"Let that Matsuura Dalang come over." Yu Zigao said directly.
The men under him quickly agreed, "Yes, Marshal."
It's impossible for me to pass through. Yu Zigao made up his mind: no matter what the result, you come over; if you don't come over, I will beat you.
Soon, the message was passed on.
Fang Zhenghua felt a little helpless, but he wanted to laugh.
Because the people around him were scared to death, especially Matsuura Dalang, he was in a terrible state. As more and more of his men returned, more and more news came in.
He also knew that not all of his men were so cowardly, and some of them wanted to fight back. However, facing the Ming warships, they had no chance. As soon as they tried to counterattack, their artillery would come at them. Their artillery had no way of hitting the Ming warships.
The range is different, and the power is incomparable.
According to his subordinates, if their warships were hit by the Ming artillery, they would basically be destroyed. This was indeed the case. The warships were all made of wood and faced with the current firepower of the Ming Dynasty, they had no ability to resist.
After all, it was a breech-loading cannon made of real explosives, with metal fixed shells, and its power was definitely beyond imagination. Not to mention the even more powerful rockets, which were improved by the Ming Dynasty's Hundred Craftsmen Academy, and their power was even more extraordinary.
The Ming Dynasty now exclusively used metal-mounted rockets, the pinnacle of tubular firearms, unrivaled in their era. They possessed a long range, a powerful explosion, and a high charge of gunpowder, somewhat reminiscent of later rocket launchers, but lacking a guidance system and relying solely on firepower.
Seeing that the call seemed to be over, Matsuura Dalang came to Fang Zhenghua's side, and his original pride had long gone.
His confidence shattered, Matsuura Dalang quickly saluted respectfully, legs together, hands at his sides, and bowed, saying, "Eunuch Fang, may I ask what the Marshal has said?"
"The Marshal wants to see you." Fang Zhenghua glanced at him and said, "I'd like to invite you to the ship to talk. Do you have the courage to go?"
After hearing this, Matsuura Taro was actually a little hesitant.
The enemy was too strong. If I went there alone, I couldn't guarantee they wouldn't attack me. If they attacked me on the boat, I wouldn't be able to escape.
"Why, you don't dare?" Fang Zhenghua raised his eyebrows and said with disdain, "How dare this worthless person from our family come to you? We are not afraid of death, so why don't you dare?"
This sentence was said very loudly, and everyone around heard it. When they looked at Matsuura Taro, their expressions were a little strange, and they were obviously waiting for him to make a decision.
If he gave in at this time, all of Matsuura Taro's prestige would be gone.
With his prestige plummeting, who does he still want to rule?
Song Pu Da Lang gritted his teeth and said with a red face, "Have someone clear the way immediately and prepare a boat. Eunuch Fang and I will go together."
This time, Matsuura Taro didn't even keep the hostages, ready to fight to the death. Whether he could survive or not would be another matter, anyway, the matter had come to this point.
However, he still called his men over, gave them some instructions, and arranged his affairs after his death.
If he can come back, then there is nothing to say; if he cannot come back, then we should quickly find someone to take over and let our son organize everyone to escape.
Matsuura Taro had lost all confidence in fighting the Ming Dynasty. Besides, the Ming Dynasty was attacking Japan, and it was not appropriate for him to take on the challenge head-on. It would be better for him to let the shogunate take care of these matters. It was more important for him to ensure the inheritance of his family.
Soon, the road cleared and a boat came over.
It is definitely not possible to ship out on a large scale, but there is no problem in sending out just one ship.
Fang Zhenghua also boarded the ship, bringing Zheng Zhilong with him, and they rushed towards the Royal Navy.
The Ming Dynasty Royal Navy sent all warships this time, and the remaining supply ships have been stationed on Jeju Island.
It was now the base of the Ming Dynasty's Imperial Navy, but the terrain there was far less favorable than that of Hirado and Tsushima Island, which was why Yu Zigao wanted Hirado Island. But this time, when the battle started, there was no room for restraint.
Soon, they approached the warship and Matsuura Taro and his group were picked up.
The first people to meet were naturally Fang Zhenghua and Yu Zigao. Their expressions were very different after meeting.
Fang Zhenghua was confused and helpless.
Yu Zigao breathed a sigh of relief in joy.
It doesn’t matter whether the task is accomplished or not. What matters is that Fang Zhenghua can return safely.
Qi Yuanbi, who was standing nearby, did the same. He looked directly at Yu Zigao and asked, "General, when will we meet those people?"
"Let them wait." Yu Zigao said with a smile, "I want to talk to Eunuch Fang. Who's going to take care of those people? It would be best if we can bring Eunuch Fang back now. The rest of them can die if they deserve to."
Yu Zigao walked up to Fang Zhenghua and said, "I'm relieved that you, my father-in-law, have returned safely."
Fang Zhenghua felt somewhat helpless and asked, "What on earth is going on? Why did you bring people here?"
"Isn't this because I'm worried about my father-in-law?" Yu Zigao spread his hands and said helplessly, "Those people came over and said a bunch of nonsense. I thought my father-in-law was kidnapped. They wanted to lure me over and kill us all. How can that be possible?"
Fang Zhenghua looked at Yu Zigao and felt that this guy was lying.
He said this because he didn't dare to go over and was afraid of death.
But there is no way to pursue anything at this time. The reason given by others is very clear, and there is no way for me to cause trouble.
However, Yu Zigao's worries were justified. He was now the commander-in-chief of an army and could not take risks lightly. If anything happened to him, the army would be leaderless, and his safety was more important.
