After listening to Tajima Mamoru's translation, Tokugawa Lao slowly left with his hands behind his back, walked slowly around the garden, and then said to Tajima Mamoru: "Take him down."
After Shi Yi was taken away, Old Tokugawa said: "Yagyu-kun, how credible do you think his words are?"
Dan Ma Shoudao: "Five points are credible."
Old Tokugawa said: "Why five points?"
But Ma Shoudao said, "I wonder if Queen Wanli is seriously ill?"
Old Tokugawa said: "What if it's true?"
Dan Ma Shoudao: "That is very credible."
Old Tokugawa said: "Investigate this matter quickly."
Dan Ma Shoudao: "I will obey my orders."
But Ma Shou was the intelligence chief of the old Tokugawa. His intelligence network not only spread all over Japan, but also had eyes and ears in Goryeo and the Ming Empire.
A breeze blew and the sea was calm. Everyone stood on the bow of the boat. Yan Siqi said: "This should be the sea outside Mikawa. We can reach Edo Bay in four or five days."
Mou Rongtian said worriedly: "I don't know what Yanzi's situation is now?"
Yan Siqi said: "Brother Yanzi is blessed with great fortune, and he will definitely turn misfortune into good fortune, and disaster into good fortune."
Mou Rongtian said: "I hope so."
Yan Siqi saw a sea-going ship appearing at the junction of the sea and the sky in front of him, but he didn't pay much attention, thinking it was an ordinary merchant ship. After a while, he saw clearly that it was a medium-sized Anzai warship with the flag of the Hirado clan flying on it.
"Oops! It's the warship of the Hirado clan. Why did they come here? They are really enemies on a narrow road!" Yan Siqi shouted.
Mou Rongtian said: "How should we respond?"
Yan Siqi said: "Let's hide, maybe we can avoid it." He ordered the ship to turn around and sail to the open sea. General An urged the sailors to row more quickly.
Young Master Yizhong didn't expect to get an unexpected harvest on the way back. He was overjoyed when he saw that it was Boss Yan's merchant ship. He thought to himself: "This is a lucky man who doesn't have to be busy. The ship was not sunk last time and Mou Rongtian escaped.
I didn't expect it to pop up here again.
"Is there Mou Rongtian on the ship? If Mou Rongtian is on the ship, it is because of the blessing of Amaterasu, and it is my turn to be promoted and make a fortune."
The equipment of the Matsuura is not as good as the Hirado Maru, which is one level lower. There are only fourteen French cannons on the ship, two at the head and the tail, and five on each side. There are fifty rowers, one hundred musketeers, and archers.
One hundred men, one hundred plain gunners, thirty remaining sailors, and two catapults.
Seeing that the merchant ship wanted to escape, Shao Er Yizhong ordered the catapults to be launched and launched a cannon attack. In a short time, the two catapults were ready.
Shao Er ordered the launch, and the two fireballs followed a parabola and landed on the merchant ship. The merchant ship was a wooden structure and could hit the target at one click.
Yan Siqi shouted: "I can't escape, so I turned the boat around, rushed over, and fought with them."
Seeing the merchant ship approaching, Shao Er ordered the ship to turn around and face the merchant ship, shouting: "Fire the gun and sink it. Don't let it get close."
The five French cannons on the side were banging and bombs exploded on the merchant ship. The merchant ship gradually sank.
Yan Siqi saw that he was still thousands of meters away from the enemy ship. Before he could rush over, the merchant ship had already sunk. He shouted: "Get into the water, let's swim over and fight them."
Everyone threw themselves into the water like dumplings and swam towards the enemy ship.
Upon seeing this, Shao Er quickly organized archers and musketeers to block the attack and prevent the opponent from swimming over.
The rain of arrows and bullets fell on the sea surface, unable to hit Mou Rongtian. He dived deep, so even if he was hit, it would be fine. He had an iron shirt to protect his body. He could not hit Yan Siqi and Yang Tiansheng. These two were not good at water.
