Chapter 337: Landing (2-in-1)
"I must admit that the choice of the camp of the anti-Japanese Ming army is partly due to emotional factors. ”
Bai Xiaowen paused and asked rhetorically: "Shuyi, in the Kane Plane World, if we chose to cut in as the son of the Blood Spear Overseer at that time, and fight side by side with a group of cannibals to slaughter the human city...... What do you think?"
Li Shuyi's face turned a little pale, shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Intellectually speaking, the spirit world is not equal to the real world, and it doesn't matter which camp you want to join in the spirit world, even the camp against humanity. But even though there is no legal constraint, what we do is still subject to the most basic moral constraints within us...... In other words, keep the bottom line of human nature. ”
Bai Xiaowen said, "In the history of the Jiajing War, the Japanese invaded the southeast coast, after the city was broken, the old and weak were killed, the young and strong hair was used as a fake Japanese army, and the women weaved cloth during the day, and at night they were raped by the Japanese invaders. So, I don't want to join this camp, even if it's just in the spirit plane, even if it's only for ten days. ”
The Japanese in Jiajing and the Japanese rebellion, just like the Japanese army that invaded China during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, had no humanity to speak of. If Bai Xiaowen was matched to a certain dimensional world of the War of Resistance Against Japan, would he add the Japanese army to invade China? Obviously, it was impossible, even if the camp had obvious advantages, Bai Xiaowen would not do so.
This is the bottom line of human nature.
Li Shuyi said with relief: "I agree with your opinion. When I was in the Kane Plane World, I killed those man-eating orcs, and I felt that I could use 12 percent of my strength. If we stand in the camp of the orcs and slaughter humans, I am afraid that the combat power we can exert will be reduced, and I don't know if we have the courage to wield a sword. ”
Bai Xiaowen nodded, and then said:
"Of course, I chose the camp of the anti-Japanese Ming army, and I also had rational considerations. Judging from the background, the base camp of the anti-Japanese Ming army is the Ming Dynasty, and the people are abundant, and the exchangeable items at the quartermaster's office must be of a wide variety, and there may be some excellent specialties. This can be seen from the increase in the prestige of the camp. ”
The prestige of the anti-Japanese Ming army camp is growing slowly, and generally speaking, in this kind of prestige camp, the quartermasters are all rich, and the merit points will be more "valuable".
As for the Japanese Invaders, their forces are too scattered. As a result, most of the military supplies of the Japanese forces must be uneven and scarce. The reputation of the Wako is easy to rush, and it is also easier to complete the main quest. But what can you do when you rush to worship? There is no prestige and a large amount of meritorious points, but there are no good military supplies to exchange, and prestige and meritorious deeds are meaningless.
"Then how can we join the anti-Japanese Ming army?" asked Li Shuyi, "Now that this is the vast sea, we have just arrived, so how easy is it to go back to the land...... I think the rules of the spirit world are a bit biased towards us joining the Wakos. ”
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "It is definitely more difficult to join the Anti-Japanese Ming Army than to join the Japanese Invaders, after all, one is an official and the other is a thief." But don't worry, it's not impossible...... Let's open the treasure chest first. ”
After Zhao Zhixiong and the others used S-class props to teleport and escape, they were tantamount to giving up this treasure chest.
Bai Xiaowen opened the treasure chest, and the score for killing Chen Duyan was B. He quickly clicked on the gold cards and chose two of them.
Luckily, a piece of gold equipment was produced, and it was actually the thick-backed machete used by Chen Duyan! This machete is a weapon that needs to be held with both hands, and the additional attack power is amazingly high, but it requires 25 points of base strength and 20 points of base agility.
Bai Xiaowen put away the thick-backed machete of the gold equipment, and neither of them could use it.
Another item dropped is called [Ship Log], which is a diary of the voyages and raids of Chen One-Eyed's pirate fleet.
"Let's go down. Bai Xiaowen walked towards the bilge.
"Huh?" Li Shuyi was a little surprised, the two of them were killed from the bottom of the bilge, what are they going back to do now?
"In the bilge, there should still be a young and strong population that Chen Duyan has plundered......," Bai Xiaowen said, "Do you think Chen Duyan only captured the four of us? Impossible, he must have plundered other people, most of them fishermen from coastal fishing villages." We're going to get these fishermen out and put them in charge of getting the boats back to land!"
Bai Xiaowen expected that the rules of the spirit world would not cut off the way for the awakened to join the camp of the anti-Japanese Ming army, plus the entry identities of several awakened people as a reference, the other cabins in the bilge, there were pillaging fishermen prisoners was a certainty.
