However, they knew that the Ming Dynasty was not far away.

Hu Dahai and his men continued to sail forward.

They found some islands, although they were a bit unfamiliar, but they could still see some traces of human activities on them.

For example, some dilapidated houses or dilapidated shipwrecks.

Hu Dahai led his men to inspect several islands.

After some speculation, they felt that they had arrived at the territory of the Japanese people.

Because many of the traces above are similar to the customs and habits of the Japanese people.

Sure enough, after they continued to sail forward for that distance, they encountered several Japanese fishing boats!

These small and dilapidated fishing boats were frightened and fled as soon as they saw Hu Dahai's fleet.

It's just that these small fishing boats can't outrun the sailing warships of the Ming Navy.

After catching some Japanese fishermen, Hu Dahai and the others were 100% sure that they had arrived in the eastern waters of Japan.

To be precise, the place where Hu Dahai and the others came was controlled by the Japanese Kingdom and the Northern Dynasties.

Hu Dahai led the fleet and continued sailing for three days before encountering the Japanese navy from the Northern Dynasties.

Because of the war between the north and the south, the Japanese were very vigilant about border defenses in various places, fearing that the Japanese with the support of the Ming Dynasty would attack and attack from the south.

Therefore, after Hu Dahai and his Ming fleet arrived, almost all the Japanese navy's Northern Navy was dispatched.

The shogunate of the Northern Dynasty of Japan sent General Kameda Taro to take full command of the battle and led more than 300 large warships to intercept the Ming army's warships on the coast.

Regarding the interception of these Japanese pirates, Hu Dahai had no intention of negotiating with them.

No one can stop the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty from returning!

Hu Dahai ordered his soldiers and generals to prepare for battle, and then issued a battle semaphore to the surrounding warships.

"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"

His son Hu Guan lived nearby and asked: "Dad, now the Japanese people are waiting for work. We have been drifting for several months, and we are exhausted. Can we talk to them and stop fighting if we can, so as to save us from increasing unnecessary casualties?"

Hu Dahai seemed very disappointed with his son Hu Guanzhu's words. He said in a scolding tone, "You really haven't made any progress at all! Have you forgotten what kind of treasures are on our ship? If we talk to these Japanese pirates

And, if we take this route again in the future, it will be a shame!"

"The Japanese pirates can be said to be out in force this time. We will use this opportunity to wipe out all of them. From now on, we will be able to travel unimpeded on this route!"

Although the navy of the Ming Dynasty traveled a long distance, everyone seemed very embarrassed and tired.

However, Hu Dahai and the others discovered a large number of gold mines on that mysterious continent. The ship was loaded with several ships full of gold. Such huge wealth also destined that the route from Daming to that new continent would be in the future.

It has become extremely busy, and the Japanese pirates are stuck in the middle of this route. Naturally, this potential threat must be eliminated as soon as possible.

Kameda Taro led the Japanese navy, with more than 200 warships as the main force, and more than 100 small boats cruising around to harass!

The Japanese pirates also wanted to capture all seven warships of the Ming Dynasty navy opposite.

Kameda Taro felt that the Japanese navy had a large number of soldiers, and the Ming navy on the opposite side would definitely send people to sue for peace or even surrender.

However, he never expected that the Ming navy on the opposite side was not afraid at all, but instead formed a strange formation and raised full sails.

The Ming army, which was at a disadvantage, seemed to want to attack itself first.

This made Kameda Taro furious. He gritted his teeth, stared at the Ming army in front with his triangular eyes, and cursed loudly: "Bagaya Road, the Ming Kingdom is so arrogant that they dare to come.

Take the initiative to attack, send a signal immediately, surround them with all the warships, and not let a single Ming army escape!"

In the Japanese pirate Kameda Taro's understanding, the larger the ship, the worse its maneuverability will be. The Ming army's warships are definitely not as flexible as the Japanese small and medium-sized warships.

As long as the Japanese pirates use their numbers and flexibility, they will definitely be able to defeat the Ming army's seven-ship battle!

However, the ensuing battle made all the Japanese pirate navy dumbfounded.

With excellent control and sharp artillery, the Ming army defeated the Japanese navy in less than an hour. More than a hundred Japanese warships turned into pieces of wood and floated on the sea!

After a chase, most of the Japanese navy was wiped out, with only a few fish that escaped the net escaping the battlefield in flexible boats.

Hu Dahai ordered the pursuit to stop, and the few Japanese pirates who escaped were no longer of concern!

Hu Dahai knew clearly that the entire Japanese naval force was wiped out in this battle. From then on, the Ming Navy sailed unimpeded in this sea area... No one would dare to harass them again.

Moreover, even the Japanese pirates who escaped to land would inevitably face the subsequent comprehensive encirclement and suppression by the Ming Dynasty.

Hu Dahai clearly knew that if he wanted to go to that rich and vast continent in the future, he would have to use the Japanese country as a transit point. Therefore, after Hu Dahai returned to the Ming Dynasty and told the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang about the new continent, the Japanese country would not

reason for its continued existence.

