Zeng Han gave the order to the sailors on the deck: bring people up. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

By the time the people on the yacht were brought to Zeng Hanzhi, the fleet of the Giant Whale Gang was already preparing to bypass a vast island-shaped reef standing in the middle of the sea and prepare to head to Mingyue Bay.

There were three people who claimed to be messengers of Choi Sung-so, and after the three of them went to the deck of the big ship, they showed Zeng Hanzhi a jade plaque, which was engraved with the head of a snake-headed kraken.

Zeng Hanzhi recognized this jade plaque, which was the contact token that Cui Chengxiu used to hurriedly warn, but in order to verify the authenticity, he still cut his finger and stained the blood on the ruby eyes of the kraken!

After the kraken's eyes met with blood, they gave birth to a mutation, the original red eyes, giving birth to seven-colored colors, and the blood streaks penetrated the entire jade plate.

After checking that the token was genuine, Zeng Hanzhi asked the person at the head: "What is the matter with your sect master, who wants to send you over to deliver urgent news?"

Cui Chengxiu's organization is called "Shanhaizong", although outsiders rarely know this name, but Zeng Hanzhi has dealt with him for many years, so he naturally knows it, and he is used to calling him the suzerain.

The man said: "The sect master said that it is uncertain to go to Mingyue Bay, and it is very likely that there will be an official and military layout to lead the ship merchants into the trap." Please don't enter Bright Moon Bay again. ”

"What do you mean? You have already changed the place of the transaction, and now you say that there are officials and soldiers in the Moon Bay in ambush, does your sect master think that this big ship can be driven at will and turn around at will?" Zeng Han said angrily.

The man at the head bowed down and said: "Our sect master said, the officials and troops are strangely quiet during this time, since they have been in the air on Gaoshan Island, the officers and soldiers have continued to search over there, and the other places are almost completely empty, which is somewhat unreasonable, although there is no clear evidence that there must be an ambush in Mingyue Bay, but be careful, or choose another trading location." ”

"Fart, it's almost to Mingyue Bay, your sect master sent you over to make a big fuss, choose another trading location, where to choose? Is it to the sky?" Zeng Hanzhi roared angrily.

The three people who came to report the news saw that Zeng Hanzhi was angry, looked at each other, and said solemnly for the leader of the man: "Zeng Gang Master, we are also just a summons, two hundred nautical miles from Mingyue Bay to the east in the direction of Goryeo, there is an island called Yeli Island, and it will be selected as a trading point to ensure safety." ”

"Do you want us to turn around and head in the direction of Goryeo?" Zeng Han said with an eyebrow. "Your sect master really has a good idea! But you go back and tell him that our giant whale gang will not be led by the nose casually, I am going to Mingyue Bay this time, as for any losses, we will settle accounts with your sect master in the future, who let him make a mess in this Bohai Bay!"

Zeng Hanzhi was losing his temper when suddenly a sailor on board reported: "Six unidentified ships have appeared on the left rear side of the fleet, and they are outflanking, and it seems that they have sailed out of the huge reef that our fleet has just bypassed." ”

"What is the identity of the ship?"

"They have raised their banner! They are the sailors of Dengzhou Mansion!"

"Sailor?!" Zeng Hanzhi asked, "What are they doing here, aren't they all already tied?"

"Who is the leader of the Naval Division?"

"I got acquainted, it was Yao Wuhong, the general of the fourth formation. ”

"Well, wait for their ship to approach, signal them and ask them to let them go!"

"Yes, helper. ”

The three people who came to report the news said in unison: "Gang Master, the sailor has never been so close to our merchant ship before, but this time it is different from the past, I am afraid that there will be fraud." ”

Zeng Hanzhi saw that the six warships of the Dengzhou Navy Division had been surrounded in a fan shape and cut off their escape route to the open sea, and he also faintly felt that it was inappropriate, but looking at the situation on both sides, if he did not stop the ship for inspection according to the requirements of the Navy Division, once the cannon was fired at close range, his own sea ships would not turn well, and he would suffer a great loss.

Moreover, the general of the Navy Division is Yao Wuhong of the fourth formation, and the two sides have always had contacts with each other, and they also received a bribe of 10,000 taels of silver from their Giant Whale Gang last month.

After a while, the sailors on the yacht of the forward battalion of the fleet came back and reported: "The sailor has asked us to stop the ship for inspection, and it seems that the ship is about to be arrested." Helper, should we be on guard?"

Before Zeng Hanzhi could answer the sailor, the three people standing in front of him persuaded him: "Master Zeng, while they have not yet closed the siege, it is still too late to turn around and return home." ”

"It's too late!" Zeng Hanzhi sighed: "If you turn around and go back, the direction of the water and wind will be reversed." How can a ship of our size be faster than a naval warship?"

Zeng Hanzhi ordered: "Drop the sails and drop anchor!

The Giant Whale Gang gave the order to aim several guns on the bow and stern of the ship at the approaching Dengzhou Naval Division, and the gunners on the side also opened the baffles of the gun emplacements, revealing the muzzles of Sensen, ready to meet at any time.

One of the fighting ships in the sailor's fleet sailed over, only a stone's throw away from Zeng Han's main ship, and the fighting ships were full of torches, illuminating the ship.

Zeng Hanzhi looked over, only to see Yao Wuhong, the general of the Dingyuan Naval Division, standing on the high platform on the left side of the boat, looking at him from a distance, and there were two people standing beside Yao Wuhong, one of them had a wide jaw, big eyes, and a brave expression, and the other was a middle-aged man with a wooden expression and a frosty face, with a thin and tall body like a bamboo pole, and his muscles and flesh were as hard and powerful as iron cast copper.

I only heard Yao Wuhong shouting in the air: "I am Yao Wuhong, the general of Dingyuan of the Navy, and I am ordered to patrol this sea area, and ask the owner of the ship to show his identity." ”

Zeng Hanzhi saw that he was the same as usual, his tone was normal, full of energy, and there was nothing abnormal, and his suspicion in his heart was reduced by a few points, so he was also full of true qi, and replied: "General Yao, I am the giant whale to help Zeng Hanzhi, and I went to the state mansion a month ago, and I didn't expect to see you again so soon." ”

Yao Wuhong laughed and said, "It turned out to be Deputy Gang Leader Zeng, please forgive me for being clumsy and not recognizing it." Where are the Giant Whale Gang going?" Yao Wuhong still didn't know about Zeng Hanzhi's promotion to gang leader, or was he commensurate with his previous deputy position.

Zeng Han said: "We are going to Mingyue Bay, because of the storm on the way, the fleet has been delayed at sea for a long time, and please General Yao raise his noble hand and let us go, the Giant Whale Gang is grateful." ”

Yao Wuhong said: "This matter is easy to do, but I also ask Brother Zeng to do me a favor, let us get on your ship for a routine inspection, just check one ship, and ask the giant whale to help make it convenient, and let my brother and I have a good relationship." ”

Seeing this, Zeng Hanzhi was still hesitating, and Yao Wuhong said again: "Deputy Gang Leader Zeng, we will only go up to more than ten people, and we will not delay you for a lot of time." ”

"Okay. Zeng Han said that there was nothing special abnormal in the surrounding environment, so he agreed.

Yao Wuhong, together with the two generals beside him, plus more than a dozen officers and soldiers of the naval division, got off the fighting ship, boarded the yacht, and came to the main ship held by Zeng Han.
