Chapter Eighty-Five: Serial Scheme (I)

Piracy has always been the most troublesome illegal armed force in the oceans, especially for areas with many islands, such as Malacca and the Philippines.

Located in the south-central part of the Babyan Islands, Fuga Island is a northern-top island near Luzon. Half of the island is rugged and mountainous, and the other half is mostly soaked in shallow water, and the living environment is still harsh. Even the local natives of Luzon regard this place as a penal colony for criminals, and you can imagine the environment here.

And it's a place like this, but it's a paradise for a group of people. With its unique geographical location, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is across the sea from Luzon, which is the only supply line in the Babyan Islands. For a variety of reasons, this place has become a famous pirate den in the South Seas.

The Skeleton Gang, the leader of a thousand pirates on the island of Fuga, is a pirate with absolute strength. No one knows where the Skeleton Gang came from, people only remember that two yellow-skinned Chinese came to the Babuyan Islands a year ago. Agile and ruthless, in less than three months, the Skeleton Gang rose from the ground and grew to 800 people.

Since then, the number of the Skeleton Gang has not increased, but the strength of the Skeleton Gang has expanded day by day. The armed landing craft of the French, the long barreled cannons of the Germans, and the martial arts of the Chinese. The British governor of Luzon, after three failed troop dispatches, said a word: this is not a pirate, this is an army.

Laoag was the largest city in northern Luzon, and the governor Keno was an Englishman of noble blood. At this time, Keno no no longer had the demeanor of the party, and angrily pointed at Colonel Vita's nose and shouted: "Three times, the face of the empire has been lost by you, three speedboats, two troop transports, and two were captured by a group of yellow-skinned monkeys, two, two. The monkeys of the north are ready to move, thinking that our British Empire is no longer capable of ruling this land. Also, Maddie, the bastard, has written to me that I am incompetent and that I am going to rob the governor of northern Luzon. ”

Maddie is the governor of Tuguegarao, another large city in northern Luzon, second only to the Grand Governor and Keno, the Northern Governor, and has always been eyeing the position of Northern Governor. The disadvantage of exterminating the pirates became a big excuse for Maddie to attack.

Colonel Vita said very aggrievedly: "Governor, I once said that this pirate is different from other pirates, and it is not comparable to the indigenous yellow-skinned monkeys on Luzon, and it is impossible to win without the support of the large-caliber artillery of the warship on the right track." ”

Keno was suddenly furious and crossed his waist: "What? Do you mean that the pirates want me to ask the Grand Governor for naval support? Oh my God, my God, people will say, Keno is so good, when he was the governor of Luzon, he actually used the navy to exterminate the pirates. Navy, do you know what the navy of the Dao Empire is, that is the symbol of the empire, the glory of the empire. Now the empire's navy is mainly to protect the eastern route and ensure the smooth transportation of the empire's colonies, not for the sake of mere pirates, understand, understand you. ”

Just then, a soldier rushed in and purred a few words at Colonel Vita. Kino was furious, too indifferent to himself: "What's the matter? ”

But the colonel shouted with joy: "Morgan, good news from Morgan." ”

Fuga Island, Skeleton Gang.

A handsome young man who was almost 1.8 meters tall and had a warm smile on his face, no one could have imagined that he would be a member of this pirate den. Not far away, a big man who was a little thicker than him was shaking his shoulders and smashing open a hard Nanyang special nut with an iron hammer, picking up the crushed kernel inside and chewing it in his mouth.

A strong man with palm leaves on his head swaggered in, and he couldn't see how excited he was: "Mr. Yang, Morgan's red hair is about to set off from his Corri Island, and all the pirates of all sizes on the other side of the archipelago have gathered, my grandmother's, Lao Tzu has been a pirate for twenty years, and I have never seen such a big battle, three thousand, three thousand." Suddenly, the strong man looked up at the north, with a nostalgic look: "It's been twenty years, I'm not reconciled." ”

The handsome young man turned his head, my mother, who is this Yang Shuai who has disappeared for more than a year, the one who smashed nuts, look at it again, my mother, the hero Yang Hua.

Mr. Yang? Could it be - that's right, Mr. Yang, the head of the Skull Gang, is not called the gang leader, but Mr. Yang.

