Small Landlords of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 152. 187. The Japanese Bandits
One hundred three-story ships and more than 1 Japanese pirates were hunting whaling. Suddenly, many warships appeared, and the Japanese pirates on board didn't care at first.

They go south to hunt whaling every year, and they have encountered people from the Central Plains a few times. Generally, as long as they attack some gold and silver, those people from the Central Plains will ignore them.

"My lord, those Central Plains people want our fleet to stop whaling immediately, and also want us to hand over all the weapons on board!"

In addition to Queen Himiko, Japan is divided into adults (nobility), households (common people), and animals (slaves).

The people on board are called adults, and they must be the powerful clan of the Wa Kingdom, which is equivalent to a prince in the Central Plains. They not only have their own private soldiers, but also keep slaves in captivity.

"Baga, I, Junichi Watanabe, will never hand over my weapon."

"Master Uejing, do you think we need to hand over our weapons?"

"Master Watanabe, I think it is better to hand it over. I heard that there is a very powerful adult in Zhongyuan. The sea area we are in is the sea area under the jurisdiction of that adult."

With a hundred buildings and boats, the adults of the Japanese country are not so powerful, and they can support tens of thousands of households and slaves.

Tai Shici took the Yaksha and approached the Japanese pirate fleet. The vice-admiral sent envoys, but the Japanese pirates never responded, and Tai Shici couldn't bear it anymore.

"General Qi, the deputy general from the mission has returned. Most of the Japanese pirates are willing to abandon their weapons and surrender, only a few are still stubbornly resisting..."

The general hurriedly ran onto the deck. He did not expect that in such a disparity in strength, there would be Japanese pirates who dared to resist.

"Order to let the fleet approach, those who surrender their weapons will not die, and those who resist will be killed!"

The naval fleet is all steam warships, even if the opponent wants to escape, they can't escape. Tai Shici, as the commander, did not sit in the middle army, but charged at the forefront of the fleet.

"Baga, you Central Plains child, you are rude to Yamatai Kingdom, the great Lord Watanabe, I must report to Her Majesty the Queen, to your Central Plains Emperor...Emperor...to resist..."

Before Junichi Watanabe finished speaking, a feathered arrow pierced his throat. Tai Shici handed the bow and crossbow to the guards beside him, pulled out his halberd and waved, "Kill without mercy!"

"Kill without mercy!"

"Kill without mercy!"

……

Starting from the vanguard army, it spread throughout the entire naval fleet. The drums roared and the flags danced wildly, and the first wave of heavy crossbow attacks carried by battleships began.

The one-meter-long javelin crossbow arrows shot out ten times in a row. The crossbowman holds the Yuanrong crossbow. The Yuanrong crossbow is specially made for the fleet. The cutting head is specially made. The arrow is either poisoned or filled with kerosene, and there are three barbs and crosses.

Heavy crossbows are lethal to small building ships. A two-story ship carrying 50 people has a board thickness of only 10 mm, and javelins and heavy crossbow arrows can easily penetrate it.

Once the hull is punctured by a large number of javelins, the leaking place cannot be repaired at all. In the river basin, you can still dive to survive, and if you dive in the vast sea, the only way to end is to feed the sharks.

The cut head of the Yuan Rong crossbow was poisoned, and the Japanese pirates who were shot would have vomiting, numbness, body stiffness and other adverse symptoms, and there was no possibility of surviving after falling into the water.

The cutting head is equipped with a cross hook, and the arrow stem is hollow, filled with kerosene and nitric acid. When the fast arrow is hooked on the bow or sail of the ship, it will ignite a fire when it encounters sparks.

"Kill, don't keep a single one!"

Tai Shici had never seen Japanese pirates before, and he was not a bloodthirsty person, but after the officer returned to the battleship, he told about the scene where Watanabe Junichi and others entertained him, which completely angered Tai Shici.

These Japanese pirates not only often went south to hunt whaling, but also plundered women in the Central Plains along the coast. The people in the coastal fishing villages were often bullied by them.

The woman who entertained the lieutenant general was born in a small fishing village in Langye, Beihai County. When she was 14 years old, the fishing village was attacked by Japanese pirates. Except for women, the elderly and children were killed.

The men were transported to Yamatai as slaves. As for the fate of those women, they were worse than the army prostitutes in the Central Plains. This woman survived only because of her vengeance.

After Vice General Ma promised to avenge her, the 17-year-old woman jumped into the vast sea. When Vice General Ma came back, he clamored to destroy Yamatai.

When Tai Shici heard about the fate of those Central Plains women, he decided to bury all these Japanese pirates in the sea, and would never let any one go.

"Sir, we surrender, we are willing to hand over our weapons..."

Uejiro escaped the first wave of attacks and saw the corpses of Shimoto next to him. Those animals had already "swimmed" in the sea.

Crying father and mother begging for mercy, Tai Shici stood expressionless on the Yaksha, Vice-General Ma heard Shangjing Cilang's call, and beckoned the soldiers to hand over a big bow.

Seeing the actions of Vice Admiral Ma, Shangjing Cilang hid behind the cabin and was so frightened that he pissed his pants. Vice Admiral Ma had no mercy at all, so he shot another arrow after he missed an arrow.

"Order the fleet to keep a distance, and sink any approaching ships with catapults, and don't let a pirate or a ship go."

The azure sea water was dyed light red, and a group of passing sharks smelled blood and were heading towards the battlefield.

Tai Shici heard the patrol fleet's report and hurriedly let the fleet disperse. In case of a collision with the lone ship, the Mengchong battleship would not be able to withstand the collision, and the sharks in the water would not be able to tell who was the Japanese pirate and who was the Central Plains soldier. .

There were more than 2 Japanese pirates with only a hundred ships, and they were all wiped out in less than an hour. Even the three whales hunted by the Japanese pirates became sharks' dinner.

There were more than a dozen swarms of sharks in a radius of a hundred miles. After the meal, the sharks smelled the smell of blood and swarmed in. Many marine carnivorous fish also came to participate in the feast. Taishi Ci's fleet did not return until dark.

"Good kill, tell General Tai Shici that all Japanese pirate fleets will be sunk. The sharks in the sea haven't eaten for a long time. This time we will treat them as good people."

When Wang Hao received the letter from Tai Shici, he did not blame Tai Shici for killing, but strongly agreed with Tai Shici's approach.

As expected, these Japanese pirates are dogs who can't change and eat shit. It's fine to enter the coast of the Central Plains to hunt whales, but they even robbed the women of the Central Plains. This is beyond Wang Hao's bottom line.

Wang Hao not only asked Tai Shici to expand the search area, but also asked Huang Zu to lead the navy to go north. Except for the soldiers and horses reserved to resist the Sun family, the other fleet went north to the East Bay and then crossed the East China Sea for expedition.

This time is different from the last voyage. Wang Hao's goal this time is very clear, which is to destroy the island nation of Yamatai. Even if Queen Himiko knelt down and begged him, Wang Hao would not waver at all.

After Huang Zu's expedition, Tai Shici encountered seven whaling fleets of different sizes at the junction of the East China Sea and the South China Sea. As long as he saw the sign of the Japanese kingdom, Tai Shici would kill them without even saying hello, and would never let them go. Over any Japanese pirates.

"My lord, General Zhao Yun said that Cao Hong from the Cao camp led an army south from Pengcheng, maybe..."

Hearing that the soldiers had returned, Wang Hao was still calm and waved his hands to make the soldiers retreat. The Northern Expedition started today, and Wang Hao planned to fight without declaring it this time!
