Chapter 76 Ships and Cannons
The Zhengheiqi robbery team stepped out of the old forest again.

What was different from the previous ones was that this time the raiding team gathered the strength of all the savage Jurchen tribes in the southern part of the northern bank of Heilongjiang.

Moreover, due to the high rate of armor wearing in the Baijian slave army and the gains from the previous looting, the two main looting troops this time each have about 50 armored soldiers. Leather armor, the armor rate of the raiding team has reached an astonishing [-]%!

Compared with Jiannu's army, this team can already be regarded as an elite army, except that the ratio of firearms is stretched, and there is still a gap in fighting will.

Of course, the biggest change in the raiding team this time is actually that Zhu Youjian has a map of the Liaodong area for reference.

You don't have to search desperately to try your luck like before.

Now that map is printed in Zhu Youjian's mind, and it will be taken out from time to time for comparison with another map, and some places marked in it will be compared with each other.

The previous two roads of looting are definitely not working now.

They have all been looted, and it would be strange if the generals did not organize a garrison force to come out near Niulu or cities.

Not to mention that besides the avenue created during the first large-scale looting, there might be those Jian slaves who retreated to guard it.

Since it was looting, it was natural to pick and bite Jianu's weakest point as before, so that he could easily gnaw off the flesh and blood and better support himself.

Therefore, Zhu Youjian turned his attention to a somewhat unique place name on the map recorded in his mind.

Ning Guta.

"Plunder the city? Is it the city the women mentioned?"

"No, Wuerte seems to be talking about occupying the city, we are going to grab the land of the Jianzhou people!"

"really!?"

"Is it really [-]% sure?"

"really!"

You Shoulong was still a little unconvinced, and was about to speak again to make sure, when Jin Yiwei pushed him away: "Come on! Let me explain in detail! But let me coax you first! Grandpa, I will go out this trip for three days and nights to climb up the mountain." Get down on the ground and sneak around! I finished eating the dry food for the first two days, and the next day because I couldn’t understand, I didn’t get a grain of rice!"

"Cheng Chengcheng! Sir, please come in first and sit down!"

You Shoulong greeted him verbally and courteously, and the other Jinyi guards also went to the cook in Li Shijin's house to order something to eat first.

After a while, the cook came over with a bowl.

"What is this? What about feeding the animals?"

"It doesn't take time to make hot dishes! This, this bibimbap with wild vegetables? Let's eat something when you have it. This is the exclusive secret recipe of the human chef. Keep the good things for yourself to enjoy! Talk while eating."

"Well, you're doing things cheaply, and you're living like this. It's okay, go and get me a cup of tea, tea, do you understand?"

The North Korean cook nodded and bowed down to pour tea.

That Jin Yiwei took a few mouthfuls of bibimbap, and then he opened his mouth amidst the waiting gazes of the Jin Yiwei on the side.

"North Korea was defeated by Jiannu a few years ago, and all the artillery and military equipment in the country were confiscated and exploited. So the first day I searched, I found nothing in the official documents of the towns and cities. On land, the only record that still has the cannon is The capital of Korea.

It is definitely not possible to attack the king's city and rob the cannon, so the clues we investigated before we came here have come to an end and are blocked!But when I was looking for official documents, I paid attention to the sea again!
This is unbelievable. Although the North Korean land army was defeated for thousands of miles during its "Bingzi chaos", the water army was actually also defeated, but a large part of the naval warships still remained.

It just so happened that a warship was in urgent need of repairs in recent months, and it was docked in the harbor dock near Pyongyang City, North Korea, two hundred miles south from Yangde County, and there were artillery on the warship. "

Hearing this, Jin Yiwei frowned in surprise and said, "Snatch the cannons on the warship?"

"It's better than robbing the Joseon King City."

".Too."

But You Shoulong asked the important point: "Even if it is repaired in the dock, half of it is in the sea. Why is it [-]% as you said?"

"Hey!"

The Jin Yiwei chuckled and took a few mouthfuls of rice, chewed and swallowed quickly, and replied, "Who said the cannons are on board."

"It was taken off during the ship repair?"

"Exactly! The inner and outer decks of the ship are rotten, and the soldiers are turned into powder when they step on it, and there are wood stabbing people, and the base of the cannon is corroded, so all eleven cannons have been dismantled and stored in the harbor, the caretaker But there are more than fifty soldiers.

The only pity is that these cannons are a bit small, but there is a large-scale Frang machine from the Jiajing period inside. Although it is not comparable to the Hongyi cannon, it is still worthy of use. "

(During the Jiajing period, Fran cannons were imitated and improved on a large scale. According to the size of the caliber, they were divided into three types: small, medium and large, among which small and medium castings were the most.)
Hearing this, all Jin Yiwei also secretly nodded.

If there were only fifty North Korean soldiers, it would be ten to ten percent of them to seize the cannon with all their strength.

But the problem is that the cannon won't follow them.

But Sun Qin is not a big talker, so everyone looked at him again.

"How to transport?"

Sun Qin, who cleaned up the food in the bowl, tapped his chest twice to help swallow, then wiped his mouth and stroked his beard and said: "The cannons that were dismantled from the ship will naturally be transported by ship."

Hearing this, all Jinyiwei couldn't help being puzzled for a moment, and then a few people's eyes lit up!
"You mean!"

"Let's grab the boat directly!"

Sun Qin grinned grinningly, and gave the answer first: "The deck of the warship needs to be dismantled and reinstalled a lot, and naturally there will not be many soldiers on board, and that warship has been repaired in Pyongyang Harbor for more than two months. The report said that the deck repairs were nearing completion, and the only thing left was to hang the mainsail and hoist the cannons back into the interior cabin, and the work could be completed in at most five days, and after the completion inspection, the soldiers would board the ship in two days."

You Shoulong answered in surprise: "If we board the ship and rob it after the completion of the ship, then not only will we get eleven cannons, but we will also have the ship going south along the coastal road that His Majesty said!"

The other Jinyiwei were immediately delighted.

"Then those few people from the Zheng family who stayed in North Korea before, do you want to contact them?"

"If you buy a warship, it can also serve as a cargo ship, and the trade routes with Black Flag Fort will be much more frequent."

During the discussion, one Jin Yiwei raised an objection to leaving.

"But this will affect the seaport plan. Your Majesty wants to establish a long-term connection with Ming Dynasty through North Korea. If we rob this warship, how will we gain a foothold in North Korea?"

The other Jinyi didn't care.

"It's good to be careful, the vast sea, as long as our identities are not revealed, then even if we change hands and take the cannons to destroy the ship, it's fine."

"After going south, it's fine to leave it in Daming."

"In the name of the Zheng family, they are old pirates anyway."

 Thanks for the reward of 'It's a lifetime'
