Chapter six hundred and ninetieth
Chapter 690: It's about to break out
The journey was calm and we arrived at Tianjin Port soon. A fleet here really planned to set off overseas. The fleet transported supplies including ammunition, weapons, etc. After all, the food source of soldiers stationed on the island now must rely on domestic supplies. This is why Jiang Lang must stabilize the country before leaving. If the political situation is controlled by Eunuch Qian and others, it is probably not that easy to replenish! For the soldiers on the island, it is a big problem.
Although most of the troops of the Komu Army have been annihilated, there are still some remaining naval forces, and there are many islands on the sea. They rely on these islands to rob the merchant ships and so on. Although the Ming Navy began to vigorously clear out, there are still many fish that escaped. These fish that escaped the net pose a significant threat to the Ming Dynasty.
As for the Ming navy, they were not as good as supplies or other things, and they were not as good as firepower. Therefore, they saw that the Ming fleet was hiding far away and would not fight with the Ming Dynasty at all, and they specifically attacked those merchant ships. However, the regular caravans of the Ming Dynasty, such as Murong Fu, who had connections with the imperial court, were guarded by warships. Even if they saw a large piece of fat, these Mumen Army did not have the courage to move, but this made it difficult for those small chambers of commerce. First, this civilian fortune
Firearms are not allowed to be loaded on the transport ship. After all, these firearms are all equipped by the imperial court, so they have no ability to counterattack when facing the Komu Army. Second, the chamber of commerce recognizes your existence, but the warships do not provide protection. The first transport ship of the Murong Fu Chamber of Commerce is very big. Second, most of the crew members on the ship are military sailors, so they are equipped with guns and other weapons on the ship. Third, there are warships escorts. The Ming Dynasty's current warships do not need to be very difficult to deal with small warships like the Komu Army.
It is not easy to see it at ordinary times, and in this way, the advantages are suddenly reflected. Even though there are many Komu troops on the sea, no one has the courage to touch these merchant ships. So they focused their attention on the small chamber of commerce ships, and many people lost a lot of money. Although some people reported it to the court, it is not easy to clear the Komu troops on the sea, and of course it is impossible to cover everything. In the case of no choice, these Chambers of commerce had to follow the Ming fleet, and if they didn't pay money to hope to provide protection for another warship, they would of course like the latter one the most. So these small chambers of commerce wanted to seek protection, so they naturally had to pay for it. For the court, there was an additional income of protection fees.
However, Jiang Lang and others were not riding in a chamber of commerce ship, but the imperial transport ships. In order to reduce the pressure and strength of the frigate, these transport ships were equipped with artillery. These sailors were all soldiers, so there was no need to worry about no one operating these artillery.
Because of this, the number of fleets guarded by the transport fleet is not very large. After all, at sea, the navy of the Komu Army, which was originally a powerful Gumu Army, is now like a stray dog, so there is no need to worry too much about posing a threat to these fleets.
However, this time, because Jiang Lang was on the warship, the fleet guarding was relatively more than a few more. Of course, according to Jiang Lang's instructions, it is strictly forbidden to disclose his identity. Although Jiang Lang is very famous, there are not many people on the warship who know Jiang Lang's identity, only the upper class knows it.
The vast fleet left the port and headed towards the other side of the sea. Jiang Lang stood on the deck with his hands on his back, watching the pier slowly disappearing from his own vision.
Because the wind was very strong on the sea, Zhu Yuqi and Zi Yu were still carrying the cabin, and only Zi Ling came to the deck to accompany Jiang Lang. After gently putting a cloak on Jiang Lang, then said softly: "Be careful not to catch a cold!"
Jiang Lang turned his head slightly, reached out and grabbed Zi Ling's hand, pointed to the gradually disappearing coastline in front of him, and said, "Why don't you look at it more? Maybe we won't go back in this life!"
Zi Ling just smiled slightly and then said, "If you can't go, you won't go. As long as you can be with you, it doesn't matter where you go!"
For women, the most important thing is not a country, but their own family. Her husband and children are everything about her and everything about her.
Feeling Zi Ling's feelings in her heart, Jiang Lang answered Zi Ling's words with his actions, reached out to hug Zi Ling, and let her lean against her body tightly. Then he sighed: "For me, you are everything to me!"
Zi Ling leaned on Jiang Lang, and the two of them remained silent.
