Chapter 215: Xuanwu

Quanzhou City, in the city lord's mansion, the face of the city lord of Quanzhou is pale, at this moment, his two small eyes are extraordinarily bright, this is the appearance of a city lord, and it is very different from the usual businessman who is angry and wealthy.

"What do you say? Those pirates are not honest in the pirate den, and they dare to send someone to rob the ship! The city lord's face was full of anger, of course he knew about the rampant piracy, and even some of the pirates had secret dealings with him.

Pirates are like leeks, cutting a stubble and growing a stubble, and killing them inexhaustibly. The ocean is incomparably vast, and if people escape into the sea by boat, even if they are powerful generals, there is no way. Besides, with the strength of Quanzhou, there is no need to fight for a few pirates.

However, the reason why the city was furious this time was that the group of pirates actually targeted Ji Yunkong's cargo ship. As the saying goes, cutting off people's financial routes is like killing their parents, and this batch of goods is a mineral that can bring millions of gold profits to Quanzhou! How could the city lord of Quanzhou allow the other party to act recklessly.

"Quick, send a warship to attack, and be sure to protect Ji Gongzi's goods." The city lord ordered.

"This ......" the soldier in front of him hesitated a little, "Back to the city lord, this time the pirates of the entire East China Sea have moved, and there are also several powerful pirates in the South China Sea. If the troops are not enough, I am afraid that the troops will be lost. ”

As he spoke, Ji Yunkong's figure had already broken in from outside the door.

"City Lord, what's going on? My cargo ship will be intercepted in the East China Sea, and several pirates will be provoked, can you, as the city lord of Quanzhou, ignore it? Ji Yunkong said angrily.

The city lord of Quanzhou was speechless, his identity was not only a businessman, but also the city lord of Quanzhou, and he had the responsibility to protect the safety of the party. And those pirates, although they were a little cruel and cunning, did not do anything too out of the ordinary, and the city lord turned a blind eye to them.

What the city lord didn't expect was that this time the pirates were so bold, probably because of their wealth and wealth, and millions of gold goods covered their sanity.

"City Lord, now my crew is fighting them at sea, but they have blocked the road to Quanzhou, and my crew can't hold out for even three days." Ji Yunkong was sweating profusely, obviously angry.

The city lord hurriedly smiled and said, "Young Master Ji, don't be excited, I'll send a fleet to rescue me immediately." ”

"Rescue?" Ji Yunkong sneered, "City Lord, it's not that I don't believe you, if you have the strength to rescue, the surrounding pirates will not be rampant enough to dare to rob my ship." You must know that for this escort, all the guards were personally selected by me, and most of them were veteran sailors who had experienced countless storms and waves, as well as retired sailors. Ordinary bandits, going up is looking for death. ”

"This ......" The city lord was extremely embarrassed, "Ji Gongzi, I won't tell you, the Tao here is also clear compared to you, but don't worry, our Quanzhou definitely has the strength to rescue your fleet." ”

"I know, the officials and bandits colluded, Lord of the City, this time, it shouldn't be that you want to empty the gloves of the white wolf and deliberately let the pirates rob the ship, right?"

"This ...... Childe is too worried," the city lord hurriedly said, "I don't dare to do this." "He really didn't dare, in the past few days, Ji Yunkong has been purchasing a large number of materials in the city, coupled with the joint venture between the city lord and major merchants, Ji Yunkong's mining intentions have long been known. At this time, if he colludes with pirates and reports to the police casually, isn't he dead?

"That's it, that's it. Childe, what do you think of this? This time, in order to prove my innocence, I will accompany you to personally go to suppress the bandits, if you don't destroy that group of pirates, you won't go back to Quanzhou, how about it? "The city lord is also ruthless, those pirates have undoubtedly violated his bottom line, since they are so ignorant of lifting, then they all die!

"Good!" Ji Yunkong grabbed the city lord's hand, "The city lord has to talk about it." ”

"That's nature, come here, take my armor. The order went down and activated the Xuanwu warship, this time the city mainly pro-conscripted the navy. ”

After hearing this, Ji Yunkong almost laughed, the bucket-like body of the city lord actually has a battle armor, what kind of battle armor can hold him?

"Go, go, go, Ji Gongzi, let me show you why our Quanzhou can become the first port of Datang, and why our navy will become the strongest navy." The city lord pulled Ji Yun's empty hand and walked with him like a door.

Ji Yunkong was dragged by the city lord to the military camp in Quanzhou, their military camp was also built according to the port, and when he came to the camp, he saw the warship covering the sky and the sun in the distance before he saw the sergeant and the camp tent. This is not only the military camp of Quanzhou, but also the largest seaport in Quanzhou! Here, there are thousands of warships, covering the sky and the sun, and from a distance, it is as impregnable as a bunker on the water.

In it, a warship towers above the clouds like a golden rooster**, despising all its kind around it.

This ship, is five stories high, the head of the square has no sails, there are more oars on both sides, each floor has a half-height female wall, the first layer is surrounded by wooden planks, there are still countless sword holes, spear holes, you can attack from afar, and you can defend closely. In addition, the upper part of the building ship is covered with weapons such as stones and iron spikes, and above the deck, it is enough to run horses.

This building ship is enough to carry 5,000 soldiers, and when sailing on the sea, there is almost no need for soldiers to jump in hand-to-hand combat, and the collision of ships alone is enough to crush all the ships in front of them.

The city lord looked smug and said, "How? This is the building boat Xuanwu. It is built by the Datang Ministry of Industry with the drawings of the Tiangong family of the year, riding the wind and waves, invincible. Moreover, don't think that it is an ordinary building ship, the craftsmanship inside is very complicated, even if it is a big wind and waves, it will not sink, completely overcoming the shortcomings of the building ship. ”

"Sizzle-" Ji Yunkong gasped, the biggest disadvantage of the building ship is that it is difficult to resist the wind and waves, so the building ship can hardly be used for naval battles. If the Tiangong clan really comes up with a way to overcome this, then this "Xuanwu" will undoubtedly become the overlord of the sea!

When the city lord saw Ji Yunkong's shocked appearance, he was suddenly a little proud: "Master Ji, have you seen the true strength of our Quanzhou?" I'm not afraid to tell you that 'Xuanwu' is not the strongest warship of the Tiangong clan, and the imperial court is studying 'Gonggong'. Legend has it that the 'Gonggong' is a ten-storey building that can carry 10,000 soldiers and a thousand feet of ship, and once it is built, it is simply a city on the sea. ”

In addition to "Xuanwu", there is also "co-work". Ji Yunkong suddenly felt a heartfelt fear for the Tiangong clan who had disappeared. The people of this tribe are so powerful, how do they think about these things? If it weren't for the fact that they were all madmen who were obsessed with research, the whole land would have been ruled by them a long time ago, right?

"Ji Gongzi, I have decided, this time, I will directly wipe out the surrounding pirates with the power of thunder, which can be regarded as promoting the prestige of my Tang Dynasty." The city lord's eyes were full of murderous aura.

Ji Yunkong was overjoyed in his heart, since the other party said so, then the strength of the Quanzhou Navy Army would be at least taken away by him. If this is the case, the chances of the Heian Army will be much greater
