Jiang Hao's fleet rushed towards Ryukyu. At this time, his fleet had 13 warships, including 4 five-masted large ships, 7 three-masted warships, and two Dutch sailing warships he just grabbed.

Jiang Hao ordered a group of old sailors to get on the boat and get familiar with Dutch warships as soon as possible to start fighting as soon as possible. Although the sailing boats are different from the Ming sea boats, these old sailors are experienced and with Jiang Hao's guidance, it is not difficult to get familiar with them.

The sea is vast and boundless, and the fleet cuts through the waves. Although it is a fleet of thirteen ships, it is still only a very small trough in the sea. Jiang Hao stood on the deck, and seabirds flew down and landed in his hands from time to time.

The journey to Ryukyu cannot be in vain. It is just the way to investigate the gathering places of Japanese pirates along the way. The Japanese pirates who invaded the southeast coast in the Ming Dynasty did not have a formal base camp, and they were spontaneously formed strongholds and concentration areas.

The places with more strongholds are Shuangyu Islands, Zhoushan Islands, Songjiang, Hangzhou and other places, and Hengyu, Niutian, Xinghua, Pinghai and other places in Fujian.

The Putuo Guard Station is located in the Zhoushan Islands. Jiang Hao has attacked more than a dozen strongholds on the Japanese pirates there. Of course, it is just a stronghold on the seaside and makes full use of the advantages of cannons. As for the strongholds that go deeper into the inland, Jiang Hao ignored it.

While investigating Jiang Hao's mind, he was thinking about the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates were mainly samurai who failed in the Japanese civil war, which is what modern times called the remnants of anti-ZF forces, and more were Ming people. To put it bluntly, they were pirates. It was more of an excuse to say that Japanese pirates were more of an excuse. If they were captured by the court, they would affect their family and family.

There were several big pirates in the Ming Dynasty, including Lin Daoqian, Wang Zhi, Li Dan, Zheng Zhilong and others. Lin Daoqian had dozens of ships and thousands of pirates under his command, and he colluded with Japanese pirates. He often led people to attack coastal towns and raided the Chenghai area of ​​Chaozhou. The scope of the plunder extended to Leizhou and Hainan Island. At that time, Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou's main opponent were him.

Lin Daoqian's base was in the North Port of Ryukyu, and it was not until the Qing Dynasty that Ryukyu was officially changed to Taiwan.

Later, Li Dan rose. This Li Dan was not Wu Zetian's son, nor was he the little eyes of the talk show, but a generation of pirates. He was famous at that time. Even the Japanese, Dutch, and Portuguese called him "Chinese Captain".

If Li Dan is not familiar with him, he has an awesome godson, Zheng Zhilong. After Li Dan's death, Zheng Zhilong took over some of his family's assets and finally developed into China's largest pirate group, which plundered the southeast coast for a long time.

The southeastern waters are now filled with a large number of Chinese pirates, Japanese pirates, Dutch pirates, Spanish pirates, and Portuguese pirates. They are like hungry wolves, constantly biting the body of the Ming Dynasty. However, the heads of the Ming Dynasty are very insensitive and cannot feel the pain of the skin. A scalypse of scabies floats gently.

Scarbs are mild skin diseases. The adults in the court think that pirates don’t care, they can’t make the general trend, they don’t matter or hinder the overall situation, but they never think about the sufferings of the coastal people and their negative impact on the Ming Dynasty economy.

More importantly, let others see your weakness, which led to the Western powers who think that the Ming Dynasty was a soft persimmon, and even gave birth to the idea of ​​annexing the Ming Dynasty. In the past, Japan, which respected the supreme country of China, became arrogant and gradually became covetous.

This was even more so in the late Qing Dynasty. The group of wolves looked around, but the Qing Dynasty was closed to the country but was still self-righteous. It was hit by the reduction of the latitude, which made the land of China pay a heavy price.

If you want to live well, you must become stronger by yourself. Otherwise, when you are eaten, you will have no strength to resist. What kind of justice you call for is no use. Even if people have justice, who has the ability to help you?

History is always surprisingly similar, and it has not changed even in modern times. Iraq, Kosovo, Libya, Syria... and so on. I believe there will be latecomers!

This world has always been like this, the strong prey on the weak.

As for history, Jiang Hao didn't want to study it more. His idea is very simple now, killing Japanese pirates, robbing and making money, that's all.

After three days of the boat, he came to the sea of ​​the strait. Jiang Hao's fleet was always draped with the two Dutch sailboats. He watched them sail into a small cove on Ryukyu Island and parked at the dock. The Chinese servants moved boxes of gold and silver off the boat and moved them into a small town by the sea.

Jiang Hao looked at the small town and couldn't help but nodded, "What a good place. These Dutch people are very good at choosing places."

The bay is a natural port, and it is no problem to park thousands of ships. The dock is a deep-water port. No matter how big the ship is, it can stop. The castle is seven or eight miles away from the shore, exceeding the range of the cannon, making it safer. Judging from the edge of this city, it is easy to accommodate two thousand people and can also store a large amount of supplies.

The grass and trees on the outside have been cleared out, and there are several villages where many Chinese live, and they are servants serving the Dutch.

If you take this place, it will definitely be very good as your stronghold.