It’s also deep.
General An and his one hundred sailors are well-trained and experienced, and they all know how to avoid bows, arrows and muskets in the water.
Shao Er saw that bows and arrows and muskets were of little use and he didn't kill a few, so he didn't care. He thought to himself: "What will happen if you come here? The ship is so high, can you climb up?"
At this moment, a tall body jumped onto the deck. The young man could not look at it. He was so frightened that he couldn't move his mouth. He trembled and said to himself: "Mou...Mou Rongtian!"
I felt weak and almost fell down from fear.
Mou Rongtian's lightness skills were average, but it was not a problem to jump onto the Matsuura warship. He swam under the ship, picked up onions on dry land, and jumped on.
Mou Rongtian waved the tiger-headed sword, like a tiger entering a herd of sheep. He raised the sword and dropped it. An Ashigaru's head fell to the ground. He raised the sword again and dropped it. This time, the heads of the two Ashura fell to the ground at the same time. They were standing too close and were killed by the tiger.
The head knife was stewed in one spoonful.
Mou Rongtian saw that Shao Er Yizhong was wearing a rib helmet and a large armor. The helmet was bright and the attire was different. He saw that he was the leader. He thought of shooting the man first, shooting the horse, and capturing the thief first. Capture the king first, and charged at Shao Er.
He passed by, and in a blink of an eye, he rushed to get closer and slashed with his sword.
Shao Er knew that he was no match for Mou Rongtian, but he did not run for his life and braved the challenge. He was not a coward, he had skills at hand, had a plain spear in his hand, and was well-known in the Hirado clan. He was not a coward, but who would he fight with?
Compared with Mou Rongtian, he couldn't do anything right now.
When Shao Er saw the tiger-headed knife coming, he swung his spear horizontally and raised fire to the sky, trying to take the tiger-headed knife away. Mou Rongtian flipped his wrist, the knife went in the middle, blocked his waist with a jade belt, and cut Shaoer into two pieces.
.
At this time, Yan Siqi and Yang Tiansheng also jumped on the bow of the ship and started a melee with the Japanese pirates. An Shen would lead a few skilled sailors to climb onto the ship and lower several ropes. The other sailors grabbed the ropes and climbed up to start a fierce battle with the Japanese pirates.
.
The Japanese archers and musketeers threw away their bows, arrows and muskets, drew their swords, and started fighting. The battle lasted less than a stick of incense and ended with Mou Rongtian's victory.
Everyone cleaned the battlefield and threw the bodies of the Japanese pirates into the sea. The Korean soldiers hated the Japanese pirates so much that when they found those who were still alive, they chopped them off with their swords. After cutting off their heads, they threw them into the sea.
Yan Siqi smiled at General An and said, "Lao An, when we go back and dedicate this warship to the general, he will be very happy."
General An smiled and said: "Of course, we have captured so many artillery and muskets. It's no wonder that the general is unhappy."
After cleaning the battlefield, the Matsuura set sail and arrived at Edo Bay a few days later. It did not dare to enter the port during the day and waited until late at night before secretly mooring at the pier. The ship did not dare to park at the pier all the time. After putting down Mou Rongtian and Yan Siqi, it left the pier.
.The two parties agreed to meet here again at midnight three days later.
In the afternoon of the next day, Qian Dayou, Pang Wan, and Forty Six were lying in the house taking a nap. The servant knocked on the door and asked, "Is Mr. Qian there?"
Qian Dayou said: "What's the matter?"
The servant asked: "Is there anyone looking for you at the door?"
Qian Dayou said: "Who is it?"
The servant said: "That man said he was a good friend of yours. When he was young, he went to the mountains with you to collect firewood."
Qian Da was startled and thought: "Could it be that Li Yuan is here?" He hurriedly ran out and when he came to the door, he saw a man of medium build, tall and strong, about the same age as Li Yuan, but he didn't look like him.
