Chapter 193: The Gathering of Thieves

The disappearance of Qian Song and Wang Hong, although Zhang Hu tried his best to block the news, but it still quickly spread on Nanri Island, Nanri Island, and it didn't take long for the news to spread, I don't know who spread the news, and even the surrounding people also knew about it, and the entire coastal area around Fuzhou was shaken.

Zhang Hu was very angry about this incident, and secretly ordered He Guang to send someone outside to inquire about the news, wanting to find out who was responsible for this incident.

But after half a month, the people he sent didn't even inquire about any useful news, and Qian Song and Wang Hong disappeared temporarily as if they had evaporated from the world.

Although Zhang Hu suspected that this matter was inseparable from Fang An and Ma Feng, Zhang Hu never caught any of Fang An's handles, and after Fang An and Ma Feng had an accident, they became more peaceful, and even stayed at home, which also made Zhang Hu have no way to take them.

Zhang Hu had the intention to clean up Fang An and Ma Feng, but he also felt that there was a kind of hatred and instability brewing among the gang, although the old subordinates of Qian Song and Wang Hong before did not react much to this matter on the surface, but Zhang Hu also knew that it was Fang An and Ma Feng who were secretly suppressing them, so that these people did not make a fuss.

Although Zhang Hu is not very smart, he is not a stupid person, he knows very well that if Fang An and Ma Feng are moved at this time, his Shark Gang will immediately become a mess, and through the recent refusal of those small groups of pirates around him to accept his summons, he also feels that the status of his Shark Gang is a bit precarious.

If there was any more trouble within his Shark Gang now, it might soon collapse, so even if he suspected that Fang An and Ma Feng were behind this matter, he didn't dare to move the two of them easily for the time being, so he could only secretly let his cronies keep an eye on their actions.

In addition, he took all his anger out on the nearby colleagues who kept greeting him, and once again sent people to inform them one by one, ordering them to visit him on Nanri Island before May.

At the same time, he also ordered He Guang to lead people to raid the Entrenched Wild Horse Island, which was the place where a pirate named Lu Sheng was entrenched.

And this Lu Sheng has two boats, dozens of subordinates, the last time the Shark Gang recruited him to go to Nangantang to help boxing, Lu Sheng did not go because of something, this time Zhang Hu summoned his peers nearby, Lu Sheng also heard some gossip, did not dare to go, the result is a new account and an old account, was the first to be targeted by Zhang Hu, and sent He Guang to ask him about the guilt.

He Guang took five boats and one or two hundred people to kill Yema Island, after Lu Sheng learned the news, he knew that he was not the opponent of the Shark Gang, so he took people to board the boat and abandoned Yema Island and fled, but he was still caught up by He Guang and the crowd, Lu Sheng begged for mercy and could not succeed, so he had to resist.

After the first battle, Lu Sheng's boat was injured on the spot by He Guang and the crowd, the boat was controlled by the Shark Gang, Lu Sheng was also killed on the spot, and more than 20 of his subordinates and his family were killed with him.

And Lu Sheng's remaining boat, led by his younger brother Lu Tong, had good luck and broke through and fled to Dalian Island, spreading the news.

This incident once again caused an uproar in the surrounding area, although the land government did not pay much attention, but for the pirates operating in this area, it was a matter of life and death.

Yu Xiaotian also learned the news quickly, and at the same time received a message from Zhang Hu again, ordering him to go to Nanri Island to see him before May, and at the same time to explain Zhu Da's affairs to Yu Xiaotian.

Zhang Hu also remembered Zhu Da again during this time, he sent Zhu Da to find Yu Xiaotian, but Zhu Da disappeared inexplicably, and later sent someone to find the sea wolf to inquire, and the sea wolf insisted that he had never seen Zhu Da.

Although the Shark Gang later found Zhu Da's shipwreck in a reef area and sent people to explore it, they did not find anything valuable, so they could only judge that Zhu Da was unlucky, delayed at sea, encountered a typhoon, and was blown to this reef area by the boat and sank.

But what made them feel strange was that it stands to reason that even if Zhu Da's ship ran aground and sank, there were still more than 30 people on board after all, these people lived on the sea all year round, and there were islands nearby, even if they ran aground and sank in a typhoon, it was unlikely that they would all be wiped out, and none of them could escape.

Later, the Shark Gang searched the surrounding islands, but they did not find a single person alive on Zhu Da's boat, and the matter was over.

But Zhang Hu was always a little worried about this matter, and a little suspicious that something was wrong with Zhu Da's incident, and vaguely, he felt that it was not related to the sea wolf, so he simply said it together this time, and asked Yu Xiaotian to go to Nanri Island in person to explain this matter.

This is tantamount to forcing Yu Xiaotian into a corner, knowing that this is Zhang Hu's ultimatum, if he doesn't go, then it will be tantamount to completely tearing his face with the Shark Gang, and Zhang Hu will definitely clean up these people one by one in the next step.

After Qian Song was rescued, the sea wolves on Treasure Island had one more thing to do, every once in a while, a boat would go around Dongsha Island, and the Shark Gang would also have a small boat as their sentinel boat, which would often go to Dongsha Island, a small island that received little attention.

