Daming pirates

After the disaster on Treasure Island, the stockade that had just begun to look like a decent village became devastated. Houses were burned down one after another, and the wood used as support was stuck there blackly, which made people feel a little bit sad when they looked at it.

Sadly.

At this moment, they lost several people, including Ma Lian, and injured a few more, causing their strength to temporarily suffer a considerable loss.

But the better thing is that this time their losses were not in vain. Although they burned some houses and lost a few men, they killed all the people Zhou Cheng brought and captured seventeen of Zhou Cheng's men.

In addition, Zhou Cheng's ship was also captured, giving them another usable ship.

Yu Xiaotian made a total calculation, and now including the stolen sand boat and their original small fishing boat, they already have four boats and their manpower has increased to nearly sixty people. As long as they can use these people for their own use

, then his strength has more than doubled compared to when he first entered the sea, so the attack on Treasure Island this time can be regarded as a blessing and a curse for him.

Although Ma Lian's death is an irreparable loss for them, Sea Wolf, to a certain extent, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Xiao Tian.

As the second boss, Ma Lian has a high prestige among people from Xiaohuangdao. This kind of prestige is always a hidden danger for Xiaotian. Many times, Yu Xiaotian has to take Ma Lian into consideration.

Although Ma Lian has always been supportive of him during this period, it has to be said that his existence has always been a constraint for Xiaotian.

Now that Ma Lian is dead, among the old people, Liu Laoliu has the highest prestige, while Madman Meng is short-sighted, Li Gouzi is timid, Zhao Mazi is mainly responsible for external liaison, and Liu Laoliu is his most important person to Yu Xiaotian.

Fans, none of the other old guys have the ability to challenge Yu Xiaotian

In this way, without Ma Lian, everyone in Xiaohuang Island has lost a backbone. In the following days, they can only rely on Xiaotian's side wholeheartedly and serve Xiaotian as their master.

Xiaotian had completely taken control of this group of people.

For him, who was just starting out, this bad thing turned into a good thing. He could decide his future affairs more freely without having to worry too much about Ma Lian's thoughts.

Yu Xiaotian secretly considered this incident and thought to himself that this incident was not a bad thing for him, but he could only keep this thought deep in his heart and could not say it to anyone.

Just when everyone thought that this matter was over, Yu Xiaotian planned to rebuild the houses on Treasure Island, but Yu Xiaotian did not think so. Instead, he ordered not to consider repairing the houses for the time being, leaving some people to take care of the houses.

The quarantined prisoners carefully selected more than 20 capable people to simply tidy up Zhou Cheng's boat, briefly repaired the cracks in the hull, and then emptied the water in the cabin.

, he boarded the boat and sailed out to sea, heading north.

Also going out to sea with the ship was Meng Fei, who had a black spot on his face. Now everyone calls him Grimace, but Meng Fei didn't care about this name. Anyway, he has been doing this for the black spot on his face since he was a child.

I'm used to being laughed at.

From Yu Xiaotian's point of view, this matter did not end with Zhou Cheng's death. Since Zhou Cheng was in the first grade of junior high school, he could not be blamed for his surname being in the fifteenth grade.

In Zhou Cheng's lair, there were still twenty or thirty men, including Zhou Cheng's wives and concubines, some of the meat tickets they had kidnapped on the shore, and some of their men.

For Yu Xiaotian, these people and things must be obtained as soon as possible. If Zhou Chang does not go back for a long time, these people will soon disperse with their belongings, so Yu Xiaotian will never let it go.

With the idea, he took people on board the ship and rushed to Zhou Cheng's lair.

The condition of Zhou Cheng's ship is much worse than that of theirs. The ship is also older and has suffered considerable damage. The bow has been newly replaced and the hull strength is average. This time in the Jin Dynasty,

During the Battle of Yindao, Yu Xiaotian was hit by a boat. A crack was created behind the middle part of the left side of the hull, and a large amount of water entered the hull.

