After destroying the Japanese pirate strongholds on Dachen Island, Lu Li continued to clear them out.

According to the information obtained from interrogating Japanese prisoners, Lu Li swept over one by one and cleaned up all the Japanese pirates overseas in Zhejiang Province.

After cleaning this time, Lu Li captured more than 10,000 Japanese pirates, seized more than 300 various sea ships, and rescued more than 1,000 people who fell into the hands of Japanese pirates, most of whom were women.

In addition, Lu Li also seized various gold, silver and jewelry, silk, satin, raw silk and porcelain worth millions of taels of silver.

Of course, Lu Li was too lazy to calculate the capture of weapons and armor, and it was piled up directly in the transport ship.

After this battle, the Japanese pirates on the coast of Zhejiang Province were completely wiped out, and no one could see any Japanese pirates.

When Lu Li swept through the islands outside Zhejiang Province and cleared out the Japanese pirates, the five thousand Jinshan Guards led by Sun Ding also arrived in Fujian Province. They cooperated with Yu Dayou to sweep away the Japanese pirates who dared to invade.

The Japanese pirate Xu Hai's troops, a team of 15,000 people, were directly blown up by the five thousand breastplate cavalry of Jinshan Guard when they attacked Quanzhou Prefecture.

The five thousand-breasted cavalry of Jinshan Guard wore a wide-eaves octagonal helmet made of stainless steel, a steel breastplate, equipped with a rifle, a revolver, and a steel Tang sword.

During the charge, they first fired a volley with a rifle, and then fired a volley with a revolver. At this time, the enemy had almost collapsed, and then they stepped onto the joint camp, swung the Tang sword made of fine steel, and cut the Japanese pirates to cry and cry.

This time, the Japanese pirates had no time to run back to the sea, and were all chopped to death by the Jinshan Guards on their way to escape.

After this battle, the Japanese pirates in Fujian Province became much more honest.

The Japanese pirates who plundered the coast of Fujian Province all retreated to the sea, and the Japanese trespasses everywhere in Fujian Province have basically subsided.

In Fujian Province, the risk of robbery is too high, so it’s better to change the place!

So... the bandits were even more severe in the coastal areas of Qiongzhou and Guangdong and Guangxi.

Facts have proved that not destroying the Japanese pirates' maritime foundation and simply eliminating the Japanese pirates from land is just a delusion.

Time is coming to July.

The fleet under Lu Li has grown stronger again!

The second batch of destroyers built under the leadership of Zheng Yuan has been completed.

The second batch of destroyers had a total of twenty, plus the original three destroyers. Lu Li already had twenty-three destroyers and more than one hundred sail transport ships seized from the Japanese pirates.

This is already an invincible fleet!

Three destroyers were left to the Songjiang Navy for training naval recruits and maintaining maritime security near Songjiang. Lu Li led twenty destroyers and one hundred sailing transport ships to set sail again to sweep away Japanese pirates.

This time, Lu Li's movements were quite big.

After going out to sea, Lu Li led the fleet south to enter the sea outside Fujian Province, and directly drove the fleet into Keelung, Wandao.

During this period, the Keelung Port of Bay Island was a place of chaos. There were both Ming marches docking here, Japanese pirates, and grape duck men.

When Lu Li's huge fleet arrived at Keelung Port, the Japanese pirates and grape duck men in the port were suddenly in chaos.

The Japanese pirates exclaimed, "The Black Army is coming", turned around and ran away, fleeing in a panic.

The Grape Duck men were all looking disgusted and had no idea what this huge fleet was trying to do here.

Of course, I dare not resist.

After the destroyer shattered several armed merchant ships blocked the dock, no one dared to resist.

The transport ship docked and the Marines landed.

Five thousand black-clad soldiers lined up in neat rows and stepped onto the dock with neat steps.

The Keelung Port at this moment is so simple.

There were only some simple wooden houses and no decent buildings at all, but... there were still many people, including at least one or two thousand men and women.

"Catch all the people here."

Lu Li waved his hand and ordered the soldiers under his command to arrest everyone in Keelung's port.

Don’t worry about catching the wrong person. During this period, those who appeared in Keelung Port were either Japanese pirates or pirates, uh... Grape Duck pirates were also pirates.

"Your Excellency, you cannot do this!"

A red-haired and green-eyed grape duck man gestured and protested with Lu Li in broken Chinese.

"Why can't it?"

Lu Li raised his eyebrows, "This is the land of the Ming Dynasty. You have no right to reside, and it is an illegal invasion. My official Hou of Huating, General of Cavalry, and Governor of Nanzhili should arrest the bandits who invaded the territory of the Ming Dynasty according to law."

"No! No! This is not the Ming Dynasty! This is not the land of the Ming Dynasty!"

The grape duck man quickly argued.

"Rareless! Since ancient times, Bay Island has been my territory of the Ming Dynasty!"

Lu Li angrily rebuked and stared at the Portuguese with cold eyes, "The land shining by the sun and the moon is all the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Do you have any objections?"

The black-clothed sergeant beside him raised his rifle with a silence.

"No objection! No objection!"

The grape duck man shivered and didn't dare to say a word.

