Chapter 326: General Huo's Song (2-in-1)
Since Ji Nantang said that he could get close to the son of Yanshan through the pirates, Wen Sheng, who returned to Lishui, had a good understanding of the pirates' situation.
Now there are no less than seven or eight large and small pirates entrenched in the East China Sea, and the strongest one has almost tens of thousands of people, and the leader of the bandits is named Jiang Hailong, and his nest is on Yupod Island.
Yupod Island is slender, in the form of a ring belt, from Baizhou to the sea to the east two or three hundred miles to arrive, because it is close, so whenever a foreign enemy invades Baizhou, Jiang Hailong always responds very positively, and brings his men to Daliang to take advantage of the fire to rob.
Wen Sheng came up and excluded Jiang Hailong's branch, Zhong Tianzheng mentioned many times before that he wanted to redeem Li with Jiang Hailong, and this surnamed Jiang was undoubtedly Zhong Tianzheng's person.
Following this line of thought, Wen Sheng focused on inquiring about Jiang Hailong's nemesis, Xu Haozi.
It is impossible to know what Xu Haozi's real name is, but I heard that he was picked up and raised by a family surnamed Xu in Zhangzhou, so he followed the family surname Xu.
It is said that relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, the Xu family lives by the sea, does some business, and runs the sea business from time to time.
Forty years ago, the Xu family father and son went to sea and encountered a storm, the merchant ship did not know where it was swept away, it is also a coincidence, a small broken ship was found on an unnamed island, there was a three or four-year-old child on the ship, who had fainted from hunger.
This child has been able to eat more than other children since he was a child, and his strength is also great, Zhangzhou folk worship martial arts, he followed the miscellaneous and learned a few hands, and when he was a teenager, he reached out and pushed it to the convenience of fighting with adults, and he didn't need a second trick at all.
until he grew to seventeen or eighteen. The Xu family made money by doing business, which attracted people's eyes and caused disasters from the sky.
Jiang Hailong and his son brought more than 100 pirates ashore in disguise. At that time, Yupod Island had not yet developed, and the father and son only had so many people.
These more than 100 people looted the small county town, focusing on the Xu family, and when the young man who went to sea with the ship came back, the Xu family had been washed in blood, except for a few young girls and daughters-in-law who were missing, and all the old and young were killed.
The teenager has been preparing for more than a month. killed the Xu family's rivals, and went to the restaurant to assassinate the county magistrate and an official, and then disappeared.
By the time he reappeared, it was seven or eight years later. became Xu Haozi of the East China Sea, with two or three hundred brothers under his command, all of whom were strong in martial arts.
It is said that this Xu Hemp killed people without blinking, and Jiang Hailong's father died in his hands.
Two fights for goods. Turf fighting. has long been on the same fire, and when Jiang Hailong gathered tens of thousands of people under his command, Xu Haozi was still those hundreds of brothers, coming and going like the wind on the sea, Jiang Hailong had no way to take him, until Xu Haozi got older in recent years, and Jiang Hailong got the support of the Dongyi people, which was different.
Wen Sheng studied all the pirates, big and small. I don't think there's anything more suitable for use than Xu Hezi's gang.
If you don't say anything else, you can't get Shaon to look at it differently without any real skills.
So back to the water for a few days. Wen Sheng asked Li Cao for a boat, wanting to take someone to explore Changmeng Island, where Xu Haozi had recently appeared.
Although I haven't found the right person to do this big thing, I can't wait for the opportunity, and I still need to find out for myself.
Li Cao was busy training recruits and people during this time, and he was quite uneasy when he heard Wen Sheng say that as long as there was only one ship, he would take a total of more than a dozen people to sea.
Wen Sheng said: "It's okay, I can't take care of it too much, in case of an enemy, it's not as convenient as a ship." In terms of manpower, there is Brother Yun, I will bring Wei Zong, and it should be almost the same to pick a few brothers with good skills, just record and see if there are good sailors and boatmen for me. ”
Li Cao transferred a flat-bottomed sand boat for Wen Sheng that could seat 100 people.
The sailors and shipwrights are all the top ones, and they are equipped with a team of shield soldiers and a team of marksmen, led by Captain Ji Biao, with the intention of protecting Wen Sheng and Yun Lu and others to return safely.
Ji Biao and Li Congwu usually got closer, and said more in front of Li Cao, Li Cao touched his chin and smiled: "Then ask him to go with him, seasickness, it's natural to be dizzy." ”
Ji Biao came back with a bad smile to tell Li Congwu the bad news.
Li Congwu wanted to cry without tears.
But when he really got on the boat, the situation was not as strict as he thought.
First, this ship was bigger than any ship he had ever been on before, and it was much more stable in the sea than the little Cangshan Tie, and besides, there was Wen Sheng on board.
