soon.

Yue Qian, Ji Duo and Yuan Bin found out exactly how many people they had, where they came from, when they set sail, how many ships they had, and everything about the pirates in the Zhoushan Islands.

None of this information is difficult to find.

Yue Qian also found a lookout point to check their armament deployment.

This Wushiyan Mountain, located outside Cen Port, is the best place to watch the pier. They went up the mountain disguised as pilgrims.

In fact, there is no need to pretend, because no one cares.

There are many dark brown rocks on the top of the mountain, so it is called Wushiyan Mountain. There is a sea-watching pavilion. Through the telescope, you can see the busy Cengang Wharf.

Once the gunpowder is loaded, it means that they are going to sea to fight.

After waiting for about a day, they saw the gunpowder being loaded into the ship, and the three Ti rode down the mountain, paddled away, and then headed towards Songjiang Prefecture Ship Division at the fastest speed.

Before the Japanese pirates came, Songjiang Shipyard had already made all the preparations.

Tang Xing took [-] boats and left the Shipping Department of Songjiang City before he fainted. He leaned the boats against the Seven Mountains and hid them.

Daming tied his pockets at dawn.

The main attack this time is the Japanese, who are good at naval warfare.

The starry sky is bright, and the bright stars are far away in the sky, and they seem to be close at hand, flickering lightly.

On the Star Observation Tower of Bosi, Songjiang City, two men in Confucian uniforms with narrow sleeves were sitting, but their faces were solemn and solemn. They were looking up at the starry sky intently.

This posture seems to have never changed, and there is a kind of obsession and persistence in the eyes.

Day after day, the two observed the starry sky, constantly drawing new marks on the star map.

This is of course Li Binyan, he and Belin are watching the sky.

"Pisces, Aries, Sea Beast, Taurus, Human, Yin and Yang, Cancer, Leo, Gemini, Libra, Scorpio, Snake, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, a total of fifteen constellations have been drawn." Bei Lin closed the scroll in her hand.

The yellow longitude, yellow latitude, and sixth-magnitude stars, such as "the table of the longitude and latitude of the inner and outer stars of the north and south of the ecliptic", and fifteen sets of "the map of the lingering into the constellation" with the coordinates of the ecliptic are put aside.

Belin is a Han Chinese. Their family used to be a star official in the Yuan Dynasty. In the 15th year of Hongwu, Beilene’s grandfather, together with the academician Wu Bozong and Hanlin Li Zhong, translated the astronomical documents of the Western Regions and formulated the Datong calendar.

Qin Tianjian Lingtai Lang Haidar Awuding, masters Masha Yihei, Mahama, etc., started at Youshunmen in Nanjing, and jointly translated the astronomy, yin and yang calendar images of the Western Regions, and translated them sequentially.

As for Belin's family background, the two of them have made great progress.

The twelve constellations that are well-known in later generations were translated by Belin.

And the three constellations of man, man, snake and sea beast are unique to the east.

Astrology is a serious nautical knowledge, you can determine your position, you can judge where you should go, the most feared thing on the sea is getting lost.

If Sinan fails, without astrology, it will be difficult to determine his position.

Li Bin, who has the universe in his heart, said that the purpose of observing the sky is to record star maps, and Belin has a bunch of returned star maps in his hands. These star maps come from the records of the heavenly officials of the Ili Khanate.

"Belin, do you think we really live on the same ball?" Li Binyan asked with emotion looking at the vast starry sky.

Belin hesitated for a moment and said, "It should be."

"In the fifth year of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Yu Xi, the prefect of Kuaiji, observed a marvelous phenomenon, that is, the sun, the moon, and five stars lined up, just like the tides of rivers and seas. If it is calculated comprehensively, there is a difference of two degrees before it is full for a hundred years."

"Today, more than a thousand years have passed. The stars in the evening of the winter solstice have experienced the four constellations of Pleiades, Wei, Lou, and Kui, with a total of 53 degrees, and the difference is one degree in 50 years."

"Zu Chongzhi believes that every 45 years and 66 months, Guo Shoujing and Guo Taishi calculate that the difference is one degree in 70 years and eight months, and my calculation is one degree difference in [-] years."

"In this way, 800 years is a reincarnation."

Why did Guo Shoujing conclude that there is a ball under his feet?

In the vast territory of the Yuan Dynasty, there were countless stargazing platforms, and the precession was one of the reasons why Guo Shoujing was so decisive.

And Belin carried on the past and forged ahead, and finally fixed the precession a little more.

What is the calculation of precession?

Calculate the perpetual calendar, calculate the solar terms, and arrange the farming time.

