Chapter 401 The correct way to use Japanese piratesAfter destroying the Japanese pirate stronghold on Dachen Island, Lu Li continued to clean up.
According to the information obtained from the interrogation of the Japanese pirates, Lu Li swept the stations one by one, and cleaned all the large and small Japanese pirates stationed overseas in Zhejiang Province.
After this cleaning, Lu Li captured more than 10,000 Japanese pirates, captured more than 300 ships of various types, and rescued more than 1,000 people who had fallen into the hands of Japanese pirates. woman.
Apart from this, Lu Li also seized all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, silk satin, raw silk porcelain and other materials worth millions of silver tael.
Of course, Lu Li simply didn't bother to count the captured weapons and armor, and piled them up in the transport ship directly.
After this battle, the Japanese pirates along the coast of Zhejiang Province were completely wiped out, and half of the Japanese pirates were no longer seen.
When Lu Li swept the islands off the coast of Zhejiang Province to clear up the Japanese pirates, the 5,000 cavalry of Jinshanwei led by Sun Ding also arrived in Fujian Province, and cooperated with Yu Dayou to sweep out the Japanese pirates who dared to attack.
The Japanese pirates Xu Haibu, a team of 15,000 people, were directly attacked by 5,000 cuirassiers of Jinshanwei when they attacked Quanzhou Prefecture.
The 5,000 cuirassiers of Jinshanwei wear a wide-brimmed octagonal helmet made of steel essence, wear a steel essence cuirass, and are equipped with rifles, revolvers, and a steel essence Tang sword.
While charging, fire a volley from the rifle, then fire a five-round burst from the revolver. At this time, the enemy army had almost collapsed, and then the Ma Teng alliance took up the Tang Dao made by steel essence, and chopped the Japanese pirates to the point of crying.
At this time, the Japanese pirates had no time to run back to the sea, and they were all chopped to death by the Jinshan Guard cavalry on the way to flee.
After this war, the Japanese pirates in Fujian Province were much more honest.
The Japanese pirates who ravaged the coast of Fujian Province have withdrawn to the sea one after another, and the Japanese pirates in all parts of Fujian Province have basically subsided.
On the Fujian side, the risk of going ashore and looting is too great, so let's change it!
Then...the farther apart Qiongzhou and the coastal areas of Guangdong and Guangxi, the bandits are even more serious.
Facts have proved that it is only a delusion to simply destroy the Japanese pirates on land without destroying the foundation of the Japanese pirates at sea.
It's July.
Lu Li's fleet has grown again!
The second batch of destroyers built by Zheng Yuan has been completed.
There are 20 destroyers in the second batch. In addition to the original three destroyers, Lu Li already has 23 destroyers and more than 100 sails captured from Japanese pirates. transport ship.
This is already an armada!
Leaving three destroyers in the Songjiang Naval Division for naval recruit training and maintaining maritime security near Songjiang. Lu Li led 20 destroyers and 100 sail transport ships to set sail again to sweep out Japanese pirates.
At this time, Lu Li's actions were bigger.
After going to sea, Lu Li led the fleet south into the sea off Fujian Province, and directly drove the fleet to Keelung, Wan Island.
The Bay Island Keelung Harbor during this period was a place of chaos. Not only Daming maritime merchants stopped here, but also Japanese pirates, and grape duck people.
When Lu Li's huge fleet arrived at Keelung Harbor on Bay Island, the Japanese pirates and grape duck people in the harbor suddenly jumped.
The Japanese pirates exclaimed "the black clothed army is coming", turned and ran away, fleeing in embarrassment.
The grape duck people are also ashen-faced, and they don't know what this huge fleet is trying to do here.
It is natural to dare not resist.
After the destroyer blew up several armed merchant ships blocking the dock, no one dared to resist.
The transport ships dock and the Marines land.
5,000 black clothed sergeants, lined up in a neat queue, stepped on the dock with a neat pace.
The Keelung port at the moment is too shabby.
There are only some rudimentary wood houses, and there are no decent buildings at all, but... there are still a lot of people, Japanese pirates and grape duck people, men and women together, there are at least one or two thousand people.
"Arrest everyone here."
Lu Li waved his hand and ordered the soldiers under his command to arrest everyone in the Keelung port.
Don't worry about catching the wrong person. During this period, the people who appeared in Keelung Port were either Japanese pirates or pirates, er... Grape duck pirates were also pirates.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, you can't do this!"
A grape duck man with red hair and green eyes protested to Lu Li with gestures and broken Chinese.
"Why not?"
Lu Li raised his brows, "This is Daming's land, you have no right of abode, it is an illegal invasion. The chief officer is Huating Marquis of Daming, hussar general. , Governor of Southern Zhili, you should arrest the thieves who invaded Daming territory according to law."
