Chapter 51: Cuju Qingluan Guards Under Fire

“Red sun, yellow moon, blue background.

That...that is...the Great Tomorrow Sun and Moon Flag~!

saved!
Everybody is saved!"

The joy of surviving the disaster made Lu Wanning's eyes fill with tears.

On the sun, moon and dragon flag, the red sun represents that the Ming Dynasty belongs to the fire virtue.

From a distance, the red sun and yellow moon meet on a blue background, which looks a bit like the Chinese character "Ming" in Ming Dynasty.

In the vast ocean, there are only two kinds of people who can fly the sun, moon and dragon flags.

The Ming Dynasty Navy, or the Ming Dynasty Royal Caravan.

Although it was just a quick glance, Lu Wanning found that most warships had more than ten gun ports on one side.

The huge caliber of the artillery and the eerie light all indicate that this fleet is the Ming Dynasty Navy.

In fact, there is another key point to determine that the fleet belongs to the Ming Dynasty Navy.

Most of the Ming Dynasty people who escaped from the tiger's den on Lu Wanning's boat were coastal residents. Next to the Ming Dynasty's sun, moon and dragon flag, they also saw a flag with the word "Wei" on it.

The flag with the word "Wei" on it is the symbol of the Wei family army.

Even the common people could spot the Wei flag and the Ming Dynasty's sun, moon and dragon flag, and the Japanese pirates who followed were naturally no exception.

The dark fleet made Kishida Nobuo swallow his saliva.

Then, an extreme chill arose from the depths of his soul.

The dark muzzles of those warships alone could easily tear their warships apart.

From several miles away, the mysterious rainbow light not only destroyed the warships, but also caused a storm that evaporated the Japanese pirates who fell into the water.

Now, he could still faintly smell a nauseating barbecue smell.

This is the most desperate way to die.

"Xiao Lin, we must immediately change direction and do our best to increase the distance between us and the Ming navy."

Nobuo Kishida made a suggestion.

"no!
The performance of the Ming Navy's warships is obviously superior to ours.

Even if we drove at full speed, it would be impossible to create a distance.

In the end, the only fate is to be hunted.

Now, what we should do first is to do everything we can to shorten the distance between us and the Ming Dynasty's escaped slave ships.

Whether it was the Ming Dynasty artillery or the rainbow light that broke through the air, although they were very destructive.

Once we close the distance to the escaped slave ship, the Ming navy will be concerned about the safety of the escaped slaves and will not dare to use any means recklessly.

Besides, if we close the distance, we can catch all the escaped slaves.

This way, we will also be qualified to negotiate with the Ming Navy."

Mr. Kobayashi is undoubtedly a qualified Japanese pirate.

Although he was also shocked by the momentum of the Ming Navy, he made the wisest decision at the critical moment.

Next, the Japanese pirate warships accelerated with all their might.

Lu Wanning also saw their purpose.

Hope was right in front of her, and Lu Wanning didn't want it to be shattered, so she accelerated regardless of the consequences.

Again, their driving skills cannot be compared with those of the Japanese pirates.

The distance between the two continues to narrow.

"gunpowder?
Immediately take out the gunpowder barrels in the cabin and throw them down. Then..."

Lu Wanning was arranging a series of operations when she suddenly froze.

She saw again a light approaching rapidly.

Different from last time.

In this ray of light, she actually saw a person.

Lu Wanning was a little confused.

The warships of the Ming Navy were still several miles away. How did this person get here?

She was puzzled.

Wei Sheng was completely confused.

What did he see just now?
Su Qing jumped up from the boat and spanned dozens of feet.

Just as his body was about to fall into the sea, he suddenly jumped out of the sea again, as if there was something under the water that could provide him with leverage.

It's just an endless ocean, how could there be something that can be used as leverage?

There really should be no place to leverage the sea.

However, Su Qing had already made sufficient preparations to deal with the underwater fight, and some bamboo rafts were stored in his panel.

His feet seemed to have landed on the water, but they were actually stepping on a bamboo raft. With the help of the raft's rebound, his body suddenly jumped up.

Because Su Qing could cross dozens of feet in one step.

Wei Sheng couldn't see the bamboo raft on the sea surface from dozens of feet away, which made him feel incredible.

"fire!
Fire now!"

Although the Japanese pirates did not understand how Su Qing managed to come across the sea, they knew that they must not let this person board the escaped slave ship.

Otherwise, everything will be troublesome.

boom! boom! boom!
Having grown up through countless naval battles, these Japanese pirates are quite skilled in operating artillery.

But then, the gun ports on the sides of the Japanese pirate warships opened and the cannons were pushed out.

Soon, the hull shook, and dozens of solid shells immediately turned into a dragnet, blocking all of Su Qing's paths.

Seeing that he would only end up being bombarded, Kobayashi and Kishida Nobuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Although, among the Ming navy, the water-walking visitor is a master.

