On the Han River, the Han River Temporary Detachment Squadron, lined up in battle formation, quickly went upriver with the help of the steam engines of the Sea Shark-class battleships and the rows of the fast crabs.

The ships encountered along the way do not need to use weapons, and basically they can be easily intercepted by sending someone to roar.

Moreover, because of the strong rise of the Huaxia Kingdom and the original custom of emphasizing Chinese in this region, there is no need for interpreters to leave the cabin, and sailors who can only speak Chinese can complete the task.

However, after all, the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and the arrogant character of the Korean people in this land is almost the same as that of later generations, so occasionally a few thorns will jump out to show their superiority in ignoring the threat of artillery.

Seeing a rather large river boat with a displacement of more than 70 tons in the distance, a sailor on the fast crab held an iron horn and ordered loudly to get up, "Stop the ship and accept inspection." ”

The ship on the opposite side had no intention of stopping, and there was a burst of shouting, "Qiu Ba from there, do you know whose ship this is?" My lord can eat in North Korea and Houjin, so get out of the way, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around. ”

"Again, warn, stop the ship for inspection, or we're going to open fire."

"Oh, open the cannon, who are you scaring about, if you have a cannon, brothers, open the cannon jacket, open the eyes of the guy on the other side, let them know that this is not a place where they can play tricks on the Han River."

With the arrogant shout, on the deck of the riverboat opposite, three "cannons" covered by debris revealed their figures.

The sailors on the fast crab saw it clearly, and immediately reported to their superiors, "Report, the ship on the opposite side refused to stop, and also showed a large musket. ”

"Then give them a little color to see, let them know that we are awesome."

"Yes."

"Gun position No. 3, one shot, warning shot, put."

With a loud "boom", the armed merchant ship, which carried three "guns" and chose to resist, broke out with a loud bang about 10 meters in front of the bow.

Then a huge amount of water was splashed, and after the strong pressure of the water broke away the hard sails in the bow, the remaining water scattered almost the entire upper deck of the armed merchant ship, and drenched the gunpowder and fire ropes stored in the open air on the deck.

In the face of this shocking blow, the armed merchant ship, which had never known that there would be such a powerful weapon, finally couldn't stand up and obediently chose to surrender.

"Master Jun, don't open fire, the little ones are willing to stop the ship and accept the inspection."

The sailor with the tin horn snorted disdainfully and said, "Lower the sails and drop anchor." ”

When the other party had done so, the sailor felt unsafe again, and added, "Pour all the gunpowder on the deck into the river." ”

This added sentence, although it is not an order given by a superior officer, but it is also a sign that the sailor cares about his comrades.

The Huaxia Army formed by Chen Xin has always paid attention to giving full play to the subjective initiative of officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers, and encouraged everyone to play freely and take the initiative to work under the general framework of observing discipline.

The result was also good, the armed merchant ship on the opposite side was already frightened by the high-explosive bomb just now, and did not dare to slack off at all, and quickly summoned people to push the conspicuous barrels of gunpowder on the deck into the sea.

It was only then that the sailor made a gesture that he could lean on, and the fast crab he was on, which had just used an 88mm caliber gun to shoot a warning shot, pointed most of the ship's direct-fire guns at the armed merchant ship that had resisted, and slowly approached it.

A sampan with hook claws was placed between the two boats, and two thick hooks were fixed from both sides of the sampan to prevent the two boats from disengaging from the current.

The heavily armed marines, who had been waiting at the boarding gate for a long time, quickly rushed out, stepped on the sampan, and went straight to the enemy ship.

"Up, up, up, steady under your feet, speed up."

"The first squad occupies the high ground, and then assists the second squad in capturing the hatch and capturing everyone on deck."

"Third shift, follow me, occupy the cargo hold, and drive all the people in the bottom compartment out."

"Who is the owner of the ship? It's really bold, he dares to resist the inspection and fight against Wang Shi, isn't it the iron core of Houjin? ”

"The villain is the owner of the ship." At this time, not far away, a thin middle-aged man in Hanfu from Gaoli walked over with a servant trembling, begging for mercy, "I hope that a few military masters will show mercy, the villain is just an ordinary businessman, and he is really not a hardcore of Houjin."

The villain walks this channel all the year round, and has never seen the flags raised by the military masters, and when he heard that the ship was going to stop for inspection, he didn't react for a while, he really didn't mean to offend, and he hoped that the military master would be gracious. ”

Without the slightest hint of the domineering attitude just now, as he spoke, he reached back and took a palm-sized cloth bag from the servant's hand, ready to quietly stuff it into the pocket of the officer who took the lead in giving orders.

The officer leading the team pushed away the other party's hand and sneered, "Take back your broken money, whether it is the iron core of Houjin or not, someone decides." ”

The merchant immediately misunderstood, withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and continued to reach behind him.

The servants behind him, as if it were a small treasury, took out five identical cloth bags in a row, and presented them together, "A small meaning, not a tribute, invite a few military masters to tea." ”

The Marine Corps officer opposite: "What's the matter, I gave you face just now, right, I really want to buy the Huaxia officer!" Did you know that this is a felony? ”

The merchant was stunned for a moment, and repeated in disbelief, "You are a Huaxia officer?" The Chinese army has hit here? How is that possible? ”

The officer looked at the other party's expression, and said angrily and funny, "Listen to what you just said, I've been running on this route for a few years, why, I really don't know the military flag and national flag of my Huaxia country?" ”

Then a large number of middle-aged businessmen went up and down for a while, and asked curiously, "You can't even know about Huaxia, right?" ”

The merchant smiled, "I know, I know, the prestige of the Chinese country is far and wide, how can I not know it, it's just that I didn't expect that the military masters actually came here."

A few months ago, I heard that the Houjin side was arresting slaves and forcibly requisitioning grain and grass, and I heard that a big war was about to be fought.

At that time, I still thought that it might be another long-term bitter battle that lasted for more than half a year, and I thought that the military masters of China had actually fought here.

The villain really can't imagine that the Chinese officials and soldiers are mighty, and the villain worships and obeys. ”

The officer saw that the other party was also very proud of the army that touted his own army in this way, so he no longer made things difficult for the other party.

But the other party's resistance to the inspection just now has not been verified accordingly, if the other party is transporting prohibited items, then even if he has a good impression of the businessman, he can't easily let it go.

In order to avoid chatting and speculating, and it was difficult to start on the things that might tear his face later, the officer simply ignored the other party and just quietly waited for the results of the examination.

The middle-aged businessman was also accustomed to observing words and feelings, and after seeing the officer's joy, he restrained his expression, knowing that he couldn't talk more at this time.

Moreover, although he has been running the transportation on the Han River, there are other channels, and he can vaguely know something about the style of the Huaxia army.

It is clear that the welfare of the Huaxia army is extremely rich, and the cost of violating the law is also very great, and the other party can't look down on the little money he gave away.

So, he quietly handed the cloth bag wrapped in silver back to the servant behind him, and asked him to put it away.
