Zhao Qianhu hurriedly followed the scout to the watchtower.

Standing on the tower, I saw a fire on the sea level from afar.

According to his years of experience, there are at least a dozen ships there, and they are not like Japanese pirates' ships.

Japanese pirates' ships never blatantly lit lights near the coast.

Because although the Japanese pirates were cruel, their men did not dare to confront the officers and soldiers head-on, especially in this area, where the sea outlet of Wenzhou is located, and there are many garrisons.

After igniting the beacon, the Japanese pirates would not get any advantage.

"Sir, do you need to ignite the beacon to ask for support?" A flag officer asked in a trembling voice.

There were at least thousands of Japanese pirates in the distance, and there were less than a thousand people here. Moreover, there were still wars on the river. When the Japanese pirates came, they would be attacked from both sides, and they would be in trouble.

"Send out a quick trip and see what the ships are from?" Zhao Qianhu said nervously.

At that moment, a small boat went down from the sea.

Zhao Qianhu held the railings on the watchtower tightly, and a layer of cold sweat broke out from his body.

He has been stationed in the local area for many years and has such a large scale maritime armed forces. In addition to the Japanese pirates on the islands in the distance, they are the maritime armed forces guarded by Taizhou.

Because the capital of the Ming Dynasty was alive in Nanjing, Hangzhou and Nanjing were surrounded by water, which was a key place in the capital. How could the Japanese pirates be tolerate nonsense?

In the second year of Hongwu, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the Northern Expedition, Zhu Yuanzhang first cleared the Japanese pirates here, and the Japanese pirates were defeated at that time.

Afterwards, Zhang Shicheng's old subordinates and refugees were recruited along the coast, and Minzhuang established a navy.

Although the scale is not as large as Zheng He's voyage to the West, it is more than enough to deal with Japanese pirates.

Although the Japanese pirates were rampant, they never dared to approach Nanjing, Suzhou. Now twenty years have passed, and naturally, as the key to resisting Japanese pirates, a navy was established in Taizhou.

More than a dozen warships have been built, and they have had confrontations with the Japanese pirates over the years, and the Japanese pirates fled in a hurry.

Zhao Qianhu knew that if the ship in front of him was not a Japanese pirate, it might be a navy in Taizhou.

Behind him, the remnants of the Wen family were being cleared. It was very likely that the Taizhou navy, who was on the mission, heard the movement here and came to reinforce here.

Now things get tricky.

Once Taizhou navy gets involved, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The most important thing is that the Wen family smuggling is closely related to their Panshi Guard. If the sailors on the ship are captured by the Taizhou Navy, it is very likely that he and Commander Zhou will be exposed.

When Zhao Qianhu thought of this, his scalp felt a little numb.

However, it was the old saying that was printed - it was raining all night long.

The small boat that went out to spy was back, and the scout on the boat came down and knelt on the ground and said, "Sir, the Taizhou Navy warship is in the distance."

"What? You can't read it wrong, right?" Zhao Qianhu asked.

"Absolutely not." He clasped his fists.

The people behind Zhao Qianhu all breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it was not Japanese pirates, at least they would not be able to lose their lives.

However, this time it was Zhao Qianhu's turn to be ashamed.

It seems that the warships in the distance do not mean to slow down or leave at all. Once they get ashore, it will be sooner or later to reveal the stuff.

"Black Dog. Come on." Zhao Qianhu shouted.

"Sir, what are your instructions?" Hei Gouzi was Lao Zhao's personal soldier, so he believed in people the most.

"Go and notify Commander Zhou immediately, and say that the Taizhou navy suddenly appeared. The situation is unknown, go quickly." Zhao Qianhu said.

The black dog turned over and headed towards the horse shed.

At this moment, Li Yunchang stood on the bow of the main ship with his hands on his back.

The ship sailed through the wind and waves, and the salty and wet sea breeze came towards him, mixed with water mist, wetting his armor.

It was getting closer and closer to Ningcun Institute, but I saw the fires soaring into the sky from Ningcun Institute.

He didn't know what was going on.

According to the original plan today, the Wen family's ship was stopped by him before it even went to sea.

The people were captured and captured, and then Zhao Qianhu was arrested, followed the clues, and then completely controlled Panshiwei.

Then, with evidence, once you get to the court, you will make another great contribution.

However, the situation in front of him made him feel a little overwhelmed.

"Is it the Japanese pirates landed?" Li Yunchang pondered in a low voice.

But when you think about it, it is unlikely that the Japanese pirates do not have the courage.

Before he took office in Taizhou, he heard the officers and soldiers in the guards say how cruel and powerful the Japanese pirates were.

However, after a few encounters in Taizhou, I felt that it was a bit exaggerated.

The Japanese pirates were indeed cruel, brave in fighting, and skillful in fighting skills and extremely cunning.

However, it was a group of mobs, with almost zero supply and logistics.

Once the confrontation is not advantageous, it will be defeated.

I met Japanese pirates several times at sea, but they fled.

He caught a few prisoners and often cut his stomach, which made him very angry.

If he had met the Japanese pirates here today, he looked at the situation of Ningcun Institute and smiled and said, "There are unexpected gains when you hug the grass and beat the rabbit. Zhang Mu, Zhang Mu, you are indeed the lucky star of my official."

"Sir, I'm going to dock. Do I need to send someone to Ningcun to contact me?" said a general.

Li Yunchang shook his head and said, "Send the order and prepare for battle. After a while, landing, whether it is the Japanese pirates or the officers and soldiers, they dare to provoke us and kill us without any hesitation."

The general was stunned. This order was meaningful, but the military order was like a mountain. He did not dare to ask too much and hurried down to convey the order.

In less than a stick of incense, Li Yunchang's fleet arrived at the entrance of the Yongjia River.

As soon as he arrived at the coast, he put down his windsurfing and the Taizhou navy, who was on standby, began to disembark immediately.

Under the escort of his personal soldiers, Li Yunchang just arrived at the dock and saw about dozens of people coming from afar, with Zhao Qianhu leading the way.

"Sir, Panshiwei Zhao Yonggang asked for a meeting." A scout ran over and said.

Li Yunchang's face was as deep as water, and he waved his hand and said, "Let him come to see me."

At this time, Zhao Qianhu, covered in armor, hurried to the dock and saluted Li Yunchang when he saw him.

Li Yunchang asked: "What happened here?"

"Report to the master, some unruly people pretended to be Japanese pirates going out to sea. I was caught by patrol and were being cleared at this moment." Zhao Qianhu said.

Li Yunchang looked at the fire there and judged that it was definitely not a small boat that was on fire.

Where can ordinary people afford large ships?

He couldn't help but frowned and said, "No wonder the Japanese pirates failed to pay them cleanly after several times. It turned out that someone was doing internal reasons. Zhao Qianhu, you did a good job. However, this matter is related to Taizhou's defense. From now on, you will immediately ask your people to evacuate here and hand over all the prisoners to us."

Li Yunchang is the deputy general and has the power to transfer troops. Zhao Qianhu naturally has to obey his orders, but Zhao Qianhu said with a puzzled look: "Sir, brothers have finally handled a case. Now the battle is about to end. Why not wait here and there is no need for the adult to take action."
