Chapter 1517? ╭(●｀?′●)╯??Annie Sails to the West

The Hangzhou city of the Ming Dynasty surrendered to the Li family, and when the capital of the Ming Dynasty fell, when the Chongzhen Emperor died, and when people in Jiangnan were in panic and everyone was in danger, they directly surrendered to the Li family's fleet and hung Li The word banner.

In fact, at the very beginning, after the Li family fleet entered the Qiantang River, they frightened the few Daming navy in the Qiantang River water village and the turbulent government on the spot, so that they refused to believe It was the fleet of the Li family, and they refused to believe that there would be a princess named 'Zhu Yu' in the fleet.

So, after a certain lawless little girl ordered to tear down the outer wall of the navy's water village with shells and threatened to bombard the city, that person who didn't know whether it was the county magistrate or the prefect finally had to be willing to believe The Li Family Fleet had no choice but to go out of the city to the pier to greet the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, the second daughter of Emperor Chongzhen who died for the country, and announced that Hangzhou had surrendered to the Da Ming faction where the princess belonged, which was under the name of the Li Family Fleet, and she was willing to obey the princess. orders and so on.

Little Anne didn't care about what those Ming officials were thinking, or what they were going to do, and she didn't want to care about it, because after handling the goods and simply replenishing, she was already preparing to do something of her own. It's time to get down to business.

"Expel the intruders and restore Daming?"

(???.???)????

"No!"

o('^')o

"Big Beard, I don't want to play the boring game of regaining lost territory and driving out thieves with you!"

(lll￢▽￢)

Therefore, when the bearded captain found Anne, the admiral of the fleet, and wanted her to send troops directly, that is, send some of the sailors on board to go ashore with muskets and cannons to defend the princess and Hangzhou City, she flatly refused.

"That's too troublesome. He's going to sail to the west now, so he doesn't have time to play with you here!"

o('^')o

The reason why Annie stayed here in the East China Sea for so long was to eliminate the Japanese pirates who came to the island's house, in order to show how powerful they are to a certain hateful sister Li, and to prove that those scoundrels left them behind. It's just so wrong in Hangzhou.

Well now, the Japanese pirates are over, and the Japanese kingdom has signed an exclusive trade agreement with the Li family's fleet. Now it's time for her to go south to the west, and then find the hot sister Li Huamei to make fun of her. How could she continue to delay? Here in Hangzhou, accompany these boring guys to play that boring war game?

Moreover,

She is not from Daming, and Daming is still alive, so what does it matter to her, Chief Admiral Anne?

Moreover, she is not familiar with the spicy Changping princess Aimee Zhu!

The other party didn't say a word to her during the few days on the boat. She kindly rescued them, gave them food and drink, and even sent them to Hangzhou. Go up and help them more?

"Great Admiral!"

"If you can't do anything, it's fine. Of course, the subordinates don't have to force it. But now, I'm waiting for the Li family's fleet to have strong guns and strong soldiers. It's a good time to make contributions. How can I give up eating because of choking? To do the act of giving up the basics and chasing the last?"

Obviously, the bearded captain is extremely disapproving of sailing to the west now, because sailing to the west can be done at any time, but now, once you miss the great opportunity in front of you and come back when the situation completely collapses, it will really be a disaster. It's over!

But there is no way, the Li family fleet is not up to him, he has to convince the little girl in front of him, otherwise, if the other party gives an order, no matter how unwilling they are, they will have to hoist their heads and turn around and leave.

"Anyway, it's not possible!"

o('^')o

Annie turned her face to the side and rejected the other party's proposal, because she just didn't want to play that kind of war game. Besides, she really didn't know how to form troops, she would just order people to go charge.

"The Admiral..."

"Admiral..."

With a fierce bearded face, the captain surnamed Li hurriedly turned to the other side, pleading with that vivid and tangled expression, and almost knelt down on Anne's head and cried out loudly .

"Well……"

(?~?)

"Well then, ten ships is indeed a bit too much. There are too many people on the ship and it will be troublesome to replenish. They simply leave you with a few thousand musketeers and five ships. The freshwater fortress city and the defenders inside are also too much." It’s all under your control, and you have to find a way to recruit crews for the ten big ships parked in the port. They only take Xiang Feihu and four other ships to Nanyang, what do you think?”

?(????)?

Annie's decision to go to the West must not be changed, no one can persuade her, she just does her own way and is so stubborn!

However, thinking about bringing ten super battleships and so many musketeers is really a big trouble, and those musketeers stay on the ship is a bit of a mess, and there are very few opportunities to use it, so she decided :

In addition to the necessary sailors and gunners on her own five ships, those useless musketeers and land battle cannons piled up in the warehouse were all transferred out, and it was almost enough to leave a thousand or eight hundred people for emergency. up.

