Chapter 250 Eastern Pirates(1/2)
After emergency expansion, Zhouji Pier can barely accommodate five-masted warships, transport ships, supply ships and other ships.
A large amount of materials were transported to the island on the transport ship.
In more than ten days, Zhouji Island took on a new look, with rows of barracks built and various defense measures perfected.
The more than 300 Japanese captives completed their historical mission and were secretly executed by the Xiakou army.
In the Chinese military tent:
Xun You, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan and others gathered together to discuss matters regarding the expedition to the peninsula.
"General Zhao, how is the infantry recovering?"
Xun You said.
"Basically recovered and ready to go to war at any time."
Zhao Yundao.
Xun You opened the map.
"We first conquered Benhan, then Mahan and Chenhan, and captured the three Koreas.
Then go back and regain Lelang County. During this period, Xingba must clear out the areas around the peninsula.
Wipe out the pirates gathered in the waters of the peninsula one by one."
Xun You said.
"I heard from my lord that the indigenous people on the peninsula have no concept of a country. They are just three large tribes, and their weapons are also very backward.
Their combat power is low. However, they will escape, and once they escape into the deep mountains and old forests, there is nothing we can do."
Zhao Yundao.
"That's right! Because of this, we must send out a large number of detective horses in advance to conduct large-scale reconnaissance on Benhan, Mahan, and Chenhan.
Find out clearly the situation and where the indigenous tribes live, and try to get rid of them one by one and prevent them from escaping into the mountains."
Xun You said.
"I will send people to conduct reconnaissance immediately. We need the Xingba warship to send soldiers to the peninsula."
Zhao Yundao.
"This is no problem."
Gan Ning said.
The next day, the navy was dispatched, first sending Xia Houlan and dozens of infantrymen to the peninsula, and then began to clear the surrounding sea areas.
On Zhouji Island, Xun You and Zhao Yun were left temporarily stationed.
"Report to General Gan that a fleet of ships has been spotted ahead. They are densely packed. I don't know how many ships there are?"
Send orders to soldiers.
"Go forward and wait until the battle begins before speeding up."
Gan Ning said.
"As you command!"
Send orders to soldiers.
Ride the wind and waves!
Ten five-masted warships rushed towards the opposite fleet.
"Report to General Gan. The enemy's fleet is flying a skull battle flag. It is judged to be a pirate fleet. Please give me your instructions."
Send orders to soldiers.
"Crash into it!"
Gan Ning said.
Swish, brush, brush!
The five-masted warship accelerated and soon reached the pirate ship.
"attack!"
Gan Ning said.
The five-masted warship slapped the taro and hit the opponent's ship hard.
Boom!
A small wooden boat was hit and suddenly broke into pieces and floated on the sea. The water bandits on the boat fell into the sea and struggled.
Gan Ning's fighting method was a bit crude. He directly hit him and carried out the attack in an unreasonable way. If Qin Qi saw it.
He will definitely be scolded.
What a great opportunity for military training, but instead of fighting a pirate ship, we resorted to brutal methods, which is speechless.
The other five-masted warships, seeing the brutal fighting style of Gan Ning's command ship, imitated the same and rammed into the pirate ship.
Use the advantage of tonnage to crush the opponent.
Dimensionality reduction and suppression!
The pirate ships were all small ships of dozens of tons. How could they fight against Gan Ning's ten warships of over a thousand tons?
A one-sided impact.
There is no technical content at all, it is purely barbaric behavior.
The first wave of attacks from Paitao was followed by a collision. Even though Paitao had no effect, the other party's boats were small and could not withstand the impact, so they sank to the bottom of the sea one after another.
The pirate ship saw that it could not defeat the warship on the opposite side, so it turned around and fled away.
How could he be allowed to escape?
The three hundred sailors in the warship used all their strength, and in an instant the five-masted warship caught up with them like flying, and sank them one by one.
An hour later, the battle was over.
Dozens of pirate ships were sunk, and no one escaped alive.
"Rescuing the pirates who fell into the sea."
Gan Ning said.
Division Xiakou is a benevolent and civilized division. How could he not be engaged in saving lives and healing the wounded?
One pirate was rescued.
The battle only took one hour, but it took three hours to save the pirates who fell into the water.
Despite this, only one-fifth of the pirates who fell into the water were rescued, and the rest died.
trial!
One pirate after another was pulled into the cabin.
"What's your name? Why do you want to be a pirate? How many merchant ships have you robbed? Where is your old job?"
the interrogator said.
…
Gan Ning sat in the cabin waiting for the outcome of the trial.
"Report to General Gan, the results of the interrogation are out."
Send orders to soldiers.
"explain!"
Gan Ning said.
"General, this group of water bandits is one of the two largest groups of water bandits entrenched in this area, called the East Pirates.
Lao Cao is on a small island a hundred miles ahead. The boss has been killed in the naval battle just now. However,
There is also a second boss and a third boss in Laotao. Over the years, they have been robbing and killing passing merchants.
This group of pirates was very bad. They not only robbed merchants of their money, but also killed all the people in the caravan. They committed a heinous crime.
There are more than 1,000 water bandits in the Eastern Pirates. They just wiped out nearly 600 people. There are still more than 400 water bandits in the old tank.
In addition, I also received news that another group of water bandits, in another direction, also had thousands of water bandits under their command.
This group of water bandits is called Qing Bandits. They only steal money and don't kill people, so they are somewhat moral."
Send orders to soldiers.
Gan Ning walked to the map and looked at it.
"Place the captured water bandits on a warship and send them back to Zhouji Island to be imprisoned. The other ships will go up to the East China Sea Bandit Lao Cao to kill them."
Gan Ning said.
