Zheng He held on to the bow of the ship tightly and used a heavy weight under his feet to stabilize his body. As soon as he stabilized his body, he ordered the many soldiers who hurriedly climbed up: "Go ashore and fight!"
Many officers who were boarding an ocean-going ship for the first time lay there vomiting, surrounded by big feet running around.【】
A hole opened in the belly of the ship, and a huge flat side board slammed down on the pier, slamming down some of the stunned "welcoming people" who had no time to escape. Then countless war horses suddenly surged out from the belly of the ship, and the knights of the horses were holding broadswords and spears.
, wearing leather armor, leaping on horseback and holding spears, rushed from the ship to the coast.
This island has never seen such creatures as donkeys, horses, and mules before. The locals have never seen it. Although most of Chen Zuyi's pirates have seen it, they never expected that the ship actually has cavalry. The original combat strategy is completely
No need, for a while, the Ming army cavalry who washed up on the shore were killing melons and vegetables like they were chopping melons and vegetables.
The local natives who were recruited by Chen Zuyi and armed with crude weapons, saw such a strange man riding on such a monster, and how fierce it was. They immediately dispersed and spread their legs to run for their lives...
The hand-to-hand battle still took place. Xia Xun's warship was on the left side of the entire fleet. Since the ship was a Shuangyuwei warship, its quality was inferior to the giant ship Zheng He brought out from Longjiang Shipyard, so he did not dare to use it.
Collision tactics, so the moment they got close to the enemy ship, they threw flying hooks, followed by scratching hooks, and began to board the enemy ship.
The officers and soldiers of the ship were all pirates and were used to hand-to-hand combat, so fighting in gangs was just what they wanted. As soon as they charged at the enemy ship, they yelled and screamed, venting their wild murderousness wantonly, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
!" Shouting like a wave of killing, the sailors kept jumping onto the enemy ship, unstoppably destroying the enemy's lives with cold swords and axes on the deck of the enemy ship.
It was rare that the Ming army was willing to fight them head-on, and the pirates finally found an outlet. Another pirate ship filled with shells approached crookedly. The surviving pirates shouted and rushed towards the ship, and the remaining officers and soldiers on the ship rushed to greet them.
Xu Hu and other generals also drew their swords to greet him.
Su Ying's eyes grew hot, she turned to Xia Xun and begged: "Master..."
Xia Xun knew what she meant. Su Ying was full of wild elements from the very beginning. She was never meant to be a wealthy and happy wife. Xia Xun was happy to see the heroic appearance of the three thieves in Shuangyu Group in the past, so he smiled slightly and said,
"Let's go!" he said, pulling out the long knife with a choking sound.
Although he allowed Su Ying to participate in the battle and knew that she had outstanding martial arts skills, Xia Xun still wanted her to stay by his side and take care of her before he could rest assured.
Xia Xun held a knife and rushed to the gangway with Su Ying. He turned around and glared at Tang Sai'er who followed him excitedly, and shouted: "Stay there."
Tang Sai'er didn't know where she found a sword. The people of Shandong are very martial arts, and her father's generation was a member of the White Lotus sect, so Tang Sai'er also learned martial arts since she was a child, but she never had the chance to display it.
I can't help but feel a little eager to try it.
Xia Xun hurriedly scolded: "Face me, if you don't obey, I'll beat your ass!"
Xia Xun and Su Ying jumped down the gangway and joined the battle group. Tang Saier, who was standing with his mouth pouting, heard this "punishment measure" and his eyes suddenly shone.
The ground was covered with sticky blood, the steel knife and ax kept making tearing sounds, the bloody light flashed everywhere, and the blood flow on the deck continued to gather and grow stronger.
Xia Xun and his wife fought side by side, and there were always enemies or soldiers around them. They let out a dying roar and then fell down.
The smell of blood was strong. A pirate soldier was half lying on the side of the ship. When he was jumping gangs, half of his head was cut off by a Ming army with an axe.
As he stared, his eyes that had not completely lost their divine light reflected scenes of battles.
The husband and wife fought side by side. Xia Xun slashed a pirate across his shoulder and into two halves with a knife, and then kicked the pirate who was attacking Su Ying to the ground. Su Ying took the first step and cut off the head.
Xia Xun glanced up, looking for the endangered warrior. Suddenly he saw Tang Saier holding up a dagger, raising his left hand, and a puff of unknown yellow smoke flew up. Opposite him, a fierce pirate coughed profusely, with runny nose and tears.
The blood flowed down, he howled and abandoned the knife, grabbed his face, and then received a sword in the heart. Immediately afterwards, Tang Saier turned nimbly, ducked around a winch wrapped with cables, and stretched out his hand.
Pulling the rope, he tripped a chasing pirate.
At this time, Fei Yinglun was carrying a big axe, and rushed towards him without hesitation. The big ax split the man's head in half, and the brains and blood spurted out on his face. Fei Yinglun wiped it at will.
With a fierce look on his face, he faced another pirate without fear. Before he raised his ax, a beast-like roar first frightened the pirate.
Xia Xun's eyes suddenly flashed with a strange color.
He was not wrong, this man was indeed no ordinary wandering businessman.
A businessman cannot kill someone so decisively and skillfully, let alone show such a violent expression when seeing blood.