"No! No! This is not Daming! This is not Daming's land!"
Grape Duck People quickly argued.
"Impudent! Since ancient times, Bay Island is my Ming Dynasty territory!"
Lu Li scolded, staring at the Portuguese with cold eyes, "Where the sun and the moon shine, All of them belong to the Ming Dynasty. Do you have an opinion?"
The black clothed sergeant beside him raised his rifle with a swoosh.
"No opinion! No opinion!"
The grape duck man shivered and dared not say a word.
"You illegally invaded the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the crime is unforgivable! This official is merciful, leave a way out, and you can be spared the death penalty."
Lu Li greets these messy Japanese pirates , the pirates glanced at them and said, "You will be punished for hard labor to build Keelung Port for your officers. This is called reform through labor. Let's reform well, and strive to be a new person as soon as possible!"
Then the transport ship docked, just now The 2,000 laborers who were captured began to unload from the transport ship.
All kinds of building materials and materials have been unloaded one after another. Lu Li is going to build a base in Keelung Port, and then take Keelung Port as the center to radiate the surrounding area, while eliminating Japanese pirates, while preparing for the future control of the sea. .
Countless materials were unloaded at the Keelung Port, and various materials were piled up like mountains. However, two thousand laborers are still not enough.
Lu Li sent the fleet out and began to sweep the islands off the coast of Fujian Province, clearing up Japanese pirates and capturing prisoners.
In addition, Lu Li also sent a transport ship to Taizhou Prefecture to bring over 10,000 Japanese prisoners of Japanese pirates deposited with Qi Jiguang to serve as construction laborers.
When these laborers arrived, Lu Li began to organize large-scale production construction.
The first is to find coal mines, then to burn bricks, burn cement, and build docks, forts, roads and port buildings.
The mineral resources of the Gulf Province are not rich, but there are coal mines. When Lu Li was studying geography, he had memorized these materials for a long time.
Find the coal mine and send the pirate captives to dig the coal. It not only solved the problem of burning bricks and cement, but also solved the fuel problem of destroyers.
As for the pirates who dig coal are not hard, dangerous or not...then hehe!
While Lu Li was busy building the Bay Island base, the fleet also swept across the islands in the waters of Fujian Province, clearing the nests of Japanese pirates.
The captured Japanese pirates were thrown into Keelung for construction.
1 month later, all the islands off the coast of Fujian Province were swept through, and more than 30,000 Japanese pirates were captured.
Fortunately, the materials seized from the Japanese pirates' lair are quite rich. Otherwise, Lu Li would have to transport food to prevent these Japanese pirates from starving to death.
At this time, nearly 50,000 people in Keelung Port had been thrown in by Lu Li.
In order to maintain law and order, Lu Li stationed all 5,000 marines in Keelung, and Songjiang transferred 5,000 soldiers to join in the work of eliminating Japanese pirates.
Under the tyrannical blow of Lu Li, the Japanese pirates were irresistible.
The outer sea of Zhejiang Province has been swept away, and the outer sea of Fujian Province has also been swept away, and Lu Li is still stationed in Wan Island.
In this case, the Japanese pirates could only flee towards the Southern Sea.
Besides Guangdong and Guangxi and Qiongzhou are also afraid to stay. After Lu Li cleared the Eastern Sea, the terrifyingly powerful fleet had already set off towards the outer seas of Guangdong and Guangxi.
Then run farther!
Where can't you go as long as you have a boat? Since there was Huatinghou in the Ming Dynasty who could not afford to offend, why would he still fight here?
Go to Luzon, go to Java, go to Malacca, or even go to Tianzhu, you can live a very nourishing life!
Therefore, Xu Hai, Wang Zhi and Xin Wulang, the three Japanese pirates gathered countless small groups of Japanese pirates, allied themselves with blood, assembled into a huge fleet of wolves, and fled south.
Along the way, Japanese pirates swept across Nanyang, seized Annam, seized the city, seized Luzon, seized Java, seized Jinzhou (Sumatra), seized Siam, seized Malacca...
Lu Li was stunned after receiving this information, and almost didn't laugh.
Yes! You are very capable!
If you don't go to scourge Nanyang, how can I pacify the bandits for the vassal Zhou State?
You make the way ahead, and I drive you to run from behind to see if you can hit the Mediterranean all the way!
By the way, do you want a gun? Although it's not a Jiajing Type 40 rifle, I can sell you a flintlock gun! Front mounted artillery can also be given Oh!
Lu Li smiled.
Since the Japanese pirates have all gone to Nanyang to harm others, Lu Li's Jinghai plan is almost the same.
Next, Lu Li continued to open the base.
