General Pi Shen led all the main forces of the Penglai Navy to Changdao before dusk, hid in Moon Bay, and waited for the fleet of unknown origin to come to the door.

On Long Island, there is a fortress built to the east. If you want to fight tomorrow, you can feel at ease when you are on your back with the fortress.

After a difficult night passed, the Clippers sent to spy on military affairs finally returned.

Under the nervous gaze of General Pi Shen and others, the scout reported: "The fleet was flying the sun and moon flag, and it should be a group of Ming civilian ships."

Ships had difficulty communicating at sea, so they showed their identities by hanging different flags. The civilian ships of the Ming Dynasty liked to hang the sun and moon flags, and the navy of the garrison had their own military flags. For example, the majestic Kunpeng flag hung in Denglaishui City.

After repeatedly asking about the fact that no other flags were hung, General Pi Shen and others breathed a sigh of relief. It would be better if it was the Ming Dynasty fleet, and he would not dare to offend the official army no matter how arrogant he was.

"Brother, do we want it..." Seeing the tiger turning into a fat sheep, guerrillas couldn't help but become greedy. The other generals also looked at General Pi Shen with hope, obviously used to doing this business.

No wonder, after all, the Ming Dynasty had not lifted the sea ban, and it was a key to protecting the capital. Even if you sank all your fleet, you had no place to deal with it. The so-called possession of sharp weapons and murderous intentions arise, these water camp officers had a lot of blood debts than pirates.

"Well..." General Pi Shen pondered.

The scout just now confirmed again that the other party did have 50 sand patrol ships with four hundred materials, and the water was very deep, and it was obviously full of loads. If you detain a few ships, the brothers could eat a lot of oil.

However, with such a large fleet, how dare you start rashly? He recalled carefully the owner of the large ship in the southeastern area of ​​Shandong. After thinking about it, it seemed that only the Sand Boat Gang at the estuary of the Yangtze River could form such a large formation.

"Sand Boat Gang, didn't they catch food in the Yangtze River? They ran to our Shandong to do something." General Pi Shen was puzzled.

"Whatever he is here, this is a cross-border situation, and he must pay the price!" his subordinates shouted.

"That's right, I've reached wherever my hand is. I won't chop it up for him. I thought there was no one in Shandong!"

Unable to resist his subordinates' instigation, General Pi Shen finally made up his mind to stop the fleet. He was fine and unconventional, and he first detained the ship as usual and waited for the other shipowner to come and redeem it.

"Go out of the bay and line up on the waterway, and no one is allowed to be let go!" General Pi Shen made up his mind and ordered with a bold and bold order.

"Aoao!" The sailors on this boat exclaimed excitedly howls when they heard his life. Although they were full of resistance in the war, they were not tired of robbery.

~~

When the mist in the morning dissipated, the Penglai Navy's fleet finished lined up on the Changshan River Road, and soon saw the huge fleet coming from the east.

General Pi Gan stood on the top deck, took a bamboo tube dug through both ends, and looked around. He could already see the masts on the ship, and the ordinary sun and moon flags were indeed hung on the head, without any other flags.

The ocean currents in this area are eastward, and the sand ships opposite are full of loads. Although they are full of sails, they still seem slow and heavy.

General Pi Shen has rich experience and has long chosen the most favorable position to arrange the array. Not only is he supported by the turret on the shore, but once the opponent wants to escape, he can also immediately hang sails and chase down the current, and he can catch up in a blink of an eye.

Everything is at your control!

General Pi Shen was completely relieved and ordered the gunner to load the bullets and prepare to fire a volley to deter the unmanned fleet.

Gradually, the fleet was getting closer and closer, five miles, four miles, three miles... still had no intention of stopping.

"Fire the gun!" General Pi Gan ordered a lesson to teach these ignorant little red guys a lesson.

The gunners used pine torches to ignite the leads, and the cannons were sparking.

Suddenly, the guerrilla beside him pushed General Pi Shen and screamed in a deep voice: "You can't fire the cannon, there is a dragon flag!"

"Ah?!" General Pi Shen followed his subordinates' fingers and saw that four blue-bottomed golden dragon flags were hung on the largest fleet in the opposite fleet, as well as Qingdao flags and descending banners!

The big ship was blocked by a ship that opened its way forward, and it was not clear that it was marked when it was close.

General Pi Shen and others immediately all the dead souls emerged.

There are many vassal kings in Shandong, and the nearby Qingzhou is the fief of King Heng. Otherwise, they would not know each other, and this is a banner that can only be erected when the prince goes on a patrol. Of course, the flag is actually not a dragon, but a dragon, which is not something they can tell.

"Stop, stop, don't fire!" General Pi Shen screamed in shock, wishing to pounce on him and block the muzzle.

But it was too late, and more than a dozen cannons made dull roars one after another.

More than a dozen shells flew out roaring and landed on the water four or five hundred meters away, causing a string of water splashes.

Fortunately, the range is limited, so it is still far from the fleet.

"What should I do with my brother?" All the subordinates were panicked. Although the vassal kings were not allowed to leave their fiefdoms without authorization, they could not fire at the vassal kings.

"Calm down, we are loyal to our duties, and we will not die if we open the air cannon." General Pi Shen calmed down himself. He no longer cared about robbery, and he was full of thoughts about getting out of here.

