I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 535 Tang Wuyang's Exploration
In the evening, a faint mist rose from the sea. Although it was not large, it still made it impossible to see the distant scene clearly from hundreds of meters away.

The shouts of killing on the sea had stopped half an hour ago.

Zhu Zhanji and others who were waiting on the coast had been waiting anxiously for a long time.

If it weren't for the fact that there were no ships around, they would have sailed out to sea long ago to check the results in person.

The people on the island knew what would happen to them if the court's troops were defeated.

Some people may get a little impatient waiting, and they are ready to kill all the pirates caught earlier to sacrifice to heaven.

But Deputy Qianhu firmly stopped those soldiers who were about to riot.

"Before the battle situation is clear, killing the prisoners is a serious crime, don't you know?" Deputy Qianhu asked coldly.

But a hundred households stood up and shouted loudly,

"My lord, if... if our army loses to the pirates, once they go ashore, we will have no way to survive. It is better to kill all these bastards as soon as possible. When the time comes, we will fight them desperately, and it will be more clean."

Deputy Qianhu opened his mouth, but was choked by his words. He never thought about the possibility of his own defeat.

According to common sense, a lot of manpower is needed to guard and surrender the enemy. Before the two armies confront each other, it is also normal behavior to kill prisoners and sacrifice to heaven.

But Deputy Qianhu always had a feeling in his heart. He didn't think that the imperial fleet would really lose to the pirates.

But at this time, facing the soldiers who were getting more and more emotional, he couldn't say a word of comfort.

At this moment, someone suddenly pointed to the sea and shouted,

"Look, there is a boat coming on the sea."

Everyone looked towards the black shadow on the sea.

I saw that the ship was tall and broad, whether it was the shape or the number of masts on the ship, it was clearly my own ship.

Some soldiers, who were worried that they would die before, finally saw their own warships returning victorious, fell to their knees excitedly, and thanked God loudly.

Zhu Zhanji has a telescope in his hand. He is actually the first person to see the sea surface clearly.

Although he didn't say much, he still couldn't help being excited, and unconsciously clenched Tang Wanqing's soft hand.

Tang Wanqing was also very worried about the situation on the sea just like him, so she became restless and didn't open Zhu Zhanji's salty hands immediately.

She wasn't worried about what would happen if the court's ship failed, she knew that even without the court's warship, her master Tang Sai'er was capable of bringing them back to the Central Plains safely.

What she is worried about is the three junior sisters who are still on the battleship. If the victors are pirates, what will happen to the three girls? It makes people shudder to think about it. It is also the first time she gave birth, so she shouldn't leave them idea.

At this time, after hearing the news that the Ming army had returned victoriously, she finally let go of most of her dangling heart, and hurriedly snatched the telescope from Zhu Zhanji's hand, and checked it herself.

Accompanied by the creak of the sails and the crackling of the waves against the hull.

The warships of the Ming army finally sailed into this small port.

Whether it was the Ming army on the shore or the soldiers on the warship, they were all excited and couldn't wait to jump into the sea to fight with their brothers.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Chen Hong nodded to Lin Wuque who was standing beside him.

A look of embarrassment flashed across Lin Wuque's face, but in the end he followed what he had said before, and suddenly lifted up a bloody head.

It was the head of the pirate leader Yoshio Akagi.

He held up the head and shouted to all,

"The pirate chief Yoshio Akagi is dead, and all the hundreds of pirates under him have been captured. The Ming army has won a big victory!"

Everyone present shouted excitedly,
"Wan Sheng, Great Ming Wan Sheng, the Ming Army is mighty!"

Even the Mingjiao disciples who usually didn't deal with the Ming army very much also shouted at this time, as if they were also honored.

After defeating the three warships of the pirates, they not only captured hundreds of pirates, but also searched for a lot of good things from the pirate ships that had not completely sunk.

That night, a grand celebration banquet was held that basically gathered all the men, women and children on the island.

Chen Hong did not spare his achievements, and praised Lin Wuque for saving everyone by releasing the poisonous smoke at the end, which made Lin Wuque, who had never had such a glorious moment, feel a little embarrassed.

In fact, there was a reason why Chen Hong did this.

The main purpose of their coming here is to save Zhu Zhanji, but if they want to resolve this matter safely, they cannot create more barriers between the Ming army and other people on the island.

In order to defeat the pirates, they are almost exhausted and have run out of ammunition and food. If they have conflicts with the aborigines or Mingjiao disciples on the island due to other things,

Whether he can successfully complete the task in the end, whether he can bring all his brothers back to Daming safely is unknown.

That's why he didn't hesitate to praise Lin Wuque with his compliments.

In this way, at least Lin Wuque, the nominal leader of the disciples of the Ming Cult, would not be their enemy.

With him as a buffer in the middle, whether it is a Mingjiao disciple or an aborigine, it will no longer be a problem.

In the end, as long as Tang Sai'er and the others are dealt with, his mission this time may be successfully completed.

But even so, the first credit was given to Lin Wuque, but his final credit is still not small, whether it is rescuing the prince.

Or wipe out hundreds of pirates, no matter what, he is destined to show his face in front of the emperor, and his future official career will be smooth sailing.

With these, he was already very satisfied, and he would not care if Lin Wuque stole his limelight.

After drinking and eating, everyone chatted around clusters of bonfires.

Zhu Zhanji found Lin Wuque and praised him a lot, which made Lin Wuque very embarrassed.

But Tang Wuyang found Chen Hong.

The two chatted on the beach while drinking.

Chen Hong wanted to find out more information from Tang Wuyang through Jiu Jin, and Tang Wuyang also wanted to take this opportunity to express their position to the imperial court and His Majesty today.

Maybe Tang Wuyang was instructed by Tang Saier.

His purpose is very clear, he said to Chen Hong when he came up,

"Chen Qianhu, I know that you bear the emperor's order and want to rescue your prince.

Here, I can assure you on behalf of His Majesty, as long as you don't mess around, we will never hurt that kid, and when things are done, we will definitely return him to you intact.

But before that, I hope you can cooperate with us to dig out the treasure.

As a reward, we can share part of the treasure depending on the size of the treasure..."
