Chapter 221: Supply Base

Danluo Island, in a thatched house, Li Yong looked at the mountain-backed brother who had thrown himself into the net, and was in a good mood, thinking that the Yin people on this island were killed by this person, and countless villages along the Datang coast were looted, he was now bursting with killing intent in his eyes, but in addition to revenge and hatred on the expedition to Danluo Island, another point was to get the evidence of those families colluding with pirates in Chaotian, Li Yong suppressed the killing intent in his heart, and asked coldly.

"Is it to confess honestly and avoid the pain of flesh and skin? Or do you try all kinds of torture before you recruit them? ”

"Kind of kill me."

Brother Shanbei shouted.

"Yo, still a hard bone? Okay, it depends on how long you can hold out, and I hope you don't let me down. ”

Li Yong snorted coldly disdainfully, what hard bones has he never seen? He looked around, then his eyes fell on a small simple table, and an idea occurred to him.

"Come on, fix this thing on the table, let him lie down comfortably, but let his hands take out."

Liu Renliang and Xiao Niu didn't know why, but they quickly pressed Brother Shanbei on the table, and the untied rope was re-tied, fixing his body and his hands and feet, and the whole person was in a big shape.

"Go, cut a little bamboo."

Li Yong ordered again, and after the little cow left in a hurry, Li Yong stared at Brother Shanbei and continued.

"Fingers to heart, I will use bamboo to make bamboo sticks in a while, slender, sharp, tough, and then insert them into your fingernails one by one, if you don't move, there are toenails, you have to be able to hold on to the end, count you as a winner, and promise not to kill you."

"Really?"

Brother Mountainback's eyes lit up, it's really ignorant and fearless! Brother Shanbei has never even seen the torture of sticking fingernails with bamboo sticks, so he naturally feels that it is not a big deal, and Brother Shanbei has more desire and persistence to live, and shouted hard.

"Come on!"

Liu Renliang also felt that there was no deterrent, and wanted to remind him, but he held back, he had seen what the hundred horsemen of the hundred horsemen were abused like when he was in the Turks, and not long after, the calf came over with a bamboo, Li Yong took it personally, took off a piece of the bamboo, cut it into a long bamboo stick, and motioned to Liu Renliang to help fix the palm of the mountain back brother, and after a while, there was a scream in the house.

"Ah~"

Brother Shanbei suddenly screamed out loud, feeling that his soul was trembling in pain, and his face was hideous, however, Li Yong knew how painful this pain was, under this kind of mental and physical double torture, the pain was constantly superimposed, even a specially trained tough guy couldn't bear it, unless he had a firm belief, obviously, this Shanbei brother is an egoist, how can he have any faith? It's too far off.

"Ah~"

A heart-rending scream shouted, the guards outside the thatched house and the patrolling marines heard the screams, none of them couldn't help but be moved, they couldn't guess what inhuman treatment the person in the house was suffering, and they were inexplicably a little scared in their hearts, the scream was really miserable, and he treated the enemy Li Yong like ice, and he would never be soft, especially this kind of enemy with deep hatred, Li Yong looked like a mountainback brother who was fished out of the water and said coldly.

"It's not bad, I held on to one, don't worry, just start, don't be cowardly, you are a good man who is not afraid of death, I heard that your father is Ezo, the prime minister of the Japanese country, you are also a nobleman, don't lose the face of the family, you must persevere to the end."

"Devil, you're the devil, devil, what the hell are you going to do?"

When Brother Shanbei heard this, he started to think that there were still nine fingers, and there were toes, which people could bear? Immediately collapsed, shouting indiscriminately.

"Hand over the evidence of your collusion with Tang officials and that organization."

"No...... There is no evidence. ”

"The answer is incorrect."

Li Yong snorted coldly and continued his work.

"Ah...... Stop, I say, I say. ”

Brother Shanbei couldn't bear it, and completely collapsed, his painful forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his face was pale.

"Wouldn't it be good if you did this earlier, you have to be tortured and suffered, let's say, don't lie, there is only one chance, otherwise I don't mind letting you taste Ling Chi again."

Li Yong warned coldly.

"I say, I say."

Brother Shanbei trembled with fright when he heard Ling Chi, he was familiar with this torture, he hurriedly said.

"That organization didn't have direct contact with me, but every time it sent someone to explain some things and intelligence, including establishing a supply base here to mine sulfur, and I only had correspondence with the Li clan of Zhao County, the officials of the Tang State, they provided information about the Tang State, telling us where there was grain, grass and property, and it was also the soldiers they transferred away to protect it, so that we could do it, and their condition was for us to cooperate with him to deal with the Tang Guohua Pavilion Marquis."

