Chapter 117: The Rebellion of Fujian (4)
Chapter 117: The Rebellion of Fujian (4)
The waves rush and the tide whimpers.
Shi Lang really hoped that these thieves would come back and kill him, so that they could drag on for a while.
It's a pity, no matter how he yells, those thieves can't hear it, seeing that the three lucky boats are about to leave, Shi Lang used all his strength to push a small boat into the sea, with a penny, an oar, and a knife rushed into the sea without hesitation.
In the dark night, the lucky boat did not dare to act on Meng Lang, and raised a small sail to guide the crosswind to slowly wander into the depths of the sea.
In this battle, 19 people were killed, 63 people were wounded, and 2 people were missing.
The people killed in the war may not all be killed by Zheng Zhilong's subordinates, and the missing ones may not be caused by Zheng Zhilong's subordinates.
When Han Lingshan was counting the number of people, after listening to the report of the old thief in Yushan, he roughly understood the cause and effect of the matter.
When these people learned that the target of the assassination was Zheng Zhilong, some were timid, some secretly hesitated, and some even wanted to report the news.
The old thieves in Yushan have led stragglers and rabbles for many years, and naturally they have their own set of methods for controlling people.
They don't have enough brains, so the methods they can use are simple and straightforward - if they find someone hesitating, they will immediately kill them.
For this reason, those who died in battle died in battle, and there would be no compensation, but on the contrary, the wounded received more rewards, and this was the only mercy that the old thieves of Yushan showed to these people.
The ship came to the sea with a bump, and at this time, there was also a hint of fish belly white on the sea level.
Where there is the sun, there is direction.
The captains of the three ships hung up the full sails at the first time, and under the blowing of the sea breeze, the lucky ships soared like sharp arrows in the direction of the sun.
Shi Lang rowed desperately in the boat to catch up, no matter how hard he tried, he could only watch the three boats go farther and farther away in the dark night.
At dawn, he sat sluggishly on a small boat, and in his field of vision, only the shadow of the sail was slowly disappearing into the sun.
Until now, he only knew that those three ships were lucky ships, and he didn't know anything about what was different from the rest of the lucky ships.
An official is dead.
From the beginning of the explosion, Shi Lang knew that Yiguan was dead.
Before the explosion, he also went in to report to an official - it was peaceful!
Shortly after it came out, the explosion began.
And at that time, it was the time when Yiguan offered a glass of wine to his brother, hoping that his brother in heaven would bless the Zheng family with safety.
Shi Lang fell on his back on the boat, guilt, exhaustion, and loss filled his chest with all kinds of negative emotions.
Compared with these negative emotions, the frustration on the battlefield completely shattered Shi Lang's self-confidence.
In the past, he thought that at sea, he would not be afraid of anyone, even the Dutch, and he could face it fearlessly.
Last night, he failed, and he failed miserably.
If it weren't for the fact that it was dark and covered by the waves, Shi Lang understood that he would not have survived.
He has always thought that he is superior in martial arts and extremely brave, but last night, the man in black, who was not tall, completely made him understand what real bravery is.
With a single face-to-face effort, he would have been defeated, and if it weren't for the cushion of his hand when he took the final blow of the enemy, he believed, the knee would have been enough to break his neck.
Now, the reason why Shi Lang felt ashamed was entirely because he couldn't tell whether he was knocked unconscious by the enemy, or whether he deliberately pretended to be unconscious because he was frightened.
If he was knocked unconscious, then he should not have the image of this army of men in black sweeping the beach in his mind, let alone the scene of Zhang Wang's defeat in battle with the enemy with a saber, and finally being blinded in the eyes, and fighting back.
One official died, all the guards died, and he was left alone...... It is a shame to live like this, which is worse than dying in battle.
Eighteen Zhi can't go back.
A small sailboat came into his sight, perhaps because his little boat was too far from the shore, or maybe it was because it was missing such a small sampan, and someone hooked his small boat with a hook.
A strong man stands in the bow of the boat from his crotch. There was a burst of fishy smell, this smell Shi Lang is very familiar, as long as it is a person who has been going to sea for a long time, it is this smell.
The strong man threw down a wooden plank from the small sailboat and signaled that Shi Lang could swim ashore with the plank.
Shi Lang lifted the penny on the boat, causing the boatmen on the boat to laugh.
Then, with lightning bolts, Shi Lang plunged the penny into the valley of the high boatman, just as he had done with the Assassins yesterday.
Shi Lang screamed and pushed the penny and the strong man out, but he grabbed the rope with both hands and climbed onto the small sailboat with a long knife in his mouth.
The boatmen were frightened by this ghostly man, and it wasn't until Shi Lang jumped on the sailboat that they remembered to resist, but unfortunately, Shi Lang, who was full of shame, hoped for a battle at this time.
This time, he was extremely involved in the battle, and wherever the sword light went, blood flashed!
When he came to his senses, the little sailboat was circling the sea.
And the deck was full of corpses.
He scooped out a spoonful of water from the barrel of water, sniffed it, and fortunately, the water had not deteriorated, and there were no insects in the water, and after drinking half a bucket of water, he began to clean the little sailboat.
The sea was too hot for the corpses to linger long, so he fixed the oars, arranged the sails, and let it continue to the east, and threw the mangled corpses into the sea.
