My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

  The huge Yizhou fleet has been traveling downstream along the Yangtze River, stopping and going for ten days. On this day, when Sun Dongxu stepped onto the deck, his telescope finally appeared the island called Ryukyu.

   There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and a stone fell to the ground in Sun Dongxu's heart. Their mission was finally half completed, and the next step was to find the deep-water port that King Shu mentioned.

"Qiao Shui, is there a pier that can dock in Ryukyu?" Sun Dongxu turned his head and asked a dark and thin young man. Because it was the first time he came to this sea area, the fleet was not familiar with this area, so when he was in Quanzhou, Sun Dongxu asked People pay to find a local guide.

  The young man named Qiao Shui said: "There is a dock where you can dock, it's just..."

   "It's just something, just say it." Sun Dongxu said.

"Actually, people in Ryukyu seldom come here. Those who come to this place are pirates who make a living by plundering. Because the imperial court manages the coast very strictly, they all like to go to Ryukyu, an unmanaged place. The people in the village People call it the Pirate's Nest, Captain Sun. Although your fleet is very powerful, all these pirates are familiar with water and are very difficult to deal with, especially the great pirate Wang Shijie. It is a business of plundering people from the southern seas, and their subordinates murder and set fires, committing all kinds of crimes, and most of the Kunlun slaves in the Tang Dynasty came from him."

   "Wang Shijie? How dare you use the name of the current Holy One." Sun Dongxu said angrily.

Qiao Shui continued: "He is more than audacious. All the merchant ships that pass by this sea area must be handed over to him to buy road money, otherwise the merchant ships will be robbed within a few days, and no one will be left alive on board, especially in the Guangzhou area. There are many merchants in the Western Regions, and none of them don’t know Wang Shijie’s name. His sphere of influence extends from Quanzhou to the South China Sea, and the pier in Ryukyu is also his. Others need to pay some things when they dock, such as food, cattle and sheep, and money all will do.

   Zeng Zhida came up from the cabin while the two were talking. He heard the conversation between the two, and shouted: "Your Highness said, gods block and kill gods, and Buddhas block and kill Buddhas. No matter whose territory this Ryukyu used to belong to, it is now the territory of our king of Shu. What kind of **** Wang Shijie is not convinced!" Just let him eat Lao Tzu's fist."

Qiao Shui smiled bitterly after hearing the words: "Lieutenant Zeng, don't underestimate these pirates. It's not that the government has never dispatched warships to destroy these pirates, but these pirates ran away when they saw the warships. They came back as soon as the warships left. It’s useless at all, the sea is so big, where to find them, until later even the government didn’t bother to take care of it.”

  The distant coastline is getting closer and closer to the fleet. Sun Dongxu said: "You don't have to worry about these, we can do it freely, you just need to lead us to a pier where we can berth in Ryukyu."

   Having said so much, Zeng Zhida and Sun Dongxu both looked determined, without any look of fear. A trace of helplessness flashed in Qiao Shui's eyes, thinking that they are really newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers. He didn't see how powerful the pirates were, but he still guided the fleet to the Ryukyu wharf after receiving money to help them eliminate disasters.

  The news that such a huge fleet sailed from the Yangtze River and anchored in Quanzhou had already reached the ears of the great pirate Wang Shijie when he was in Quanzhou. When he saw these big guys, he was frightened for a moment. Under his order, the pirates went into hibernation for a while, but he didn't expect it. The target of this fleet was actually his base camp Ryukyu.

On the pier, looking at the approaching fleet, Wang Shijie's face was extremely cold, and his triangular eyes narrowed slightly. He has been roaming the sea for more than ten years, and he is no different from a local emperor. No one dares to say no to him. But the fleet of the King of Shu didn't give him any face, and directly broke into his small kingdom.

   "What should I do? Your Majesty." Beside Wang Shijie is a short man with a half-bald head. The clothes on his body are also obviously different from those of Datang, but he is a Japanese.

Wang Shijie has been through the stormy seas for so long. He thought for a while and said: "Now you lead 300 ships to the sea area ten miles away from the dock to wait for my order. It's fine if the fleet just docks. But if they are against us, maybe we have to fight with them, mother, I have taken a fancy to these big guys at a glance, and they will all stay when the time comes."

Those who make a living at sea do not understand the importance of ships. When the fleet traveled along the Yangtze River all the way to Lingzhou, such a majestic treasure ship envied the eyes of countless people. Of course, pirate leaders like Wang Shijie were no exception. Having said that, he has already paid attention to these big ships in his heart, and after observing all the way, the fleet has less than 20 ships in total. For him who owns a thousand ships, it is not difficult to eat this fleet, of course , This is just his wishful thinking.

