Chapter 91 Naval Battle (1)

Yan Siqi said: "Let's forget it. You are injured, so don't show off. I will take you swimming."

Mou Rongtian said: "If you swim slowly like this, my injury is not affected and I can swim by myself." After saying this, he broke away from Yan Siqi and swam forward, swimming faster and faster.

As he swam, Mou Rongtian thought of Shi Yi and thought: "The swallow is not good at water, where has he gone?" He asked Yan Siqi: "Where is the swallow?"

Yan Siqi said: "I was only here to save you, but I didn't see you. What's the matter? Brother Yanzi doesn't know how to swim?"

Mou Rong added: "He is not good at water." He looked back and saw sailors approaching one after another, and asked: "Have you seen Shi Baihu?"

The sailors shook their heads.

Mou Rongtian said to Yan Siqi: "I don't worry about Yanzi, I have to go back to find him."

Yan Siqi said: "I will accompany you back."

Mou Rongtian said: "It's too dangerous, you should leave first."

Yan Siqi said: "I'm not worried if you go back alone. Stop talking, let's go back together to find you."

Mou Rongtian said: "Okay then."

The two people swam back and met Cheng Da head-on. Mou Rongtian said: "Old Cheng, have you seen the swallow?"

Cheng Da sighed and said, "Brother Yanzi was captured by the Japanese pirates."

When Shi Yi was captured just now, Cheng Da hadn't swam far yet. He watched helplessly as Shi Yi was being taken onto the boat, but he didn't dare to rescue him.

"What! Yanzi has been captured. Oh, if there is something wrong with him, how can I explain it to my uncles and brothers in Wudang? No, I have to save him." After Mou Rongtian said that, he swam back with all his strength.

Yan Siqi hugged him from behind and shouted: "Brother Mou, you can't come back. You can't throw yourself into a trap and seek death."

Mou Rongtian shouted: "The life or death of the swallow is uncertain. Can I not go back? If I don't go back to save him, will I still call for help? Please let go and let me go."

Yan Siqi said: "No matter what, I can't let you go back."

Mou Rongtian hit Yan Siqi backward with his elbow and shouted: "Let me go!"

Yan Siqi endured the pain, hugged Mou Rongtian and swam forward, shouting: "Follow me, I won't let you go back no matter what."

Cheng Da advised: "Master Qianhu, just listen to Boss Yan. Now is not the time to save Baihu. Let's get out of the tiger's mouth first and then make plans."

Mou Rongtian scolded: "Fuck you, Cheng Da, you just watched Yanzi being arrested and didn't help, are you still a human being? Get out of here, get away from me."

Mou Rongtian was anxious again. He was so anxious that he didn't even care about recuperation and recuperation.

Cheng Da was so ashamed that he was speechless.

At this moment, three warships came from the direction of Goryeo, with a turtle ship in front and two wooden house ships following closely behind.

Yan Siqi shouted: "Korean warship, Brother Yanzi is saved this time."

Mou Rongtian stopped fussing and everyone swam towards the turtle boat, waving and shouting.

The turtle ship opened the hatch, lowered the ladder, and everyone got on board.

Yan Siqi was very happy to see Yang Tiansheng and Xiao Zheng Zhilong on the ship, as well as many sailors who had escaped.

A soldier said: "Who is Mr. Mou Rongtian Qianhu? Our general has invited you."

Mou Rongtian also speaks Korean well. Although he is not proficient in it, he can have normal conversations without any problem.

Mou Rongtian cupped his fists and said, "I am Mou Rongtian."

The soldier said: "Master Mou, please follow me."

When Mou Rongtian came to the leading command post, the soldier said to Li Bie, the general of the Goryeo navy: "General, please come, Master Mou."

Li Bie said: "Go down."

Mou Rongtian saw that this man was in his forties, not tall, quite thin, with big ears and a good appearance. He wore a helmet on his head, wore armor, and had a sword hanging on his waist.

Li Bie stepped forward and clasped his fists and said: "I am Li Bie, the general of the Goryeo navy."

Mou Rongtian said: "I'm here to investigate Mou Rongtian of Qianhu, Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town."

Li Bie said: "Mou Qianhu, you are frightened. Please sit down quickly."

The two sat down and Mou Rongtian said: "General, one of my brothers was captured by Japanese pirates. Please send troops to rescue him."

Li Bie said: "I can't say. How many warships did the other party come to?"

Mou Rongtian said: "A large house ship."

Li Bie said: "It's not a big problem. I will order the pursuit right now."

Then he said to Li Wan, the deputy general of the navy: "My general order, there is a large Japanese pirate ship ahead, and the fleet is ready for battle."

Li Wan went down to convey the order.

Li Yi came from a famous family. His father was Yi Sun-sin, a famous anti-Japanese general in Goryeo and a former navy general.

In the Noryang naval battle, Yi Sun-shin was shot and killed, sacrificing his life for the country. After his death, Li Yi succeeded the navy general and took charge of the Goryeo navy.

Li Wan, the deputy general of the navy, was Li Bie's younger brother and was a few years younger than Li Bie.

When Mr. Yan's merchant ship was bombarded, Li Yi was practicing at sea. He heard the sound of cannons and came looking for the sound. He rescued Yang Tiansheng along the way. They were old acquaintances and knew each other. He learned about Mou Rongtian from Yang Tiansheng.

With Yan Siqi.

The base camp of the Goryeo navy was originally in Goryeo. Later, Li Bie decided to move to Geoje Island, which was not far from Goryeo. The reason why Li Bie did this was for money.

It has been more than ten years since the Imjin War ended. King Gwanghae Gun of Goryeo, Lee Hun, had long since recovered from the pain of the war and began to enjoy himself in time. He only knew about eating, drinking and having fun all day long, which made Goryeo's armaments depleted.