The sailboat ran very fast, and Shi Lang didn't care if there would be any accidents on the ship, but just kept carrying the sea water from the sea to wash away the blackened bloodstains.
The sea washed away the blood very well, and in a few moments, the deck was clean.
He didn't dare to stop what he was doing, as long as he had a little free time, his mind would appear with a torn corpse and a desperate roar at the end.
The deck was scrubbed clean by him, and even the dirt that had accumulated in the past was washed very clean by him with seawater.
After a busy day, and most of the night, he fought against a strong enemy, rowed half the night, fought, and worked...... Finally, Shi Lang's legs weakened and he fell to his knees on the deck.
In front of you is the vast sea.
Shi Lang knelt on the deck and couldn't speak, but he sang with a crying voice......
"The sea is deep, and the cold is coming for forty days.
Assiduously, assiduously;
I want to die on my natal path, I want to come back again if my family is poor,
Again! ”
His voice was hoarse, and his singing voice was naturally not good, but it spread far and wide in the sea, attracting some white seagulls to fly up and down around his dilapidated little sailboat.
Yun Yang nibbled on a sweet potato and secretly looked at Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao sat under the persimmon tree, looking up at the persimmons on the tree that had turned red.
Yun Yang wanted to hand the sweet potato in his other hand to Yun Zhao, but he didn't dare to do so.
It had been a long time since he had clearly told Yun Zhao about asking for money, but if he didn't need money, the expenses of his Tongguan Legion were always insufficient, so he had to give Yun Zhao the habit of giving money when he saw sweet potatoes.
It looks good at the moment, at least, Yun Zhao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot when he saw the sweet potato in his hand.
That's right.
Yun Yang was actually very angry in his heart, obviously this guy was always very generous when he allocated money everywhere, but when he arrived in the army, he seemed very stingy.
Obviously he can give money for a year at a time, but he wants to give it on March 1.
It's not all about giving it once in March, only about eighty percent.
The military affairs department of the military personnel has never been in arrears, and there is no shortage of food and straw, but the expenses used in the army for drills, training, and promotion are always insufficient.
Because of this, he had quarreled with the people in the Military Affairs Department, quarreled with the people in the Government Affairs Department, and even complained to Yun Zhao, but not to give the army extra money, this seems to be the unanimous opinion of Lantian County.
If you want to say that the big guys look down on the soldiers, but the average salary of the soldiers is the highest in Lantian County, and the food on weekdays is also the first-class.
Yun Yang knew that this was a means to restrain the army.
Yunfu's old slave, Li Dingguo's unruly, Gao Jie's guy who is far away in the world is necessary to be fettered like this, Yun Yang doesn't think that as the commander of the Tongguan Legion, there is no need to be fettered by money.
Yun Zhao had two sweet potatoes in his hand, one medium and one small, the medium one represented ten thousand silver dollars, and the small one represented five thousand silver dollars, and Yun Yang was still hesitating to put another small one on it.
"It's the rule not to give you more money than the limit."
Yun Zhao didn't move the sweet potato, and glanced at Yun Yang lightly.
"The pants that the brothers train are frayed and fartful in the summer. The training is cool, but it's cold, and you can't fart anymore. Strand training is a shame on you. ”
"Why is it always this excuse, your regiment has two sets of regular uniforms and four sets of training uniforms in winter and summer a year, if it is still not enough to wear, I will ask your lieutenant whether he has embezzled everything distributed to the soldiers."
Yun Yang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "There is really no one who is corrupt, the military judge is staring at it." It's just that the money is not enough. ”
Yun Zhao sneered and said: "Four legions plus a legion that is about to take shape, just your Yun Yang spends the most money in a year, I know that you covet the weapon configuration of the Lei Heng Legion, I tell you clearly, the legions formed in the future will be stronger than one another." ”
Yun Yang angrily took the sweet potato that was placed in Yun Zhao's hand, took a bite and said, "Shouldn't good things be used by me, a housekeeper, first?" ”
Yun Zhao glanced at Yun Yang and said, "You won't be able to see your home for long." ”
Yun Yang sighed and said: "Don't be angry with me, I don't want new equipment, I don't want money, you don't send me out, let others watch the door, I really can't rest assured." ”
Yun Zhao smiled: "You, you can see this clearly. ”
As he spoke, he picked up the larger sweet potato and took a bite, and Yun Yang smiled happily.
"I have a lot of money recently, I can give you a little, just 10,000 silver dollars, and I can't give you the rest, there will be great changes in the land of Lingnan, we have to arrange it in advance."
If things go well, we will have a lot of money and food to invest in Lingnan. ”
Yun Yang nodded and said: "I know, I heard that Han Xiufen mixed well at sea, and Han Lingshan also went to Lingnan, it should be able to open up the situation in Lingnan, are you going to open up the sea route?" ”
Yun Zhao nodded and said: "Only by transporting troops by sea can we hide from the people of Jianzhou, Li Hongji, Zhang Bingzhong, and the Ming Dynasty!" ”
Yun Yang smiled: "You don't actually have to tell me these secrets. ”
Yun Zhao glanced at Yun Yang and said, "If you don't tell you the truth of the matter, you will compete endlessly with the navy for military spending in the future." ”
