Chapter 502: A Chance Encounter at Sea

"Who are you?" Seeing that their side had been defeated, the pirates on the original merchant ships gave up this piece of fat to their mouths, and fled with Ping Qingsheng, and the Fire Dragon King and they were able to board the merchant ship smoothly, and the Fire Dragon King asked a middle-aged man who came to greet him.

The situation on the merchant ship was bad, the corpses of sailors and guards were dumped on the ship, and blood flowed all over the splints. There were only a dozen men who could still stand, and all of them were injured, if it weren't for the Fire Dragon King and their timely arrival, these merchant ships would definitely be finished.

"Under Li Zhen, thank the general for his rescue. Look at the banner, you are the Jin family, I don't know which gentleman it is? The middle-aged man said respectfully.

"Li Zhen?" The Fire Dragon King screamed in surprise, and glanced the middle-aged man up and down, "He's really unlucky, you have to know that it's you, Lao Tzu will leave when he falls off the boat!" ”

The middle-aged man is Li Zhen, he used to go to Xianzhou Island to pull sea salt, so the Fire Dragon King has seen him.

"Is that you?" Li Zhen was also impressed by the Fire Dragon King, and he was also very surprised, "I didn't expect that it was Qin Wang's people who saved me." He shook his head again and smiled bitterly.

"Boss Li, I'm afraid it's a bit inappropriate to say my general's name so bluntly, right?" As soon as his words fell, a few people walked out not far away, and a young man at the head spoke.

The young man had a white face and a soft face, it was Jiang Dongchen.

"The juniors meet General Huo, thank you General Fire for saving his life." He walked up to the Fire Dragon King and slammed it to the end.

"Jiang Dongchen? How did you get mixed up with this guy? Because of his background, the Fire Dragon King had no good impression of a rich kid like Jiang Dongchen, so he frowned and asked.

Jiang Dongchen had dealt with the Fire Dragon King, knew his temper, and couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard him so rude, "General Fire don't worry, it's all because of business." ”

"Okay, as long as you don't feel sorry for the general." The Fire Dragon King didn't bother to deal with Jiang Dongchen and Li Zhen, "The pirates have dispersed, you guys go about your business." With that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"General, wait, I have something important to discuss with the general." Jiang Dongchen hurriedly stopped the Fire Dragon King.

Jiang Dongchen brought the Fire Dragon King into his cabin, but he turned around and walked out, leaving the Fire Dragon King and a sturdy young man behind.

"Who are you?" Seeing Jiang Dongchen so mysterious, the Fire Dragon King looked at the young man in front of him and asked strangely.

"I'm just a nobody, the general may not know me, my name is Liu Sheng, and I am a subordinate of Dong Tianxiang and Dong Tang Master." The young man smiled at the Fire Dragon King and introduced himself.

This person is the Mingyuetang spy leader who went to Ulzhou City with the Fire Dragon King to capture Li Jun and forced Li Zhen to submit. Later, Jiang Dongchen's private salt business became bigger and bigger, and he was transferred to Jiang Dongchen's side to help him.

"Mingyue Hall? Is there a warrant? ”

The Fire Dragon King is cautious, and when it comes to a crucial department like Mingyue Hall, he naturally has to be even more careful.

"It's a waist card under the play." Liu Sheng took out a waist card from his arms and handed it to the Fire Dragon King.

The Fire Dragon King took the black waist card and confirmed it several times before he believed it, "It turned out to be the brother of Mingyue Hall." "No wonder Jiang Dongchen was so respectful to this Liu Sheng just now.

"General Fire is really cautious." Seeing that the Fire Dragon King was so cautious, Liu Sheng not only did not get angry but looked cautious, "I still have something in my arms, but I can't show it to the general, this is the top secret of Akagi." Liu Sheng patted his chest again, there was indeed something bulging there, "But I want the general to ensure my safety, remember, even if the general and your men are all dead, you must ensure me, and even more importantly, the safety of this thing." Otherwise, the consequences are not something you and I can bear. ”

Hearing Liu Sheng say it so bluntly, the Fire Dragon King also realized that the matter was important, and his face became solemn, "Brother, don't worry, I know the rules." I will send someone to protect you all the way, so you can rest assured. ”

"Well, thank you, General. The general will return immediately, as soon as he goes ashore, he will go down by himself, then the general has nothing to do. Liu Sheng thanked him.

