"I'll go with me this time."

"What?" Hu Zongxian almost jumped up, and then shook his head again and again: "No, absolutely not." ”

Hu Zongxian absolutely could not let Luo Xin go to sea to adventure, once Luo Xin died at sea, he, as the governor of the capital, must be the most responsible.

"I have to go!" Luo Xin said solemnly: "The problem of this pirate force must be solved as soon as possible, Your Majesty does not have much patience. If you can't solve it in the shortest possible time, not only will I have a problem, but you will also have a problem, brother. ”

"I know." Hu Zongxian nodded and said, "However, that can't let you take risks." ”

"It's not an adventure, pirates, it's just murder and arson. I'm going to meet them and find out. If you can fight, then fight, if you can't, talk to them. There should be no danger. ”

"How can there be no danger......

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "Brother don't need to persuade me anymore, I will definitely go." ”

Hu Zongxian's face became very ugly, Luo Xin had a holy decree there, so he couldn't change Luo Xin's decision. In the end, he only nodded and said:

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"No need!" Luo Xin shook his head and said, "You are still needed to preside over the overall situation on the shore." Even if something happens to me, at least you will be in the southeast. If something happens to both of us, then the southeast will be in chaos. ”

Hu Zongxian secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was really afraid of going to sea. His face showed a look of concern:

"But you can't go to sea alone."

"How am I alone? Isn't there a Daming Water Master, and Lord Liu's brocade clothes and Wei Ye follow me. ”

Five days later.

Hu Zongxian, Zhang Juzheng, Xu Shixing, Xu Luqing, and the five masters of the family were all at the dock to see off Luo Xin and Liu Shouyou. And when those feudal merchants saw that Luo Xin also came with him in person, their nervous hearts relaxed a lot. Luo Xin and Liu Shouyou were on the main ship of the Daming Naval Division, Luo Xin stood on the deck and shouted in a deep voice:

"Out!"

More than a hundred ships left the shore and gradually disappeared from view. Hu Zongxian, Zhang Juzheng and Xu Shixing's faces were full of worry.

Xu Shixing was really worried about Luo Xin's comfort, while Hu Zongxian and Zhang Juzheng were more worried about what the two of them would do if something happened to Luo Xin?

As for Xu Luqing's complicated mood at this time, he hoped that Luo Xin would be able to do well this time. Because only when everything goes well, the city will be able to continue to collect tariffs in the future, so that His Majesty will no longer embarrass the Xu family. However, if Luo Xin died, the sea trade would be cut off, and there would be no taxes to collect in the city, and at that time, the person His Majesty hated the most would be his father.

However, when he thought of the humiliation that Luo Xin brought to the Xu family, he longed for Luo Xin to die at sea.

The five masters all hoped that Luo Xin would return triumphantly, so that they would be able to truly control the sea trade. You must know that this time, His Majesty ordered the Xu family not to touch the sea trade again, and also issued an order to praise the five of them. After that, the matter of sea trade is not theirs, who else will it be?

A lot of money is waiting for them to earn.

But all this must be based on the triumphant return of Luo Xin, otherwise everything is empty talk.

Will Luo Xin be able to return triumphantly?

To be honest, ten percent of the people thought that it was impossible for Luo Xin to return triumphantly, after all, not long ago, the Daming Sailor was beaten by that pirate. This time there is one more Luo Xin, will he win?

Still kidding, right?

Eighty percent of people believe that although Luo Xin will fail, he will be able to come back alive. After all, although the Daming Water Master failed last time, they all escaped back. Luo Xin can't defeat the pirates, can't he escape?

But there are also two out of ten people who think that Luo Xin will die at sea, after all, there are no eyes for knives and guns, and he is still at sea.

Therefore, the five masters were really worried, leaving their families at the dock, and the five of them returned to the house with uncertainty to wait for news.

In fact, what are the people waiting for the news?

Hu Zongxian, Zhang Juzheng, Xu Shixing, and the Xu family are all waiting for news from Luo Xin. Luo Xin's news is related to the future of these people, especially for the Xu family, and even related to life and death.

If Luo Xin is alive, Xu Jiaye can live.

If Luo Xin dies and Emperor Jiajing is furious, who knows if he will pour out his anger on the Xu family?

Of course, Emperor Jiajing's anger was not because Luo Xin died, but because the city was unable to collect the money.

The atmosphere in the entire southeast has become stagnant, and everyone who has something to do with this matter is uncertain. The news was also sent to the capital as quickly as possible, and to Emperor Jiajing's case.

Endless sea.

Liu Shouyou and Luo Xin stood side by side on the deck, Luo Xin looked at the sea and said: "If there are pirates, they should appear in this sea area, otherwise it will be a little later, we will leave this strait, and it will be difficult for pirates to rob them." ”

"Pirates!"

As soon as Luo Xin's words fell, Liu Shouyou shouted in panic, and at the same time stretched out his hand to point ahead. Luo Xin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked ahead.

There was a black spot in front of them, and those black spots were rapidly magnifying, and it was a sea ship, which was rapidly approaching them.

The Great Ming Sailor had already begun to set up and meet the pirates on the opposite side. Those pirate ships were still far away from the Daming Navy, and when the bows and arrows of the Daming Sailor could not reach the pirate ship, they suddenly heard the sound of thunder, and then saw a burst of fire from the opposite pirate ship, and then there were cannonballs falling about three meters away from the Daming Navy's ship, and a thick column of water burst up.

"My lord......" Liu Shouyou's face was even more panicked.

"My lord......" At this time, Yu Dayou also walked to Luo Xin's side.

Luo Xin looked at Yu Dayou and said, "Brother Yu, can you beat it?" ”

Yu Dayou's face was very ugly, the last time he protected the merchants of the feudal country, Yu Dayou didn't come, this time he took the initiative to ask to come, wanting to destroy this pirate.

But at this time, when he saw this pirate, his heart sank to the bottom. The other party's ships are not much less than them, there are nearly a hundred, and they are all very large sea ships. The most important thing is that there are so many guns on each ship. Before he could get closer, his ship would be bombarded by the enemy's artillery.

How can this be fought?

If there were ten times as many ships on his side as there were pirates, he could still fight a dozen, but now he can't even double it. By the time the pirate's ship gets closer, I'm afraid it's too late to escape.

"My lord, we can't beat it." Yu Dayou said with difficulty: "We have to evacuate ...... quickly"

"Don't be afraid!" Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "Put down a small boat." ”
