The king is not the king, the minister is not the minister

The warm wind is blowing and the humidity is overwhelming.

In the past few days, the southerly wind has been blowing, the tide has returned strongly, and the sea fog is so thick that it is impossible to see the sky and the north at all in the morning. The weather at this time is most suitable for sneak attack.

The enemy bandits were loitering, and the fishermen naturally did not dare to go to sea. The officials in the county government lobbied one after another. Sure enough, many fishing boats were recruited, and the soldiers hurriedly loaded the boats and set off.

Yu Zhuo recruited craftsmen and used his method to work overtime to make the guns, and finally managed to make a batch before nightfall.After trying the power, the soldiers present couldn't help but be moved.

"Will these guns get wet?"

"Let's use local methods. I'm afraid it's okay today, but it's hard to say after a long time." Yu Zhuo looked to the east, "My lords, let's go tonight."

Those lieutenants look at me and I look at you, I don't know why they are so anxious.General Huang was a straightforward person, and he shouted: "This master is right. A quick decision is naturally the best. Governor Dong, if you agree, let's lift the anchor."

During the conversation, he confused "Master" with the Grand Bachelor.

Just as the few people were about to refute, Yu Zhuo waved his hands and asked, "I'm also from a military division, how about going out with General Huang?"

General Huang looked him up and down, and commented with a chuckle: "He's not short, but he's too thin. I'm afraid you'll get dizzy when you take the boat."

Glancing at the stunned Liu Sijun and Dong Yue, Yu Zhuo didn't expect that General Huang would directly classify him as a "weak scholar".

"I can't get seasick, otherwise, if I came to Changguo County, how could I be completely naked?" Yu Zhuo stepped onto a boat and pulled the anchor from the bottom of the water with his bare hands.

The anchor was made of solid iron, and it took several people to work together to get it up. General Huang jumped into the boat and moved the anchor in disbelief, his expression changed drastically.

Yu Zhuo looked up at the sky, the stars and the moon were not visible, and the sea was misty, it was a good time to send troops.

"Let's send troops." Dong Yue looked at the group of soldiers.There are only a hundred soldiers in this expedition, and they are divided into [-] ships. They will never confront each other head-on, and they will leave after burning the ships.

General Huang still had an unbelievable look on his face, but he didn't have any doubts anymore, and ordered the soldiers to quickly put on their backs and board the ship.

In order to prevent accidents and fear that Japanese pirates would notice, there were no lights on the boat, and the full-screen naked eyes and compass guided the boat.At this moment, a little light appeared in front of him.

"The patrol ship of the enemy here." Yu Zhuo looked at it for a while, then lowered his voice, "Will we be noticed?"

In view of the dense fog and night, General Huang shook his head and said, "They can't find it. Let's all stop the oars and put up the black sails."

The black sail was only made yesterday, and the dye was not stained. They stained the canvas, making it inconspicuous in the dark.At the same time, the soldiers have begun to arrange weapons.

No closer than an inch to the Japanese pirate fishing boat, everyone's hearts will be raised.

Fortunately, the time and place were right, and the other party did not find any problems until they got close to the local patrol boat.Even so, Yu Zhuo felt that the people around him couldn't even hear their breathing.

The number of their ships is not small, and it is extremely difficult to pass through under the nose of the patrol ship in a grand manner.

A long horn appeared from a nearby patrol boat, and then sharp percussion, chaotic call signs, and the sound of people piercing through the air huddled together.

"Hurry up, hurry up, walk at full speed, two people look at the fuse, and ignite it next to the fleet." General Huang yelled anxiously, "Following ships, hurry up and follow."

As if the wind was blowing in an instant, General Huang's roar was completely swallowed up in the night sky. Fortunately, they had taken precautions. The color of the flag could not be seen clearly in the dark, so they sent messages one by one from the bass horn to prevent the enemy from prying.

The ensuing arrow rain was impenetrable, and no one stepped out of the cabin.Yu Zhuo's expression froze, and he quickly pulled the soldiers aside, saying: "Go and send the order, retreat now!"

"Withdraw what you want, just this few arrows will scare you."

"Retreat quickly, it's too late if you don't retreat." Yu Zhuo snatched the horn from the soldier's hand and blew it three times, which was the signal to abandon the ship and retreat.

Yu Zhuo was agile, and General Huang didn't have time to stop him for a while. He yelled and drew his sword to kill Yu Zhuo. The latter quickly avoided, cut the flint and threw it into the fuze, and said, "Aren't you leaving?"

