Chapter 6 Who is the Praying Mantis? Who is the Yellow Sparrow? (Medium)

On the sea near Penghu Island, there are two sand boats. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A small boat was lowered from one of the sand boats, and under the vigorous rowing of three people, the other sand boat slowly approached.

As soon as he got closer, a man climbed up the rope ladder that hung down.

Towards the end, a hand reached over, and He Bin saw a handful of grabbing and glaring upward, and climbed onto the sand boat.

Chen Yonghua waited for He Bin to take a few breaths before saying, "Aoki Hall Master, long time no see!" ”

"Chief helmsman, long time no see!" He Bin said.

"You are so anxious to see me this time, is there any important news to bring me?" Chen Yonghua said with a gentle smile.

"Chief helmsman, the little one has found out the news, the Dutch ghost is preparing to send troops to exterminate the Blackbeard pirates!" He Bin gasped and said.

Chen Yonghua frowned when he heard this, and said, "Is the news reliable?" ”

"Well, it was a Dutch ghost who went to a tavern to get drunk and accidentally said it. He thought that no one would be able to hear the ghost's bird language. I don't want to think that the Netherlands has been in Dayuan for so long, and the people here can understand some words somewhat. In order to confirm the authenticity of the news, the small one also sent people to confirm many times that these ghosts had purchased a lot of food and transported it to the port during this time. The subordinates feel that the news should be true! He Bin said.

This news is very important and must be sent to Nanjing as soon as possible!

Chen Yonghua thought in his heart, but his face was immobile and he threw a bag of things to He Bin and said, "Well, you did a good job." This is the general's reward for you! “

He Bin took it, and knew that this weight was not light with a light pad of his hand, and said happily: "Thank you to the helmsman, thank you general!" ”

Chen Yonghua smiled and said: "The general will not treat meritorious men badly, and if there is important news in the future, remember to tell him as soon as possible like today!" ”

"Yes, the little one will definitely do his best to serve the general!" He Bin flattered.

"By the way, how did you inquire about the news you asked you to inquire about last time?" Chen Yonghua asked.

He Bin heard it and said with some hesitation: "The little one has secretly sent someone to measure the Luermen waterway that enters Dayuan Bay according to your instructions from the chief helmsman. It's just that there are Dutch soldiers patrolling there, and it will take some time for the small ones to draw up a map. ”

Chen Yonghua said with some displeasure when he heard this: "Remember, this is a big deal, and it must be done as soon as possible!" ”

He Bin saw Chen Yonghua's cold gaze, and his heart was cold, "Yes, yes, yes, the small one will definitely be as soon as possible!" ”

Chen Yonghua saw He Bin's frightened look, and hurriedly recovered a smile and said, "If it is done, the general will definitely be rewarded." Even if you get a half-official position in the future, it is not difficult! ”

When He Bin heard that he could be an official, he immediately said happily: "Thank you, the chief helmsman, the small one will definitely draw a map as soon as possible, and it will definitely not delay the big thing!" ”

Chen Yonghua nodded and said, "Go get busy!" Remember to be careful, don't let those ghosts find out. ”

After He Bin told Chen Yonghua the news that the Netherlands was going to send troops to exterminate the pirates, he carefully climbed down the sand boat and returned to Dayuan by boat at night.

Chen Yonghua also hurriedly took a boat back to Nanjing and reported to Zheng Chenggong.

……

In the South China Sea, a Dutch merchant ship is heading north. In a short time, the ship had sailed to the Qiongzhou Strait between Qiongdao and Guangdong.

On an unnamed island in the South China Sea, three lockboats are resting on the beach.

Shi Lang was lying on the deck, looking up at the sky, looking extremely comfortable.

Suddenly, a speedboat sped across the sea and sailed to the lock boat "General Capture".

"Boss, there's a fat fish!" Zhao Jiu, the little leader of the pirates, shouted loudly.

