Concentricity

Chapter 87

Yu Simian simply took Mo Jinyan on board, and went out to sea with Guan Longfei's patrol team to patrol the coast of Zhendongwei.

Yu Simian and Mo Jinyan waited for the long-awaited verdict, but the long-awaited battle of Nanta Island finally arrived.

On a dark night, more than 2000 Japanese pirates landed from the east of Nanta Island, planning to destroy the checkpoints of Nanta Island first, and then land and plunder from various places along the coast.

After the pirates came to the island, they were completely unhindered, and soon touched the checkpoint, and began to use brute force to tear down the wall of the checkpoint, preparing to hollow out the checkpoint from bottom to top.The guards at the checkpoint had already been on alert, the smoke of the beacon soon burned, the sound of the arrows also sounded, and the carrier pigeons were also released.But in the face of enemies like locusts, the indestructible checkpoints also seem so fragile.

Before the carrier pigeon flew out of Nanda Island, it was shot and killed by Japanese pirate archers.Obviously, they came prepared this time. The checkpoint was like a small boat in a hurricane, and it would be overturned at any time.

Just when the checkpoint was heavily surrounded, a sharp eagle howl suddenly sounded in the sky, followed by another sound.The soldiers on the checkpoint didn't need to look, they knew that the Eagle Eagle was coming, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As soon as the Eagle Eagle appeared, the Commander of the Guards arrived.

These two eagles are exactly Brother Xu and his wife.With the efforts of Brother Xu and Mo Jinyan, the female eagle finally accepted Mo Jinyan. Although she couldn't be as close as Brother Xu, she wouldn't run away when she saw him, and she could still accept his feed.But apart from Mo Jinyan, this eagle doesn't accept anyone, including Yu Simian.

Yu Simian has made a lot of efforts, but he can only live in peace with this eagle, and cannot take any further actions.He was very reconciled at first, but later he figured it out. Mo Jinyan probably has a quality that others don't have, and it is easy for Qinniao to trust him.

Now that Brother Xu brought his daughter-in-law home, there was no need to follow her into the wild, and most of the time he followed Mo Jinyan, except for occasional foraging for food.So as soon as this eagle appeared, it meant that Mo Jinyan was coming, and when Mo Jinyan was here, it meant that Yu Simian was here.

In fact, there is no need for carrier pigeons to report the news. As long as the smoke or arrows sound, the officers and soldiers of the navy who are ready to go will all take action.The three thousand households, together with Guan Longfei's maritime patrol team, numbered more than five thousand, and they all surrounded Nanta Island at this moment.

The Japanese pirates had all landed, and there were only a few people left behind on board, and they were all captured by naval officers and soldiers soon, cutting off the Japanese pirates' retreat.

The navy officers and soldiers landed from all sides and besieged the pirates in the middle of Nanta Island, surrounded by iron barrels on all sides.The Japanese pirates have not captured the checkpoint yet, facing a large number of sailors, they have to temporarily put down the checkpoint and turn around to deal with the sailors.

Mo Jinyan and Yu Simian led Guan Longfei's coastal defense soldiers to land first, and met the pirates who turned around and were about to escape, and the two camps fought hand to hand.

Mo Jinyan's Tuomu bow was drawn in a full moon shape, and with one arrow and one pair, he overturned six Japanese thieves in a row.Seeing Mo Jinyan's menacing approach, a pirate leader rushed up with a Japanese sword.

Mo Jinyan glanced at the torches of the soldiers behind him, and saw that the pirate in front of him was a solid figure, his left eyebrow was only half cut, and there was an obvious scar in the middle, which stretched to the entire left side of his face, making him extremely ugly.

With just one glance, Mo Jinyan recognized that this man had just turned into ashes, and he also remembered that it was this scar-faced man who robbed Nie Yun and slashed himself.After so many years, Mo Jinyan still clearly remembers what happened on that cold winter night. To their siblings, this man was like a nightmare.

Mo Jinyan hung his bow on his body, and drew out the dagger that he carried with him. This dagger was made from the half of the Japanese sword that broke in his ribs. Now that the enemy met, he was extremely jealous. Return the half of the knife to the other party.

After seven or eight years, this man no longer remembered the young man who was almost hacked to death by him, but the young man remembered this ghostly man.Their strengths were very different back then, and they are still very different now, but their strengths are about to drop: Scarface is no longer Mo Jinyan's opponent.

When Scarface saw that Mo Jinyan took out a short knife, he was very happy in his heart, because his knife was two feet longer than the short knife, and in close combat, he had the advantage in weapons.

However, as soon as he fought, he realized that he was wrong. The young man in front of him was much more skillful than himself. Mo Jinyan's figure was erratic like a ghost. His long knife hadn't touched Mo Jinyan at all, and he had already been caught. Mo Jinyan slashed several times.The fear in Scarface's heart increased greatly. This person could clearly kill him with one blow, but he didn't do so, as if he wanted to kill him with one blow.