The Ming Dynasty had a Datong calendar, but the Datong calendar has been used for more than [-] years, and it is already somewhat inaccurate.

For example, the solar eclipse in the 14th year of orthodoxy was a whole day later than calculated, which is a great shame to all the heavenly officials!

A solar eclipse is an astronomical phenomenon. The legend of a dog eclipsing the sun has been regarded as a folk myth after Zhang Heng in the Han Dynasty.

"Go to the sky to see!" Li Binyan looked at the quiet sea level and said with a smile: "Hey, here we are. We waited all night and arrived at dawn."

The Japanese pirates' ship was already visible. Li Binyan stood up, stood on the star tower, and said with a smile, "Light the beacon tower."

"This is one of the few real pirates in Zhoushan!"

On the Beacon Tower by the sea, smoke rose from all directions immediately, and the flames ignited soaring into the sky.

Shiba Yoshitoshi was leading people towards the harbor of Boshi, Songjiang City, when he saw a little spark on the coast, turning into a fire dragon, illuminating the entire coastline.

"Lord! We seem to be in ambush!" Sibo Yimin's warriors shouted in shock and anger.

Shiba Yoshitoshi drew out the Japanese sword, and said calmly: "It's too late! Light the forage boat and rush into the harbor!"

"Tiannao black card, onboard!"

Shiba Yimin's order is to ignite all the ships, and set fire to the city ship wharf!

"On board!" Countless warriors picked up torches, lit the forage boat, and rowed desperately towards the port.

But to their despair, when the samurai arrived at the port with their lighted boats, they saw an empty port.

Not a single boat.

There are countless Ming troops standing on the shore, their armor is distinctive, and they are waiting in formation.

Li Binyan said with a smile on his face: "Playing with fire and burning the company camp in front of Daming, isn't it a trick? The battle of my Daming Dingding is the fire attack of the Poyang Lake water battle!"

Seeing that there was no ship, these warriors jumped into the sea one after another, because the burning ship was almost sunk.

They have only one place to go, and that is to go ashore, but they have just struggled ashore from the water, and what awaits them is Da Ming's bird gun.

When the samurai came out of the water, it was a very obvious gentle slope, with no cover at all, and because he swam from the water, he moved slowly during the time he stood up, which was easier than shooting a target.

Seeing this, Shiba Yimin shouted loudly: "Turn around, turn around, go back to Zhoushan, turn around!"

When Shiba Yimin turned around, he saw more than [-] warships. Not far behind them, at a distance of two thousand steps, the sound of artillery fire roared, mixed with the morning sun, and the shells fell into the water.

Daming's battleship is a warship of [-] materials, which moves quickly and has artillery on both sides.

The battleship rowed across the sparkling sea, and the artillery on the ship was roaring non-stop.

Yoshitoshi Shiba commanded the fleet, struggling to avoid the artillery attack, but from time to time, Japanese ships were hit by guns, the cabin leaked, and some Japanese ships were even shot through the cabin.

Wo Nu wailed and chose to jump into the sea, otherwise the vortex caused by the sinking of the ship would completely suck them into the bottom of the sea.

Yoshitoshi Shiba finally waited for the boarding battle, and the ship of Ming Dynasty was approaching. Yoshitoshi Shiba drew out the Japanese sword and shouted hysterically: "On board!"

What greeted them was not the battle of the Daming Navy. According to the instructions of the Emperor Ming, the army of the Ming Dynasty used firearms to solve the problem, so what greeted Shiba Yimin was a large bowl and muzzle.

The caliber of the large bowl gun is three inches four quarters seven, one foot and one inch long, without sights, and has a wide opening. Dozens of lead are placed on the gunpowder, and when the string is connected, the gunpowder is ignited.

The Daming ship was tall and wide, and did not approach. The lead was like a fan, and hit the Japanese pirate's ship with a whistling sound. Only then did the sergeants hook up the Japanese ship and prepare to board the ship for battle.

Tang Xing put on his armor, wrapped his caged hands around the rope, and swung onto the Japanese boat full of excitement, landed firmly on the Japanese boat, swung his hook, sickle and spear, and shouted sharply: "Kill!"

"What about people?"

Tang Xing held a gun and looked around in a daze.

After the baptism of shelling and melee gun lead, there are very few Japanese ships that can resist.

Almost everyone of the Japanese pirates was injured, howling on the deck.

"That's it? Just here to attack the Daming Navy?" Tang Xing took out his flintlock pistol, and with a bang, killed a Japanese pirate who was still resisting.