But he forgot that when he dived down, his route of movement was fixed.

He is the target!
he……"

Nobuo Kishida has a tendency to embody great wisdom.

But then, his expression froze on his face, and his whole body felt cold and icy.

A wonderful Cuju performance is unfolding before our eyes.

Since shrapnel bombs were a new product of the Ming Dynasty's Shenjiangsi, the Japanese pirate warships were not equipped with them at all.

Su Qing's body is extremely strong and his strength is unparalleled.

The solid shell came with great force, but it was nothing in front of him.

Su Qing's right foot turned into an afterimage and kicked out repeatedly.

His kick was so powerful that it immediately shattered the void, exploding layers of violent air waves!
The shells that were kicked flew backwards at a speed faster than when they were fired from the bore.

The destructive power of a solid artillery shell is related to the kinetic energy it carries.

And what is kinetic energy related to?
Quality and speed.

To be precise, kinetic energy is equal to half the mass and the square of the velocity.

Speed ​​squared?
The speed of the cannonball kicked away by Su Qing must have increased several times. How much kinetic energy could it generate?
How incredible is the destructive power?

In short, several Japanese pirate ships were directly torn apart by the terrifying kinetic energy of the shells.
"monster!!"

Kishida Nobuo's face turned completely pale.

If, at the beginning, he just felt that the visitor who walked on water was not as strong as a human.

Now, he was certain that the person coming was a terrifying monster in human skin.

Just as Kishida Nobuo was thinking, he felt the hull shake, and then he saw the monster appear beside him.

Kishida Nobuo's pupils suddenly contracted, and he opened his mouth and shouted, "Don't kill..."

boom!
Before he could kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, his head was blown apart!
After Su Qing slapped Kishida Nobuo to death with a slap, he immediately punched the fleeing Japanese pirate, Kobayashi-kun, through the air.

His fist was still more than ten feet away from Xiaolin Jun, and the powerful force of his fist instantly shattered most of Xiaolin Jun's chest, sending his broken body flying.

Su Qing did not destroy the boat under his feet.

“The other boats are small sampans and are not very valuable.

The pirate flagship was similar to the Murong clan's warship, and the value of the ship alone was no less than ten thousand taels. It's a pity that it was destroyed like this."

In theory, no matter how small a ship is, as long as it can sail in the ocean, it is worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and it would be a pity to destroy it.

It’s just that Su Qing came across the ocean to wipe out the Japanese pirates. Most of the people on the ship are soldiers, so where are the extra crew members?
After settling everything, Su Qing boarded the slave ship.

"My humble self, Lu, greets General Wei!"

A gentle and delicate voice sounded.

At first glance, Su Qing was greeted by a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water, slender eyebrows that reached her temples, skin as white as jade and snow, and a graceful posture.

Even though she looked a little disheveled at this moment, she was still a rare beauty.

In addition to looking at the other person, Su Qing also observed the surrounding environment.

He discovered that although Lu was just a woman, she was the soul of the ship.

This made him feel curious about Lu Wanning.

Although she was curious, Su Qing shook her head: "Miss, you misunderstood. I am not General Wei!"

Although embarrassed, the Lu family girl quickly regained her composure and said, "I am incompetent, please don't blame me, sir!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Su Qing didn't care much, but asked curiously: "What's going on with you?"

"We were all robbed by the Japanese pirates. I am proficient in medicine and secretly collected the flower of the morning glory that can cause people to fall into a coma.

"I took advantage of the pirates' banquet and drank wine to sneak Nao Yanghua in. When he was unconscious, I escaped!"

Although Lu Wanning said it simply, Su Qing knew that the process must be extraordinary.

Sure enough, he got a more detailed explanation of the situation from Wei Sheng.

"Because the girl was beautiful, a Japanese pirate leader named Watanabe Hideo from Xishan Island wanted to offer her to the great Japanese pirate Hattori Senjun, so he did not touch the girl.

The Lu family member took the opportunity to ask some women from the Ming Dynasty to take care of her daily life.

Seizing the opportunity, Lu's daughter Nao Yanghua plotted against the Japanese pirates and led the other women to escape.

It’s just that there were so many Japanese pirates on Xishan Island that they were discovered, which led to the previous scene of being hunted down.”

"I see!"

Su Qing suddenly understood.

"correct!
Another thing is that most of the women on the ship were abducted by Japanese pirates.

However, those Ming men were deceived."

At this point, Wei Sheng became unusually angry.

"what happened?"

"There's a gang in southern Fujian called the Giant Whale Gang, which does water transport business.

The Giant Whale Gang is a major gang involved in offshore trade and water transport.

It was based on the Grand Canal and coastal shipping routes, monopolizing the transportation of goods between the north and the south and engaging in businesses such as salt administration and merchant ship protection.

He enjoys considerable reputation in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and other places.

