Most of the pirates surrendered, and some fled in all directions, Xiao Ming had already taken people to start capturing prisoners, but this was not the main task, and finally through coordination, the personnel of the Great Song Water Division were sent down, and after going ashore, they took over the task of taking care of the prisoners, and Xiao Ming took people to copy the pirates' lair.

At this time, I suddenly heard the sudden sound of cannons at sea, and I thought that some pirates were fleeing for their lives in small boats, and they were fired at by artillery. Xiao Ming didn't care about this, and led people to press a small leader of a pirate and went straight to the pirate's lair, this kind of loot loot The tiger guards are familiar with it, and they all know that Xiao Ming likes to do this thing the most.

Contrary to Xiao Ming's estimate, the pirate's stronghold was not in the cave, but a few small buildings were built in the depths of the island, it seems that they will still enjoy it, ordinary pirates live in blue brick and black tile houses, Xiao Ming led people to sweep away this place.

The pirates did loot a lot of goodies, and like all pirates, they had a special preference for gold and silver! The most hidden in the cellar is gold and silver, gold alone is not less than tens of thousands of taels, in addition to silver, but also a large amount of money, iron money and copper money, in addition to the money of the Great Song Dynasty, Liao, Goryeo iron money are a lot, there are several large boxes!

Other finances include silk and silk, as well as a large amount of salt and tea! In addition, there is a large amount of grain in the pirate's granary, it seems that Xiao Ming's estimate is good, if it is just to destroy the pirate's ship, they can rely on the grain on the island for several months, and then send people out to buy a ship with a large amount of gold and silver, and they can recover again.

These trophies are honestly and unceremoniously Xiao Ming is in the pocket, not only that, but they also have dozens of young women in tattered clothes from the lair, these women were all captured by pirates, you can know what they are doing with these women at a glance, these pirates seem to have done a lot of hurtful things!

Among the captive women, there were Song, Goryeo, Liao, and even Fuso! Basically, they are the families of fishermen and merchants, all of them are like vegetables, and after being rescued, they are crying and crying with joy and sorrow, Xiao Ming saw that these women were also brought back to Zhang Zhongxiong and others.

When leaving, Xiao Ming burned the pirate's lair with a fire, completely cut off the pirate's back road, and then carried the loot to press the woman, and returned to the beach, a lot of people had gathered on the beach, and there were about more than 1,000 people in the Great Song Dynasty brought by Uncle Zhang, in addition to the sailors, half of the sailors were Bu Yong, half of the water Yong, and now the one who went ashore was half of the Bu Yong.

Xiao Ming's merchant ship, the tiger guards also came a thousand, except for Qian Baguang on the ship to serve the cannons, basically all went ashore, Xiao Ming organized them into several teams, continued to search for the remaining pirates, and was busy until the afternoon, at this time the weather turned clear, the sunset through the thick clouds cast a thousand rays of light on this small island, everyone was relieved!

There were about five or six hundred pirate captives, and there were a few small leaders, but there were no big leaders, and I asked those small leaders to learn that several big leaders of the pirates were divided into several small boats and escaped from the island early, Xiao Ming asked, and learned that there were only three big leaders of the pirates, and the remaining six people were all small leaders, plus some relatives who escaped a total of thirty-six people!

According to the bandits, this island is called "Feixia Island", and after the pirates occupied it, they killed all the aborigines, and they have been operating it as a nest, and this time it is all over! It would take a lot of time to press all these captives onto the ship, so Xiao Ming and Zhang Shuye discussed and decided to stay on the island for one night, and then board the ship again tomorrow morning, and set up a bonfire on the beach that night.

After the weather cleared, the sea was deep and quiet, dotted with starlight in the sky, everyone was in a better mood, talking and laughing around the bonfire, this time the bandits were completed, killing four or five hundred pirates, and capturing five or six hundred! These people will be used as coolies to devote themselves to the construction of the Weihai base, and there will be a lot of loot captured!

Xiao Ming gave at least half of the loot to Uncle Zhang, and Uncle Zhang didn't shirk it, anyway, he would hand over these things to the warehouse, Xiao Ming took out a few jars of good wine from the loot, and invited Uncle Zhang and his son to drink together, Uncle Zhang was also very happy, so he couldn't help but drink a few more sips, and couldn't help but open his mouth and chant a poem:

The east is adjacent to the Jieshi to view the sea.

The water is surging, and the mountains and islands are sturging.

The trees are overgrown and the grass is abundant.

The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are surging.

The journey of the sun and the moon, if out of it;

The stars are splendid, if out of it.

Fortunately, even ya, the song is a song.

Xiao Ming knew that this poem was Cao Cao's "Watching the Sea", and Uncle Zhang's recitation of this poem at this time was also a response to the current scene, Xiao Ming asked: "Master Zhang should have Cao Mengde's ambition to unify the world in his chest, right?" ”

Uncle Zhang said: "No! This poem was given to you by me Zhang Jizhong."