Li Bie saw this and was anxious in his heart. He advised the King of Goryeo several times to have some snacks instead of just eating, drinking and having fun. Although the old Toyotomi died, another Tokugawa Ieyasu appeared.

Under Toyotomi, he was even more ambitious. If Goryeo wanted to be wary of another invasion by Japanese pirates, it should make plans in advance.

The King of Korea said: "If Japanese pirates invade, we can ask our parents' country to come to our aid. With the Ming Dynasty here, what should we fear?"

When Goryeo called Daddy, the Ming Empire fed them with rice and flour and helped them fight the war. This cry of Daddy was too valuable.

The King of Goryeo became more and more shameless. He built palaces to enjoy himself and spent money like water. The naval army could not even pay food and wages. As soon as Li Bie went to him to ask for money, he said: "The treasury is empty and there is no money. You have to think of something yourself."

What could Li Yi do? The Li family had been honest officials for generations and were not wealthy. He couldn't afford to pay for it out of his own pocket. Later, Li Yi had no choice but to find a devious way and started smuggling merchant ships.

.

Goryeo did not allow civilians to engage in private maritime trade with Japan. Smuggling merchants gathered on Geoje Island, which was their transit station. After the naval base camp was moved to Geoje Island, Li Yi turned a blind eye to the smuggling merchant ships.

Eyes. If you give money, close your eyes and turn a blind eye. If you don't give money, open your eyes and punish the crime according to the law.

Through this method, Li Yi got money and solved the problem of shortage of food and salary for the naval army. The King of Goryeo also turned a blind eye to this. When he didn't want to deal with Li Yi, he closed his eyes and pretended not to know. When he wanted to deal with him, he closed his eyes and pretended not to know.

When Li Bian comes, just open your eyes and deal with him.

The turtle ship that Li Yi was on was a large warship, no less than the Hirado Maru in size. The two were basically the same. It could be said that they were evenly matched. In the Goryeo Imjin Patriotic War, the turtle ship showed its talents and won several battles.

Victory in naval battles and fame spread far and wide.

This ship was built by Goryeo under the supervision of Yi Sun-shin in order to resist the invasion of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It looks like a huge turtle, so it is called the turtle ship.

Yi Sun-shin was an upright official and did not take bribes or bend the law. During the shipbuilding process, he did not cut corners and worked hard. Therefore, the turtle ship was of excellent quality and very strong and durable. The ship was fast and had great firepower. It was a very advanced warship in Asia at that time.

Turtle ships have three treasures. The first treasure is the dragon head. It is placed on the bow of the ship. The dragon's mouth is equipped with a spray tube, which can spray poisonous dense fog and fire. If you are not equipped with a spray tube, you can also equip a spray gun.

Artillery. The combat command post is inside the dragon head.

The faucet was originally a faucet. When he was designing it, Yi Sun-shin took a look at the drawings and felt that the faucet was not good. It looked too soft and had no deterrent effect, so he ordered it to be changed to a faucet.

The second treasure is the turtle shell. There is a shell on the turtle boat, which is like a turtle shell. The surface is covered with iron sheets and densely covered with iron spikes. Its main function is to resist climbing.

The third treasure is the artillery. There are two cannons at the front and rear of the turtle ship, and eleven gunports on both sides.

Lao Songpu was so greedy for profit that he had to find Mou Rongtian, but Mou Rongtian failed to find him and ran into Li Yi's fleet.

Shao Er Yizhong reported: "My lord, the Korean Navy has been spotted ahead."

Old Matsuura was startled and hurried to the bow to check, only to see that the other party was a turtle ship and two wooden house boats. He was beating his heart and thought to himself: "I really shouldn't chase Mou Rongtian and put myself in danger. The other party must have discovered us too."

, now it’s too late to turn around and return, we can only fight to the death.” So he ordered to prepare for battle.

Li Yi also discovered the Hirado Maru. The turtle ship was in front, and the two wooden house ships were behind, and they rushed towards the Hirado Maru.

Old Matsuura ordered the ship to be turned around, and the Hirado Maru faced the enemy ship. The eleven gun doors on the side were opened, revealing the black muzzles.

Old Matsuura shouted: "Fire the artillery, give me a blast, don't let the enemy ships get close." There were three ships on the other side, and there were more people than them. If they started a hand-to-hand battle, they would suffer a loss.

Old Matsuura ordered the preparations for a cannon attack.

The Japanese pirates launched four catapults, placed burning balls, and launched a cannon attack.

Turtle boats are protected by iron sheets and are not afraid of cannon attacks. Wooden house boats cannot withstand it. Fireballs hit them at the drop of a hat.

The soldiers reported to Li Zhen: "General, the Geoje and the Japanese cruiser caught fire and were severely burned. General Quan and General Park raised a signal flag to ask the general if he should continue to advance?"

Li Yi looked sad. The turtle ship had insufficient artillery shells. If the Hirado Maru launched an artillery battle, he was unsure. He wanted to use his numerical advantage to rush over and start a hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese pirates. Now that the two wooden house boats were seriously injured, he would continue

If we advance, we are likely to be ruined. The Goryeo naval forces are too weak to afford to be ruined.

Li Bie thought about it again and again, and finally decided to order the two wooden house ships to withdraw from the battlefield and let the turtle ship and Hirado Maru fight in a one-on-one battle.

The turtle ship also turned its bow and turned sideways to face the enemy ship. It also had an eleven-furlong machine gun on its side, and the Hirado Maru was equally matched. It could be said that it was a match-up, and it would be a good match. No one would take advantage, and no one would suffer.

.The two sides started to shoot at each other. The roaring sound was endless.
