As a fan who has just entered the Tao, Grace quickly sank into this popular game in the East under the influence of several guards.

"No wonder you can talk to the boys."

"Boys don't have so many mothers-in-law and mothers, it's okay, it's okay, it's not okay, it's not okay to let you go out to play in the sun, it's not okay to rain, it's not okay to be hot, it's not okay to be cold, it's not okay to be in a bad mood on a cloudy day......"

"Nonsense, how can I be so squeamish, I just want to read quietly, I don't like to make a fuss."

"Yes, I know, in your eyes, girls shouldn't play with boys, they shouldn't go to play football, they shouldn't go to football, they shouldn't go to football, let alone drink together, they should go to salons...... But we in the West don't really care about this, I still go fishing and hunting with my friends, and besides, it doesn't affect others......"

"You don't care about drinking?"

"Shhhh......hhhhh Don't talk about it, I'll kill you! ”

It was good just now, but as soon as it came to the point, the side of the teeth and claws was immediately exposed.

The two talked again, and it was almost late at night before they went back to their rooms to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Yan Zhiqing was thinking about the conversation just now, while recalling the meeting with Gan Tang in the afternoon, and suddenly thought: Yes, if you meet him tomorrow, you will find one copy of English, one in French and one in German, to see if he can understand it, I don't believe that in addition to Latin and Italian, he can understand these, see how he talks, look at his embarrassed appearance - call him reckless!

The next day, Yan Zhiqing rushed to Mrs. López's bookstore again, and after reading that Gan Tang didn't come for most of the morning, she couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

Would you like to ask Mrs. López?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she immediately denied herself: Don't! I don't ask him to watch it with me, I won't see it myself!

After almost two quarters of an hour, she was really bored, she decided to leave, and suddenly the familiar figure came over, waving and apologizing: "Di Ali Reba, Di Ali Reba, I'm sorry, I'm late, I'm late...... Come on, fresh juice, do you want to drink a little? ”

Wanyan Zhiqing originally wanted to lose her temper, but then she felt unreasonable: people have apologized and said that it was too late, what should I do? Besides, Pingshui met, not relatives, and the two sides didn't even tell each other's names, why are they unhappy?

As for the matter of calling Di Lieba, she has been enlightened: a name, as for being so stingy?

She smiled and said: "No, I know that you are busy with something, anyway, I am also wandering around, I can't meet today, I can always meet tomorrow, you are such a big living person, it is impossible not to come every day, right?" ”

Is this my fault?

Gan Tang thought in his heart, and handed over a book with a silent face: "The others flipped through it casually, and I think this book may be a little interesting to you......"

Cheng Yushi's attention was attracted to the past, and a closer look was the Chinese version of "The Tale of Genji".

"What is this book about?"

"The Tale of Genji" can be said to be the world's earliest novel, 300 years earlier than Bactria "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin" and Europe's "Decameron", and is called the immortal national literature of 30 million Japanese by the Japanese Ben people.

The novel depicts the style of Kyoto in Nippon during the Heian period, exposing human nature and the struggles in the court. It reflects the powerless status and miserable life of women at that time, and is the most brilliant realist masterpiece of Japanese literature. It has played a great role in promoting the development of poetry, opera, waka songs, pai sentences, and remote operas in later generations. ”

Wan Yan Zhiqing showed a look of disbelieving.

Gan Tang said, "Are they stupid, stupid, incompetent, and particularly cruel in your eyes?" "Almost, Woko......"

"It's this kind of stupid, stupid and incompetent Japanese robbers, who have burned and looted on the southeast coast of Daxia for more than a hundred years, and my Daxia court has no way, decades ago, Riben invaded Goryeo, my Daxia sent troops on an expedition, my Daxia Navy Division and the Goryeo Combined Fleet were beaten and prostrate on the ground, five years ago, the Yan State Navy Division crossed the sea to attack the Nippon mainland, and the whole army was annihilated, saying that the Dongying people are stupid, stupid and incompetent, what are the Central Plains people? Wait? And again? ”

"This ......" Yan Zhiqing couldn't say, she felt that her traditional worldview was being subverted: Gan Tang didn't drop the bookbag this time, but with an obvious cross-examination, it made people fall into a logical dilemma.

After Yan Zhiqing took the thin copy of "The Tale of Genji", she said: "I talked to Grace about you yesterday, and I originally invited her to come with me, but he went to watch a football match today, so let's find a time so we can chat together." ”

Gan Tang smiled: "She's fashionable." ”

"She always has a strong curiosity about new things."

Gan Tang was a little surprised, thought for a while and said, "There is also a novel serialized in Huaxia Weekly, don't you know if you have read it?" ”

"What?"

"Jin Yong's."

Yan Zhiqing's eyes widened and she thought hard, then shook her head: "Jin Yong? I don't know, I've never heard of the name. ”

"He serialized three novels in the newspaper, two of which are "Dragon Babu" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are martial arts novels, only this "Liang Zhu" is a heavy, poignant love story, and the story tension will not be much inferior to "The Tale of Genji", you can look for it, if you can't find it, I'll show it to you tomorrow."

"Can you help me?" Wanyan Zhiqing suddenly whispered a little crampedly, "I don't know many people, if I don't have it here, I can't find it, I ......"

