Li An felt that the pirate king white wolf must know a lot of things, and with the white wolf as a breakthrough, he must be able to obtain a lot of valuable information, especially the things that were burned in the secret room, this white wolf king must know. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the camp where the pirates were held, many pirates were eating, and this breakfast was better than what they usually ate, which made many pirates very satisfied, but at the same time, there were also many pirates who seemed panicked, they felt that they had done pirates, they should not have such good treatment, the officers and soldiers gave them such good treatment, they were afraid that they would kill them, and even, some pirates felt that the food must be poisonous, and they were afraid to eat a mouthful.

The pirate king White Wolf and his henchmen were also treated the highest, and their tents were filled with all kinds of delicacies, many of which they had never seen before, much to their surprise.

The white wolf was so shocked that he didn't dare to move his chopsticks, and his cronies didn't dare to eat it, so he stared at these delicacies with such big eyes, and even some pirates were about to salivate out.

"King, you are going to be executed anyway, why treat yourself badly, how good it is to be a full ghost, eat!"

"Yes, that's right, to be able to eat such delicious food before dying, this life is worth it, eat."

"Eat, my lord! Don't eat for nothing, don't eat. ”

Several pirate leaders felt that it would be too much of a loss not to eat, so they picked up their chopsticks and ate happily.

The white wolf and the rest of the pirate leaders still didn't dare to move their chopsticks, so they just watched these people eat first, and saw that they didn't die of poison after eating for a long time, and felt strange, but they were worried that there was chronic poison in it, so they still didn't dare to eat it.

"White wolf, Li Shilang is waiting for you in the secret room, let's go!"

A guard walked in and looked at the white wolf who picked up chopsticks but didn't dare to eat them.

"Let me go to the secret room, what are you doing?"

The white wolf asked.

"It's Li Shilang who wants to see you, what nonsense, go quickly."

The guard became an uncle, and he scolded violently.

The white wolf is now a prisoner, where is there still the momentum of the king, so he has to get up and go, and the little leader under his command does not dare to stand up, so as not to die early.

In the pirate chamber, Ang Lee is still looking around, trying to find the secret pavilion or something, in order to discover more secrets of the pirates.

"Li Shilang, the white wolf brought."

Li An turned around and said, "Let him in." ”

After the white wolf entered the house, Li An pointed to the large basin that was still smoking, and asked: "What is burning in this big basin, you are pirates, and what you do is robbery, this is no secret, and there is something worth hiding for you." ”

"This ...... These are all burned, who did it. ”

The white wolf looked shocked, it was obvious that he didn't know that the contents of this secret room had been burned by the fire, and he didn't know all this.

Li An saw the sincerity in the white wolf's eyes, this guy seemed to be telling the truth, but these are not important, what matters is what these burned documents are.

"This secret room is built underground, and our artillery can't touch it at all, and when I found this secret room, it was already like this, you are the pirate king, and you actually said that you don't know."

Li An said angrily.

"If I didn't do it, I didn't do it, I'm the Pirate King, and I'm afraid to let you know about anything."

The white wolf said loudly, paused, and suddenly said: "Good boy, you actually planted eyeliner next to Lao Tzu, it's amazing enough, you are ruthless." ”

Li An was puzzled: "What eyeliner, you made it clear, if you behave better, this officer will give you a good idea, and most of the pirates under your command will be released or join our army." ”

"Well, since they are unkind, you can't blame me for not being righteous, keeping these letters in order to blackmail them, but I didn't expect that this guy actually sent someone undercover and burned the letters this morning."

The white wolf first counted down, and then, Zhengse: "Many of your officials and businessmen in Datang have a good relationship with us, and the letters you exchange daily are kept in this secret room, it's a pity!" These letters have been burned, and even if I say them, you may not believe them. ”

When Li An heard this, his heart was shocked, no wonder the pirates could be so arrogant and domineering all the time, it turned out that there were officials and many businessmen who colluded with them, so they could have a smooth ride.

"Oh, this official believes you, tell me! Who do you have a relationship with, and what kind of friendship do you have? ”

Li Anzheng asked.

