Chapter 732 Demagoguery, Xiuzhu is looking for her father
Rao San thought that from reporting the news to finally blocking Lu Guangwu, this series of actions was fast enough, but he still let such a guy shout out the words of counterattacking Chaozhou Mansion and Zhangzhou Mansion, so that most of the centaurs heard it, if you want to say that there is no anger in your heart, it is naturally impossible, not to mention that the other party almost broke one of his personal wrists before!
Therefore, with Lin Afeng's instructions, he immediately dispatched the four most powerful henchmen under his command to escort such a person over. However, at this moment, he wanted to rely on Lin Afeng's momentum to make the other party bend his knees and soften, but he didn't expect that Lin Afeng immediately let out a sigh of praise after seeing this person at first glance.
"What a warrior!"
It is precisely because of Lin Afeng's words that Lu Guangwu knows very well that he seems to be in danger at the moment, but in fact, he is still safe and sound for the time being, and then he can choose the most secure response, but considering the current situation, he decided to take some risks.
Therefore, he said almost without thinking: "What a warrior is not a warrior, but a little brute force!" Feng Ye, I'm not afraid to tell the truth, the wild vegetables on the island have long been dug up, and the dried vegetables and salt on the ship are almost gone. Even if there are enough fish in the sea, who can stand it? If you want to avoid the limelight, then go to Dongfan, go to Penghu, and nest in this place, aren't you waiting for death? Besides, since stopping here, the big and small earth dragons have turned over, how many times have they been? ”
Lu Guangwu very wisely chose an entry point that no one could refute, and that was the current situation.
Sea fish will certainly be praised as delicious by some foodies, but do you really want to eat it for a month? Besides, salt and vegetables are all indispensable in daily life. But compared to these dietary difficulties, illness is the biggest crisis. In addition, it was the earth dragon mentioned by Lu Guangwu that turned over. If Wang Fulin was here, he would definitely nod his head in agreement, because someone knew that the Nanpeng Islands were in an earthquake fault zone, and even if there were no major earthquakes now, there would be an occasional earthquake of magnitude three or four, and then the waves would rise. That's scary enough!
Du Maode shouted hello to Lu Guangwu in his heart, but he was still in a state of unknown concubines, so he naturally wouldn't intervene rashly at this time. However, he was very pleased to see that there were several leaders who echoed Lu Guangwu next, and although the rest of the people did not speak directly, the expression of approval on their faces could not be hidden at all.
Qiu Sihai, who was standing behind Lin Afeng, understood in his heart that only Rao Sanhe knew about Lin Afeng's request for appeasement, as for sending himself to ask for a meeting with a large amount of treasure Zhou Congwen, the deputy envoy of the sea road. This is something that only one person knows. What Lin Afeng is most afraid of is that the people below are scattered, and the team can't be led, and how many pirate leaders die in internal strife because of such a reason? However, although he used to be Lin Afeng's cronies, the only few henchmen are now trapped in Guangzhou City, and he doesn't even know whether he is alive or dead, and if he is asked about it and can't answer well, he won't dare to speak casually.
Lin Afeng didn't expect it at all. It looks like a scruffy beard and messy hair. The burly Lu Guangwu would complain so boldly in front of him, and it also aroused the resonance of everyone, even if he still had a smile on his face, as if he was really rewarding the warrior, but he had already moved to kill in his heart. It's just a few small boats that follow one. A small character with dozens of centaurs dares to talk like this in front of him? But now in front of everyone's eyes, even if he regrets that he shouldn't have given this person a chance to speak, he can only hide it in his heart, and even has to comfort many subordinates who are also dissatisfied.
"Everyone's difficulties. I know. Lin Afeng glanced at those dissatisfied faces, and knew in his heart that he couldn't talk empty this time, so he immediately said decisively, "There are soldiers and horses stationed on Nanao Island, and they often trade with those Nanyang ships. However, they have two battalions of sailors, and if we rush to attack, we will only suffer heavy losses. Previously, someone from Nanao Island sent news that two Siamese ships would sail over in the near future. My plan is to intercept these two ships at the right time, and that should be enough for us to resupply for a while! ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a chaotic discussion all around. And Lu Guangwu found that Lin Afeng glanced sideways at Du Maode as he spoke. Sure enough, the next moment, he only heard Du Maode sneer: "From Nanao to our side, we have to see the tailwind and headwinds, if you want to say that it is the right time to intercept these two boats, it is not so easy to catch, even if Feng Ye has an inside line on the island, when to send the news, the time to go back and forth, as long as the difference is a fraction of a second, it can be a thousand miles wrong, in short, it is a mistake and you can't catch up." ”
Lin Afeng didn't expect Du Maode to openly oppose his proposal, even if he knew that this guy was deliberately making trouble because of Qiu Sihai's calculation to detain his wife and children, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed.
