Li Guangtou and Xu Dong are from Fujian, and they rarely have anything to do with other Japanese robbers, and if it weren't for Wang Zhi's invitation this time, they wouldn't have participated.

These 3,000 Japanese robbers, all of them are the elite of the major Japanese robbers, brave in battle, Li Guangtou and Xu Dong have more than 1,000 people, this time although everyone is jointly promoted Wang Zhi as the leader, but since the seizure of Hangzhou, Li Guangtou and others contributed the most, if it were not for their fire team to repel the siege of the official army again and again, I am afraid that this Hangzhou would have changed hands long ago.

Li Guangtou is about thirty years old, in fact, the current leader of the Japanese is not very old, but they are all characters who crawled out of the pile of dead, which makes people feel fierce at a glance, he chewed the tobacco leaves from the Francois in his mouth, and seemed to get some kind of stimulation from this tobacco leaf, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and then he spit out the residue, his eyes narrowed: "The brothers took the risk to follow the king and the owner to come to Hangzhou, but not to conquer the city, and the court is not a soft persimmon, we are taking advantage of their efforts to have the opportunity to come to Hangzhou, Why don't you take this opportunity now to let the brothers have fun and grab more things, what are you waiting for, until there are more and more officers and soldiers outside the city, and catch turtles in the urn? ”

Speaking of this, Li Guangtou was angry, and finally came to Hangzhou, but this Wang Zhi said to be careful and vigilant, stick to the city, what is the use of sticking here? This Hangzhou can only get benefits if it is robbed, can this city wall be eaten?

Xu Dong, who was sitting on the side of Li Guangtou, also smiled coldly and said: "What Brother Li said is very true, we are here to be thieves, not to go out, the brothers can't control themselves anymore, so we have to mutiny if we continue like this." ”

Wang Zhi sat in silence, he was in his early thirties, and he was wearing a Confucian shirt, although his skin was dark. But with a bit of gentleness, at first glance, it doesn't look like a giant who crosses the world, but like a reader.

In fact, there was no need for him to speak, several leaders nearby had already stood up like thunder, and angrily reprimanded: "The king ship owner asked us to defend the city, naturally he has his intentions, what are you talking about!" ”

"Well, there's no place for you to talk here!"

Lee's bald head was hideous. With a bit of murderous intent in his eyes, Sen Ran glanced directly at the king and said, "Ship Master Wang, before you came, but you and we ......"

Wang Zhi smiled slightly. coughed and said, "What's the point of arguing now, let's go deep into the tiger's den now, if we don't work together, it won't be easy to leave." I'm bringing you here, looting is secondary, this is the most important. But we want the court to know how powerful we are, and when we come to the court to be unfair, the brothers are happy, but now the court wants to embarrass us. This made the brothers beg for food. To be a man, you have to look far away, what is the use of robbing this Hangzhou? This bit of silver may be enough for the brothers to eat, drink and have fun for half a lifetime, but what about the rest of their lives? We've worked so hard. Just for this? Captain Lee, let's come here. It is to force the imperial court to appease us, and we have to force the imperial court to open the sea to us, only when the imperial court opens the sea to us, and we transport the goods of the Ming Dynasty to the various domains overseas every year, in order to make heavy profits from it. ”

Li Guangtou sneered: "The imperial court appeases us, Ship Master Li is too naïve, is this imperial court credible?" ”

Wang was expressionless and said: "Whether it can be trusted or not, it depends on your strength, we have taken Hangzhou today, who is our opponent among the officials and troops in all parts of the south of the Yangtze River?" The new army in Jiangnan is vulnerable, but even if the imperial court sends elite encirclement and suppression, it will take a few months, therefore, in my opinion, this imperial court does not dare to take risks, at least within a month, we will Hangzhou safely, the imperial court is afraid that things will be big, so we have to send people to appease, we take the opportunity to put forward conditions, let the imperial court entitle our official positions, obtain the right to monopolize, and then take the edict to escape to the sea, future trade, only need to let irrelevant sailors with ships to load, unload, if the imperial court regrets, As long as we still have brothers in our hands, we can attack Hangzhou today and Quanzhou tomorrow, so within this month, we must hold Hangzhou firmly and hold here, so that the court can afford us and have to submit. ”

Li Guangtou sneered: "What if the imperial court has to exterminate us?" ”

Wang Zhi narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "If the imperial court really wants to exterminate us and others, we will give them some color to see, do you see those officials and soldiers under the city?" Let's kill them on their backs, break through, a few months later, let's come again, this time it's Hangzhou, the next time it's Ningbo, these new troops in the south of the Yangtze River are all wine bags and rice bags, don't worry! ”

