Chapter 457 Death is coming
Just when Wang Zhi and more than 300 cronies around him were surrounded by the Qin army and had nowhere to go, the naval battle near the pier also came to an end.

Most of the sixty or seventy ships brought by Wang Zhi were sunk, and the remaining ships all raised white flags to surrender and were captured by the Qin army.

At this time, the more than 300 disabled soldiers around Wang Zhi were also wounded, their faces were full of despair, and their morale was on the verge of collapse.

Even Wang Zhi himself was shot in the arm.The originally crisp white clothes were now stained red with blood, and he was in a state of embarrassment, and he no longer had a bit of chic and elegant demeanor.

At this time, the Qin army surrounding him also stopped attacking.

A cold shout came from outside the encirclement: "Surrender and avoid death!"

In an instant, thousands of soldiers of the Qin army roared in unison: "Surrender and avoid death!"

The sound was like a frenzy, like thunder rolling in, and the horrified Wang Zhi and his cronies around him turned pale and desperate.

At this time, Wang Zhi knew that if he did not put down his weapon, he would only die.

He took a deep breath and threw the long knife in his hand weakly on the ground.He said in a low voice: "Brothers, surrender. There may be a way out if you surrender. If you don't surrender, I'm afraid this is our burial place."

All the cronies turned to look at Wang Zhi.All of them struggled, and after a while, they finally put the weapons in their hands on the ground one after another.

After all the Japanese pirates threw away their weapons, the Qin army, which surrounded them layer by layer, gave way.

Wang Zhi was silent, and slowly walked out of the passage with his cronies.

Every time a person walked out, he was tied up by two soldiers of the Qin army.

Soon, more than 300 Japanese pirates were all tied up and knelt down on the ground, waiting for Di Qing's verdict.

Wang Zhi let the soldiers of the Qin army tie him up, honestly, without struggling at all.

What he is most curious about now is who is this team that made him fall into the trap?
The crowd suddenly parted a path, and a burst of solid and steady footsteps came.

Wang Zhi raised his eyes and saw a tall general with piercing eyes but disheveled hair, and a slightly ferocious bronze mask on his face, walking slowly towards him with a few burly and capable followers .

The general walked up to Wang Zhi with a stern look, looked at Wang Zhi with a slight surprise in his expression, and said coldly: "You are Wang Zhi who is known as the Sea Dragon King?"

Wang Zhizhi is also a person who has seen big winds and waves.

Although the general with the bronze mask in front of him has a strong aura that makes people feel suffocated and trembling.

He knew that it was a powerful aura cultivated by commanding the army over the years, but he was also a hero after all.So although I feel pressure, I can still deal with it calmly.

"My man is Wang Zhi, I don't know where the general came from?"

Wang Zhi looked at Di Qing calmly, and asked concisely.

"Okay, I have a bit of courage. Since you are now a prisoner and your death is not far away, I might as well tell you. In the future, you will be General Di Qing, under the command of the Prince Regent of the Ming Dynasty. By the order of the Prince Regent Come to encircle you and wait for Japanese pirates, can you hear clearly?"

Although Wang Zhi's base is on the sea, he still has a little understanding of the general trend of the world today.

But at this time, after all, it is an era of relying on horses and horses to transmit information, and the information is often blocked and sluggish.

He knew that Jiang Chuan, a fierce man who rose to fame in Liaodong, wiped out the Manchu Tartars in just one year, and was named King of Qin by the court.

But he didn't know that now Jiang Chuan had taken over the capital and became the regent whose power overwhelmed the world and even put the emperor under house arrest.

But he had heard of Di Qing's name.

He didn't expect that he would fall into Di Qing's hands.

After a while, he let out a long sigh and said, "I, Wang Zhi, fell into the hands of General Di today, and I was not wronged. It's just that I don't know something, and I ask General Di to clarify."

Di Qing said coldly: "Since your death is not far away, if I can tell you, this general will naturally tell you."

Wang Zhi didn't seem to care about the first half of Di Qing's sentence, but asked: "How did the court know about Wang's coming to attack Aoki Erlang today, and set up an ambush here in advance. Please ask General Di to clarify. Otherwise Wang When someone goes underground, he will die with regret."

Di Qing didn't hide from him, and roughly explained the cause and effect.

After listening, Wang Zhi sighed and muttered to himself, "It seems that it is God's will. If Erlang Aoki hadn't attacked Weihaiwei, if this guy hadn't made enemies with me, if I hadn't come here today to fix it, I wouldn't have fallen into this situation." It seems that it is God's will to end up like this."

Di Qing sneered: "Even if you don't come today, the general will come to you sooner or later. As a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, you are willing to degenerate, and you have been in the company of Japanese pirates to harm your compatriots. You have committed a heinous crime. You are the thief on the desk of His Royal Highness the Regent." .Today is just to let you return to your place earlier.”

After Wang Zhi heard this, his complexion was ashen and defeated.

Di Qing didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he waved his hand and ordered Wang Zhi and the other pirate prisoners to be taken down.

The battle is over, and there are various commanders leading the headquarters to clean up the battlefield.

Those Japanese pirates who were injured and survived were repaired, and those who pretended to be dead were screened out and tied up.

If it was on the plain, it would take a lot of effort to bury all the corpses of these Japanese pirates.

But now it is on the island, so it will save a lot of trouble.

Di Qing directly asked people to throw all the corpses of these Japanese pirates into the sea to feed the fish.

These Japanese pirates usually rob passing merchant ships at sea, specifically killing people and stealing people's property. Feeding the fish with their corpses today is also a kind of retribution.

After the corpses of these Japanese pirates were thrown into the sea, all kinds of carnivorous fish in the sea followed the smell of blood.

The dorsal fins of sharks densely packed on the sea surface, and even whales and other carnivorous fish all swarmed in.

Not long after, more than 2000 Japanese pirate corpses were all swallowed up, and layers of blood continued to float on the sea surface, but it was washed away by the waves not long after.

The rest of the aftermath work, such as treating the wounded, collecting the remains of the fallen soldiers, and confiscating the trophies, is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

It didn't take long for the battle at sea to be completely over, and Deng Shichang boarded the island again in a small boat.

At this time, the sky will be dark, and the sun will almost fall below the sea level.

Many military tents and simple watchtowers have been built on the island.

The soldiers of the supply battalion also began to bury their pots to make food, and smoke from cooking could be seen everywhere on the island.

Because there is no shortage of these seafood, fish and shrimp on the island, and the Japanese pirates also have some stocks on the island, so the dinner is quite rich.

Moreover, after two victories in a row today, Di Qing and Deng Shichang also ordered to reward the soldiers of the whole army and condolences to the rescued civilians, which aroused cheers.

 Still two chapters in a row.
