Chapter Twenty-Four: Five Tigers? Five thieves? (5)
When Li Ying invited Li Gang and the three of them to attend the wedding banquet of his concubine, Li Ying's subordinate Li San was leading a sand boat to wander alone in this sea area in Tuolin Bay off Nanao Island.
Not long after Li San wandered here, a fleet appeared on the distant sea.
When Li San saw it, he immediately sent his subordinates to lift a windproof lamp and shake it back and forth on the bow of the boat. In a moment, a ship led by the fleet also lit up a light in response.
Seeing this scene, Li San asked the sailors to sail the ship to the fleet.
Although it was the end of winter, the sky was still darkening early, and a bright moon came out of the dark clouds and hung high in the west, and the bright moonlight shone the ship out of the darkness.
Li San then looked at the moonlight, and it was the Zheng family sailor who came.
Under the leadership of Lin Xishan, the Zheng family sailor led a total of 20 fortune boats and 30 sand boats to come here.
After Li San's ship approached the Zheng family's sailor, he shouted loudly and asked the ship to follow him to the water village of the black-hearted tiger.
It turned out that Zheng Chenggong and Li Ying had already discussed, and the two parties worked together.
Li Ying lured the black-hearted tiger Zhao Yan, the hanging eared tiger Li Gang, the winged tiger Lei Heng, and the flying tiger Wang Bao into his water village and supervised them.
Zheng Chenggong sent sailors to take advantage of the leaderlessness of the Haikou group to sneak attack the water village of the strongest black-hearted tiger.
As long as one party succeeds, the collaboration is a success.
In front of the Zheng family's naval ship, Lin Xishan stood on the flagship and watched the fleet, and under the guidance of Li San, the ship slowly approached the water village of the black-hearted tiger.
secretly thought to himself, with Li Ying's internal response, it was really different. If there is no acquaintance to guide the way, just the reef under the waterway outside the cottage, etc., then the ships that do not know the waterway can run aground and cannot sail into the waterhouse.
The means of defense of the water village in the Ming Dynasty era were not ambiguous at all!
In the outer waterways of the water village, idle boats are not allowed to sail, so as not to be discovered by the reefs in the waterway.
In the middle of the waterway, iron locks and the like can be arranged across the river, so that enemy ships cannot easily rush into the water village.
In the near waterway, more hidden piles are placed to let ships that do not know the truth run aground.
Without the guidance of someone familiar with the local waterways, it will only be stranded.
If the enemy takes this opportunity to send troops to besiege or directly send fireboats over, then the enemy army will have no choice but to abandon the ship and jump into the sea.
Lin Xishan has been a general of the Navy Division since he beat Zheng Zhilong and served as the chief soldier of Fujian, and he is familiar with water warfare.
Naturally, I know the trick of the water village, and when I saw the black-hearted tiger Zhao Yan, a pirate, even the Hengjiang iron lock that the ordinary Daming sailor camp would not place, I was afraid for a long time.
Naturally, he admired Zheng Chenggong's wisdom more and more for taking Li Ying in and agreeing to his request.
When the Zheng family sail to Zhao Yan's water village, he drove a sand boat to patrol the black-hearted tiger near the waterway of the water village, and also found the Zheng family's water master, and hurriedly informed the leader Zhao Jiudao: "Ninth master! A fleet approached, and the leader looked at Li San, who seemed to be a close confidant of the fifth master. ”
When Zhao Jiu heard this, he said sharply: "Since you all know that it is Li San, what are you calling a ghost!" ”
The bastard was stunned by Zhao Jiu's words, and said: "Ninth Master, this, this is a rule set by the big boss not to let the outer ship get close to the water village." You also know how powerful the big bosses are, so let's stop them quickly and ask for clarification. ”
At this time, Zhao Jiu suddenly pulled out a sharp knife, looked around at the people on the fast boat, and shouted, "No one is allowed to move!" I have long been unhappy with the big master, and I am the fifth master. If you are willing to continue to follow the Ninth Master today, the Lord guarantees that everyone will eat and drink spicy food in the future. But if anyone dares to spoil your Ninth Master's good deeds! Don't blame the Ninth Master, I turned my face ruthlessly, the white knife went in and the red knife came out! ”
Zhao Yanxin is ruthless, and even his subordinates are not good at stubble, all of them are characters who kill people without blinking.
