Chapter 1043 - Harboring Evil Intentions
The crew of this ship are all counting the money in the United States, which is the same as the promise made when the captain left, after having this money, you can go back to your hometown to buy some land, and then live a good life, although you can't guarantee that you are rich, but at least you don't have to go to sea to fight hard, they still remember the horrors that came along the way.
After the captain divided all the money in his hand, he had to give a part of it to the local government, if he didn't give it, then he wouldn't let you bulk the goods here, but even so, this is a business without capital, as long as you can pull the materials back, are you still worried about making money?
"Watanabe-sama, you see the number, right?"
The captain said happily, and after the lord nodded, he could sell the ship directly, and then go to the small landlord's business with the money.
"The number is fine, but you must not bring the disaster back, in case the Tang Dynasty investigates this matter, then we can't eat and walk around, do you know why we have more and more Silla people here? It's because their country is gone. ”
The local officials were very happy when they received the money, but their hearts were also hanging, in case Datang wanted to deal with this matter, then they would be unlucky.
According to what he knew, among the latest batch of envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty court was already inquiring about this matter, and they only blamed this robbery on the coastal people, calling them pirates, and saying that the Fusang government would hold these people accountable.
To put it bluntly, they treat the Tang Dynasty as fools, and they also know what the rulers of the Tang Dynasty are willing to listen to, as long as they show their loyalty and then wash themselves clean, then this matter has nothing to do with them, not to mention that the central government of the Tang Dynasty may not care about the lives of the coastal people.
"Your Excellency, rest assured, the Silla Kingdom destroyed the country because they were looking for trouble by themselves, and they did not obey the Tang Dynasty, plus they bordered on land, the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty could go directly from Chang'an to the Silla Kingdom, and there was no way for them to lose the country, but we have a natural barrier like the sea, and the Tang Dynasty has nothing to do with us."
The pirate captain said nonchalantly, in his opinion, if they go to Datang, it will be nine deaths, and more than a dozen ships will come back to them one boat, even if the sailors of Datang are stronger than them, can they still find them?
"You're right, the Central Plains Dynasty, which was extremely powerful in the past, couldn't reach our Fusang, and we have the protection of Amaterasu here......"
Thinking about the natural barrier on the sea, Watanabe-sama felt very satisfied, but before he finished his words, this guy rubbed his eyes vigorously, as if he saw some shadows on the sea to the west.
Today's sea is a little cloudy, if it was a clear sky, it is estimated that he would have been able to see it a long time ago, but at this moment, even if it is cloudy, he can see a ship in the distance.
"Are you sure you're the only ones back?"
When Lord Watanabe said this, the captain next to him raised his heart to his throat, in fact, there were two ships that could come back, and they were quickly discovered when they robbed Datang, and they only grabbed half of the ship's supplies, but it was black in the middle, so they pulled back a boatload of supplies.
Is this old fellow a prophet? However, the captain of the pirate ship soon lost this idea, and he followed Watanabe-sama's finger to see that there was not a single ship in the distance, it was obviously a large number of ships, and compared to these ships, their pirate ship was like a flat boat.
The people on the seaside were also alarmed, although they were a harbor city here, but the largest ship was the same as the pirate ship, about twenty meters long, but in the distance these ships were more than twice as long, and dense, this was obviously a fleet.
Fusang is a maritime country, so their shipping industry is much more developed than Datang, but when they saw the fleet in front of them, everyone was stupid, even when they dreamed, they couldn't believe that they had such a powerful fleet.
"Datang's fleet ......"
As the fleet got closer and closer, someone could already see it very clearly, and the big flag on the bow of the ship was a big Tang character.
It's over......
Lord Watanabe's heart is about to explode, he has long said that Datang is extremely powerful, you bastards don't go over to rob casually, but you people just don't listen, it's okay now, Datang's big ship is slowly approaching, and you are the enemy who brought destruction to Fusang after all.
"How is this possible?"
The pirate captain said with some confusion, you must know that from here to the coast of Datang, it is very far away, there is no feasible route at all, they are also crossing the river by feeling the stones at sea, I don't know how many people have died, so there is such a route.
The fleet of the Tang Dynasty has never come to Fusang, even if someone comes, it is also on the ship that sent the Tang envoys, and their people in Fusang are not stupid, although they admire the culture of the Tang Dynasty, but they also know how to protect themselves, so they never reveal the specific location of Fusang.
In their opinion, it is simply impossible for the ships of the Tang Dynasty to arrive in Fusang, but is this fleet in front of them fake? Many people can clearly see that each ship is much bigger than theirs, but these ships have a lot of openings, and what are the round black holes inside?
"Don't panic, don't mess ......"
Watanabe-sama is the magistrate here, originally his life was very poor, but after having these pirates, he was able to divide the money once in two or three months, so his life was a little better, but now it is finally retribution, seeing that many people around him have been trampled and injured, he wants to organize the order here, but unfortunately it is not possible at all.
Everyone knows what day it is, this ship came back from the robbery of supplies from Datang, they were trying to see what they wanted, but they didn't expect that the ships of Datang would chase after them, and there were hundreds, not to mention their one place, even if the entire Fusang ships were combined, I am afraid that it would not be as many as the fleet of others.
"Arrest them all, no one can let them go, and go to all the pirates' houses, arrest them all for me, and let one go, and I'll try to ask you."
Watanabe-sama immediately figured it out and captured these people to live by himself......
