The waves gently crashed on the beach, and in the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, there were many seabirds, flying around the island, and then falling into a dense forest.

It is a tranquil medium-sized island with hundreds of fishermen, all of whom depend on men for fishing and women for their livelihood.

Although it is located in the middle of the sea, there are many dangers, and there are many pirate threats, so it is not easy to survive.

But in any case, it is better than being exploited by the government and the inferior gentry on land before, and the whole family is ready to starve to death.

On this day, at three o'clock, this medium-sized and large island, which was originally very calm, suddenly became lively.

Ships flying various pirate flags sailed into the northern bay of the island, and anchored in the bay one after another.

"This ...... With so many boats, what are you doing in our village? ”

"Baby, speak quietly, these people are ruthless people who kill people without blinking."

"Our village, following these ruthless people all these years, can basically survive, it is stronger than the original on the mainland, don't offend these people, lest they retaliate."

"But...... But so many people come to our remote place, how much food do they have to hand over! ”……

On this remote medium-sized island, hundreds of villagers are talking in panic as they watch the large and small ships that keep arriving in the northern harbor of this island.

Generally speaking, even the most ferocious pirates have certain principles on the various inhabited islands of the sea.

Otherwise, it is easy to have an accident at sea, and you can count on the people living on these islands to save your own life.

After all, there are unforeseen circumstances, and no one dares to determine whether they will be unlucky one day, and they always have to leave a bottom line.

A few hours later, when no more ships entered, there were more than two hundred large and small pirate ships gathered here!

Although most of them are small boats, they are also amazing and can scare a lot of people.

The fishermen of the fishing village, who had never seen such a spectacular scene, were so frightened that they hid back in their homes, and the fishing boats were all pulled ashore, and they did not dare to catch their breath.

As the initiator of the party, the two great pirate forces came here before everyone else.

They had already informed the person in charge of the fishing village here in advance and told them to stay honest.

As long as the fishermen don't make trouble on their own, they will never harm them on the island, and they will just stay here for two days and then leave on their own.

Where can the fishermen afford pirates like them?

Seeing that these uninvited guests were polite to them, although they were apprehensive, they didn't dare to disobey, so they had to obey orders honestly.

The elders of the fishing village also came forward, and each family gathered some salted fish and other catches, and collected some crab shellfish, sea vegetables and other things on the beach to give to these pirates, which was regarded as their dedication.

Several elders of the fishing village are busy assuring that their villagers will be obedient.

Of course, these pirates were not polite to them, and they readily accepted all these filial piety materials.

They knew that if they didn't take it, they would make the fishermen even more afraid, so as not to disturb the mood of themselves and others.

When these big and small pirate leaders came to this big island with their ships, the waters around this place had already been emptied by everyone, in order to keep it secret.

The leaders of the two great forces also asked their subordinates and the fishermen on the island to erect a fairly large simple grass hut on the beach of the bay as the meeting place for these pirate leaders this time.

After all, it is a temporary place, and it is not as good as the pirates' lair, and the conditions are still relatively simple.

The two pirate leaders who initiated the party did not pretend to be rich men, but only provided food and drinks to the pirate leaders who came ashore one after another on the island.

As for their men, they simply solved the problem of food on their own boats.

At the same time, the two leaders also asked the pirate leaders to restrain their men and not let them go to the island, so as not to harass the fishermen who went to the island.

In this regard, the pirate leaders also nodded and agreed, after all, they are going to huddle together to keep warm and discuss how to deal with the naval fleet of the Ming Dynasty, where do they have the heart to do nonsense here.

When all the pirate leaders landed on the shore, they all entered the big grass hut that had been erected here in advance, and everyone sat in a circle in the big grass hut regardless of the guest or host. Book Bar

This is not anyone's lair, and they are all the leaders of pirates in this area, within a radius of hundreds of miles, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior on the surface, so it is more casual to sit down.

Because of the limited conditions, there were not even a few sets of tables and chairs in this temporary meeting room, so the two pirate leaders called for some straw mats and straw mats, which were spread on the ground for the pirate leaders to sit on.