Zhao Jiu deliberately selected this group of people to patrol with him on the same boat today, they were originally his henchmen who were accustomed to him, so they naturally knew Zhao Jiu's temper, which one dared to disobey him at this time.
If you are caught by the big boss, you may die a miserable death.
But now that the enemy's sailors are about to touch the water village, it is still two to say whether the life of the big boss can be difficult to protect. At this time, let's take care of the present, and immediately they all shouted: "We are all willing to follow the Ninth Master." ”
Seeing the answer of the people on the boat, Zhao Jiu was very satisfied, and said loudly: "The five masters have decided to take refuge in the eldest prince Zhongxiao to recruit the general Zheng Chenggong, and together they will oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore their sights." Now the eldest prince has led his sailors to attack Nanao Island, and he will soon be able to capture the black-hearted tiger Zhao Yan. Since you are willing to follow me, you will naturally have a share of it when you become a leader in the future. Hahaha......"
Thinking that he would be able to be a master in the future, Zhao Jiu couldn't help laughing.
Seeing that Zhao Jiu was smiling, the people on the sand boat were also busy laughing.
After Li Yingce rebelled against the black-hearted tiger Zhao Yan's men, the Zheng family sailor successfully sailed into Zhao Yan's water village, just docked, and after putting down the boat, the rattan armor soldiers in the Zheng family army jumped into the sea and ran to the shore.
At this time, in the water village of the smiling tiger Li Ying, two lives were lost in a row, and Ren was a little scared of these murderous pirates in Nanao.
Usually they regard human life as a mustard, but when their lives are also regarded as a mustard, they are even more frightened and tremble, and the timid people are even more frightened when they see the bloody corpse of the second master.
Wang Bao surrendered, Li Ying turned around and walked onto the high platform, straightened his waist, looked at everyone, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, be quiet, and listen to me." ”
Li Ying's voice immediately showed Li Ying's prestige as one of the five masters of South Australia's five major sea bandaries. Not only did Li Ying's subordinates all stop talking, but even the subordinates of the Hanging Eared Tiger, the Winged Tiger, and the Flying Tiger all fell silent.
Standing on a high place, looking at the dark crowd, Li Ying was very satisfied, and said loudly: "The black-hearted tiger Zhao Yan is brutal and unkind, and now the eldest prince has led his sailor to conquer Zhao Yan's water village. Feeling the loyalty of the eldest prince, I, Li Ying, have decided to take refuge in the eldest prince and fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty together. However, I, Li Ying, am not the kind of person who only cares about my own family. All my brothers were born and died with me, and they all know that I Li Ying is a person, and I am definitely not the kind of person who leaves my brother behind. I, Li Ying, will not forget you, I have the heart to build a clear road for all brothers. Follow me to join the eldest son, have a future in the future, earn an official position, and give the ancestors a face, it is better than being a thief all the time and being scolded! ”
As soon as Li Ying finished speaking, Li Ying's henchmen immediately expressed their determination and said: "Big brother, our brother has been with you for three or four years, and you treat us well. I can't control anyone else. I'm with Big Brother. Big brother is a pirate, we will be pirates! Whoever the eldest brother wants to take refuge in, we will take refuge in! ”
was shouted by Li Ying's diehard subordinates, and at that moment, the group of relatives under Li Gang and the three of them all shouted: "Yes, yes, yes!" We'll follow the five masters. Whoever the five masters want to turn to, we will take refuge in! ”
And some people who wanted to show it in order to gain the reuse of the smiling tiger Li Ying drew their swords and shouted: "That grandson who disobeys the five masters is the enemy of Lao Tzu." Lao Tzu hacked him to death! ”
Some nimble minions even shouted, "Kill the black-hearted tiger and elect Brother Li as our boss." ”
After a lot of effort, these people unified their voices, and they all shouted, "Kill the black-hearted tiger and elect Brother Li as my big boss!" ”
As the crowd shouted, suddenly a familiar and terrifying voice came from behind the axeman, "Whoever wants to take my head, come as hell!" ”
