173 The division is famous

When he received the news of the victory of the naval battle of Lu Yu and them thousands of miles away, Li Tianyang raised them on the side of the chicken coop port was also a boat shadow, and the wide dock area was the time when the people were boiling.

Many well-informed seafarers and merchants have long vaguely known something, and recently the trade in the South China Sea has become much more cautious, which has greatly reduced the trade of Jilong Port for a while.

Li Tianyang paid great attention to this clean-up operation, and he had not been on the battlefield in person for a long time, but this time he also decided to go on the tower again and command the battle with the Ryukyu Wyvern Gang.

After the end of this battle, Hongmen will once again enter a period of peaceful development, and after opening the gate to the north, Hongmen will not only have another trade route with the Goryeo people, but also be able to safely collect a large number of cattle, horses and livestock from Donggang Town to develop Dayuan.

At the same time, Li Tianyang also hoped to stealthily fund the grain and grass of the governor of Dongjiang Mao Wenlong, so that he could continue to contain the military operations of the Houjin people and win more development opportunities for himself.

Before the war, the first thing to do was to divide the troops to block the passage between Shizuurayan Siqi and the Ryukyu Pirate Zone, so that the Wyvern Gang would lose support from the land; As for Shizuura's side, Li Tianyang is very relieved, the opponent's largest armed forces are fighting in the Ryukyu Seas, as long as the battle at sea is solved, isn't Jingpu's side like a piece of fat on a chopping board, let himself cut it!!

For the sake of safety, Li Tianyang recruited the extra Penghu sailors and assigned 1,000 men and 11 warships to block the Jingpu channel and block it in Jingpu Port to prevent it from slipping away.

Jingpu has developed so far, and there are almost 10,000 recruited Ming children, for Li Tianyang, who has a bigger family business, it is still a weight that makes him excited, if he really lets them slip away from his hands, then he will really feel very distressed.

After more than a year of training, the men and horses of the Penghu Navy Division may still be a bit of a good thing when they are pulled out for actual combat, but it is still not a big problem for them to surround a stronghold where there are not many combatants and are basically peasants.

The Jilong Harbor side is so powerful, even those who are late to the realization may have already learned the news at this time, so Gong Zhuyi and their loyalty in the Ryukyu Sea area breathed a sigh of relief, in order to defend against the more powerful Hongmen sailors, Zheng Zhilong shrunk his Flying Dragon Gang team, gave up a large area to occupy the sea area, and honestly made a defensive position.

At the same time, the envoy of the Wyvern Gang also arrived at Chicken Coop Harbor, asking to see Li Tianyang and begging Li Tianyang to abandon the attack.

Of course, people's requests are really very reasonable and modest: "Lord Admiral, on behalf of my family's helper, I would like to pay tribute to you." ”

"Hmm!" After all, it was a messenger, and Li Tianyang couldn't refuse, but as the opponent who was about to start, he was not too enthusiastic, and he nodded casually without yin or yang.

The envoy of the Flying Dragon Gang saw the heavy shadows of the boats on the dock gathering here, and naturally knew the reason for Li Tianyang's indifference at this time, but he had a responsibility, but he couldn't give up because of this: "This time, in addition to paying tribute, the little one is also waiting for my gang leader to ask the Admiral, what happened to my Flying Dragon Gang to provoke the Admiral to recruit the Admiral?" ”

"............" Li Tianyang was speechless, this was also a small pimple in his heart, as the rule-maker of the Ryukyu Pirate Zone, he had promised that as long as the gangs in the Pirate Zone abided by the rules set by the Hongmen, their Hongmen sailors would not invade the Ryukyu Pirate Zone, giving these gangs a free place to make a living.

However, until now, when the Hongmen forces have gathered, the Flying Dragon Gang has fought with other gangs at sea to the death, and there are still rules formulated by the Hongmen to send troops to the Hongmen.

"Have you not counted in your hearts what you have done?" However, a battalion commander under the command of Hongmen stood up and smiled gloomily at the envoy of the Flying Dragon Gang: "On the twenty-ninth day, in the naval battle between you and the Swordfish Gang, a sea ship flying the logo of my Hongmen was killed by you, and there were fifty-four treasurers and sailors on board, and only twelve people were in stock!" ”

"No way, my Wyvern Gang has never done anything like this!" The Wyvern emissaries categorically denied that although they did chase and kill the remnants of the Swordfish on October 29, they did not remember any merchant ships passing by.

Out of fear of Hongmen and a correct understanding of their own gang, the Flying Dragon Gang vigorously expanded its territory and attacked other gangs, but in fact, at the beginning of the army, Zheng Zhilong and Yan Siqi were sternly told not to harass and attack the sea ships with the Hongmen logo.

Of course, even Zheng Zhilong and Yan Siqi themselves would not believe that they had made such a big fuss this time, Hongmen would really let them develop like this and become Hongmen's henchmen. But they always have the idea of what if, it's good that they have been doing nothing in the past ten years, and they haven't seen them do anything untrustworthy, so after the battle, the Flying Dragon Gang would rather tie up their hands and feet than let Hongmen grab the handle.

But they forgot that if they really wanted to catch the handle, how could they guard against it.

"Don't believe it, do you? I can get Haike himself right now and confront you! "This battalion commander is aggressive and looks reasonable.

It's just that Li Tianyang is curious, why hasn't he heard about this matter!

Not long after, the battalion commander summoned a middle-aged man dressed as a merchant with a dark complexion and obvious living at sea all the year round to confront the envoy of the Wyvern Gang.

In the eyes of the Flying Dragon Gang Envoy, Hongmen has obviously found the handle, and it doesn't matter whether this handle is real or not, but the Flying Dragon Envoy still argues with reason and carefully interrogates the seafarer who suddenly appeared.

However, what the envoy of the Flying Dragon Gang didn't know was that the seafarer recruited by Hongmen was really true, but he didn't hang the Hongmen logo at that time, and he happened to pass by that sea area with a large number of goods smuggling, and was bumped into by the Flying Dragon Gang who were chasing the remnants of the Swordfish Gang.

was originally a smuggler, and the first thing this maritime merchant who did not pay the protection fee and hung the Hongmen logo was naturally to run away when he encountered the pirates.

Who would have thought that this run would be pursued by the Wyvern Gang who had been killed as the remnants of the swordfish, and finally became a victim of the fierce artillery fire of the Wyvern Gang.

"If that's the case, the little one can call the shots and make double compensation to this sea lord, which is the price we paid for accidentally injuring them!" The envoy of the Flying Dragon Gang was still unwilling and opened his mouth to offer compensation.

"Hmph, the goods can be compensated, but how can the lives of the thirty or so sailors who died in the sea be compensated, and where will the face and rules of our Hongmen be placed!!" didn't need Li Tianyang to speak, the battalion commander who stood up to stir up trouble immediately pushed back viciously.

The matter ended unhappily, and the Flying Dragon Envoy went back to report the news worriedly, and after Li Tianyang came down, he asked the people around him: "What is the name of the battalion commander who came out today?" ”

"Xiang Shenggao."