"You have illegally invaded the territory of the Ming Dynasty and are unforgivable! I am merciful and open my face to avoid your death."

Lu Li glanced at these messy Japanese pirates and said, "Punish you as laborers and build Keelung Port for me. This is called labor reform. Make good transformation and strive to be a new person as soon as possible!"

Then, the transport ship docked, and the two thousand laborers he had just caught began to unload goods from the transport ship.

Various building materials and materials were unloaded one after another. Lu Li was preparing to build a base in Keelung Port, and then radiate to the surrounding areas with Keelung Port as the center, while clearing out Japanese pirates and preparing to control the sea front in the future.

Countless supplies were unloaded at Keelung Port Terminal, and all kinds of supplies were piled up. However, two thousand laborers were still not enough.

Lu Li sent his fleet out and began to sweep away the islands outside Fujian Province, clear out Japanese pirates, and capture prisoners.

In addition, Lu Li also sent a transport ship to Taizhou Prefecture, bringing all more than 10,000 Japanese prisoners who were housed in Qi Jiguang and acting as construction workers.

When these workers arrived, Lu Li began to organize large-scale production and construction.

First, look for coal mines, then burn bricks, cement, and build docks, forts, roads and port buildings.

The mineral resources in Bay Province are not abundant, but there are still coal mines. Lu Li had already remembered these materials when he was studying geography.

The coal mine was found and Japanese pirates were sent to dig coal. This not only solved the problem of burning bricks and cement, but also solved the fuel problem of destroyers.

As for whether the Japanese pirates who dig coal are hard or dangerous, or not... Then hehe!

While Lu Li was busy building the Wandao base, the fleet also swept across the islands on the sea of ​​Fujian Province and cleared out the Japanese pirates' nests.

All the Japanese pirates captured were thrown into Keelung for construction. As the cleaning progress became increasingly large, more and more Japanese pirates were captured and captured.

A month later, all the islands outside the coast of Fujian Province were swept away, and more than 30,000 Japanese pirates were captured.

Fortunately, the materials seized from the Japanese pirates' nest are quite abundant, otherwise Lu Li would have to transport food to avoid starving these Japanese pirates to death.

At this time, nearly 50,000 people had been thrown in by Lu Li.

In order to maintain public order, Lu Li stationed all 5,000 Marines in Keelung, and transferred 5,000 soldiers to join the Japanese pirates' clearance work.

Under Lu Li's powerful attack, the Japanese pirates were simply irresistible.

The seas outside Zhejiang Province have been swept away, and the seas outside Fujian Province have been swept away. Lu Li is still stationing a large army on Wandao. He dares not go to the direction of the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea. Whoever goes to die!

In this case, the Japanese pirates could only flee to the South China Sea.

Guangdong, Guangxi and Qiongzhou did not dare to stay. After Lu Li cleared the East China Sea, the frighteningly powerful fleet had already headed towards the coast of Guangdong, Guangxi.

Then run away!

As long as there is a boat, where can't you go? Since there was a guy named Huating Hou in the Ming Dynasty who could not be provoked, why did you still fight to the death here?

You can live a very comfortable life when you go to Luzon, Java, Malacca, or even India!

So, Xu Hai, Wang Zhi and Xin Wulang, three Japanese pirates gathered countless small Japanese pirates, and they all formed a alliance with blood, gathered into a huge wolf fleet, and fled to the south.

Along the way, Japanese pirates swept across the South Ocean, snatched Annan, snatched Champa, Luzon, Java, Jinzhou (Sumatra), Siam, and Malacca...

After receiving this information, Lu Li was stunned for a moment and almost burst into laughter.

Yes! You are very capable!

If you don’t go to harm Nanyang, my army will be the Great Ming Dynasty. How can we quell the bandits for the vassal states?

You are leading the way in front, and I am chasing you from behind to see if you can fight all the way to the Mediterranean!

By the way, do you want a gun? Although it is not a Jiajing Type 40 rifle, I can sell it to you flintlock rifle! You can also get the guns installed in front!

Lu Li smiled all over his face.

Since all the Japanese pirates went to Nanyang to harm others, Lu Li's plan for Jinghai is almost the same.

Next, Lu Li continued to leave the base.

Qiongzhou Island in the south must have a base. The Ryukyu Island north of the Bay Island, the Great Ming Tian soldiers will protect the Ryukyu state from attacks by Japanese pirates. This is the great grace of the emperor!

In addition, the Japanese pirates have been harassing the Ming Dynasty for many years. Will Japan not give an explanation? In order to avoid the recurrence of Japanese pirates, it is normal to open a naval base in Japan to clear out Japanese pirates!

Of course, Jeju Island also needs to establish a base to protect the Ming Dynasty’s vassal states. This is the obligation of the sect leader!

As for the Hokkaido Hokkaido, the Hokkaido fought with the Japanese for many years. The Ming Dynasty could not bear to suffer the consequences and came to mediate. It is also necessary to station a peacekeeping force!

It is easier to operate in the Nanyang area, and there is no need to make any excuses. Just use the port as a garrison base in the name of pursuing Japanese pirates.
