The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 441 Ready to go
After a quarter of an hour, three half-dead people were dragged over and thrown to the ground.

The clothes on his body were soaked with blood, and everyone was weak.

There was only fear in his eyes, and there was no longer the unruly look before.

"How is it? You should feel better after a good beating. Can you answer my question now?" Lin Hai asked coldly.

The old scholar's Japanese is quite good, and he can translate almost simultaneously.

It turned out that these three Japanese pirates were the same group as those who came to rob them before.

I have been waiting for a long time but my people have not come back, so I am very anxious.

The key is that they will starve if they don't have enough food if they wait like this.

After all, food has always been a very scarce thing.

Money can be stored, but food cannot be stored for too long.

Especially in this place by the sea, people don't have much food in their hands, and most of them rely on eating fish.

Therefore, Japanese pirates must go outside to rob every once in a while.

Save up all your money.

Use the money to buy weapons and ships.

Expand your strength and continue the robbery.

In order to find out the information smoothly, not only this team was sent, but also three ships were sent to other places to find out the information.

They had no idea that Daxia had a navy that could block the sea.

Moreover, Lin Hai had previously ordered that the flag on the ship was not taken down. Seeing their ship, these three people were very happy.

Came over immediately in a boat.

The navy who happened to be trained was captured alive on the spot.

Only then did the three Japanese pirates realize that all their people had been wiped out, and each of their faces showed expressions of despair.

Without the combatants, other old, weak, sick, disabled and women also lost their support.

Either join other Japanese pirates, or return to the Japanese country with money and start a new life.

Seeing them in pain, they pretended to be very pitiful.

Lin Hai had no sympathy at all. They had robbed so much money, and they could still live very comfortably even if they returned to Japan.

The reason why he is sad is simply that he cannot continue to rob Daxia and live a luxurious life in the future.

“Give you three a chance to explain clearly where you are hiding.

If you don't tell, you will be punished even more severely. "

After Lin Hai finished speaking, he was worried that their random talk would lead the fleet to a dangerous place.

"Liu Ergou, interrogate all three of them separately. Let them explain separately. If the locations mentioned are different, it means that one of them is lying."

"Yes, my lord!"

Liu Ergou and his men separated the three of them and asked the old scholar to interrogate them alone.

If he didn't say anything, he would continue to use the criminal law and drink pepper water and garlic juice as hard as he could.

Even if waterboarding is used directly, no one can resist it.

"You are very thoughtful. These Japanese pirates are very insidious and cunning. If they lead us to a dangerous place, we will be in trouble." Lin Tiangui said.

"We must be more careful when dealing with these guys! It is not easy for us to build a navy, and we must prioritize protecting our own safety.

But having said that, we have artillery on the ship.

Even if they want to attract us to other Japanese pirate gathering places, there is no need to worry.

Even if I encounter Japanese pirates, I am confident enough to defeat them!
The only danger to us is getting lost at sea.

A very experienced fisherman must follow and record the channel at the same time. Lin Hai said.

"Yes, the sea is completely different from our land. It must be done by someone with rich sailing experience!" Lin Tiangui agreed very much.

Ancient sailors already had guide spoons, and they generally would not go in the wrong direction.Especially Haidong is not too far from our country. As long as the general direction is correct, record the sailing direction and time.

Even if you get lost occasionally, you can return smoothly.

As the number of voyages increases, more detailed charts can be drawn.

Traveling to Japan will become easier in the future.

As expected, the position given by the three people was different from the others.

In order to confirm the correctness of the location, the man was tortured again.

After beating him almost to death, he finally revealed his location.

“Keep these people locked up and take only one person with you to follow the ship.

If the location they gave was false, they would be killed and thrown into the sea to feed the fish. "

Lin Hai asked the navy to prepare for departure immediately. All the artillery had been installed on the ship, and the results were quite good after testing.

Especially in order to prevent excessive vibration when the cannon is fired, the hull has been specially reinforced.

Even continuous firing will not have any impact on the hull.

It took a day to prepare and inspect the ship.

We also called in some experienced fishermen who were experienced in sailing.

Even the old scholar also set out to act as an interpreter.

Lin Hai offered him a salary of ten taels of silver per month, which made the old scholar smile from ear to ear with joy.

You must know that ordinary people can feed their whole family with only five taels of silver a year, and their lives are quite good.

Ten taels of silver in January is a sky-high price.

The old scholar not only knew how to speak Japanese, but he also had rich experience in navigation.

Because when he was young, he often went to sea to go to Korea and Japan.

He still remembered the sailing route very clearly.

Giving him such a high salary is not only to serve as a translator, but also to help refer to the navigation route.

He was also asked to teach Japanese soldiers to speak Japanese.

In the future, after completely defeating the Japanese country, they will still have to rule them.

There must be enough people who know how to speak the language there.

Lin Hai planned to let all Japanese people learn the language of Daxia after the Japanese country was completely defeated.

Slowly and gradually assimilate them.
As long as the culture and Daxia are completely unified, there will naturally be no desire to resist.

Everything was ready and when it was time to set off, a big problem arose.

Qiaoer and the other three were unwilling to let Lin Hai lead the troops.

In their opinion, since they were fully prepared, they could just let other people attack the Japanese pirates. There was no need for Lin Hai to go there in person.

The key is that the sea is no different than the land, and it will be very dangerous once encountering strong winds and waves.

However, Lin Hai believed that this voyage was of great significance. If he personally led the army, it would boost morale.

Moreover, it was my first time to participate in a naval battle, so I knew more about naval battles.

After all, I have seen many naval battle movies in later generations, which can be used as a guide.

The navy was all participating in naval battles for the first time and had no experience.

"Don't worry, the distance from here to Japan is very close, there won't be any danger.

Moreover, these Japanese pirate ships have also been inspected for a long time and reinforced by our craftsmen, making them safe enough.

It will take a few days at most to return! Lin Hai said comfortingly.