A big business was made, and the prices of the two warships sold increased dozens of times. The Dutch were very happy and started to have a carnival after they got ashore. The soldiers were also allowed to drink. Their two warships were parked in the port, and only thirty or fifty people were left on one boat to guard them. Even the guards relaxed and started drinking.

Almost all of the people who sailed on the sea were alcoholics, and many of them drank too much.

As night falls, people are sleeping and dreaming with the waves, but they don’t know that in the dark, several boats are quietly approaching the dock.

"After getting on the boat, no one will be left." Baihu issued an order.

Whoosh,

One by one, he threw his claws over, and the sailors rushed to the Dutch warship with their knives in their hands. A Dutch soldier on duty found someone on board the ship and shouted loudly to issue an alarm, but he was stabbed to death with a knife as soon as he shouted.

"Kill~!"

With a few loud shouts, the guards took action and rushed into the cabin and slashed at the Dutch. What a red-haired ghost, it still turned into a dead ghost under the steel knife.

It didn't take long for the Dutch people on the two ships to be slaughtered, their bodies were thrown into the sea, and two large ships were hijacked and dragged into the sea.

The movements at the beach were very small, and the people in the castle did not notice them at all. Jiang Hao brought people to the castle, and the whole castle was still quiet.

"Swoosh~!"

Jiang Hao lifted his body and flew more than ten meters high. Then he clicked on the wall and went directly to the top of the city. He turned over and jumped down. The guard had several guys on duty, all of whom were sleeping crookedly. Jiang Hao solved it directly with one sword. He moved the thick iron door bolt and made a creaking sound when the door was pushed open.

Several hundred households rushed into the city with their people, but no one made a sound. Jiang Hao waved his hand and all took the people to scatter and rushed to the residence of the military camp. After about a few sucking time, bursts of screams came from the military camp, and the entire Dutch castle came alive.

"Someone attacked!"

"Pick up our sword and fight back."

"Puff!"

"Shoot, shoot."

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

There was a chaos in the castle, fighting everywhere, and there were four or five hundred Dutch people. After discovering that the enemy attacked, they began to fight back. However, it was too late. Jiang Hao's order was to not capture prisoners and kill them all, and he had no sympathy for the invaders and pirates.

The castle was very chaotic, and in the end all the Dutch were cut and killed. Jiang Hao didn't see any leader, captain, first mate, and they were all slaughtered. They ended up being clean. The soldiers of the guards began to move the bodies out and threw them down in a valley. However, before they were thrown down, they all made up for a knife, and they couldn't pretend to be dead.

When I walked into the best house in this castle, there were exquisite Ming Dynasty furniture. In a room next to it, Jiang Hao saw boxes of gold. That's right, it was gold. Before, Jiang Hao thought Dongfang Bubai gave silver, but now he realized that he was given gold.

No wonder the Dutch were willing to sell the warship to Dongfang Bubai, because Dongfang Bubai gave a price that was enough to impress the other party. Jiang Hao raised one of the boxes and tried the weight. This box was about 2,000 taels, and there were 50 boxes here. Damn, this was 100,000 taels of gold.

The harvest this time was huge, with 100,000 taels of gold, two Dutch sailing warships, and more importantly, they also won a base.

Jiang Hao summoned a few hundred households to come, "I decided to treat this place as a secret base for us. If there is really something wrong in the future, I can bring Jiaxiao here and settle here."

What they did was a serious crime of beheading and extermination. Several hundred households knew that Jiang Hao was looking for a way out for everyone, so they immediately agreed that Jiang Hao left the most stable Yan Hui to the head, leaving him a large sailboat, three three-masted ships, which was enough to protect himself.

When the fleet returned, in addition to snatching four warships, there were more than 600 muskets. On the way back, Jiang Hao asked the soldiers to start training muskets to use. With the muskets, their combat power increased by several cents at once.

The ship returned to Putuo Port and transported a large amount of robbed materials to the warehouse. Jiang Hao called Yuan De and ordered: "Yuan De, I am going to go out for a long journey. You can keep an eye on the family matters. I can tell you that I have found a way out. I sincerely follow me and I will definitely guarantee you no worries in the future."

"Everyone follows the instructions of the Lord." Yuan De immediately made a statement.

Jiang Hao took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Yuan De, "This is the antidote. One pill can be used for one month, a total of twelve pills, which is enough for one year. When I come back, if you do it well, you will completely detoxify you."

Yuan De was overjoyed and took the antidote, "Don't worry, sir, you must take care of your family's affairs."

He called a few hundred households and ordered: "I am going to travel far, from half a year to a long time. You can keep a close eye on the family affairs. Now there are a few things to tell you. The first is to recruit a large number of people. Now we have money and food. The more people we have, the better. If we have more, we will transport them to the base of Ryukyu Island."

"I have a chart for you about the Japanese pirates. Be careful when you go out, don't make a quick move, just grab it and leave, and don't reveal your identity."

"My harrier will follow me and come back every 10 days. If you have something to do, you can report it to me at any time."

Several hundred households responded immediately, and then Shen Yi asked: "Sir, where are you going? It takes so long?"

"It's so boring, I'll walk around the world."

Jiang Hao did not forget his mission.
Chapter completed!