But the next moment, he only listened to Du Maode's words and said: "However, a slight change in this idea can make the officers and soldiers exhausted." We released the news that we were going to loot Nanao Haishi, and the officers and soldiers would definitely strengthen their defenses on Nanao Island and stick to Nanao, but in fact, we went straight to Yuegang, the capital of Zhangzhou! It is the only open sea port now, we directly grab a ticket, and then go to the east to take shelter for a while, as long as it lasts for a while, the wind direction in November and December is just right to go down to the South Seas! ”
When Du Maode said this, the surroundings were quiet for a while. In the past few years, only the pirates have been swept around the world behind the ass by the government, and the stockade is broken for a while, and the pirate is suppressed for a while, and most people's so-called votes, that is, to grab a few coastal villages, dare to hit the Nanao Island sea market and the idea of boats, it is already considered bold, I didn't expect that there are still people who dare to target Yuegang! In the silence, Lin Afeng didn't dare to let Du Maode say any more, and hurriedly interrupted: "Rather than this, it's better to turn around and release the news that we are going to Zhangzhou Mansion, but in fact, we are fighting Nanao ......."
In the chaotic atmosphere that followed, Lu Guangwu's complaint was finally successfully shelved by Lin Afeng, and this big man who made him murderous didn't say anything again, which made him feel a little relieved, but what he was worried about was Du Maode's various countermeasures that seemed to be calculated with a frown. Although in the past, when there was such a person by his side, he did win more and lose less, and the only big defeat was only the strength of the officers and soldiers, which he could not reach, as for being driven back by the Francophone after arriving in Luzon, that was another matter. But he still has a sense of powerlessness at the moment.
Just as everyone was messing around, a voice suddenly came from outside the cabin; "Master Feng, there's a boat coming over on the sea."
"Only one boat?" Lin Afeng immediately asked a rhetorical question, and after receiving a positive answer, he frowned, and a small leader said with a smile: "Master Feng." Maybe someone wants to join the gang? Even if it's really an official army, a ship is a fart? Even if it's a traitor who wants to get in, as long as he doesn't let him leave, then no news can be sent! ”
Although Lin Afeng also knew this truth, his heart was not so steady after all. He hastily ended such a negotiation, and even Lu Guangwu, who was going to give a little color, didn't pay much attention to it, and let him leave on the dhow and white ship to the island occupied by the scattered pirates, and his own gaze. It's always focused on the inexplicable boat. At this moment, he had already sent Rao San with three boats to meet him, thinking that with his many years of experience, even if he was really the elite of the official army, he would never be defeated if he fought more and less.
Sure enough, until the port, the boat that came seemed to be fine. But in a matter of moments, he noticed that the other two boats around the boat had turned around and sailed back. His heart sank. Coupled with the fact that the incoming ship was heading straight for the small islands occupied by the scattered pirates, he felt that things seemed to be different from what he had expected. Wait until the two ships sent to get closer. He immediately sent someone to shout at the bow of the ship to question, but who knew that he came up with an answer that made him stunned.
"Master Feng, that boat is here to find Lin Daoqian, the third master was held hostage as soon as he got on the boat, the boat doesn't seem to be the biggest, but it is full of people. There was a girl on the boat who claimed to be Lin Daoqian's daughter. It was she who held the third master hostage, and at this time she took dozens of people over there to find Lin Daoqian, saying that she was looking for him to ask for an explanation! ”
At this moment, Mo said that Lin Afeng simply thought that there was something wrong with his ears, along with Du Maode who was in Lin Afeng's boat. I couldn't help but be stunned. When he and Wang Fulin were separated from each other before, Wang Fulin had mentioned that in addition to begging the South Australian General Military Government to take action, he would also try to recruit a group of people and ships to come over under the pretext of defecting or other excuses, as long as he didn't know. But now that the boat is coming, what kind of drama is this so-called Lin Daoqian's daughter?