Furious, but there was nothing he could do. Yu Zhuo had already started cutting the rope. If they didn't keep up, the ship would be destroyed.

Jumping onto the boat, General Huang shouted, "You little bastard..."

Seeing his energetic appearance, Yu Zhuo said, "Since you have the strength to curse people, why don't you hurry up and sail back."

"You..." Before the cursing words could be uttered, countless arrows were shot from the northeast direction. Unlike last time, all the arrows were ignited.

Yu Zhuo jumped into the sea immediately.

As soon as he entered the icy sea, General Huang was afraid for a while. If he had gone one step later, he would have been blown to ashes along with the mother ship.

After a shower of arrows, Yu Zhuo quickly climbed into the boat and put out the fire with his wet clothes.

One after another explosions came from in front of them, and some of them did blow up to the pirate ships not far away.

"My... my lord, how did you know that those bastard sons were going to set fire to it?" General Huang was afraid for a while when he thought about it.

Yu Zhuo quickly scanned the surrounding boats. Most of these soldiers have experience in water combat. Even if the boat is destroyed, most of them can float for a long time.

"My lord..." General Huang asked again tentatively.

"I can smell kerosene." Yu Zhuo said lightly.

In most cases, the fires on the arrows flying such distances in the air must be extinguished by the wind, but these fires continued to burn more and more, presumably because of the use of excellent kerosene.

If the guess is correct, there must be a look at the Han people who are trading with the Japanese pirates, so that so much fire oil falls into the hands of the Japanese pirates.

"My lord, are you a dog?"

Yu Zhuo couldn't bear it anymore, and kicked the man into the sea.

Seeing the Japanese pirate ships bathed in flames, and the sound of sporadic explosions could be heard endlessly, General Huang settled down to guard the bow of the ship and commanded the ship with the old captain.

In the middle of the night, there was loud thunder, and the wind direction was chaotic. The old captain shouted: "It's bad, the compass is out of order!"

"How did it fail?"

"The compass is originally made of a magnet, so there will inevitably be problems, but I don't know where the problem is." The old captain was originally a scholar, but he had no hope of the imperial examination in the past, so he changed his career to do business in the sea, but the official language still can't change .

The thunder tore the sky from the top of the sky, and fell to the intersection of the sea and the sky, and reflected a hideous light on the water surface, as if it had the power to take away the heaven and the earth.

"Boom——" The sound of thunder was far more shocking than the sound of the explosion just now, and the ship seemed to feel the mighty force of nature, and let out a painful cry.

There was an uproar with the sound of rain.

The old captain was muttering something to himself, but no one could understand. After an hour or so, he could be sure that the course had deviated to the point where no one could recognize it.

"This dragon fire wire is really deadly." General Huang muttered a few words, trying to start a fire, but he couldn't produce any sparks.

Yu Zhuo had never been so confused, there was only the dark sky and the dark sea around, and thunder light illuminated everything from time to time, apart from that, they couldn't find any sense of direction.

"island!"

"There is an island!"

"General Huang, there is an island ahead!"

Stepping on the ground, Yu Zhuo suddenly felt unreal. General Huang ordered people to search it again, and found that the island is really not small. It seems that people used to live there, but now it is deserted.

As the saying goes, Lei Gong sings first, and there is not much rain.

The old captain chuckled and said, "I have never seen such an island to the east."

General Huang laughed and asked, "How do you know we're in the east? How about your broken compass?"

"No, what should we do?" The old captain fiddled for a long time, not sure if the previous turbulence was too great and he was completely broken.

From a distance, Yu Zhuo saw a building that looked like a temple and a Taoist temple hidden among tall and low trees, and turned around and said, "General Huang, hurry up and count the casualties."

"okay."

Climbing up the ancient Taoist temple on the somewhat scattered stone steps, the houses in the Taoist temple are all built with two floors. General Huang and the old captain struggled for a long time to light the fire.Condensed with coldness, Yu Zhuo looked around, familiar and unfamiliar scenes flooded into his mind, and through the struggling and rising firelight, he condensed a voice and smile that seemed like a world away.

"My lord, I have counted, and 32 people were lost." General Huang told the truth.

"Have you found the body?"

"I haven't found it, most of them fell into the sea." When General Huang said, he was less cheerful than usual, and a little more heavy. He looked at Yu Zhuo, who was in a daze.

It was originally made of bones for history, and no one has ever done it.
