Chapter 256: Gambling Fight
"Ah He, you stay here to take care of the goods, Yingqi, Tongkang, come back to the ship with me!"
Murakami Takeyoshi commanded, leading the two men behind him back to the warship, and the group of pirates behind him also followed most of them, leaving only Ji Tai and another thin man standing behind the crane.
The bridge was removed, the large ship turned around and set sail, and Murakami Takeshi waved from the command platform and shouted, "Array!" ”
The eight ships on both wings quickly activated, set up formation, and faced the point of light in the distance.
"Crane girl, I didn't expect to meet again so soon." Long Tao stared at the crane's beautiful cheeks.
"Mr. Ashikaga, you shouldn't be so ostentatious about transporting such a valuable cargo." Hexiu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and it was difficult to hide his concern in a slightly reproachful tone.
"I heard from your leader that Miss Crane once pleaded for me? I'm really flattered under it! ”
"That's not a plea at all, I just persuaded the leader not to accept the employment of the big boss of Imai Sohisa."
"Even if it's a word of kindness, I'll remember it in my heart!"
"Mr. Ashikaga is serious." Tsuru shook his head, "What kind of kindness is this?" I just feel that I have a relationship with my husband, and I can't bear it...... It's Ozu and Shino, who are very worried when they hear that the big boss Imai is going to hire someone to rob you! Speaking of the back, I couldn't help but purse my lips and smile.
"Ozu and Shino, are they the two girls from last time?" Long Tao looked at her moving smile and couldn't help but ask, "Is Miss Crane worried about it?" ”
Crane was stunned, turned his head to look out of the boat, and sighed, "It's the same if you don't worry about it, anyway, I've already followed the leader to rob you." ”
"So, Imai hired you guys?"
"No, the leader did not accept the commission of the big boss of Imai Sohisa, and after hearing that you had 100,000 yuan worth of cargo on your ship, he decided to come and rob you personally."
"I see." Long Tao pretended to smile bitterly.
"Mr. Ashikaga, I'm sorry." Crane said apologetically: "I can't disobey Lord Murakami's order, I have to take your goods away today, you really shouldn't show up such a valuable cargo, 100,000 yuan, the amount is too amazing!" ”
After a pause, Tsuru continued: "But that's fine, I don't think there will be any pirates willing to accept the commission of the big boss of Imai, his price is far less than this amount, maybe you can save your life because of this, Imai's commission includes taking your life!" ”
After finishing speaking, Crane turned his head to look at Long Tao, and saw that there was a faint smile on his handsome face, and that look of nonchalance and as if everything was under control, which had a strange attraction.
"Mr. Ashikaga doesn't seem to be worried at all."
Long Tao took a step closer, almost touching her delicate ears, and whispered: "Seeing that the crane girl cares about my life, I am secretly happy in my heart!" ”
"Mr. Ashikaga ......" Tsuru took a slight step back and lowered his head.
At this moment, a cannon rang out, and the two of them looked east together, only to see a column of water stirring up in the sea between the two fleets, which should have been caused by the shelling just now.
Nineteen warships, including two large ships and seventeen customs ships, were nearly 100 meters away from the fleet of the Murakami naval army, facing each other from a distance.
"Are there going to be firefights?" Long Tao asked, "It seems that there are a lot of people on the other side." ”
"That shot was a signal for negotiations." Tsuru's voice was cold and full of confidence, "In the field battle on the sea, our Murakami Navy has never been afraid of anyone!" Look at each other's flags, they should be the water army of Salt and Awaji, hum! Do you think that the union of the two families will be useful, Murakami-sama will definitely teach them a lesson! ”
As soon as the words fell, a cannon sound came from the southwest, and the cannonball fell far behind the Murakami naval army, followed by another sound.
After three rings, ten warships approached at great speed, one large ship and nine closed ships, which were lined up in the flanks and rear of Murakami's fleet, forming a flanking attack.
"That's the banner of the Bungo Navy! I didn't think even they were coming! Crane's face finally changed, and he was angry with a hint of worry.
The Quartet Naval Army, three to one, has an obvious difference in numbers, but there is no exchange of fire for a long time.
Long Tao remembered Tsuru's words, and it was obvious that the other three were jealous of Murakami's water army.
