Daming pirates

During this battle at Daya Bay, Yu Xiaotian dug out a lot of useful information from the pirates, convicting many wealthy gentry of being complicit in thieves.

So after he took control of the Pearl River Estuary, he confiscated a large number of long dragon boats and various small boats in the Pearl River Estuary area. Yu Xiaotian ordered the navy to deploy a group of sailors to specialize in operating these small boats. Each boat was similar to the long dragon boat.

Small boats each carry a squad of infantry or sailors.

On some of the strong and sturdy ships, Yu Xiaotian had some light deck guns, such as small-caliber Fran cannons or three-pounders, removed and installed on the bows of small boats, or they simply made do with the ugliness.

Some infantry tiger crouching guns were mounted on the bow.

A total of two battalions were divided into eight detachments. Each detachment was exactly one infantry company or marine company. In addition, hundreds of sailors were temporarily transferred from the fleet. They sailed upstream from the Pearl River Estuary and entered the Lion Ocean.

Accompanying it is a fleet of twenty warships, which provide material support and supplies to these detachments in the main channel of the Pearl River at any time. In addition, it also serves as a force to deter them.

Yu Xiaotian's actions did not ask for instructions from the Guangzhou Prefecture, nor did he say hello to the local officers and soldiers stationed here. It was tantamount to trespassing directly into the hinterland of the Guangzhou Prefecture. Such an action undoubtedly immediately attracted the attention of the Guangzhou Prefecture.

The local government resisted, so the prefect of Guangzhou immediately sent people to go to sea by boat to find Yu Xiaotian, and ordered Yu Xiaotian to immediately stop such actions, withdraw his soldiers and ships from Shizi Yang, and only allow them to operate outside Lingding Yang.

.

Of course Yu Xiaotian was very dissatisfied with the attitude of the Guangzhou magistrate. He immediately flatly rejected his request and told the visitor to go back and send a message to the Guangzhou magistrate, saying that by doing so, he was paying tribute to the current emperor.

Under the orders of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, we came here specifically to suppress pirates in Guangdong and Guangxi.

Nowadays, many pirates have been reduced to small groups and have hid in the dense waterways outside Guangzhou. Since they are suppressing bandits, they naturally have to eliminate all evil. In addition, during the battle at Daya Bay, he detected that dozens of local large households were secretly

There are many pirates hiding in the house, and they must be captured.

Therefore, his actions do not need to be influenced by the Guangzhou magistrate. The inviter should go back and tell the Guangzhou magistrate that this matter is within the scope of his rights, so that Guangzhou cannot interfere, unless someone in Guangzhou wants to protect these collaborators.

So if this is the case, he Yu Xiaotian will report to the court and impeach him.

The prefect of Guangzhou and other officials in Guangzhou were so angry that their noses turned crooked after hearing Yu Xiaotian's reply. They are the parents of Guangzhou. When did it take Qiu Ba's turn to take care of the local affairs in Guangzhou? Even Yu Xiaotian

If they find out that someone is a traitor or pirate who has sneaked into Guangzhou to hide, they should take care of it.

So the prefect of Guangzhou immediately sent people to find Yu Xiaotian, and asked Yu Xiaotian to hand over to the Guangzhou government the people he had detected, the hiding places of the pirates, and the list of pirates. The Guangzhou government would send troops and

The police officers investigated and arrested him.

After hearing this, Yu Xiaotian sneered at their request, saying that this was a secret. Once it was handed over to Guangzhou, it would cause leaks, and the pirates would be transferred in advance, and people who knew the traitors might also get wind of it.

He was fleeing or hiding stolen goods, so he would not bother the Guangzhou officials and he would handle it himself.

After hearing Yu Xiaotian's reply, the Guangzhou government was furious and immediately wrote a bullet to impeach Yu Xiaotian for interfering in local affairs without authorization and harming the local gentry and people.

In addition, they also went to Xiong Wencan to complain, accusing Yu Xiaotian of being arrogant and domineering, not paying attention to them, the local officials in Guangdong, and meddling in their local affairs without authorization.

But Yu Xiaocai doesn't care about these things. Now he is holding the gun barrel in his hand. Does he care whether they are happy or not? After the eight detachments were sent out, they immediately dispersed into the waterways as dense as spiders, with the local leading party

Lead the way for them, and they won't have to worry about getting lost in the water.

In just a few days, Yu Xiaotian's men defeated more than 20 castles belonging to wealthy families. To say that these wealthy gentry families in Guangzhou are quite powerful, because there are many pirates and river bandits in the Pearl River Estuary area.

The place is not peaceful, so each county will ask the squires to come forward, and each township will form its own regiment training to unite the townships to protect themselves. Therefore, the local villages and villages usually have some village warriors stationed to defend themselves against the invaders.

Now Yu Xiaotian's men aggressively rushed into their territory as guest troops. In the name of suppressing bandits and arresting those who collaborated with the thieves, they ordered some well-known local gentry to open their doors and arrest people.

How could these people dare to open the door and be restrained when they were scared? So they quickly sent people to Guangzhou to complain and complain, and at the same time formed a village to protect themselves and closed the gate of the village to try to prevent the soldiers of the Yu Jiajun from attacking their Zhuangzi.

