, so who else would they rob if they didn’t rob
Of course, this kind of thing, if it were on land, would rarely happen. How dare to attack the Xuan Jia army? Is that impatient to live? But now for these pirates, that's another matter. Sorry, they don't know the banner of the Xuanjia Army!
Including the banner of the Daming Navy they knew, so what? They are still Daming naval masters themselves! Including now, but in the boundless sea, whoever has the big fist makes sense! And wait until the uncle grabs the boat, pats his butt and walks away, what can you do to me!
(In fact, they don’t know that the telescopes equipped with Yang Shanlu are all high-tech products, and they have already seen their origins clearly)
If this is the case, the other party decided to use force to compete. Yang Shanlu is so polite. Anyway, his Great China Fleet has not opened yet! So the next moment, Yang Shanlu waved his hand fiercely and said, "Hit me fiercely, and teach these bastards a good lesson!"
"Yes!" So after the soldiers below took their orders, an asymmetric naval battle with big bullying started like this! (End of this chapter)