Jiangnan shipping fleet.

Wang Rulong's three warships had already lined up in front of the fleet. The other two were behind the hall to prevent them from being made of dumplings.

Looking at the water pillar more than two miles away, Wang Rulong put down the telescope hanging around his neck, wiped his red beard contemptuously and said, "It's embarrassing!"

Don't look like he is indifferent, he is actually acting for the people below to watch.

Wang Rulong knew in his heart that although the dozen or so cannons had a short range, they were enough to suppress their own side and caused huge casualties. This was the case at sea. It had passed the era of fighting with manpower, and now they were stronger than ships and cannons.

"Captain, do you want to fight back?" the squadron leader asked in a deep voice.

"Grandma, when will we fight back?" Wang Rulong spat fiercely and said, "Take a few shots and let them hear the sound."

In fact, only three snake cannons can be used here. The effective range of the Flang machine is only more than 100 meters, which is not embarrassing enough.

But you can't lose your momentum at any time. Let's fight a few shots first and then talk about it.

The gunners had already loaded up, and immediately used a long fuse to ignite the lead of the snake cannon.

The so-called snake cannon is currently the mainstream long-barrel cannon in Europe. This cannon has a long range and can aim directly to shoot, greatly improving the shooting accuracy and playing the leading role in the navy and army of European countries.

However, the distance is more than one kilometer, so you still need to give a little elevation angle and increase the range.

Anyway, no one expects to hit. If you are intimidating shooting, of course the farther you hit, the better.

The bronze snake cannon carefully crafted by the Sanmen Bujialao Casting Factory spewed out a long tongue of flames and roared out three solid shells!

The two sides were more than one kilometer apart at this time and were already within the range of the snake cannon, but the chance of hitting was minimal, so the security team did not have much hope, and the government troops on the opposite side did not care.

Unexpectedly, as two shells passed over the heads of the official army fleet, the third shell hit and hit...

And it happened to hit General Pi Shen's ship.

He stared blankly at the big hole on the deck, so scared that he couldn't close his legs. What cannon has such great power? Could it be the legendary Red Barbarian Cannon? It's so terrible!

Fortunately, the ships in the Ming Dynasty all had watertight cabins, and even if a shell was shot in, there was no risk of a shipwreck.

But this shell completely knocked out the courage of the official army. Seeing that the idea on the opposite side was hard and arrogant, it would not be possible to get good results if you continue to tangle.

It’s better to have thirty-six strategies.

"Retreat!" General Pi Shen calmly ordered: "The sky fell, and Lord Bingxian was holding it."

"Brother, at least we have to find out the other party's identity, otherwise how can we report back and how can we inform Tianjin Wei?" A Qian general reminded.

"What I mean is, then you can take a boat to stay and ask about the situation." General Pi Shen tidied up Qian Zheng's robe and said kindly: "You are the officers who lead the team today, and we have never left the sea. Do you think it's okay?"

"Oh, good..." Mr. Qian had the heart to jump into the sea, but he blamed himself for talking too much and became the blame.

Jiangnan shipping fleet.

Seeing the official army's fleet withdraw, Wang Rulong also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the shot would make the other party angry.

Fortunately, the opponent was not so angry. That's it. If the government army hadn't been used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong, how could it have let the little Japanese pirates ride on their necks and get fucked?

After the state of combat was announced, the sailors extinguished the lit pine oil torches, cleared the cannon chamber, and repacked the shells... The Flang machine is very simple, just take out the sub-gun. The trouble is that the snake cannons and muskets cannot be removed after loading, so they can only be destroyed.

However, this time the security team learned their lesson and set off empty guns and cannons into the open space of the sea. With a dense sound of gunfire, a gunner was taken to Wang Rulong by the squadron leader.

"Captain, this guy killed the cannon just now." The squadron leader said with a strange look on his face.

"What's your name?" Wang Rulong glanced at the gunner, dark and thin... Well, this is the most common appearance in this era. He looked dai, not like a spiritual guy.

"Go back to the captain, my name is Chu Liu." The young man spoke in Shandong dialect. "The gunner of the artillery team directly under the coastal security team!"

Zhao Hao's security team had three major soldiers, one was the former Qi family army who defected to him and the Zhejiang soldiers they brought; the second was the rural brave men recruited from Kunshan; and the third was the northern refugees supported by the Xishan Company, mainly from Henan and Shandong. When Chu Liuyi opened his mouth, he could tell that he was the third category.

"Outlet? Where are you planning to go?" Wang Rulong couldn't help laughing and said, "This name is not good on the boat. If you don't get it, you will go out and go into the water. I'll change your name."

"Oh, okay." The name Chu Liu is not a serious name. The captain is of course eager to give it a new one.

"What's the name..." Wang Rulong stroked his red beard and said, "You're going to fire this shot! Just call you Chu Liuxiang."

"Oh, Captain Xie gave his name, I will call Chu Liuxiang from now on." Chu Liu nodded happily.

"Chu Liuxiang, how do you think I should punish you?" I have to admit that the infectiousness of Northern dialect is strong, and Wang Rulong's accent was taken by the other party.

"What, I have to punish me?" Chu Liuxiang was stunned. "Is there any crime if I am punished correctly?"

"That's the official army's ship. If you do something, who will do it if you kill someone?" Wang Rulong slapped him in the back of the head.
