Chapter 53: Who Is Shameless Than Others

Hong Tao's six battleships left only two to salvage the prisoners who had fallen into the water in the sea area where the battle had just taken place, and the remaining four headed by the flagship, lined up in a long line, slowly slid in front of the pier, looking for any enemies, but not a single grenade was fired from beginning to end. Because there are no more enemies near the pier, there are no people, only someone in the big courtyard on the east side of the pier is standing on the roof, waving two small white flags, and constantly waving flags to this side. The others all ran to the city gate a few hundred meters away, but the city gate did not open, they could not enter, and the black pressure was piled up, and there could be hundreds of people.

"Secretary Wen, do you think they plan to surrender, or do they plan to continue fighting?" Hong Tao originally envisioned the picture of the other party's city gate wide open, and then the king came to the dock with a white flag to surrender, but he didn't see the king, nor the minister, let alone the white flag, he really couldn't make up his mind whether to land.

"This ...... This is supposed to be a surrender, right? Wen Nan was also a little stunned, the thunderbolt just now made his soul a little out of his body, and then he realized that the naval battle was so simple? What is heroic and invincible, with one enemy and ten thousand, it is all obscenity, after this piece of iron ball is blown up, how many generals on the ship are in vain, even if people don't die, the ship is burned into a fireball, and there seems to be no other way than jumping into the sea.

"But why didn't you see the white flag after surrendering? Lao Mai, will you hold a white flag when you surrender over there? Hong Tao still feels that it is wrong, since ancient times, it is not uncommon to use fraud to deceive people, and he must not be fooled by this. The sailors on the ship are all treasures, and it is a great loss to die one, and it is better to ask if they cannot be allowed to venture ashore.

"White, white flags? No, master, be your most faithful servant. I think they have surrendered, the flags on the city have fallen, if the master is not at ease, I am willing to take people up to try! "I have to say that Martini is really a profiteer, in order to further consolidate his position in Hong Tao's heart. Willing to take the risk to go ashore instead of Hong Tao, this is a big investment.

"Oh? Doesn't it take a white flag to surrender? Hong Tao kind of understood, he watched too many movies, the thing of raising a white flag didn't seem to be popular at this time, and it was not an international surrender ceremony.

"Raising the white flag is the state of Qin. They are still black, and they don't know what else they hold, so it's a white flag, and there is no such rule in this dynasty, and these people outside the country probably don't understand the rules of the Qin period, right? Wen Nan also understood a little why Hong Tao had to see the white flag to make sure that the other party had the intention of surrendering, he had always been very curious about Hong Tao's origin, and in the contact for more than a year, he also used various words to set Hong Tao countless times. But the gain is not big, this guy is very cunning. Speak without leaking. However, from some small details, Wen Nan still saw a lot of clues, such as this kind of surrender rules in the Qin period, if you are not familiar with the history of the Han people, you will definitely not understand. Based on Hong Tao's performance, Wen Nan also believes that his ancestors were forced to flee to Australia during the Tang Dynasty. It's obvious. He knows Han culture very well, but there are many faults, and the only explanation is the knowledge passed down from his ancestors, but he does not know the changes after the Tang Dynasty.

"yes...... Hey, hey, okay then. Why don't you go up and ask me how the king intends to compensate me for my losses. These thunderbolts are still very expensive, I saved his country, should he give me some war expenses? In fact, I don't go into the eyes of money, I can do it without money, and I can use land and personnel compensation. If he's willing to build a stone fortress here at the docks as I ask, I'll stop asking him for war money, and I'll help him get rid of the nearby enemies. By the way, ask who those people are and why they are attacking his country. Hong Tao was a little embarrassed, but his cheeky face basically didn't react to this little thing, and a grin was the biggest response.

"Yes...... But I'm a civil servant...... Oh, I'm a secretary, didn't you say I just need to write with a pen? As soon as Wen Nan heard that Hong Tao asked him to surrender, he was immediately instigated, he could stand in the distance and guide the country, but he would never dare to charge on horseback, and he would not dare to follow in the end, a standard mouth dealer.

"It's just with a pen, you're going to negotiate, I'll let someone protect you, go with the thunderbolt just now, don't worry!" Hong Tao despised Wen Nan's courage very much, what kind of Nima is a well-educated person, he is not as good as the profiteer of Maitini, he knows that if he wants to get more benefits, he needs more investment, and he can't empty the white wolf.

Soon, several small boats carrying Wen Nan and 30 sailors began to land, along with three wheelbarrows. This thing was invented by Hong Tao to solve the transportation problem of Jinhe Bay, with it, a person can push hundreds of pounds of things on the dirt road that is not very good. In later generations, the working people of China pushed this simple thing and acted as the logistics of millions of troops, which was very useful.