The white wolf also let go, and said: "Li Shilang looks at this full pot of ashes, he should know how many letters have been burned, most of the officials in Guangzhou, Yazhou and other places in the Tang Dynasty have a relationship with me, especially the officials of the water division, if there is no connivance from them, can I be so free?" There are also many merchants who have made a fortune, and why their merchant ships have always been able to avoid us, because we were friends with him, we deliberately let them go, and they will send us all kinds of information, telling us when there will be caravans passing through our territory, how many goods, how many guards and horses, and when it will come, so that we can catch one by one, and most of the merchant ships that pass through will be hijacked. ”

Many of these are true, but there are also white wolves who add fuel and vinegar to the nonsense, such as many officials in the imperial court, there can only be a few who collude with pirates, most of the officials have not paid money with pirates, but the white wolf is talking nonsense, insisting that most of the pirates have a relationship with him, thus deliberately provoking Li An to suspect the officials of Guangzhou and Yazhou, and destroying the trust between the officials of the Tang Dynasty, especially the officials of the naval division, and once sent warships to encircle and suppress him, although he was repulsed, but this Liang Zi was taken over, and did not take the opportunity to retaliate, How to be worthy of yourself.

Li An said with a smile: "The officials of the Navy Division have a relationship with you, but the imperial court will receive a report to encircle and suppress you every year, and the relationship is so good, and they often encircle and suppress you?" ”

"Haha! That's just for show, after so many years of encirclement and suppression, we haven't lived well, and every year we are arrested by some Xiao Luo, which we have already discussed. ”

The white wolf spoke.

Li An opened his mouth and said: "Whether what you said is true or not, this official will definitely investigate clearly, what about the businessman?" What are the businessmen who are in collusion with you? ”

The white wolf looked angry, and said with a straight face: "The merchants who have made a fortune are basically connected with us, especially the merchants of the Zhang Chamber of Commerce, this Li Shilang should be able to guess it, their merchant ships are rarely robbed, if there is no friendship, how can such a situation occur." ”

Li An nodded approvingly and said: "You are very right, this official believes what you say, but in addition to asking you, this official will also ask all your henchmen and subordinates individually, if you say too much deviation, this official will naturally not believe it, if what you say is similar, this official will naturally believe it." ”

"I've told you everything you know, and when will you execute me, give me a good word."

The white wolf shouted.

Li An said lightly: "Don't worry, when the official review is almost over, I will send someone to escort you to Guangzhou, and after a few days of display, I will escort you to the capital and hand it over to the imperial court for disposal." ”

"You don't talk about credit, didn't you say that you should give it a good time?"

The white wolf said angrily.

Li An smiled: "What do you mean by not being trustworthy, isn't it good to let you live a few more days?" Your Majesty is merciful, maybe you will forgive you? ”

"I am the Pirate King, how can Your Majesty spare me if I have killed so many people."

"Oh, then it depends on Your Majesty's mood, come on, take it down."

After the white wolf left, Li Feiyu took a step forward and said, "Big brother, do you think what he said is true?" ”

"It's hard to tell the truth from the fake, but at least some of them are true, these burned documents should be letters back and forth, but I don't know who placed a traitor in the pirate's lair and burned these letters in the chaos."

Li An said lightly.

"Now we only have to interrogate the other pirate leaders more often, and we can always get what we want by interrogating them separately."

Li Feiyu said.

"Okay, you immediately send someone to interrogate and isolate all the pirate leaders, so that after the white wolf returns, he will collude with the small leaders under his command, which will be troublesome."

Li An immediately ordered.

"Yes, I'll go."

When the white wolf returned to the place of captivity, the rest of the leaders were examined in isolation.

Looking at the delicious food on the table, the white wolf no longer had any scruples, and directly ate and drank, Li An just said that he would first send him to Guangzhou to show the public, and then escort him to the capital, so that he would definitely not be poisoned in the meal, and he could eat boldly with confidence.

Many pirate leaders have been isolated and examined, and there are still a lot of contents to be examined, but not many people know about the secret room, and even fewer know about the letters, but the information learned from these few people can still corroborate each other with the words of the white wolf, so that it can completely confirm what the white wolf said, and it can be affirmed that some people have been in contact with pirates for a long time.

