Li Anxin was excited for a while, the beautiful little beauty girl who has been raised for so many years, finally came to enjoy it, the night before the war with the pirates, Li Anyou was busy, and it was estimated that it was impossible to get a good night's sleep. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The beauty is just a maid, without any human rights, it is completely Ang Lee's vassal, if she can get a trace of Ang Lee's favor, it is also her blessing, at least, she can be regarded as a woman, and Ang Lee is not a disgusting bad old man, the appearance of the handsome and tall Ang Lee, I don't know how many girls in the boudoir have been killed, how can the beauty not be overwhelmed by Ang Lee.

"Of course the slave remembers."

The corner of the beauty's mouth smiled, quite shy.

Ang Lee asked evilly, "What do you remember?" ”

"If the slave and maid lose, come to serve the son tonight."

The beauty said shyly.

"Haha! Just remember, Ah Lang will definitely spoil you tonight. ”

Li An laughed, beckoned, and asked his subordinates to take down the big yellow croaker and make steamed big yellow croaker at night.

In the lair of the White Wolf King, the leader of the thieves, the White Wolf, is drinking and carnivaling with his subordinates, for so many days, they have understood the combat effectiveness of the official army, and their lair is less than a thousand miles away from Datang's Yazhou, so they do not plan to confront it head-on, they want to retreat thousands of miles away, and join up with another group of pirates, so as to preserve their strength, and in the future, Datang will turn his attention to other directions, and he will bring people back to continue to rob merchant ships.

"Brothers, eat and drink and play to your heart's content."

The white wolf seemed to be in a good mood.

He had just received a letter from the black wolf not long ago, and had agreed to his defection, and made it clear that he would treat him like a brother, and would never stop him if he wanted to leave.

To get the promise of the black wolf brothers, and it is such a promise that satisfies him, the white wolf can't be happy or unhappy, which allows him to run away boldly with confidence.

"The king, the black king is really interesting, not only promised to take us in, but also promised to give us an independent camp, so that we will not be under the fence, and we can leave whenever we want."

A subordinate said excitedly.

The white wolf said happily: "Then it is needless to say, the black wolf is my brother who worships the master, and he is extremely righteous, Lao Tzu did not make this friend in vain, come, continue to drink." ”

"The king, the black king is enough friends, we can't be too cold, no matter what, we have to prepare a generous gift for the black king!"

A subordinate suggested.

The white wolf thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's right, they are righteous, we can't be too casual, tomorrow you go to Yazhou to grab a dozen beautiful fishermen and give them to the black king as a meeting gift, what do you think?" ”

As a pirate, the best gift he can think of in his mind is the pink girl, there must be a lot of gold and silver treasures of the black king, and it seems insincere to give less, and if you give more, you are a little reluctant, so no matter how you calculate it, it is still the most cost-effective to give a beautiful woman, and it can also touch the heart of the black king the most.

"King, now the soldiers and horses of the imperial court are ready to move, we have to go south as soon as possible, if we go to Yazhou to grab women, we will definitely have to delay for three or five days, in case the imperial court officials and soldiers arrive, we will not be good."

A subordinate said worriedly.

"What are you afraid of, aren't the imperial court soldiers and horses going south for more than a month? It's totally in time. ”

The white wolf looked unimpressed.

"King, it's better to be careful, send some brothers to Yazhou now, we will leave as soon as possible, and when they complete their task, they will catch up with us."

Subordinates are cautiously advised.

The white wolf nodded and agreed: "What you said also has some truth, we will leave the day after tomorrow, now quickly send someone to Yazhou to rob people, to pick up the most beautiful to rob, ugly is not good." ”

"Yes, my lord."

The subordinates received the order and immediately went to convey the order, sending dozens of pirates and a medium-sized ship to Yazhou.

Ang Lee's boat was equipped with large-aperture high-power binoculars, and Ang Lee used the telescope from time to time to observe the surrounding situation, and if he could spot seagulls, there must be islands around.

In addition to observing with a telescope, the compass must be kept an eye on so as not to deviate from course and cause the fleet to run somewhere else.

Of course, the most important thing is whether you can meet fishing boats and merchant ships on the way, as long as you encounter fishing boats, basically there is no big problem, because the majority of fishermen are very familiar with the waterway, and meeting them is enough to prove that there is not much problem with the waterway, most of them fishermen, go to Xisha to catch fish.

