Text Chapter 118 Encounters with Bandits at Sea

In winter, due to the influence of the northwest wind, the Bohai Sea has large wind and waves. A fleet of more than 10 ships slowly moved south along the coastline.

Duan Jingxiang stood on the bow of a big ship, looking at the faint cyan in the sky, and his heart was excited. Finally, it is about to reach the ground of Jingdong safely, and in about half a day, the fleet will be able to enter Jishui, and there will be no worries at that time.

This time I went north to Liaodi for more than two months, and the horse trade was unexpectedly smooth. The clan masters of those Liao tribes had completely different attitudes compared to before, and they were competing to sell horses to caravans one by one, which made Duan Jingzhu can't help but think of what Chief Xiao said before, Liao is now as rotten as the Great Zhou. But that's fine, or these more than a thousand good horses can be bought there, thinking of this, he can't help but secretly feel proud, he has not done much credit in the mountains for several months, and he does some chores in the intelligence department on weekdays, and he always feels that he is not worthy of the identity of the deputy director, and this time he finally has the time to show his face,......

"Director Duan, look, there are a few ships coming towards us over there, and the situation doesn't seem right."

Duan Jingzhu was thinking about it when he was suddenly interrupted by a panicked voice beside him.

"There it is!"

He turned his head quickly, and then he saw three large sea ships in a straight line due east, heading straight for his fleet.

"No, it's a pirate."

Duan Jingzhu exclaimed, and couldn't help but secretly cry in his heart, the straight mother thief, seeing that she was about to reach the shore, how could she just meet a sea thief. What is good now, he is entangled in his heart for a while, if he abandons the fleet, he can naturally retreat with his whole body, but how can he have a face to see people on the mountain in the future. If you don't abandon the ship, there is only one way to fight hard.

After a short hesitation, Duan Jingzhu gritted his teeth and said to himself, the master is also a good man from Liangshan, and he will risk his life to do it today, if he has the life to go back, no one will dare to underestimate me on the mountain in the future.

At that moment, Duan Jingzhu made a decision, and then a signal was sent for the people from the Commercial Department to lead the fleet to go first, and a total of 50 people from the Intelligence Department and the Sailor Barracks stayed, and sat in two boats. He himself sat on a boat, and the captain of the other sailor battalion sent to escort the escort, called Gao Erhu, sat on a boat.

"Turn around, catch up, and stop in their course." Duan Jingzhu ordered the signal to be issued, and then the two boats, one left and one right, took the initiative to meet the enemy, trying their best to buy time for the fleet.

Let's say that on the three pirate ships, a rugged man in his forties stood on the tower of one of the ships, looked at the two merchant ships coming on, and said coldly:

"Straight lady thief, two small merchant ships dare to come over to seek death, I really don't know how thick the sky is, brothers, let's fulfill him."

The thief shouted and ordered two ships to meet the battle, while the other broke away and went to intercept the convoy.

In about a quarter of an hour, the ships of the two sides slowly approached, and the personnel of both sides were also clear. Duan Jingzhu immediately ordered the ship to pretend to jump north according to the plan agreed with Gao Erhu in advance, leading the thief ship to a longer distance as much as possible, and striving for some time for the fleet to delay.

"A group of fools are now thinking of running for their lives, but it is too late, and the brothers leaned in and cut down the birds and fed the fish."

The thief looked at the two merchant ships fleeing in a hurry in front of him, and he was like fat to his mouth, and he was willing to let it go, and immediately excitedly ordered the pursuit.

After a while, the two merchant ships were overtaken, and seeing that the two thief ships each found one and pasted it, they immediately scratched their hooks and threw them like raindrops, and soon the two ships were on board, and the pirates crossed the ship one after another.

Let's say that on the boat where Duan Jing lived, seeing the thieves constantly boarding the boat, I saw him shouting:

"Queue up and meet the enemy."

The guards who had been scattered on the deck instantly lined up in two rows, spears clenched, ready to go.

"Hah! Ha! Ha! This group of birds actually lined up to greet us, brothers don't need to be polite, kill the past and say hello. ”

One of the leading pirates laughed wildly, and then shouted, and more than a dozen people screamed and killed.

"Stupid, the master is waiting for this moment, and come here to die!"

Because the merchant ships were small and there were no naval weapons, Duan Jingzhu had agreed with Gao Erhu early on the morning to let the thieves cross the ship when they took overboard, and then destroy their living forces as much as possible to reduce the threat to the caravan.

"Ready, stab!"

Seeing that the enemy was approaching, Duan Jingzhu shouted. I saw more than ten spears piercing out neatly, and the few pirates who hit the front were suddenly strung into blood gourds.

"Step forward, stab!"

Duan Jingzhu grabbed Shi Xian and quickly ordered again, and in an instant, a few more fell in front of him.

"Straight lady thief, there are some evil sects, hurry up and bring the shield."

When the leading pirate saw that his side had fallen ten men at once, he suddenly realized that the situation was not good, and hurriedly called for support.

And Duan Jingzhu saw the thief shield soldiers coming up, and immediately changed his attack method, and the spear stabbed at 45 degrees obliquely, just drilling into the crack of the shield, and immediately put down a few more.

"Dogs, they all pressed on the master and chopped up this gang of thieves."