The southern Qiongzhou Island must have a base. On the Ryukyu Island to the north of Bay Island, the Great Ming soldiers came to protect the Ryukyu Zhou State from Japanese pirates. This is a mighty grace!
In addition, Japanese pirates have been harassing the Ming Dynasty for many years, won't the Japanese state give an explanation? In order to avoid the occurrence of Japanese pirates again, it is normal to open a naval base in the Japanese country to clear the Japanese pirates!
Of course, Jeju Island also needs to establish a base to protect the Daming kingdom. This is the obligation of the Sect Master country!
As for the Ezo country in the Northern Sea, the Ezo people have fought with the Japanese for many years, and the Ming Dynasty couldn't bear to lose of life, so they came to mediate specially. It is also necessary to station a peacekeeping force!
The Nanyang area is easier to operate, and you don't need to make any excuses, just use the port as a garrison base in the name of chasing down Japanese pirates.
So, Lu Li developed a series of plans to gradually implement the formation of these military bases.
In September, the facilities at the Keelung Port on Bay Island are beginning to take shape.
By this time, the Japanese pirates along the coast of Daming actually no longer existed. Twenty destroyers, based at Keelung Port, patrol the sea from both the north and the south. Even if they wanted to make a cameo appearance as a pirate merchant, they wouldn't dare to think about it.
The states along the southeastern coast of Daming have reported one after another. Throughout August, there was no Japanese pirate invasion incident anywhere.
The officials of the various ministries of the Ming Dynasty celebrated with their crowns. There was no Japanese trouble for a whole month. This is an unprecedented thing!
Marquis Huating is worthy of being a famous general in the world. With him, there will be no more Japanese pirates.
It's just...how far is the progress of Huating Hou Qing's suppression of Japanese pirates? Why haven't I seen the good news from Huating Hou?
So, in the name of the cabinet, Xu Gelao sent a document to Lu Li to ask about the progress of the anti-Japanese war.
Lu Li certainly cannot say that Japanese pirates are not enough.
Once he said that, the Imperial court would immediately order him to return to the dynasty, the just-built Keelung Port would be abandoned, and other base plans could not be implemented at all.
Even... Japanese pirates who fled to the South China Sea will return in a swirl of dust.
Don't think this is overly worrying, what can't the Imperial court bosses do? When it comes to self-destructing the Great Wall, they are the most expert.
Therefore, Lu Li wrote a memorial sheet, describing the situation of resisting Japanese pirates, emphasizing that the Japanese pirates were not eradicated, but were just blocked in the Southern Sea. return in a swirl of dust.
After receiving this presentation, the Imperial court bosses analyzed it, and that's right!
Huating Hou is right. Japanese pirates are sea pirates, they can escape by boat. If they can't beat Huating Hou, don't they know how to escape?
Now there is Huating Hou guarding the Southern Sea, once Huating Hou Ban Division withdraws troops, Japanese pirates will return in a swirl of dust.
In this case, let Huating Hou continue to contain Japanese pirates in the Southern Sea!
Anyway, Huating Hou does all the hard work, and we don't need to go to war. You can continue to sit in the Southern Sea and continue to fight Japanese pirates!
In order to allow Lu Li to continue to work hard in the Southern Sea and lead the army to clear the Japanese pirates, the Imperial court gave Lu Li a commendation and commendation. In Lu Li's official position of "Southern Zhili Governor", he returned to Lu Li. Li added a "Southern Sea Governor".
The Governor of the Southern Sea is also a name. In the eyes of Imperial court bosses, what does Southern Sea have? There are only a few deserted islands with no people.
This title is just a consolation for Lu Li.
However...they don't know that some people can pry up Earth just by giving him a fulcrum.
The title of Governor of the Southern Sea allows Lu Li to engage in various small actions justifiably.
Next, in the name of "Southern Sea Governor", Lu Li recruited people from the southeastern coastal states on the grounds of "building the Great Wall at sea and defending the enemy from overseas". Limit origin.
So, the smart officials of the Ming Dynasty captured all the refugees, local ruffians, idlers, and villains in the territory, stuffed them into Lu Li's transport ship, and sent them all out.
The public security environment in various state capitals has improved greatly, and Lu Li has also obtained manpower for overseas development.
On the basis of Keelung Port, Bay Island continues to increase development efforts.
The base construction on Qiongzhou Island has officially started.
Lu Li also sent a large number of people to Jeju Island to prepare for the development of the Jeju Island base.
The Ryukyu base does not need to send additional laborers, and the large population of Ryukyu can be used for base construction.
From Jeju Island in the north to Qiongzhou Island in the south, Lu Li's island chain bases were officially launched.
The footsteps of the world have taken the first step.
