Crossing the Swordsman: Lin Pingzhi, the Swordsman of Evil

Chapter 510 Never show mercy to the enemy

Afterwards, the officials of the imperial court had no other choice but to act as temporary sailors, while Lin Pingzhi stood on the bow of the flagship, looking at Canglang Island not far away.

However, Gu Changfeng is a qualified helmsman. After his command, the Spanish flagship was quickly sailed to the pier of Canglang Island. With the anchor lowered, their mission was completed.

At this time, the female disciples of Yihua Palace on Canglang Island were cleaning up the corpses on the tidal flat.

As usual, for the corpses of these invading enemies, first all the useful things were collected and piled up on the beach, and then all their corpses were thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

Attracted by the smell of blood, some sharks soon gathered around Canglang Island.

Not long after the bodies of these Spaniards were thrown into the sea, they were directly dragged down and eaten by sharks in the sea.

For this kind of thing, the disciples of Yihua Palace are also used to it.

Lin Pingzhi escorted Gu Changfeng and others off the warship.

Afterwards, Gu Changfeng and the others were handed over to Liu Jing and Yue Lingshan, and they were put aside for the time being.

Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan went to the warships to look for survivors.

There are quite a few people hiding on these seven ships, five or sixty people.

But these people are priests, clergymen like priests, and cooks.

Then these people were escorted by the disciples of Yihua Palace.

Gu Changfeng and his party were guarded at this time, squatting in a shady place under the city wall.

After Cheng Zhi asked for instructions, he asked the disciples of Yihua Palace to put the captured people on the beach, and the muskets in their hands were already aimed at them.

Gu Changfeng stood up at this moment, stopped and said, "Your Majesty, please keep your hands!"

Hearing his words, everyone looked at him.

Just as Gu Changfeng was about to step forward, Yue Lingshan stopped him with a sword in his hand.

Lin Pingzhi said at this time: "Let him come over!"

After getting Lin Pingzhi's permission, Yue Lingshan released him.

Gu Changfeng walked to the side of these captured foreigners, Gu Changfeng said: "Since your honor has captured them, and this Spanish fleet has been wiped out by your honor. They are just some foreign monks, cooks, Your Excellency Why make things difficult for them? As the saying goes, 'Forgive others and forgive others'. Why not spare their lives?"

Lin Pingzhi held the sword with his left hand, looked at him indifferently and said, "Have you finished your sentence?"

Gu Changfeng replied: "It's over!"

Then Lin Pingzhi waved his hand and said, "Okay! Execution!"

After receiving Lin Pingzhi's order, the female disciples of Yihua Palace held muskets, pulled the trigger, and then fired bullets one by one, executing all the remaining Spaniards.Then everyone searched them and threw them into the sea.

Lin Pingzhi didn't have the Holy Mother to show mercy to the enemies. These people traveled thousands of miles to colonize.They have been part of the colonists since they got on this ship.

Treating foreign invaders is not chivalry, but war.

It is very foolish to show mercy to the enemy in war.

Although Lin Pingzhi has forgotten many things.But he still remembered that in his previous life, his chief had warned him more than once, if one day a war breaks out and you go to the battlefield, don't take it lightly just because your opponent is a child, a woman, or an old man.

He told them these new recruits seriously.A bullet from a child is as deadly as that from an adult.There are two secrets to surviving in war.

The first is never to go to war.

But if you have already participated in the war unfortunately, then remember the second rule, that is, don't show mercy to the enemies within your sight.

Because of your kindness, it will become a weapon to kill yourself.Because the enemy will take your life inadvertently.

Gu Changfeng's eyes widened and he asked, "Your Majesty, this is...!"

Lin Pingzhi sneered and said: "I just asked you to come here. I didn't say that I would let them go. Anyone who dares to invade Canglang Island will die! For the sake of you bringing this warship here for me, let's just say Spare your lives. Manager Cheng, give them a boat, give them two bags of dry food, and two barrels of water. Let them go!"

After receiving Lin Pingzhi's order, Cheng Zhi immediately made preparations.

Soon the food and fresh water sent to Gu Changfeng and the others were brought over and put on a captured boat.

And Gu Changfeng and others were also escorted by Liu Jing, Yue Lingshan and a dozen disciples from Yihua Palace to the boat.

Gu Changfeng and the others had no choice but to leave Canglang Island first and then make a long-term plan.

Looking at the boat going away, Qu Feiyan walked to Lin Pingzhi's side in confusion, and asked, "Brother, why did you let them go?"

Lin Pingzhi said: "They belong to the imperial court, and this person is Qianhu. If he doesn't come back on time, I'm afraid we will officially become enemies with the imperial court. The imperial court is very powerful. It’s better not to provoke us. But this person has also seen our strength, and I believe that after returning to the imperial court and telling us about our strength, it will not be long before the imperial court will send envoys to recruit us.”

Lin Pingzhi looked around and said to Qu Feiyan: "Okay! Now is not the time to talk about these things. We have won this battle. Now is the time to count the spoils."

Then everyone began to count the things seized this time.

This time Lin Pingzhi captured the entire Spanish fleet.

These Spanish ships were larger and stronger than the Dutch.

Lin Pingzhi also carefully looked at these warships, the name of the empire on which the sun never sets is really not built.The craftsmanship of shipbuilding can be said to be at the top level in the world.

Counting the two ships captured by the Dutch before, there are now nine ocean-class warships on Canglang Island.Enough to form a fleet to protect Canglang Island.

Seven Spanish warships were captured, each carrying forty guns.A total of 280 doors.

And there are countless shells and gunpowder.But what surprised Lin Pingzhi was that among these shells were not only solid shells, but also the earliest blooming shells.And the manufacturing level is very advanced.

He is a little self-deprecating now, after all, gunpowder was invented by the Chinese.In the end, it was these foreign devils who played tricks.

He knew that these shells were used to attack different targets.

Blooming ammunition is used to cover landing battles, or to attack land soldiers.

The solid bullets on the ship are more "penetrating" and are used to attack enemy warships in naval battles.

Moreover, these Spaniards have more money than the Dutch, and a lot of gold, silver coins, gems, and pearls were copied from their ships.

It took Cheng Zhi and Liu Jing a whole day just to count the gold, silver and jewels.Even in the end, the two of them became a little impatient, and directly classified them into categories, such as gold and silver, and went directly to the large scale.And pearls and gems, regardless of size, count directly.

Although Lin Pingzhi's family conditions are very rich, but this time the seizure also "blinded" his eyes.

Finally, after Cheng Zhi's counting, all kinds of gold wares, gold coins, and gold dust added up to 12 taels of gold, and all kinds of silver wares, silver coins, and scattered silver taels totaled 33 taels of silver.

There are more than [-] pearls of various sizes and more than [-] precious gemstones.Expensive coral products, silks, and brocades are ignored.

According to Cheng Zhi's preliminary estimate, if all these things were converted into silver coins, they would be at least 300 million taels of silver.Moreover, other enamelware, porcelain, pearls, gemstones, corals, etc. cannot be accurately valued. Three million taels of silver is already the most conservative estimate.

Now he has the idea of ​​wanting to be a pirate. After all, walking darts is just a hard-earned money, and he has to pay taxes to the court.Being a pirate is a worthless business, and there is no business that is more profitable than this.

Of course, he was just thinking about it.After all, it is impossible for a dignified rich son, a generation of famous heroes, to become a robber.
