Chapter 18: The Living Hades

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Zhou Rui walked out of the nine-star hotel with the support of Li Donghu and Li Dongbao.

At this time, Zhou Rui's face was already pale and his legs were weak.

The chief manager of the nine-star hotel, the lion Holke, learned that Zhou Rui was leaving, so he sent Zhou Rui all the way to the car, and also gave Zhou Rui a VIP card of the nine-star hotel.

Zhou Rui sat in the car, and said to Li Donghu and Li Dongbao with a pale face: "In the future, you must not fight with Xiong Da and Huyi, they are all big wine bags, I don't want to vomit on the wall again."

Now that I look like this, I won't go back to the house first, and go to the small courtyard in the west of the city, so as not to let my mother misunderstand and think that I am going to spend time drinking again. ”

Li Donghu immediately asked, "Major General, do you need to go to the hospital to see?" ”

Zhou Rui waved his hand, "I'm not that weak, but I drank too much, and now I feel better." ”

Then Zhou Rui said to Li Dongbao, who was driving: "Leopard, I suddenly remembered, we have to buy a few cars, and we can't let other people run outside with the cars in the future." ”

"Young master, do you want to go directly to the Liujia car dealership?"

"Let's go to the car shop driven by the Liu family! Liujia Auto Dealership has a relatively complete range of cars.

Drive slower, let Fox One and Xiong Da follow, and everyone will pick and choose what car to buy. ”

When Zhou Rui left the Nine Star Hotel, in a study in the Cui Mansion, Cui Hong, the head of the Cui family, said to a middle-aged strong man with emotion: "Seventh brother, I have really wronged you for the sake of the family all these years. ”

If Zhou Rui was here, he would immediately recognize that this middle-aged strong man was the one who almost bought the two fox youths last night.

The middle-aged strong man pursed his lips, "Second brother, don't talk nonsense, why did I become a pirate, you know best!"

You sent someone to find me, what the hell is the matter? ”

"Seventh brother, I haven't seen you for so many years, and your temper is still so hot?

Then I'll put it bluntly, you should already know that the Zhou family just bought an all-steel battleship and two armored cruisers with the Fifth Fleet of the Red Tiger Empire Navy.

If these three warships are allowed to form combat effectiveness, then the Zhou family will even suppress our Cui family in Ganyang City, and I will never tolerate such a thing! ”

The middle-aged strong man pursed his lips, "Second brother, you took the initiative to provoke the Zhou family, and now you want me to wipe your ass?" ”

Cui Hong smiled bitterly, "Seventh brother, don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, you are a child of the Cui family after all."

Now our Cui family and the Zhou family already have an inextricable grudge, once the Zhou family is really up, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

The middle-aged man's expression immediately became serious, "Do you want me to destroy the three warships that the Zhou family bought newly?" ”

"It's to destroy the entire coastal defense fleet of the Zhou family!

Of course, it would be best if you could snatch those three warships, if you had an all-steel battleship and two armored cruisers in your hands, there would probably be no pirates along the entire coast of the Han and Tang Empires who could compete with you. ”

The middle-aged strong man groaned a little and said, "There are many veterans on the original seven warships of the Ganyang City Coastal Defense Fleet.

If the Zhou family transfers these veterans to three new warships, then at least six or seventy percent of the combat power of these three new warships can be brought into play.

I have twenty-two pirate ships at my disposal, but none of them can compare to these three new warships, and this is too risky to buy.

What's more, the Zhou family still has five forts in their hands, and if I can't get the capital I have accumulated over the years, I will have to lose it in Ganyang City. ”

"Seventh brother, you only need to lead the twenty-two pirate ships under your command to block the Ganyang Mingang first, then the Zhou family's coastal defense fleet, under the pressure of the Fengwu Jiedu Mansion, has to go to sea to meet the battle.

The second brother knows that you have always thought that the disappearance of the eldest brother has something to do with me, and you are very dissatisfied with me taking over the position of head of the family.

However, the second brother hopes that you can stand on the position of the entire family, and no matter what, you will help our Cui family and pull out the Zhou family's coastal defense fleet.

The coastal defense fleet, with an all-steel battleship and two armored cruisers, is like a thorn in the throat for our Cui family. ”

The middle-aged strong man was silent for a moment before he said to Cui Hong in a deep voice: "Since you have said so, for the sake of the Cui family, I can give it a try."

But you have to prepare me 2,000,000 silver coins to deal with the three new warships of the coastal defense fleet, relying only on the twenty-two ships under my command, I am not sure, I must join forces with several other pirates. ”

"2,000,000 silver coins? Seventh brother, you also participated in yesterday's auction.

In order to buy the production equipment and bullet production line of the breech single-shot rifle, the Cui family was able to use almost all the cash, and then in order to build a gun and ammunition factory, they had to continue to invest a lot of money. ”

"Second child, don't cry poor with me here, and you want the horses to run, and you want the horses not to eat grass, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world!

If you want me to destroy the Zhou family's coastal defense fleet, you have to give me 2 million silver coins! ”

"Alright! Within three days, I will raise 2,000,000 silver coins and hand them over to you. ”

When the middle-aged strong man was about to leave, he suddenly asked Cui Hong, "Where is the body of the eldest brother?" ”

Cui Hong said with a wry smile: "Seventh brother, how many times do I have to say it, the disappearance of the eldest brother really has nothing to do with me, and I still don't know whether the eldest brother is dead or alive." ”

The middle-aged strong man said gloomily: "Second brother, I hope what you said is true, if one day let me find out that the eldest brother's matter is really done by you, I will let you know why my nickname is the Living Hades!" ”

After the middle-aged strong man left, Cui Hong's face instantly became gloomy, and a terrifying cold light appeared in his eyes.

At this time, a secret door in the study was pushed open, and Cui Wentao walked out of the secret room.

"Father, can the group of pirates under Uncle Seventh beat the Zhou family's coastal defense fleet?

Many officers and men of the coastal defense fleet were dug up by the Zhou family from Shuonan Town, not to mention that the coastal defense fleet has now added an all-steel battleship and two armored cruisers. ”

"Your seventh uncle's strength is not weak, and he has several second-hand warships under his hands, including two ironclad battleships of the original Barbarian Bull Empire.

If he unites with several other pirates, it is still very possible to destroy the Zhou family's coastal defense fleet.

Besides, if you don't give it a try, who knows if you can beat it?

As a father, I actually want to be a lose-lose ending! ”

Ironclad battleships are wooden or mixed material battleships, with thick ironclad wrapped in outer layers, generally steam-powered, and a small number of ironclad battleships, which will be equipped with sails as auxiliary.

Now the ironclad battleship has basically withdrawn from the naval sequence of the six major beast countries, but in the navy of various human countries, the ironclad battleship is still a well-deserved capital ship.