Although Zhang Hu strengthened the control of his subordinates, and at the same time strengthened the monitoring of the other party's An and Ma Feng, but his ability was limited, and he could only control some people.

Fang An secretly bought a sentry boat, the sentry boat was all Qian Song, Wang Hong and his cronies before, although one of the people responsible for leading the ship was Zhang Hu's subordinates, but he was also secretly bought by Fang An and began to do things for Fang An.

So this sentry ship set up a liaison between Fang An and Yu Xiaotian and became their liaison ship, and Dongshayu became a place for them to connect because it received little attention.

The news of Qian Song's gradual injury and Wang Hong's gradual recovery was quickly passed on to Fang An, and Fang An also passed on the situation of the Nanri Island Shark Gang to Yu Xiaotian.

So at the moment, Zhang Hu's every move, Yu Xiaotian didn't dare to say everything, at least he knew that he was not far from ten, so after receiving Zhang Hu's ultimatum, Yu Xiaotian also decided to take action.

Yu Xiaotian led several ships that could be used for war, and recently he has been active at sea very frequently, and his subordinates have been trained with strong soldiers, whether they are old or newcomers, they are required to be able to adapt to life and warfare at sea.

In addition to normal cruising and safaris, his four boats often split into two groups at sea, and when there was nothing to do, they practiced attack and defense with each other.

In addition, several of Wang Hong and Qian Song's rescued subordinates also joined the sea wolves, three of whom were old sea wolves who had followed Qian Wang and the others on the sea for a long time, and they had extremely rich experience in fighting at sea, which greatly made up for the lack of experience of Yu Xiaotian's subordinates.

Soon they captured another ship in very good condition, almost a brand new sea cangship, which increased the strength of the sea wolf a lot.

At present, in the hands of Xiaotian, there are as many as five ships that can be used for naval warfare alone, including one three-masted light and medium-sized fortune ship, a slightly smaller one, one Haicang ship, and two bird ships.

The newly added Haicang ship was named the Sea Shark by Yu Xiaotian, and the captain temporarily appointed Wang Hong as the ship, and the crew was drawn from the existing subordinates.

Wang Hong seems to have the vitality of a cockroach, and his collarbone has been pierced through a hole, but the recovery is very fast, after a few days of delicious food and drink, plus the kidnapped Lang Zhong treated him, he quickly came to life, this guy saw that Ma Xiao and others had shaved their heads, and they laughed at them, but when they learned that this was the rule of the sea wolf, Wang Hong was also happy, without saying a word, he found a pair of scissors and cut off his hair.

Then he found someone to help him shave his head, and he became a bare scoop, in order to show his determination to follow Yu Xiaotian in the future, especially when Yu Xiaotian pulled back a sea boat and let him serve as the captain, Wang Hong patted his chest and promised that he would never disappoint Yu Xiaotian in the future.

It was only because the identities of him, Qian Song and others could not be exposed at the moment that the boat was temporarily handed over to Meng Fei to take charge of him, and after he had completely recovered from his injuries and could reveal his identity, the boat was officially handed over to him.

After receiving Zhang Hu's ultimatum, Yu Xiaotian and his subordinates began a five-day armed march along the coast of Fuzhou.

So Yu Xiaotian took his own fleet, first found Liu Yidao, and then together with Liu Yidao, found the one-eyed dragon, and then they found Lutong hiding near Dalian Island,......

In five days, he circled around Haitan Island and contacted a total of six small groups of peers active in the coastal area of Fuzhou, and finally these peers gathered on Caoyu Island.

This pirate gathering is also the first time in recent years that it has been carried out without the participation of the Shark Gang, and it used to be called by Shark Zhang Hu, so these pirates would go to Nanri Island to gather for a while, and the most recent gathering was also on West Dog Island.

After two or three months, they gathered again on Caoyu Island, but this time the convener was not Zhang Hu, but Yu Xiaotian.

Originally, Yu Xiaotian's age and qualifications were not convincing to the public, so let him come forward to convene a meeting with this group of peers, and others could not sell his account.

But after looking at Yu Xiaotian's strength now, these peers found that Yu Xiaotian, a latecomer, actually came from behind, and his strength has increased several times in just over half a year, and now he has become the strongest force in the coastal area of Fuzhou, except for the Shark Gang.

Coupled with what Zhang Hu has done recently, these small groups of pirates have a sense of crisis, and it is not a strange thing for them to huddle together in cold weather to keep warm.

In order not to be swallowed up by Zhang Hu, they can only unite to fight against it, which is already a matter of lice on the bald head, so after being invited, these small groups of pirates agreed to Yu Xiaotian's invitation and went to Caoyu Island together to discuss how they should deal with Zhang Hu's matter in the future.

Caoyu Island is in the south of Haitan Island, across the sea from the land, and there were pirates on the island before, but then for some reason the pirate leader died violently, and his subordinates were scattered.

There is now a fishing village at the southeast and northwest corners of the island, and there are about 100 fishermen engaged in farming and fishing on Caoyu Island.

There is a small island in the north of Caoyu Island, which forms a natural haven between the two islands, and the meeting place of the small group of pirates along the coast of Fuzhou this time was chosen on Caoyu Island.