"The brother of the water post in front reported that a Dutch merchant ship is coming this way, and it is about to enter the Qiongzhou Strait, and it is going to the South Seas eight times out of ten! Boss, do we want to do this vote? ”

Shi Lang's eyes flashed, and he stood up with a "sudden", with an excited look on his face, and the laziness and comfort of the right talent were completely gone.

"Damn! I've been waiting for almost a week, and finally there's a 'fat fish'! Do it! ”

"Yes, Boss!" Zhao Jiu shouted excitedly when he heard it.

As long as you catch this fat fish, you can drink the soup yourself.

It is better to have a good harvest like the last time he robbed the treasure ship of the Mughal Emperor, and everyone can get a few thousand taels.

Thinking of that dazzling gem, Zhao Jiu was fiery.

At the shouting of the pirates, the sailing ships of the three locks were hoisted high and sailed towards the "fat fish" with a swift ride in the wind.

After a day of hiding behind an island and reef, the Dutch merchant ship finally arrived.

Shi Lang took a telescope and carefully observed the Dutch merchant ship from afar.

After waiting for a long time, Shi Lang has not yet given the order to dispatch.

Seeing that the merchant ship was about to sail into the Qiongzhou Strait, he didn't set off to stop it. Once merchant ships enter the strait, it is even more difficult to catch up.

"Boss, are we still going to do it?" Zhao Jiu asked eagerly.

"Don't you see that, kid?" Shi Lang wiped the beads of sweat from his face and replied fiercely.

"See what?" Zhao Jiu looked stunned.

"Huh...... Those merchant ships were not loaded with cargo at all, and if my guess was correct, nine times out of ten they should be empty! Shi Lang said with a sneer.

"Huh~? How does the boss see it? ”

"If the ships were really full of cargo, the draft of these merchant ships should be at least a few feet deeper than they are now."

"Maybe the ship isn't full?"

"Huh...... Maritime trade takes a lot of time, and when have you ever seen a maritime merchant not go on the road with a full ship? Shi Lang said disdainfully.

"And the ship?" Zhao Jiu said after thinking about it.

"As you saw just now, aren't these merchant ships much faster than the previous ones? And knowing that our Blackbeard pirates were active in the South China Sea during this time, this ship dared to cross the Qiongzhou Strait in broad daylight! Don't you think it's a little weird? ”

"They deliberately waited for us to rob it!" Zhao Jiu reacted immediately.

"Not bad! If it was really cargo on board, would these merchants dare to take the risk? So there should be nothing on board, this merchant ship is simply a trap for us. However, the person who set this trap underestimated me Shi Lang too much. If Lao Tzu couldn't even see this trick, how could he still live to this day? ”

"Boss, it's really wise! Since it's a trap, let's let him go! Zhao Jiu said with admiration.

Looking at the respectful appearance of his subordinates, Shi Lang's face was full of pride, as if everything was under his control.

But he scolded in his heart, this damn ghost dared to yin Lao Tzu, if it wasn't for the general to send a message to remind him, Lao Tzu was afraid that he would also fall for this group of ghosts!

"Humph! If you dare to provoke our Blackbeard Pirates, it depends on whether they have the ability! Shi Lang snorted coldly, and his whole body exuded a cold momentum.

Zhao Jiu was so frightened that his legs trembled when he heard it, "Boss, do you really want to grab it?" ”

Knowing that it is a trap, he dares to break through, either a madman or a fool.

Seeing Zhao Jiu's appearance, Shi Lang scolded: "Look at your bear-like, follow your boss and me, I'm afraid of a bird!" Your boss is a fool, dare to go up and grab it without defense? I've sent a message to the General, and he'll send someone to help us!" ”

Hearing that the general Zheng Chenggong would send someone to support, Zhao Jiu was relieved and shouted loudly: "Boss, you said it earlier!" Scared a little. ”

Shi Lang took out the knife on his waist, pointed forward, and shouted: "Little ones, give it to Lao Tzu!" (To be continued.) )
