Zeng Yiben was right, and it was not Lin Daogan who attacked Nan'ao Island. As he expected, for Lin Daogan, who is known for his loyalty, verbally threatening him was already the limit.

The attack on Nan'ao Island did not belong to any force in the Fujian and Guangdong waters, and the coast guard fleet that came three thousand miles south from the distant northern Danluo Island!

It was the tenth day of May that Zhao Hao ended his trial voyage of the new warship and returned to Danluo Island.

As soon as he arrived at Danluo Island, he learned two bad news. Jiangnan Trading was taken over at the commercial station in Ryukyu, and his father's boss was taken over before he took office.

At that time, Zhao Hao didn't know that Yiben had attacked Chaozhou City, so he could no longer sit still.

Mr. Zhao couldn't wait for the large army to prepare for going to sea, so the next day he took a task force composed of ten light warships to head south.

He left so hasty that even the supplies were completed in Chongming.

After resting on Chongming Island for a day, the fleet continued to move south. The two thousand miles of water from Chongming to Chaozhou could be completed in ten days if the north wind blows strongly.

However, it was mid-May, and the south wind was blowing on the ocean. Even with the help of the coastal currents along the south, the warships still had to zigzag tracks to resist the wind. The speed was outrageous - it would take twenty days to hurry up.

At first, Zhao Hao was not in a hurry, but ordered the Security Department to adjust the intelligence work on Chaozhou and Fujian and Guangdong to "most priority". In this way, every time he docked, he would get the latest information about Ryukyu and his father as soon as possible.

Zhao Hao was not worried at that time. Liu Ying had the four elders of Shangshan, and his wings were settled, and even Liu Bang dared not touch him. Zhao Erye also had the four elders of Xu Wei, Pan Jixun, Pan Zhongcheng, Wu Chengen, and the governor. I think as long as you don’t commit suicide, there will be no trouble, right?

He even planned to go to Ryukyu first and question the Zhongshan King Shangyi to raise his troops to question him. At least he had to let the guy ced Naba Port to Jiangnan Group to apologize.

But as soon as the fleet arrived in Wenzhou, he received an urgent report from Zeng Yiben leading the army to invade and Zhao Erye entered Chaozhou to preside over the city defense!

After hearing the news, Zhao Hao stayed for a full quarter of an hour.

He felt the strong malice of God!

Because if he hadn't been disturbed, Zeng Yiben was wiped out by the court in the third year of Longqing, the second year before.

In that history, Zeng Yiben invaded Baietan and bombarded Guangzhou City, which shocked the court and brought shame to Guangdong Province. Therefore, Fujian and Guangdong Province made up their minds and decided to send Guangdong General Yu Dayou and Fujian General Li Xi to form a joint fleet to completely wipe out Zeng Yiben and save the face of the court.

The two provinces knew that the government's naval army was weak and that they were not the opponent of Zeng Yiben, who had strong ships and powerful artillery, so they included the Portuguese who had helped Zeng Yiben out of the estuary of the Pearl River into the foreign army system. They recruited their powerful warships to assist the government in fighting.

After the Portuguese lived in Macau, they were like an unpopular tenant, always worried that they would be swept out by the landlord. Of course, they could not afford to be able to serve the Ming Dynasty and take the opportunity to make good use of Guangdong Province. So they sent all their main forces to assist the official army in fighting.

Finally, under the joint strangulation of Sino-foreign countries, Zeng Yiben was finally defeated and arrested, and soon died. He was beheaded and displayed in public after his death.

So normally, Zeng Yiben's head became a specimen at this time.

But the problem is that due to Zhao Hao's insemination, this period of history has changed. In the third year of Longqing, he launched a punishment war against Japan. He Chezhidan Daming Tang Romeo Omura Juntachi, for fear of being affected by the fish in the pond, begged the Jesuits to ask for help from the southern barbarians to protect his safety.

The Jesuits considered that Juntachi Omura was the only daimyo to convert and wanted to establish a typical example of European-Japanese cooperation, so they agreed to his request and persuaded the Macau fleet that came to trade to stay for a while to support Don Romeo.

Who knew that it attracted Zhao Hao's covetousness. After a sudden "hunting operation", all three Macau ships were captured. It doesn't matter that the old gate ship with duck butt fell. The Duke of Goa and the Oriental Beauty are the second of the three main forces of the Portuguese Macau fleet with limited troops!

Yes, the Macau fleet of the Dangdang Folang Machinery only has three large sailboats, and the remaining one is a galley. There are still many old gate ships that combine Chinese and Western styles, but their armedness is extremely low and lacks enough domestic crew members as backbones and have no combat effectiveness at all.

Therefore, the Folang Ji people rely on these three sailboats to support the scene in the Ming Dynasty. Only when the three sailboats cannot be handled will the Malacca send a fleet to support it.

Sending only such a small amount of troops in Macau is not entirely because they are afraid of causing disagreement between the Ming Dynasty. Because Portugal's own strength is limited, and it cannot maintain a terrifying invincible fleet like Spain, while exerting brains between the Mediterranean and the Ottomans. Portugal's warships have to guard the long maritime traffic lines and confront the alliance between the Great Food and Hinduism in the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean, and their troops are already seriously short of their strength. Being able to force out these three large sailboats and place them in Macau is the result of their great importance to Eastern trade.

~~

Because of Zhao Hao, the main force of the Portuguese fleet was the second one and could not participate in the encirclement and suppression of Zeng Yiben. As a result, Zeng Yiben successfully broke through and continued his career as a pirate for two years.