The thief stood at the bow of the ship, and when he saw that more than a dozen merchant ship men had killed many of his men, he immediately became furious, and ordered all the pirates on the ship to cross the ship and kill them.

And as the number of pirates increased, and the decks of the merchant ships were too small to move, the convoy gradually began to suffer casualties, and the thin two-layer defense line was about to be torn apart. Duan Jingzhu knew that he couldn't be good today, he sighed, picked up his waist knife and fought hard to kill the thieves. The two sides fought for more than a quarter of an hour, Duan Jingzhu had little people left, and he was covered in blood, seeing that there was no more life, he let out a long roar:

"Brothers, it is today to become famous, and the Liangshan man has no retreat!"

"Liangshan boys have advanced and retreated!"

The few remaining team members screamed in unison, and together they followed Duan Jingzhu into the group of thieves, all of them like crazy tigers.

After a few breaths, Duan Jingxiang gradually exhausted his strength, straight lady thief, the delicious food of Liangshan Restaurant could no longer be enjoyed, he sighed secretly, and stood up to wait for the last fight. But at this moment, he suddenly felt empty in front of him, but saw a cross-dressed man holding a scimitar, rampage in front of him, and the knife was fatal.

"Ariqi!"

Duan Jingxiang exclaimed in surprise, and found that the person was actually the horseman he brought back from Liao, and he didn't expect that this taciturn man along the way turned out to be a hidden master.

The addition of Aric changed the balance of attack and defense in an instant, Duan Jingzhu took the remaining few people to join the killing, and the thieves on the deck were suddenly killed by the crying father and mother, and the remaining few people rushed to flee for their lives, jumping broadside, jumping into the sea, and the pirates on the ship were immediately empty.

Duan Jingzhu seized the opportunity and immediately commanded the ship to disengage. It was only at this time that he had time to pay attention to Gao Erhu's ship, but the sight was already raging fire and billowing smoke, it turned out that Gao Erhu knew that he was invincible, and he had already saved the heart of the same fate, and at the last moment of the battle, he ignited the fire on the ship.

"Good brother! did not fall into the name of Liangshan. Duan Jingzhu muttered in his mouth, and couldn't help but have hot eyes.

"Director Duan, the pirates are here again." At this time, a team member was beside him and reminded him softly.

At this time, I saw that one or two hundred meters outside the port side, two thief ships had already adjusted their attitudes and were already attacking and heading towards this side.

Duan Jingzhu immediately ordered to adjust the ship's direction to the north as soon as possible, and lead the thief ship as far away as possible.

"Brothers, this battle, there is no chance of survival, the two tiger brothers have already set an example for us in front, we can't be too bad, otherwise the underworld will not see each other."

Anyway, there was no way to live, Duan Jingzhu let go and spoke easily.

"We are people from the battalion, how can we lose to them, Director Duan just rest assured, Lord Yama will not let them laugh when they meet."

Everyone around him saw Duan Jing relaxing, and they all regarded death as home, and they all talked about jokes.

"Very good, everyone can rest assured, the petty officials behind us will naturally settle for us, and the Martyrs' Shrine must also have a place for us, and the brothers on the mountain will also recover this blood debt for us, and now we just have to sacrifice our lives to kill the thief."

Duan Jingzhu saw that none of them flinched, and he was very moved in his heart. Then he turned and spoke to the arich;

"Thanks to my brother's sacrifice to save me, it seems that I can't repay it, but brother, you are an outsider, you don't need to lose your life for us, there are floating objects in the back warehouse, and you will hide in it, waiting for the opportunity to escape."

"I am a Khitan warrior, and there is one who is afraid of death."

The Aliqi replied lazily, without raising his head, but slowly trimming his nails with his scimitar.

"Big brother owes you a debt."

Su Jingzhu sighed, didn't care about him anymore, and turned around to direct the ship with all his might.

On the pirate ship, the rugged man was thundering at this time, and two small merchant ships had caused him to lose dozens of brothers, especially the ship in front of him. He was so angry that he couldn't listen to the advice of others, so he had to catch the gang and chop it up and feed the fish.

So the three boats, one in front of the other and two behind them, chased each other in the rough waves, and saw that the distance was getting closer and closer, and even the shouts and curses of both sides could be heard by each other. However, at this moment, I saw the sky in front of me, and dark clouds like ink covered the sky and rolled in.

"Oh no, there's a storm surge coming!" Personnel on both sides sensed that something was wrong.

The chasing pirate ship no longer cared about killing, and desperately turned to a quick escape.

"Guts rats, have the ability to fight with this god with grandpa."

Duan Jingzhu had already put life and death aside, and when he watched the thief ship flee in a hurry, he only felt a great joy in his heart, and a breath of depression came out.

"Brothers, we have all arrived at the Ghost Gate, but we are back again, this Lord Yama still doesn't want us! Everyone who can move cheers me up, let's fight with this god again, and I can't say that I can go back to Liangshan Restaurant to drink tomorrow. Immediately, Duan Jingzhu said loudly to the people on the boat.

"Go back to the mountains tomorrow and drink."

Everyone just got out of the tiger's mouth, and now they are no longer afraid in the face of danger, shouting in unison, and they are busy.

In just a moment, dark clouds mixed with strong winds and waves quickly rolled over the sea, and the tired merchant ship was like a dead leaf, and it was instantly submerged without a trace.