These wealthy gentry families were really short of money, and many castles actually purchased firearms such as cannons and guns. As soon as the soldiers of the Yu family army appeared outside their villages and castles, they immediately fired off cannons again.

He fired his gun again and fired arrows continuously in an attempt to block Yu Jiajun's search.

This immediately angered the soldiers of the Yu family army. They were acting under orders to catch the traitors according to the plans, and they also wanted to sweep away the pirates hiding in the area. These country warriors actually dared to shoot arrows at them again.

He is setting off cannons again. This is simply asking for death.

So the leading company commander gave an order, and his soldiers immediately began to fight back or attack. Under the salvo of guns and artillery, in front of the sharp spears of the Yu family army, how could these village soldiers be their opponents? One or two

When they came face to face with each other, a piece of Xiang Yong on the wall of the village was knocked down, and the remaining people were so frightened that they did not dare to show their heads again.

As a result, under the fierce attack of the Yu's army generals, one village fort after another was captured by the Yu's army. The Yu's army generals, who looked like tigers and wolves, broke into the village forts and immediately arrested people and killed many people.

Some local gentry that no one dared to provoke easily were carried out like a dead dog. Then they confiscated all the valuables in these guys' homes and put them on boats and transported them back to the main waterway.

on the big ship, and then transferred out of the Pearl River Estuary.

And Yu Xiaotian was not idle outside the Pearl River Estuary. He sighed a lot in the Lingding Ocean. Wen Tianxiang had been here before. At that time, the Southern Song Dynasty was in a state of broken mountains and rivers. Yu Xiaotian could understand and felt for it.

After the defeat of more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty in the Battle of Yashan, they felt so tragic and solemn that the little emperor committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea.

Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty is also swaying with wind and rain, but unlike the original historical trajectory, the Ming Dynasty will not fall to the Eight Banners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, but will fall to him sooner or later at the hands of Yu Xiaotian. He is not a Mongolian barbarian. The reason why he wants to overthrow the Ming Dynasty

, is to bring the Chinese nation to a new height and stand on top of the world from now on, so he doesn't feel any guilt here.

After sighing, Yu Xiaotian immediately ordered his men to move to the Hong Kong Island area, directly using the later Victoria Bay as his military port, and sent troops to land and occupy most of the later Hong Kong area, including Hong Kong.

Islands such as Lantau Island and Lantau Island are also under his control.

As long as he controls this place, no matter when he wants to rebel in the future, the city of Guangzhou will become his flesh and blood, and he can take it whenever he wants.

After arriving at Victoria Bay in later generations, it was only called Tsim Sha Tsui or Zhongmen in this era. There was only a small fishing village in the bay, and some time ago, it was just a temporary hiding place for a small group of pirates.

In the place where I live, there is no trace of the prosperity of later generations.

But I have to say that the British are still very discerning. This is indeed a very good natural harbor. The water in the bay is wide and the water quality is very good. The water depth is more than ten meters. Not to mention that there is no problem with berthing the current ships.

In later generations, there would be no problem at all in docking giant ships of 100,000 tons.

Therefore, the British managed this place to become the largest port in Asia in later generations. It was indeed a far-sighted approach. Unfortunately, now that he is here, the British will never have the chance to come here again. The surname here should be changed to Yu in the future, although he

There has been no real uprising yet, but it is not impossible to capture this place.

So after he took control of this area, he sent someone to inform the Guangzhou government. At the same time, he sent someone to say hello to Xiong Wencan, saying that he had already reached the Pearl River Estuary this time when he went south, but he needed to be here.

, temporarily finding a place to station as his temporary anchorage and logistical supply port to support his continued march south.

The Guangzhou government is now gnashing its teeth at Xiaotian and is unwilling to let him occupy this area, so the reply is uncertain and orders Yu Xiaotian to withdraw from this area and not to disturb the local people.

So Yu Xiaotian did not fall out with them, and directly suggested that in this case, he could move directly into the Pearl River Estuary and stop at the dock in Guangzhou City to rest. He hoped that Guangzhou would provide him with corresponding supplies. Otherwise, he might

If he doesn't control his soldiers well and causes trouble when the time comes, he can't be blamed.

When the Guangzhou government heard this, the officials were so frightened that they almost peed. Although they were furious, they did not dare to let Yu Xiaotian lead tens of thousands of soldiers and march directly to the Pearl River outside Guangzhou to station themselves. These more than ten thousand arrogant soldiers

Warriors, people eat what horses chew, and I'm afraid they consume a lot every day.

If Guangzhou Prefecture were to bear all the responsibilities, I am afraid that in a few days, Guangzhou Prefecture would be completely destroyed. In addition, so many warships and soldiers would swarm into the Pearl River Estuary. By then, would Guangzhou Prefecture be able to live peacefully?

Really? So as soon as Yu Xiaotian made this request, the Guangzhou government immediately softened.

The prefect of Guangzhou immediately changed his mind and allowed Yu Xiaotian to temporarily station in the Tsim Sha Tsui area and temporarily station troops in that area as his supply base for the next period of time.
