Listening to Wang Shugen's series of coincidences, Lao Mazi drank his teeth and flowers. He cursed in his heart: Shit luck!

But the old pockmark didn't show it on his face, and said with a look of embarrassment: "That's it! ……”

His hesitation made Wang Shugen and Ah Shuka nervous, and their eyes became eager when they looked at Lao Mazi.

Seeing that the two were nervous, Lao Mazi said: "Don't be nervous, I'll tell you about this credit!" ”

The two thanked Lao Mazi again and again, and listened attentively. I only heard the old pockmark say: "At the beginning! The boat wanted to escape, but I was lying on my stomach in the grass and burning, and they came to the shore in a panic, and the two of them had no objection! Lao Mazi said, pointing to the blackened marks under the mainmast.

The two nodded in unison, and when they collided, the boat was already on the shore.

"And secondly! It was our brothers who risked danger and stormed the enemy ships, so that you had a chance to climb up and capture them alive...... Forehead! This person! Lao Mazi continued to flicker.

The two nodded again, and Lao Mazi continued: "So what! You two only helped us capture the enemy ships, and there is a little credit for it. But to join the Changxing Army! It should be enough, but ......"

The two of them were very happy to hear that they could join the Changxing Army, but when they heard that Lao Mazi was gone, they became nervous again.

"So be it! Who let us fall in love! The credit for capturing this man will be given to you, so that your credit will be enough. What do you think! My brother Ma is interesting enough! Lao Mazi said.

The two of them hurriedly thanked Lao Mazi, and the soldiers of the Changxing Army behind him listened to it for a while. Obviously, he captured the enemy chieftain alive, but the biggest credit for capturing the enemy ship was fooled by his own captain. Those two stupid boys have to thank them a thousand times, the captain is really talented!

Lao Mazi turned to his subordinates and said, "See! How good is this, everyone has merit to discuss it, and you must abide by the rules. Otherwise, don't blame me for not reminding you if you die, have you remembered them? ”

"Yes!"

……

More than 200 Changxing troops were killed in the First Battle of Tamsui River, most of whom were soldiers of the killer whale warship and the fireboat fleet. Sink three enemy ships and capture the opposing flagship.

The Ganlas slaughtered violently, and in the end, only three warships were left to flee in disarray. Tamsui City was not damaged in any way, and this battle completely gained a foothold on Taiyuan Island, and no force dared to provoke the Changxing army.

In a tent in Tamsui City, Wu Shuang flipped through the account book in his hand, and didn't look at the old pockmark standing aside at all.

After a while, he said, "Is it interesting to deceive two newcomers?" ”

Lao Mazi shook his head like a rattle and said, "Xiucai! I'm not deceiving, I'm reasoning with them. Didn't they agree in the end? ”

"That's it! Don't take this as an example, don't blame me for not talking about brotherhood in this case! Wu Shuang said.

"Yes! Be! Lao Mazi said that he was about to go out.

But I heard Wu Shuang say: "That person is transferred to the death brigade!" You can't keep him, so you can still let him keep those Yongye Fields! ”

The departing old pockmarked his body and left without looking back. He knew that this was the best result, although he didn't do anything to kill the good and take the risk, but with such a sign, the Changxing Army would definitely not be relenting.

Once again, Freshwater City is under high-speed construction, with trees being cut down upstream and going downstream. When they arrived at the shipyard and were towed ashore to dry, these were the materials for the Changxing Army to build warships, and as soon as the slipway was completed, they could start building new warships.

……

The three Galen warships sailed lonely at sea, and the sailors on board were all listless. They were the battleships of Ganlas that had escaped from the Tamsui River, and it was already a blessing for them to be alive.

This is the strait of Taiyuan Island, and the Ganlasi people must not only be careful of the Changxing army, but also be careful not to let the Dutch people find out.

Their ships are more or less scarred, and if they encounter the enemy again, they will definitely be lucky. Suddenly, the watchman shouted: "Captain! There are battleships in front of you! ”

The Ganlas were immediately alarmed, this was not their territory. The chances of encountering the enemy are the greatest, and immediately everyone is ready for battle.

"It's the Netherlands! Three battleships are besieging the USS Manila! The lookout was quick to give an accurate answer.

The captain hesitated, could they see death without saving him? Once they do that, their reputation will be ruined, and they will not have a ship to save them in the future.

But with the current situation of the three battleships, can they beat the Dutch? The answer is no, after thinking about it for a while, several captains ordered to make up their minds ~ flee far away, as if they didn't see this naval battle.

They don't know that they missed the most important news, and their bowels are blue until a few days later when they regret it.

……

Zhang Huan sat in the captain's room, with a pot of tea in front of him. He poured a glass for Melissa, who was sitting across from him, and made a gesture of please.

Melissa picked up the teacup and took a sip on it. The tea was slightly bitter in her mouth, and she swallowed it with a slight frown, and then felt a little sweet.

Feeling very strange, she did not put down the teacup and continued to take a small sip. This time, I clearly felt the slightest sweetness in my mouth, and finally drank the tea in one gulp, and my mouth was full of fragrant smell.

Melissa looked at the teapot in Zhang Huan's hand with some curiosity, thinking that this kind of drink that could drink different flavors was very interesting.

"You're really not a gentleman!" Melissa said angrily. She has a strong talent for languages, having come into contact with Han Chinese in Manila, and during this time she has learned a little from the people on the ship, and in a short time she has been able to have simple conversations.

"Oh? Why? Zhang Huan asked puzzled.

Melissa pouted and said, "Don't you see that my cup is empty?" ”

"I'm sorry!" Zhang Huan filled Melissa with tea and said, "I'm really not a gentleman, my father is just a fisherman!" ”

"Ahh Melissa exclaimed, she didn't expect that she didn't have to be a nobleman to be a captain and command a fleet.

"Then they must have been very recuperated and taught you a lot! I would like to visit them when I have the chance! Melissa asked again. In her opinion, it is impossible for a person without knowledge to control a fleet.

When Zhang Huan heard Melissa's words, his eyes darkened and he said, "They are ordinary fishermen, who have been killed by the barbarians in the north. ”

"Oh! Sorry, that's a shame! Melissa said apologetically.

Zhang Huan waved his hand and said, "Nothing! It's all fate, I understand what you want to know. My knowledge was passed on to me by my stepfather, who taught me a lot. He also led us to establish a solid homeland in the north to defend against barbarian invasions. ”

"Why did you invade Manila when you have suffered from being invaded? A lot of people died in Manila, you are the aggressors, you are the executioners. God will not forgive you! Melissa said angrily. Many of her companions died on the day the city was broken, and many died very miserably.