"Then you'll be waiting for me here tomorrow, and I'll bring it to you at noon."

"Good! You gave me a book, and I'll invite you to dinner at noon, right? ”

Gan Tang wanted to say that he was invited, but when he raised his head and saw the girl's eagerness, he nodded, and went out together to go to the nearby tavern opened by the Japanese stupid people, sake, sashimi is still a familiar taste, in Gantang's mouth, I am afraid that it is not more authentic than the taste hundreds of years later, looking at the delicious Yan Zhiqing, he turned around and quietly packed a secret jam from Ryukyu - girls should be able to love this thing.

The next morning, Gan Tang still dealt with the matter of exterminating the pirates on Shuangqi Island first, and just today, news came from Zhu Fubu in Shantou that the pirates of Shuangqi Island had finally taken the bait, and more than 3,000 main forces on the island had all gone ashore to attack Shantou.

Gan Tang immediately ordered Hu Lianshuai, the commander of the Fujian Road Water Division, to attack Shuangqi Island, Haikou's old nest.

November 28, 4325 in the Yellow Emperor calendar

At three o'clock, under the leadership of the veteran Hu Lian, more than 100 ships carrying 5,000 sailors and warriors set off from Ningbo Port and marched towards the old nest of Haikou Bandits.

The sky was not beautiful, and the army sailed on the sea for less than an hour, and the sky became overcast. Then it rained.

To make matters worse, the original northwesterly wind turned into a northeasterly wind, and the entire fleet was headwinding.

This also led to the fact that the entire fleet could only go in a zigzag shape, and the original journey of five hundred miles was more than one thousand miles, and the speed was still very slow.

The journey, which was originally planned to be completed in a day and a half, took four to five days this time.

The officers and men of the Fujian Navy Division did not retreat, and they would have encountered all kinds of difficulties when sailing southeast this season, and he was not willing to give up his plan to occupy Shuangqi Island because of these difficulties.

The attack on Shuangqi Island before the New Year was crucial to eradicate pirates in the East China Sea and protect the smooth flow of trade between the East and the West.

Now the most pitiful thing is the sailors on deck, the temperature has dropped below freezing, and they have to watch the wind from the deck, adjust the angle, and mend the sails.

What Hu Lian can do is to have a large amount of ginger soup and small chai hu soup on every ship to prevent the spread of the flu.

By the evening of the second day, the rain had stopped, but the journey was more difficult.

Because they have already entered the Taiwan Strait, the Taiwan Strait is the first sea chain that later generations called.

You can't drive around here, you can only follow the sea route map to avoid running aground.

Although this sea map is a new sea map that Gan Tang asked for from López, there are not many reefs to be discovered, and after a few warships hit the reef and sank during the voyage, all the warships were much slower.

The veteran Hu Lian was also a little helpless in the face of this situation.

Fortunately, the next day, the sky cleared and the wind direction changed to northwest again. Although it is still a semi-headwind, it is already possible to sail in a straight direction.

After dark, the Great Xia Fujian Naval Division fleet changed its battle phalanx and did not dare to sail again, so it could only slowly find a shallow place to anchor.

In order not to be prepared on the island, all the ships were not lit.

Although the island is large, the whole island is a high mountain, almost no flat land, and the vegetation on the mountain is luxuriant, and there are many caves that can hide people, and it is difficult to remove the pirates if they hide in the mountains. On the other hand, Kogi Island is small in size and flat in terrain, and over the decades, the pirates who have lived here have gradually built large villages that can accommodate 10,000 or 20,000 people on Koki Island.

At first, the owners of these two pirates were the Bactrian pirate family, controlled by the Zheng family, and they made a living by collecting taxes from the passing merchant ships of the East and the West.

Later, the thousands of down-and-out Japanese ronins led by Koizumi Inuyo, who moved westward, seized the dominance of the island after two years of naval battles.

After the Japanese occupied the island, they were more greedy than the Zheng family, and were not satisfied with collecting ship taxes, feeling that the money was coming too slowly, and began to plunder small passing merchant ships.

Thirty years ago, the Ottokai division of Ottritsu carried out a siege and suppression of Shuangqi Island, most of the pirates on the island were killed, and the owner of the island, Koizumi Inukai, was also killed in this battle, and Koizumi Ichiro, the only descendant of Koizumi Inu, was just four years old at that time.

Taking advantage of the war between Bactria and Yan, after twenty years of recovery, Shuangqi Island prospered again, and five years ago, the Arabs and European pirates moved eastward and took a fancy to this foothold, and after several years of contention between the two sides, neither of them took advantage.

After Pu Shougeng's adjustment, the two sides called off the war and made peace, joined forces to jointly control this strategic place of trade between the East and the West, and Shuangqi Island also turned from radical raiding to moderate again.

However, due to the strong pressure brought by Great Xia to Pu Shougeng, under the instruction of Pu Shougeng, the group of bandits on Shuangqi Island frantically robbed passing merchant ships in the past six months, and went ashore many times to harass the southeast coast of Great Xia.

And the Fujian Navy Division of Great Xia carried out a surprise attack on Shuangqi Island under this circumstance.