How could Wen Sheng watch Li Congwu suffer from the crime, and when he saw that he couldn't hold on, he came to a song "Logging" to adjust everyone's body and mind, so Li Congwu really had a good time after going to sea.
Wen Sheng lost "Taiping" a few days ago, and this time he was a little embarrassed to see his master Wang Xi in Lishui, but the old man didn't blame her, so he said that he would help her make another one.
It's just that according to Wang Xi's current physical condition, many things are forgotten when he turns around, and he doesn't know when he will be able to do a good job, and even if he does it, it is difficult to reach the level of "Taiping".
Wen Sheng got Zhang Qin to replace him as early as when he was in Baizhou, and now he has brought it to the ship.
However, along the way, Wen Sheng did not play the piano, but played the flute.
The flute is the bamboo flute she made herself, the sound is very average, and sometimes there will be a little noise, but it is enough to make everyone feel happy.
Wei Zong felt very familiar when he heard this tone, and asked in a daze, "Miss Gu, what is this?" ”
Wen Sheng stopped the flute, and told the truth generously: "Didn't we study it together at the Hanlan meeting, this is "Xi Shengpu". ”
Wei Zong let out an "ah" and said, "It's that simple? ”
Wen Sheng knew that he was surprised that "Xi Sheng" was really played according to the score, like Wen Sheng and even the flute was very rusty, and the skills were not to be talked about, but it did not prevent everyone from changing everyone's mood with just one piece.
Wen Sheng smiled, "Xi Sheng Spectrum" is simple and simple, but difficult to say, she has dealt with Wei Zong a lot, and knows that he is still far from in his state of mind, and it is impossible to get a glimpse of the door of "Xi Sheng Spectrum" in a short time.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart, the person who was most likely to learn both the Miaoyin Eight Methods and the "Xi Sound Spectrum" was no longer there, turned into a brilliant meteor, and disappeared into the sky.
The visions and perceptions he left behind. You must find a way to find a suitable successor for it.
As Hu Liangbi said, after a thousand years, there will still be people who remember his name.
His contribution to this mortal world. It must be used for the right path, for the peace of the four seas, and for the people to live a good life.
Yun Lu and Wei Zong didn't understand why Wen Sheng was stunned, Yun Lu stretched out her hand to wake her up, but Wen Sheng came back to his senses, knocked the bamboo flute down in the palm of his hand, and sang to the beat:
"The four have been gained. Zhuxia Kangxi.
The country is peaceful, and the joy is not young.
Carry the war, the bow and arrow are hidden.
The unicorn is coming. The phoenix soars.
Protect with the sky, never borders.
Kiss for a hundred years, each prolongs ......"
The singing was clear, and the sound of breaking the waves on the bow of the ship was heard far away on the endless sea.
Yun Lu didn't understand the lyrics though. But I felt that the song that Wen Sheng sang at this time was particularly impassioned. It makes people listen to the blood boiling, and it has the effect of war drums. After Wen Sheng finished singing, he couldn't help but ask, "What song is this?" ”
This is the "Song of General Huo" included in the Southern Dynasty's "Ancient and Modern Music Record", which is said to have been composed by the champion Hou Huo.
Huo Quai, the general of the Han Dynasty, led his troops to break the Huns, sealed the wolf Juxu, and composed this qin song, hoping that the country would be peaceful and peaceful forever.
After a day out at sea. The sand boat approached Chang Mon Island.
Ji Biao acts as a guide and guides everyone.
It was the first time that Wen Sheng had gone so far into the sea. A little uncomfortable, he asked Ji Biao: "Captain Ji, in what direction is Dongyi, and how far does it have to go?" ”
Ji Biao pointed in the opposite direction to the setting sun and said: "From here to the east, according to the speed of our boat, if we travel day and night, it will take three or four days." ”
Wen Sheng estimated in his heart and said, "Then this Changmeng Island is almost located between Daliang and Dongyi, so it can be regarded as the only way for the enemy to attack." ”
Ji Biao thought for a while and replied to her: "Not necessarily, there are still a few small islands dozens of miles to the south, and the Dongyi fleet goes to Zhangbai Erzhou every time, and from there it is closer." ”
Li Congwu asked curiously: "Do you say that Xu Haozi will still be on Changmeng Island now?" ”
Wen Sheng said: "I don't know, let's go, let's take a closer look." ”
As the sun sank, darkness gradually enveloped the island, and as the ship approached Changmeng Island, the island's rocks and trees were shadowed.
Yun Lu held a steel knife in his hand and was eager to try: "It is said that Xu Haozi's subordinates have recruited a group of masters, and I will meet him later." ”
Wen Sheng would never let Yunlu take risks, but when she arrived on Changmeng Island, whether it was her or Yunlu, there was no use.
The boat line docked, and the island was quiet, not even half a figure.
