Haixi Ferry is located in the southeast of Zhang'an County.
This ferry is the entrance to the sea.
One by one, merchant ships are moored at the ferry entrance.
¡°These are all commercial ships. After all, some go to sea for fishing and some go to sea for business. The entire Haixi Ferry Pier is extremely prosperous, with people coming and going, and it is very lively.
This is also one of the reasons why Zhang'an County is relatively prosperous.
Zhang'an County not only has land, but also has a coastline. As the saying goes, it depends on the mountains and the water. Being close to the sea, there are countless fish resources, which is a profitable business.
At this moment, on the official road near the ferry, a group of people was coming quickly.
It was Wang Qi, Wei Xun and their entourage.
After the army arrived at Haixi Ferry, they temporarily stationed themselves in formation. Many businessmen, vendors, and people around him looked over, with alert and nervous expressions in their eyes. Facing the government officers and soldiers, these people were a little nervous.
After the army was stationed, Wei Xun took Wang Qi forward, directly to the ferry and came to the two docked ships.
The two large ships are merchant warships.
Each ship can accommodate up to six to seven hundred people, and two ships can accommodate a thousand people, which is more than enough.
As soon as Wei Xun arrived, he looked at the people beside the ship and ordered: "Inform shopkeeper Liu that I have something to discuss with him today."
"Mr. Wei, why are you here in person today, but what's the matter?"
Just as Wei Xun finished speaking, he heard a deep and resonant voice.
A burly, dark-skinned man came. This man's name is Liu Minneng, a businessman who sails on the sea. His merchant ships traveled across the north and south, reaching as far north as Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje and other countries in the north, and as far south as Ryukyu and other southern countries.
Liu Minneng is a big businessman at sea.
He has rich experience in sailing at sea, and he is quite influential at Haixi Ferry Terminal.
Wei Xun pointed at Liu Minneng with his finger and said: "King Qi, this is Liu Minneng, a big businessman in our Zhang'an County. He is famous for being bold and generous in Zhang'an County. The Japanese invaded Zhang'an County before, because shopkeeper Liu was not around, so they went to sea. We have gone. If shopkeeper Liu is here, he will definitely lead people to stop them, so that the Japanese will not be able to do evil."
Liu Minneng also knew that Wang Qi had arrived in Zhang'an County and had killed Li Shanquan and Zeng Zigong. He quickly clasped his fists and said: "Liu Minneng, a common man, pays homage to the King of Qi."
Wang Qi said: "Shopkeeper Liu doesn't need to be polite."
Wei Xun continued: "Shopkeeper Liu, King Qi is here to borrow your two warships, plus my own warship, a total of three warships, to take people out to sea and go to Kako Island to encircle and suppress the Japanese."
Wang Qi added: "Shopkeeper Liu, if you have any expenses, I will compensate you after you return."
Liu Minneng said hurriedly: "The King of Qi is destroying the common people, and he only uses boats. Why does it matter? But everyone in Zhang'an County should help the King of Qi, and there is no need to spend any money."
"What's more, we have long wanted to encircle and suppress the Japanese. But the Japanese have two very powerful masters, and the terrain of Kakoshima is complicated, so we have never gone."
"Even though we are familiar with the terrain, we don't have enough strength, so we can only watch. These Japanese often plunder at sea and should have been killed long ago."
Liu Minneng said: "Now that King Qi is here, it is a blessing for our people and for us maritime traders."
Wang Qi said: "I'm sorry to bother Shopkeeper Liu."
Liu Minneng said quickly: "No trouble, no trouble, this is what should be done."
Wang Qi said: "Get ready to set off."
"no problem!"
Liu Minneng nodded.
He immediately summoned his sailors, and they were all excited when they heard that they were going to encircle and suppress the Japanese. These people have long hoped to exterminate the Japanese. It's just that there has been no chance before. Now that the imperial court has sent troops, it would be best to go with them.