Chen Duyan's subordinates on this boat had been cleared, Bai Xiaowen and the two walked to the bottom cabin, summoned the vampire Kitts, ordered him to smash the door and pick the lock, and soon released more than 20 fishermen, most of them were young men, and a few unclothed women.
These fishermen are just ordinary templates, and their strength is weak.
After Bai Xiaowen said his request, the fishermen were embarrassed for a while, and finally pushed a man about thirty or forty years old to step forward.
The man made a gesture, but he was a bit of a scholar, and said respectfully: "Engong has a life, how dare I disobey, but there are two difficulties." ”
Say. ”
"The fishermen usually drive boats, all of them are small boats, and they have never operated such large boats, so they can only explore temporarily. But the boat must be slower than the wives," said the man, "and the other difficulty is that we are kept in the bilge, not knowing where it is, or which direction to go. If you want to go back to Daming, it is possible to drive to Nanyang. If you go to the South China Seas, you are afraid of encountering some reefs, and a boatload of people will be over. ”
"What's your name and what kind of business do you do?" Bai Xiaowen heard that this man was not a fisherman.
The man said: "Hui Engong, his late name is Xie Sheng, and he is now a teacher of the Xie family village. ”
"It's a scholar," Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly, handed the [Ship Log] to Xie Sheng, and said, "The above record is the route of the Japanese thief ship these days. You read the text to the fishermen in detail, so that they can confirm their course and return to land along the way. ”
Xie Sheng hurriedly thanked Bai Xiaowen. More than a dozen fishermen took the helm and hoisted their sails, and the boat slowly began to turn around.
On several other ships, the pirate fire was also coming to an end.
Originally, it would not have ended so quickly, but Chen Duyan was killed, which obviously greatly damaged the morale of the pirates on their side, and many pirates under Chen Duyan's command could only throw down their weapons and surrender when they saw that their leaders were dead.
Surrender and not die.
The various forces of the Japanese invaders are not afraid of these pirates who have seen bloody killings, and they are much more useful than the newly captured good fishermen.
Although Chen One-Eyed was dead, the pirate with a white scarf on his arm had no intention of letting go of the flagship. After a short period of reorganization and integration, he set sail and caught up!
Li Shuyi saw several sailboats approaching, frowned and said, "What are they doing when they catch up, obviously Chen Duyan is dead, and they have all seen it." ”
"I flipped through the last few pages of the ship's logbook, and Chen Duyan had just broken through a county town and plundered a lot of goods. It is estimated that this fire is also related to these goods...... The looted goods are mainly on the flagship, so the intention of the other party to catch up is also obvious......"
Bai Xiaowen walked to the cargo hold at the bottom of the big ship, this kind of hard work was done by Kitts again, he dug with his paws, and quickly pried open the door of the cargo hold.
"Wow......" Kitts whistled.
Li Shuyi was also a little surprised, at a glance, it was all gold and silver utensils, silk and cloth, piled up in the entire cargo hold.
"They are all items that cannot be taken out of this world, and they are of little value to us. Bai Xiaowen said.
"Boss, do you want to give them back?" said Kitts, with a toothache, "It's a pity that there are so many good things, and how many girls can sleep on the shore." ”
"Not yet. Besides, even if we give it back to them, those pirates won't let us go. Bai Xiaowen saw it clearly.
"Boss wise," Kitts said, patting his horse, hehe, "how can we spit out the meat in our mouths!"
"Do you still think you're a robber?" Bai Xiaowen glanced at Kitts.
Kitts shrunk his neck and smiled awkwardly: "Also, I washed my name...... Don't do this anymore. ”
"These are all ill-gotten gains plundered by the pirates, and they should also be handed over to the government and returned to the people after they go ashore. Bai Xiaowen said righteously.
Seeing that the chasing sailboat was approaching, a pirate leader with a slender figure and a shark skin armor stood at the bow of the ship and said in a loud voice: "Which road is on the other side? Do you know whose cargo this ship is?"
Bai Xiaowen stood at the stern of the boat: "It belongs to the people of the Ming Dynasty." ”
“......”
The voice of the lanky pirate leader turned cold: "Be nosy, look for death!"
The pirates were indeed much faster than the novice fishermen, and the sails were cleaved by the wind.
Bai Xiaowen took out the Desert Eagle, held the gun in both hands, and aimed at the cable of the opponent's sail.
The lanky pirate leader sneered, "I don't believe you have this kind of ability to penetrate the Yang in a hundred steps......"
Tom, tom, tom!
Gunshots rang out continuously.
Bai Xiaowen's current shooting specialty is level 3, and he is only level 4 under the bonus of the strongest scholar, to say that from such a distance, he has no ability to shoot the cable with 100 shots when the two boats are running at high speed. However, he turned on the burst mode, replacing accuracy with quantity.