"Li Shilang, there is a boat in front of you, it doesn't look like a fishing boat, and it doesn't seem to be a merchant ship."

A Guangzhou official spoke.

Li An went south this time, in addition to bringing enough soldiers and horses, he also brought a lot of lower-grade officials, including officials in the capital and local officials in Guangzhou, after all, many things are very clear to the officials, but Li An knows very little.

Li An looked sideways at the little official, frowned, and said, "It's not a merchant ship, it's not a fishing boat, you mean a pirate ship?" ”

"Li Shilang, the lowly position often goes to sea, and he has some understanding of pirate ships, no matter how the ship in front looks at it, it is a little suspicious, and eighty percent of them may be pirate ships, but the lowly position cannot be completely sure, it can only be guessed."

The little official said slyly.

Li An smiled and said, "That's enough, immediately send an order to send two steam gunboats to capture this suspicious ship." ”

The order was given immediately, and soon two steam-gunboats were heading towards the ships at maximum speed.

At this moment, the steam cannon ships under the command of Li Ang have begun to move, and the suspicious ships in the distance are still continuing to travel gracefully.

Because the suspicious ships have not yet discovered Ang Lee's huge fleet, they found that the ships can only rely on their eyes, and all the warships led by Ang Lee have telescopes dozens of times larger, which can detect movements on the sea surface faster and better.

Seeing that the two steam gunboats broke away from the large army and went to capture the suspicious ships as fast as possible, Li An nodded with satisfaction, the speed of the steam gunboats was much faster than that of ordinary paddle sailboats, as long as the hostile ships were found on the sea, the other party had no possibility of escaping at all.

This ship that can be used is the pirate ship, that's right, it is the ship that the white wolf sent to Yazhou to catch the beauty, at this moment, more than thirty pirates are driving the ship quickly, sailing quickly to the northeast.

"Two black smoke were found in the north, is there a merchant ship on fire?"

A pirate with sharp eyes spotted black smoke in the distance.

"It's a big ship, it should be a merchant ship! Fishing boats are not so big. ”

Another pirate said.

"There must be a lot of good things on the merchant ships, and we've made a fortune now."

"Say what? Our task again is to catch women for the king, or not to make extraneous branches. ”

"This is a windfall encountered halfway through, if you don't fish for nothing, why be polite."

"Yes, if you don't fish for nothing, you won't be able to delay for long anyway."

Several of the leading pirates felt that it was a pity not to catch a handful, even if the merchant ship caught fire, they would be able to make a big profit.

The pirates immediately adjusted their course and sped away towards the black smoke in front of them.

"No, it's not right! It's not that the ship is on fire at all. ”

"It's a big warship, it's a warship, it's not a merchant ship."

"How can a warship smoke? What kind of ship is this? ”

"I know, this is the imperial court's steam gunboat, the imperial court's warship."

"What, oops, we've got caught in the net, withdraw, retreat immediately."

The pirates were immediately frightened and quickly turned around and prepared to flee.

The pirate ship was not very large, and it was not difficult to change course, and soon, the pirate ship turned around and headed for their lair.

"No, we can't bring the warships of the official army to our homes, let's go and occupy the city!"

"That's not right! The warships of the officers and soldiers are getting closer and closer, and we can't outrun them. ”

"Look, it's black smoke, and there are dozens of black smoke behind it, what the hell is going on?"

"This ...... It is the army of the imperial court, and the official army of the imperial court has already gone south. ”

"The official army went south ahead of schedule, oh no, speed up and rush back, and tell the king to evacuate quickly."

Several pirate leaders were suddenly frightened, the official and military steam gunboats that were getting closer and closer caused them great pressure, and besides, there were more warships coming quickly, and this deterrent was definitely not small, enough for them to bear.

They paddled desperately, trying to get back to their lair as quickly as possible, but their pitiful speed, how could it be compared to the steamboats, and soon, the steamboats were chasing after their ass.

Looking at the terrifying behemoth behind them, all the pirates were stupid, and they didn't know what to do.

