Bang la blah.

The British, who reacted, drew their weapons and pointed their flintlock pistols or sabers at Li Zhaoji.

"Aunt thief, aunt thief ......." Li Zhaoji had expected this to be the case, so he was not afraid, and besides, he himself was extremely bold and relied on his hands, so he was naturally even more fearless.

"Get out, yellow-skinned monkey, I can spare your dog's life." Johnson roared.

Li Zhaoji smiled and said in English: "Okay, I can come out, but be careful with your muskets, don't go off." ”

The British were now all puzzled, and a thief who happened to appear on the ship could speak English, and was so bold that everyone present was a little overwhelmed.

Bang!

A small powder keg was thrown out by Li Zhaoji and rolled on the floor, such a dangerous thing made everyone dodge for a while, and they were in a hurry, as if they were dancing gods.

Li Zhaoji's body came out of the narrow door, and the narrow powder magazine scraped his buttocks. The door of this powder magazine is the smallest hatch on the ship, and there is a wooden ladder, which is extremely inconvenient for adult men to enter and exit, so in the era of sails, the gunpowder is transported by thin children, and when there is a war, these children enter and exit the powder magazine, and transport the gunpowder to the various gun positions, so they are called powder monkeys.

As soon as Lee Siu Ki climbed out, there was chaos in the captain's room, and Johnson took a few steps back, holding a flintlock pistol in one hand and a knife in front of his chest in the other, extremely guarded. Aaron plunged his head directly into the closet, exposing half of his buttocks, and the rest of the people ran out in unison, but they were stopped by the narrow door frame, and there was a fight, and no one ran out.

Obviously, Li Zhaoji didn't have the air of a tyrant, but as soon as he appeared, it was enough to make people fearful, because he had a string of six-pounder cannon launchers and medicine packs tied to his body, and a fire rope wrapped around his left wrist had been lit, emitting a strange smell.

"You, the yellow hair, bring my 'seat'." Li Zhaoji stood there, holding his head high, giving orders.

Aaron, who was disregarded, trembled, was kicked in the ass by Li Zhaoji, let out a miserable howl, and carefully moved the powder keg thrown at the beginning behind Li Zhaoji, Li Zhaoji sat on the powder keg and made a cheerful and relaxed speech to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have bad news for you, this Dongfang has been hijacked by me and my brother, from now on, you are my prisoners, and this ship must completely obey my orders."

Now, my first command is, get down on your knees, all! ”

All the Englishmen were stunned, they looked at each other, all with fear on their faces, but they did not dare to kneel, and finally all eyes were on the captain of the ship, Johnson.

"Yellow-skinned monkey, I am from England, God's blessed people, how can I kneel down to you." Johnson, as the captain of the ship, has extraordinary bravery and naturally will not give in easily.

Lee said, "Then, Captain Johnson, are you, God's blessed people, willing to die with me, a pagan worshipped by our ancestors?" ”

While asking, Li Zhaoji leaned the gunpowder bag on his body with the fire rope wrapped around his left hand.

"No, don't, we can kneel and take your captive." Aaron was the first to get scared and fell directly to his knees.

One man took the lead, and the rest knelt down, but Johnson stood there, not only did not kneel, but took two steps forward to show his determination, Johnson said in a deep voice: "Yellow monkey, do you dare to light gunpowder?" ”

"I dare!" Li Zhaoji said without hesitation.

He also stood up, pulled out a kneaded fuse cord from his body, inserted it from the powder keg, and lit it directly with the fire rope.

Hiss .......

The fuse burned violently, burning towards the powder keg little by little, and the smoke from the burning made the small captain's cabin even more eerie.

Li Zhaoji stood there, watching quietly, Johnson's eyes widened, his throat kept churning up and down, he spoke dryly, but his voice trembled a little: "Wang Defa! You...... You really don't want to die. ”

Lee did not speak, and Johnson responded with his head held high.

"Hou Lixie! You madman ......... In the end, Johnson couldn't bear it, he suddenly yelled, threw the knife and gun in his hand, pounced, tried to pull out the fuse, but could not catch it, he cursed, picked up the powder keg in both hands, ran quickly to the porthole, and threw it down with all his might.

Johnson had words in his mouth, hoping that the powder keg would not explode, otherwise dozens of catties of gunpowder would explode, and it would definitely blow up a big hole under the waterline. The European ship did not have any compartments, the ribs were blown up, and it was almost a dead end.

After a long while, there was no explosion, and Johnson suddenly realized that it must not be gunpowder, otherwise the yellow-skinned monkey would not have dared to be so arrogant.

"Lowly yellow-skinned monkey, you dare to play .........." Johnson turned his head and was about to settle accounts with Li Zhaoji, but suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and looked down, and the bright blade poked out of his chest, dripping with blood.

A head was placed on Johnson's shoulder, and he said in his ear: "It will be the courage of the army, with you, they will not surrender easily, you can only die." ”

As he spoke, Li Zhaoji clenched the knife in his hand and spun wildly, expanding the wound.

