Annan, Song Ying'an and Zhou Bin were also very surprised after receiving the instructions from the imperial court, and the two of them pondered.

They did prepare the tax money early, and this was not in a hurry.

It's just that the two of them are very worried about one thing, the imperial court knows the situation on their side, will they send other people to come and accept Annan?

This is absolutely impossible, just after stabilizing and sending another person over, it will definitely ruin Annan.

They also didn't want the court to know Annan's true strength, not to deceive the saints, but to think that those old ministers in the court were too much.

Annan didn't give a little money, didn't send a little bit of troops to support, and didn't give food, so Hou Ye fought alone.

The key is that the land was laid down by the Hou Ye himself, but what is the reason why the imperial court wants to tax silver at this time?

This made them very confused in their hearts about what the imperial court wanted to do!

The faces of those old ministers are too thick.

"Otherwise, let's talk to the imperial court first, that is, send someone over and say that our economy has not recovered from Annan.

Everything else is also being prepared, anyway, it is impossible to pay the fee so quickly, and I hope that the imperial court will wait until next year to collect it. ”

"If the court agrees, it will be a great joy, if the court does not agree, at least there will be an idea in the heart of the court, we Annan are trying our best to make up the tax money."

"If we hand over the tax money to them without saying a word, it will seem that it is very easy for us to pay the tax and silver here in Annan."

"Okay, I understand what you said, don't worry, I'll go to the people in the court to reason about it in person, I don't believe it, this matter can't be solved."

"Since Annan's side has just developed, the imperial court is going to intervene, it really doesn't make sense at all!"

The hearts of the two of them are becoming more and more disappointed in this court, if the people of Annan know about this, then they will be even more disappointed in their hearts, and maybe they will wholeheartedly join the king of Annan.

That is, Zhao Houye.

Zhao Hengyi didn't know what was going on here, he was still looking for pirates on the ocean.

After eating and drinking, everyone was ready to use this small island as a stronghold, after all, this island has a lot of supplies stored on it.

These things can bring them good logistical supplies, Zhao Hengyi is specially built, he knows that as a large army, there are many things that need to be supplemented.

After determining the position and leaving a few people behind, their sailors began to set off again.

And this time the guy in charge of leading the way is the guy named Zheng Hailong, he said that there are many islands here, and the largest of them is called the White Dragon Gang!

The reason why this White Dragon Gang is the largest pirate group is because they have advanced weapons and equipment, and they also have tens of thousands of people, which is comparable to the sailors of many small countries.

According to Zheng Hailong, they originally had the ability to attack other countries, but the gang leader especially liked to be pirates, so he just persevered, and the others couldn't do anything.

After all, only the gang leader can mobilize their islands to attack other countries, and others do not have this right.

"Wow, that's quite unique, but you guys are too underestimating those small countries, even if they are a country.

Then they naturally have their own combat readiness forces, their own army, and their own sailors. ”

"You little pirates want to take down a country, what do you think? Even Annan can't beat you, or you go to Annan now and give it a try! ”

As soon as these words came out, Zheng Hailong had nothing to say, and Zheng Hailong also knew very well that their pirates were pirates after all, but a group of grass robbers could win one or two cities, which was already a great victory.

If you take a country, you can no longer call it a pirate, they have already reformed their ways, and they have become a truly literate person.

"Hey, did you show the way right? How do I feel like you're deliberately leading us to remote places. ”

"Don't be careful, or I'll let you walk around without food, don't underestimate us!"

Zhao Hengyi's tone was very angry, if this Zheng Hailong still dared to deceive himself, then he would definitely not hesitate to slap him.

At the same time, throw him into this great ocean, let him get away here, let him deliberately point the wrong way.

"Oh, big brother, don't worry, how could I show you the wrong way? I'm pointing you the right path, it's just going to take a little time.

You have to believe in me, believe in my strength, believe in my vision, believe in my sailing experience, I have been a pirate for so long and have never missed a path! ”

"Any idea why it is? Because of my natural acuity, I can walk in this ocean on my own, even without relying on a compass. ”

"Okay, stop bragging, believe it or not, I'll just throw you down and mumble here."

After about half a day, it was getting dark again.

After all, it was driving on the ocean, and there was no choice but to spend the night on the ocean, and there was no reliable island for them to land.

Spending the night on the ocean is still quite scary, because you don't know the route of the voyage and you don't know how the ship should go.

It was only by feeling, and their boatmen had been very careful to control it.

Once an accident occurs, it is necessary to take a preventive action as soon as possible, otherwise the route will become more and more deviated.

Seriously, at night, it gives people a special sense of fear.

Zhao Hengyi can be regarded as sailing in the ocean for a while, especially at night, he will beat the drum in his heart, looking at this endless night, looking at nothing ahead.

I just feel very uncomfortable, uncomfortable, and I can't tell where it is uncomfortable, it is the fear of the unknown of the ocean.

Lighting the light, Zhao Hengyi sat on the boat and thought about his two children and his wife.

I don't know when I'll be able to go back, and I'll be able to stay with them safely.

There is a good saying, the eldest man has ambitions in all directions, and he really shouldn't stay at home all the time.

"What's the matter, Master Hou, what are you thinking?"

At this time, Zhang Can walked over and asked suspiciously.

Zhao Hengyi glanced at him and said with a smile.

"I don't think about anything, I can think about anything, I just think about things casually."

"What's that?"

Suddenly, someone on the boat shouted.