Li Guangtou said angrily: "Where is it as easy as you say, there are tens of thousands of officers and soldiers outside!" ”

Wang Zhi smiled: "Although it is tens of thousands, what if someone reports to us?" What if there were any of us among these tens of thousands? We attacked Hangzhou, but we helped many people a lot, and they couldn't repay this kindness. ”

After that, Wang Zhi said slowly: "Last night, I had ordered someone to send out the table, and now what I am waiting for is the reaction of the court. ”

Li Guangtou couldn't help but be moved: "You mean to say that there are our people in this Ming court?" ”

Wang Zhi stood up and said: "Of course, there is no one in the imperial court, but there are many in this new army, otherwise how could we have such a small number of people all the way to Hangzhou unimpeded." In the future, if you and I get an order, and then return to the sea and obtain the right to franchise, I am afraid that the shipowners and water thieves in the four seas will obediently bow down to you and me, and integrate them, and we will have 100,000 waterway heroes, even if the court wants to regret it, it will still make them unable to eat and walk, and the things in this world are compared to the fist, and the fist is still there, so we don't have to put the court in our eyes. ”

Suddenly revealed so many hidden secrets, the leaders in the city tower are secretly digesting, they can't think that this qiē is the arrangement of the king ship owner, but I have long heard that the king ship owner is different from others, others are outside, mostly to plunder, but he is mostly a merchant, and some families in the south of the Yangtze River are very close, and even with many daimyo of the Wa Kingdom are also in contact from time to time, transporting a shipload of goods out, and then into the interior.

Li Guangtou slapped his thigh and said, "Well, since you are so confident, I will naturally obey you, but ...... You have to keep your brethren safe, or ......"

He didn't say much, he didn't say hello, he walked out, and Xu Dong saw that Li Guangtou was leaving, so he hurriedly chased after him, went out of the city tower, and said in a low voice: "Master Li, you really believe in this surnamed Wang, if there is really an edict, is he willing to give you a piece of the pie?" ”

Li Guangtou glanced at Xu Dong, and saw that his eyes were cold and gloomy, like a poisonous snake ready to attack, Li Guangtou laughed and said, "How can I believe him, doesn't he also have something to say?" In this world, whose fist is the biggest is real, Li has so many brothers here, even if he wants to sell, he has to see if there is such a thing! ”

Xu Dong smiled: "Yes, since you are here, let's take one step at a time, I think this surnamed Wang is not simple, they are the most cunning people in the Jianghuai area, in short, be careful." ”

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Watching Li Guangtou leave unceremoniously, someone in the city tower couldn't help but snort coldly: "This surnamed Li is really rude, Wang Shipowner, these people have always been messing with the Francois people, and the Francos have always wanted to take the opportunity to rob them of our trade with the Wa Kingdom, I think the surname Li and the surname Xu are uneasy and kind." ”

There are always hundreds of Japanese people on the sea, the large ones are thousands, and the small ones are hundreds, but these people can be roughly divided into two categories, one is Wang Zhi, who mainly trades with the Japanese people, and the fighters they recruit are mainly Japanese people. And others, like Li Guangtou, are mostly related to the Franco, and they are more of the agents of the Franco. The Franco-Japanese have long coveted the Japanese and have always wanted to monopolize the trade with the Japanese, which touched the interests of Wang Zhi and others, so Li Guangtou and Wang Zhi have always been incompatible.

Merely...... Wang Zhi smiled slightly, and didn't care about it: "The reason why I invited them here is to be on the safe side, and secondly, to give them a little sweetness, these two people are actually not enough trouble, they are still needed at the moment, and when things are done, they will have no effect." However, everyone must restrain their subordinates, don't have any conflicts with them now, as long as we are still inland, we must unite sincerely, and whatever accounts there are, we will wait until we return to the sea......" Wang Zhi's eyes narrowed slightly, blooming with a glimmer of light, and said slowly: "As long as Da Ming agrees to our conditions, don't say it's them, it's the Francois people, and the old man will also compete with them, they want to stretch their hands here, and we will stretch out our hands to the South Seas in the future." ”

"I'm afraid...... On the side of the imperial court...... "Some people are still worried......

Wang Zhi smiled slightly: "It's okay...... The court is a spinning top, you hit him before he is willing to move, if he refuses, then hit a dozen on it, you have been careful recently, someone outside the city sent me a message, saying that tomorrow morning, the official army will organize a siege again, this time the target is not Wulin Gate, but Qingchun Gate, and later the fourth child will go to negotiate with Li Guangtou, just say that their brothers are also tired, please go to Qingchun Gate to rest. ”

There was a burst of laughter from the castle tower.
