Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 368

[Chapter 368 Danger at Sea]

Jinghai County.

Seventy-two warships flying the flags of the five peaks quietly docked on the sea, forming a triangle.

On the front battleship, there was a bearded man with dry eyes holding a binoculars and staring at a row of wooden posts erected on the coast.

Dead bodies hang from these stakes.

They were the corpses of the pirates who attacked Jinghai County last time.

“Vice Island Master, we were defeated by King Yan’s army here. Their artillery was very powerful, otherwise we would not have been defeated.” Beside the man, a pirate pointed to the land.

During the battle at that time, he escaped by chance, went out to sea from Qizhou and returned to Wufeng Island, and brought the news to the island owner Lu Zheng.

At sea, Wufeng pirates are known to everyone, and everyone knows them.

Even the Liang family had to pay them the road money, otherwise they would not even think about trading by sea.

Over the years, the Wufeng pirates have robbed wherever they wanted along the coast.

Every time, it will return with a full load, and it has never been basically wiped out in one place, and several ships have been lost.

Even though the Liang family compensated them for the losses they suffered in the last attack, they still couldn’t swallow it.

Therefore, the island owner Lu Zheng decided to ask the deputy island owner Heishan to personally lead the fleet to Yanzhou.

“Vice Island Master, King Yan hanged the bodies of his brothers on wooden poles. This is a humiliation to us. We can’t just let King Yan off so lightly.” The square-faced man on the left side of Black Mountain said angrily.

His accent was a little stiff, he was wearing clogs, and at his waist was a very long knife that was only slightly curved at the head.

The middle part of the head is also shaved, and the shape is quite different from that of Songren.

Clenching his fists, he continued: “And if King Yan is really developing warships for maritime trade, he will definitely become our strong enemy in the future.”

Montenegro narrowed his eyes slightly.

He is very interested in this King Yan now.

Judging from the information disclosed by the Liang family, this King Yan can not only build many strange things, but also can build artillery and even warships.

If he hadn’t been convinced that he would praise the prince, he would have believed that he was a Europa.

But even so, he was dubious about the news from the Liang family, preferring to believe that King Yan had a Europa to assist him.

I also don’t want to believe that King Yan has such abilities.

But hobbies are just hobbies, and this time he came to Yanzhou for revenge.

King Yan killed so many people in his Wufeng Island, and humiliated their corpses so much.

He will make the coast of Yanzhou never peaceful.

Furthermore, as the Liang family said, King Yan earned so much money.

Yanzhou is also gradually getting richer, taking advantage of King Yan’s lack of navy to deal with them, if they don’t grab it at this time, when will they grab it?

Without a steady stream of loot to feed his desperadoes, they would eat themselves.

“Take Jinghai County and kill all the Yanzhou people inside.” Heishan said.

After receiving the order, there was a burst of loud cheers on the ship.

The pirates put down their small boats from the warships, and rowed towards the land with their matchlock guns on their backs.

At this moment, the movement on the sea has long been detected by the patrolling cavalry.

Bai Shang who was stationed in Jinghai County soon learned of the news.

After fighting the Battle of Jinzhou, he was sent to Jinghai County again.

Originally, he thought it was a boring errand.

Unexpectedly, a large number of pirates appeared again today, and the number was ten times that of last time.

“It’s really crazy. Haven’t these pirates been making trouble in the prosperous southeast coast? Why are they targeting Yanzhou now?” Bai Shang ordered the soldiers to gather and climbed onto the city wall.

Although the days in Jinghai County were boring, he was never lazy.

The soldiers on the city wall are heavily guarded, and thirty-six artillery pieces have sufficient ammunition.

Raising the binoculars, he looked towards the distant shore.

Sure enough, I saw many black spots on the sea.

“Immediately send someone to Yancheng to report to the King of Yan.” Bai Shang licked his lips, and there was unconcealable excitement in his eyes.

During the Battle of Jinzhou, the Bingzhangsi made many flintlock guns.

After he came back, all the soldiers under his command had finished changing their outfits, and they had been training for more than a month.

So, now he is not afraid of these pirates at all.

On the contrary, for him, this is an opportunity for meritorious service.

on the battleship.

Montenegro watched his deputy Yamada Kazuno go down to the boat on the sea.

At the same time, the crew on the warship was still dismantling the twelve cannons from the ship and sending them down with ropes.

There are a hundred guns in his fleet.

This was sold to him by the Frang robot, and he also gave them a matchlock gun.

The price is that they cannot plunder the merchant ships of the Frangbots, protect the interests of the Frangbots in Yizhou, and at the same time cooperate with the Frangbots to rob their opponents’ merchant ships.

It is because of these one hundred cannons and numerous warships that Heishan was able to run across the sea, frightening the sea merchants.

Since he was determined to avenge his crew this time, he decided to take down Jinghai County without hesitating to use artillery.

An hour later, six thousand pirates landed on the coast.

One-third of them held matchlock guns, two-thirds held long knives, bows and arrows, and they flocked to Jinghai County.

The people in the nearby villages had already fled to the county seat when they got the news.

The pirates were even more annoyed that they couldn’t find anyone in the village, and approached Jinghai County with howls.

“I didn’t expect this group of pirates to have artillery.” In the

telescope, the army of pirates was dragging twelve artillery pieces towards Jinghai County.

Bai Shang frowned tightly, which shocked him a little.

He thought that only Yanzhou could make artillery.

But now it seems that there are artillery in other places.

“Master Captain, how do we fight?” At this moment, a school lieutenant climbed up the city wall and asked.

“Shou, first let’s see what skills these pirates have?” Bai Shang said.

This gang of pirates is numerous and aggressive, and as the defender of the city, it is natural to use its own advantages.

When these pirates are exhausted, it will not be too late to catch them all.

“Coming to Yanzhou to plunder is really blinding your dog’s eyes.” Bai Shang sneered.

Half an hour later, the pirates arrived in Jinghai County.

They lined up outside the city and aimed their artillery at the gate of Jinghai County.

Kazuno Yamada looked at the head of Jinghai County with a cruel smile.

So what if King Yan had artillery? They also have.

And their warships come and go like the wind on the sea.

This time it was Jinghai County, and then they would wander along the coastline of Yanzhou, as long as they found a place where they could land, they would go up and plunder.

They do the same in other places in Dae Song.

“Brothers, there is King Yan’s fine wine in Jinghai County, and it has entered the county. I invite you to drink.” Yamada Kazuno shouted.

“Oh…” the pirates shouted wantonly when they heard the words.

They are all desperadoes, and what they like most is looting and massacre.

For them, this is what it means to be alive.

“Fire!” The enthusiasm of his subordinates was aroused, and Yamada Kazuno shouted.

Twelve cannons spit out flames and fired shells towards the gate of Jinghai County.
