Chapter 117 Unexpected encounter

Seeing the ship that cost him more than two million Dutch gulfs, it sank into the sea, Sultan Oma Ali Saifting I collapsed on the ground and started crying.

"My boat! My boat! I want my boat!"

"Your Majesty! There is a small boat over there, let's run away quickly!" The guard beside him said to him quickly.

"My boat! I won't leave! I want my boat!"

At this time, Oma Ali Saifting's character of greed for money and life was fully demonstrated. No matter how the guards around him pulled him, he didn't leave, and cried and shouted that he wanted to catch his ship.

At this time, the 8th Division's infantry regiment was approaching the port.

When these guards saw the Ming army infantry like wolves and tigers, they immediately lost their loyalty and began to flee in all directions.

The infantry of the Eighth Division began to pursue the escaped guards, and they surrounded the man who was sitting on the ground, dressed in a very gorgeous manner.

"Oh, why is this guy crying so hard? He is wearing such beautiful clothes and looking so black and fat. Could it be the Sultan of Brunei?" A soldier said, looking at the miserable appearance of Oma Ali Saifting I.

"Maybe! At least it must be a nobleman. Let's take him away! The division commander must know who he is!" said another soldier.

Then, these people were going to forcefully catch Oma Ali Saifting I and wanted to take him to see Duan Honglong.

"You let go of me! Let go of me! You devils, let go of me!" When Oma Ali Saifting I was held up by two people and lifted up, he realized that he had been captured.

"Hey! Stop messing around! If you try harder, you will be killed!" A soldier behind him saw him like this and kicked him hard, and he became honest.

But after dragging him, a new question came again.

"Hey, army, who pissed? So sexy? Still smelly?" said the soldier holding one arm of Oma Ali Saifting I.

"Yes? Who did it?" Another soldier stopped and sniffed it carefully, and found that the source of the smell was the fat man next to him who was dressed very brightly.

"Damn it! You kid actually pissed your pants in fear! You shit!" Another person also reacted and quickly jumped out.

"This coward." A soldier next to him cursed again and said, "Forget it, I'll help you!"

After changing individuals, Oma Ali Saifting I was brought to Duan Honglong.

Duan Honglong had seen the portrait of Oma Ali Saifting I drawn by the Jinyiwei. He even recognized him as he turned into ashes. He could tell at a glance that this guy with tears on his face and smells all over his body was the Sultan of the Sultanate of Brunei.

"Yeah, I really caught a big fish! I didn't expect it to be a sultan!" Duan Honglong laughed when he saw Oma Ali Saifting I, who was taken to the command center.

Because of the previous case, he was worried that he would be punished by Zhu Haitao, so now he might be able to offset his merits and demerits, and even go to another level.

This is also the glory of the Eighth Division. Since their establishment, they have not yet been tested by war. When they attacked the Philippines, they were still clearing out the indigenous tribes in the Sabah area on Borneo. Now they have finally made great contributions. This is the glory of this army!

Oma Ali Saifting I was then sent by Duan Honglong to transport it to Chengtian Prefecture by fast ship from Seribagawan City, and then transported a number of other Brunei Sultanate nobles in Seribagawan.

But what he regretted was that the assassination had never been successful. It was only that Oma Ali Saiftin I told him that Antson had already left Seribagawan City by the fast ship and headed for Batavia.

A few days later, the First Fleet and the Army units he escorted had already included the Natuna Islands in the territory. In addition to the two Xia-class warships escorting tens of thousands of Chinese, the other eight Xia-class warships are now escorting the transport fleet to Siwu City, the Sultanate of Brunei.

Dozens of warships sailed above the sea, with waves rolling up thousands of piles of snow, with a very grand momentum.

Seeing this scene, Li Haiyang, the commander of the First Fleet, felt deeply moved. Is this the same scene as Zheng He led thousands of ships to the West to sail seven times and sailing on the South China Sea hundreds of years ago?

How powerful was Emperor Chengzu's power to conquer Tian Jing Dynasty, attacked the northern desert five times, and voyages to the West seven times. How powerful were more than 30 countries that paid tribute? At that time, the South Ocean was completely under the control of the Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, the power of civil servants in the Ming Dynasty continued to expand, which made the maritime career decline. During the reign of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, civil servant Liu Daxia, for his own selfishness, privately burned the navigation charts, completely disappearing these precious heritages.

Although in the late Ming Dynasty, Yan Siqi, Zheng Zhilong and others caused the rise of maritime trade again, but later, because the extremely conservative Qing soldiers entered the pass and eventually captured Taiwan, China fell into the abyss of being closed to the country.

At present, another fleet formed by a powerful Chinese sailed on the South China Sea. They wanted to regain the glory of their own and their ancestors, so that China would no longer be covered in dust, overthrow the Qing Dynasty's barbarians, and let the sun and moon flags fly on the earth again.

In such thoughts, Li Haiyang picked up the telescope and looked into the distance.

"Commander, it's not good! There are two pirate ships on that side!" At this moment, the lookout standing at the height of the mast said to Li Haiyang standing on the front deck.

"What? Pirate ships dare to attack our First Fleet?" Li Haiyang cursed, and then looked to that side. In the Nanyang area of ​​pirates, the First Fleet met them a lot while sailing. At first they wanted to be tough with the First Fleet, but after several strikes, they stopped.

In his telescope, he saw two fourth-level warships heading towards the fleet at high speed, one after another, and each ship was hung high on the skeleton flags that pirates often hung.

"All warships are ready!" In this case, Li Haiyang made a quick decision and ordered.

At the same time, on the fourth-class battleship led by the British Navy Lieutenant Colonel Raffles was also watching dozens of warships with the Emperor's Golden Dragon Flag in his telescope.

"I didn't expect to meet you here." Lieutenant Colonel Raffles murmured to himself. He also did not expect to meet the navy of the Ming Kingdom here.

After returning to the Penang system in a mess last time, he told Colonel Wright exactly what he saw, and suggested that he could not join forces with the Ming Dynasty and that he would also have to crack down on their shipping ideas if he had the opportunity.

But Colonel Wright refused. In his opinion, these Spaniards were not good things, and it seemed that the Ming Kingdom was stronger than he thought and was a good target to win over. At the same time, he also severely criticized Lieutenant Colonel Raffles' words, saying that his performance made a potential ally of the British Empire angry, which made Lieutenant Colonel Raffles feel very humiliated.
