Liu Shoucheng looked at Tang Xuezhi and thought he was a big man, but when he saw that he was a young man in his early twenties, he couldn't help but feel a little arrogant on his face.

I really don’t know what the general soldier did. He actually asked the pirate to help him. He was a baby who was still a stinky baby, but he said in surprise: “Are you really Tang Qianhu?”

When a few hundred households on the side saw that Tang Xuezhi was the Osprey leader, he couldn't help but be surprised. He had no way to connect him with a pirate leader in any case.

Seeing this, Tang Xuezhi also smiled and said, "That's right, the humble position is Tang Xuezhi. Is this the garrison master?"

"Hahaha, it's okay, I'm just curious, but I don't know how many ships Tang Qianhu brought this time." Liu Shoucheng began to care about Tang Xuezhi's people and ships at this time. After all, the task of guarding the baggage this time is extraordinary.

"Well, this time, there are only eight warships and six clutches, with a total of 700 sailors. They are already all the forces in the village. This time, Xuezhi will probably rely on the brothers of Chongwu Water Village." Tang Xuezhi continued to reply, but he said it was rather modest.

"Hahaha, don't worry, Tang Qianhu has twenty warships in Chongwu Water Village, and two thousand brothers protect these baggages, so Liang Zheng, the official, dare not come. At that time, Brother Tang just needs to follow the baggage ship."

Liu Shoucheng comforted Tang Xuezhi very rudely. For him, perhaps Tang Xuezhi's man and ship were dispensable. He was originally disdainful of pirates like Tang Xuezhi. Fortunately, Tang Xuezhi was low enough, which made Liu Shoucheng find a lot of presence.

"That's right, with our Chongwu Navy here, don't worry about Tang Qianhu. Those pirates will never dare to act rashly." Qianhu next to him also said with confidence, but when talking about pirates, this guy even raised his voice.

"That's right, with our garrison here, the pirates will never dare to come."

For the Fujian Navy, although Tang Xuezhi had never seen their warships, judging from their performance in the Battle of Penghu, they were indeed no longer as powerful as the navy in the hands of the eunuch of Sanbao.

You should know that most of the things they dealt with were armed merchant ships of the East India Company. The focus of the Red-haired people was not on the border sea in Fujian, but on the South Ocean and the Indian Peninsula, in the Persian Gulf, and in the New World.

You should know that in the early 17th century, the Spanish Invincible Fleet had more than 150 warships and more than 3,000 cannons. In the Battle of Penghu, there were only a dozen warships and no more than 2,000 soldiers.

The Ming Dynasty used the power of Fujian, Guangdong and Zhejiang provinces, and mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers and more than 200 warships, almost all the strength of the Ming Navy. Through blockade and siege, the Spaniards compromised.

It can be said to be a miserable victory.

It seems that these guys from Chongwu Water Village have not figured out their situation yet, but it has been so much that Tang Xuezhi cannot control the matter. If these arrogant guys have any trouble, they will not want the Osprey to accompany them to their lives.

Later, under the introduction of Liu Shoucheng, Tang Xuezhi learned that another thousand households were named Chen Yuanqing. He and Liu Shoucheng each led a warship formation, while the other two were the hundred households Liu Yongchun and Ning Chengwu. Both seemed to be Liu Shoucheng's confidants.

After discussion between the two sides, Liu Yongchun was arranged to be in the Tang Xuezhi formation as a liaison officer.

Tang Xuezhi did not object to this point. After all, the two sides had not undergone drills and did not know how the Ming Navy dispatched and fought.

On the sea near Chongwu Water Village.

The war drums were thundering, and more than one hundred warships were covered with the sea. From afar, Tang Xuezhi could see a huge lucky ship hanging on a golden battle flag with the character "Yu".

Tang Xuezhi knew that it must be General Yu's ship. As the sails rose, the warships in front slowly started, and the entire warship formation was like several long dragons swimming like a distant sea.

The Osprey's fleet was guarding the side of the baggage fleet, and it began to rise half sail and slowly move forward. However, the two warship formations that Liu guarded began to turn further backwards, which seemed about one mile away from Tang Xuezhi's formation.

The entire baggage fleet and guard team were under the command of Liu Shoucheng. In addition to the two warship formations, the baggage fleet was commanded by another thousand households in Chongwu Water Village. There were more than ten baggage ships, and there were nearly forty ships escorted by the warships.

After all the warships moved forward, the entire baggage fleet slowly started. Their task was to escort the baggage to Yongning Water Village near Kinmen Island. Although they were maintaining contact with the navy.

In terms of osprey, Liu Xiaodao, Wang Minghu and other generals also gathered on Wang Minghu's ship. This time, Tang Xuezhi regarded Wang Minghu's lucky ship as a command ship.

Liu Baihu, sent by the navy, also boarded Tang Xuezhi's warship at this time. There were two flag bearers with him, but when he boarded Tang Xuezhi's warship, he felt a little unbelievable.

It's even a bit funny.

"Tang Qianhu, why do you guys have to put their shoes in designated locations?" Liu Yongchun just arrived at the deck and saw a small wooden sign on the edge of the deck, indicating the placement of the shoes.

"Haha, that's right. Our boat is small. If we don't do this, we may have no place to put things on." Tang Xuezhi laughed dashingly.

"Hahaha, this is true, your ship is indeed much smaller than our navy's ship, but it is also clean. Let's take us to the cabin." Liu Yongchun believed Tang Xuezhi's words, but it looked more comfortable. In addition, Tang Xuezhi's tone seemed to put their navy at a higher level, so this guy was a little fluttering.

Tang Xuezhi was not afraid of him watching this old-fashioned lucky ship. Even if it was a new ship, this guy probably couldn't understand it. Then he took him into the cabin.

Liu Baihu also said as he walked: "Brother Tang, your ship is clean, and the sailors are a little tender, all of them are furious. If you encounter pirates attacking, you don't have to worry, just follow the baggage ship. The baggage fleet also has a lot of guards and a few pirates, and they won't suffer any losses."

Tang Xuezhi smiled but said nothing, but Liu Baihu was even more surprised when he walked into the cabin. Not only was the deck spotlessly wiped, but the various objects in the cabin seemed to have been marked.

When he came to the crew's stay, he was like discovering a new continent: "This, Brother Tang, are you brothers, so neatly folded your bedding? This opened Liu's eyes, hahaha."