Originally, this boat could no longer be used without careful repair, but Yu Xiaotian decided to take a risk and took the people out to sea on this boat for no other reason than to use this boat.

A boat came to catch the people in Zhou Cheng's lair by surprise.

After interrogation, Yu Xiaotian learned that Zhou Cheng did not place his base on a nearby island, but chose a small village called Donghai on the east coast of Haitan Island as their place to stay.

Haitan Island is very large, with an area of ​​300 square kilometers. Although in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the residents of the island were moved inward, causing all industries on the island to be destroyed, and Haitan Island became a paradise for Japanese pirates. However, over the years, Japanese pirates have been under the influence of the imperial court.

Under the blow, the sun gradually sets on the west mountain

, the threat to China's coast has also been greatly reduced. The Fujian government has gradually relaxed its precautions in the coastal area, so some people secretly returned to Haitan Island to settle down. It has also become a hiding place for many small groups of pirates.

den.

Some pirates pretended to be ordinary fishermen and fished at sea, but secretly they were pirates. They often went out to sea to rob ships, and even went to land to carry out harassment. However, Zhou Cheng and his group were entrenched in the Donghai Village area, pretending to be ordinary fishermen.

Using his identity as a cover, he was engaged in pirate business.

After Grimace Meng Fei surrendered to Yu Xiaotian, he told Yu Xiaotian everything he knew, allowing Yu Xiaotian to understand the details of Zhou Cheng's lair, so he could not wait to take him with him.

People rushed to Donghai Village, Zhou Cheng's hometown.

Donghai Village is a small village. In the past few years, ten or twenty families of fishermen have gathered in this area to make a living by fishing and farming. However, in the past year or so, since Zhou Cheng brought people here, Donghai Village has been

Zhou Cheng took complete control.

The original fishermen in the village were forced by Zhou Cheng to become his vassals. Not only did they have to pay tribute to Zhou Cheng, but their personal freedom was also controlled by Zhou Cheng.

Cheng ranged from beatings in mild cases to killing in severe cases, so that when the villagers mentioned Zhou Cheng, they all secretly gritted their teeth, but did not dare to disobey him at all.

When Zhou Cheng went on a hunting trip, he, like others, would not go out in full force. In his lair, there were also some tribesmen who stayed behind to look after the house.

This time Zhou Cheng and his men failed to attack Treasure Island, and instead the whole army was wiped out. However, the people in his lair did not suffer any losses. Although they were not many in number, if Yu Xiaotian came to attack them in a big way,

once

If Zhou Cheng's subordinates who stayed here forced the villagers of Donghai Village to resist, Yu Xiaotian's strength might not be able to capture them easily, so Yu Xiaotian came up with the idea of ​​using Zhou Cheng's broken ship.

The idea of ​​​​attacking his lair.

Fortunately, Liu Laoliu, an old sea wolf, has a relatively deep understanding of the weather at sea. Before going out this time, Liu Laoliu carefully observed the weather conditions and determined that there would be no big storms and waves on the sea in the past few days. This was good for them.

This trip laid a better foundation.

After they went to sea, although the damage to the hull was simply repaired and the large cracks were blocked, some small cracks were not completely treated. Therefore, along the way, the bulkheads of the two damaged cabins of the ship were damaged.

Water was still seeping out, making everyone on the boat wary. They had to constantly check for cracks in the hull and use crude tools to fill the cracks along the way to prevent a large amount of water from entering the hull or disintegrating.

Fortunately, Treasure Island is not far from Donghai Village on Haitan Island. The straight-line distance is only about forty miles, and the sea is not very rough. Although the boat is badly damaged, I can still persist in making this trip.

After sailing for most of the day, in the evening, under the guidance of Meng Fei, they gradually sailed to the east coast of Haitan Island, and saw a small village on the shore of Haitan Island from a distance.

