The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 220 Coveting Jeju
Of course Huang Sheng knew what was good and bad, and accepted the kindness of his subordinates calmly, and brought He Xiang and Bai Mudan to live in the 'Guangning Ship'.

It was very lively here, and all the officers and soldiers cheered when they saw the Patriarch coming to be on the same boat as him, knowing that they would listen to his lectures and hear many stories again.

Time was too precious, Huang Sheng was not idle at all during the voyage, he took He Xiang and Bai Mudan to teach and educate people, and also conducted cultural examinations, educating his subordinates to be new soldiers with both civil and military skills.

After several days of sailing, the Huang family's huge fleet arrived at Jeju Island in North Korea. This island, known as the Oriental Hawaii, covers an area of ​​nearly 100 square kilometers and can farm [-] million mu of land.

Huang Sheng had already had bad intentions. If North Korea still formed an alliance with Jiannu as recorded in history, and after a few years of development, he would have enough strength to snatch this so-called gift of nature under the pretext that North Korea was an accomplice of Jiannu. Jeju Island as a punishment for Joseon Son Emperor.

The climate of Jeju Island can be clearly divided into continental oceanic climate according to seasonal changes. The temperature difference is large and dry in winter, and it is humid and rainy in summer. The annual average temperature is around [-] degrees Celsius.

The Huang family fleet brought enough fresh water and supplies, and there was no need to come to Jeju Island to replenish. Huang Sheng came here this time with malicious intentions. His navy is growing, so how can he turn a blind eye to such a good place, or he will be sorry for his descendants!

The large-scale Ming Shangguo fleet came, and Li Shen, a Korean navy stationed at Jeju Port, was in a panic. He didn't know the purpose of the Ming Dynasty sending so many warships here, and he didn't dare to meet with each other. He came tremblingly. Meet at the pier.

The Huang family's fleet was very unruly, ignoring their sovereignty, and went directly into their port. There were also North Korean troops stationed here and artillery facing the port. Unfortunately, no bloody one appeared, and they didn't even dare to shoot warning shots.

General Li Shen didn't dare to safeguard the dignity of the country, so he came to the "Guangning" in desperation to meet the commander of the Great Ming Dynasty, Master Huang.

Huang Sheng and Yan Yuese told General Li through an interpreter that the purpose of the Deming fleet’s voyage to Japan was to eliminate pirates. They would stay on Jeju Island for a day to replenish fresh water and fresh vegetables. They would let their soldiers visit the island for a day and then set off to fight tomorrow.

General Li Shen dared not agree to the Ming army's going to the island for leisure, and agreed to Master Huang's unreasonable request with a bitter face.Fortunately, he found that the Ming army was very friendly, everything was paid according to the price, and the soldiers who played on the island did not commit any crimes, so he finally felt relieved.

The Huang family will soon have a detailed map of Jeju Island, and the sand table of Jeju Port will also appear in the general staff room on Huangjiawan Island. Whether they capture this place in the future depends on whether North Korea surrendered and became a slave.

After taking a day off and getting what he wanted, Huang Sheng happily bid farewell to General Li who was overwhelmed by the flattery. The man got a diorama and two gift boxes of soap from Mr. Huang, and his bones were a few catties lighter.

The Huang family's fleet sailed eastward through the wind and waves. When approaching the waters of Japan's Goto Islands, the Huang's family's fleet encountered pirates.No, a wave of pirates unfortunately encountered them.

Huang Mingli spotted three Japanese Zhuyin ships from a distance in the command cabin of the tall flagship, and immediately signaled to the whole army.

He knew that the Patriarch didn't ask the 'Liaodong' to take part in the first battle, it was just the first voyage, so he began to confuse Zhao Shimin to command the flagship to attack to try out the new artillery, and he had plausible arguments, what's the point of shooting all the way to the target.

The target will not escape and it is impossible to fight back. It would be nice to have three large targets to test the guns. They are all alive, and it will allow us to experience the killing effect of the flagship.