Yes, Fei Yinglun is a pirate.
In order to avoid exposing his identity, he could have found a corner and huddled up, but he couldn't do that. The habits he had developed over the years made him unable to adapt to this kind of thinking, even when sending people to a ship.
When encountering an enemy, you must never turn around and run away. This is a creed he has known since he was a child, and it has been deeply rooted in his bones.
It's okay to run away. In their west, if you turn around and run away before the commander gives the order, and you jump into the sea to avoid fighting, the opponent will never pursue you. Pursuing a harmless deserter is a disgraceful act and will not increase the opponent's ability at all.
It's an honor, but it's a shame. But once you escape, you will be abandoned by all your companions. Even your family will ignore your existence from now on.
There will be no difference between life and death for a deserter. Wherever he goes, he will only receive ridicule and contempt. Therefore, his years of pirate career have made him develop a combat instinct: when he sees the enemy, he immediately rushes to him!
Fei Yinglun was originally the captain of a pirate team. Because he refused to be recruited by a powerful pirate, he ran to the far east to make a living.
Fei Yinglun's pirate team was relatively small. He originally thought that he would be able to live in the East like a fish in water. But when he arrived here, he realized that the pirates in the East were far more powerful than the pirates there. When he came to the far East, he had no foundation, so he had to choose the same pirates.
The most powerful pirate cooperation, this Eastern pirate is naturally Chen Zuyi.
When I came into contact with Chen Zuyi, the different cultural concepts of the East and the West caused a great collision between the concepts of Eastern and Western pirates.
On a Western pirate ship, the captain does not have the dictatorial power of life and death. He only has absolute command power during battles. All other matters are subject to a public vote by all his friends. For example, if he wants to try his luck in the East, all pirates vote. He
It was impossible for him to act arbitrarily. After seeing Chen Zuyi's emperor-like majesty, he envied Chen Zuyi's lack of power.
In his place, even the food is uniformly rationed, and the looted property must be divided equally per head. The captain can only get an extra share. But Chen Zuyi leaked a small reward to his subordinates, and his subordinates all burst into tears of gratitude.
Okay, such a difference is incomparable. However, some of the behaviors of the Eastern pirates also made him very uncomfortable.
For example, Western pirates never fly a pirate flag. Do they fly a pirate flag so that merchant ships can see it early, run away, and then try hard to catch up? Stupid! But Eastern pirates also seem to pay attention to their reputation, and they hang a very impressive flag as soon as they go to sea.
The pirate flag, Fei Yinglun was not used to this.
On the other hand, Western pirates are not allowed to gamble, steal, fight, or rape women on board the ship. Violators are punished by death. The crew members are restrained like soldiers. However, Chen Zuyi's pirate group is unruly and gradually turns his
The crew has also been misled, and he cannot have absolute control. Now it is more difficult to manage the crew, which gives him a headache.
It happened that at this time, Chen Zuyi came up with his idea again. At that time, Chen Zuyi was ready to defect to Bolin State, and there was no need to rely on the small pirate groups attached to him. He thought that Fei Yinglun would plunder all the way from the far west and must have accumulated a lot of money.
He had made a lot of money and wanted to make some money while killing the donkey, so he took action against Fei Yinglun.
It's a pity that Western pirates don't have the good habit of saving like Easterners do. They don't know how to accumulate any treasure and hide it in some "treasure island". Pirates live a precarious life of escape. As long as they have some money in their hands, they can save money.
Drinking too much, wishing to spend it all on the same day, hoarding treasures to save money? How could they do such stupid things?
As a result, although Chen Zuyi was disappointed, Fei Yinglun also lost his ship and crew. With the rest of his life, he did not dare to expect the opportunity to revenge against a powerful pirate king like Chen Zuyi. He just wanted to return to his hometown.
It's hard to live alone as a stranger in a foreign land.
Precisely because he had suffered a lot and knew what Chen Zuyi was like, he was worried that Chen Zuyi was deceitful. But he was also worried that his identity would be exposed and the officers and soldiers of the Eastern Empire would hang him. Now he saw that the two sides had not met each other.
A big fight would greatly reduce the chance of his identity being revealed. Why wouldn't he take the opportunity to vent his anger?
The ax was waving in Fei Yinglun's hand, harvesting life wantonly. Fei Yinglun was so unhappy that he laughed crazily...
When Chen Zuyi sent a police sentry outside the harbor, using the identity of a fishing boat as a cover, when the Ming fleet sailed into the harbor, he hurried to notify the ten warships remaining in the open sea waiting to block the exit. These warships hurriedly arrived
At that time, they only saw many broken pieces of wood floating on the sea surface, as well as many floating corpses. There were also several unburned broken ships in the harbor, still standing and burning on the sea surface.
Deep in the harbor, countless ships were moored quietly, all flying the flag of the Ming Dynasty. There were no scenes of swords and swords on the shore. Some people seemed to be carrying corpses in the distance...
In a short time, the dust settled. Chen Zuyi, who tried to rob the Ming Dynasty fleet, did not even wait for the ambush he arranged outside to arrive. The ice collapsed and he was routed thousands of miles away.
The leading pirate leader gasped and hurriedly ordered: "Dulm, go to Nangang to find Shi Jinqing, and we can escape together!"
