Chapter 1228 A night that will be remembered forever

The red-haired Japanese's arrogance and domineering threats made all Akira angry, especially when there were three corpses of their compatriots lying in front of them.

However, they have guns in their hands, warships behind them, and cannons. These flesh and blood bodies alone cannot stop them at all. And there are old people, children, and women around me, what can I do?

At this time, Su Minggang, leaning on a cane, immediately came over to meet him. Behind him, Su Minglun and others were surrounding him, following his predecessor Kapitan. Seeing them coming forward, many people followed behind and crowded over.

From the other direction, Cheng Quan, leading his men, had already arrived and was cutting in diagonally.

The red-haired Japanese who came over immediately raised their guns when they saw him. In their hands, they already had flintlock guns, and of course, matchlocks. They automatically stood in several rows, squatting or standing in sections. The little boss next to him held up his command knife, with a little surprise in his eyes, but more of a ruthlessness.

"Stop, stop everyone. Anyone who dares to come over will die!"

Speaking fiercely, Su Minggang and others finally stopped. In fact, at this time, we were not far away from them, and we could speak normally without shouting while standing.

In the distance, more red-haired Japanese soldiers came hurriedly in formation. Apparently they saw the situation here and came to reinforce them. Some of them even pointed their guns at those who had just arrived.

After these days, they also realized that although these pirates were allies with them, they were still Ming people. They all came from the same country and would help the craftsmen. And these pirates carry knives, so the danger level is relatively high.

Facing more and more red-haired Japanese soldiers with live ammunition, Su Minggang turned his head and looked at the countless compatriots behind him. He saw that their faces showed anger, fear, despair... all kinds of expressions.

He turned back silently, looked at the red-haired Japanese officer in front of him and said, "Sir, three of our compatriots died. They were killed by you yesterday. According to our custom, we are just here to pay homage to them."

"We still want to survive. The Governor promised us that when we finish our work here, he will let us go back to our hometown." Su Minggang said sincerely, "Don't worry, we will do our best to complete Badawi." Asia's construction..."

Listening to his words of submission, the expressions of the red-haired devils across the street relaxed. Su Minggang continued to say: "We just want to go home, we don't want to die here. The old man has also seen the conflicts in the past few days. , understand what adults need. You see, this is good..."

Having said this, he took a few steps forward on crutches, but Su Minglun did not follow. This made the red-haired devils not pay attention. After all, he was just an old man who was about to die, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

After Su Minggang approached, he continued to say sincerely: "Don't you need women? Give me one more day, and I can persuade them. By then, they will be clean and ready to serve you all, but you also have to pay some money. Is this good? Stop using knives and guns, we don’t want to die here! "

The red-haired devils were a little surprised when they heard this. Then they looked at the three corpses placed in the distance, and they all suddenly realized it. They even laughed and started talking unscrupulously.

"These oriental monkeys are so mean, they won't give in until someone is killed!"

"It's quite sensible, not bad, not bad, there are many women here, we can finally have some fun!"

"These oriental monkeys have to kill a few of them from time to time to keep them docile!"

"..."

The leader of the red-haired devil pointed the command knife in his hand at Su Minggang and said: "Old man, you must keep your words. I will give you one day at most, otherwise I will hang you if you don't see the white-washed woman tomorrow." !”

The red-haired Japs started making trouble, and the low-level officers couldn't suppress it at all. Moreover, there were many low-level officers who were actually among those making trouble. Therefore, what Su Minggang proposed satisfied them all. After all, if they want to force it, they have seen the situation in the past few days. Moreover, they also find it objectionable if a woman is deliberately dirty. Of course they are happy if she can be cleaned first and serve them.

"Don't worry, sir. We just want to survive. I will definitely convince them, and I will definitely be able to serve you all tomorrow!" Su Minggang smiled and replied quickly.

The red-haired Japanese soldier put away his command knife, pointed at Su Minggang and shouted: "Okay, tomorrow at most, work now, no one is allowed to be lazy!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and pointed at Chengquan and the others and shouted loudly: "And you, if you forget your identity as an ally and dare to block the will of us Dutch next time, we don't mind having more coolies."

"How can we not? Our boss, Mr. Liu, has repeatedly told us that we must listen to you. We are here to supervise the work, so don't worry." Chengquan quickly smiled with him, completely succumbing to the will of the Dutch.

The red-haired Japanese were very satisfied when they saw it. They put away their guns and started to walk back in formation, talking to their friends.

"We can change the taste tomorrow, brothers, don't be polite tomorrow!"

"These oriental monkeys just need to be punished. A few of them must die before they become submissive!"

"If I had known this, I would have killed several of them from the beginning!"

"..."

The craftsmen looked at this situation silently, and they were all sad. At this moment, what I feel most is sadness and helplessness. Many women and children couldn't hold it back and cried.

Or if they heard their cries, the red-haired devils would turn around, point and point with a smile, and some would even whistle. Their happiness seemed particularly dazzling in Akito's sad atmosphere.

Su Minggang stood still, silently watching these red-haired devils go away, then slowly turned his head, looked at the sad faces, and said loudly: "Fellow folks, I believe you, go to work now, After dark, all men stay at home. I have something to explain. Don’t worry, you will not be wronged tonight. Forefathers and ancestors are on high. Mazu is watching. I, Su Minggang, will definitely keep my word. After today Late, if any of you are dissatisfied, I will pay you my life!"

Swearing on the ancestors and Mazu is a very heavy oath among the Ming people in Nanyang.

"Everyone believes in my uncle. After tonight, you will all laugh!" Su Minglun also said loudly, "Now, just listen to my uncle and go to work. We can't die anymore at this time; we still have to Come home alive!"

