Journalists must be curious babies, and Oiran is curious: "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Cheng pointed to the cargo ship: "This place is far away from Xiaolangdi, and all the merchant ships that operate in this vicinity must show their flags." ”

Oiran: "Why do you have to show the flag when you are far away from the bottom of the small waves?" ”

Jiang Cheng: "The water thieves in Xiaolangdi have been exterminated by our Gaojia villagers, so it is safe near Xiaolangdi and there is no need to show the flag." But in unsafe places, you have to show the thieves a flag and show which merchant ship they are. ”

"Some trading houses are so strong that they dare not provoke the water thieves, and their banner is to tell the water thieves to get away, such as our Colorful Tianzun Banner." Jiang Cheng pointed to the top of the boat, and the Oiran looked up, and sure enough, there was a colorful flag floating on the high pole.

Jiang Cheng said: "As soon as our flag is lit, how far the water thieves roll, they all know that we have the strength to kill the thieves at the bottom of the small waves, so they don't dare to provoke." ”

Oiran suddenly realized.

Jiang Cheng continued: "And some trading houses are weak, so they spent money in advance, dotted the water thieves along the road, and paid protection fees. So they lit up the flag, which means 'Master, I have honored you, my own people, don't rob it'. ”

"I see."

Oiran looked at the empty cargo ship on the water in front of him and whispered, "Then this merchant ship did not show its flag, which is really a bit strange." Could it be that they are water thieves? ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head: "It's not like a water thief, the water thief saw our colorful Tianzun flag, and turned around and fled a few miles away on the water, you see this cargo ship, it actually has no intention of avoiding, and continues to sail forward, and will soon cross by us." ”

Oiran: "Huh? ”

Jiang Cheng turned to the militia soldiers and ordered, "Get ready for battle." ”

There were thirty sailors of the Xiaolangdi militia on board, as well as twenty Oiran special service soldiers, and as soon as they received the order, the thirty Xiaolangdi sailors immediately began to enter combat readiness.

But the soldiers of the twenty special forces are a little blind, and they can't fight in the water. It was very difficult for them to stand on the ship against the shaking of the ship, and it was a bit difficult for them to fight in such a situation.

Li Daoxuan smiled: "Professional matters, leave them to professional people, you just need to protect the girls." ”

The group of agents answered, escorting the Oiran into the cabin.

Just as they were preparing......

The strange ship without a flag is getting closer and closer.

The two sides staggered across the Yellow River, one upstream and the other downstream. This section of the river is not wide, and both cargo ships are sailing in the middle of the river, so the two boats seem to be hedged head to head.

The strange ship without a flag was obviously deliberately heading towards the cargo ship in Gaojia Village.

It's getting closer!

A sailor hurriedly said, "Jiang Jiaoxi, are we going to fire?" ”

Jiang Cheng hesitated slightly...... In this case, if you open fire without asking questions, it is obviously not right. That's what only villains do, and saluting first and then soldiers is the morality of the rivers and lakes.

He quickly opened his throat and shouted at the strange ship and asked, "This is the cargo ship at the bottom of Xiaolangdi, where did you come from?" Don't come any closer, for any closer to us will see you as a provocation......"

The sound on the river was heard far away, and the other side could hear it clearly.

The strange ship immediately began to slow down, slightly off course, it seemed that it was planning to stagger past the ship in Gaojia Village, and a sturdy man came out of the bow, dressed in bronze skin, and said loudly to this side: "We are a merchant ship from upstream, and we are not very familiar with this side, I want to ask you for directions, where is the Gubaidu Wharf?" Did we miss it? ”

Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that he came closer to ask for directions.

He said loudly: "The Gubaidu Wharf is downstream, let's sail here for a while......"

The fierce man clenched his fists: "Thank you, brother, hey, the first time I ran this channel, I was really dizzy." We have heard that there are a lot of good goods from the coastal side of the Gubaidu Wharf, and we are going to get a boat to send them back to Yongji Wharf. ”

Jiang Cheng smiled: "Yongji Wharf from here? You should have the colorful flags ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, a cold arrow suddenly flew out of the cabin behind the sturdy man. The arrow came extremely fast, Jiang Cheng was just a businessman, and he was not a quick man, so he didn't think to hide at all.

Burst!

With a soft sound, the arrow hit Jiang Cheng's chest, and Jiang Cheng rolled backwards and fell.

Oiran was taken aback by this scene and exclaimed, "Jiang Tuanlian! ”

Li Daoxuan also frowned.

The sturdy man on the opposite boat laughed: "It's the boat that lights the colorful flag, brothers, get on, kill the dogs at the bottom of the small waves." ”

In the blink of an eye, the bows and arrows of the opposite ship were fired, and a large number of arrows flew towards this side.

This group of people is really a bit cheap, the distance is just right, and they deliberately buried their heads in the past, bullying the Gaojia villagers and not beating people for no reason, so they got closer, and then took the opportunity of "asking for directions" to talk nonsense, and the two boats got a lot closer.

The distance has reached a stone's throw away, and the range advantage of the Gao family villagers' firearms has been wiped out by their strategy.

Arrows flew in pieces, and the thirty militia sailors on board hurriedly dodged the arrows in various positions.

Many people were hit by arrows, but fortunately, they came out this time to see the old Huihui, and everyone had to prevent the old Huihui from suddenly turning his face, so the armor was hidden in the clothes. The arrows on the opposite side were unloaded by the armor, and the people who were hit by the arrows were not seriously injured.

Jiang Cheng, who had just fallen, put his hands on the board of the boat, brushed the ground and sat up again, and the arrows were still sticking in his chest and shaking. But the armor hidden in his merchant's clothes saved his life, and the tip of the arrow only slightly pierced the armor, creating a small bloody hole in his chest.

The thief hurts, but not to die.

Jiang Cheng was furious: ", fortunately, Lao Tzu is prepared." Hit and hit, fight back. ”

The sailors didn't have to wait for the order to start firing back.

The sound of "bang, bang, bang" firecracker sounded.

The opposite side was obviously prepared, and it was really coming towards Gaojia Village, and even the fire guns were guarded, and thick planks were erected everywhere on the ship, and the surface of the planks was covered with a thin layer of iron sheets, and the enemy soldiers who fired arrows were hiding behind the thick planks.

Gaojia Village's bullets can't penetrate this thing......

"Prepare for the other side." Jiang Cheng was angry: "It's clear that it's coming at us, grenades, throw grenades." ”

The sailors lit grenades and threw them at the opposite boat.

Some of the grenades were bounced off the planks, and a few of them flipped over the planks and fell behind, only to hear the sound of "boom boom" explosions, but not a lot of screams, only a few sparse screams.

Obviously, when the other party saw the grenade being thrown here, they hid in the cabin, or some other thing like hiding a soldier's character.

"They even have a hand in hand for grenades." Jiang Cheng was shocked at this moment: "Do you know us so well? Where's the weird enemy? ”