Zhao Shimin is not a person who is afraid of things. It is rare for him to have the opportunity to experience actual combat. This time is once in a thousand years. If Huang Mingdao doesn't fool him into doing it, he will try to trick Huang Mingdao into taking the 'Liaodong' flagship to fight for a vote.

The two bad guys hit it off right away, anyway, the owner didn't order them to be spectators, since Huang Mingdao is the commander-in-chief, theoretically everyone and the ship should listen to him.

Zhao Shimin also put on his helmet and put on his armor, holding the flintlock gun issued to him in his hand, assuming a posture of shooting at any time.

He is an intellectual, the first boy in the Huang family to learn how to shoot a gun, and he manages the production of flintlock guns. He has a soft spot for force because of his unbearable experience of being bullied by Jian Nu.

Zhao Shimin has been practicing marksmanship diligently every day. No matter how busy he is, he has fired thousands of miniature rounds, and five guns were scrapped.

Huang Mingdao was happy to see Zhao Shimin eager to try, and said: "Director Zhao, you seem to be a little nervous! This is a naval battle, and it is more powerful than ships and guns. If we want you to shoot and fight, we don't have to." Hit it, just surrender!"

Zhao Shimin blushed, and quibbled: "Commander Huang, I'm not going to fight the enemy with guns, I'm going to cover your soldiers to jump into gangs to fight and rob the enemy's ships!"

"Hahaha, good job! Have fun! Let's take those little thieves and try to get a full reward!"

When they were bickering, the warships of the Huang family were not idle. The two Fuchuan-class warships 'Liaoyang' and 'Haizhou' and the 'Gaizhou', 'Jinzhou', and 'Fuzhou', etc. The reason why the eight straw boats were not spliced ​​with the fleet and drifted around the periphery was because they wanted to fight pirates to generate income.

The tall flagship was the first to spot the pirate ship, and sent a semaphore to inform that there were three enemy ships. After giving the order to encircle and wipe out the entire army, the ten warships of the Huang family, which were always ready to attack, immediately followed the plan, spread out the encirclement and rushed to the set target.

The three Zhuyin ships are not part-time pirates at sea, they are full-fledged professional pirates, and they are waiting on the route today to see if they have any good luck and encounter merchant ships coming and going.

When they found that good luck came and they couldn't stop it, they waited for the merchant ship, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, a huge sea ship appeared right in front of them, and the pirates were very knowledgeable, and they had never seen such a big ship.

The pirates were dumbfounded, this is not a good move!The pirates on the three ships shouted to each other and decided not to snatch the big guy they had never seen before, but they didn't appreciate it, so they approached at full speed with full sail.

The pirates understood right away, damn it!People are going to rob themselves!

They were not afraid, the enemy's ship was so big, as long as they escaped, they would not be able to catch up. The pirates calmly began to turn the rudder. They didn't know that there were rifled cannons on that big guy that they had never seen before.

What's more, they didn't know that due to their ignorance, when they wanted to take a closer look at the big ship, they had unknowingly entered the enemy's range.

The gunner of the bow gun of the flagship of the 'Liaodong' is Wang Lianfa, the chief banner officer. When he found that the 45-pound rifled steel cannon could reach the enemy ship, he decisively started to projectile at an elevation angle of [-] degrees. The solid iron ball whirled past an enemy ship and fell into the sea.

Just like this, the enemy ship broke a few cables and dropped a hard sail. The Zhuyin ship had only three hard sails. Although the Huang family's first shot had no damage effect, it successfully slowed down the enemy ship.

This one-piece chain ball and another kind of dumbbell-shaped cannonball are specially designed to deal with the mast of the enemy ship. After hitting the muzzle, they rotate forward. As long as they fall into the enemy ship, they will mess up the cables and mast.

At this time, the flagship was getting closer to the enemy ship, two twelve-pound rifled guns came into range, all three bow guns were fired, and the six conjoined iron balls were divided into three pairs and spun onto the deck of the enemy ship.