Just one out of ten bullets is enough.
Under the angry gaze of the slender pirate leader, the sail cable of the ship he was riding on was broken, and the sail suddenly fell, and the ship fell sideways on the sea. This was followed by the second boat, the third boat......
The fishermen on Bai Xiaowen's boat cheered and admired in unison, and they gradually figured out the trick of manipulating the sea boat, and the speed gradually increased, and it didn't take long to throw this group of pirates wrapped in white scarves out of sight.
The slender pirate leader's face was gloomy, and he wanted to break Bai Xiaowen's body into pieces. At this time, one of his subordinates came to report that he had already connected the cable, did he continue the pursuit?
"Chase a fart. ”
The slender pirate leader waved his hand, "This time I killed Chen Duyan, the goal is half completed, and my brother can also explain it." Turn around and go back to the village!"
Suddenly, a small boat rowed over quickly, and a pirate reported: "Master Hong, on Brother Erbiao's boat, two people suddenly appeared, what did Luo Xiucai say...... Suspicious! Would you like to go over and take a look?"
"How did Er Biao do it, so that people could touch the ship unconsciously! If it was a spy of the official army, wouldn't it be a bad thing?" said the slender pirate leader "Hong Ye" angrily.
"Master Hong, don't you know, those two people fell from the sky and don't do anything about Brother Erbiao. "That pirate is obviously Er Biao's henchman.
"Is there such a thing?" Hong Ye was a little unconvinced.
"It's true, a boatload of brothers can testify. The two people also said that they had been admiring the big boss Xu Ye for a long time, and they had come to take refuge, and before Chen One-eye was killed, the two of them could be said to have made great contributions!"
"So, the people who robbed the master's goods and fled are also their comrades?" Hong Ye said angrily, "I want to ask!"
......
Bai Xiaowen finally set foot on land.
The fishermen who were taken captive, including the teacher Xie Sheng, were very grateful. Bai Xiaowen took out some goods and coins from the cabin and distributed them to them, so that after they returned, they would not be starved and frozen on the streets because their homes were broken.
Anyway, these goods and coins are items that cannot be taken out of the spirit world, and Bai Xiaowen is not distressed when they are sent out. As for why not give more? The reason why the husband is not guilty and bears his guilt, Bai Xiaowen still understands that in the Ming Dynasty during the Jiajing period, when the powerful and powerful gentry were skillful and robbed, they were not much better than the Japanese invaders.
Bai Xiaowen ordered the summoned creatures to carry a shipload of goods and put them in a secluded place, and then let the vampire Kitts take care of them. After doing all this, Bai Xiaowen took Li Shuyi, inquired along the way, and found the nearest coastal defense stronghold of the anti-Japanese Ming army, called Chongwusuo.
In the Ming Dynasty in Fujian, there were "five guards and twelve institutes" in coastal defense, and Chongwu Institute was one of them. It's just that in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was really average, and it was recorded in the Ming records that the ronin warriors formed a group of 100 people, traveled thousands of miles, and killed and injured thousands of Ming troops, which was not groundless.
Historically, the Japanese rebellion was able to be quelled, mainly by three people, one writer and two armed forces.
Let's talk about the two generals first, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang, known as Yu Long and Qi Hu, who are characters who make the Japanese frightened. According to Bai Xiaowen's memory of the history of the Ming Dynasty, Yu Dayou's evaluation is that he is strong in personal strength, while Qi Jiguang is good at commanding troops.
Let's talk about the civil official, his name is Hu Zongxian.
The Ming Dynasty has always emphasized literature over military force, and no matter how powerful the military generals are, they must be controlled by scholars, and Hu Zongxian is Yu Long Qihu's boss.
However, unlike the civilian officials in the drama who always pull the military generals back, Hu Zongxian is a capable character, rectifying coastal defense, setting up water villages, and picking up the military affairs of the Ming army. And his most powerful thing is not to train and strengthen the army, but the old profession of cultural people - flickering.
Wang Zhi, a pirate giant in the Jiajing period, can be called the godfather of pirates, self-proclaimed King Hui, based in Japan, and called "Wufeng Ship Owner". There is a sentence that shows the greatness of his power: "The cowards of the sea cannot exist unless they are controlled by (Wang)."
However, it was such a person who was fooled ashore by Hu Zongxian, and then was ensnared and killed. It can be seen that the flickering of cultural people is terrible.
Bai Xiaowen came to Chongwu and found that the mental outlook of the soldiers here was much better than he imagined, and the sentry order was forbidden, not as lax as imagined, obviously this was Hu Zongxian's rectification.