The person who came was not Li Yuan at all, but Yan Siqi, who used Li Yuan's excuse to lure Qian Dayou out. Mou Rongtian felt that Qian Dayou might know the whereabouts of Shi Yi. He had a big target and was too conspicuous to come to find Qian Dayou.
, I can only trouble Yan Siqi to go there.
Yagyu Tajima Mamoru was a well-known figure in Japan. It was not difficult for Yan Siqi to find his house. As soon as he inquired, he found out that he lived in Wujia Town. When he arrived in Wujia Town, he inquired again and found this place.
Qian Dayou was confused and asked: "Are you Yuanzi?"
Yan Siqi said: "Are you wealthy?"
When Qian Dayou heard this, his accent was wrong and he said, "I am Qian Dayou, who are you?"
Seeing that there was no one else around, Yan Siqi whispered: "I am Mou Rongtian's friend. He asked me to come to you."
Qian Dayou thought: "Really or not? Could it be that Liu Sheng sent someone to test me? Liu Sheng also knew that I was collecting firewood with Li Yuan when I was a child. I have to be careful, so I have to be careful." He said with a straight face.
: "Mo Rongtian is looking for me? Why is he looking for me? I am about to arrest him. Tell me, where is he hiding?"
Yan Siqi was stunned and thought: "What's going on? Mou Rongtian said Qian Dayou is a friend, but this doesn't seem like a friend. It's not a good place to stay here for a long time. I have to leave quickly. If I fall into their hands, I won't get any good results."
eat."
He made up his mind, turned around and left.
Qian Dayou said: "It's not that easy to leave."
Yan Siqi ran away when he saw Qian Dayou coming.
Qian Dayou is in hot pursuit.
After leaving Wujia Town and arriving at the outskirts, Qian Dayou saw that there was no one nearby, so he jumped up to catch up with Yan Siqi and slashed him with his knife.
Yan Siqi drew out his sword to parry, and the two engaged in a fight. After only a dozen rounds, Qian Dayou turned around, walked around behind Yan Siqi, pressed his sword against Yan Siqi's back, and said: "Don't move, move, I'm
I've pierced your candied haws. Put the knife in its sheath, take it off and throw it on the ground."
Yan Siqi followed the instructions and said bitterly: "How could Mou Rongtian treat you as a friend when he is blind?"
Qian Dayou said: "Don't act with me, tell me quickly, are you sent by Liu Sheng to test me?"
When Yan Siqi heard this, he thought to himself: "It turns out that he doubts my identity." He said: "I am really Mou Rongtian's friend. What do you want me to say before you believe it?"
Qian Dayou said: "It is empty talk. Unless I see Mou Rongtian, I will never believe your lies."
Yan Siqi said: "I will take you to see him."
Qian Dayou said: "Where is he hiding?"
Yan Siqi said: "In the mountains outside the city."
Qian Dayou turned to face Yan Siqi, suddenly stretched out his two fingers, and pressed the points on Yan Siqi's Dantian points to seal his Dantian Qi sea. He leaned over to pick up his knife, inserted it into his waist, and said, "Take me to see him."
Mou Rongtian, if you dare to play tricks, I will kill you with one knife."
Yan Siqi smiled bitterly and said: "What tricks am I playing? I am really Mou Rongtian's friend."
Qian Dayou said: "Stop talking nonsense, walk quickly and lead the way."
The two of them left the city, went into the mountains, and came to the entrance of the cave. Yan Siqi said: "Brother Mou, I brought you a lot of money."
Seeing Mou Rongtian walk out of the cave, Qian Dayou felt relieved. He opened Yan Siqi's acupuncture points and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm sorry."
Yan Siqi smiled and said: "Brother, you are too cautious. If you kill me with a knife, wouldn't I die unjustly?"
Qian Dayou said with a smile: "You can't do it if you are not careful. If you are careful, you can sail a thousand-year-old ship. Don't blame me."