"What about the letters?"

Li Yong was furious.

"The letter is not here, it is in the hands of my father, and I will hand it over to my father when I return to China this time."

"What?"

Li Yong was furious, he hated to chop the other party with a knife, so he couldn't hold back and asked coldly.

"Is that organization already capable of making gunpowder and muskets? And why did you slaughter the villages, kill all the people, and rob the young and strong, and the young and strong? ”

"Indeed, they have been able to produce fire-breathing iron rods, no, they are muskets, as for Qingzhuang, we have already shipped them to China as slaves, which is also requested by the Li family of Zhaojun, saying that this can force the imperial court to come forward and hand you over in exchange for Qingzhuang."

Li Yong heard the roar in the sky and had developed black powder and imitated the musket, although he had guessed a little in his heart, but from the mouth of the mountain back brother, the pressure suddenly increased a lot, such a thing as gunpowder is a Pandora's box, once opened, it will have to suffer unpredictable consequences, Li Yong first opened this magic box, and it is only a matter of time before it is imitated by others, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, which also made him firmly sell the technology of black powder and the first generation of muskets to Li Er, Because only the large-scale preparation of the imperial court's army can deal with the follow-up attack of Chaotian Roar, in addition, he remembered that the Japanese had publicly asked to exchange themselves for prisoners, and Li Er of the imperial court also asked Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling to come forward as lobbyists, and let him lead the troops to Jiangnan to suppress the bandits, but he refused, and after thinking about it a lot, he felt that these behind him were really not simple, and none of them were fuel-efficient lamps, so he asked.

"Aren't you afraid that the Marquis of Huating will lead the troops to attack?"

"We naturally know that Huatinghou has a terrifying black army in his hands, and a large number of muskets, we are naturally afraid, but Zhaojun Li's disaster relief in Jiangnan, a figure who covers the sky with one hand, as long as Huatinghou leads the troops to Jiangnan, Zhaojun Li's will provide us with intelligence, and even create opportunities for us, I didn't say what specific opportunities were, after the fact, Zhaojun Li promised to assign Buyeo and Xincheng to my Waguo."

"Bastard, sell the land, you should be killed!"

Liu Renliang couldn't listen to it anymore, and said with red eyes.

"This news must be transmitted back to the imperial court and the dog thief must be killed."

"Do you have proof?"

Li Yong asked coldly.

"He's not the proof."

Liu Renliang pointed to Brother Shanbei, Li Yong shook his head, he was also angry in his heart, these families and Chaotian Roar colluded with pirates to slaughter the people, the purpose was to attract themselves to spend a lot of energy to entangle with pirates, find the right time to create opportunities for pirates to do it, they even did not hesitate to sell the country, this Zhao County Li should be killed, those families should be killed, Chaotian roared that this organization should be damned, all should be damned, as for what Brother Shanbei said, it is nothing more than using poison, revealing whereabouts, assassinating, not giving food and grass, etc., it is impossible to prevent it, After all, Li Yong led the army of the imperial court, not the direct black army or navy, so anything would be restricted by the imperial court, fortunately, he didn't feel right at the beginning, and he didn't agree, Xiao Niu saw what Liu Renliang was going to say, he interrupted.

"He is now the evidence, once he is out of his grasp and falls into the hands of the imperial court, he will bite back, saying that we have been beaten into a trick, and then the Li family of Zhaojun and those people will accuse us of framing the ministers of the court, and the court is worried that there is no handle to deal with us."

As soon as he said this, Liu Renliang's face froze, he couldn't imagine that one of Li Yong's chief guards could think of this, and he gritted his teeth with hatred.

"Is that all?"

Li Yong controlled his anger, patted Liu Renliang on the shoulder, and said meaningfully.

"When fairness is still there, evidence is very important, but when fairness is not there, evidence is a fart, the saint is not stupid, do you think he can't see it, why do you spare no effort to support the Zhaojun Li family?"

"Why?"

Liu Renliang was a little stunned at this time, because Li Er was Li Yong's father-in-law.

"Because the saint has already suspected me, the power of gunpowder and muskets has threatened his imperial power, and he knows everything that the Zhaojun Li clan has done, he can handle it at any time, even if the Zhaojun Li clan is raised, it can be easily suppressed, how is it different, so, compared to the two, the saint would rather support the Zhaojun Li clan to suppress us."

Liu Renliang said resentfully.

"Do you mean that the Holy Lord is borrowing a knife to kill people, and when the people are gone, he will break the knife again and sweep away all uncontrollable factors?"