Mo Jinyan took a deep breath, and cut three times on Scarface's forehead, back, and left side respectively. This was revenge for Sister Yun, Nie Shiweng, and himself.

He originally wanted to kill the man in front of him with a knife, but the situation was urgent and he didn't have time to spend with him, so he swung his knife and slashed hard, cutting off the long knife with Scarface from the handle, and then kicked it, Step on the opponent on the ground, stab the short knife in his hand into the opponent's heart, and complete the revenge in the same way that the opponent killed him back then.Only this time, Scarface didn't have the good luck Mo Jinyan had back then.

Mo Jinyan returned the knife to the other party in this way, then pulled out the long sword that Yu Simian gave him at his waist, and jumped to join the war against Japanese.

This was an extremely fierce war, and it was also a very tragic war. The two sides fought fiercely from night to dawn, and more than [-] pirates were wiped out and captured.This is the greatest victory ever achieved in the Anti-Japanese War.

After daybreak, no one could calmly deal with piles of bones and rivers of blood.Mo Jinyan and Yu Simian stood side by side on a rock, with a look of unsteady shock on their tired faces, looking at the soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield, Mo Jinyan said: "I hope this is the last war. Never do it again."

Yu Simian turned Mo Jinyan's body to the sea, facing the direction of the rising sun: "After this battle, you should be able to calm down for quite a while."

Mo Jinyan looked at the rising fiery red sun, and turned his face to look at Yu Simian's side face: "Brother Yu, tell me, can we escape this disaster?"

Yu Simian turned back and gave him a comforting smile: "I will definitely. Once that matter is over, I will take you far away to watch the sun rise and the moon set with you."

Mo Jinyan closed his eyes, letting the golden sunlight fall on his face, thinking about the wish Yu Simian had made, a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

From the other end of the sea, two eagle eagles flew over. They were covered with rays of light, and the golden sun gilded their wings into gold.That was Brother Xu and his wife. They let out a long howl, piercing the tranquility of the morning and breaking the dull atmosphere. They flew towards Mo Jinyan and Yu Simian with golden hope.

The battle of Nanda Island was the first victory of the new emperor after he ascended the throne, and it was also the biggest blow suffered by the pirates.The new emperor Long Yan was very happy, and with a wave of his hand, he rewarded countless gold, silver and jewels.

But there was no reward that Mo Jinyan and Yu Simian wanted, and the pardon order was delayed.

Mo Jinyan was anxious, and waited for a letter from Master Lin, asking him to return to Fuzhou Shipyard as soon as possible.

Mo Jinyan had no choice but to suppress the anxiety in his heart, and went north to Fuzhou with Yu Simian.It turned out that the Ten Thousand Dendrobium Ship had been built a long time ago, and the court had been busy fighting the war, so it seemed that it had forgotten about it, and no one came to ask about it.The three Wanhu boats parked quietly in the Jiazihao workshop, waiting for the world to remember them again.

The reason why Master Lin asked Mo Jinyan to go back to the shipyard was because the Imperial Envoy of the imperial court had arrived, and this time, it was the same Imperial Envoy Ma as last time.

Mo Jinyan was a little surprised, the emperor had changed, and the imperial envoy, Mr. Ma, was still doing so steadily. This Mr. Ma is really not to be underestimated.

As soon as Mo Jinyan arrived at the shipyard, he was just in time for the Wanhu boat to test the water. Hundreds of oarsmen rowed the oars, and the Wanhu boat slowly sailed from the Minjiang River into the estuary. At the bow, as stable as walking on flat ground, looking at the boundless sea, blowing the oncoming salty sea breeze, I suddenly felt a sense of pride, and the depression accumulated in my heart for many days was swept away.

After returning to the voyage, Lord Ma smiled and called Mo Jinyan: "The current situation has been turbulent in the past few years, and we have not come to inspect the Wanhu ship as scheduled, but we have always kept this in mind, and believe that Master Mo will be able to build the Wanhu ship. .Master Mo did not disappoint me."

Mo Jinyan blushed a little and said: "Actually, what I did was only a preliminary design. It is the masters of the shipyard who actually built the big ship."

Mr. Ma smiled and nodded: "Of course I understand the truth. I have already seen the three big ships. The emperor means that we need five big ships, so we need Master Mo to help us build two more. In addition, we need ten more ships. A big boat with [-] hu, the shape is still designed by Master Mo, I wonder if two years is enough?"

Mo Jinyan said sadly: "Thank you, Lord Ma, for your appreciation. It's just that Jinyan may be powerless, and he has no intention of designing ships."