This large grass shed is open, with an open perimeter and only one roof.

Any situation around, sitting in the grass hut, you can see it at a glance, and you don't have to worry about your home being ambushed by the black.

Therefore, the pirate leaders who landed on the shore were also very relieved, and each of them only brought their own right-hand men such as the second and third masters ashore, and sat down under the big grass hut together.

However, because this time the gathering of the thieves was provoked by the two pirate leaders, the two of them were politely pushed to the left and right positions of the upper hand and sat down.

Now these pirates also know that among these people, these two are the strongest, have the most ships, and have the most subordinates, so it is natural to let the two of them call the shots.

People like them, acting at sea, robbing and killing people everywhere and setting fires, to see who is the strongest, who can have a greater say.

Even if these two people are not the most senior, the late time to settle in the Shandong Peninsula does not prevent the two of them from standing among the thieves at the moment.

So let these two leaders preside over this pirate gathering, but not many people have an opinion.

Liang Yi, the leader of the pirates, was not polite, and after a little excuse, he sat in the top position, and next to him sat on his right hand was a bald burly man.

This guy is called Wang Qiang, known as Bald Qiang, a warrior monk who was expelled from the monk's temple because he violated the precepts, and he has real kung fu under his hands.

He was a real man of all kinds.

Once when he went ashore to rob, he led people to kill a small village of more than 100 people, and a real chicken and dog were not left, and even women and children did not leave any living mouth afterwards.

Among this group of people, the strength of the bald head is also relatively strong.

Now he has thirty or forty ships under his command and thousands of subordinates, so it is natural to sit in the position of Liang Yi's subordinates, who has fifty or sixty ships.

Although everyone sat down in no particular place, the pirate leaders also knew their own situation, so they seemed to sit at random, but these pirate leaders also found their own seats according to their respective strengths.

Like the two Xie brothers, who are the most down-and-out now, they turned out to be medium-sized forces entrenched in the waters around Dengzhou Mansion.

The unfortunate ones were found by a Ming court detachment before, but with just one shelling, they all destroyed their brothers' nests, and they were almost wiped out by the Royal Navy a few days ago.

Now under his command, there are only about 200 old and weak people left, so although he came along, after he entered the grass shed, he consciously sat down in the most advanced position, not daring to be arrogant.

As for the subordinates of these pirate leaders, they all sat behind their respective leaders.

In this way, it is clear and clear, and you can see who is in the same group as whom.

Obviously, on the side of Liang Yi, who is the most powerful here, the lineup is neater, not to mention the anger all over the body, everyone is dressed in a uniform style of indigo blue single clothes, with a blue cloth wrapped around their heads, and their identities can be seen at a glance.

"Thank you very much, Liang, you can come to meet with your face! The conditions here are limited, so we can only prepare some water and wine and coarse food to entertain you! I hope you will forgive me! ”

After Liang Yi sat down, he asked his subordinates to bring some of the prepared wine and food, the dishes were some simple and common seafood, and the wine was also ordinary wine.

The only thing that was special was that a plate of whale meat was placed in front of everyone, which was a good thing that could only be eaten very rarely, and for those of them who were tired of eating ordinary seafood, it was really a change of taste.

But at this time, most people don't care about eating and drinking, they just hope that the meeting will start as soon as possible and not waste everyone's precious time.

Many times, after a delay of half an hour, there will be unexpected changes, and there will be regrets when the time comes.

Wang Qiang shook his big bald head and said directly: "Liang Da is in charge, the wine and food will be done in one go." ”

"Today, our big guys came as promised, and it wasn't a matter of eating and drinking! We have to come up with a charter as soon as possible. ”

At present, Wang Qiang has been almost approached to the door of the house by a Ming royal fleet many times, but only because he was cautious and released many sentinel ships and deliberately hid them escaped the catastrophe.

If he doesn't want to find a way to deal with the great purge launched by the imperial fleet this time, I'm afraid that the next one will be his turn to be unlucky.

Therefore, he is more anxious than anyone else now, but he is not here to see everyone's ramblings.