Several other leaders also said similar words, which surprised Akira. However, they couldn't figure out what kind of day tonight would be. After tonight, would they really be able to live a satisfactory life?

Believe it or not, life will always go on. Under the leadership of Su Minglun and others, those who have to work go to work one after another. For them, this is what they do day after day.

Watching the craftsmen disperse, the pirate who heard the words was very curious and asked Cheng Quandao: "Master, what does this mean? Is there anything special tonight?"

Chengquan looked at them and said with a heartfelt smile: "Brothers, if you follow me, my brother will never fail you. From tomorrow on, you will be able to live an upright life and return to your hometown in an honorable manner!"

When the pirates who were originally scattered around heard this, it was like a ten thousand enemy crashing into their midst. They all exploded and surrounded them, asking all kinds of questions.

"What? Master, what does this mean?"

"Master, what happened tonight? After tonight, can we really go back to our hometown, or will we be able to do so in an upright manner?"

"..."

These pirates either don't want to die outside, or they miss their relatives at home. If they can return to their hometowns openly, it can be said that this is the biggest wish of these down-and-out pirates who fled to Southeast Asia.

Chengquan understood the mood of his subordinates at this time very well, so he pressed his hands and said: "I don't know what will happen tonight. But you have to believe me, brother, you will know when the evening comes. No way. Well, I can return home in fine clothes! As for now, whatever I should do, I’ll just do it. I’ll know everything by the evening.”

Seeing what he said, his men had no choice but to work as supervisors first.

After such a commotion early in the morning, whether it was craftsmen, pirates, or red-haired devils, they all had their own thoughts and were full of expectations for the future.

For the red-haired devils, it is very simple. They are all looking forward to having fun tomorrow.

As for the craftsmen and their relatives, they are all fearful and hopeful, thinking about Mazu in their hearts, hoping that by night and tomorrow, they will be able to have another way of living as Su Minggang promised.

As for the pirates, they believed in their master, and each of them was guessing what would happen at night. The most common thing was that they wished it would get dark soon.

At least at this stage, the sun, moon, and stars were not affected by human will, and were running as they pleased. On this day, it finally slowly became dark.

After a hard day's work, the craftsmen dragged their exhausted bodies back to their residence. And Chengquan, watching the sunset, became excited, and immediately ordered: "Brothers, take the guys and follow me!"

When the pirates heard this, they were very curious. They didn't know what the master wanted to do.

Is this a good thing tonight? But what good can happen in Batavia? Rob those craftsmen? It seems impossible, and robbing those red-haired devils is even more impossible!

So, they followed Cheng Quan into the craftsmen's residence in a daze and walked inside. When the craftsmen who returned home saw these pirates passing by with their weapons, they didn't know why. However, the dazzling swords and guns made them somewhat nervous.

No matter how stupid you are, you will understand that tonight is definitely not an ordinary night!

Chengquan arrived at the door of Su Minggang's house and asked his men to guard the door. He just brought a few leaders into the yard with him.

At this time, there were several people in the yard, it was Su Minglun and the others.

Su Minggang seemed particularly excited at this time, and he looked much younger. In fact, he doesn't look old on the outside, it's just the hard years that make people grow old easily.

When he saw Cheng Quan coming over, he said excitedly: "The person has arrived. Mr. Cheng, you and Minglun go and pick him up."

When Cheng Quanyi heard this, he immediately became energetic and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay!"

There are no lights at all in Akito's residence. Once it gets dark, you can only rely on natural light. Fortunately, it was a full moon night, and under the bright moonlight, although we couldn't see the distance clearly, we could still identify the nearby places.

As a local snake, Su Minglun was naturally familiar with the roads. His steps were brisk and he felt like he was leading the way as if he wanted to run. Chengquan followed him, taking a few brothers with him, while the others stayed there and listened to Su Minggang's instructions.

This night is a special night. After this night, the red-haired devil will come to harm women. No one can sleep at night like this. A family may sit in the house and cry to each other, or the woman may be in the house and the man may be sitting at the door, hoping for a miracle to happen.

They remembered that Su Minggang said something would happen tonight. However, they saw Su Minglun and Master Cheng and others hurried past without finding them, which made them a little surprised. Although they could feel it, Su Minglun and the others were definitely doing something. However, they couldn't figure out what Su Mingguan would do to change their fate and make them satisfied tomorrow.

The night was getting darker and darker. I don’t know how long it had been. The people waiting in each house did not see any movement. As time went by, they all gradually became desperate. If this continues, how can fate change at dawn?

At this time, they suddenly heard movement. The footsteps of many people, although they were very gentle, there were too many footsteps, and the combined sound was loud.

People who were close turned to look at where the sound came from, only to see a long line of people walking quickly towards the residence. The person at the front was whispering: "Don't make any sound. The man is waiting at home, there will be a notification soon! "

Listening to the voice, they could tell that it was Su Minglun's voice, which they were all familiar with.

This was nothing, but when they saw Su Minglun behind him, they were all stunned as if they had seen a flying fairy from heaven. None of them could believe it. They rubbed their eyes and looked again. It was still the same as what they had seen before. They slapped themselves twice and it hurt. Although it was dark, it was not a dream!

Until the team passed in front of them, watching one after another pass by, they confirmed. Only then did they understand why Su Minggang said such things.

Some of them knelt down by the door, opened their arms, and welcomed them silently; while others, as if they were crazy, turned around and rushed into the room. The excitement in their hearts could not be suppressed, and they tried their best to He lowered his voice and said to his relatives: "The imperial army is coming... to save us!"
