Chapter 189: Solemnly Recommended

Suddenly, Chu Cai Lao gathered his troops on Dongshan Island, and the news soon spread in Chaozhou Mansion, and the government immediately became nervous after hearing this, and hurriedly sent people to Guangzhou to inform the governor of Liangguang of the news, and at the same time ordered the surrounding prefectures and counties to strengthen their vigilance, and the coastal areas should be prepared to resist the enemy to prevent Chu Cai's boss from attacking and harassing.

However, the government was nervous this time, because Chu Cailao did not plan to attack the coastal area of Guangdong this time, but targeted the sea wolves on Nanri Island, which was hundreds of miles away from them in the north.

The whole Dongshan Island is as lively as if it is boiling, and the water boats are constantly going back and forth between the shore and the bay, replenishing the water tanks of each boat with fresh water, and there are also boats docking to replenish the food on the boats.

Because the distance from Dongshan Island to Nanri Island is hundreds of miles, even if it is a full speed sail with the wind, it will take at least two or three days, not to mention that these ships have different shapes, some are fast and some are slow, in order to cooperate with each other, they can only sail according to the slowest speed, so it will take longer to reach Nanri Island, according to the plan, they can reach Nanri Island after four days.

So these days, these guys can only live on the ship, and in order to reach the Nanri Island by surprise, Chu Cailao ordered them to bypass the main channel along the way, from the waters far from the shore to the north, no longer make any stops and supplies on the way, and rely on the food and fresh water carried by the ship to maintain the needs of the people on board.

Therefore, these guys had to complete these preparations on Dongshan Island before leaving, which made Chu Cailao, the big treasurer, a lot of blood, come too many boats, and each boat had to replenish a little food, and the whole amount was really a lot, and the grain he prepared in advance was used up by as much as three or four percent.

However, Chu Cai Lao is now full of confidence and in a good mood, thinking that this effort is still worth it, as long as he takes Nanri Island, the return will be dozens or even hundreds of times at that time, and he, as the big treasurer, will organize this operation, naturally he will take the lion's share, not to mention this bit of food at that time, even if it is more, he doesn't care.

But what Chu Cailao didn't know was that when he ordered the assembly, not far from Dongshan Island, there were also sea wolf eyes staring at Dongshan Island all the time, and there were also several small fishing boats near Dongshan Island fishing, secretly constantly recording Chu Cailao's boats coming from everywhere, and then summing up the numbers, there was a fast boat that quickly hoisted its sail and headed north.

Yu Xiaotian was in the wolf's den, and after listening to the news from his subordinates, he sneered, waved his hand, and said, "It's good!" I know that you have taken a lot of risks, and you have all worked hard, go down and have a good rest, and then go to the torture hall to receive the reward! ”

After hearing this, the subordinates who were sent to monitor Chu Cailao immediately bowed down and said, "I am willing to die for the big boss!" ”

Yu Xiaotian said with a smile: "I know your loyalty, but I want you to follow me for a long life, don't die or live at every turn, do it well, our good days are ahead!" ”

The subordinate gritted his teeth and smiled, the reason why they were willing to give Yu Xiaotian their lives was because Yu Xiaotian treated them like brothers, although he was strict, but he always knew how to take care of them, and most of the time they were happy with Yu Xiaotian, so after he thanked them, he turned around and retreated.

After the person who reported the news came out, Yu Xiaotian's face began to turn from sunny to gloomy, and became gloomy, and said to Liu Wang: "Invite your father-in-law, Li Dazui, Meng Fei, Liu Yidao, and the people in the council hall to discuss the matter!" ”

It didn't take long for the people who were named to walk into the council hall from outside, and after giving Yu Xiaotian a salute, they sat down according to their priorities.

When he saw that everyone was coming, Yu Xiaotian said to everyone: "Please come over today, two things, the first is to introduce a new brother to everyone!"

This is Mr. Lin Yiyang Lin, a high talent! I was hired by a certain firm, and I will stay here from now on and work with you!

Mr. Lin temporarily followed me as a staff officer, a staff officer, as the name suggests, is a senator plan! We don't have anything to hide from Mr. Lin here, I hope you can respect Mr. Lin in the future, and don't think that Mr. Lin is a latecomer, so you despise him!

Don't hide it from you, this time it is Mr. Lin who gives us advice to attract Chu Cai's poisonous snake out of the hole, otherwise we don't know how long Chu Cai's old harassment will be!

Mr. Lin, these are the ......"

Yu Xiaotian first introduced Lin Yiyang, who was sitting in his lower position, to the people who came today, and after he met Lin Yiyang, Lin Yiyang talked with him all night, and helped him come up with this idea to lure the snake out of the hole.