Li Yong nodded silently, came to the door, looked at the soldiers in front of the logistics support troops who were busy cooking, the trees in the distance swayed with the wind, shaking the light and shadow all over the ground, and also shaking Li Yong's heart, the matter is already clear, where to go next? Liu Renliang also discussed, stood side by side with Li Yong, and also looked ahead and said softly.

"Boss, Zhao Jun Li and those people probably already know that we went to sea to look for evidence, those letters are a fatal blow to them, in order to avoid any accidents, maybe they have already prepared all kinds of countermeasures, and even disadvantage to all of us, but now that the evidence has not been obtained, it will be in vain to go back now."

"What do you want to say?"

Li Yong asked rhetorically.

"You have to get the evidence, and if you don't have the evidence, go back to the Li family of Zhaojun and those people, although they won't be protected, unless they completely tear their faces......"

Liu Renliang said resentfully.

"Taking evidence means going to the Wa Kingdom and going to war with the entire Wa Kingdom, are you sure?"

"If you start a war, you will start a war, what are you afraid of, our 3,000 marines here can be 10,000 people, not to mention that there are two people in hand, Brother Shanbei and Su Irulu."

Liu Renliang said indifferently.

"That's right, I also agree to go to war, I must get evidence, otherwise it will be too passive, today they can use pirates, and tomorrow they can directly kill them, not to mention that the saint is still protecting them, it is simply impossible to prevent it, unless the commander tears his face as the commander said, but many people in the court will not agree, and it is different if there is evidence."

The calf also came over and agreed.

"I know what you're saying, but now is not the time, our fleet only has six warships, and we are too weak in terms of strength, wait."

Li Yong has analyzed the before and after, and now the rash attack on the Japanese State is a bit more than worth the loss, because the six warships cannot completely block the sea area of the Japanese State, and this time as long as it is to clear the pirates of Danluo Island and find evidence, all kinds of materials are not prepared, so he can't fight a battle that he is not sure of, and he can't joke with the lives of his soldiers with blood, so he decided to return first, prepare everything and then officially crusade against the Japanese State, let them know that there is only one king on the sea, and that is him Li Yong. At the door of the thatched house, Li Yong's eyes were as cold as a knife, and after making up his mind, although it was really in vain to get the evidence this time to go back, the Zhao County Li family was protected by Li Er, and he couldn't move, unless he tore his face, or carried out assassination, but even if he succeeded, he couldn't nail the Zhao County Li family to the pillar of shame, and even had a reputation as a victim, and he became a murderer of indiscriminate killing, which is not advisable, since he wants to play, then play thoroughly!

"Liu Renliang, tomorrow we will return to sail, return to Huating as soon as possible, prepare all the materials to attack the Japanese country, I am going to establish a supply base on this Danluo Island, let a thousand marines stay behind and set up camps, and then build others after the follow-up personnel go to the island, and then order the Black Pearl They to increase the navigation here, assist in the defense of the supply base on Danluo Island, and the navy will send a coastal patrol team to garrison here, renamed the Danluo Island Detachment."

After listening to Li Yong's final decision, Liu Renliang didn't say anything, because he also knew that this time he was not fully prepared, and it was unwise to rashly attack the Japanese State, so he simply withdrew for the time being, and prepared everything to fight again. Because some of them want to stay here to establish a supply base, these supplies are necessary, this combined fleet is busy up and down, the sea, the land, full of people and landing craft, the next day, the remaining 1,000 marines watched the fleet set sail away, they as the first force stationed here, but also to establish a supply base camp, the responsibility can be described as heavy, the combined fleet quietly left the Huating County naval base no one knows, when they come back, it is also time, Also returned to the base in the hazy night, as if nothing had happened in the past half a month, after returning to Huating County, Li Yong and his wives had a day of warmth, and then began to be busy in the Imperial Shipyard again, because he had to hurry up, he wanted to prepare the warship as soon as possible, and conquer the Japanese State as soon as possible, the busy time was always fast, and unconsciously half a month had passed, at noon on this day, Gao Da and Liu Renliang came to the Imperial Shipyard to find Li Yong.

"What's the matter? Are you all ready over there? ”

Gundam hurriedly said.

"The necessary materials have been almost prepared, but there is a bad thing, saying that the DPRK and China have too many people working in our industry, and the discussion about affecting cultivation is getting stronger and stronger, and there is a trend of compulsory intervention and cancellation, and nothing else."

"Good work."

After Li Yong listened to what Gundam said, he didn't say anything, only frowned, he knew that this incident, he took away thousands of people in Chang'an, and tens of thousands of displaced people after being attacked by pirates along the coast, the scale is indeed not small, Li Er obviously saw the harm and used the excuse of affecting cultivation to make trouble.
