Chapter 628: The Imperial Court Is Not a Bearer (The Third Leader, Lord Qiuye's Favorite Reading Plus 1/3)
The expected fierce naval battle did not happen, and the pirate Li Kuiqi's combat ability was nothing more than a joke, and at most he bullied and bullied the passing merchant ships.
The naval battle lasted an hour and a half, and the pirates of Kinmen Island, led by Li Kuiqi, were completely annihilated.
In addition to a few thinly armored winter ships of the Beiyang Naval Division, which suffered varying degrees of damage, 68 soldiers were wounded and zero were killed.
It can be said that for the Daming Water Master, this is a big victory that has not been won for many years, and Uncle Han Yu Han was happy to write a song on the spot to report to the imperial court.
But before the song was finished, Uncle Han decided to go back to the capital to report to the emperor in person.
Han Yu is not like Liu Hongchuan, he has no heart and no lungs to care about the impeachment of the courtiers, Zheng Zhilong escaped safely, this is a big deal, it is inevitable that some courtiers who hate King An will make a fuss about this matter, he is not in the court, and his heart is always unsteady.
Liu Hong gradually fell and did not keep it, and wrote a letter to his father, three little wives and Uncle Chongzhen by the way.
Since he has traveled all the way to Jiangnan, he has to deal with everything that should be dealt with, otherwise he will be sent out to Xiao Zhu on a business trip in a short time.
It's just that the fortifications along the coast of Fujian have not yet been decided, and two uninvited guests came to Anping Town.
"Little Yang Buqian and Zhong Fa have seen the Ming prince!" An old man and a young man knelt respectfully in front of the hall.
"What is the relationship between the two of you and Yang Liu, Zhong Bin and others?" Liu Hong gradually frowned.
I don't know that Li Kuiqi and his gang of pirates are in the Daming Sea, and when Zheng Zhilong is there, these pirates are all obedient to the Zheng family.
Li Kuiqi, who is entrenched in Kinmen, is the gray flag of the three flags outside the Zheng family, Yang Liu and Yang Qi of Haitan are black flags, and Zhong Bin and his gang are active for the white flag and the Matsu Islands.
"Back to the prince, I am the fourth uncle of Yang Liu and Yang Qi, this young master Zhong Fa is the eldest son of the Matsu Zhong Bin family, and I am here to deliver the message on behalf of the head of the family." Seeing that the young man named Zhong Fa was obviously a little afraid, Yang Buqian said on his behalf.
"Since you are a descendant of a pirate, you dare to come to die? Huzi, take them for me! When Niu Dabang heard that it was a pirate, he immediately turned sideways in front of Liu Hongjian as if he was facing a great enemy.
"Save it, big mallet, sit down!" Liu Hong was speechless for a while at the brain circuit of this bull mallet, he had been following him for so long, and he was stunned that there was no change at all.
These two people were able to come to him, but they didn't know that they had gone through several rounds of searching, and they couldn't even find a toothpick on their bodies.
The bull stick mallet was gradually said by Liu Hong, and he didn't care, he laughed and sat down again.
"Oh, what message does your lord send to this king? Is it possible to hope for the wind to fall? Liu Hongjian asked casually by tapping his fingers on the handle of the chair.
"Don't hide it from the prince, we have been oppressed by the Zheng family for a long time, and we want to join the court but can't, today fortunately, the court drove the Zheng bandits out of the Daming Sea, and we can see the light of day again.
My two heads of the family have discussed, and they are willing to return to the court with all their foot soldiers and ships! Yang Buqian raised his head when he said this, looking arrogant.
It is no wonder that Yang Buqian is like this, the head of the family is willing to submit to the imperial court, which is great news for the officials who deal with this matter.
If you can let the bandits submit without using swords, how can the officials who deal with this matter in the court be less rewarded? It is inevitable that he will be added to the knighthood.
This changed sense of existence made Yang Buqian a little floating, just like the official who sent a letter to the family of the Jinshi, hoping to get things done, and hoping that the master could reward something while being happy.
It's just that Yang Buqian got the wrong object.
"I'm sorry, you are willing to surrender, but this king is not willing to accept it!" Liu Hongjian sneered in his heart.
Over the years, how many evil things these pirates have done and how many innocent people they have killed, now seeing that the imperial court sailors have become stronger, they can't beat them and have no backing, so they want to vote.
Why did you go earlier?
After accepting your surrender, the court will also give you official positions, but the people don't read this, they only know that the court has given official titles to bandits who have killed their relatives.
Could it be that the imperial court is your backbiter?
Thinking about the beauty, he Liu Hongjian is not a certain Wenchen who is greedy for merit and does everything for merit, and the Beiyang Navy Master has not yet been addicted, and he is worried that no one will take the knife.
"This ......," Yang Buqian said goodbye to Liu Hong for a while, and was gradually confused.
Don't want such a big credit, why doesn't this young prince play cards according to the routine?
"Go back, although this king really wants to kill the two of you to comfort the people, but the two armies are fighting and not killing, while this king has not changed his mind, hurry back!" Liu Hong gradually pretended to be impatient.
As soon as Liu Hong said this, the two of them were in a hurry, and Zhong Fa, who had never dared to speak, fell to his knees with a bang.
"Lord Wang, we are really sincerely attached to the imperial court, we have warships and soldiers in our hands, and we are willing to give you the best of the way.
I hope that the imperial court, no, I hope that the prince can agree to our surrender! Zhong Fa snorted and cried, and he didn't know whether he was anxious or scared.
The destruction of Li Kuiqi on Kinmen Island really frightened Yang Liu, Yang Qi, and Zhong Bin.
In the past, I always felt that the Zheng family was not a thing, and I didn't treat them as people, but now that the Zheng family has run away, they find out that although the Zheng family is not a thing, it is a thigh after all, and they can still survive by holding it.
Now that the thighs are gone, the court has completely annihilated Li Kuiqi and his gang in a thunderbolt, which is simply terrifying.
Yang and Zhong didn't think about running away, but where did they run?
After this turmoil, the Zheng family must not have time to deal with their group of poor pirates who want nothing.
Nanyang is full of fans, big and small Franco, Dutch, Francha people are not easy to mess with, and they don't understand the language of other people, and going is almost equivalent to death.
Taiwan is a good place to go, but unfortunately it is also occupied by the Dutch, and in the end, Yang and Zhong found that there was no place for them in the Daming Sea.
While pondering and meditating, the two hit it off and decided to surrender to the court and continue to hug their thighs, which were still more bullish than the Zheng family.
"Oh? How many boats and how many people do you have? You speak first. Liu Hong gradually pointed at Yang Buqian and said.
"Back to the prince, there are more than 6,400 sailors of the Yang family, more than 280 warships, and 460 artillery pieces on Haitan Island!" was gradually angered by Liu Hong, even though Yang Buqian had always been proud of the Yang family's military strength, he still didn't dare to be presumptuous, and replied honestly.
"My Zhong family in the Matsu area has 5,006 soldiers, 240 ships, and 320 artillery pieces." Zhong Fa also replied.
"With so many ships and men, why do you only have so many artillery? That's it, and the king will give you a chance.
If you want to go down, you can! Hand over all ill-gotten gains, including gold, silver, and loot.
The king knew that you could not be the master, so he went back and told the master of your house, "The king will wait for you for eight days." ”
