Chapter 12 Wen Langzhong
It's over, Nippon Funaman Maru! True to this slang, five crossbow arrows exploded almost at the same time, Hong Tao saw with his own eyes that a relatively clever Japanese sailor was going to pull out a crossbow arrow nailed to the houseboat next to him, but as soon as his hand touched the crossbow arrow, he was blown up all over his face. The mixed oil of broken iron and deflagration sprayed him, and he immediately became a figure like Huang Jiguang, covering his compatriots and ships with his own body, and fell directly into the sea with a face of fire and blood.
"Jinnyima is hard! What about cumming...... Two goods! Put the dinghy and watch them dive here, let's go see how many people are left in the boat. Hong Tao squatted on the edge of the boat very shamelessly, only showing half of his head and staring at the burning boat dozens of meters away, and actually saw two Japanese with punk heads and the kung fu to pick up bows and arrows to shoot at him. It's a pity that those bows and arrows were blown by the sea breeze, and they couldn't shoot accurately at a distance of 30 meters, and they floated like feathers to the point where they went. But Hong Tao still didn't dare to stand up, what Nima Yingming Shenwu is nonsense, saving their lives is important, since they are still mentally tossing, then ignore them first, go to the back to see how many gasps are left on the boat that sank just now, and come back after a while, it is estimated that they should be honest.
These two Japanese merchant ships were really able to load, even salvage and rescue, and actually got more than 40 people, not counting the collision and drowning, and they tossed from noon to dusk before they could get all the living people that could be found on the sea.
"How come there are still Han Chinese!?" When Carl went to the captain's room to inform Hong Tao that the outside was tied up and was waiting for him to go to the review, Hong Tao walked out with his hands behind his back and his chest folded in the posture of a victor, and before he had taken a few steps, he immediately noticed the abnormality. Among these people kneeling on the deck with their hands tied behind their backs were not only the Japanese with punk heads, but also three Song people with turbans wrapped in their hair and wearing skirts, two older and one young.
"Are you from the Song Dynasty?" In order to confirm his judgment, Hong Tao leaned over and asked.
"............%¥**......%%" replied to him with an angry roar, but unfortunately Hong Tao didn't understand a word.
"Oh, it's infuriating, isn't it? …… Come here, we can't cure this injured arm, stab him with a knife, and throw him into the sea! "Hong Tao is so angry, he can understand a few words of Japanese, but he can't understand a word of Chinese, is there any reason for this Nima! No, this breath had to be released, so a wounded Japanese next to him became his punching bag, and another midshipman was designated as a executioner.
"Yes! Big, adult...... What is he charged with? "This midshipman is a young man from the Tan family who is about the same age as Bo Jiao, and he agreed very happily, but as soon as he pulled out the knife, he made several strokes in front of the Japanese, and after looking for his neck and chest, he never dared to stab him, and he actually came up with an excuse for himself. Pay attention to rewards and punishments on the ship, and every punishment and reward must be announced in front of the entire crew, which is the rule set by Hong Tao.
"The crime? Illegally carrying weapons, intending to commit crimes against our country, and subversion of the country...... Is it enough? Hong Tao felt that he was very ashamed, he originally wanted to scare the three Song people, who would have thought that people would see the joke.
"Yes...... But they didn't go to our country...... "The midshipman still couldn't get started, and found another reason.
"You're done! I forgot even the first rule of the fleet, I don't blame you for this, I blame your captain, whose ship is he? Hong Tao quickly picked up the knife and stabbed him to death directly, took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, turned his head and asked Carl and Bo Jiao. These midshipmen were all recommended by the two of them from whaling ships, and they were trained as future backbones.
"Report to your lordship, it's me on board!" Bo Jiao immediately stood up.
"Carl, look, did he deserve that bucket of water just now?" Hong Tao was happy, and now he remembered that Bo Jiao still owed him a bucket of water, just to make up for it.
"Do you poke or not? Or I'll stab you to death! When Bo Jiao heard the word bucket of water, he immediately knew that he was going to be unlucky. As a captain, he knew the importance of majesty, and being punished in front of the entire crew was not only a serious blow to his body, but also a great shame to him. At this time, the ruthlessness of the Tan family was revealed, and without saying a word, he snatched a crossbow from a crew member next to him and aimed it directly at the midshipman officer.
