Chapter 765: Encounter Japanese pirates

After receiving Marin's reply, Charles II, Duke of Geddes, was very excited. But immediately, he remembered the tragic experience that Marlin had flickered on the issue of West Friesland. So, Charles II sent a letter to Marin-you go abroad ...

According to Charles II, pretending to be sick is not insurable. Even if Marin pretended to be sick in bed, the messenger of Maximilian I could come to visit him at the head of the bed. In this way, it is easy to be seen through. Once this is the case, Marin will have to send troops at the emperor's call. Therefore, it is best if people are not in the country.

In addition, Charles II, Duke of Geddes, also feared that Malin would trick him. Therefore, he made a request to allow Marin to go abroad for at least 3 months in the spring of 1507, and not to stay in the country. In this way, Emperor Maximilian I could not find him, and he could not order the Grand Duchy of the North Sea to send troops.

After receiving the letter from Charles II, Marin also had to praise the other party for being cautious. Of course, because Marin had long planned not to blend in this war. Moreover, the order documents for Schwarz to lead more than 20,000 soldiers to accept the employment of John II, Duke of Cliff, had already been signed. Even after going abroad for three months in the spring, it has no effect on the war situation. As it happens, Marin also plans to take a look at America in the spring. For North America in this era, Marin is still very curious. So, Marin wrote to reply Charles II, Duke of Geddes-agreed to go abroad for 3 months after the end of spring cultivation, and promised to leave the European continent ...

After receiving the letter of commitment from Marin, Charles II, Duke of Geddes, was finally relieved-as long as Marin left the European continent, things would be much easier. Moreover, he is not a fool. If Marin does not leave, he will not do it ... But even so, he still does not know that he is still being fooled by Marin ... Seeing Marin who has experienced various contract traps in later generations It's full of octopus ink ...

In the previous life, before graduating from university, in order to improve the level of self-protection of graduates and avoid falling into contract traps, Marin had participated in the training of contract traps held by the school. The little tricks played this time are basically a small part of that training and later social experience ...

...

At the same time, Columbus's fleet finally arrived here on Sheliao Island at the mouth of the Keelung River in the north of the island ....

Prior to this, Columbus had tried to land on the west coast of Taiwan to investigate. However, the local indigenous people are fierce. When Columbus's fleet arrived at the mouths of Dajiaxi and Tamsui to see what happened, a group of indigenous people came out of the jungle with wooden sticks, bamboo poles, and bows and arrows before they could wait for the anchor.

Columbus was dissatisfied and wanted to lead people to fight against the natives, but he was persuaded by Kong Tai. After all, they came to find a place, not to do it. Besides, they are not prepared to deal specifically with the indigenous plate armor. If you die in order to fight with a few indigenous people, you will lose the reward ...

So, Columbus grievously ordered people to put away their anchors and continue to sail along the island until they reached Sheliao Island and Tuopanyu around the Keelung River ...

"It should be here. This big island called" Dongfan Island "seems to have a big island at the estuary of this river." Columbus judged by comparing the sketch given by Marin for a long time.

While Columbus and Kong Tai were intensively discussing whether it was a destination on the west side of Sheliao Island and Tuanpanyu Island, suddenly there was smoke rising from Sheliao Island, what seemed to happen ...

"What's going on?" Columbus asked.

The first officer climbed the mast and looked at it with a telescope. He returned to Huihui to report:

"It seems that a small village on the island was attacked by a group of pirates!"

"Pirates? Are there many people?" Kong Tai asked cautiously.

"Not many, just like dozens of people, a boat. The pirates seemed to be holding a slender scimitar, but they were fierce ... And, they were all very short ..." The chief mate replied.

"Short stature ... slender scimitar ... is it ... Japanese pirates?" Kong Tai wondered.

"No matter what he is, as the regular navy of the Grand Duchy of the North Sea, let us teach these pirates!" Columbus was idle and bored, much like finding someone to fight.

After thinking about it, Kong Tai said:

"Alright, let our musketeers go out ..."

Then, Wessett, the commander of the musket team who demonstrated the muskets to the Daming officials in Guangzhou before the ship, summoned 100 sailors who would use muskets on board, and landed on the land with muskets and ammunition. At the same time, Kong Tai also let 40 sailors hold a spear, and also boarded the land, split into two shares, guarding the sides of the musketeer.

But these musketeers, the first thing after going ashore is to ignite the flaming rope first ... This is the trouble of the musketeer-it takes some time to prepare ... At the same time, the musketeers need to be separated from each other by 1 M, to avoid the fire rope accidentally igniting the gunpowder of people around.

When 100 matchlock gunmen ignited the matchsticks, wrapped them around their left arms, and clamped their heads to the matchlock guns, a large group of people ran from the east of the island ...

This group of men and women, old and young, looks like refugees who have escaped ... In fact, they are indeed refugees who have escaped ...

