Chapter 129: Special Competition

Along. The Diaoyu Islands did not encounter a pirate ship. Threatened Chinese and foreign fishing and merchant ships plying and fro between the archipelago. Great gratitude was expressed for the appearance of the Diaoyu Island.

"Captain Song." The first mate said to Song Jiliu. "I don't believe in the legend of this pirate group. This is probably the code name that the pirates used in turn. for there is no one who claims to have seen him. ”

These words reminded Song Jiliu. It immediately reminded him of the hearts of the people.

"First mate Ma." Jiliu asked. "Do you know a mobile people's heart?"

The first mate immediately thought for a moment and said, "I've heard about this ship." Because this ship often trafficks people to Japan and other places. ”

Jiryu exclaimed, "One day I'm going to catch him." Destroy him. ”

A few days later. When the Diaoyu Islands came to the Diaoyu Islands. The islands are under threat from pirates. A masted ship raises a warning flag. All the pirate ships immediately lined up to challenge

Song Jiliu ordered the Diaoyu Dao to make all preparations for battle. on the gun emplacement. Each cannon was loaded with gunpowder. On deck. The short cannon was also loaded. Pike. Pistol. Sabre. The axes are all distributed. The Diaoyu Island soon approached the enemy ship.

A motorized pirate ship opened fire on the Diaoyu Islands. Shells flew over the deck of the Diaoyu Islands. Broke a few slings. Wounded a couple of sailors.

Jiliu responded calmly. He kept the steamer as close as possible. Only then did the port cannon be ordered to bombard a small pirate steamer. This little steamer was lucky. A gust of sea breeze shifted its position. Only two or three shells were hit at the hull waterline. But the port side of another British-style light corsair was hit by most of the shells fired from the Diaoyu Islands. The sea rushed into the ship like a tidal wave.

The British-style light corsair sank in less than five minutes. The Diaoyu Island launched a second shelling. A flaming cannonball exploded on the pirate ship Wolf. The boat sank quickly. Pirates overboard. They swam to the August ship. The first time to update it. The August Corsair saw that the situation was not good. Tighten the throttle and flee in the direction of Japan.

Then. Jiliu was found on the sea in the other direction. There was a large steamer chimney emitting large black smoke. I am increasing the throttle and trying to fly away.

Jiliu recognized. That's the Minxin. If he ordered. It is completely possible to catch up and cut off the route of the Minxin ship. So. The August pirate ship was able to escape. Driven by a strong sense of responsibility. Jiryu restrained his inner impulses. The order to pursue the Viking Ship Minxin was updated as soon as possible. Less than an hour. He caught up with the August pirate ship. The starboard side of the Diaoyu Island was spitting strong artillery fire. Several bullets hit this pirate ship. A fire broke out on board. After a while, it sank into the waves.

A day after the Battle of the Diaoyu Islands. Jiryu saw a letter to him on the table in the room. The font is very similar to the letter received in the previous branch. The letter invited him in the first week of next month. Drive the boat to the waters of the Great North Island and the Great South Island.

The suspicious Jiliu blew the whistle and called the sailors on duty. The sailor on duty said he hadn't seen anyone here. Song Jiliu pondered. It was decided not to mention the matter to anyone again.

this day. The Diaoyu Dao came to the Great North Island and the Great South Island of the Diaoyu Islands. Over here. Jiryu was warmly received by the commander of the American fleet. In small talk. The American commander said: "I remember three days ago. There is a ship with the British flag. It is said that the steamer of the Minxin has just sailed from here to Huangweiyu. Be the first to update"

"It's great news."

Get the news. Jiryu decided right away. In the breeze. The Diaoyu Island left the small island of Danan. But. Until a week later. They searched all the nearby ports. Crossed the Diaoyu Islands of China. There is still no trace of the Minxin ship.

Jiliu ordered to turn north. Such. They will be able to reach Ningbo in no time.

One day in August 1945. More and faster chapters are here. When the Diaoyu Dao crossed an unnamed island of China. The sailor, who was looking at the mast, suddenly shouted: "There is a ship ahead of the starboard side." ”

It was an unflagged ship traveling close to land. Because night is coming. Can't see clearly. But its actions are clearly evasive. Jiliu immediately commanded the first officer, "Keep an eye on it." I followed it until dawn. ”

The next day. When the morning fog clears. It is clear that the waterline of this steamer is shallow. Armed with more than a dozen guns. The Chinese flag aboard the Diaoyu Islands. More and faster chapters are here. Blowing in the wind. A signal was given to the Minxin to stop the ship. on this. The people's hearts ignored it. Its course and speed did not change.

The Diaoyu Island has a throttle. The People's Heart also fought hard. It seems that it wants to keep this distance from the Diaoyu Islands. The men on my gunboat the Diaoyu Islands were in a hurry. But there was no way at all.

This went on all day.

"Could it be that it is also heading for the Dongsha Islands?" Jiliu said to himself. That's when it happened. In the midst of numerous fishing and merchant ships. The Minxin suddenly disappeared from the sight of the Diaoyu Island.

Two days of searching yielded no results. Song Jiliu had to decide to anchor in the Dongsha Islands. A corner of the Dongsha Islands. The "bazaar" there is a market dedicated to human trafficking. "Bazaar". A group of people who were captured by Japanese devils. It's up to them to decide their fate in today's auction. "Intermediaries" gather in the market. Bustling. Follow the rules here. They can gouge prices.

It's five o'clock. The opening price rose from 1,000 to 2,000 oceans. At this time, two people appeared in the market. It caused the surprise and uneasiness of the merchants. They are the famous Xiang Minxin and Yan so.

The arrival of the people's hearts. It also causes fear in an elderly female captive. She was sitting in the corner of the market. Then she suddenly stood up. Slowly retreat. Wrap yourself in a tattered cloak. Hidden in the crowd.

Xiang Minxin swept the captives with a sophisticated gaze. He Yan bit his ear like this. The price of three thousand five hundred oceans was quoted. A certain Malayan merchant and his men reported three thousand seven hundred oceans. Xiang Minxin raised the price to 3,500 oceans. Then. His gaze was drawn to the two captives in the first place. This bad thing took a few steps. Surprised, he said, "It's really them." ”

The young man looked at his father's patron in astonishment. It turned out that the two captives were Wu Shouyi and Li Shangbai. The merchants of Malaysia offered a price of four thousand.

"Four thousand five." The people's hearts have responded.

It was only at this time that Li Shangbai understood the intention of the people. He hugged Wu Shouyi tightly in his arms. Unless he is killed. to take Wu Shouyi from him.

In the silence of the audience. A clear and trembling voice sounded: "Five thousand oceans." ”

Xiang Minxin looked back. A group of sailors walked into the bazaar. At the head was a young officer. He is Song Jiliu.

The people are determined to "fight" to the end. So he cried out, "Six thousand." ”

Song Jiliu cast a flat look at Wu Shouyi. Calmly said: "Seven thousand." ”

Then. Yan was so anxious. But there is no way. Because. He knows. He couldn't control the fanatical brain of the people's hearts anymore.

Just when a puff of white smoke rose from Dongsha Island. There was a moment when the cannon was heard as the port was closed. Song Jiliu issued loudly: "Fifteen thousand oceans." ”(..)
