Become a feudal king from today

The sea surface in Jinghai County.

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

On the battleship at the front, there was a man with a beard and a man with dry eyes holding a monocular and looking at a row of wooden piles erected on the coast.

There were corpses hanging on these wooden piles.

They are the bodies of the pirates who attacked Jinghai County last time.

"Deputy Island Master, we were defeated by King Yan's army here. Their artillery was very fierce, 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, returned to Wufeng Island from Qizhou, and brought the news to the island owner Lu Zheng.

On the sea, everyone knows about the Wufeng pirates.

Even the Liang family had to pay them money to buy their way, otherwise they would not want to trade at sea.

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

Every time we basically return with a full load, we have never been completely wiped out in one place, and we have also lost several ships.

Even though the Liang family paid them money for the losses they suffered in the last attack, they still couldn't swallow this sigh of relief.

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

"Deputy Island Master, King Yan hung the bodies of our brothers on wooden poles. This is a humiliation to us. We cannot let King Yan go so lightly." The square-faced man on the left side of Black Mountain said angrily.

His accent is a bit stiff, he wears wooden clogs, and at his waist is a very long knife that is only slightly curved at the head.

The middle part of the head is also shaved, and the shape is completely different from that of Song Ren.

Clenching his fists, he continued: "And if King Yan is really developing warships to prepare for sea trade, he will definitely become our strong enemy in the future."

Montenegro narrowed his eyes slightly.

He is now very interested in this King Yan.

Judging from the information revealed by the Liang family, this King of Yan could not only build many strange and weird things, but he could also build artillery and even warships.

If he hadn't been convinced that he was praising the prince, he would have believed that he was a European.

But even so, he was dubious about the news about the Liang family, and would rather believe that King Yan had a European assistant beside him.

I don't want to believe that King Yan has such ability.

But interest is just interest. This time he came to Yanzhou for revenge.

King Yan killed so many people on his Wufeng Island and humiliated their corpses in this way.

He will make the Yanzhou coast never have peace.

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

Yanzhou is also gradually getting richer. Taking advantage of the fact that King Yan has no navy to deal with them, if we don't rob them now, when will we rob them?

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

"Take Jinghai County and kill all the Yanzhou people there." Heishan said.

Upon receiving the order, a huge cheer broke out on the ship.

The pirates put down their boats from the warships and rowed towards the land with their matchlocks on their backs.

At this moment, the unusual movements on the sea have long been detected by the patrolling cavalry.

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

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

Originally, he thought it was a boring job.

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

"It's so evil. Aren't these pirates always causing trouble on the rich southeast coast? Why are they targeting Yanzhou now?" Bai Shang ordered the soldiers to assemble and climbed onto the city wall.

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

The city walls were heavily guarded by soldiers, and the thirty-six cannons had ample ammunition.

He raised his telescope and looked toward the distant coast.

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

"Immediately send someone to Yancheng to report to King Yan." Bai Shang licked his lips, with excitement in his eyes that could not be concealed.

During the Battle of Jinzhou, the Ministry of War made many flintlock guns.

After he came back, all the soldiers under his command completed changing their uniforms, and they have been training for more than a month.

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

On the contrary, for him, it was an opportunity to make a mark.

On the warship.

Montenegro watched his deputy Yamada Kazuno get off the boat on the sea.

At the same time, the crew on the warship was still removing the twelve artillery pieces from the ship and hanging them down with ropes.

There were a hundred cannons in his fleet.

This was sold to him by the Francois, who also gave them their matchlocks.

The price is that they cannot rob the merchant ships of the Fo Langji people, protect the interests of the Fo Langji people in Yizhou, and at the same time cooperate with the Fo Langji people to rob their opponents' merchant ships.

It is precisely with these one hundred artillery pieces and numerous warships that Montenegro can roam the seas and frighten the maritime merchants.

Since he was determined to avenge his crew this time, he was determined to capture Jinghai County and would not hesitate to use artillery.

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

One third of them were armed with matchlock guns, and two thirds were armed with long knives, bows and arrows, and they poured into Jinghai County.

People in nearby villages had already fled to the county seat after getting the news.

The pirates were even more angry when they couldn't find anyone in the village, and approached Jinghai County howling.

"I didn't expect these pirates to have artillery."

In the telescope, the pirate army was dragging twelve artillery pieces towards Jinghai County.

Bai Shang frowned, which shocked him a little.

He originally thought that only Yanzhou could make artillery.

But now it seems there are artillery in other places.

"Master Captain, how should we fight?" At this time, a captain climbed onto the city wall and asked.

"Shou, first let's see what skills these pirates have?" Bai Shang said.

This group of pirates is numerous and menacing, and as a defender of the city, it is natural for them to take advantage of their own advantages.

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

"Coming to Yanzhou to plunder is really blinding your eyes." Bai Shang sneered.

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

They formed an array outside the city and placed artillery aimed at the gate of Jinghai County.

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

So what if King Yan has artillery? They do too.

Moreover, their warships came and went like the wind on the sea.

This time it was Jinghai County. Next, they would wander along the coastline of Yanzhou and plunder whenever they found a place where they could land.

They did the same thing elsewhere in Dasong.

"Brothers, there is King Yan's fine wine in Jinghai County. If it reaches the county seat, I will treat you to a drink." Yamada Kazuno shouted.

"Uh oh..." the pirates shouted wantonly after hearing this.

They are all desperadoes, and they love nothing more than robbery and massacre.

To them, this is the meaning of life.

"Fire!" Yamada Kazuno shouted as his men's enthusiasm was aroused.

Twelve artillery pieces spit out tongues of fire and fired shells towards the gate of Jinghai County.
