Chapter 797: Thousands of Miles Tracking
Tang Zhangwei and Bai Cunxiao were ready to continue to track down and annihilate those Vikings, of course, they took flexible measures this time, and they did not send a large number of troops to chase after them as before.
Now, Tang Zhangwei, Bai Cunxiao, and Catherine have released many squads of people, and the number of them is no more than a hundred, and the number is only three or five.
These people, either on horseback or on donkeys, tried to find out about North African pirates and Vikings.
Many people have heard a little bit of news, and some have disappeared forever.
Naturally, these missing people will never be found.
These missing people, their lives have become very miserable.
Tang Zhangwei sent more people to search for those who had disappeared, but more people disappeared again.
Most of these people did not die at the hands of Vikings, but were mostly killed by North African pirates, who were allies of the Vikings.
These North African pirates, each of them is more cunning than the other, and all of these people are monkey spirits.
In fact, countless people know that not every pirate is as impulsive as those Vikings, and most of them are far more rational than the average naval officer.
The people sent by Tang Zhangwei and Bai Cunxiao heard a little rumor, that is, these Nordic pirates, when they knew that they were being chased and killed by the spies sent by Tang Zhangwei, they acted together with their North African accomplices, and as a result, they caught those Tang Zhangwei's subordinates off guard.
Tang Zhangwei and Bai Cunxiao summoned those Datang naval officers to lose their temper, and they blamed these Datang naval officers for letting those North African pirates go and letting those North African pirates run rampant on the territory of Datang.
Not every naval officer of the Tang Dynasty can withstand that kind of pressure, because those North African pirates secretly gave some money to those naval officers of the Tang Dynasty, so that they could raise their noble hands and let those North African pirates get a way out.
In those oases deep in the deserts of North Africa, many people are producing muskets. These weapons, made by the engineers of the Eastern Roman Empire and the local technicians of the Tang Dynasty, were only openly manufactured in the oases inhabited by North African tribes.
Muskets have always been sold very well, and those who run casinos, those who commit adultery, need muskets.
In fact, these people also understand that the production of muskets is nothing more than licking blood from the edge of the knife, but these people just want to make a living like this.
When these people were bent on making muskets, those Vikings lived a comfortable life.
These people rely on these muskets to find a way to eliminate those who oppose them.
After all, for these Vikings, muskets are muskets, and when they have muskets, they have the capital to talk to the officers of the Tang Dynasty.
Relying on those muskets, these Vikings had a good life, but Tang Zhangwei and Bai Cunxiao were ordered to pursue the spies of those Vikings and North African pirates.
Ye Fuqi is such a spy, he rode a camel, drank honey water, and finally begged a few Moors to take him into an oasis in a North African tribe, I wanted to make a meritorious service, but I didn't expect that it was full of heroes, these people all had muskets in their hands, any one of these firearms, once the fire went off, there would be a life on the table.
Suddenly, Ye Fuqi, who was still in good spirits just now, was in a cold sweat.
When Ye Fuqi was tracking down the Viking pirates and the North African pirates, he always blamed himself for not having enough manpower, and he had no way to fight those Vikings for a while, but once he and those Vikings really did it, he had to sigh that those Vikings were too powerful.
The Vikings are too powerful, these North African pirates are even more powerful, and the North African pirates have a group of allies, they have their own musket factories in the desert oasis, those trolls, those ammunition, all make Ye Ye Fu anxious.
After all, he only brought four of his subordinates, and two of them were the previous ones who caught fast, and they did this quickly, although they could have eyesight, but when the white knife came in and the red knife came out, they might not be as useful as others.
Ye Fuqi's four subordinates are Yan Haishan, Xue Siming, Wu Dongpu, and Mao Lei Ming.
Among them, Yan Haishan and Xue Siming used to be in charge of the work of street officials.
When they heard that the Vikings were chasing Vikings and had money, they hurried over and recommended themselves to catch the pirates, but they didn't expect that those Vikings were not easy to mess with.
As soon as they fought with the Vikings, they found that these Vikings were not only easy to see the dragon, but also very easy to lose their traces, and they thought of dealing with these people.
Ye Fuqi's whole body is nervous, Ye Fuqi often grits his teeth when he speaks, this bad problem is intolerable.
Although his children and him occasionally play a little coquettish, but he does not understand his own children. In Ye Fuqi's mind, his children will always listen to him.
However, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, how can he control his children and grandchildren?
Ye Fuqi was born in a small village in the Jianghan Plain, and he was born to be an impatient guy.
When Ye Fuqi lived in a small village chief called Sanxingji, he was with his grandfather.
Ye Fuqi's grandfather had only one son, and his siblings were not vigorous, which was a common situation before Tang Zhangwei completely conquered the Tang Domain.
Ye Fuqi's grandfather is a teacher, but his child has not been able to become a scholar.
Because the times are different, when the Tang society undergoes drastic changes, Ye Fuqi's grandfather Ye Maomao and Ye Fuqi's grandfather Ye Zida were shocked, of course, what was even more shocked was that Ye Zida.
Ye Zida has never eaten meat all his life, he is a natural Zhai Gong, and when Ye Zida relies on his own efforts to be friends with those officials, the friends he makes are just Lizheng.
When Ye Zida's son went to the field to run errands and took the people in the village to serve as a servant, as soon as Ye Zida saw that he was outdated and did not return, he remembered yelling, and it was because of his loud scolding that he passed on his bad temper to Ye Fuqi.
Ye Fuqi's father, Ye Chujiang, is the head of a village.
He and Li Zheng are the low-level officials of the Tang Dynasty who are responsible for money, food and judicial security affairs respectively.
Ye Fuqi has such a family background, he is a little pretentious, this person's self-esteem has always been very strong, if there is someone who is not right with him, he will always hold a grudge, but this kind of grudge sometimes becomes very ridiculous.
When Ye Fuqi was surrounded by those desert tribes in North Africa, he felt that his previous attachment and small calculations were so ridiculous