In that way, she can set off with light clothes, bring more supplies, and then last longer at sea, without having to worry about which port to go to for supplies all day long.

"this!"

"But……"

The bearded man was stunned. Originally, he just wanted to ask Annie, the admiral, to stay and help out, but now, according to her, he wanted to directly leave the fleet and some soldiers to him, and let him take full command ?

Thinking that he could directly lead five full-staffed super battleships, and manage the entire fortress in Xiaoliuqiu, his heart couldn't help beating wildly.

You know, there are still ten of the same giant warships and more than 10,000 elite musketeers in Danshui Fortress, and there are also a large number of firearms and cannons, and even steel factories and weapon workshops. If it is under his control, God knows how far he can use those resources?

"Come on!"

(*?～?*)

"I am now announcing: Beard, you are the admiral of the Li family's fleet stationed in the East China Sea!"

??(??￣?￣)????

"Now Daming and the sea area of ​​the Wa Kingdom are under your control. You have to do business and make money here, and protect our trading ports. That's about it!"

(*^▽^*)

"You can think about other things yourself, let's make such a happy decision!"

ヾ(⌒?⌒*)?

Annie made so many ships and people out, not to protect those ports and go to war, she was just preparing for herself to play happily and do whatever she wanted.

Now, since she has finished harming this place and there is no hostile fleet here, of course she must go south to find that guy Li Huamei and harm other places.

As for things here...

I'll leave it to this bearded man for the time being, and these guys can do whatever they want, as long as the minimum task she assigns can be completed.

"yes!"

"Follow orders!"

"Admiral, don't worry, if you can't manage this land well, and you can't guard the port, then Li will wring his head off and return it to you!!"

Hearing what little Annie said, he knew that he had become the admiral of the Li family stationed in the East China Sea, and he was fully responsible for all matters here. Then the bearded man was shocked, and he quickly understood what he could do with this, so he directly stood up straight. He knelt down on one knee towards their chief admiral, and promised with a solemn military salute.

With so many resources, he naturally has the confidence to make the Li family caravan bigger and stronger. It is nothing more than patrolling the route, attacking other caravans and some pirates who are running around and committing crimes. That is not too difficult. .

For the rest, he still has enough strength to do something else, even more than what the admiral said!

"OK!"

ε=(′ο｀*)))

"Hurry up and make arrangements. The Xiangfeihu has four other warships that I want to take away. Except for the sailors and artillery, you should send those useless guys away first. They don't need them when they go to the West." There are so many hands!"

(?ˉωˉ?)

Anne actually discovered it a long time ago. The cannons of these super battleships are too many and too powerful. If there are ten ships, a full line of 1,200 cannons can be fired at the target. Is it really too insane, and also a bit too wasteful?

And if it is reduced by half, there are still six hundred cannons that can fire in one direction at the same time, which seems to be enough to deal with threats in most cases.

So, seeing that the bearded man in front of her was so reluctant to go to the west with her, Admiral Anne, she had no choice but to divide the fleet altogether. She only took the flagship Xiangfeihu and four other warships to the south to find Li Huamei and those Guy can.

"Here!!"

Seeing that Admiral Anne had made a decision, the bearded man didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly agreed, and then got up excitedly to get busy.

...

On March 19th, the 17th year of Chongzhen, the thief Li Zicheng captured Beijing.

It is reported that Emperor Chongzhen ordered all concubines in the harem to commit suicide. Empress Yi'an Zhang and Empress Xiaojie Zhou committed suicide. Later, Emperor Chongzhen hacked and killed his two daughters with his own hands. Princess Zhaoren was killed. The arm that blocked the sword was cut off and survived.

Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in Meishan and died. The eunuch Wang Chengen, the scholar Fan Jingwen, the royal censor Li Banghua, the household secretary Ni Yuanlu and other ministers all went to die in peace and died for the country. The Ming Dynasty declared its demise.

However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Ming Empire was basically declared dead after the death of the emperor's family, most of the places that could be harmed by thieves were the northwest and northern Zhili, including the capital, while Jiangnan and Nanzhili and other places As long as they haven't been poisoned for the time being, there are still many clans in Nanzhili and they are all ready to move, so a certain newly appointed Admiral Li in the East China Sea started to act.

After he transferred thousands of marines from the five warships that Admiral Anne wanted to take away, he directly took over Hangzhou City by force, and added some additional sailors to strengthen supplies, even on the five ships. The warehouse was filled with a large amount of urgent supplies such as silk tea and porcelain purchased from Hangzhou. After nearly seven or eight days of tossing, the preparations were finally completed.

On April 8, the 17th year of Chongzhen, in the Qiantang River outside the port of Hangzhou, five huge ships were lined up. Admiral Anne Hastur of the Li Family Fleet was finally going to lead five flying scissor super battleships. The formed fleet sailed to the West.