Just like this, when the Giant Whale Gang openly recruited boatmen and loaders, many coastal fishermen signed up enthusiastically.

They only recruited a dozen or so people, and the rest were transported to the Zhoushan Islands and sold to the Japanese pirates."

Although Su Qing guessed from Wei Sheng's anger that there was a serious problem, he did not expect that someone was trafficking in the people of the Ming Dynasty, and even selling them to Japanese pirates.

This has touched Su Qing's bottom line, causing him to feel murderous intent.

It took a long time before it gradually calmed down.

Su Qing, who was calm, noticed Wei Sheng standing aside, looking like he wanted to say something but didn't know how to start, so he asked, "Is there anything else?"

“Sir, although the women of the Ming Dynasty were abducted because of Lu Wanning, they have preserved their innocence.

But after all, they were abducted by Japanese pirates.

People's words are scary. Even if you have not lost your chastity, you will definitely be subject to gossip whether you return to your husband's family or your parents' family.

They have nowhere to go and want to join my army to kill the Japanese.

But we are all men, and it would be inconvenient for us to mix with a group of women. I would like to ask you to take them in."

"It's inconvenient for you, but it's convenient for me?"

Su Qing was speechless.

"The Jinyiwei under your command already has a remarkable woman like Ding Baiying, so it wouldn't be a problem if there were more women."

Wei Sheng's words left Su Qing unable to refute.

However, on second thought, the Six Gates already have a group of female detectives from the Crane Division, and it wouldn't be a big deal for our Jinyiwei to have another team of female Jinyiwei from the Blue Luan Division.

"Of course, if they are too delicate and can't endure hardship, don't blame me for not giving them a chance."

Thinking about this, Su Qing walked out of the cabin again and saw the women who had simply washed up: "General Wei, tell me about your situation.

I understand you, but you may not be clear about my origins.

I am Su Qing, the commander of the Imperial Guards."

Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard?

When did he become the commander?
By the way, with the publication of "The History of Ming Dynasty", Zhu Jianshen himself was very fond of Su Qing.

In addition, he thwarted Prince Ning's plan to launch a surprise attack on Kyoto, which can be said to be a great achievement.

Zhu Jianshen began to think of promoting Su Qing to the commander-in-chief.

Officials in the Ming Dynasty had to be promoted step by step.

For those between the fourth and third ranks, one usually needs to be promoted to the third rank first, and then to the third rank.

This design is intended to prevent promotions beyond one's level and ensure the stability of the bureaucratic system.

For example, among the six ministries of the Ming Dynasty, the fourth-rank official, the Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, had to be promoted to the third-rank official of the Guanglu Temple before he could be promoted to the third-rank official of the Six Ministries.

The same as the military officer garrison system, the fourth rank commander-in-chief must first be promoted to the third rank commander-in-chief, and then to the third rank commander-in-chief.

However, as the leader of the twelve guards of the emperor's personal army, the Jinyiwei's appointment and dismissal of its commanders, associate governors and other officials did not need to go through the procedures of the Ministry of Personnel. The emperor could directly appoint or remove them, reflecting its nature as a "private guard".

Now, the oral order for promotion is still on the way.

As for how Su Qing knew that he could become a commander, it was because the attribute plate changed.

The skill points obtained every day have also undergone subversive changes.

50 points for a thousand households, 100 points for a pacification envoy, and 200 points for a deputy commander.

He initially guessed that the skill points of the Commander-in-Chief could be increased to 400 and that of the Commander-in-Chief to 800 points, but the result was far beyond his expectations.

Now, he can gain 1440 skill points every day.

One thousand four hundred and forty skill points are a bit special, it can be said that one skill point is gained per minute.

"Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard?
Good guy!
This is the Heavenly Official!"

Even the knowledgeable Wei Sheng could not hide his shock.

Unlike Wei Sheng, most of these women were illiterate working people.

They did not understand the significance of the three words "Commander-in-Chief", but simply fixed their gazes on Su Qing, waiting for him to speak again.

"I'll give you a chance to join the Jinyiwei.
However, there is a prerequisite: you must pass the test of the Jinyiwei."

Su Qing has never been a pushover. He will not take care of everything for others, but will only give them a chance.

Experiencing hardship always makes people grow.

The experience of having their life and death controlled by others made them hold on tightly to the opportunity to change their fate.

Although, it is already autumn at this time.

However, the sea was cloudless and the weather was quite hot.

Under the scorching sun, I was sweating profusely just by standing still.

After the high-intensity training, the girls not only did not feel tired, but the suffering stimulated the perseverance hidden deep in their hearts, and each of them appeared to be full of fighting spirit.

"All right!
Your perseverance has earned my respect.

From today on, you are the Qingluan Guards under my command, and Lu Wanning is your leader.

In this world where the strong prey on the weak, if you want to gain a foothold, you must have strong fighting power.

I will teach you a sword technique, the Way of the Immortal Sword!"