Behind them, a group of more than 30 pirates are chasing this group of people ...

This group of pirates is very funny, most of them are only one and a half meters tall, and most of them are still hoops. Because of their short legs, they failed to catch up with the group of refugees who had escaped ahead of time ... but this group of people was very fierce. They waved slender Japanese swords and used unfamiliar Chinese Shout out loud:

"Your flock of fat sheep, dare to run away ... When we great warriors catch up with you, all will die to death ..."

About 50 refugees who escaped in front, led by a group of elders, originally planned to escape to the southwest and planned to swim to the island. After all, it is not far from land. The water is better, and it is possible to escape to the land alive. As for the bad water, it is destiny ...

However, the group of people who escaped suddenly discovered that three large ships seemed to be docked on the west side of the island, and there were more than a hundred people on the ship, lined up and seemed to be ready to defend the enemy ...

"Is it the soldiers of the court? How could they appear on Dongfan Island?" The old man thought across the distance, wondering.

But at this time, he had no time to consider. Because the gangsters with short legs behind are already catching up ...

So, the old man made a decisive decision:

"Run west with me, the soldiers and horses of the court may be ahead!"

The spirit of the refugees was greatly boosted, and they rushed to the formation formed by the sailors of the North Sea country in the west of the island ...

The old man only found out that these people were not the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Because these people are all blond ghosts ...

"Uncle Lao Gen, who are these people in front of you?" A young man asked anxiously.

The old man named "Uncle Laogen" thought for a moment and said without hesitation:

"No matter who they are, let's ask for help. If no one saves us, we might be killed by the group of pirates ..."

"It makes sense ..."

As a result, when approaching the battle of the Beihai sailors, the leading old man ran and screamed for help in the more standard Daming mandarin ...

Weissett looked at Kong Tai and asked:

"Master Kongtai, how should we respond?"

Kong Tai frowned, but quickly made a decision:

"Help these refugees, but, forbid them to attack this battle! Forget it ... let me say it ..." Kong Tai thought of it after finishing his order-these sailors did not understand Chinese.

So, Kong Tai shouted to the group of refugees in Marin-speaking Mandarin:

"Don't attack the formation, come from the side!" After the call, Kong Tai kept gesturing at the refugees.

The leading old man understood, and also understood Kong Tai's gesture, and quickly said:

"We're crooked to the south!" After that, he personally ran towards the side of the battle. And the refugees supported each other and ran to the side of the battle with the old man ...

Without the shelter of the refugees, a group of more than thirty little daggers with swords suddenly appeared in front of the sailors of Beihai ...

Looking at the group of funny little dwarfs, many sailors couldn't help laughing out loud ...

"Don't look down on this group of short men, their martial arts are very powerful!" Kong Tai shouted loudly. But he heard from Marin that a little devil in Japan called Japan. Although the warriors in their country are short and have strange walking postures, the martial arts are very good.

At this time, the group of pirate pirates also found the sailors of Beihai and started to discuss:

"Fujita Jun, why are there a group of ghosts in front of us? Do we want to withdraw?" A Japanese pirate leader hesitated.

The short samurai called "Fujita Jun" self-channel:

"Do n’t be afraid, although there are hundreds of people in that group of ghosts, we are all the most powerful warriors in the country. Although we have few people, we can fight several people at once! So, princes, rush with me! "This group of warriors are the warriors of Japan's westernmost Lingzhi country and fat front country. Hirosaki included the famous Japanese foreign trade center Hirado Island, but now the pirate king Wang Zhi is only a 5-year-old little P boy and has not yet operated Hirado Island as his home. Therefore, the current state of Feiqian has not yet become a maritime trade fan ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ is just an ordinary fan country. Of course, because of the geographical characteristics, the government leader of the former Emperor Feiqian Shaozhen sent this samurai leader named Fujita Kijiro to take a pirate ship to the southern Ryukyu country to see if there was a chance to start. After all, before the rise of the great pirate Wang Zhi, many trades between Japan and Daming were changed by the Ryukyu nation. And Ryukyu countries have become rich because of maritime trade. This group of warriors in the fat front country wanted to go to the ordinary Ryukyu Kingdom to rob. Only, accidentally, was blown to the island by the sea breeze. Seeing that there is a village on Sheliao Island, I simply landed to make an autumn breeze ...

"But, Fujita, what is the iron pipe they hold? Why is it facing us?" A samurai asked suspiciously. Although the Warring States period in Japan has already begun, it has not been in contact with the Portuguese and no iron guns have appeared, so the samurai did not know the firearms ...

"Tell him! I want to fight ten! Warriors, rush with me! Spread it!"

Wissett saw more than thirty fierce dwarves holding knives across the distance rushed to a distance of 60 meters, and it was almost ready to shoot. So he raised his command knife:

"Preparation for the first row--"

"Fire!"