He remembered the setting in the game, Murakami Takeyoshi has a very strong water army skill: Butterfly Array.
The Butterfly Array is a wind forest volcano on the water, and when used, it increases the movement speed, attack power, and defense power of the entire legion!
With this powerful skill, the Murakami Navy won more with less, and it was no problem at all, no wonder Tsuru would say that their Murakami Navy had never been afraid of anyone.
However, now it is three to one, twenty-nine ships to nine, and the number is too different...... Judging from the expression of the crane, the victory rate of Murakami's water army should not be high, and if it starts, it must be a big battle with heavy casualties.
The appearance of the Fenghou Navy made the originally tense confrontation situation instantly condense, but the oppressive atmosphere lasted for a short time before it was broken, and the four small sampans were lowered from the four large ships and headed towards the water in the middle of the four water armies.
Each sampan carries two people, one paddling and the other standing on the bow of the boat, towards the same point of rendezvous.
"They're going to negotiate." Crane sighed: "In the face of the three coalition forces, Lord Murakami also has to compromise......" After speaking, he looked at Long Tao faintly.
Long Tao looked back at her and said with a smile: "Crane girl, you are so beautiful!" ”
Tsuru didn't avoid his burning gaze this time, and frowned his delicate long eyebrows, "You person, don't you know how to be afraid at all?" They negotiate to decide what to do with you and your goods! ”
"With a beautiful girl like you by your side, even if you die, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Long Tao saw that she turned his head to look at the place where the four sampans had gathered, and his mind moved, and his spiritual sense was released, and he instantly grasped everything that happened there.
Murakami Bukit stands on the bow of the boat, still domineering, and opposite him is the leader of the other three pirates.
"Miyamoto, Azuta, Wakabayashi, what do you mean, you want to go to the territory of my village's water army to rob? Zhoufangtan has always been under our jurisdiction, could it be that you want to break the rules of the pirates? ”
The eldest, the leader of the Awaji Water Army, Antaku Fuyasu, said with a smile: "Buji, we are not here to rob, we are here to be bodyguards, and we want to escort that kid from the Ashikaga Yoshishi clan to Gyeonggi, this is not a broken rule." ”
"Bodyguards?" Murakami Takeshi sneered: "Atakaku, are you a three-year-old child!" I'm afraid that as soon as the Ashikaga Yoshishi leaves the range of Zhoufangtan, you will immediately start killing people and stealing goods! ”
Miyamoto Tatsuo, the leader of the salt-saturated water army, who was wrapped in a white scarf and had a cold face, said coldly: "Okay, there is no need to talk nonsense around and around!" We all know what our purpose is. Murakami, 100,000 is such a big amount, it's impossible for you to swallow it by yourself! And your willingness to negotiate means that you don't want to go to war easily, so let's quickly agree on a solution! ”
Wakabayashi Zhenxing, the leader of the Fenggo Water Army, said: "Let's divide the four families equally, and one family will be 25,000 yuan, which is the fairest." ”
Takeshi Murakami shouted: "Wakabayashi! The three of you have blatantly come to my territory and want to share the goods equally with me? Do you think of me as a three-year-old kid? Want to split evenly? I'd rather fight! ”
The three of them saw Wu Ji's angry appearance and knew that he was really angry, after all, this was already related to his pirate face.
An Zhai Dongkang rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It's better like this, Bukit, for the sake of you being the landlord, I will give you 10,000 guan first, and the remaining 90,000 kan, we will divide it through nine gambling battles, and the winner of each game will get 10,000 kan, but you can't participate in the competition in these nine games, how about it?" ”
"No way!" Takeshi Murakami shouted: "10,000 guan is too little, give me 40,000 guan first!" ”
"Bukit, don't go too far! Up to 20,000 times! Miyamoto shouted.
"Alright, 30,000!" Murakami waved his hand, "If it doesn't work, let's go to war!" ”
Miyamoto, Antaku, and Wakabayashi glanced at each other and nodded: "Okay! ”
"Okay, let's gamble on that kid's passenger ship, you go back to choose people, you can only bring the people who participate in the fight, and if you win, you can take the goods away."
Long Tao looked at the four sampans that had returned to their respective large ships the same way and smiled slightly.
"Now that's interesting!"
