The night enveloped the sea, and the stars were dotted, shining in the boundless darkness.
The waves on the sea were rough and rolling, accompanied by bursts of roaring sounds.
The moon hung in the sky, emitting a faint light that illuminated the vast expanse of the sea.
The originally dark night also had a little light due to the appearance of the moon.
A fleet was wandering quietly on the sea, reflecting the stars on the sea, like a galaxy, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
The fleet traveling on the sea is like wandering on the stars, with magnificent waves.
"Li Jin, look at the good things you have done!"
Lan Yu was furious and vented her anger on Li Jin.
"It's because of you that this group of Japanese pirates disappeared right before our eyes."
"I want to report to the emperor and ask him to punish you!!"
In the evening, Lan Yu had been advising Li Jin to send troops quickly to annihilate all the Japanese pirates in front of him.
Because once night comes, the Japanese pirates are familiar with the terrain and sea, and they will definitely be able to throw themselves and others away.
Although his fleet is powerful and travels extremely fast, if it goes into the night, his side has no advantage at all.
Any normal person will know that running wildly on the ocean without a specific route will only lead to a miserable death.
What's more, the visibility is even worse at night, and you might hit a rock without even noticing it.
Lan Yu was anxious to get angry, but Li Jin was as steady as a rock. He kept finding various excuses to frustrate Lan Yu, but did not give orders to attack.
The supreme commander of this fleet is Li Jin, and this fleet was brought out by Li Jin, so he naturally obeys Li Jin's advice.
Even if Lan Yu wants to seize power, there is no hope, not to mention that Li Jin still has Shang Fang's sword in his hand.
Time passed like this, amidst Lan Yu's rage and Li Jin's deliberate indulgence.
Until the sun's big red body completely sank into the sea, until the moon replaced the sun and hung high in the sky, emitting a faint blue light under the refraction of the sea.
However, the moon looks very big, but it is just an illusion. The light it emits is not even one billionth of that of the sun, and it cannot provide sufficient vision for Li Jin to track the enemy.
When the surroundings became completely dark, Li Jin ordered the ships to move forward slowly and no longer chase the Japanese pirate ships ahead.
The fleet wandered on the sea for another day, but still found nothing.
Lan Yu yelled at Li Jin, but Li Jin was too lazy to pay attention to Lan Yu and just said lightly:
"Go back and rest. We'll see for ourselves after tomorrow."
After saying that, Li Jin turned around and walked towards the lounge.
Lan Yu glared at Li Jin with hatred, and beat the side of the ship unwillingly.
Zhu Di was in the same mood as Lan Yu.
As Xu Da guessed, Zhu Di had already blended into Li Jin's navy and became a general flag officer.
This time I heard that there was going to be an expedition to exterminate the Japanese pirates. Zhu Di's team was drafted into the army as one of the teams that performed well.
During these days in Shanghu County, Zhu Di learned a lot.
Gun shooting, artillery shooting, hand-to-hand combat, formations, naval combat and swimming, etc.
As long as he was taught in the military, Zhu Di could learn it as soon as he learned it. He seemed to be born to fight, a true war madman and the seed of a leading soldier.
It is precisely because of his outstanding performance that he passed many assessments in the navy of Shanghu County and was promoted to the position of general flag as quickly as possible.
Some of the comrades in the same period were still big-headed soldiers at this time.
After Zhu Di learned that he had been selected to participate in the war to eliminate Japanese pirates, he was so excited that he did not sleep well for two consecutive days.
It is said that armed with sharp weapons, murderous intention arises from within.
Zhu Di has been working hard on the training field for the past two months, isn't it just to kill the enemy, serve the country, and avenge the people of Ming Dynasty?
Isn't it just for the ambition to eat Japanese pirate meat and laugh and drink Japanese pirate blood when thirsty?
Isn’t it to defend the Ming Dynasty’s territory and prevent foreigners from invading the Ming Dynasty again?
A man should hold a three-foot sword, walk across the battlefield, and wrap his body in horse leather, so as to live up to the name of a hero.
Zhu Di was full of enthusiasm and joined the naval fleet. Although it was not a flagship, it was still a second-level Galen ship, extremely huge.
Unfortunately, although Zhu Di was full of ambitions, he found that his ambitions were difficult to achieve after entering the sea.
The sea is so vast that you can't even see a few birds, let alone enemies.
