Chapter 254: Blocked Halfway!
"This is also something that was expected, but I didn't expect those Yingyi warships to be so sharp. If it is obtained by us, let alone a mere Fujian sailor, even if it is the world, we can come and go. Cai Yan gritted his teeth hatefully. He rushed to the front that day, but who would have thought that the opponent's artillery was so dense and sharp, as soon as it fired, more than a hundred artillery pieces sprayed out from one side, and that kind of power was really shocking.
The clipper he was on was also blown up several holes, and he was overturned in the sea, fortunately he was rescued by his subordinates, but it also chilled their hearts, only to find that after gnawing off the shell of the Fujian sailor, the fat flesh inside would be exposed, but who would have thought that the flesh that looked extremely luscious was actually highly poisonous.
"Yes, who would have thought that these Yingyi people are really hard to gnaw bones, come and go, although we don't lose much, but, angering the court, we can be regarded as struggling, you and I both know that before we were able to crisscross Fujian and Zhejiang, that is because everyone went their own way, scattered actions, and did not give the sailors a chance to gather and annihilate, but now, brother, you want to unify the Fujian pirates, in this way, although the strength has been strengthened, but in this case, our goal is also too big." Zhu Lian lit a cigarette and handed another one to Cai Lian, saying as he spoke.
"I also know this truth, but if you don't unite, it's still a plate of loose sand, and now it's said that it's been gnawed by the sailor, and it's said that it's going to make people scratch a claw, and it's been a long time, and there is still no way out." Cai Lian took a few puffs of cigarette and smiled bitterly.
These words made the shed fall into silence again, and after a while, Zhu Mian spoke again: "Lao Cai, are we ......?"
"No way!" Cai Lian didn't wait for Zhu Lian to finish speaking, so he categorically interrupted Zhu Lian's words. "Lao Zhu, I didn't say you, let's be happy along the coast of Fujian and Zhejiang, come if you want, leave if you want, why do you want to form an alliance with them, besides, now Chen Tianbao and they are no longer the former Annan sailors, what is the difference between them and our identity? They asked us to serve, it was far away in the South Seas, we really went there, we were not familiar with the place, maybe they swallowed us, and at that time, it was too late to regret it. ”
--------------------
"Now that we have focused on nearly 10,000 horses and more than 300 boats, don't we even have the courage to fight with the court? If that's the case, how are we going to deal with the gangs that have come to us? If we can win one or two more battles and establish the prestige of our brothers, what will we do then? After Cai Lian dropped this sentence, he left the shed with only half of the cigarette left.
Zhu Mian threw the hot cigarette holder on the ground and slammed it with his toes. After burying his head and walking out, he went straight back to his ship.
"Uncle, how's it going?" Zhu Li's henchmen had already come forward to ask Zhu Li.
"What else? Cai Lian wants to be the emperor. He didn't want to think about how Lin Shuangwen and them died back then, you must know that Lin Shuangwen and they gathered nearly 50,000 people from the land and water army, and as a result, the court was wiped out. Zhu Ting slammed his palm on the table with hatred.
"Uncle, your prestige is no less than Cai Lian, why don't you lead an army yourself and retreat to Taiwan to wait for its changes? After all, now that the court is angry, it is not a good strategy to stay here at this time. Another henchman also spoke.
"That's it, big brother, he Cai wants to die, that's his business, we can't know it's a dead end and still hit it." Zhu Li's younger brother Zhu Kui also spoke.
"Okay, don't talk about it, Cai Lian and I are brothers in life and death after all, and I can't watch him die." Zhu Lianyun glanced angrily at everyone present.
"Otherwise, let the second master go south, go and ask Chen Tianbao and them, first, to see how they are in Nanyang, and second, to arrange a retreat as soon as possible, so that things will not turn around when the time comes, and there will be a way out."
"That's the only way to do, second, you take a few boats, just say that you are going to buy food, go to Taiwan first, and then go south, that person didn't say it, they have eyeliner in the area of Hong Kong Island, you can go to that area to investigate and investigate, and then ......" Zhu Kui thought about it, and after a whisper in the ear of the second brother Zhu Kui, Zhu Kui left the boat with understanding.
"What did you say?!" Wu Liang felt that the liver fire in his stomach suddenly rose, and his eyes glared viciously at the Fujian Navy Admiral Zhao Chengwan who was standing on the deck. "The general soldier of my family came to Fujian in the name of the emperor to assist your sailor to exterminate the thief Cai Lian, now it's good, you actually let us stop at Nanao Island, when we are here to ask for food?"
Not to mention Wu Lianghuo, the generals present also looked unkind, slanted their eyebrows and looked at the standard general, and some people even simply pulled out the short dagger on their waists, shaved their nails on that side, and always looked at their necks.
Although these people seem to be quite scattered, but the fierceness and blood-devouring that come out of their bones always make people feel creepy, like a group of vicious wolves strolling on the grassland, and they don't know when they will pounce on the prey that is not far away, revealing their vicious and ferocious fangs and claws.
I saw that the general who had a bulging chest and belly when he first boarded the ship felt that his back was cold, and his waist was getting more and more stiff. For fear of accidentally angering this vote, no matter how you look at it, it feels like a group of murderous pirates, more like the officers and soldiers of the Guangdong Humen Town Sailor Soldiers.
"Wu Liang, don't be rude, General Chen, do you think that the combat effectiveness of our Guangdong Navy Division is too poor?" Liang Pengfei drank Wu Liang, looked at the admiral general whose waist had been bent like a willow in a storm, and then said slowly.