The pier is gradually moving forward, and you can already see many large and small sailboats moored in the bay. Sun Dongxu picked up the binoculars and looked at the pier. In his vision, two men, one tall and one short, were standing at the pier, facing Fleet pointed, the short man heard what the man said, turned and left.

  Sun Dongxu took a closer look. People coming and going on the pier were all carrying weapons, and some dark-skinned people were driven to carry goods.

   "Besides this pier, are there other docks?" Sun Dongxu asked again, the scene of the conversation between the two men made him a little uneasy.

  Qiao Shui said: "The grassroots don't know. We usually sell fish here, and we are not allowed to go to other places."

  Nodding his head, Sun Dongxu said to the messenger: "Let the warships form a ring formation at a distance of 500 meters from the pier, surround the transport ships in the middle, and put all the gunners in place on the outer side."

"Yes, Captain Sun!" The messenger arrived at the bow and began to raise the semaphore. After the semaphore ended, the ten armed steam treasure ships began to change their driving directions. When they were about to arrive at the pier, the formation of the fleet basically became a circle.

During the driving, Zeng Zhida and Sun Dongxu kept observing the movement of the pier with binoculars, "It seems that they didn't have any good ideas." Zeng Zhida put down the binoculars and said that many pirates at the pier had already hidden in the boat, and there were still some bows and arrows. The hand was also hidden in the bushes, but none of this escaped the eyes of the two of them, "If you want me to say, just shoot a few shots at the dock."

   "It's easy to use artillery, but you have to rebuild the pier after it's broken. Why bother? It's up to you Marine Corps. I'll support you at sea." Sun Dongxu patted Zeng Zhida on the shoulder.

   Slapped Sun Dongxu's hand away, Zeng Zhida grinned, "General Qin is really right, the navy is responsible for sentry, and the marines are responsible for death."

  Sun Dongxu was speechless when he heard the words.

  Although he complained like this, Zeng Zhida faithfully carried out the order. He said loudly, "Brothers, put the boat down, it's time to warm up."

Hearing this, the marines ran up from the cabin one after another, and Zeng Zhida asked the messengers to send orders to other warships. After a while, a mixed formation of more than a thousand musketeers and sword and shield soldiers took advantage of the eight-meter-long boat to the pier. cross out.

  Looking at the densely packed boats on the sea, Wang Shijie's scalp felt a little numb. He estimated the number of people coming, and he felt at ease again. After all, there were more than 2,000 people here.

Sitting on the boat, Zeng Zhida has been paying attention to the situation on the shore. According to Li Min's order, they will take over the island in the name of Datang after landing. According to Qiao Shui's information, this island is a gathering place for pirates. The people on the scene are definitely not kind, and if there is a disagreement, it will definitely be a war, "load the bullets, and wait for my order at any time." Zeng Zhida is wearing heavy armor and holding a horizontal knife in his hand. For him, this outfit is enough.

The water was rippling, and the fleet quickly arrived at the pier. Zeng Zhida jumped onto the dock first. Opposite him stood hundreds of menacing men, all armed with various weapons. The leader said: "Who are you? Are you here?" What are you doing?"

  Zeng Zhida scanned around, but did not find the man on the pier just now. He said: "We are the fleet of the King of Shu. We are ordered by the King of Shu to govern my homeland of the Tang Dynasty. Let your leaders come out and speak."

"Hahaha... King of Shu, King of Shu is a fart. Only our king has the final say here. Our king has said that if you stop temporarily, you will leave after rest. If you come to find trouble, you have to taste the knives in our hands. "The leader of the pirates said arrogantly, they are all murderers without batting an eyelid, and they are all a bit courageous.

  Zeng Zhida also has a straight-forward personality, he sneered and said, "That's nothing to talk about."

   "What a fart!" The leading pirate was very disdainful. He saw that most of the group of people were wearing short knives and carrying something like a stick, and he became more and more indifferent.

  Zeng Zhida glanced behind him, most of the people had already landed at this time, he drew out his horizontal knife and said: "Then let me tell you that from today on, the King of Shu has the final say on the wharf, and your king is nothing."

   Speaking of this, the two groups of people were already at war, because they had already learned about the situation on board, and some of the musketeers pointed their guns at the sea boats and bushes docked on the shore after landing.

   Spit out a mouthful of saliva, the leading pirate showed a ferocious look, and shouted: "Kill them, go!"

  Zeng Zhida snorted coldly, raised the horizontal knife at an angle, and shouted: "Fire!"

   "Bang bang bang..."

The musketeers behind Zeng Zhida pulled the triggers one after another, and blue smoke came out from the muzzles of the guns. The leader of the pirate stopped just as he took a step. There was a **** round hole in the middle of his forehead, and then he fell down slowly. And the pirates behind him fell down like harvesting wheat.

  Hearing the movement, the pirates in the pirate ship shouted and swarmed from the ship, but they were all faced with black guns...
