Chapter 253: Find the door
The repeating giant crossbow was changed to a single fire, and the range was much farther than that of ordinary giant crossbows, and a few ships of the Zeng family were burned, and the dense gas was about to vomit blood, and he was worried that the giant crossbow would be shot, and said: "Su Jiaotou, the enemy's giant crossbow has a long range, our range is short, not an opponent, retreat."
Su Ding secretly sighed that the mud of the second son couldn't support the wall, where was it so easy to fight a war, and he would retreat when he said he would retreat?
"At this time, we can only leave our butts to them when we retreat, and when the time comes, they will fight indiscriminately, they have few ships, and they will definitely not jump ship in close combat, so we are just consuming it, it is nothing more than putting out the fire, and it will take a lot of effort for the giant crossbow to shoot the ship badly." Su Ding said.
Zeng Mi said: "Okay, let's take full command from Sect Leader Su, I'll go back to the warehouse." After saying that, Zeng Mi went back to the cabin and hid.
On Xu Guanzhong's warship, a gunner proposed: "Captain, why don't we run, the tiger squats and the boat of the Zeng family sinks after a few hits, or we can use the lying cow cannon to kill their sailors and snatch the ship." ”
Xu Guanzhong shook his head and said: "No, the Zeng family has a huge power, and defeating this fleet will bring a lot of trouble, Chao Tuan Lian has Chao Tuan Lian's considerations, it is not appropriate to exterminate them now, anyway, I have taught them a lesson, let's go back." ”
Xu Guanzhong saw that the Zeng family's fleet was beaten in a mess, and no longer taught them a lesson, and ordered the sailors to repair the two merchant ships that were used as bait, and the fleet headed towards Huanghua Harbor, and after a night of sailing, it arrived at the port the next morning.
After Xu Guanzhong finished speaking, Chao Gai said: "Zengtou City is indeed a big trouble, now that the two businesses overlap, sooner or later there will be a war, but not now." You did a good job this time, once someone dares to attack our ship, you must fight back fiercely, so that they don't dare to underestimate it. ”
Zhu Wudao: "It's not enough to just shoot back, we have to go to them to theorize, otherwise the next time we encounter them, we will shoot directly and sink them with artillery." ”
Chao Gai said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to blow up and sink them, but the problem is that we are officials and soldiers, and it is still very troublesome to start a lawsuit." But what you said also makes sense, we should go to them to theorize and theorize, there is a port in Zengtou City in Yingkou, their damaged ships must be there, Guan Zhong will not go, lead the sailors to rest for a few days, there is a restaurant and a tea shop in Yanshan Village nearby, so that the big guy can have a good time. ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "Thank you brother for your care, then I will repair the ship and rest for a few days." ”
Xu Guanzhong is also tired, he has been adrift from the sea for more than half a month, where is there a reason not to be tired.
In addition to Jiao Ting, Luo Yun and their personal guards, Zhu Wu, Shi Jin, Yang Chun, Chen Da and the thirty soldiers they brought with them, as for the guards of the salt field and Kong Yang and Xu Guanzhong, they did not move.
More than 100 people set off to Yingkou Zengjia Wharf, and when they arrived at the wharf, it was already noon on the third day.
This place is not difficult to find, just find someone to inquire and find it, but also build a wooden archway, tall and wide streets, there are more than a dozen people standing at the gate of the wharf boasting waist knives, one by one horizontal eyebrows, looking fierce and vicious.
Seeing a team of people coming, the Zeng family came over and shouted: "Where did you come from to be a soldier, move out of the way quickly, don't block the road." ”
Zengtou City is in the limelight, and the guards don't even pay attention to the official army, which shows its strength.
Jiao Ting didn't care about him, took the horsewhip and scolded: "Where did the evil dog come from, dare to yell here." ”
This family was whipped, and immediately blew the whistle hanging on his neck, and the guards at the door hula, dozens of people, with knives and guns, came out.
"What are you doing, dare to be wild at the gate of the Zeng family's dock." One of the leading family members asked.
Jiao Ting said: "We are trained by the Yuncheng regiment, and we have come to arrest the pirates, and let your stewards here come out to reply." ”
This person was still not happy, Jiao Ting took out the forty-pound hammer and shook it, this person was startled, turned around, muttered a few words to another family, and then said to Jiao Ting: "I have already asked people to go in and report, please wait a while." ”
After waiting for about half an hour, I heard the horns and the cannon roaring inside. The housekeepers guarding the door stared at Chao Gai and the others proudly one by one, meaning stupid, dare to come to Zeng's dock to make trouble, don't want to mix.
A team of cavalry, about 200 people, a neat team of horses stepped out slowly, and then quietly lined up at the gate of the dock, and finally two generals rode out on war horses with vests all over their bodies, the first one had a yellow face and beard, and a phoenix winged gilded hammer, and one person behind him held a long knife, and it was no one else, Zeng Mi. This kid had seen him when he opened the horse market, and this guy was full of bad water.