Hearing that Liang Pengfei finally opened his mouth, the general who raised the standard secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and said with a smile: "How can my admiral have such thoughts, who doesn't know that General Liang is a fierce general of the Guangdong Navy Division, breaking the red flag thief's lair, destroying the red flag thief chief Zheng Lianshou, breaking more than a dozen cities in Annan, capable of land and water, and his military exploits are brilliant." It's just that the British envoys were attacked, and the soldiers and horses of the Nanao Navy Division suffered heavy losses, and the chief soldier was left to guard and inspect the southern tip of Nanao to the southern tip of Taiwan Prefecture, hoping to use the authority of the chief soldier to shock the thief Cai Lian and make him dare not go south. The standard general said while looking at Liang Pengfei's expression.
Wu Liang snorted coldly, and before he could say anything more, Liang Pengfei rolled his eyelids: "Okay, since it is a military order to recruit the commander, of course Liang will obey it, and ask General Chen to go back and tell your commander, Liang should follow the order." ”
"Since this is the case, then there is nothing to do with the general, and I also ask Liang Peng to fly to South Australia, and the general will go back to pay the order." General Chen didn't talk nonsense, and after hurriedly bidding farewell to Liang Pengfei, he got off Liang Pengfei's ship, took his own clipper, and rushed north as if he was being chased by a ghost.
--------------------
"Young master, why do I think this guy is like a ghost when he sees us? Could it be that this guy is Cai Lian's person who pretended to pass on the military order? Bai Shusheng patted his ass and walked to Liang Pengfei's side, looked at the back of General Chen, and said disdainfully. This made all the generals laugh.
"It's just, no matter how you look at it, it's like a soft egg." Wu Qianjin flew directly into the sea with a mouthful of saliva, and he didn't know if it would spill on that guy's brain.
"Y'all don't fucking fart me! Get back to your ship, and give the whole army an order, and turn south. Liang Pengfei looked at the soldier with a black line on his face and said angrily, and suddenly a group of people scattered.
"My lord, it seems that the Admiral Zhao doesn't treat you very well, and before he arrives at the place, he will give you a dismount first." Sun Shijie watched those arrogant soldiers flee in all directions with amusement, and then stepped forward and said to Liang Pengfei.
"He can't hide that little bit of thought from people at all, huh! It's okay in this way, when the province gets it, I can't catch Cai and his gang, let Lao Tzu be implicated, as long as I guard the front line of Nanao and let my Guangdong waters not be disturbed, even if I complete my task. Liang Pengfei said with a smile.
"Turning south? I said, my lord, we are almost in Quanzhou now, and this south is not Nanao Island. At this time, Monk Chen on the side couldn't help but open his mouth.
"I know this, I just want to see with my own eyes what our treasure island Taiwan is like." Liang Pengfei stretched out his hand and scratched his scalp, his face was full of interest, since he didn't have to deal with the high-level of the Fujian Navy, it was better.
Dagou Port is also known as West Port. In the early days, it was originally the residence of the Makadao tribe, the aboriginal of the Pingpu people, and its language called the bamboo forest "takau", which was later transliterated by the Han people as beating the dog (crane Lao pronunciation). During the period of colonial rule, the place name was changed to "Kaohsiung" (because the pronunciation of "Kaohsiung" in the Chinese language is "taka-o", which is close to the sound of "beating dogs").
In the 22nd year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Zheng Kexuan descended to the Qing Dynasty, Taiwan entered the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and in April of the following year, Taiwan Prefecture was set up, which belonged to Fujian Province, and it was divided into three counties, and Tianxing Prefecture was Zhuluo County, and the state of 10,000 years was Taiwan, Fengshan County. Since entering the Qing Dynasty, Westerners came to the east to trade people, due to the relationship of the port, the dog merchants gathered, and the Chinese and foreign miscellaneous places became the product distribution center of Fengshan County, an important treaty port.
"This is indeed a treasure land." Liang Pengfei, dressed in civilian clothes, walked on the streets of Nada Dog Harbor, looking at the crowded crowd coming and going, Han Chinese, ethnic minorities, and Westerners, and even a few black slaves, and Indian Ah San, which made Liang Pengfei feel that this place really has the feeling of an international metropolis in this era. At least this kind of scene Liang Pengfei has only seen in Guangzhou.
"After all, this is far away from the mainland, so the court has some orders to come here, and the people below are naturally yang and yin for money, according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, all Yi people are not allowed to land on the territory of our Qing Dynasty under the condition of not being allowed, except for Guangzhou, but here, it seems to be more lively than Guangzhou." Sun Shijie shook the folding fan in his hand and walked in a figure-eight step, really like a traveling scholar.
Ni Ming next to him may be because he has spent most of his time studying in the military academy on King Crab Island, with a high-spirited gait and a stern complexion, like a soldier more than a soldier. After hearing Sun Shijie's words, the corners of Ni Ming's mouth curved slightly: "Guangzhou strictly prohibits Yiren from spending the winter in Guangzhou, and even Yiren women are strictly forbidden to go ashore, I don't know what Qianlong thinks, will a few scantily clad Yiren women make the atmosphere of the world erosive?" If that's the case, why do those officials still drill into the quilts of those Qinglou girls all day long, but they don't even wear clothes there, why don't he even ban this. ”
Hearing this, Sun Shijie couldn't help but roll his eyes and smile bitterly. "You're poisonous enough with this mouth."
Liang Pengfei and a ruffian were also amused by Ni Ming's seemingly cold joke. While laughing and strolling, Liang Pengfei and the others were ruined by a sudden incident that ruined their relaxed and comfortable mood.