The general of the Tang Army standing on the steam gunboat, his expression at this moment can only be described by a hanging word, looking at the panicked pirates on the pirate ship, he smiled and shouted: "Stop the ship immediately and accept inspection." ”

The pirates are most afraid of the officers and soldiers, and at this moment, they are very weak-minded, where they dare to stop the ship, they are eager to use all their strength to row the ship faster.

"The ship ahead immediately stopped and was inspected."

The young general of the Tang Army was furious.

"Brigade commander, the ship in front refuses to stop, there must be something wrong here, it should be a pirate ship."

The young general of the Tang Army nodded, and with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he ordered: "Open the cannon, fire the cannon immediately, if they refuse to stop the ship, they will sink it." ”

"Foredeck ready, fire."

Most of the guns of the steam gunships were arranged on the sides of the hull, and there were only three guns in front and rear, but it was still very easy to deal with a pirate ship that was not equipped with guns.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Three cannons came with a salvo and hit the pirate ship.

Unprepared, the pirates suffered more than a dozen casualties in an instant, and some of the ship's equipment and daily necessities were caught in flames.

"Ben will say it again, stop the boat immediately for inspection, otherwise, you will go to the sea to feed the fish!"

The junior general of the Tang Army said loudly.

"Surrender, we surrender."

The pirates were all overwhelmed, and one by one they all came out of the cabin, raising their hands and preparing to surrender.

As pirates, they were usually fierce, but at this moment, they were like pitiful creatures, honestly staying on the deck and not moving.

After the ship approached, dozens of Tang soldiers on the steam gunboat immediately jumped into the pirate ship, controlled the pirates, and entered the warehouse to search to see if there were any other fish that had slipped through the net. ”

"That's a lot! All of them added up to more than thirty people, all of whom were tied up. ”

The young general of the Tang Army smiled and asked his subordinates to tie up all these suspicious guys.

Li An, who was a few miles behind, had already seen everything that was happening ahead with a telescope, and Li An breathed a sigh of relief when he saw these suspicious guys being arrested.

Needless to say, these suspicious guys are undoubtedly pirates, and their next job is to interrogate them and get valuable information from their mouths.

If all goes well, you may be able to obtain a lot of important information about the pirate lair, so that you can break through the pirate lair very smoothly and make your own losses very small.

"Li Shilang, the people on the ship have been recruited, they are indeed pirates, there are thirty-six people in total."

The little official reported excitedly.

"Oh, it's really a pirate, what else did you ask?"

Li An asked curiously.

"The trial hasn't started yet?"

"So be it! Separate them for interrogation to prevent them from colluding with each other. ”

Ang Lee demanded.

"Yes, Li Shilang, I understand."

The servant disembarked and ran to the steam gunboat and began to interrogate the pirates.

The process of the trial was very fast, and under coercion and inducement, most of the pirates were recruited and told everything they knew, and they were all interrogated separately, so that many of the results of the examination could be verified by each other, and they were not afraid of telling lies.

In the evening, the little official finally reviewed all the information he could produce, wrote it on a piece of paper in a very orderly manner, and respectfully presented it to Li An.

"Not bad! There are so many things to be examined. ”

Li An took the result of the trial and nodded with great satisfaction.

"Li Shilang, according to your orders, these pirates will be tried separately, and the situation they confess will be compared, and the situation that can be determined is here."

The little official said treacherously.

Li An took a closer look, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, these pirates are all dying, and they still have to go to Yazhou to rob beautiful women, they really don't know whether they are alive or dead.

The information about the pirate's lair explained by these pirates provided great convenience to Ang Lee, and these circumstances were extremely important to Ang Lee, especially the hydrological information near the pirate's lair.

After all, most of the fleets led by Ang Lee are large ships, and the draft is relatively deep, so once they encounter a reef, they will be in trouble.

The archipelago area where the pirate's lair is located is full of islands and reefs, and there are many shallow drafts, and if you are not careful, large ships will run aground there.

According to the pirates' explanation, Li Ang redrew a map of the Xisha sea conditions, and on this drawing, there was not only the location and distribution of each island, but also the water depth information of each area, and the distribution of reefs.

After careful comparison, Ang Lee asked the painter to make dozens of copies and send them to each ship, so that the captains of each ship could understand the hydrological characteristics of the pirate area.