The guy with the phoenix wings and gold hammer hugged his fist at Chao Gai and the others, and said, "Down here is Su Ding, the steward of the Zengjia Wharf, I don't know what's going on." ”
Chao Gai said: "It turned out to be the head of Su Dingsu, disrespectful and disrespectful, and below is the Yuncheng regiment practicing Chao Gai." As for why I'm here, I think you should be very clear. ”
Of course, Su Ding knew that when he hit other people's ships, people naturally came to the door, and before Su Ding could speak, Zeng Mi scolded: "You only lost two ships, we lost more than a dozen ships, and burned some of the goods." ”
Chao Gai said: "You are the second son of Zeng, I don't know who is in charge of this dock, the head of the Su sect hasn't spoken yet, you are so big and small, a little unsinkable." ”
"You." Zeng Mi was speechless by Chao Gai, Su Ding's position was more embarrassing, although Su Ding was the main one, but after all, Zeng Mi was the second son.
Zhu Wudao: "How much you lose is not something we consider, this time the matter was provoked by you, so your losses will naturally be borne by yourself, and our losses will also be borne by you." ”
Su Ding said: "How much have you lost?" ”
"The sails of the two ships are worth hundreds of dollars." Zhu Wu said.
Su Ding was a little surprised, he didn't expect the other party to lose so little, so he just burned the sails.
Su Dingdao: "If you fight a battle, where can you tell who is responsible, there is a way that a slap does not make a sound, we still have more than a dozen ships damaged, five sailors died in battle, who will bear this responsibility." ”
Chao Gai said: "So Su Jiaotou is determined to shirk responsibility, it seems that things can't be stopped, it's better to find a spacious place and let's talk." ”
The entrance to the pier was lined with shops and narrow streets, and a few hundred people stopped here, let alone fighting. Su Ding said: "Let's go to the beach next to it, there is a wide place." ”
Chao Gai said: "The guest is as he pleases." ”
After that, the two groups of cavalry came to the beach next to the pier, where the beach was very wide, and the ground was fine sand, and the end was very suitable for fighting.
Shi Jin shook the spear in his hand and said, "Brother, let me go to meet this guy first." ”
Chao Gai said: "Okay, be careful not to underestimate the enemy. ”
Shi Jin said: "I know. ”
Speaking of a war horse, the war horse stepped on the beach, raised sand and dust, and rushed to the middle of the two teams of people and horses, Shi Jin shook his spear and shouted: "Which one dares to come up." ”
Zeng Mi came over with a long knife and shouted, "Junior, I'll meet you." ”
Shi Jin's nose was crooked, you are only a few years older than me, dare to call me a junior, and the spear stabbed straight at the moment, and went straight to Zeng Mi's throat. Zeng Mi's long knife blocked, and the two were killed in one place.
Shi Jin has made rapid progress, he is no longer the original Lu Xia Ameng, martial arts have advanced by leaps and bounds, Wang Jin's marksmanship has mostly been taught to Shi Jin, Shi Jin is also serious, a gun swims like a dragon flying up and down, brushing, brushing, the gun is not separated from Zeng Mi's throat, chest and thighs.
Zeng Mi seems to have worked hard, the knife skills are not weak, and Shi Jin fought evenly, until more than 30 rounds, the long knife slowed down, so that Shi Jin hit the arm with a shot, Zeng Mi's arm hurt, the long knife fell to the ground, turned the horse's head and defeated back.
Su Ding's side flew out of another lieutenant general, Chao Gai asked Luo Yun to replace Shi Jin, Luo Yun's marksmanship is exquisite, and there is also progress, plus the deputy general next to Su Ding is mediocre in martial arts, not as good as Zeng Mi, more than a dozen rounds, let Luo Yun smash a shot on the back, this person was injured and left.
There was still a deputy general around Su Ding who was about to come out, Su Ding stretched out his hand to stop him, and Su Ding came over on a horse with a flick of his phoenix wings.
Chao Gai rode the dark clouds and stepped on the snow golden dragon to swallow the heavenly halberd and fought the phoenix wings and gold hammers, and as soon as he fought them, he felt that Su Ding's martial arts were not weak, and his strength was great, and the phoenix wings and gold weapons were heavier, but they were used in Su Ding's hands to look very light and brisk, flying up and down.
The two horses staggered, and the two fought in one place. In fact, in Chao Gai's view, this is not a war, this can only be said to be a fighting general, who will really fight in a fair and bright fight, the two sides are competing for strategy, strength and so on.
After thirty rounds, Su Ding gradually felt a little struggling, but he didn't expect Chao Gai's strength to be so huge, although the Golden Dragon Devouring Heavenly Halberd had limited moves, but every move was heavy and heavy.
Su Ding's phoenix wings and golden cloud cover smashed on the top, and the golden dragon swallowing halberd lifted upward, and Su Ding's tiger mouth was numb with huge strength, and it was no longer suitable for fighting again.
Su Ding turned his horse's head and retreated to the team, where did Chao Gai let him escape, took off the bow of chasing the moon through the clouds and shouted: "If you run again, you will release the arrow." ”
Su Ding has also hung the phoenix wings on the victory hook, holding the cloud-piercing arrow in his hand and turning around to shoot, Chao Gai's feather arrow flew out, just collided with Su Ding's arrow, what Su Ding didn't expect was that Chao Gai's arrow was too powerful, Su Ding's arrow hit just a little direction, and the feather arrow swooped towards Su Ding's array, Zeng Mi was caught off guard, and an arrow hit the arm.
Zeng Mi grinned in pain, but he had to endure it for the sake of face.
Su Ding stopped the horse, turned around and hugged his fists and said, "Chao Tuan has practiced arrows." ”