These days, Yu Xiaotian has been arranging according to Lin Yiyang's plan, and at the same time sending Liu Wang to accompany Lin Yiyang around Nanri Island on his behalf, and told Liu Wang and Lin Yiyang that as long as Lin wants to see the place, take him there, except for his back house, there is nothing that cannot be visited!

If you want to know something, just tell Lin Yiyang, let Lin Yiyang look at it casually, and don't treat him as an outsider.

Lin Yiyang was very happy, accompanied by Liu Wang, he walked around Nanri Island for many days, and learned all the places he wanted to see before, and the things that he couldn't inquire about.

Especially when he saw these large tracts of farmland on Nanri Island, as well as those well-managed migrant villages and fishing villages, as well as those islanders who lived here, Lin Yiyang admired Xiaotian a lot.

Because after reading these, Lin Yiyang felt that the rumors were indeed true, although Yu Xiaotian was a bandit, but he was doing the right thing, and the style of acting of ordinary bandits was very different, he knew more about the suffering of the people, so he treated the people on the island very kindly, and more importantly, through the place of Nanri Island, he could see that Yu Xiaotian's heart was very big, he was not just satisfied with being a pirate, it seemed that from this aspect, he felt that Yu Xiaotian wanted much more than what he had obtained now!

So Lin Yiyang's mind began to liven, and then, accompanied by Liu Wang, he went to see the shipyard of the sea wolf on the island, as well as the various forts and fortifications in the workshop area and Dazhai.

When he saw the cannons that had just been cast by a door placed in the cannon, Lin Yiyang was completely stunned, cannons are such things as cannons, there are such things in the state capital, county seats, and even some villages and towns, but the cannons that Lin Yiyang has seen are all short and small old-style earthen cannons.

Another time he saw a Hongyi cannon on the wall of Fuzhou City, and the defenders of Fuzhou City regarded this Hongyi cannon as a treasure, and there was a special person to guard it, and no one was allowed to approach.

But today, when he saw the scale of the sea wolf's cannon and the cast cannons, he recognized at a glance that these cannons were the best Hongyi cannons at the moment, although these Hongyi cannons were a little smaller, but there were also two heavy cannons similar to the Hongyi cannons on the city wall of Fuzhou.

For people who rarely come into contact with such things, when such a sharp cannon suddenly appeared in front of them, the impact felt by the psychology was not something that modern people could feel, and Lin Yiyang was stunned at that time.

Looking at these cannons, he was stunned for a long time before he tried to reach out and touch the polished smooth barrels.

When he saw Lin Yiyang's appearance that he wanted to touch but didn't dare to touch, Liu Wang smiled on the side: "Mr. Lin, you just have to touch them, touch them or not, we have a lot of these things at the moment, you haven't seen the biggest big guy yet!" That big guy is about to catch up with our waist, and when the cannon is fired, the sky is really shaking, and the liver is trembling! ”

Lin Yiyang stretched out his hand and touched the body of a six-pounder gun, carefully observed these cannons, and found that these cannons were simply like being cast in a mold, with a unified shape, smooth surface, no trachoma and bubbles, very well-made, lying on the muzzle of the cannon, there was a black hole inside, but from the muzzle, it could be seen that the bore of the cannon was polished very smooth, which he had never seen before.

So Lin Yiyang asked Liu Wang: "Brother Liu! Are these cannons really made by you sea wolves yourself? ”

Liu Wang's face was full of pride, and he nodded: "Mr. Lin, please go inside and take a look, you will know that this cannon was personally brought out by our big boss, the power is amazing, and there is a light door and a crosshair, and the hit is also very accurate!" Hit farther, you can hit five miles away! Even the Hongyi cannon cast in Foshan, Guangdong, is not as good as what we made ourselves! This is not a blow! ”

Lin Yiyang hurriedly followed Liu Wang into the cannon shed, the shed was in the heat wave, a large group of craftsmen were in full swing in the gunning, several iron melting furnaces started at the same time, melted the iron material input, and then from the bottom of the molten iron mouth, the molten iron exuded high heat and slowly flowed out, and was taken to the crucible by the craftsman, the crucible is now erected on a wheelbarrow, the trolley is also iron, one person can push.

These crucibles filled with molten iron are pushed onto a shelf, and poured into a mould that has been erected and buried in an earth pit through a mouth filled with molten iron, and this is the approximate process.

Lin Yiyang has learned a little bit about casting from books, and after reading it carefully, he didn't find that this is iron mold casting, but he knows a little about the casting process here, and now he completely believes that these cannons are made by these craftsmen of the sea wolf.

This time Lin Yiyang was convinced, because he couldn't stand the high temperature here, he quickly quit the shed, and after coming outside, he praised again and again, and now he finally understood why Yu Xiaotian dared to provoke Chu Cailao, he had such a sharp weapon in his hand, although Chu Cailao was too many, but what could he do with him?