It just so happened that the court's focus turned to quelling the Wei Yinbao Rebellion, and famous generals such as Yu Dayou were also transferred to Guangxi, which naturally gave Zeng Yiben a breathing space. This sea lord with extremely tenacious vitality gathered a powerful fleet again and made waves.

Zhao Hao didn't care at that time, because he only saw the Portuguese and the Spanish fleet, and he didn't take the sea masters seriously at all.

Mr. Zhao should do this. After years of hard work, he has the best shipyard, arsenal, and naval school in the world at this time. All of this has created a powerful navy together. If you don’t even have confidence in facing pirates, then don’t mess around.

But who would have thought that Zeng Yiben, who had been prolonged because of himself, actually went around and finally met Zhao Hao's father?

Moreover, Master Zhao Er's head became hot and took the initiative to get into the encirclement!

This many coincidental changes forced Zhao Hao to suspicion. Will the person who changed history be punished by history?

But in the 16th minute, Zhao Hao came to his senses. No matter what happened, it was important to save his father first!

So he ordered the fleet to go south at full speed, without stopping in the middle, and rushed to Chaozhou every minute!

Fortunately, the weather was beautiful, the wind was not strong at sea, and there was no typhoon to disturb the situation. In early June, Mr. Zhao's fleet arrived at Dongshan Port in Zhao'an County.

Baolu Tang was waiting there to report the latest situation to Mr. Zhao, and conveyed Mr. Qingteng’s suggestion. Xu Wei was hostage at the bottom of the door, so of course he could not come...

Although Zhao Hao was anxious, he still chose to believe Xu Wei and patiently took over Nan'ao Island first.

Among them, Paul Tang and Penghu Station were to remember their first achievements. In addition to taking on the responsibilities of intelligence and water diversion, they also sold a large amount of spirits to the pirates on Nan'ao Island.

Fearing that they had no money to buy too little drinks, the shopping mall even agreed to Ji San and the others to buy it for credit. In order to make the effect more solid, they also put a small amount of sweating pills in the wine. Is there any way to get drunk?

Therefore, when the task force's ten black-tailed ships, led by the water digger, quietly touched the South Ao Pier under the cover of the night, they could even smell the smell of alcohol floating in the air...

This makes things much easier. Taking advantage of the wind direction, they first released the ten fire-guiding ships tied behind the Wuwei ship.

The fire-driving ship was filled with flammable products such as firewood, vegetable oil, sulfur, etc. From the Battle of Red Cliff to the present, it has been the most lethal water warfare method in the Ming Dynasty and even the whole world.

By the way, the fire-driving boat was also prepared by Penghu Station.

Moreover, the Coast Guard Fleet has a firearm - Oda City Rocket, so there is no need to ignite the fire-driving ship in advance, which will alarm the enemy to prevent it and greatly reduce the effect of the raid.

When the fire-drawing ship hit the pirate warships, the Marines ignited the rocket fuses together. The Oda City rocket, fixed in the launch cylinder, has a more stable flight trajectory and can finally be called aiming for launch, rather than Brownian movement, and the landing point will be as fate.

At least half of the rockets landed on the ship, some suddenly led the fire-driving ship, and some directly ignited the sails of the pirate warship. Three hundred rockets were launched, and the entire dock turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Most of the sailors on the boat were drunk, and many people were burned to death in their drunken dreams. Even those who supported the escape, countless people fell into the water when they fled in a hurry. There were also pirates covered in fire jumping into the sea to put out the fire... The scene was in chaos, and the howling of ghosts and wolves was endless.

~~

The battle went very smoothly and the fleet completed the mission without any damage.

But Zhao Hao's face was not filled with joy, because he finally realized Xu Wei's intention.

Xu Wenchang was worried that he would save his father and lead the fleet to rush into Hanjiang and attack Zeng Yiben's fleet at all costs. That was why he asked himself to attack Nan'ao Island first, called cutting off his retreat.

But once you hit Nan'ao Island, you will surely startle Zeng Yiben in Chaozhou. It would be impossible for him to sneak attack him.

There are only ten small warships on our side, and Zeng Yiben has more than 100 warships with only a thousand materials, almost half of the sea owners in Fujian and Guangdong.

Moreover, the Han River is in a vast waters and its fleet is moving upstream. How can it be the opponent to meet the enemy along the current?

Therefore, no matter how well-trained the Ren coast guards were, no matter how strong the black-tailed the ship, or the artillery on the ship was advanced, they could not change their fate of hitting stones with eggs.

After calling Xu Wei to stir up trouble, Zhao Hao finally calmed down. Since the lonely painter was willing to be hostage to rescue Chaozhou, he could no longer let his efforts down and let hundreds of coast guards who followed him south take risks.

Therefore, after taking over Nan'ao Island, he continued to follow Xu Wei's plan and let the fleet hide in the reed marsh at Hanjiangkou for a long time, quietly waiting for the arrival of Zeng Yiben's fleet.

After waiting anxiously for five days, just when Zhao Hao was about to go crazy, the intelligence officer finally came to report that Chaozhou was siege, Zeng Yiben's fleet was evacuated, and was about to arrive at Hanjiangkou!

After confirming the safety of Zhao Erye, Zhao Hao's heart finally fell down and he was ready to wait for Zeng Yiben to arrive.

He wants to beat up the Zeng man, grandma, I will help you prolong your life, but you dare to hit my father!
Chapter completed!