However, he modified the wheelbarrow, and instead of a wooden frame for camels, he installed a large slingshot, on which were stacked with two slides and a total of ten grenades, which became a grenade launcher that could be pushed and walked. Once Hong Tao's battleship is not long enough to land and needs to land, he will let the sailors push this thing ashore, and if there is resistance, he can put it on the ground at any time, two people hold down the frame, and two people are responsible for launching. Self-propelled artillery! This is the name that Hong Tao gave to the little wheelbarrow, it doesn't seem to matter, anyway, it's called like that.

This time the self-propelled guns did not come in handy, as soon as the boat docked, before all the self-propelled guns were transported, the city gate opened, and a group of people came out of Hulala, kneeling very neatly at the city gate. Wen Nan calmed down at this time, and walked forward a hundred and ten meters with a group of sailors pushing carts and harpoons, dodging the burning dilapidated houses, and began to shout at the city gate. Soon, a few of the kneeling people at the gate of the city stood up, surrounded by a big fat man, trembling towards Wen Nan and them, and knelt down again in front of them. Then the two sides just stood on one side and knelt on the other and started talking.

"Uncle, how do you feel, is it more comfortable to talk standing than to talk on your knees? For our own comfort, would you blame me for killing someone from the sea? Do those seamen on the boat behind blame me? When Hong Tao saw this scene, he knew that there would not be too many possibilities for change. The natives were so frightened by the grenades that they couldn't make waves. Taking advantage of Wen Nan's efforts to negotiate terms with the other party, let's tease Luo Dacai.

"You deceived me and Youde at the beginning! We have brought trouble to the Great Song Dynasty...... This time, you asked Youde to sacrifice a horse to the official family, are you fighting the idea of the Great Song Dynasty? Luo Dacai is different from Wen Nan, he has a more comprehensive and more understanding of Hong Tao, thinking about it from the beginning to now, he came to a conclusion that Hong Tao's plans are very big. In this sea area, the richest is the Great Song Dynasty, since he can directly knock down a Nanfan port like a child playing a game, then when there are more ships like him, the port of the Great Song Dynasty is basically the same scene. When he thought that the ports of Zhenzhou, Qiongzhou, Guangzhou, and Quanzhou would be burned into a sea of fire by the floods, and his family and friends would all be homeless, his eyes were red.

"The idea of beating the Great Song? Why do I want Da Song! Didn't I say it, these ships were used to help the Great Song Dynasty, and they were used against the Mongols. Don't guess, we've known each other for four years, and I've never lied to you and Brother Luo, right? It's the same this time, I swear, as long as the Great Song doesn't attack me first, I will never attack the Great Song, even if your court is a little sorry for me, I won't be like them. My ideal is that in the future, this sea area will be the inner lake of our Great Song Dynasty maritime merchants, you can run as you want, you can do business wherever you want, you can only control the sea and God, no one else, no one. In fact, in the west of the big food country, there are thousands of miles of sea frontier, it is more profitable to go there to do business, grab a handful of tea leaves, and you can exchange it for the same handful of gold back, why don't you go? Don't worry, wait for me, when I have a bigger boat, I'll take everyone over there to make money. Lao Mai, do you think I'm right? Hong Tao helped Luo Dacai, who was a little trembling with excitement, to sit on the steps of the stern, like coaxing a child to sleep, and told him a very, very good future.

"Yes, your Excellency is right! I've been there with the camel caravan of the tribe, and they have beautiful glass, and pewterware. Silk, wine, tea, porcelain can be exchanged with them, very, very cheap. But there was always a war on the way, and the trade route was dangerous, and if the master could cross the sea, he could bring more goods. At that time, the master should be the richest maritime merchant in the world, and he should have lived in a palace covered with gold, with the most beautiful beauties in the world, and countless warships! I, Martini, am the master's most faithful servant, to help the master manage them, hehe......" Martini understands better than Luo Dacai, Luo Dacai doesn't know where the Great Qin Kingdom is, but he has been there. If he could really drive a big ship over, it would be much more than using a camel team to transport goods, thinking of this, he felt that his eyes were full of golden light, and the last sentence was his sincere words. As long as he has enough wealth, he doesn't care who is his own master, as long as he can be someone else's master.

"Hey, hey, hey, if you want to be beautiful, it's all up to you, so aren't you the second richest person in the world? If Cixi hears about it, he will definitely secretly poison your food, do you believe it or not? Hong Tao is sometimes speechless to this black fat man, he is shameless enough, but compared to him, it is really nothing. What's even more fucking up is that there is a more shameless person in the family, and if Martini and Cixi are more shameless than shameless, he is still not an opponent. (To be continued.) )
