215 The Return of Diving (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
After Wu Jie and the others succeeded, they immediately moved towards the south at full speed, which was discussed with Wu Daofu and them in advance. After only half an hour, when they arrived at the agreed sea, a lone warship stopped there, waiting for Wu Jie and them to arrive.
"Okay, you kid, this time it's a great achievement!!" Wu Daofu boarded the "Maria" sea ship where Wu Jie was, stroked the side of the ship, which was more than a foot wide, and said with emotion.
"Hehe, with our special combat team out of the horse, isn't this a matter of being captured?" Wu Jie smiled proudly, then thought of Yamamoto who contributed more effort next to him, and hurriedly said: "Of course, this time Yamamoto and their team are also deadly, if they didn't attract the attention of everyone in Macau City, our operation on the dock would not have been so smooth!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes, I didn't misread you!" Now that he has returned from victory, Wu Daofu will naturally not be stingy with the praise on his tongue, and praises Yamamoto and them with satisfaction.
"Not only that, in addition to attracting the attention of the Francophiles, before retreating, they also brought back a lot of harvest from the exchange, a total of more than 5,000 taels of gold, more than 2,000 taels of silver, and a lot of other valuable jewelry!" Wu Jie has always been an upright person, since he made a promise to Yamamoto and them, he naturally will not forget to add points to their actions in front of Wu Daofu at this time: "It's just a pity that they suffered heavy losses this time, seventy-five soldiers, and only twenty-seven of them came back alive!" ”
"......" Wu Daofu was silent, and then spoke again: "You have done a good job this time, and I believe that the young master will give you the treatment you deserve after you go back!" ”
"Thank you, sir!" Sacrificing so much, isn't this what Yamamoto is for?
"Okay, let's keep up the good work and finish the task at hand first. Wu Jie, you are now following the route we came from last time and return quickly! In the end, thinking that although things were going very smoothly here, but the people who traveled a hundred miles were half ninety, and before the three sea ships were transported back, Wu Daofu and the others could not be careless: "The fleet around me has been sent out to clear the surrounding sea ships for you, so that they will not meet you and fall into the eyes and ears of the Francophone people!" ”
"So, if there are red fireworks in the sky in one direction, remember to go around that direction, you know?" Wu Daofu then began to arrange the next stage of tasks for Wu Jie and them.
"Got it!"
"Then what should we do with the captured foreign sailors this time?" Wu Jie suddenly asked another question.
This attack on the sea ships not only captured three sea ships, but after the sea ship battle, Wu Jie and his team also captured more than 20 foreign sailors who were greedy for life and surrendered.
"Remember, your actions this time are top secret, and even the fifteen ships we sent to cover you only know how to transport you to one place, but they don't know what you are going to do, let alone that you have plundered Macau! Therefore, we don't need to take prisoners, and at the same time, on the way back, if there is a non-Hongtang sea boat, you must also remember to deal with the aftermath! Wu Daofu looked at Wu Jie coldly and said murderously.
"Yes!"
Next, those foreign sailors who surrendered, except for Wu Jie who selected two people to be the instructors of the training team members to manipulate the sails of Western sea ships, the rest of the people were naturally secretly executed by them and thrown into the sea.
For this operation, even the Hongtang Department sent fifteen ships led by Wu Daofu in addition to Huludao, and on the Bengang side, most of the fleet led by Wu Shu was also dispatched, which was used by Li Tianyang to drive away the maritime merchants and seamen on this remote route.
Although Macao is located in Guangdong, it is not too far from the Penghu Sea, so the Hongtang patrol is not abrupt so far, and Wu Shu can use the excuse of clearing the pirates to fill the mouths of the team members and outsiders.
However, compared to the caution when they came, when they returned home, they were escorted by several fleets, but Wu Jie and the others were traveling day and night in the direction of Bengang!
"Not good, captain, there's an unknown ship ahead!" Suddenly, on the "Maria" ship, the member in charge of the lookout guard shouted.
Subsequently, according to the tips of the team members, Wu Jie quickly found this target: "What the hell, didn't you say that whenever there is movement around, it will send us a signal?" ”
"Full speed ahead, catch up with me!" Without thinking for long, Wu Jie gave the order.
In the course of two or three days, the special combat team members felt the performance of the three sea ships in their hands, but in the matter of sailing, because most of the Daming sails were hard sails, while most of the Western sea ships were soft sails, the manipulation was more complicated, and Wu Jie and the others still couldn't figure it out for a while. But with only the excellent performance of Western sea ships, Wu Jie and the others quickly approached this opponent.
"Count you unlucky, you shouldn't have appeared at this moment!" Wu Jie looked at the sea ship that was gradually being chased by them, and muttered to himself.
"Be ready for battle, leave no room alive!" For the first time, the Hongtang warriors received orders that were more like pirates' style of doing things, and they naturally had no resistance to this after seeing them in life and death.
It is also said that this group of people is unlucky, if they can be found by the Hongtang sea ship responsible for opening the way to drive them away, they can still stay alive, but the sea is vast, although Hong Tang scattered twenty or thirty sea ships in this sea area, but still missed this smuggler who deliberately walked on this remote route in order to avoid a few hundred taels of silver tolls.
Since there is a difference in speed between sea ships, the fate of this group of smugglers was also arranged the moment they met Wu Jie and them.
The experienced special combat team members did not use all their strength in the face of a group of smugglers who only walked the sea and occasionally made a cameo appearance as pirates, and the more than 100 smuggling sailors on the entire smuggling ship were wiped out by the special combat team members and 27 Japanese warriors.
"I didn't expect the performance of these foreigners' sea ships to be so good, no wonder Tianyang will try his best to get them!" Easily catching up with the smuggling ship that fled for his life, Wu Jie manipulated the rudder of the "Maria" and said excitedly.
I thought that there was something precious on the three sea ships that made Li Tianyang tempted, so he sent their special combat team to risk exposing their identities and turning their faces with the Macao Franc machine, and they also wanted to get their hands on the three sea ships.
But who would have thought that after Wu Jie and the others got their hands on the three sea ships, they rummaged through all the team cabins, and except for some supplies, they didn't find anything else worthy of their Hongtang's excitement at all, except for these three strange ships that obviously surpassed the Da Ming Fu ship and the sand boat.
"But even if we get these three sea ships back, the people are not stupid, how can they not recognize their sea ships? So what's the use of us avoiding our eyes and ears and driving the ship back? Wu Jie thought of another question, frowning bitterly and thinking about what Li Tianyang was planning!
Today's two watches, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the little brother is out of the house, naturally he also wants to reunite with his family, but he can't go home, so here I wish everyone a family reunion and happiness!