"Admiral Li!"

"Our family doesn't understand. Aren't you the Admiral of the East China Sea of ​​the Li family? Why did you let that little Fanbang girl take away those five giant gunboats?"

"Look, so many cannons scare me to death. If we can keep a few more cannons, the burglars and slaves won't be scared out of their wits?"

Watching the five giant ships in the Qiantang River in the distance begin to lift anchor and sail and slowly accelerate towards the East China Sea under the influence of the current and wind, an old eunuch who stood in the farewell crowd and watched the fleet leave, finally Resisting some pity, he whispered to the bearded captain, who is the current admiral of Li Jiadonghai.

"Eunuch!"

"She is the chief admiral of our Li family fleet, and I am just the admiral she appointed to station in the East China Sea. Let alone want to keep those five ships, as long as she gives an order, our remaining five ships and these people will be Everyone has to get out!"

Looking at the other five giant ships moored in the deep water bay not far from the Hangzhou wharf, and looking at the elite soldiers standing nearby with long knives and flintlock guns on their backs, everyone The bearded captain sighed.

"ah?"

"Can't withdraw! Absolutely can't withdraw!"

Hearing that the bearded man wanted to withdraw the boat and soldiers, the old eunuch panicked resolutely.

You know, here in Hangzhou, they are not familiar with the place of life, and the only people they can trust and rely on are the fleet and soldiers of the Li family in front of them. Once the people of the Li family withdraw, I am afraid that some people will not Know how to change the way to eat people like him and the princess!

He has lived for so many years, what kind of intrigue has he not seen in the palace? Therefore, he is not stupid, he knows who to trust and who to rely on at this time.

Now that Daming is dead, all he wants is to take good care of the princess, don't let the princess be bullied by outsiders, and then he will have a good death. How dare he have too many other thoughts?

"I didn't say I would withdraw!"

"but……"

Looking at the Li family's fleet that was getting farther and farther away, and the speed was getting faster and faster, the bearded man couldn't help feeling a little regretful, and his eyes began to be a little dazed.

To be honest, if Daming hadn't died suddenly, I'm afraid he would definitely not beg the admiral for those things, and he would definitely not be rejected by the other party and stay. In that fleet sailing south to the west and continue to travel across the world, right?

"That's all!"

"Elder-in-law, let me tell you that tomorrow, my fleet will also set sail for Xiaoliuqiu. The round trip may take about half a month or a month. I will leave tomorrow before dawn, so you don't have to come see us off."

Thinking of the fortress in Little Liuqiu and the ten unoccupied warships, Beard felt that he had to make arrangements in advance.

Perhaps, he can transfer two-thirds of the skilled sailors and artillerymen in the current fleet, and then send some musketeers who have gone to sea with them to fight Japanese pirates to serve as trainee sailors and gunners. Just launch those ten warships and have a certain combat effectiveness?

In that way, he would have a full fifteen warships under his command, enough for him to do some crazy things he wanted to do.

"ah?"

"Are you going to Xiaoliuqiu?"

"no!"

"Our family and the princess will follow!"

Hearing that the bearded fleet was about to leave, the old eunuch panicked again, and hurriedly tugged on the bearded man's clothes, indicating that they would also leave.

"ah?"

"It's not like we won't come back. Besides, there are five thousand Musketeers from my Li family guarding here in Hangzhou. What are you afraid of?"

The bearded man felt a little baffled.

"we……"

"Our family wants to see your fortress and big ships in Little Liuqiu!"

"Just say whether you will give it or not!"

"this……"

"All right!"

"It's up to you, just go!"

"However, at Yinshi tomorrow, I'm going to board the ship and get ready. It's better to go earlier if you want to go?"

"Yin time?"

"Then don't wait until tomorrow, our family and the princess will board the boat in the afternoon!"

How could the old eunuch, who was afraid that the bearded man would leave him and others behind, and who was also frightened, dare to stay on the shore when the fleet was away?

Therefore, he hastily made a decision, and prepared to take the princess to the boat to wait early. As for what the magistrates would think after they left, how could he control so much?

"Fine!"

The bearded man felt that with the presence of a princess, many things he could do would be convenient. After thinking about it, he still didn't say no in the end.

but……

What he didn't know was that when he arrived at Xiaoliuqiu and Danshui Fortress, the old eunuch saw those huge ships and the fortified and exaggerated fortress city, the towering stone walls, the fortress and the countless shore-based cannons with terrifying muzzles. Say nothing and refuse to leave.

Of course, those are things for later. That kind of thing, the admiral of the East China Sea with the beard must have been unexpected, and the admiral of a certain bad girl who was cheering on the flagship of the Xiangfeihu to go to the West I don't even know.