"Ah...... Yes! Yes! Yes! The midshipman also knew that he was in trouble, so he simply closed his eyes and stabbed the prisoner in front of him, shouting loudly while stabbing back, to embolden himself.
"Open your eyes! If you don't open your eyes, I'll shoot you to death!" Bo Jiao didn't wait for Hong Tao to speak again, and directly gave an order. The midshipman opened his eyes tremblingly, looking at the Japanese man in front of him who was stabbed by himself and covered in bloody holes, and felt as if it was nothing.
"Drag him into the sea, and then fetch water to wipe the deck clean!" Po Jiao felt that it was not enough.
"Wait, the two people who were burned on their thighs next to you are also yours, just experience it at once." Hong Tao was much more ruthless than Bo Jiao, and he wanted to see if this trainee officer dared to kill with his eyes open.
"Stop! How can you be so careless of human life! Seeing that Hong Tao had ordered to kill again, one of the three Song people finally couldn't help it, and shouted in words that Hong Tao could understand, while struggling to get up from the deck, trying to hold his chest up, very righteous and awe-inspiring. As for how he knew what kind of dialect Hong Tao could understand, it was very simple, he must have chosen a similar pronunciation according to Hong Tao's accent.
"Poof......" This time the midshipman did not make a mistake again, and in strict accordance with Hong Tao's order, he directly sent the dagger in his hand into the neck of another prisoner, and tried to open his eyes, watching the prisoner convulsed and closed his eyes.
"I, I, I...... Outrageous! Outrageous! Seeing that no one paid attention to his actions, this middle-aged man with a long beard was a little angry, which was simply too shameless.
“……%¥#¥%…… Yes...... Burst! Unfortunately, a few seconds later, another captive was also stabbed in the neck. The midshipman seemed to be familiar with the feeling of killing, the muscles in his arms were no longer tense, and the expression on his face was less frightened, but it was still hideous, but more disgusted by the splashing of blood.
"Behold, you make it hard for me, and I make it uncomfortable for you. You are a very courageous person, but your courage has no effect at all, and it may be counterproductive. Now I ask you to answer, say one more word, one less word, and one more person will die next to you. If you consume them all, then I won't ask, just throw you into the sea and finish the job. Who you are doesn't mean anything to me at all, I'm just a little curious, why did you go to Japan? "In fact, even if these three Song people were not on the boat, the wounded in the captives would have been executed. Only distilled spirits were used as disinfectants on the ship, and people with too large wounds would not survive, and Hong Tao would definitely not go to the port for medical treatment because of a few captives. However, since these captives can coerce the Song people, it is okay to use them to scare and scare people.
"I am the main guest of the Great Song Rite Department, Si Youlang, Chinese South, character Beiming, I am on duty, you just killed the guests of the imperial court!" Hong Tao's threat worked, and soon he knew what kind of ship they were. It's too much of a back, I haven't been a pirate once in a century, and Nima caught up with two diplomatic ships. This surnamed Wen is still an official of the Southern Song Dynasty, as for what level this host and guest of the Ministry of Rites is in Youlang, Hong Tao is not clear, it is estimated that it should not be a sesame official, diplomacy is no trivial matter!
The remaining two Song people, one is his subordinate and the other is his family, so they can be regarded as escorts. And these Japanese are not like the ronins that Hong Tao imagined, they are the officials and retinues of the Japanese shogunate, and the Japanese government at this time is called the Kamakura shogunate, and the capital is in Kamakura. As for where this Kamakura is, Hong Tao probably knows that it seems to be near Tokyo Bay, there is such a small city, many temples, and a large stone Buddha.
"If I send the three of you back to the Great Song Dynasty, will you also have to sue the officials to arrest me?" Hong Tao was very helpless, especially how to deal with these three Song people.
"Yes!" Wen Langzhong held his chest higher.
"Don't talk to me, I'm afraid you won't be able to see the land of the Great Song Dynasty in your life, be honest with me as a primary school teacher! Put them all in the bilge and give them one porridge a day...... Forget it, for your sake, change it to a dry meal. "Even if this right man says that he won't denounce himself, Hong Tao won't believe it. He had already thought about it, these three people must know how to read, and they should all be brought back to Jinhewan to be school teachers, if they dare to make trouble, he doesn't mind a few more Song slaves in the mine. What Nima Lang is not in the Lang, Cixi doesn't know the Filipino traitor, and with a wave of the big whip, whoever comes has to be honest.