"Brother doesn't have to be polite, there is also something to ask for brother." When the Fire Dragon King heard that it would be fine as long as he was sent ashore, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "Ben Jiang doesn't know anything about Dongying, but the general has entrusted him with a heavy task, and he also asked my brother to talk to Dong Tang Master to help Ben General get inquired." ”

"It's a business matter, and it's natural to bring it down." Liu Sheng nodded and agreed, "Not only Dongying, but all the countries near this sea area have already started to investigate, Dongying, Goryeo, Silla, and Ryukyu, without exception. ”

After seeing Liu Sheng, the Fire Dragon King immediately returned with the fleet, he gave up his cabin to Liu Sheng and a few secret agents from Mingyue Hall to live in, and even arranged two hundred elites around the cabin, ordering that no one should approach.

"Dad, who is that? So mysterious? Huo Geng asked curiously as he pointed to the back of his head and pointed next door.

After he said this, he immediately aroused the curiosity of Wang Yu, Liu Qing and others, and everyone looked at the Fire Dragon King expectantly.

"Shut up, don't ask what you shouldn't ask!" The Fire Dragon King scolded Huo Geng, and glanced at a few old brothers, "And you, if you want to live a long life, you have to know the proportions!" ”

Seeing that the Fire Dragon King was so serious, everyone quickly put away the curiosity on their faces, and no one dared to inquire.

"That's pretty much it." The Fire Dragon King nodded with satisfaction, "What about the casualties of the brothers this time?" How many Dongying miscellaneous pieces have you killed? ”

After asking these questions, everyone's faces were ugly, "Big brother, this time we killed more than 400 pirates, and our own casualties were nearly 600. Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Wang Yu sighed

, said stubbornly.

"What? Six hundred casualties? Hearing this number, the Fire Dragon King exclaimed, "Those are all old brothers who have been with us for many years, and they have died so many times at once?" ”

"Big brother, I won't tell you the truth, the third brother used almost ninety people to destroy fifty-three bandits." At this time, Liu Qing said with a red face, "These pirates are really not simple, don't look at their short stature, like a dwarf, but they are fast and ruthless, at first glance, they are elites who have been trained for a long time, and our brothers are indeed not opponents." ”

Hearing Liu Qing's words, the Fire Dragon King fell silent, he also saw with his own eyes the hand-to-hand combat ability of those pirates, which can be called terrifying, "These people must have extraordinary backgrounds, I will report to the general truthfully, about this war, what other thoughts the brothers have, tell me." ”

"These people are really good at boating. I saw with my own eyes that the third brother's inevitable blow was actually dodged by the small boat. Li Yu added, "Whether it is the skills of the sailors or their tacit understanding, they are much higher than us." ”

"Yes, don't look at their boat is small and broken, but it's really fast. They don't seem to have any decent long-range weapons on their ships, and they rely on broadside combat, and although the tactics are primitive, they are very effective. Huo Geng took over, "Dad, I think that against them, big ships are not good, and small boats should be needed, the kind of fast and sturdy boats." It's better to catch up with them, the kind that smashed their boat to pieces. ”

This time, the Fire Dragon King did not scold Huo Geng, but gave him a reassuring look, which made Huo Geng very happy.

"Finally, the commander on the other side is not a mortal." Finally, the Fire Dragon King said, "I can clearly see that the third brother's sea falcon ship is less than fifty feet away from the flagship, and when it was about to crash it, the ship did not move. This courage alone is enough for us to pay attention to. Ladies and gentlemen, the future of our enemies will not be simple. ”

"Yes, I didn't expect Dongying, a small country, to have such talents." Wang Yu also sighed, "Big brother, little brother thinks that we know too little about Dongying, especially the performance of their warships and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, so it's not a way to go on like this." ”

"That's the truth, we must know the detailed information of the Dongying people." The Fire Dragon King nodded in agreement, "It's not difficult, there are many merchants in the nearby seas, and it's not difficult to find a few people who know Dongying to inquire." However, if we want to obtain accurate information, we still have to rely on ourselves, and I have already arranged this matter, so you don't have to worry about it. ”

Within a few days, the Fire Dragon King's fleet arrived on Changxing Island, and when the Fire Dragon King went to find Liu Sheng, he found that he was empty. The Fire Dragon King asked the soldiers in charge of the guard, but no one knew when Liu Sheng and they left, let alone how they walked from the vast sea, which made the Fire Dragon King sigh.
