But Zhang Liuwang said, "You don't know their methods at this time, otherwise you wouldn't have been banned from the sea for so many years! That is, you have not been out for a long time to run the sea, and you don't know about these things!"

When the sailor was reprimanded, he not only did not get angry, but moved his body and said, "Squad leader, then you can tell everyone about it!"

Zhang Liuwang wanted to show off, but then he changed his mind and said, "Forget it, everyone has been vigilant in the past two days and stared at the sea!" Now our position is the most prone to pirates and officers and soldiers, and if something happens, it's not good for everyone!"

Now their fleet is beneath the Shandong Peninsula. Because the Shandong Peninsula goes straight into the sea, that sharp corner is a place where you can't go around from south to north, so many pirates will haunt here. Officers and soldiers also frequented it occasionally.

The young sailor pleaded, "Captain, it's not too late, just tell me about the things on the sea!"

Zhang Liuwang felt that it didn't matter if he was idle to talk to him now, so he coughed, and was thinking about where to start, when suddenly he was patted on the shoulder!

He looked up and saw Liu Xiaoman pointing to the place in front of him on the right and said loudly, "Look, do you see if there is a boat in there?"

When Zhang Liuwang heard this, he hurriedly stood up and looked at the place where Liu Xiaoman was pointing! Sure enough, I vaguely seemed to see a ship coming, but I couldn't see it clearly! But at this time, he didn't dare to be careless, after all, he was the head of the fleet, and he was responsible for the safety of the entire team!

He immediately ordered, "Xiao Man, go and inform the ships behind to be on alert!" Hammer, go to my barn, there's a red leather box on the shelf for me! Prepare for the others to fight!"

As soon as the order was handed down, the whole ship immediately moved! Someone began to inspect the ropes, and someone went with them to inspect the goods. Someone began to check the fire guns and knives and axes. A sailor beside Zhang Liuwang got up directly, stepped forward and tore open the tarpaulin, revealing a cannon! And Zhang Liuwang climbed directly onto the ship.

Zhang Liuwang stuck his head out of the boat and beckoned him to throw things up. The hammer was hard with one hand, and the box in his hand was easily thrown up. Zhang Liuwang opened the box after catching it, and what was placed inside was actually a monocular!

This thing doesn't have much technical content, and it's simple to produce. So Liu Haojia had already asked the glass workshop to make a batch. The glasses in Zhang Liuwang's hand were given to Zhang Shunping by Liu Haojia.

Zhang Liuwang took out the binoculars, then tucked the box into his waist, and then pulled out the binoculars and leaned on his right eye to look into the distance. The other sailors around him stared nervously at him. A moment in the head of the news will determine whether they fight or turn around and run away?

However, according to the sailors, if their large fleet encounters a small group of pirates, they still have a fight! If the cooperation is good, it may be who robs whom!

After waiting for a while, everyone heard Zhang Liuwang say, "It's the official army! It's the officers and soldiers chasing a boat! We're heading our way!"

Then Liu Xiaoman said loudly below, "Boss, how many ships are there for the official army? Can the ship in front get away? Would you like us to help?" Look at the book

Zhang Liuwang put down the binoculars and scolded loudly: "Liu Xiaoman, you ***! It's not the smuggled goods that used to be, so keep your mind right!"

Liu Xiaoman was scolded by Zhang Liuwang, and he rubbed his head and laughed "hehe" anyway! The other sailors followed suit!

These sailors used to run smuggling, and their minds couldn't turn their minds for a while. Liu Xiaoman's question just now is to have the intention of cooperating. If there are few officers and soldiers, they will work together to repel the officers and soldiers!

In the old days. These people are both thieves and businessmen at any time. If you run into a cruising ship, the smuggling ships that are biased towards pirates will desperately resist! However, the food and salary of the officers and soldiers are not enough, and the combat effectiveness is not high, so the smuggling ships can sometimes even force the officers and soldiers to retreat!

As for the smuggling ships that were biased towards merchant ships, they generally paid some silver, which was considered to buy the road. Anyway, they were sure that those officers and soldiers would not dare to rob them. Because behind these ships running the sea are all high-ranking families, if they make a move, they will definitely be retaliated! So it's better to extort a few dozen taels of silver!

Zhang Liuwang finished scolding people and went directly from the ship's building

jumped down and said to Liu Xiaoman, "Tell the boat behind that the whole fleet will lower its sails and line up a little closer!" In addition, tell them that Lao Tzu will not fire artillery here, and they are not allowed to do it!"

Liu Xiaoman agreed to go to the stern, and Zhang Liuwang walked to the bow of the boat and looked into the distance. The other sailors gathered on the deck to watch the excitement after making all their preparations.

I saw that the chase battle ahead was getting closer and closer to the fleet, and the outlines of several ships were becoming clearer and clearer. Now it can be seen that the three ships of the official army are about to succeed!

The officers and soldiers had two ships to sail on either side of the smuggling ship, restricting its maneuvering. The ship behind is chasing with all its might, and it is getting closer and closer! When they were still five or six miles away from the team, the officers and soldiers seemed to have lost patience and finally opened fire!

Although I couldn't hear the sound of cannons, I knew that the ships on the left and right sides had fired two cannons when they watched the fires flicker one after another! In the distance, you can see the sails of the smuggling ship shaking violently, obviously being shot! The smuggling boat saw that the officers and soldiers had really run away, and the sails were broken, so it could only stop honestly!

Zhang Liuwang knew that the reason why the officers and soldiers opened fire was because they had discovered their own fleet, so they first solved the smuggling ship in front of them. So he gave the order again, "Lower the sails by half and sail at the slowest speed!"

At this time, after the smuggling boat stopped, it was caught by two official warships, and through the binoculars, a large number of soldiers could be seen jumping into gangs and rushing to each other's ships. And another warship of the officers and soldiers turned around and rushed straight towards them!

This ship is full of sails, and it looks like it is menacing, and it is not afraid of the number of ships here! Seeing this, Zhang Liuwang sighed and said, "Xiao Man, go to the cabin and take out the Qinglongya Flag and insert it into the bow of the boat, and then tell the ships behind to do the same!" Now it's up to you to see if it's good or not!"

Soon, the ship rushed closer, and some soldiers shouted, "The ship in front of you will lower its sails and be inspected!"

Zhang Liuwang did not hesitate to order the fleet to lower the sails, gather together as much as possible and wait for the other ship to come over. When the official ship rushed to a place of more than 200 paces, it did not approach, but put down a small boat and rowed over quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the boat leaned under the side of the boat, and Zhang Liuwang ordered someone to throw down the rope. Immediately, an officer and soldier climbed up along the rope. When the soldier got aboard, he glanced at the uncovered tarpaulin cannon and snorted disdainfully before saying, "Which of you is the leader? Come out and speak!"