Xiao Ming was surprised, so he asked, "What does Master Zhang mean by this?" ”

Uncle Zhang said: "Let's tell the truth, Lord Xiao has a furrow in his chest and it is very far-reaching, the old man is ashamed of himself, when you were in Liao, the old man has already seen that you are not a thing in the pool, and your future actions are limitless, at that time, the old man thought, you are a Han!" Otherwise, it must be the number one enemy of my Great Song Dynasty! ”

Xiao Ming smiled: "Is Lord Zhang exaggerating?" ”

Uncle Zhang said: "My Han people have had a wide range of lands from all over the world since the Han and Tang Dynasties, but now they only have this corner of the Central Plains, which is really unfair!" Since he was young, the old man had been determined to restore the majesty of my Han people and the Han and Tang Dynasties, but for so many years, it has been just a wish! ”

He took a sip of wine and continued: "Today's prince is mediocre, the court traitors are in charge, there are tigers and wolves outside, there are cysts inside, the Great Song Dynasty is only a temporary prosperity, Lord Xiao, you are not a genius, I hope you can take on the responsibility of recovering the land of my Han people and Han and Tang Dynasties!" ”

Xiao Ming said: "I am not an ambitious person, but I have a wish, that is, to earn all the wealth and gold within the four seas, it has always been about the prosperity of the country, but how many of those rich people are the people?" If the people of a country are poor but the country is rich and strong, then I think Goryeo is a good example! The princes, ministers, and the court magnates are all very rich, and they think that they are very rich and powerful, but the people of their country do not have enough to eat and do not wear warm clothes, what is the use of such wealth and strength? ”

Xiao Ming stood up as he spoke, and said: "Taizu Zhao Kuangyin once thought that hiding wealth from the people could make the people rich and the country strong, but he ignored a lot of external things, and the greed of officials, I Xiao Ming felt that it was impossible to make the country prosperous and rise without changing the system, and interests are the lubricant to promote system change, and everything I do is just making lubricant!" ”

Uncle Zhang chewed what Xiao Ming said at night, he didn't say anything for a while, he was able to understand the meaning of the words of the system, but he was not able to break through the long-term thinking, and after half a sound, he asked, "What is Lord Xiao going to do next?" ”

Xiao Ming said: "First help the Great Song Dynasty seize the land of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!" ”

Then Xiao Ming threw away the wine jar and sang loudly, the lyrics were refreshing! He was just on a whim, and he never thought that the lyrics would bring much shock to Uncle Zhang!

The wolf smoke rises and the country looks north

The dragon curled the horse, and the sword qi was like frost

The heart is like the Yellow River

Who can fight in 20 years

Hatred is mad and the knife is headed

How many siblings are buried in their bones

What a pity to die to repay the family and country

I sighed and was even more speechless, full of blood and tears

The horseshoe goes south and people look north

People look north at the grass and yellow dust

I am willing to defend the territory and reopen the territory

Dignified China wants to give way to the Quartet

Come and congratulate!

……

The next day, the merchant ship continued to sail, but did not go far, but found that there were some broken pieces of wood and planks floating on the sea, and even people were lying on their stomachs.

"Song Jiang! You're finally caught! ”

That person was the pirate leader Song Jiang, at this time Song Jiang no longer had that kind of spirit and capable look, and he was silent on the ground, Zhang Shuye saw him snort angrily and walked away, Xiao Ming knew that Song Jiang's fate would not be much better!

When the ship was not long, a few people were rescued at sea, and at the last look, one of the three pirate leaders did not run away, and then a few people followed, these people have basically been soaked in the sea all night, and the pirates who thought they could escape by sitting in a small boat were all knocked into the water by Qian Baguang and used cannons!

Xiao Ming shook his head and said, "It seems that the will of heaven is like this, you still can't escape the arrangement of fate after all."

In history, Song Jiang and his thirty-six pirates were all captured by Zhang Shuye in the end, so that Song Jiang, who had been in the crossroads for many years, did not escape the fate of annihilation in the end! But is Xiao Ming's appearance the fate in the dark? Even a person like Xiao Ming, who is proficient in logic, can't figure this out!

Xiao Ming and his entourage docked in Weihai, Huwei completed the task of rotation training this time, to return to Hangzhou by boat, the next batch of Huwei to rotate training will wait until the spring of the next year, the weather is getting colder, Xiao Ming also wants to go home, but the news from Tokyo has made Xiao Ming have to dispel the idea of going home.

Dajin Kingdom was very angry about Xiao Ming's war against Goryeo, which was really a thief shouting to catch a thief! The subject country of Dongdan is Xiao Ming's decision, of course, he can't be presumptuous by the Jin country, but Xiao Ming doesn't want to make trouble with the Jin country now, which has something to do with the occurrence of another thing.

When Xiao Ming launched the Goryeo War, the city of Nanjing, located in Yanzhou Mansion, was also experiencing bloody rain! Yelu Chunxian's wife Xiao is not only authoritarian, but also listens to rumors and constantly excludes the Han people! Thinking that a hero like Li Chuwen was forced by him to have no choice, he finally secretly submitted a letter to Tong Guan asking for surrender, preparing to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty.

Li Chuwen is really unreliable in doing things, and the messenger sent out directly sent his letter to the hands of Empress Xiao, which brought him a catastrophe, Empress Xiao immediately reacted to this, and dealt with Li Chuwen vigorously, not only killing his whole family, but also searching for his henchmen everywhere and executing them together! At this time, in the remnants of the Liao Kingdom in Nanjing, all the Han people were trembling, lest they would cause trouble, but this disaster was inevitable and still came!

Due to the killing of Li Chuwen, it is no longer possible for Empress Xiao to trust the Han people, which includes Guo Yaoshi, the current general of the Liao army, and others, and on both sides, Empress Xiao actually wanted Xiao Ming in Liaodong to extend an olive branch and asked to help her in the face of the same Khitan Liao relics, which is also a decision that Xiao Gan cannot make, so Xiao Ming must go back