Donghai Village is very small, but a low wall has been erected around the village. People can be seen moving outside the village from a distance, and there is also a simple trestle on the seaside that is not long, which is obviously used for boats.

It is used for docking and disembarking. If you don’t know the details, almost no one knows that this is actually Zhou Cheng’s hometown.

When they saw Zhou Cheng's boat appearing on the seaside, people on the shore soon noticed its approach, so someone immediately shouted and walked towards the seaside, and walked onto the pier to greet it.

their posture.

"Helmsman, you see, the guy in the front is the one in red. He is Zhou Cheng's adopted son, his name is Zhou Li, and he is nicknamed Sea Snake, for no other reason than this guy.

Cruel and cruel, more poisonous than a sea snake!

But usually this guy is very good at pleasing Zhou Cheng, so he is highly regarded by Zhou Cheng. We usually have to listen to his instructions. This guy does a lot of immoral things in Donghai Village! Usually if Zhou Cheng leads

When the ship goes out to sea, this guy will be asked to stay at home! Just don’t worry about this guy!

Sometimes when Zhou Cheng couldn't come out, he would be asked to take people out to sea, and he was almost our second-in-command!

Don't be careless about this guy when it comes to the helm. It is said that this guy once studied under a master in his early years and learned a good swordsmanship. His skills are quite good. Several masters who guarded the ship have fallen into his hands. It is very difficult to deal with them.

It’s a prick in the hand, so be careful with this guy on the tiller soon! As long as you can let this guy go, everyone else will be fine!”

Looking at the people coming to the shore from a distance, Meng Fei stood next to the mast, pointed at one of them and said to Yu Xiaotian beside him.

Yu Xiaotian hid behind the sail, quietly looked at the shore, and silently waved to everyone on the ship. Everyone on the ship immediately turned their backs, avoiding the sight of everyone on the shore.

"Meng Fei! You try to trick that guy into boarding the ship, and deal with him first. If you do well this time, Yu will not treat you badly after you go back!" Yu Xiaotian said to Meng Fei.

Meng Fei nodded quickly and said: "Don't worry, Helmsman. This guy has often tricked us men. We all hate him so much that we can gnash our teeth. If Helmsman can kill this guy, it will be a blessing to us people."

Take it out!

Please don’t expose the secret for a while, brothers, I’ll come forward to trick that guy and kill him first!”

The ship slowly moved towards the shore. When it was still seven or eight meters away from the shore, the ship dropped its sails and stopped. The ship's hull was pressed against a simple small trestle and stopped next to the trestle. A stone anchor plopped.

Fell into the sea.

The man in red stood on the trestle, watched the boat stop, looked up at the boat, frowned, and shouted: "Ghost face! How did this boat end up like this? Where is my adoptive father?

?Why don’t you see our leader?”

Meng Fei threw a rope onto the trestle with all his strength, and asked a few people on the trestle to catch it. He fixed the boat next to the trestle, and then he lay on the bow and shouted: "Brother Li, the boss is injured! Let's go out and meet him this time."

We had a hard idea, but the boss accidentally got hit by an arrow. Fortunately, we were walking fast, so we managed to get back. The boss is still lying on the boat right now! Brother Li, hurry up and take a look!"

Zhou Li had already seen the bruises on the hull, as well as the mottled bullet holes on the hull and the broken arrow shafts. He could tell at a glance that the ship must have encountered a hard hit this time when it went to sea. He followed fiercely.

They had a hand in hand with each other, and the one talking to him at the side of the ship was Meng Fei, their subordinate, so there was no suspicion.

Hearing that Meng Fei said that Zhou Cheng was injured, Zhou Li suddenly became nervous. Without saying anything, he stepped on the gangplank put down on the ship and walked towards the ship.

(The number of collections is still a little far from what was expected, so today I still want to ask all new friends to help collect! In addition, I would also like to thank the friends of Iron Hand for their generous rewards, thank you very much!)