The group was swept up in the air, and if it weren't for the traces of the island's habitation, everyone would almost have thought they had found the wrong place.
Ji Biao "tsk" twice: "This is a lot of hemp!" Where did he go with his men? I don't know if Xu Hezi has a wife and children? Even if he didn't, none of the pirates under his command? It's so dehumanizing. ”
He didn't know, let alone look at others, and the rest of the people looked at each other and didn't squeak.
Wen Sheng walked around the island and found nothing of value, and judged, "They must have abandoned this place." Now that there is also a war going on in the East China Sea, this group of pirates moves quickly, there is no burden, and it is unlikely that they will stay in one place for a long time. ”
She said that there was also a war in the East China Sea, referring to the fact that since Wang Er and Wang San successfully attacked Yupod Island at the end of last year, Jiang Hailong has suffered a lot of losses.
Now Jiang Hailong is chasing Wang Er and Wang San's butts and wants to take revenge, Yang Haojian has become a puppet and can't count on it, and Wang Guangji took refuge in the eldest prince Yang Haoyu and turned against them.
Once pacified, if the people in power can't tolerate them, these two are likely to go back to their old ways and turn from thieves to pirates.
Wen Sheng took Yun Lu back to the boat and said, "Let's go around the neighborhood, isn't it that there are some small islands not far to the south?" ”
Ji Biao responded and ordered to go down.
The big ship went offshore, turned around, and headed south.
After nightfall, the sea was very quiet, everyone came to look for the traces of pirates, whether Wen Sheng or Wei Zong no longer played musical instruments, even the soldiers no longer chatted, which made Li Congwu bitter, and when the big ship approached the southern islands, he was already seasick and fainted to prostration, and he was unable to lie in the cabin.
Wen Sheng couldn't bear it, and said, "Let's find an island to dock in front of you and rest for a while." ”
When the boat docked, someone went up to investigate it first to make sure that there was no abnormality on the island, Ji Biao went to ask Li Congwu to get off the boat with a smile, and everyone followed to the island, Li Congwu sat on the beach and didn't want to move anymore.
The boatmen came to ask if they would like to make a campfire and cook their meals, and then set up camp and stay on the island tonight.
Before Wen Sheng could answer, Ji Jiajun, who was in charge of keeping an eye on the enemy at a high place, suddenly made a discovery, and ran down to report to her and Ji Biao: "Miss Gu, Captain Ji, there are lights on the sea on the south side of the island, it seems that a ship is coming here." ”
Ji Biao immediately came to the spirit: "Don't make a fire yet, eight times out of ten you are the enemy." I'll go with you and see how many ships are coming. ”
Even Li Congwu got up, and everyone went up to the high place together, and saw that there were lights on the sea in the south in the distance.
There were three ships coming, and as the ships approached, it was faintly visible that the first two were medium-sized eagle ships that could carry dozens of people.
This kind of ship has two pointed ends, does not distinguish the head and tail, and advances and retreats freely on the sea, and today's pirates in the East China Sea love to use this kind of ship, but the first one behind is Cangshan Iron.
Although Cangshan Iron is small, it is the most agile in the sea, and if it is controlled by a good hand, the ship is like flying on the crest of the waves, and it is often used in naval battles to pursue the enemy.
At present, this Cangshan Iron is like this, although the speed of the two ships in front of it is also extremely fast, the distance between them and Cangshan Iron is getting closer and closer, and they are about to catch up.
The salty night breeze sent a chaotic shouting and scolding, Ji Biao listened for a while, and said, "It's really a pirate." Since they collided, Miss Gu, are we going to kill them, or are we going to catch them alive? ”
Wen Sheng said: "Wait and see what they are doing." ”
"Okay." Ji Biao ordered to go down, tell everyone to be silent, and hide it first.
This side has just come ashore, the lights on the ship have been extinguished, and the shore has not had time to light, and these latecomers would never have dreamed that there are still people hiding on this isolated island.
Li Congwu stood next to Wen Sheng and watched it for a while, and said, "On the Cangshan Iron in the back, the rowers are so powerful. ”
The Ji Jiajun next to them all felt the same way, they often practiced during this time, and said immodestly that in the Daliang Water Army, the strength of the Ji Jiajun has always been second to none, leaving others behind, but if it is compared with these boaters on the Cangshan Railway, it is immediately superior.
Two eagle boats rowed over to the shore, and the leader of the pirates on the ship shouted: "Quick, be sharp, go to the island!" "Grandma's, it's not over to chase up, get off the boat and get off the boat, everyone gets on the boat together, and slaughters the ...... raised by these bitches"
Before the words fell, Cangshan Tie behind rushed to the back, did not avoid it, and hit the back boat with a "bang".
A black shadow rose from the iron of Cangshan, and the man was still in the air, so he shouted: "Sons of dogs, take your dog's head and give Grandpa a good luck!" (To be continued......)
