Marquis Yongchang, Lan Yu, stood at the bow of the flagship, his sword at his side. At his command, the soldiers and officers quickly mobilized, moving to their battle stations.
Over half a month of sailing had accustomed the men to the swaying of the military vessels and life at sea.
Lines of warships quickly fell into formation, charging toward the Wako pirates like arrows loosed from a bowstring.
The Red Coat Cannons roared, and arrows rained down.
Under the overwhelming barrage, a dozen or so small, dilapidated boats caught fire and sank into the sea...
The soldiers of the Three Guards of the Mansion had expected a vicious battle. In reality, the two sides never even boarded each other's ships for fierce close-quarters combat before all the Wako vessels were sent to the bottom of the ocean.
This level of resistance was almost a farce. Compared to the battle at Elephant Island, no highly cultivated Da Xingzi had appeared.
The soldiers cheered, waving their arms in the air!
