Chapter 402 The surprise attack on Songsan
The result of interrogation of the pirates was surprising.
Among the captured pirates, there were actually several good ones who could understand and could speak the words of the Qin Dynasty.
This incident attracted the attention of Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo. Because before going to sea, the second emperor Hu Hai told them that this time he went to sea to catch pirates and practice the Qin Dynasty's naval army. But the real purpose was to find Xu Fu, who had deceived the First Emperor in the vast East China Sea.
Although Hu Hai and Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao explained that Xu Fu would establish a country on a small island country outside the East China Sea, this country is very perverted and unfriendly, and will be a threat to the Central Plains in the future.
However, Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo agreed in their hearts that Hu Hai was avenging his own revenge for his own Emperor Shi. After all, it would be impossible for those who dare to deceive the king and the emperor to receive the punishment they deserved.
In Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao's mind, Hu Hai believed that one was to maintain the majesty of the Tian family, and the other was to find immortals in the East China Sea.
In this era, people still believe in immortals.
Most of the captured pirates were useless. The young and energetic Ren Xiao ordered all the guys who could not speak the Qin Dynasty to chop their heads and hung them on the wooden stakes by the sea.
The remaining pirates who could speak Daqin were so scared that they were so scared that they pissed off and asked ten questions and answered them.
In just a short time, Ren Xiao knew their origin. The group of pirates currently live on a small island in the southeast, and are only part of the pirates in the East China Sea. Their small leader is called Song San, and it is said that there are higher-level pirates above Song San. It seems to be on a larger island.
All pirates believe in one person. It is said that this person has no name, but calls himself the Emperor Shenwu.
Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo immediately reported the obtained situation and rushed back to Xianyang. The performance of the Daqin sea ship in the specific implementation was also the performance of the Daqin sea ship. These were all attached with two detailed information, one for the emperor, and the other for the students of the Daqin Imperial Academy for them to develop new things as reference and improvement.
Hu Hai, who was far away in Xianyang, smiled at the corner of his mouth when he opened the memorial and saw the four words "Shenwu Emperor".
Unexpectedly, Xu Fu still failed to get rid of the laws of history and really called Emperor Shenwu. Moreover, this guy is smart and knows that there is a shortage of resources on the island country, so he actually thought of such a way to be a pirate.
Although the world is relatively backward and there are few sea commerce, there are also some sailors who are brave enough to explore and start to try on the sea. Xu Fu is trying to pay attention to these people.
"Go all your strength to find Xu Fu, who calls himself the 'Shenwu Emperor', and kill everything in his location." Hu Hai only gave Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo this simple reply. As for all the seizures in the war, it is completely counted as the personal income of the Qin Navy.
Since there is news about the pirates of Song San, the Qin Navy can follow the clues and find Xu Fu's nest bit by bit.
It is not easy to find a small island in the vast ocean.
If it weren't for those pirates who were afraid of death, even if the Qin navy knew where Song San was, it would have been delayed for some time to find it.
But now it is different. With the leadership of several pirates, Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo, with the Qin navy, set off towards the small island hidden by Songsan.
The pirates leading the Qin Navy were stunned after boarding the Qin warships.
When fighting against the Daqin sea ship, I just felt the tall, mighty and domineering sea ship. But after I really got to the top, I felt a different feeling. The flat deck and wide space were simply a mobile castle on the sea.
A pirate with a short head actually muttered to himself: "If there is such a warship, robbing on the sea would be simply..." Before he could finish his words, he was slapped back by Ren Xiao.
Ren Xiao was kind to these pirates who could speak the Qin Dynasty. He interrogated them with a few people and knew that they were all fishermen outside the East China Sea and could not stand being robbed by pirates. So he simply joined the pirates without stopping. Seeing that a few people were willing to surrender, Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo asked for instructions and then incorporated several people into the army. At this time, they were also part of the Qin Navy.
The Qin Navy also studied pirate affairs, which was impossible. So Ren Xiao slapped him in the face without any room for anything.
This guy doesn't have a serious name, he just calls him Wang Er.
Wang Er was beaten and smiled and touched the side of the ship and said, "General, don't blame me. I have been used to being at sea for several years. When I see such a good warship, I would unnaturally think of robbery."
After hearing what he said, Ren Xiao laughed.
"Our Qin navy also robs. But if we don't rob the common people and ordinary merchants, we will rob those who ordinary people cannot afford to mess with. For example, pirates. This is the man."
After hearing Ren Xiao's words, Wang Er nodded repeatedly. If the pirates had bullied them, the fishermen, why would he have been a pirate on the sea for so many years? He had killed people, snatched money, and committed many evils. A few days ago, he was taken by the Qin Navy, and many of his former companions were cut off. Wang Er thought that his retribution had come, but he didn't expect that the matter of speaking the Qin Dynasty would save his life.
He never expected that he could leave the pirates' team in his life, and in a blink of an eye he had a military uniform of the Qin Navy.
It turns out that he never dared to live a stable life, but now he imagines it.
The island where Song San is hiding is not big. In the waves of the sea, this island looks even smaller. However, this island has a curve, forming a natural harbor. More than a dozen pirate ships of all sizes are anchored in this natural harbor.
After calculating the time, Ren Xiao's Qin Navy came to the island in the early morning. At this time, a trace of white light had just jumped on the sea in the east, and the stars in the sky were still clearly visible.
The sea is also extremely calm at this moment.
In the calm of the early morning, more than 60 Daqin warships appeared quietly around Songsan's island like ghosts on the sea. This time, the Daqin navy was properly arranged, and the semi-encirclement situation had blocked the natural port of Songsan barges into airtightness.
With Ren Xiao's order, the three Daqin sea ships responsible for the attack rushed towards the natural port. The huge arrows on the archery crossbow were soaked with tinder oil, and the torches in the hands of the sergeant beside him were ready. After entering the range, they ignited the arrows and stimulated them.
On the island, the pirates were still sleeping. The pirates responsible for watching and watching were also napping.
When the first pirate crossbow with a line of fire broke through the night sky and shot a pirate ship in the harbor, the pirate who was standing guard suddenly woke up. He picked up the snail and whimpered.
Pirates on the island rose up one after another to fight. But outside the harbor, the Qin Navy's artillery crossbow had covered every pirate ship within the harbor.
