Chapter 367: Suspicion at Sea

It wasn't until Alida was about to pass out that Tian Bule interrupted him and said, "Wuda, what crime did he commit?"

Wu stopped panting, knelt on the ground, and said with tears in his eyes: "My lord, he has seized my belongings and house, and also robbed my wife. I was also called by him like a slave. Allow me to kill him. ”

Tian Bule was about to agree.

And out of the crowd came a woman, only to see the woman pear blossoms with rain, I saw pity, although the clothes on her body were ragged, but still could not hide her beauty.

Wu Da was surprised: "Ah Lian, why are you here?"

Ah Lian ignored Wuda and said, "King, I ask for a leave of absence from Wuda." ”

Tian Bule heard for the first time that a woman was going to divorce a man, and he wondered, "Why?"

Ah Lian cried to Tian Bule: "Wuda is greedy for life and afraid of death, in order to save his life, he dedicated me to Alida, and even Alida humiliated me in front of him, Wuda didn't dare to resist. What's the use of such a man?"

The people around him pointed at Wu Da one after another.

Wu Da defended: "I'm not cowardly, if I didn't do this, I would have been killed by them a long time ago." ”

Ah Lian pointed at Alida and said, "But why did you bring him home last night?"

Wu Da was speechless and couldn't say a word.

Since ancient times, it was difficult for Qing officials to cut off family affairs, so Tian Bule had no choice but to announce: "Wuda, you can't enter the house one step further before you get Ah Lian's forgiveness. Alida was inevitably responsible and was executed by Wuda himself. ”

After a farce was over, the handling of prisoners and belongings continued, and in the end only a dozen of the four or five hundred captives were spared. It's just that more than half of the property has not been collected, and the owner of these people has already been killed. Tian Bule divided these belongings equally among the old and weak women and children, and everyone was naturally grateful to Tian Bule.

After everything was finished, Ah Hui suddenly knelt down in front of Tian Bule and said, "King, I heard that you will leave soon." The pirates were killed, but now most of the men in the city were dead. If any more robbers come, we will be enslaved again. Ah Hui begged the king to accept us, the remnants of the diaspora. ”

The people around him also fell to their knees.

Tian Bule pondered for a moment, not knowing for a moment whether he should agree to them.

Peng Yue hurriedly said: "King, the climate here is warm and the land is fertile, as long as it is properly developed, it will definitely prosper." ”

Tian Bule then said: "Okay, you will be my people in Daqi in the future." This city is called Taifu. Ah Hui, I have ordered you to guard the city here. ”

Ah Hui was surprised: "King, I'm just a woman, how can I be a city guard?"

Tian Bule said with a smile: "Why can't a woman be an official? You have lost your husband and son, and you have lived strong until now." You handle things in an orderly manner and fairly and impartially. You'll be a good city guard. I will leave five hundred elite warriors behind to help you protect the people here. ”

Ah Hui finally nodded and knocked three times towards Tian Bule. 、

When Tian Bule announced that he would leave five hundred fighters behind, many people scrambled to choose to stay. Most of these soldiers are bachelors, and now there is a shortage of men in Taiwan, so naturally there is no need to worry about their wives if they stay here.

The fleet rested in Taifu for two days, replenished food and fresh water, found a few fishermen who were familiar with the sea, and left.

After setting off again, the fleet traveled surprisingly smoothly, during which they encountered many small islands whose names they did not know. Tian Bule ordered people to record the specific directions and mark the names one by one so that they could be found again in the future.

On this day, the wind and waves were calm, and Tian Bule sat leisurely on the deck, enjoying the scenery of the sea while eating mangoes and coconuts picked from an uninhabited island. Cangyue and Lianhua obediently tore the mango into pieces and fed it to Tian Bule.

Tian Bule waved his hand, stretched his legs, and said, "Don't eat, I'm so full." ”

Cangyue put away the mango, and Lianhua stepped forward to help Tian Bule massage and beat his legs.

At this moment, there was a piercing and loud "singing" from another bow ship.

Lianhua covered her ears and said, "Oh my God, the king, Wuda has started singing again." ”

Tian Bule smiled bitterly and shook his head. He really shouldn't have let Wuda follow the fleet at the beginning, because of his cowardly performance, Ah Lian refused to forgive him. Wu Da then asked to join the fleet to fight in order to prove that he was a man. Soon after departure, Wu Da sat on the deck of the bow of the ship and sang every day because he missed Ah Lian.

Tian Bule swore he had never heard a more heart-rending howl.

Originally, Wuda was arranged on the flagship, but within two days, he was transferred to another ship by Tian Bule, but he still sang on time every day. Tian Bule was very sympathetic to Wuda, so he had to let him continue.

Cangyue suddenly stood up and said, "Look, Wuda sang and attracted the shark here." ”

Tian Bule looked towards the sea, only to see a few black spots on the sea in the distance, and he could conclude that it was definitely not a shark.

Sure enough, after traveling for several miles, the ship at the front found several pieces of warship wreckage floating on the sea, and the wreckage was still hung with a meniscus flag.

When Cangyue saw the flag, she exclaimed, "King, the banner above belongs to our Yamatai, there must be a battle nearby." ”

The fleet moved forward for several more miles, wreckage mounting more and more. In addition to the wreckage of the warship hanging from the crescent, there is also a part of it from another force. In addition to the fragments of the ship, dozens of corpses were found on the surface of the sea, and there was not a single living mouth. The soldiers collected the artifacts from the wreckage and piled them on the plywood of the flagship.

Peng Yue, Xu Fu, Hua Jieyu and others also gathered on the deck to discuss.

Tian Bule observed, picked up a flag painted with Baoding, and said to Cangyue: "Judging from these wreckage, are it the people of the Wa Kingdom who destroyed your fleet?"

Cangyue shook her head and said, "The battle flags of the Wa Kingdom are often marked by mountains, forests, and animals, and I have never heard of the Baoding Banner. ”

Tian Bule reminded: "In addition to the Japanese State, are there other forces?"

Lianhua suddenly said, "Could it be someone from the Tamna Kingdom?"

Tian Bule remembered that Xu Fu had mentioned the Tamna Kingdom to him, but he was not very impressed, so he asked, "What is the origin of the Tamna Kingdom?

Cangyue shook her head, grabbed Tian Bule's arm, and said worriedly: "Tamna country, located in Jeju, in the northwest of the Wa country, where the water and grass are abundant and good horses are abundant. Now that the Wa Kingdom and the Tamna Kingdom are united, our Yamatai is even more dangerous. ”

From Cangyue's mouth, Tian Bule finally got to know the country of Tamna. Tamna is one of the few island countries dominated by cavalry, but cavalry is most effective in flat plains, and cavalry is inconvenient when fighting on rugged islands, so the strength of Tamna is not strong.

Tian Bule hugged the two daughters and comforted: "You don't have to worry, things may not be as bad as you think." ”

Peng Yue stood up and said, "Judging from the wreckage left, they only won a miserable victory in this naval battle, and this battle took place for no more than three days. Only by clearing the sea of power will they be able to land on the island of Kyushu to besiege you. Maybe Yamatai hasn't been captured yet. ”

Hua Xie further said: "Judging from the celestial phenomena, the next few days will be a tailwind, and we can reach Kyushu Island in three days." ”

Cangyue and Lianhua's eyes lit up, and hope was ignited in their hearts again.
