Chapter 156 Golden State Landing
Yan Siqi sneered: "I am extremely disappointed with the court. I want me to accept the court's amnesty? There is no door."
"Then you can let me go back to the north, right?" Gao Shixin asked.
"Don't leave, you get on my boat. Whether you can go back depends on whether I'm in a good mood!" Yan Siqi sneered.
"Uncle Yan, since that's the case, I'm sorry!" After Gao Shixin finished speaking, he attacked like lightning, and a short knife appeared in his hand like a magic trick. However, he couldn't kill Yan Siqi, so he wanted to subdue the pirate leader and force him to send him back.
Yan Siqi's martial arts skills are not weak. Seeing Gao Shixin taking action, he flashed to the side and shouted, "Come on!"
But after shouting for a long time, no one came over. It turned out that all the guards in the upper cabin were subdued by Cai Jiuyi and the others, and they were all tied up and thrown on the upper light gun deck.
Yan Siqi's five-foot-long samurai sword was unable to be pulled out, so he had to pull out a two-foot-long sabre. The two fought in the cabin. Although his martial arts were very powerful, he was no match for a cheated Gao Shixin after all. What's more, the short knife in Gao Shixin's hand was made of steel left at the bottom of the iron pool when he helped Yan Siqi cast a cannon. It not only cuts iron like mud, but is also extremely hard.
Gao Shixin's movements were as fast as lightning, with each attack extremely powerful, and the sword in his hand was extremely sharp. In a few rounds, the gap in Yan Siqi's hand was broken into two pieces and dropped to the ground. He stepped forward with a quick step forward, and the short sword in his hand rested on Yan Siqi's neck.
"Uncle Yan, I'm sorry, I won't harm you, but I'm from the court. In the Liaodong crisis, I must go back to help Xiong Jinglei! You have to send me back to Laizhou to the shore." Gao Shixin put the knife on Yan Siqi's neck and suppressed him from behind.
"I won't go to Laizhou, I can only send you to North Korea. When you arrive in North Korea, you can find a way to go back by yourself." Yan Siqi said toughly.
"You have fallen into my hands. What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?" Gao Shixin sneered.
Yan Siqi smiled and said, "I am in your hands, but without my subordinates, you can't even get to North Korea. You have a very high martial arts skills, but I am still too confident, which leads to a big mistake today. I have fallen into your hands, and Yan is willing to take a chance! Your people may be able to subdue all my subordinates, but without those under my subordinates, do your people know how to drive a boat? Go to Laizhou to land? I'm not that stupid! Don't look at your mouth that sounds nice."
Manipulating a ship is a technical job. Gao Shixin doesn't understand, and he doesn't understand all the sailors he brought.
"But when landing in North Korea, Uncle Yan, you are very familiar with the people there. I am afraid that Uncle Yan, you can't escape one of us, right?" Gao Shixin sneered.
"The boat is mine, and I am in your hands. But if you don't have my people, even if you kill me, you can only wait to starve to death and die of thirst on the sea! My boats are all around me. If they find something wrong and come up together, our boat will be sunk by them in a blink of an eye!" Yan Siqi said calmly with a smile on his face.
Gao Shixin thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, I'll come up with a compromise: your ship will send us to Liaodong. Although it is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, it is small, and it is not your territory. After you send us, you will go to Japan or North Korea. If you have the chance in the future, we will still be friends."
"Okay, I promise you!" Yan Siqi finally nodded in agreement.
Gao Shixin whistled, Cai Jiuyi and others outside came in, tied Yan Siqi up, and then took him outside.
Although the guards outside were tied up, Cai Jiuyi and the others dared not subdue the sailors. If there were no sailors, who would control this big ship with 1,500 materials? At this time, the sailors all reacted and picked up various weapons to surround Gao Shixin and the others.
"Send out a lantern and ask other boats to go to Dongfan first, saying that we are going to Japan." Yan Siqi shouted.
"Boss!" a sailor shouted, "Do you really want us to listen to the court hawks?"
"Send them to Liaodong and we will go to Japan." Yan Siqi said.
"No!" A group of sailors knelt on one knee to salute.
The flagship sent out a lantern signal, and the rest of the ships of all sizes saw the lantern signal and continued to sail in the east direction. Yan Siqi's flagship turned and sailed towards the coastline.
Gao Shixin took Yan Siqi back to the captain's room at the stern, allowing Wu Liuqi and Cai Jiuyi to watch him. Then he took Fu Shan, Ji Jike and others out of the cabin and boarded the deck.
It was almost dawn, and the sea was covered with gray. Looking to the right back, I saw that Yan Siqi's fleet's lights had gone away and gradually disappeared on the distant sea level. The vast sea was the only ship sailing north alone.
About half an hour passed, and it was bright and you could see the coastline to the west. On the sea level to the east, a red sun rose slowly, and golden sunlight shone on the sea. The Chinese and Western warships sailed north through the wind and waves. The sailors skillfully operated the warships. Although they were not very happy, they could only strictly implement them due to the orders of the leader.
Seeing the sailors skillfully operating, Gao Shixin realized that sailing in this era was not an easy task. When Zheng He voyages to the West, although he already had a compass and could know his course, he had no other navigational instruments and could not determine the location of the fleet itself, so Zheng He's fleet could only sail along the coastline.
Yan Siqi's ship has Western navigation instruments such as astrodiameter and right angle meter. Sailors with skilled skills can obtain their own position through the instruments, so this ship has the ability to operate a ship in the ocean. It is not easy to operate a ship. The wind direction on the sea is uncertain, and sailors need to turn the sail at any time according to the wind direction to use the wind to obtain forward thrust. To be honest, without Yan Siqi's order, even if the ship is given to Gao Shixin and others to drive, they cannot drive the ship to the shore.
"Boss, where are we going now?" Fu Shan asked.
"Go to Liaodong, kill Jiannu, and serve the court!" Gao Shixin said.
When I heard that I was going to Liaodong to serve the court, everyone under my command cheered. Ji Ji said ridiculously: "Learn civil and martial arts, I will sell it to the imperial family! We have learned a lot of skills but have no talent. Now we have the opportunity to serve the court, which is great!"
Ji Jike was both civil and military. His talent in literature was able to communicate with Huang Zongxi, Gu Yanwu and others. He was an important figure in the later anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty. However, such a person was first a military general in his original time and space. It was normal that he was not satisfied with talent in the late Ming Dynasty who valued culture and neglected military. What is the point of making military achievements? First of all, he should give the credit to civil officials.
The ship sailed on the sea for five days, and on the morning of the fifth day, he had already seen the coastline ahead.
"This is Jinzhou, right?" Gao Shixin asked.
Yan Siqi sneered: "If you don't believe it, I'll let the sailors teach you the right angle meter. You will understand it after you learn it."
The cannon boats sailed to the shore of Jinzhou, but at this time there was no Dongjiang Town, and there was no pier to provide boat docking on the seaside of Jinzhou, so they could only be parked in the sea.
"We have arrived. You use a boat to deliver our people and goods to the ashore. I'll be here to accompany you Uncle Yan. When they all get ashore, I'll be the last one to leave." Gao Shixin put the knife on Yan Siqi's neck.
"Boy, you are really cautious in your work! Are you afraid that you will board the boat and we will bombard you?" Yan Siqi smiled, "I am not like your Ming court, and I will do all the treacherous things!"
Gao Shixin ordered Cai Jiuyi and others: "Please carry all our seeds onto the boat, and you will also go on the boat first, and I will stay. When you all get ashore, I will come to find you. Also, take away all the bird guns on the boat."
"No!" Cai Jiuyi and Wu Liuqi immediately took people to move things.