Wei Xun quickly made arrangements to bring in a large ship belonging to him. Wei Xun's ship is the only one at Haixi Ferry. It is the largest, most sturdy and extremely powerful warship.
On weekdays, the warship "General" never rests. It is rented out to people for business. During this period of time, it was not used, just to wait for Wang Qi to go to sea.
The three warships were in position, and everyone quickly began to land on the warships.
The two thousand soldiers Wang Qi brought were all soldiers under Yan Chixing. Most of these people were locals in Yangzhou and were familiar with the water.? You won¡¯t get seasick on the boat and you can adapt to it.
All the soldiers landed on the warships, and the three warships slowly sailed out of the Haixi Ferry. When the merchants and people on the shore saw this, they waved and shouted for a triumphant return, all of which were blessing Wang Qi.
Sailing on the sea is very fast.
Especially today, the wind is favorable. The warship is going to Kako Island in the southeast. The wind direction is just right. It is a favorable wind. In this wind direction, it is relatively easy for sailors to paddle and not too strenuous.
The journey of more than thirty miles will take a long time if you travel on foot. Even if you travel a little slower, half a day will be wasted. However, at sea, as this was an offshore area, the wind and waves were small, and the ship was sailing with a favorable wind, in less than an hour, it was close to the area where Kakojima is located.
Looking from a distance, Kakojima is dotted with many small islands. In addition, there are many dark rocks, which are the reefs around Kakojima.
Wei Xun has been here quietly several times, and he is familiar with the road conditions. In addition, Liu Minneng, as a merchant who sailed on the sea, was also familiar with the situation. The two of them cooperated and the sailing went smoothly.
When they arrived at the waters outside Kakoshima, Liu Minneng's two warships temporarily docked at sea.
This is used to cut off the retreat.
Whenever the Japanese want to evacuate, the soldiers on these two warships will be responsible for the attack. The men leading the troops were Chen Qinglong and Qin An, who were responsible for cutting off the retreat.
Wang Qi, Wei Xun, Liu Minneng, Xiang Peng, and Xia Houhu took the warship and continued to Luzi Island. There were no mistakes in the entire voyage, and they approached the Luzi Island landing ferry smoothly.
This situation was quickly discovered by the Japanese who were on sentry duty on the shore.
The Japanese quickly beat the drums, sounded the gongs, and even the soldiers blew the horns, so that the entire Japanese on Kako Island quickly gathered and began to make their way to the ferry landing on the shore.
Hattori Shimozaburo, Murata Kazuo, Takeda Katsuo and others all came in a hurry.
More than a thousand people gathered together.
When they arrived at the shore, Takeda Katsuo shouted: "Lord Hattori, please quickly send the order to the archers to prepare. Once they stop the ship and dock, ready to land, we will first shoot them with bows and arrows to kill some of them." Wang Qi¡¯s military strength.¡±
Hattori Saburo waved his hand and said: "No need, they want to land, let them land, we can win in one battle."
Kazuo Murata said: "What Hattori-kun said is true."
Takeda Katsuo frowned, it was definitely a mistake to be arrogant at this time. Takeda Katsuo was a little nervous and said quickly: "Master Hattori, don't be careless!"
Saburo, the subordinate, said coldly: "Takeda-kun, you don't need to say anything. As a warrior of the Japanese country, don't you think that you don't even have the courage to fight head-on? The son of my subordinate, Saburo, is not afraid of a battle and has the confidence to fight. Be sure to annihilate them here."
"well¡¡"
Takeda Katsuo sighed.
He looked towards the ferry and saw the majestic warship docked. Ladders were set up on the ferry shore from the ship, and many soldiers quickly disembarked along the ladders.
boom! boom!
At this moment, Takeda Katsuo saw two figures, jumped directly from the warship, and then landed on the ground.
Both of them are extremely tall and strong, one is Xiahou Hu and the other is Xiang Peng.
The two stood still, alert and defensive.
Waiting for the soldiers to disembark. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
