Chapter 161: Victory in the First Battle
Right now, as long as Li Tianhe reports this matter, he will definitely die.
Listening to Zhao Qiong's pleading, Li Tianhe's brows were also furrowed.
Although Zhao Qiong is begging him for mercy at the moment, in fact, even if he doesn't beg for mercy, he has to be saved.
There is no other reason, everything that happened in this Qinghe City, the two of them were involved.
Li Tianhe didn't dare to guarantee that if he really reported it truthfully, this Zhao Qiong would not be able to poke this matter up.
When the time comes, that's the real fish dead and the net is broken!
It seems that Zhao Qiong is begging for mercy, but in fact he is just making a show.
Li Tianhe, who has lived in officialdom for a long time, still can't see the pros and cons of things.
To put it bluntly, at the moment they are both grasshoppers on the same rope.
Stretching out his hand to help Zhao Qiong, who was kneeling on the ground, up, Li Tianhe hurriedly spoke.
"It's no wonder that Lord Zhao is to blame for this, and it's also to blame that the people who came were too cunning, not only sneaking up on the sailors in the night, but also dispatching more than 30 warships to attack in a row."
Zhao Qiong, who was still kneeling on the ground, was stunned when he heard this, and then looked grateful to Dade.
"Master Li Mingjian! Master Li, Mingjian! If you want to blame those pirates, they are too cunning! ”
Zhao Qiong also reacted very quickly, and even understood the meaning of Li Tianhe's words.
In fact, at the beginning, Zhao Qiong was really scared of the six gods, and he didn't think about it so much.
However, he did leave evidence that the two were in cahoots.
In particular, every account of squeezing this Qinghe City is remembered clearly.
If he was really in a hurry, he would really poke this matter up.
By that time, he and Li Tianhe would really be dead.
Fortunately, this Li Tianhe was even more cunning than he thought, and before he could react, he had already taken the initiative to find a good reason for him.
The so-called Tiangao Emperor is far away, what happened in the camp of the sailor in Qinghe Prefecture, didn't they have the final say?
As for finding someone to come out and testify?
Do you still go to those pirates to testify?
And who will believe their testimony?
"Lord Zhao, you better return to the sailor camp first and reorganize the power of the sailor! I will definitely report this matter, so that the upper authorities can send more people and supplies at the same time! ”
Li Tianhe looked at Zhao Qiong and said comfortingly.
Hearing this, Zhao Qiong was overjoyed.
Isn't it another wave of oil and water coming in now?
Now it seems that the attack on this sailor's camp is not only a bad thing, but also a good thing.
……
The afternoon sun is particularly scorching, especially on the vast sea.
People who should have been sunburned listless are looking extremely excited at the moment.
As far as the eye can see, a line of thirteen-bow warships on the sea is now moving in unison with the wind.
At the bow of the warship at the head was a man standing.
This person is not afraid of the scorching sun at noon, and his face shows a touch of relief.
And the person on the bow of the boat is none other than Qin He.
Originally, Qin He thought that the effect of this raid would not be too good, but the result was beyond his expectations.
Not only did it have an unexpected effect, but it also turned the sailor's camp upside down.
It also captured the largest warship in the ten bows of the sailor's camp.
And there were a lot of supplies on the warship.
The most valuable shells accounted for most of them.
This is definitely a great thing for Qin He, who is most lacking in armed forces today.
Although they were a surprise attack this time, they were caught off guard by the sailor's camp.
But it won't have such a terrible harvest.
If you want to thank you, you can only thank those people in the sailor camp are a bunch of wine bags and rice bags.
The chickens and dogs that were beaten under the surprise attack jumped without the slightest intention of resisting.
This battle can be described as the first victory!
"Brother Qin! We're making a lot of money this time! ”
There was a sound of footsteps behind him, accompanied by Li Yang's excited voice.
Hearing Li Yang's words, Qin He withdrew his gaze and slowly turned to look at Li Yang behind him.
"Have you counted everything?"
Looking at Li Yang with a smile, Qin He asked.
Hearing this, the joy on Li Yang's face became even stronger, and he nodded again and again.
"Brother Qin, it's all counted!"
"Ten warships were captured, 1,200 rounds of artillery ammunition, 10,000 catties of rice and flour, and a number of meat!"
I don't know if Li Yang's face was red because of the strong sun at noon, or because of the excitement of this harvest.
But no matter what the reason is, this harvest, even Qin He couldn't help but be shocked when he heard it.
1,200 artillery shells, which is definitely a big gain for Qinhe, who is now short of firepower.
Not only that, but they were also provided with ten warships.
They are already short of warships, and they can be regarded as a charcoal in the snow.
Of course, this is not voluntary.
In addition, rice noodles are the foundation of life.
Although 10,000 catties of rice and noodles are not much, they are enough for several days of life.
Don't look at it and it sounds scary, but don't forget how many people there are on Dongqin Island now.
That's a small 4,000 people, and when it is flat, it is two catties of rice noodles per person a day, which is indeed only enough for a few days.
This is also the reason why Qin He is not indifferent to rice noodles, but is more excited about ammunition.
"Those wine bags and rice bags can only bully and bully the common people on weekdays, and they are no better than turtle grandsons when they really fight!"
Li Yang laughed and said.
After that, Li Yang seemed to feel something, and with a smiling face, he continued.
"Brother Qin, I think we might as well come here every once in a while! It also saves us from paying a high price to buy supplies from the Japanese Bandits! ”
Hearing Li Yang's words, Qin He smiled.
"How can there be such a good thing! Do you think they would be stupid enough to put all the supplies in the camp? ”
"And don't be carried away by the joy, although the victory at the moment seems easy, in fact, even if they resist a little, we can't be so easy."
Qin He slowly restrained his smile and spoke.
When Li Yang heard this, he was also a lot more sober.
Indeed, as Qin He said, if the water master resisted one or two, they really couldn't have such a harvest.
It is estimated that at most, it will be to mess up the sailor camp for a while.
"Brother Qin is very right! But I was greedy for merit! ”
Li Yang is also a person who can listen to words, even if he realizes his own problems.
"Regardless of this matter, your words have made me think of another way!"
Hearing Qin He's words, Li Yang's expression, which was still a little lost, suddenly lit up.
"Brother Qin, but you have thought of a way to deal with it?"
Hearing this, Qin He smiled.
"There's no way to deal with it, it's just that I have thought of other ways to get supplies."
"Remember when we were always escorting the sea trade routes?"
Hearing this, Li Yang nodded.
"Before, we had some scruples about singing double reeds, but now we ...... We've become pirates, so why scruple? ”
Li Yang obviously heard the meaning of Qin He's words, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