Time passed slowly, and I had sailed on the sea for five or six days, but there was still a certain distance from the opposite side. Jianglang's destination was Kobe, so that he could avoid land. After all, this land route is more vulnerable to attack than sea routes.
However, things were not so smooth. On the sixth day, Jiang Lang was reading a book in the cabin. Suddenly, there was a rapid running sound outside, and there was a whimpering sound of horns.
This made Jiang Lang feel a little surprised, but he still knew that some emergency might have occurred, so he immediately said to Zhu Yuqi and others: "You just stay in the cabin, don't go there!"
Jiang Lang looked nervous, and Zhu Yuqi and others knew what should have happened, so they nodded and agreed immediately and gathered the three little guys together.
Jiang Lang walked out of the cabin at this time. The entire warship was busy now. The soldiers approached the side of the ship with their weapons, then hid behind the side of the ship, and observed outside through the round holes above. The muzzle near the battleship had been opened at this time, revealing the dark muzzle.
Jiang Lang frowned slightly, and the love in front of him showed that he and others should have encountered the enemy. This was completely like he was planning to fight, so he stepped into the captain's room at the top, which was also busy.
"What happened?"
Jiang Lang asked at this time, and then walked to the front.
When the captain saw that it was Jiang Lang, he immediately said: "Sir, I discovered the enemy, and there are about fifty warships, approaching us."
"More than fifty ships?"
Jiang Lang murmured, not expecting that the escaped navy of the Mu army could still concentrate on approaching more than fifty warships. This was really not easy. Regardless of what their purpose was, they had to deal with it now. So Jiang Lang asked, "How many warships do we have?"
"We have ten warships and thirty transport ships!"
The captain immediately said the quantity.
There are ten fewer ships in the number, and most of them are transport ships. Regardless of the fact that these transport ships are equipped with weapons, they are not as powerful and dense as warships, but it does not mean that they do not have the ability to counterattack. It would cost a lot of money to dispatch fifty ships to the enemy.
But now is not the time to sigh. Jiang Lang immediately said: "Let the warship be the best minister, blocking the enemy's attack, and the transport ship is behind. If an enemy ship comes over, concentrate firepower to eliminate these people."
After the arrangement was made, the captain immediately conveyed Jiang Lang's order, and then asked: "Do you want to transfer your wife and the others to the rear first? Once you see the exhibition, it will be very dangerous here."
The so-called guns and bullets have no eyes. If they are attacked, if there is any trouble for these three ladies, they will be in trouble.
However, he did not expect that Jiang Lang just shook his head, and then said: "No, just some ordinary enemies, there is no big deal, there is no need to transfer."
In fact, as far as we are concerned, this is the safest place, far exceeding those transport ships. After all, the protection ability of the warships I ride is absolutely first-class compared to those transport ships. It is a big difficulty for the warships of the Komu Army to break the armor of the warship. Besides, if you can wait by their side in person, you will feel much more at ease.
But of course, you have to win Jiang Lang's consent for what to do. Jiang Lang did not agree to transfer Zhu Yuqi and others, and the captain could not force it. He could only say immediately: "You have been fighting with the Komu Army many times. I wonder if you can give me some advice?"
At this moment, Jiang Lang certainly would not be stingy. With a wave of his hand, he said: "First follow my order just now, the warship is outside, and then stop the warships of the Koji Army!"
There are still people who will violate Jiang Lang's orders. The generals of those warships are like Jiang Lang. So according to what he said, they will adjust the entire fleet. All the warships were lined up outside the transport vehicle and acted as shields of the transport ship. It was clearly the same as if they wanted to pass here, they would step up from themselves.
As for the transport ship, they were not idle. In order to protect them, the warships acted as meat shields in front of them, but it did not mean that they would not do anything. The muzzle on the ship was raised high at this time, and they would still be able to support such things.
The fleets of the Komu Army slowly slowed down at this time. They also discovered that the Ming Fleet was in combat style, so the entire fleet began to approach very orderly, and did not rush over like a swarm of bees. After all, they knew very well what kind of hard bones the Ming Navy was. Although this was just a fleet of transportation and supplies, the ten huge warships outside were a very difficult character to deal with. They fired together to sink their warships! Such powerful firepower was impossible to win by relying solely on rushing, so these Komu Army warships had slowed down their speed.