Johnson never expected that he would be so easily fooled, but regret was useless, life was passing quickly from the wound, his body went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Li Zhaoji pulled out the knife, looked at the blood on it, and it fell to the floor ticking, and countless thoughts came to his mind for a while.

This is the first time he has killed someone, and it is also the first time he has seen the person who has been killed, there is excitement, there is hesitation, there is excitement, there is madness, but the only thing that is not is fear.

The feeling of killing is real, and the feeling of killing is fearless.

"It seems that my hands are suitable for this." Li Zhaoji clenched the knife and said lightly.

With a thud, Johnson's knife slammed into the deck, and it took the life of its original owner, and was in the hands of another man who was equally brave but more determined. Li Zhaoji grabbed the knife with both hands, stood on the knife, faced Aaron and the others, and said lightly: "Hand over your weapons." ”

This time, no one resisted, everyone took out their weapons and respectfully placed them at Li Zhaoji's feet.

"Come out, all of you, this ship is ours." Li Zhaoji shouted at the powder magazine.

Chen Liuzi, Gao Jia, and Liu Mingde's uncles and nephews came out one after another, and when they saw the dead Captain Johnson and the once high-ranking Brit kneeling on the ground, the eyes of several people looking at Li Zhaoji changed, some were afraid, and some worshipped.

Several people, like Li Zhaoji, were all bundled with gunpowder, holding lit fire ropes, each of which was a humanoid explosive bag.

"Tie them all up." Li Zhaoji commanded.

Several people stepped forward, tore the sheets into strips of cloth, and tied them up despite the begs of Aaron and others. When they were busy, Li Zhaoji gave Chen Liuzi a look, winked at Gao Jia, Chen Liuzi smiled and understood, took the opportunity of taking the cloth strip, picked up a piece of wood casually, and directly hit the back of Gao Jia's head, and then stepped forward and extinguished the fire rope on his arm.

When Gao Jia woke up, the gunpowder on his body had been unloaded, and the arquebus was gone. Gao Jia looked around, and everyone stared at him viciously.

"Li Zhaoji, you can swear that if I help you, you won't kill me." Goja roared hysterically.

Li Zhaoji clasped his hands to his chest and looked at him with interest: "I only said that I wouldn't let them kill you, but I didn't say that I wouldn't kill you." ”

Gao Jia gritted his teeth: "You said, if you don't save my life, you will be thundered five times in the sky, Li Zhaoji, aren't you afraid that God will punish you?" ”

"Don't be afraid, if God uses thunder to slash me, then it should be for me to refine my body." Li Zhaoji said lightly, he is an atheist materialist, where does he care about these gods and ghosts.

"Put them all in the upper warehouse." Li Zhaoji grabbed the rag on the table and stuffed it into Gao Jia's mouth, he personally locked the hatch of the powder magazine, and when he walked out alone, he saw a beautiful cowhide tricorne on the hanger, which was worn on his head.

As Chen Liuzi escorted the high-ranking officers of the Vostok in front of the sailors, the entire Vostok was in chaos, and some sailors from Europe still wanted to resist, but as Chen Liuzi showed the captain's body, the resistance immediately disappeared.

By the time Li Zhaoji came to the warehouse, it had already been divided into two groups.

The cargo hold was the largest space on the Vostok and was located in the front middle of the hull, where eight six-pounder guns and space were placed to store cargo, while also serving as a resting place for sailors.

The sailors from Europe took control of the four six-pounder guns in the front, and there were only twenty of them in all, and they were gathered together, shivering, clutching their belongings, clothes, shoes, a small amount of possessions, and rum that seemed like life.

Johnson's body was right in front of them, and Aaron and the others were kneeling side by side.

When the Chinese sailors found out that the Dongfang was controlled by Li Zhaoji and others, they all joined and stood on the other side, armed with sailors' axes, saws, shovels, gunpowder pushers, etc., and confronted these people.

Li Zhaoji looked around and said to the Chinese sailors in Chinese: "I know that since you boarded the ship in Pattani, you have been humiliated and tortured by the British on board. I am the worst of you, and I feel the same way, but you should know that it is not these British sailors who are also suffering and abusing you, but Captain Johnson, the dog-legged Gauja, and a few boatswain .......

So, these ragged Britons in front of us are not our enemies........ ”

Li Zhaoji's blood-stained knife tapped the neck of the kneeling man one by one, and he continued: "...... These are the people. Therefore, lay down your weapons, and I will redress your grievances, and I will avenge your grievances. ”

The Chinese sailors looked at each other, as if they could not make up their minds.

At this time, Chen Liuzi took the lead in throwing the musket in his hand, knelt down directly at Li Zhaoji, and shouted: "Brothers, this Li Zhaoji and Li brothers are the life-saving benefactors of all of us, and the grace of life is greater than heaven, but if you have some conscience, you should feel his grace and serve it."

From now on, he will not only be our benefactor, but also our leader. ”

"Boss!"

Everyone knelt down in unison, and Li Zhaoji nodded slightly, enjoying the sweetness brought by power. He laughed softly, swung his knife directly, and slashed at Gao Jia's head!