Therefore, the elimination of the Japanese navy in this battle will be very beneficial to the Ming Dynasty in the future to eliminate the Japanese.

Hu Dahai's fleet, after annihilating the Japanese navy, continued to sail forward. After arriving at the territory of the Japanese Southern Dynasty, the Ming army stationed there immediately discovered them.

For more than a year, almost all the Ming army had heard about the Blackwater Protectorate fleet disappearing in the storm.

Everyone thought that Hu Dahai and the others had perished in the belly of a fish, but they never expected that Hu Dahai and the others would actually come back alive.

Hu Dahai and others in ragged clothes were resting at the camp of the Japanese Ming Army.

Lan Yu, the general who conquered Japan, immediately sent someone to send the news to Hui Tianfu. After all, Hu Dahai had gained a lot after drifting thousands of miles this time.

The seven large ships contained hundreds of thousands of taels of gold alone!

If it weren't for carrying water and food, Hu Dahai would have been able to carry even more gold!

Moreover, Hu Dahai also told Lan Yu that not only did that continent have a large amount of gold, but the land was fertile and flat, and the grass alone could grow a person as tall as a person!

In addition to these... there are also a large number of fat bison, each of which weighs more than a thousand pounds.

"Brother Lan Yu, you don't know, I eat bison meat every day there, and I vomit every time I eat it!" Hu Dahai said with a satisfied expression on his face.

If Lan Yu had been in the past, she would definitely think that Hu Dahai was bragging.

However, he had seen the warehouse on Hu Dahai's ship, which was full of dried beef, and he was not lying at all.

"Brother Hu, why do you think such a good place is full of uncivilized savages? Don't they have a tyrannical leader?"

Lan Yu looked confused.

According to Lan Yu's impression, even in such a backward place as Japan.

The Japanese people in the Northern Dynasties were quite capable, and they were able to fight back and forth with the Japanese southern army supported by the Ming Dynasty.

"Hey, brother Lan Yu, you don't know, those savages all use sticks and stones as weapons. Even the reincarnation of King Chu Overlord can't defeat us Ming soldiers!"

Nanjing, Yingtianfu.

Lanzhou was attacked by the Oara people, which shocked the entire northwest region. Fortunately, Xu Da stabilized the situation, so that the Oara people did not get any advantage.

However, the Oara people blocked the trade routes to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate in the Western Regions, and also put the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, into a passive situation.

Under the leadership of Li Buhua, the Oara people began to turn from Lanzhou to attack the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.

Xu Da was unable to give a reply to the successive envoys from the Eastern Chagatai Khanate asking for help, so he could only rush to Yingtian to ask for instructions.

"The Eastern Chagatai Khanate was originally Mongolian, and now the Oara people are also Mongolians. They are just dog-eat-dog. Why save them!"

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang obviously intends to sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

However, Zhu Han had different suggestions.

"Brother, the Mongols are not monolithic. These forces have grudges against each other, which we can take advantage of, so we cannot give up the Eastern Chagatai Khanate as a vassal state!" Zhu Han said.

"However, it is a long way from Lanzhou to the Western Regions. If we send troops there, we will not be familiar with the place. I don't know how long it will take to reach the territory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate!" Zhu Yuanzhang said worriedly.

Zhu Han smiled slightly and continued: "Brother, we are going to save the lives of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, but there is no need to send troops ourselves."

"Not sending reinforcements? What should we do?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked confused.

"If the entire Oara army is dispatched, the rear area will inevitably be empty. We asked Xu Da to send troops from Lanzhou to directly attack the Oara people's rear. Are we still afraid that the Oara people will not withdraw their troops?" Zhu Han said confidently.

Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed when he heard this, "Haha, what a great idea. Isn't this just a strategy? Oh, yes, it is to surround Wei and rescue Zhao!"

"Yes, it is to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao. Now that our Ming soldiers are strong after a year of rest, we can let them attack in two directions, all the way from Peiping to attack Yuerhai. I heard that Wang Baobao's main force is there, and the other way

Let’s attack from Lanzhou, attack the territory of the Oara people, and completely knock down the Mongols’ prestige on the grasslands!”

Zhu Han's offensive strategy can be described as very bold.

It is very difficult to find the enemy's main force in the vast grassland.

If it were the Central Plains dynasty in the past, it would have been impossible to find the enemy's main force so easily.

However, under Zhu Han's creation, today's Ming Dynasty has far surpassed the previous dynasties. Not only is its military strength strong, but also the surrounding Jurchen, Goryeo, Wanggu people and other vassal armies can work for the Ming Dynasty. There is no need to let

Ming soldiers took excessive risks.

One of the important reasons is that Ming Dynasty was wealthy enough.

Give these servant armies enough rewards and salaries to make them willing to work hard.

"In the Peking capital, we recruited Jurchens and Koreans to lead the battle. When the Mongols were exposed, we Ming soldiers personally went into battle to destroy the enemy."

"In Lanzhou Xingdu Division, we use the Wanggu tribe. They have been nomadic on the grasslands for generations. They naturally know the behavior and habits of the Oara people very well. They can definitely help Xu Da find the Oara people's home base in the rear!"