"Lin Daoqian, you come out for me! My grandma asked me to find you before she died, let me slap you hard! You come out for me, or I'll be without you, Abba!" ”
Compared to him, Lu Guangwu, who had already returned to the previous island, reacted much more than Du Mao when he heard the shouts of a woman on the new boat. After all, Xiuzhu was entrusted to Xiaobei after he and Zheng Ming rescued him first, where would he not be familiar with this voice? It is important to know that pirate ships have never carried women, even if they have been adrift for a long time, which is a taboo for the whole group. And now that so many pirates have been nesting on these three islands for so long, the old sow will turn into a sable, wouldn't it be very bad for a woman like Xiuzhu to appear? So, he immediately called Zheng Ming to come to the bow of the boat together.
I saw the boats moored everywhere, because I suddenly saw women, some people coaxed, some people cursed, some people shouted, but more people were just watching the excitement.
And on the boat, Xiuzhu was dressed in a Yao girl costume, and several pieces of silverware on her body shone in the sun, coupled with her outstanding appearance, it was so dazzling that it was difficult to look at directly. What makes people even more important is the dozen men standing behind him with swords in the bow of the ship, obviously the subordinates she brought. Because of her shouting and her dress, most people believe that she is really Lin Daoqian's daughter, as for whether someone is secretly wondering how to pick this thorny flower, it is difficult to say!
As Lu Guangwu and Zheng Mingxian, who knew some inside information, they were trying their best to search for suspicious people around. From the very beginning, they had heard some rumors that Lin Daoqian was hiding among these scattered pirates, so although there were many ships and numbers, they were all wary of each other, but they never caught any definite evidence. However, now that he has been picked up by his own daughter, if Lin Daoqian is really still there, but he is still invisible, then the fame he has accumulated over the years will really dissipate!
Since leaving Luobian Mountain, she has endured hardships, been deceived, suffered from stuffy sticks, been disappointed, cried bitterly, and experienced unknown tribulations, Xiuzhu finally appeared in this place where Lin Daoqian was most likely to hide, she only felt that all her body was full of energy and spirit gathered together, and her voice was unconsciously raised higher.
"Before Grandma died, she worked hard to hire these guards, let me come to you! I have walked through the ten mansions of Guangdong, and I have sold all the silverware of my grandma, if you don't come out again, I will find it one by one, kill it, I can do it! ”
Hearing this, Rao San, who was held hostage in the cabin after taking the ship, really gasped, but at the same time, he sensed a glimmer of opportunity. You know, his boss Lin Afeng has always been quite jealous, isn't it Lin Daoqian? As long as it is confirmed that Lin Daoqian is really here, then many problems can be solved! Therefore, he simply suppressed all his anger in his heart, secretly thinking that when he found Lin Daoqian, he would definitely clean up your girl when he turned back!
I don't know how long the coaxing took on the boats, but on an inconspicuous boat, a man in his early forties looked at the dazzling Xiuzhu from afar, and narrowed his eyes slightly as if he had been burned, and the woman who had taken away all his reason as soon as he appeared seemed to emerge in front of him. Hearing all kinds of unbearable words around him, and seeing a few subordinates around him who had followed him for many years and never left him, he finally stood up after the rumors had already died.
"What's your name?"
From a long distance, Xiuzhu has been trying to distinguish between the noisy sounds around her, hoping to find the person she is looking for. At this moment, when she heard such an abrupt question, she immediately looked at the place where the voice came from. Although there were several boats there, each with a human at the bow, her eyes fell on one of the middle-aged men with frosty sideburns for the first time. Although she couldn't confirm that the other party was Lin Daoqian, she still said loudly: "Grandma gave me a name Xiuzhu, but I don't have a surname, Grandma said, whatever I like, there is only one, and I must not be surnamed Lin!" ”
"You must not be surnamed Lin...... Hehe, you must not be surnamed Lin! ”
After muttering a few words, the middle-aged man suddenly burst out laughing, and in the end he burst into tears. He didn't seem to care about the eyes that focused on him, and only after he finally stopped laughing did he ask, "Then you should have that 'He Xiuzhu and my daughter Fangchen' arm on you, right?" ”
What the?
Xiuzhu was stunned all of a sudden. Not to mention her, even Lu Guangwu and Zheng Mingxian were a little unexpected. After all, Wang Fulin mentioned the incident between Xiuzhu and Chen Bingchang to them, and it also made them laugh at that time. However, at this moment, how could they not be shocked to hear that this middle-aged man who was suspected of being Lin Daoqian even knew the words engraved on his arm?
Could it be that Xiuzhu is not pretending to be Lin Daoqian's daughter, but really Lin Daoqian's daughter? This difference is just a fraction of a millimeter, I'm afraid it will be a thousand miles wrong! (To be continued.) )