Burning with anger, before he even started killing people, these people are already howling and don't want to fight anymore?

The highest instruction Li Binyan received was to be lenient in anticipation of the enemy. Although in terms of numbers of people and ships, Ming was only twice as superior, but what about armaments?

How to measure the combat effectiveness of those cannons, bird guns, and bowl mouth guns?

War is nothing more than means and will. In terms of means, the Ming Dynasty mainly used firearms, while the Japanese boats mainly used Japanese knives.

Under this span, it is no longer enough to shout a few words onboard to inspire the will to fight.

In Ship Division of Songjiang City, the Ming army completely defeated the opponent.

So where is Ming's main battleship?

In Wengzhou.

When the enemy launched a surprise attack, the Ming Dynasty launched a general attack on the Japanese pirates.

At the beginning of the naval battle at the Ship Division in Songjiang City, the Ming army had already occupied the wharf of Wengzhou, that is to say, even if Shibo Yoshitomi could return to Wengzhou, he would still face the Daming navy.

Daming's general offensive has begun.

Wengzhou's wharf was conquered first, followed by the branch office. Daming's army completely encircled Wengzhou City from three directions.

How bad is the will to resist the pirates of the Zhoushan Islands?

In fact, before the anti-Ming alliance was formed, each family and ministry had already begun to transfer their own assets.

In fact, Yoshitoshi Shiba led the pirates and carried out their mission as always, abandoning their son.

The main purpose of these Japanese pirates attacking the Shipping Department of Songjiang Prefecture was to attract the attention of the Ming Dynasty and provide cover for their transfer of property.

But the Ming army came too fast, nearly [-] pirates, countless treasures and other things, before they could all be transferred, less than half of the wealth left the Zhoushan Islands and headed for Ryukyu.

The army of the Ming Dynasty has surrounded the entire Wengzhou, and even the docks have been occupied.

After the sound of artillery continued all morning, the Ming army began to enter the city in an orderly manner.

The city of Wengzhou City is very low, and three of the four walls were blasted, and the only one was the mercy of the Ming army.

After the Ming army entered the city, they placed rejecting horses at various intersections. These rejecting horses were square walls.

At the end of April, Li Binyan entered the city of Wengzhou, Zhoushan, and began to organize security work.

On the first day of May, Li Binyan held His Majesty's decree and tied thousands of pirates to the boulder.

These people are all pirates. They have robbed countless merchant ships of Ming Dynasty.

His Majesty said that he would sink into the sea, so he must sink into the sea!

In order to hold the stones that thousands of pirates had sunk into the sea, Li Binyan used more than [-] ships.

The heinous criminals, with blood on their hands, did their best to get rid of the evil. Li Binyan organized the people of Zhoushan to watch the ceremony.

Li Binyan looked at the crowds of people on the pier, their eyes were full of hatred, but they were not pointing at the Ming army, but at the pirates.

If pirates rob externally, will they be gentle internally?Not so, their oppression of common people and fishermen in the Zhoushan Islands is even more disorderly.

Li Binyan stood by the sea and did not order to sink into the sea for a long time.

He seemed a little confused thinking about something, and then he said, "Shen!"

The two Tiqi took out the loud arrows in their hands and shot them towards the sky. The loud arrows rushed into the sky with a sharp whistle, and a big firework exploded.

The pirates who had been completely tied up were thrown into the sea one by one by the soldiers of Ming Dynasty.

The sound of thud and splash came from the distant sea, announcing the demise of the Zhoushan pirates.

And Li Binyan also fully understood what Ming brought to the Zhoushan Islands in this naval battle.

That is order.

An orderly society is better than a disordered society.

Just like the stars in the sky have magnitudes, so does order.

The social order of violent organizations like pirates is the most chaotic, full of various disordered riots.It's like chao gang, who lost the court, and competed in the world.

The Nanya government is the second type. It wants to do well, but it can’t do anything. The court is unable to solve the problem and cannot maintain it for a long time.

And the third type is that the artifact is handed over to others, and Chao Gang is ignorant.

This kind of court must be full of disasters, but it is not impossible to maintain. There are still virtuous ministers in the court, and loyal people outside the court to maintain it.

For example, during the orthodox years.

The fourth type is the appearance of the Ming Dynasty at this time. There is a British lord, and the government is sound. Although there are not many pioneering actions, it is enough to make the people rich and healthy. It is usually called a peaceful world.

The last one is like Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Taizong Wen, who often have pioneering actions, push the national power to the peak, and all nations come to court, with both civil and military talents at the top, good ministers at the bottom, and the efforts of all the people. Call it prosperity.
