Chapter 177: Ambush

The previous time he opened Crab Island, Li Tianliang had a great contribution of more than 100,000 yuan in silver, and he captured a lot of ships, Wu Guifang waved his pen and approved him to set up a battalion on his own. Now Li Tianliang is already the commander of Zhengsanpin Guangdong, and he has been awarded the general of the Zhenhai battalion. He set up a battalion with nearly 2,000 men and horses.

However, the establishment of the camp is only the first step, and how to develop this unit is the big problem. The scope of work of this Zhenhai camp is similar to that of the previous Zhelin water master, who is responsible for checking salt and checking smuggling, which belongs to the fertilizer shortage in the fertilizer shortage. However, this work conflicts with the duties of Xiangshan's sea patrol and salt patrol, and the contradiction between the two is inevitable.

If it was an ordinary place, Li Tianliang could indulge his troops to break up the opponent and monopolize this financial road by himself. But behind the Xiangshan Sea Patrol Salt Patrol was Li Yanqing, which made him have to cast a rat trap.

Moreover, these two teams are quite strong in their own force, and if they pull down their faces to fight a local group fight, their side may not be able to win. If he makes a big deal about it, he will definitely not be able to fight Xiangshan County, and the head of this camp will be erected, and the expenses will be very large, and it will be quite difficult for him to deal with it.

Li Yanqing wanted to invite him today, and he hurried over, although it was a friendship between the two people, but also to get some fat out of Li Yanqing's place, and it was best to find some salary for his troops.

Waiting for Li Yanqing to say about Longwang Island, Li Tianliang drank a glass of wine, but pushed the woman in his hand towards Li Yanqing, "Brother Liu, we are good friends and good friends." My stuff is your stuff, you're welcome. I don't mind if you are my cheap father-in-law, even if it is these two little things, if you want to play with them, I have no problem. However, this business and personal relationship have to be talked about separately. There are Franc machine people on Dragon King Island, and they are done. What's in it for me? If you can't win, you will lose your troops. Brother, I'm going to lose my head. ”

"Brother Li, this deal is going to be done. It's definitely going to be cash. When they bought this satin, it was tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the money was all dirty, and I had the final say on what to do with it. If you don't say it, I don't say it, who can prove that this money was saved? It's not easy for your brother to set up a new camp, and these tens of thousands of silver, even if you make up for the shortfall. It's probably going to be a fat year. ”

Compared with silver, Li Tianliang was more interested in another thing: "Compared with the boat with silver, I don't know which one is better." ”

"The fourth sister is a warship, and the two silver-pulling ships can't be compared. However, the Franc machine man has his own warship, and after this deal, I'm afraid that you, the sailor, can really stand on the side, and no one can compare. Besides. I'll give you an explanation, this matter is the business of Grandpa Gao, and the matter of Grandpa Gao is the business of Grandpa Feng. There is no one in the court, so don't be an official. Do you need me to say anything more? Come, drink. ”

A few days later. Dragon King Island, which has experienced a baptism of fire, once again ushered in a group of guests. There were about hundreds of people in two strokes. Gather in a flat place in the middle of the island. I saw that there were more than 100 strong men on one side, shirtless on their upper bodies. With a sword in his hand, dozens of large wooden boxes are placed behind him.

On the other side, there are nearly 200 people, but all of them are Westerners, and their appearance is different from that of the Central Plains. Most of them were dressed in half-body armor, and some carried muskets on their shoulders, while others carried spears. A tall man, with a high nose and deep eyes, and a very neatly trimmed beard, looked around vigilantly, and then asked another foreigner beside him, "Mr. Sax, why is our friend, Sir Simon, not here?" ”

"Mr. Carlos, I assure you that nothing will go wrong with this deal. This island is located in the middle of nowhere, and no one usually comes, and the Ming side will not notice this. As for Simon, if he is willing to give up his share, why should we care what he thinks? ”

"No, I'm just worried about whether he'll be like a hibernating viper, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to us."

"As far as I know, he had to deal with it because of the urgent summons of the Daming County Order. And the county magistrate is an insatiable devil. His thirst for money never ends. We had to raise more money to satisfy his appetite. I heard that there were a few more women in his mansion, and I think it was probably his woman who needed a new dress, or that the jeweller had provided her with new ornaments, so that our Monsieur Simon had to pay for it. ”

That Carlos was the leader of this Spaniard, and he was very fine, and after careful inspection, he really didn't see any enemies, so he was relieved.

"Poor Simao, though it is not a gentleman's work to comment on others behind his back, I must say that he is too weak in dealing with barbarians. For these heretics who refuse to believe in God, all we have to do is to dig out their hearts and let their souls accept God's punishment! I heard that Canton was obstructing the construction of our church, and when this batch of silks was sold and had enough military funds, we were to take the fleet to Canton and reason with their officials. ”

Captain Sark secretly cursed countless curses in his heart, but for the sake of profit, he still accompanied a smiling face, "Your Excellency Carlos, let's take a look at the goods first." ”

The interpreter for both sides was an interpreter hired from Xiangshan. Li Yanqing organized dozens of idlers to learn Fanyu, in order to do a good job in this tooth business and generate income for Xiangshan.

After the man had translated a few sentences for the two of them, a man of about thirty and a thoughtful face came out of the men and said, "You can inspect our batch of silk, and we will also take a look at your silver." ”

Carlos raised his hand and someone brought two boxes over, cut the lock with a knife, and took out the silver bars inside. The man was very careful, inspected dozens of them in a row, and then said: "Then on both sides of us, let's send someone to move the goods." ”

At this time, Carlos picked up a tribute satin in his hand as if groping, as if caressing not a lifeless satin, but his lover's skin. This color, this silkiness, this weaver, he couldn't help but say:

"Let us praise the great God! Check it out, this is a real work of art throughout Madrid...... Oh no, it's the knights and ladies of all Europe who will go crazy about it. Even kings and archbishops, they never had such good fabrics. Seeing these fabrics, and the military expenses that have been exchanged for it, it is time for His Majesty the King to strengthen his faith in sending troops to this country, which is a land given to us by God and which we must occupy. ”

Sack reminded, "Your Excellency, this is not the time for us to praise God. We need to hurry up and move these things, and if Simão comes, we will lose some of our profits. ”

"Oh Sark, you're right. Young men, carry all the boxes to the ship for me, and if anyone dares to break any of them, I will swear in the name of my ancestors and hang him on the mast with my own hands. ”

Whether it is silk or silk, it is not a small number, and all the people on both sides have to carry it by hand, and their number is limited, and they have to rest for a while after moving. But just as they had come to rest, Sark suddenly appeared, and the interpreter was nowhere to be found, and was about to ask, when he heard a sharp bamboo whistle, and then an ambush was set up, and an unknown number of men and horses were coming towards them.