In addition, after going to sea, the sea surface was rough, which was completely different from the sea surface in the port where I usually trained.
The bumpy boat made Zhu Di vomit even though he was familiar with water.
Vomiting in vain for three days was like a basin of cold water pouring down the head of his pocket, wiping out all Zhu Di's ambitions without a trace.
Until today, I finally saw the so-called Japanese pirates.
Although those Japanese pirates looked very shabby, and the number of ships in the fleet was pitiful.
But no matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are nothing more than meat. At least they can satisfy his craving. Otherwise, if this continues, Zhu Di will feel like he is going crazy.
After the combat readiness order was issued, Zhu Di ran to his position skillfully, with an artillery in front of him.
Zhu Di slowly turned the muzzle of the cannon so that the cannon was facing the Japanese pirate fleet.
Seeing that the distance between the two parties was getting closer and closer, Zhu Di's nervous palms were sweating a little, but the light in his eyes was getting brighter and brighter.
Zhu Di was confident that as long as he reached the shooting range, he could blow up the opponent's ship with one shot.
Just as Zhu Di cocked his ears and waited for the order to fire, an order was issued from the direction of the flagship not to fire at will.
The speed of the ship also slowed down, and it kept a distance of twenty nautical miles from the Japanese pirate fleet.
Neither take the initiative to eliminate the opponent, nor allow the opponent to fire on you.
This operation instantly made Zhu Di extremely frustrated.
What he felt at this moment was that I had taken off my pants and was just waiting to have sex. You want to do this for me?
Zhu Di kept enduring like this, thinking that Li Jin just wanted to play tricks on the other party, and in the end he would use cannons to deal with these Japanese pirates.
But until the sun went down and the moon shone high, Zhu Di did not receive the order to fire.
But now even if the flagship orders to fire, Zhu Di doesn't know where to fire. The sky has darkened and there is no field of view to provide a gauge.
No matter how good Zhu Di was in shooting, he still couldn't shoot blindly without a field of vision.
After the flagship issued an order to rest in place, Zhu Di angrily punched the boat gang next to him.
"What is Li Jin doing?"
Zhu Di roared angrily. Although Li Jin was his chief officer, when he met such an officer, Zhu Di actually had the urge to be like Xiang Yu.
Back then, Xiang Yu, under the leadership of Song Yi, rescued Hebei, but Song Yi was afraid of the enemy and stopped moving forward, delaying the opportunity to fight.
In a rage, Xiang Yu gave Song Yi a set of health care supplies, and then sent his troops northward, burning cauldrons and boats, and defeated the 200,000 Qin army.
In Zhu Di's view, Li Jin's move was no different from Xiang Yu's, which delayed the opportunity for fighting and caused the enemy to escape. He wished he could give Li Jin a set of health care.
The gunner next to him, Sun Dapao, came to Zhu Di at this moment and comforted him:
"Ma Di, don't say that, sir. There must be a reason for him to do what he does."
Sun Dapao is an authentic Yiwu native. When Yiwu flooded, Sun Dapao almost starved to death. It was because of Li Jin that Sun Dapao was able to survive.
There are many people like Sun Dapao in the navy, and all of them regard Li Jin as their benefactor.
They were willing to enlist in the army partly because of the generous remuneration, but partly because of Li Jin's face.
After all, Li Jin's kindness is deeply rooted in the hearts of Yiwu people.
In the minds of these Yiwu people, Li Jin's decisions must be strictly followed, because Li Jin never makes mistakes.
Sun Dapao is one of them. His real name is not Dapao, but because of his accuracy, the military simply calls him Dapao.
Over time, Sun Dapao's name became this.
Zhu Di and Sun Dapao have a very good relationship, and they think that Zhu Di's cannon skills were taught by Sun Dapao.
But now Zhu Di uses the surname of Empress Ma, and remains anonymous. He usually has no airs and can really mingle with the soldiers.
When Zhu Di heard what Sun Dapao said, he could only put away his depression and said with a forced smile:
"hope so."
Seeing Zhu Di's listless look, Sun Dapao slowly approached Zhu Di's ear and whispered:
"Didn't you notice that several clippers on our left disappeared at some point?"
Zhu Di was startled and looked behind him, but due to the darkness of the night, his eyes were eventually submerged in the darkness.
But after hearing what Sun Dapao said, Zhu Di seemed to have thought of something, and expectations suddenly rose in his heart.
"Stop thinking so much and rest quickly!"