Yang Shuai grinned and said, "Jiawu, you are excited again." ”

Ding Jiawu, the famous Lang Shanghua of the South Sea pirates, is now the second leader of the Skull Gang. Ding Jiawu was originally not called Jiawu, his name, Ding Jiawu said that he had forgotten it a long time ago, but now he only remembers his name, which is Jiawu.

Ding Jiawu smiled and patted his chest: "Mr. Yang, it's been twenty years, if it weren't for your arrival, I would still be taking dozens of people to play with people with a little food and ammunition." ”

Yang Shuai smiled and said, "This time I sacked the richest Morgan in the Babuyan Islands, I want to see if you have lost your skills." ”

Ding Jiawu laughed again, turned his head out of the way, and at the same time raised his hand and waved, and said loudly to Yang Shuai: "Mr. Yang, don't forget the navy of the great country you described to me. ”

Yang Shuai smiled slightly, Ding Jiawu is a naval talent, but it's a pity, in the battle twenty years ago, Yang Hua clicked a few times, and wiped his mouth, Yang Shuai couldn't help laughing: "Hero, after you came to Nanyang, why do you love food so much, why didn't I find it before." ”

Yang Hua patted his stomach: "I won't have anything to eat when I go back in the future, why don't you eat more now?" ”

Yang Shuai was helpless for a while, and said for a while: "Morgan, the Englishman, said to be a pirate, is actually a wolf raised by the British governor outside, specially to help kill people who don't listen to the governor." Over the years, he didn't know how many merchant ships and civilian ships he had robbed, and the wealth must have been too much for the cave to fit, hehe, this time, we were fortunate to help him transport the money out of the cave, the cave was damp and easy to rust. ”

Fuga Island, a river port, no one could have imagined that there would be a port of this size, but there were six swarthy armed speedboats lined up on the water, and two of them were brand new, plus a dozen large wooden boats. The most exciting thing is that at the outermost point of the port, on the level of the sea wind, thick smoke is billowing, and a ship is 40 meters long and more than 10 meters wide, with more than 30 seeping holes on both sides.

Warships, real warships.

There was a strong wind under the scorching sun, and Ding Jiawu looked majestic at this time, standing beside Yang Shuai, who was wearing a mud yellow military uniform of the Republic of China. looked at the warship with watery eyes, and turned back with a choked voice: "Mr. Yang, three million, I will definitely give you a tenfold and hundredfold return for this battleship you bought." ”

Yang Shuai smiled: "Jiawu, I'm penniless now, hahaha, it depends on whether I can succeed this time." Hehe, if it weren't for the identity problem, these are all German scrapped warships, 300,000 can't be used, but they are still used, more than a dozen new guns were bought, and now there are 30 huge guns on both wings, and by surprise, they can knock out a fleet, okay, it's not too early, let's do it. ”

Ding Jiawu's expression was straight, and he stood up and saluted: "Yes, Mr. Yang." Then he turned around and stepped on the footboard, and there was a bang on the muddy dock, and a phalanx was neatly formed, and eight hundred elite warriors stood upright with guns on their shoulders, and they were murderous, who would have thought that this was a pirate.

Yang Shuai listened to Ding Jiawu yelling and teaching, and the soldiers remained motionless and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

The German Army trained, and the pirates became like this, and the time, it took only a year.

In order to embark on the route of elite soldiers, in this year, Yang Shuai sent more than 1,000 old and weak back to the mainland of the motherland, leaving only these 800 elites. In order to get guns, cannons, and most importantly, to get this giant warship under various tight blockades, Yang Shuai is now penniless.

Three months ago, there was news from Shanghai, I heard that now Shanghai Pudong has begun to not lose money, gradually, it can make a profit, Yang Shuai's only place to have a deposit is the dividend with the German Teddy, two years, adding up to about one million.

This time, Yang Shuai mobilized the crowd, just for a plan, a big plan, and a plan for the pit people.

"Ding Jiawu, six speedboats and all the big ships, all left Fuga Island from the western route, drove north for an hour at full speed, and then turned south to Koli Island. The warship is fast enough to make a big bend and go straight to Koli Island from the waters of the Eastern Front. Hmph, didn't Morgan gather the pirates of the archipelago to eradicate our Chinese pirate group, and when he knew that we would take his island of Kerry first, I don't know what he would think. ”

"Go, hoist the Skull Flag."
