Chapter 293: Pirates

After these uninvited guests from the sea approached, everyone saw clearly that they were divided into four small boats, a total of about thirty people, each with weapons, looking at their outfits, except for a few of them who looked like local pirates, most of them were dressed as Dongying people, and they used Dongying weapons. They chose this time to carry out a sneak attack on the village, presumably because the fishermen who calculated this time had already fallen asleep, it was indeed the best time for a sneak attack, Lin Chunxi judged that with their force, I am afraid that even if it is a strong attack, the villagers of this fishing village will not be able to resist head-on, but fortunately, today's incident was bumped into by Lin Chunxi and others.

After these people had completely landed on the shore, Lin Chunxi signaled everyone to hide their figures, not to expose themselves too early, and only wait for them to get closer to the village before launching a counterattack. This team of pirates and Dongying people was less than a dozen zhang away from the fishing village, these people saw that there had been no movement in the village, and thought that the sneak attack was half successful, and under the leadership of the Dongying people who led the team, they all raised their weapons and accelerated the speed of the attack.

Lin Chunxi saw that the time was ripe, and made a look at Tao Ye beside him, Tao Ye understood, pulled out a few flying knives from his arms, shook them hard, and rushed to the front of several Dongying pirates instantly hit the flying knives and fell to the ground, these people are also perennial to do this kind of knife for a living, as soon as they saw a few people hit the flying knives, they knew that there were masters in the village in ambush, the Dongying pirates who led the team hurriedly whistled, and the rest of the people hurriedly retreated in the direction of the beach.

Lin Chunxi and the others led the villagers to rush out of the bunkers, and followed behind the pirates for a while, the pirates did not expect the other party to ambush so close to themselves, and hurriedly threw away their armor and ran to the shore to flee for their lives. Lin Chunxi and the others rushed to the front, where were these pirates the opponents of the masters of the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land, they were quickly caught up, and within a few shots, all of these pirates who fell behind had been captured alive.

However, those Dongying people seem to be very brave, they found that they were cornered, each with a fierce look, no longer choosing to escape, forming a formation, ready to fight with everyone, Lin Chunxi and others can see clearly, look at the reaction behind these people and in the face of danger, it is definitely not an ordinary person, it is very likely that it is the Dongying Liukou that Ishihara Yue once said to himself, these people are all samurai and nobles, and they are all masters in the army before the defeat of the group they belong to, and now these people know that they have no way to retreat, presumably they are going to fight to the death, in order not to let the villagers suffer unnecessary losses, Lin Chunxi hurriedly beckoned everyone to retreat。

However, there are several young fishermen who saw that these rogues had been forced to the beach, due to the lack of combat experience, they raised the harpoons in their hands and began to attack these Dongying people, Lin Chunxi just wanted to stop it, but it was too late, several fishermen who rushed to the front were violently counterattacked by the Dongying Liukou, in the first round of the fight, there were two fishermen's Dongying people who knocked down the weapons in their hands, and when they were stunned, they were pierced through the body by the Dongying people's war knives, these Dongying people were extremely ruthless, a shot was full of killing moves, knives and knives were all rushing to the point, and the remaining few people quickly turned around and fled to the team, but the last two were captured by the Dongying people and were immediately taken hostage.

The fishermen did not dare to come forward, Dongying Liukou looked brave, shouted to everyone, Lin Chunxi signaled everyone to calm down, the two parties could not communicate in a hurry due to the language barrier, but Lin Chunxi saw clearly, Dongying people were signaling them to put down the weapons in their hands, when the two sides were holding each other, several villagers wanted to go to the rescue, which angered these Dongying Liukou, and the person who led the team cruelly inserted the dagger in his hand into the throat of the hostage.

As soon as they saw the Dongying people start killing, Lin Chunxi and the others couldn't hold it anymore, and rushed up with their blades in their hands, and the two sides suddenly fought together, these Dongying rogues still have a great advantage when dealing with ordinary people, but there is no advantage to take advantage of in the face of the masters of the blessed land, after a few rounds, the Dongying pirates have fallen a large piece, although they are still stubbornly resisting, but they have lost their combat effectiveness, and they were quickly caught by the fishermen, and it didn't take long for them to escape, except for a few pirates who drove the boat to escape, most of the Dongying pirates were captured alive in addition to being killed。

After a night of fighting, with the assistance of Lin Chunxi and others, the fishermen won a great victory, and soon someone reported to the government, and with the assistance of the officers and soldiers, the pirates were all wiped out.

Lin Chunxi and others also saw for the first time the harassment of the coastal fishermen by the Dongying Liukou, and they all felt that there must be local pirates colluding with those Dongying people, and the problem must be solved by eliminating the local pirates. They learned from the local population that some wealthy merchants along the coast secretly colluded with the pirates at sea, because these people's fleets were trading at sea all the year round, and if there was no permission from the pirates, their fleets would be held hostage, and if they hired bodyguards from the dart bureau, the phone fee was too large, so these merchants who did maritime trading chose to give the pirates a certain amount of money in exchange for the pirates not to attack their caravans, and at the same time, when these merchants needed to do some smuggling transactions, they also needed the assistance of the pirates。 Therefore, even if the local government has already suspected them, there is no way to track them down, and these are all big businessmen, and they have a lot to do with the laughing officials in the DPRK and the central government, it is difficult to catch them all, as long as they don't go too far, the government will turn a blind eye, but over time, it will also condone their arrogance in disguise.

However, this time the situation was different, the pirates actually began to collude with the Dongying Liukou, the nature of the incident has changed, and Lao Li also brought news, saying that the eighth prince Li Xiaoyao wanted to thoroughly investigate the collusion of coastal officials and businessmen with pirates, Lin Chunxi and everyone discussed it, and decided to start with the local merchants, and strive to find the location where the pirates were entrenched, and then they could be attacked.

Soon, with the assistance of the Eighth Prince, the government got hold of a secret report, saying that the local salt merchants regularly contacted the pirates to provide them with money, and had already mastered their handover time, and one of the merchants had been detained by the government.