Master Ma raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? What's bothering Master Mo?"

Mo Jinyan smiled wryly: "I'm not afraid of Mrs. Ma's jokes. You have met my elder brother Yu Simian. He is actually my brother Qi. He is the commander of Zhendong Guard."

"I've heard a little about the great victory in Nantao Island recently. Lord Yu is truly a hero and a blessing to the people of Fujian." Lord Ma didn't seem too surprised, "What's wrong with Lord Yu?"

Mo Jinyan smiled bitterly: "Brother Yu's father is a member of the household department in Beijing."

Master Ma suddenly realized: "Master Yu Yan Yu is his father?"

Mo Jinyan nodded: "That's right. Brother Yu was implicated, and I don't know if he can escape this disaster."

Master Ma pondered for a moment: "I see."

"So I'm sorry, Mr. Ma, Master Lin and the others are also capable of handling the big boat of [-] hu. I'm really powerless at the moment." Mo Jinyan said apologetically.

Mr. Ma smiled: "Master Mo, don't worry, Mr. Yu is the pillar of the country, the emperor is wise and powerful, and he will definitely not be ignorant of right from wrong. Mr. Yu will definitely turn danger into good fortune. So Mr. Mo just calm down and build a boat."

When Mo Jinyan heard Mr. Ma say this, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart, and he thought: Is it possible that I met a nobleman?

Immediately said: "With the good words of Mr. Ma, I hope Brother Yu can turn the bad luck into good luck. Since Mr. Ma believes in Jinyan so much, then Jinyan should calm down and make a good boat."

Ma Daren said: "That's right, Master Mo only needs to build a good boat, the emperor will not forget your contribution."

A few days later, the imperial decree of amnesty was sent to the court, saying that Yu Simian had made great contributions in the war against the Japanese, and had kept one side safe, and because he was far away from Beijing, he had not participated in his father's conspiracy and had rejected his father's collusion. Rebellion, which shows his loyalty to the present, forgives his implicated crimes, and still makes him sit in the East Guard.

At this moment, Mr. Ma had left the shipyard and returned to Beijing. Mo Jinyan thought of what he had said, and his heart was like a mirror. I am afraid that Mr. Ma's credit is indispensable for this.

Yu Simian held Mo Jinyan in his arms, feeling like he would survive a catastrophe.

Mo Jinyan pressed against Yu Simian's neck: "I'm right, Mr. Ma is really our nobleman, Brother Yu."

Yu Simian kissed Mo Jinyan's lips: "I don't know if Master Ma is a noble person, but I know that Yan'er is my noble person, there is no doubt about it. Thank you, Yan'er."

Mo Jinyan kissed Yu Simian back: "Meeting you is also the greatest luck in my life. Thank you, Brother Yu!"

Two years later, Mo Jinyan successfully built two [-]-dhu boats and ten [-]-dhu boats, which can be regarded as a thank you to Mr. Ma for his kindness and life-saving grace.

After the Battle of Nanta Island, the coastal area was calm for a long time.The new emperor sent envoys to the Japanese country and allowed them to come to the Celestial Dynasty to pay tribute once a year. Since then, Japanese pirates have almost disappeared, and the peace along the coast has lasted for decades.

With peace at sea, Yu Simian intends to resign and go into seclusion.However, he received a letter from a person named Ma Sanbao, in which he invited Yu Simian to escort the voyages to the West.

Yu Simian and Mo Jinyan thought for a long time, and finally remembered that Ma Sanbao was the imperial envoy whom they had met twice.Speaking of which, they still owed others favors.

Together, Mo Jinyan and Yu Simian agreed to this trip to the West, because it was their dream to sail a long-distance ship, and now they can go to the ocean in a fair manner, so why not do it?

In this way, the unprecedented voyages to the West began.

Although the sea ban has not been explicitly abolished, it has been relaxed a lot.Yu Simian and Mo Jinyan knew that this was the maximum relaxation that the imperial court could do at the moment, and they were also a little relieved. In any case, the imperial court has already made concessions, and maybe in a few years, it will be completely cancelled. .

Life, it is because of hope that it becomes more interesting, has a head, and because of people who help each other and share weal and woe, it becomes easier and simpler.

The author has something to say: The Battle of Nantai Island in this period is grafted on the Battle of Pinghai in the eighth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. In the Battle of Pinghai, more than [-] Japanese pirates fled. Since then, the Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty have been peaceful for a long time. For a while, it didn't resurface until the mid to late stages.Here is adapted according to the needs of the story, don't look at it as history, just look at it as a story. ^_^

The story ends here, and there will be a side story later, to explain Brother Xu’s problems, so as to save everyone from complaining, but it will be later, probably after I finish my annual leave, and it will be posted together with the new article at that time , Thank you for your support and encouragement as always, bow!
