Chapter 707: Torture
As a raging flame ignited in the stockade, soon the entire stockade was enveloped in flames, and the criminal pirate stronghold was burned to the ground. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"I can't wait to interrogate this guy." Li Yang said fiercely.
"Great, brothers, take out the guys." Wang Hu immediately commanded, although the people of the boat village have also been pirates before, but they will not easily hurt people's lives, let alone do the thing of killing them all, it is not the work of smart fishermen to dry up and fish, but this group of cold-blooded pirates is really incomprehensible, they are really killing people for fun?
On the ground floor of the flagship, a cargo compartment had been carved out as a makeshift torture chamber, and inside a sturdy sailor was whipping a native pirate with a saltwater-soaked whip, who was crying out for mercy and begging for mercy.
"Hmph, I still have to teach you professional torture to extract confessions." Li Yang pulled up his sleeves, turned out a thin wooden stick from the side, cut it into a thin stick with a few strokes, and then handed it to the torturer and said, "Take it." ”
"My lord, what is this for? Pierced into his heart? Wang Hu had already asked curiously.
"No, flip up his fingernails and stick them in between them and his fingers." Li Yang said, and at the same time felt that the hairs on his back stood up a little.
"Uh......" The sailor answered, and according to Li Yang's words, he grabbed the pirate's fingers, flicked his left hand and sent his right hand, and the small half of the bamboo stick was inserted into the nail and drilled out of the skin of the finger at the other end.
"Whew~~~~~~~~~" The prisoner let out a heart-rending scream that made everyone feel a little hairy on end.
"Kill me, kill me, I really don't know, we are thieves at sea, after the Dongying people came, they wanted us to kill people and reduce trouble, the Dongying people who took the lead can speak the local language, you go and ask him, you go and ask him!" The native pirate's thinking was still clear, and he shouted over and over again.
It turns out that Little Japan can speak the local language, and he still pretends to be, but he is not in a hurry, and when he returns to the city, he has eighteen ways to concoct him, even if he is an iron mouth, he will pry it for him.
In fact, the harvest of this trip is still very great, at least Li Yang didn't expect that there is such a small island hanging overseas alone, and such an island is definitely the best base for the fleet, and Li Yang's fleet will have its own nest in the future.
The fleet slowly leaned towards the dock, night had fallen, Li Yang decided to stay in the boat village for a night, anyway, the camping was also familiar. The pirates were divided into rooms in the village and tied up tightly, and the food was definitely not given, and these bloody fellows still had to be tortured.
A large pot was set up to boil a hodgepodge of seafood, the soldiers gathered around the bonfire, nibbled on multigrain cakes, and drank seafood soup, it was rare to have such a leisurely time, Li Yang also sat among the soldiers, and suddenly got the idea of whether to teach them those revolutionary songs of later generations, but thinking of the different aesthetics of ancient and modern times, think about it.
After everyone ate and drank, they went back to the camp to sleep, although the boat village had its own set of guard methods, but the soldiers in the camp still sent out open and dark mobile posts according to the requirements of weekdays, which is also what Li Yang always emphasized.
Early in the morning of the second day, the operation began in the barracks, and Li Yang had also finished washing up, and was helping the soldiers pull out the camp, Wang Hu ran panting: "Island master, no, the remaining three Dongying people committed suicide yesterday." ”
"What!?" Li Yang, who was squatting on the ground folding a tarpaulin, stood up suddenly, "Go and have a look." ”
Looking at the stiffened corpses lying on the ground in the three rooms, Li Yang felt that he still underestimated this crazy nation, and he knew that he should also shut their mouths, and at a glance, he knew that the last few Dongying people must be the leaders, and they could dig out the most information from their mouths, so they committed suicide, which was really a miscalculation.
After comforting the soldiers who were guarding them, he couldn't blame them at this time, Li Yang said, "Bring their bodies back to Miyako Island." ”
"My lord, what is this?" Wang Hu is a curious baby, he likes to ask anything clearly, which is very different from Li Wen, who always implements silently.
However, Li Yang also appreciates him, and diligence and inquisitiveness are also a major factor in whether a general can grow smoothly. "I'm going to expose the body."
Back on Miyako Island, Li Yang summoned Li Wen: "My Chief Administrative Officer, do you know that there is a group of vicious bandits in our territorial waters? ”
"I've heard of this in the mouth of Wang Guangzong, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, but this group of bandits didn't provoke us, so they didn't attract much attention from us."
"You also know that the day before yesterday I went on an expedition, and it was the idea that a group of pirates dared to come and attack my boat village." Li Yang slapped the table and said.
"It's so lawless, but you must have punished them."
"Yes, you can arrange for the more than 100 pirates captured this time to work in the most bitter mines, and each of them must wear shackles, which can never be removed." Li Yang instructed, "In addition, you arrange, we have found many relics of killed merchants in the pirate's den, you put them at the city gate, if any relatives and friends of the merchants recognize the relics, let them take them, and express to them Miyakojima's greatest apologies, Miyakojima will ensure the safety of every merchant in the territory of Miyakojima in the future, and we will do our best to crack down on all kinds of bandits!" ”
Just kidding, Li Yang wants to take industry and commerce as the pillar, if he can't even guarantee the safety of business travel in his territory, then how can he develop. Li Yang's move is also to retreat as advance, ostensibly to apologize to the business traveler, but in fact, it is to promote Miyakojima's attitude and start Miyakojima's fame.
Sure enough, as soon as the relics collection office was set up at the gate of the city, it was immediately surrounded by people, and there were still articulate people who preached that Li Yang led the fleet to destroy the thieves' den in one fell swoop and ensure the safety of the sea route, please rest assured.
Looking at the various jewelry items with dried blood spots on the collection office, and the soldiers standing next to the reception desk holding shiny long knives, no one dared to come forward to claim these relics.
Among the crowd of onlookers were the indignant people of Miyakojima, who were now much more nourished than before, whether they were working or farming, and when someone came to Miyakojima's territory to look for trouble, they naturally felt that their faces were dull, and they were the most fierce.
The attitudes of the merchants are varied, and there are merchants in the territory of Miyakojima, and they all applaud; There are also businessmen from Tianfang, Daming and other places, and they all nodded one after another, thinking that Miyakojima had done a great thing; There were also businessmen from nearby countries, who were either nodding their heads to the drummers, some were silent, and some were very disapproving.
Several merchants found the belongings of their friends or relatives in the relics, and cried for a while, but no one came to trouble Miyakojima, there was no concept of territorial waters in this era, and if you meet bandits at sea, you will die, and sailing and doing business is also a day of licking blood with a knife.
