The Reborn Wife is Farming

Six of the eight pirates were killed, and two were badly wounded and thrown on deck by the soldiers.

Qi Haoran asked the guard three times, knowing that Fan Zijin was besieged by pirates on the island at this time, he was not in a hurry for an instant.

He found someone, and the battlefield was on land again, so what else could he worry about?

Qi Haoran instantly returned to combat status, and carried Zhou Zhou and several generals into the cabin to discuss a rescue strategy.

Mu Yangling stood on the deck and looked at the muskets of several pirates, and his hand holding the bow couldn't help but tighten.

This is another difference from her previous life. She is a military student, so she naturally knows that not only gunpowder was invented in China, but muskets were also invented in China.

The earliest muskets were just a bamboo tube filled with gunpowder and tied to the gun to fire. It was very popular at the beginning of the invention, but the bamboo tube was not durable, and it took time to fill the gunpowder. It was not as fast as a sword, and it was gradually abandoned.

The musket was invented in the Southern Song Dynasty. At that time, the market economy developed very well, and the Silk Road, whether it was land or sea, was extremely prosperous. Therefore, muskets were quickly spread to Europe. Compared with China, Europe prefers muskets, so they quickly To catch up with the East, not only muskets, but even cannons are first-class.

In this life, history turned a corner with Emperor Sejong, so the maritime trade stopped abruptly after experiencing extreme prosperity, and the pace of east-west exchanges also stopped. I did not expect their artillery and guns to still develop so fast. According to Calculated by the time axis, it happened to be the period when the firearms of the Southern Song Dynasty were spread.

Mu Yangling knew that Emperor Sejong had used muskets before. Although it was not very successful, he could only fire three times at a time, but it was still very good. Unfortunately, muskets still fell silent after being popular in China for a while.

At this time, seeing the musket, Mu Yangling was worried about the weapons reserves of the pirates on the island. If it was just muskets, they would divide their forces to fight. With Haoran's talent, they would definitely succeed, but if there were cannons...

Mu Yangling became worried.

At this time, the third guard was also talking to the prince: "They have cannons, but the power of the cannons is not very good, so the sound is loud, can blast some rocks and soil, and the accuracy is not enough, the subordinates think that they should not have many cannonballs Oh, when we first fought, they could bombard us three times a day, but in the past two days, they only bombarded us once."

"That doesn't rule out that they still have stock." Qi Haoran knocked on the table, looked at the cannons on the ship outside, and asked, "How about we use those two cannons to deal with them?"

"My lord, that cannon weighs a thousand catties, so it's hard to carry it."

They don't have a car, but if they have a car, unless they are armed in advance, if they suddenly run with a cannon, isn't this looking for a bomb?

Qi Haoran said indifferently: "Don't worry about this, the king has his own way. They have five thousand people and cannons, but we only have two thousand, so we must use one cannon."

If it was his elite troops that would kill five thousand pirates with two thousand, he wouldn't be afraid even with cannons. The cannon was moved up to attract the attention of the pirates, and he led the soldiers from another ship to touch it quietly.

Qi Haoran quickly made up his mind. He called Mu Yangling and said, "Ah Ling, you take a boat of people and cannons to land from the southwest bank, and put the cannons here." Qi Haoran had just painted on the island. Pointed a location on the map that came out, and said: "Let the foreigners shoot at the foreigners. I don't want to have much lethality, but the shells must hit them near them to attract their full attention. I take another ship Someone landed from the south bank, we made a dumpling for him."

"Their muskets have a long firing distance, so be careful."

Qi Haoran said: "Don't worry, I will rush forward after they finish one round, so that they don't have time to change the gunpowder. I asked them, they can only fire five times at a time, so can they consume them?" The gunpowder is up to you, we will make a quick decision this time." Qi Haoran said distressedly: "The guard said that the food on the mountain has long since run out."

Mu Yangling also became worried, got up and said, "Take Zhou Zhou with me and let him lead the army."

"Well, I'll leave the guards to you. After you bring the artillery to the place, you take them to meet Zijin first."

The eight guards who followed Qi Haoran were all outstanding, and it was more than enough to form an assault team with Mu Yangling.

The eight guards went down silently to bring dry food and water. The prince asked them to go up the mountain ahead of time because he was worried that the prince had nothing to eat. As subordinates, they must know how to be considerate.

Mu Yangling and eight guards pressed three foreigners in a small boat and boarded another boat. The two boats separated and went on two sides. Mu Yangling and the others reached the southwest coast first. The pirates on the island saw that the big boat was wowing early. Shouted and gestured for them to stop.

The foreigner stood beside Mu Yangling and said in unproficient Chinese: "They are asking who you are."

Mu Yangling raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell them, we are merchants passing by and want to go ashore for supplies."

A soldier handed him the flag, and the foreigner could only take it silently, using a set of semaphore. The other party quickly responded, and the foreigner said: "They don't welcome us, and they want us to leave immediately."

"It seems that they are powerless, otherwise the pirate den will reject the merchant ships that dock?"

The foreigner was silent, thinking, it's because they are acquaintances on this boat, and the other party became suspicious, okay?

Unexpectedly, when the foreigner thought about it, Mu Yangling glanced at him sideways, and said with a half-smile: "Or do they know this ship and the cannons on it?"

The hearts of the foreigners skipped a beat, and although their expressions didn't change, they became really nervous. Daqi's prince arrested them for the crime of colluding with pirates. If...

Will Da Qi misunderstand the arrest of An Guogong on him? You know, he had a very unpleasant fight with An Guogong before.

The foreigners became a little anxious. When the previous emperor was in power, he had never encountered such a problem in doing business in the big eastern country. The new ruler was really unfriendly.

The ship gradually approached the shore, and the pirates on the shore were not only warning them with words, but raised their muskets to threaten the ship, but the ship was not within their range, and they didn't want to make things too stiff, so He didn't do it for a long time.

Mu Yangling didn't wait for the boat to stop, but directly ordered: "Shoot arrows."

The archers who had been squatting on the side immediately stood up and shot arrows towards the shore in unison. Some pirates saw that the situation was not good, turned around and ran towards the island.

Mu Yangling shot all those people to death with a bow. The foreigner standing next to her was already immune to her cruelty. Although his face was still ugly, he no longer trembled.

The big ship stopped, and Zhou Zhou ordered: "Go ashore!"