In addition, the review of ordinary pirates is also underway, after all, many specific things are still handled by ordinary pirates, and they have a lot of contact with outsiders such as merchants, and they know a lot of things.

In short, combined with the results of various examinations, Ang Lee can already be sure that Zhang Batian's gang of businessmen must have colluded with pirates, there is no doubt about this.

In addition, it was also examined that there were also pirate branches in Champa and Yazhou, and the pirates had always been hidden in these two places, but they all hid themselves as fishermen, and the most important point was that this group of pirates had colluded with another group of pirates thousands of miles away, and if they had gone south a few days later, all of them would have fled thousands of miles away.

"Big brother, there is really something wrong with this Zhang Batian, it seems that he planted eyeliner in the pirate's lair, it must be him."

Li Feiyu analyzed.

"It makes sense, this guy Zhang Batian is the most suspicious, but now that the letter has been burned, all the evidence has been destroyed, we don't have any substantive evidence, he can completely deny it."

Li An said helplessly.

"It's really hateful, this cunning old fox actually kept such a hand."

Li Feiyu said resentfully.

Li An smiled and said: "It is said that there are also many pirates in Yazhou and Champa, and they are all hidden, but these captured pirates recognize them, and let the soldiers escort some of the pirates to these two places and capture all the remaining pirates." ”

"Big brother, the pirates in Yazhou are easy to handle, but Zhancheng is not my Tang Dynasty territory, and it is not convenient to go to Zhancheng to arrest people."

Li Feiyu was embarrassed.

Li An said with a smile: "Zhancheng is just a small country with a big fart, my Tang soldiers and horses go to arrest pirates, who dares to stop it, if the soldiers and horses of Zhancheng dare to make any changes, they will be annihilated immediately, and the taxes charged by the Huan Kingdom to my Tang merchants are too heavy, and they must be revised to a reasonable amount, you can do this." ”

"Okay, it's good to have the words of the eldest brother, I will send two troops and horses later, and handle these two things at the same time."

Li Feiyu said happily.

In front of the Tang Dynasty, the southern ring kingdom is a small shrimp, as long as the Tang Empire is happy, it can send troops to destroy this small country at any time, but because the people here are too barbaric and do not obey the king, and if it becomes the land of the Tang Dynasty, it will also distribute part of the funds from the central government to help them, which is really worth the loss, so that it can honestly be a vassal country, the effect is still good, and it is also the most beneficial to the Tang Empire.

"The white wolf only has two or three thousand soldiers and horses, and the lair is also on this not too big island, so it is very easy to deal with, but the black wolf thousands of miles away is not so easy to deal with, there are more and bigger islands there, and it is also farther away from Datang, if these pirates hide in the rainforest and fight guerrilla warfare with us, it will be a headache."

Li An looked at the map in front of him and spoke.

"Big brother, we have such a strong force, and we still need to be afraid of the black wolf, when the time comes, find his lair, and just give it to him, just like this morning."

Li Feiyu said excitedly.

Li An waved his hand and said, "Can this be the same?" The white wolf's lair is a small island, as long as we land on this island, all the pirates on the island will not be able to escape, but as far as we know, the black wolf's lair is on a very large island, and there are many more strongholds than the white wolf, and there are twenty or thirty thousand pirates under his command, and the strength is more than that of the countries along the way, and it will definitely be much more troublesome to deal with. ”

Although he is full of confidence in himself, Li An also knows very well in his heart that dealing with the black wolf may take a lot of twists and turns, and it is not easy to solve, and it may even be inevitable to pay sacrifices and kill some soldiers.

And in order to reduce the loss of the elite, Ang Lee needs to recruit pirates, so that the pirates can be transformed into the vanguard battalion soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, so that they can charge into battle and play an important role in the fight against pirates.

With more than 2,000 pirates under the command of the white wolf, Li An plans to leave a few people behind to cooperate with the soldiers and horses transferred by the imperial court to garrison this important island and protect the new county town that is about to be born.

Most of the pirates were to be reorganized into forward battalions, responsible for fighting in the south, and let them act as the vanguard against other pirates, and these pirates had to agree in order to survive.
